You have to let it all go - all your attatchments to what you think and believe about reality. Let go of your gods, your dogmas, your belief programs, your logical reasoning, your religious indoctrinations, your educational indoctrinations, your media, political, scientific, economic environmental, medical indoctrinations, your self and peer influenced indoctrinations... even your spiritual indoctrinations.
You need to let it all go and move beyond the religion, beyond the science, beyond the new-age cult, beyond all the programs we've been conditioned to follow blindly - because they all come with parameters and you need to become limitless - you need to become limitless possibility again. Let go of all your knowledge and realize you know nothing of reality - then, from that place of nothingness, YOU can begin to create a reality of your own design... your own dream... your own illusion. The only thing you know for sure is that you don't know anything for sure. Admit this to yourself and allow yourself to be free to start on your own path of discovery, have your own adventure, create your own experience, choose your own perception, make your own rules, design your own boundaries, decide your own values, form your own beliefs, explore your own existence and draw your own conclusions. You may still be wrong about everything, but no wronger than anyone else, because they don't know anything for sure either. You are the creator, the God of your own universe. Start doing something with it, something positive for you, something that fills you with bliss and joy and wonder and awe - something worthy of your limitless potential... start playing with it, and have some fun with life.

I play music with a friend every Tuesday evening - been doing this for years now. He considers me to have "talent", while he says he has to work hard at it - not being a talent himself. Sometimes he gets together with other people to play and says then that it's a matter of "exercising the right of non-talented musicians to still play music".
I understand this because I know a lot of people who would love to play music but don't think they're allowed to because they can't play well - as if they need permission or approval from someone else to do what they feel like doing, for fear of being judged. What WOULD people think of them? This is one of those peculiar human traits we carry in us that cause us to censure ourselves continually, denying ourselves great pleasures and discoveries because of some contitioned sense of shame that we might offend the feelings of others. And by judging others in the same way, we suppress their freedom in being themselves too. What a mess! Who thought this one up? This all came to mind this morning while I browsed Facebook. An ex-colleague of mine from a school where I used to work has "come out"... admitted she is a "secret writer", and let it be known to all her friends that she publishes a blog. And I know how she feels - I went through the same feelings as she when I first started writing online ( a few years ago now)... don't tell anyone you know, I mean... what WILL they think of me? Why do we feel it as a "coming out"? Why should we have to "come out" of anything? - especially among our friends where you should feel comfortable to be who you are without their judgement. And why do we even care to judge even our friends about anything they want to do? We have to stop judging people like this. We have to stop caring what other people think of us. We have to learn to BE who WE want to be, and DO what WE want to do. Because if we can't even do this within our community of friends and aquaintances then we've all got a long way to go before we learn to accept and respect the sovereignity and freedom of the rest of mankind to be and do as they wish. By the way, I also write on a blog, I play music, I meditate, I'm into spirituality, I believe in aliens... and I smoke. There, I said it, it's out, and I dont care what you think! There are stories out there about the reality of this universe that are "SOoo out there" that most people can't even consider them let alone accept them.
Stories of galactical battles between rival alien races with all their particular agendas; of angels and demons locked in a never ending conflict between good and evil; of ancient satanic bloodlines and secret societies that have ruled the earth since eons past and are still operating today; of vampiric energy-guzzling reptilians; advanced (alien) civilizations in great cities in the centre of the "hollow" earth; space-ship artificial moons; devious programs of manipulation, war, propaganda and nano-weapon technology used against us to dumb us down, make us sick, decrease the population and hold us in a lie of constant, unending trauma and fear. The grand prize at the heart of all these stories is "complete enslavement and control of the human masses. Ever get the feeling that everything is against you? Yep! - you and most of the rest of the world. It's coming more and more to light that everything we've ever been told about "life, the universe and everything" is quite possibly a deception. I admit - I am one of those people who cannot deny these stories as fantasy. Conspiracy theories have too often been proved to be more than "theories". And somewhere, in my heart, in my gut, in my intuition, ever since the ripe young age of 5, I've had this feeling that the "conventional" story was somehow... wrongeddy-wrong-wrong. I'm not particularly gullible, I understand the limits of my knowledge, but I don't believe something just because everyone else says it's true. The trouble is that there are so many stories out there, many conflicting, most of them scary in one way or another, all of them limiting in one way or another... I just don't know anymore if I can trust ANY of it