God's Will
For the Personal Essence, on the other hand, intention has a
different meaning. It is related to the integration of essential
will. When this happens one realizes that one's actions must be
in harmony with all natural forces even on the level of Being;
otherwise there is a splitting from Being, and an incorrect action
will result. So instead of intention one experiences a spontaneous
flow of intelligent and purposeful action, realizing that Being
flows through one, as one, and it is the flow that determines
one's life, action, interests, creativity and so on... So there
is nothing in Being that is similar to the function of intention
of ego. One is so integrated into reality that it is reality that
is the source of one's actions. As the Personal Essence, one becomes
the spearhead of reality. Reality acts through one by one being
the individual manifestation of it. In religious language this
is called surrender to God's will, or flowing with the Tao. (The
Pearl Beyond Price, pg 173)
