New-Style thinking has been a term Patricia Sun has used for several decades to describe a new way to perceive using both the intuitive and logical sides of the brain. She believes we are a young species and are learning to mature both our right and left hemispheres of the brain to create whole brain thinking. |
When we learn to mature our logical (left brain) thinking we keep accurate awareness of facts. We can make judgments but not be judgmental. As the right brain matures our intuitive mind opens to inspiration, psychic connection and creativity that is not fear or anger driven. The combination of both hemispheres working together raising human awareness and results in integrity.
As integrity grows one becomes open to many different ways to look at a problem. Kindness and good will expand because one no long needs to be right all the time. Peace deeps, mind chatter diminishes, egos soften, and a new dimension of thinking is born. We listen closely to what others say and see issues on multiple levels. We are gentle with ourselves as we observe our old mind patterns surface. We observe them and let them go. Defensiveness and intolerance weaken. We realize that we can only change our own thinking. By our actions we might help others see in new ways and allow tolerance.
While rules are necessary they aren't as important because we know what is good. We can feel the goodness in others. We can look past their physical bodies and see the indwelling spirit. We listen to our bodies telling us to eat better or exercise more but are not bound by the rules of others. All life is respected.
Power over others drops away. Laughter comes easily in spite of all the dysfunction around us. Our spirit and body heal as our thinking heals. The mind, body, emotion and spirit connections integrate into a mature adult. The childlike curiosity we lost returns but with a mature awareness.
One realizes the educational system needs to balance both logical and intuitive thinking. In the United States our schools over emphasize the logical mind-creating imbalance. One does not have to become a vegetarian, give up material possessions, meditate, live in nature, believe in angels, or all the other ideas an immature mind wants us to believe. While meditating can help, walking in nature can help, eating healthy foods can help, none of these are absolutely necessary. Self-reflection and self-correction are helpful tools. Each person is unique so each path to a mature way of thinking will be different. Creating more rules only reflects Old-Style Thinking (OST). This is where many "new-agers" stumble. Many channeled messages I read are OST yet occasionally I do read messages that reflect mature thinking.
As one matures it becomes easier to assess what you read as OST or NST. We all make mis-takes. This is good because through our mis-takes we self correct. Perfection is an illusion of OST and can prevent maturity. Embrace your problems and learn from them. Look for new ways to solve problems with integrity and goodwill. Use common sense if someone tries to kill you, defend yourself or run. Don't just stand there. Speak up against injustice, abuse, torture, killing, and other negative energies. Create your own positive energies of love, empathy and creating new thoughts never thought before.
This is a very large topic and I am only scratching the surface. Past teachers like Buddha, Lao Tzu and Jesus pointed the way. Present teachers like Patricia Sun and Eckhart Tolle point the way. Listening to your spirit, allowing love and expansion point the way. Having an earnestness to open to inspiration and beauty point the way. This is the new way of thinking we crave and on an unconscious level know about already. Allow it to manifest in your life and we can create heaven on earth!
