Sometimes I get stuck in my internal conversations. Since I accepted the Alphabet Code as an interesting body of information, I turn to it to get another view on the meanings involved. Lately I wondered: what is more relevant: ‘proper’ motivation or just doing?
So I took out my Placement Grid and parsed out both words:
This post describes how I use it. I have not read or analysed the words yet.
I will simply describe every step of my process and take you along my journey.
Being very visually oriented, what strikes me first are the colors. Doing is a regular pattern of red and green, so first and second rail energies: being and doing (! haha) Motivation is also strikingly regular with blue red in the middle and green on both ends. Let’s look more closely at the cascade of meanings before we add this aspect, but I wanted to note my first thoughts.
DOING is a five letter word, from D (form) to G (essence). I, (awareness) is in the middle. The wholeness of the word is about form, how the laws of nature show up as your solid reality. Reality is actually created by doing!
The G (essence) at the end – in the place of energy – states that this doing is essential. The I, (awareness) – in the central position of seeing – tells us that awareness is crucial. Sidenote: C (seeing) is 3 and I (awareness) is 9, so 3 x 3 or seeing times seeing, meaning that awareness is realized when you see that you see. The O (boundary) in the second position (placement of being) is the 15th letter, so 5 x 3 (energy x seeing) or (seeing x energy). Interesting in this context. Being conscious about the numbers, the placements, and how they relate gives access to deeper levels of meaning. A limitless rabbit hole too, if you please.
All five letters read like Form bounded aware within essence.
Gosh, what does that even mean? I do not directly clock an exact meaning, yet my pattern seeking mind sees or projects some sense. This is for me the most fascinating conundrum of the alphabet code. Here I am directly confronted with the experience that I (= awareness!) either consciously or unconsciously create the choice to choose the information. And it strikes me that this is the IJKL sequence within the boundaries of my intelligence (= MNOP). What a quest, Q!
But let’s focus on DOING. Parsing out the meaning with similar words it could read like: It is all about the natural laws being bounded by awareness within essence. So the quality of my doing depends on my awareness of what is essential. In the doing I suppose. Now that does make sense doesn’t it? And – just as I wished – it makes me aware (haha) of what doing essentially is about: Doing the right thing. Sounds familiar right? And it nods to the last letter: the
Ƶ which means ‘right action’!
I could meditate on this for a while. Also, really trying to grok the quality of each single letter is very helpful. D is not simply form. As you can read on the card, a letter points to a whole cloud of related words. For practicality we singled out a label that would be simple and clear and true. But it is important to be aware (again! sigh) that it represents an essential quality that, depending the context, might be best represented by another description. My second take on DOING made much more sense to me. So do read the whole card (the letter D) for clarity.
OK, the quality of my doing depends on my awareness. Now how relevant is motivation in all this? Let’s take a look.
So a ten letter word, twice as long and, as observed, it contains blue letters.
The third blue ‘rail’ or tier is about applying your awareness and embodiment to your existence in this realm. The third rail goes from connecting (S) to right action (Ƶ). So these are different, more evolved energies. MOTIVATION depicts a beautiful symmetry in its appearance in the first image in this blog.
Its wholeness is about M, (movement) and it ends with N, (within) in the place of creation. Let’s look at M for a moment. Movement is the word we chose which stands for the movement according to the natural laws, producing the natural cycles the universe. It is the next tier from of D, as you can see in the overview below:
D (in red) evolves to M (green) evolves to V flow, (blue). All letters follow this pattern and it gives us another way to understand the interrelations between the meanings.
So MOTIVATION is all about the natural cycles and ends within (N) in the place of creation. The word balances on VA, in the centre of the word in the 5th and 6th place, so the flow of all that is. V, (flow) sits in the place of energy and A, (all that is) sits in the interrelational place. Let’s parse the whole thing out:
Movement bounded presence aware flow all that is presence aware boundary within…
So how would I (from my current awareness) make sense of this? Let’s try:
Moving the boundary of present awareness of the flow of all that is present awareness of the boundaries within. O, boundary stands for the limit of what can be seen and related to, as it is the practical application to F, interrelation. So O is the boundary of perception, the known, and as far as I can see.
T is in the place of seeing as well as in the place of eternity. And the I, aware is both on the form and the eternity. Presence as an eternal seeing, preceding awareness as a fundamental eternal aspect. So motivation contains a firm present awareness. Its movement is bounded and it is aware of the boundary within. Plus it hinges on the flow of all that is (VA). Gosh, let’s try and synthesize this.
OK. I am confused now.
It is bounded within… Awareness bounded within. The N is the most fascinating of all letters. It is the very middle of the alphabet code, and its meaning suggests that everything is within. So really deep this one! haha. What does that mean for the meaning of motivation? Motivation is some present awareness bounded within. The movement is also bounding the present awareness, yet the flow relates to all that is.
I think I need to sleep/meditate on this…
But for now let’s simplify this, before it breaks my brain. Let’s look at the word motive and see what that teaches us:
Now that feels more managable:
MOTIVE: movement bounded presence aware flow energy. The ‘present awareness’ is central and it is about moving the boundary of that present awareness and flowing the energy. So motivation is basically about moving your present awareness. Or in simple English: expanding the boundaries of your awareness so that the energy flows… Now that kinda makes sense.
OK, grokking AND comparing AND writing down all these considerations is quite exhausting, so for now I will wrap it up as far as I can see. Oh…
Motive and Motivation are about expanding your awareness, while doing is also about awareness, but is more… well, actionable by nature. Doing now feels more relevant than motivation. Which answers my original question.
I want to close with a short sentence for you to parse out and contemplate upon.
Let me know what you come up with. 🙂