to be true anymore. So I'm apt to come to the conclusion that I actually don't know anything for sure. And rather than be dissapointed by this, I find it actually very liberating. When I was 14 years old I read "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" by Richard Bach, and I "got it!" No-one else I knew understood what there was to "get". A few years later I read Bach's "Illusions", and that became the basis of all my beliefs about this universe and this life... it's all illusion, there are no limitations, and "everyone is free to do anything they want to do". All these years later it still stands. My own experiences and observations, information and insights I've been drawn to over the years, the findings and conclusions of broader-minded experts in science, biology, quantum physics, spirituality and philosophy, and even a number of zealous and fearless conspiracy theorists and whistle-blowers, have all supported my beliefs. But still my greatest source of truth is my own inner-wisdom, my intuition. I cannot doubt my essential being as spirit-consciousness. I cannot doubt I'm guided by a highr self. I cannot doubt my connection to source-consciousness and thus everything and everyone in all of creation, in this universe or another, in this dimension or another. And that does it for me. That makes things so simple, so utterly perfect and beautiful, so playful. Quantum physics tells of the wave-particle aspect of physical reality and concludes that physical matter doesn't actually exist but is manifested out of a field of limitless potential and intelligence. Philosophers and scientists alike are talking of the holographic nature of this universe in which every "part" contains the same information as the "whole". Epigenetics teaches us that our perceptions and our beliefs control our genes and can even influence our DNA. Government and military whistleblowers are reporting on deeply silenced interactions between humans and other-dimensional aliens. Psychics, channelers, OBE and NDE experiencers are sharing knowledge from multidimensional beings that tell of our own multidimensionality and an ascension into a higher dimension that's presently in progress. Historical researchers around the world are discovering more and more proof of advanced civilizations from our far far ancient past. The shamans of Hawaai have a healing tradition called "Ho Oponopono" in which you accept full responsibility for everything that is present in your life, good and bad, because they say the universe is not "out there" but inside you - that it's all your creation and therefore to heal another you have to heal yourself because everything IS you. And the Toltec teachings tell us that this is all a "dream", and we each are the dreamer of our own universe. There is a speaker I found on You Tube who I admire and holds the same perspective on life as I do. Her name is Sonia Barrett. In one workshop I heard her talk about not giving your power away to another, to take full responsibility for everything, even your pains and struggles. She says she "owns" her problems, her emotions, her decisions and choices - because, she says, all the universe she perceives is "her" universe. And that's what we all have remember - everyone is living in their own universe, everyone is the dreamer of their own dream. So take back control, fully, stop giving it away. It's your life, your identity, your journey, your story, "your" universe... own it! Imagine... You were born upon this earth into this body of yours, into this family, community, society of yours... but without the amnesia.
Even though you experience gravity, heat and cold, touch, light, sound etc., and even though you are still bound by the limitations of this 4-dimensional space-time physical-matter reality, you haven't however forgotten where you came from or who you really are. You remember signing on the dotted line to start your virtual-reality experience, or you remember going to sleep with the intent of having this lucid dream, or you remember listing your objectives when you agreed to descend from your spirit realm into this world to have your human experience. You are aware, from the moment of your birth, that you are an angel in human form... you might even remember your wings. Imagine now, as this angel, what your perspective would be on life, on the human drama, on love and hate and evil and fear, on society, on ego, on death, on education, work, health and sickness, money, rules and laws and authorities, emotions, the weather, beliefs and dogmas, religions, conflict and war, politics, wealth and poverty, cruelty and manipulation, competition, pensions, holidays, bills, weekends, passports, country borders, technology, history, science, the arts, vices, the media, food, exercise, coffee and cigarettes, relationships, freedom...... I imagine you would float and drift across this planet, through all these lives and stories being played out around you. I imagine you would observe everything with awe and wonder, free in heart and soul, impervious to manipulation, filled with love and compassion for everything and everyone within this masterpiece of creation. And I would imagine you would understand what's going on because you are aware that everyone is busy following their own divine objectives and having their own human experience, because everyone else is also an angel of "The IS", just like you - but they just don't remember... yet! Now imagine "pretending" to remember... can you feel the joy and freedom and limitlessness? We humans are supremely talented when it comes to making life difficult for ourselves... both globally and individually. If something is too simple we mistrust it, discard it as impossible or unrealistic. We defend our struggles like our lives depend on them... how's that for a paradox?
