Sean Clayton introduces the concept of “bending time” on his Daily Alchemy podcast, describing time as non-linear and circular. He explains a practice of applying loving energy from the present to past traumatic events (e.g., incarceration) to change their emotional charge, thereby altering present and future experience through hermetic principles and alchemical inner work.
Chapters
Welcome to the Science of Abundance Daily Alchemy podcast. I'm your host, Sean Clayton, and my story's pretty interesting. Went through a ton of trauma, former incarceration, suicide attempts, sexual abuse in my life. And one of the things that's happened in my life is I've actually used hermetic principles, alchemy, all these really cool tools that we hear and we talk about the Illuminati, whatever you want to call it, and develop practices in order to change and affect my lives differently. So within this podcast, I will be giving tidbits and bites for individuals to be able to bite into on a daily basis. That will allow you to take baby steps to change your life. But at some point, you'll find the door that starts to change the effect of how you show up on a daily basis. Thank you for joining me on another episode of Daily Alchemy. On this episode, we're going to talk about a fun one. This one's about bending time. So in the concept of bending time, it sounds a little bit crazy because we have this very. What I call simple understanding that time is linear. Time is not linear. Time moves in a curve. So we have different examples of this, like our watches and clocks. Everything is in a circle. And what that circle is a representation of is that there are infinite opportunities that aren't in a linear aspect of time. There is a center point that sits at the seat of consciousness that is constantly what I call spitting out. This moves into the law of karma or the law of cause and effect. But we have to remember is when we sit at the seat of cause and we understand that we are the creator, the creator is the cause, and we flip ourselves into the space of understanding that everything outside of us becomes the effect, then what we do is we end up looking forward and we end up looking backward and saying, how is the opportunity for me to sit at the seat of cause creating the effect of my life that is no longer linear, but it's in this quantum patterning, this matrix. Everything happens all at once. So I'm going to stop there again and remind us. Everything happens all at once. What we get trapped in is the straight line of saying, okay, if it happens to me now. And let's use a simple example of this. An example of this would be, I was indicted and went to federal prison. Because of that, there are only going to be limited things that I can do because that prison sentence has restricted me from having all the opportunities that most people would have. Now, if I use most linear timelines and Linear constructs. I'm going to constantly look back at that and say that's now a belief that I have that is keeping me in a limited aspect of self. If I decide I'm going to change that and I move into what I call bending time, what'll happen is I become whole now. And I look at my aspect of creatorship now and then what I do is that I basically spit out all of the effects outside of my life. One of those effects that happens outside of my life is the fact that the man that I am now created the sentence of me going to prison for me to become who I am now. And what I end up doing is I apply loving energy on that because one, there's nothing I can do about it. But there's also an aspect of how I start to change the emotions tied to it. If I change the emotions tied to it, then the feelings that I have associated with those emotions now start to actually change and create a different ripple effect associated with the law of mentalism or the thoughts that I have that now start to create a different future. So now in that aspect of the future, what I'm doing is I'm using my now to affect affect the past emotionally in a feeling way. This is where the bending time comes from because I'm basically applying a curve to that opportunity to say I'm now loving that moment differently instead of feeling in fear of that moment. We can apply this to any aspect of anything that's happened in our past. What that then does is it creates a ripple effect into my present moment. Now I automatically start to heal and become whole. The simplest way to describe this is that I am applying a loving energy over a curvature that allows me to sit at a different seat of consciousness where I can look back at any event that took place in my life and apply that loving energy into that space to then start to change the present moment of now. So I'm actually sitting at the seat of cause to constantly affect every moment in time from any perspective that it can be effective. Therefore, what's happening is that everything is starting to adjust itself from the moment that I live in now. And that the moment that I live in now is forever eternal. Therefore, I'm bending time to this moment. Instead of me being in relationship to those moments, it's the equivalent of going within. So if you understand the self love aspect of things, when you go within, everything outside of you changes. When you actually understand that you are at the seat of cause, everything outside of you starts to change. And when you understand that time is infinite and only now, everything outside of you starts to change. So when you can actually apply that loving energy onto the present moment of now, everything outside of you starts to change. And that's where this effect starts to happen much differently. And you start to use the law of mentalism, the law of correspondence, and the law of vibration in order to alchemize the world that you live in now. Because then it all happens from the inside out. I know this is a lot to unpack. Even the whole concept of bending time is challenging. But it all starts with now. It all starts from being able to alchemize from now. Being able to see time as no longer a linear construct, but something that is completely circular or that has a curve associated with it and the ability to move along that curve in the space of love. When we can see it that way, our lives will shift. And that is how we create this time alchemy, or time bending aspect of self. Thank you so much for tuning in and I love you.
