Orin: Higher purpose is a stream of energy you join when you create something that serves humanity or your own spiritual evolution. With higher purpose you can choose every moment, knowing what to do with the hour, the day, and the week. It allows you to grow and evolve rapidly in this lifetime.

Everyone on earth has a higher purpose. You came to earth to be a part of a system of energy that deals with emotions, personality, and thoughts, that involves seeing what is inside of you reflected in the outside world.

Time moves more slowly here; it is literally slowed down so you can focus on certain things. Here your thoughts create and become reality; it could be said yours is a world of frozen thought. Because time on this plane is slow, you must practice economy of energy, and that is one of the reasons it may seem to take so long to create what you want.

If you focus on having something you can go straight to it with purpose. When I speak of higher purpose I am speaking of compacting time, speeding up the evolution of your soul, and raising your vibration. The more you live in purpose, the less you waste energy, and the faster you can go higher. Ultimately, higher purpose is spiritual evolution.

Your soul-purpose is to balance all of your energies, and harmonize your being with your soul's note. Each one of you has a soul sound, a note; and the more you can express it outward into the world through your voice and thoughts, the more you can create forms in the outer world that match your inner being. You will notice as you sound your soul's note, you begin breathing more deeply and rhythmically. You can start by letting sounds come out of your mouth, until you find a beautiful, comfortable sound. This will assist you in clearing your aura and raising your vibration, just to sound beautiful, comfortable notes.

Higher purpose is always
something you love

Go inward for a moment, feel your energy, and allow a picture, symbol, image, feeling, or word to come which represents your purpose here. What is your growth centering around in this lifetime? What have been your main challenges? What, in form, have you been wanting to create in your outer world?

In the next month, become more aware of your purpose. It is always playful and joyful. Higher purpose leads to the finer energies of life. Joy can exist in every moment if you are willing to live in purpose.

Manifesting higher purpose means believing in yourself, and believing in the goodness of the universe.

How would it feel if every cell of you acknowledged and was in touch with your higher purpose? Holding that purpose in your heart, you would refine your physical body, raise your thoughts upward and bring peace to your emotions. Part of the purpose of earth life is to bring in your higher self and join with your soul at all levels.

If you want to live in higher purpose, begin making it more of a commitment. How do you spend your time? Where do your thoughts go when you are alone? Learn to hold a higher focus, to spend time, when you have nothing better to do, thinking of why you are here and what you have to offer humanity. Purpose comes through serving the higher self, assisting others, and being willing to carry out whatever your vision is of the highest service you can offer. Think of something you can do next week, something specific. Be willing to acknowledge when you have done or created this, that you are now living in higher purpose.

PLAYSHEET
1. Imagine you are holding in your hands the highest purpose you came to create in this lifetime.

2. Bring it into your heart. Pour light into it.

3. Ask for guidance and assistance from the higher forces of the universe.

4. Every morning when you wake up, ask yourself what you can do today to carry out the next step of your higher purpose, and do it! Remember, it will be something you love and want to do.
