There are two types of competition. The first is competition based on having a reference point and wanting to transcend that reference point. This form of competition is inwardly focused and is about personal growth. For example, an Olympic athlete feeling successful when s/he transcends an old limitation of him/herself and has a new personal best. This is competing for advancement without competing with the other athletes.
The other form of competition is what I am referring to when I say "competition" in general. This is based on an outward focus and usually creates resistance and charged energy between individuals or groups of individuals and is the form of competition that is unhealthy.
There is no such thing as an "original thought". All the information that is and ever will be exists as part of Source. Pretending that you or I can have an original thought is just ego, which creates competition. It is simply an ego game that one can choose to play or not. Many aspects of Western culture work from a lie largely based on the concept of competition. The message is you have to compete or you will lose out. This is, of course, not true. The reality is there is more than enough for all. Competition is created by invalidation and wounds that limit energy awareness. If you pull the invalidation and limits off, the competition issue can begin to be healed.