Why do we do this? Well, mostly because we have been conditioned to think this way, but not least because the "powers that be" who are running this world have an interest in keeping this belief in stand by creating ever more complications in our lives that we have to deal with. We are kept busy sorting out things and problems that shouldn't need to be there (and I'll deal with this in more depth in a later article), we are running around like crazy trying to keep up with a pace of life that we're told is normal when it's obviously NOT normal, and we go along with it as if we have no choice. Life is difficult, times are difficult, nothing comes easy!!! I've always thought that there must be a KEY, a very simple key to a very simple door, that when it's opened "all possibility" shines before you - and all of life's limitations and barriers and lies and illusory beliefs fade before the total glory of this light of "all possibility". I believe this key is already in everyone's possession, and I believe the way to find it is to truly understand that "there is no key... there is no door..." not outside you. YOU are the key and the door, and it is an illusory prison you hold yourself captive in. I ask you to do one thing - open your mind - ALL the way, as a short experiment - open your mind to the idea that you do not know or will possibly ever know the true nature of reality. All we can have is ideas about it, and beliefs about it that serve to give us a sense of purpose - and if we're lucky they might even bring us happiness and freedom and love (IF we're lucky... because mostly we choose to hold to the idea that life is difficult remember). But open your mind for a while to this idea that you do not know the true nature of reality. Now - mankinds most advanced level of science (at present), quantum physics, and all the most enlightened forms of spiritual teachings tell us basically the same thing about reality: that its essence is that of a field of limitless intelligence and limitless possibility - the "possible" only made "probable" by the act of observation. In other words - the focus of our consciousness, individual or collective, manifests what we experience as reality from that field where everything is possible. Read that again... "the focus of our consciousness, individual or collective, manifests what we experience as reality from that field where everything is possible". So - if everything is possible, then NOTHING is IMPOSSIBLE... right? It's that simple! Life is THAT simple. We are just making it appear to be difficult ( I say "we", but personally I'm doing a good job of making it very simple for myself thankyou... and it's not been that difficult!). Any resistance you may feel towards this idea is just a reminder that your mind is not yet open enough to accept it (which is not surprising given the extent of our conditioning and programming, from birth, to believe in limitations. So don't take it personally or beat yourself up about it - okay?). To make your life simple, even within a hectic world, you have to get past this inner resistance that is limiting you - take control, "own" your life. For a start, you can begin by taking it all less seriously, because in a reality where nothing is impossible, then "anything" is possible... even simplicity - and that's really all you have to remember. Around two years ago I started an experiment and began practising two "distinct" aspects of my essence as multidimensional spirit - They are:
1) Following my heart 2) Not worrying Through that continual intense practise I have come to trust completely in a higher force that is looking out for me, steering me to where I need to go, and supplying the things I need and desire on the way. It took me two years because I needed to experience this enough times in order to move beyond any doubt; though I still practise awarely on a daily basis because the habits of old life-long programming are stubborn beasts. Let me explain further: 1) Following my heart. I came to call this the Heart Path. People often say that you should follow your passion in order to live a free and authentic life. I've always had a problem with this because I never could say what my passion really was. Interests came and went, rose and fell like the swells of the ocean. Every next interest became "it!" Until the next thing came along. Passions can change with the wind, so I say "follow your impulse" - whatever your heart makes you feel you FEEL like doing and wherever it leads you to go. Doing this teaches you to listen better to your heart, to distinguish its message and guidance from the impulses of the ego-mind, and it teaches you to trust in the guidance you receive (if you do it with conviction and awareness). By following your heart in this way you can always be sure that you're doing what you most deeply want to do, and that it's you, not your conditioned mind, that's doing the wanting. 2) Not worrying, The only way to understand the utter futility of worrying is to consciously practise "not worrying". Worry is the name we give to a useful emotional trigger that awakens us to something that needs our attention - another "impulse". Beyond that initial impulse that got our attention the worry should be discarded - but oh how we love to cling to our worries and feed them with our fantasy - so much that they become almost prophetic. My brother had a saying; "What if you didn't worry about something, and it DID'NT happen?!" That about sums it up really - worrying in itself does not solve problems, if anything it gets in the way. But we are addicted to this emotion and it overwhelms us. The only way to overcome it is with practise - even to the point of setting yourself up with something to worry about and learning not to worry about it. Without all that disruptive negative energy in your heart and stomach that worrying manifests, there is instead peace and harmony - and in that frequency of peace and harmony problems get solved, often miraculously - and often they just de-manifest. This is something everyone should practise right at the start of any path to personal empowerment and enlightenment. Summing up, this is how I see it: Following your "heart-impulse" shows you just how free you are to live any life you want... and learning "not to worry" gives you the freedom to BE that free. I've decided I have freewill. Some people would say it's illusion, it's delusion... I don't care.
I've decided I have the freedom to believe I have freewill and to act accordingly. I have chosen to make all my decisions under the premise that I have freewill, and I accept the consequences of this choice - for there are always consequences. With this freewill I have chosen to explore my persona, look at every aspect of self, review all my beliefs and values, my emotional and psychological conditioning and habits, and research alternative perspectives on life, reality, humanity, religion, society, custom and culture, health and sickness, authority, history, conventional knowledge, and everything else that plays a role in my experience of "being". And it's all incredibly fascinating! I've come to the conclusion that there is so much we don't know, so much we are not being told, so much we are being told that is deceptive, that I've decided not to trust any information I receive, from any source, as unquestionable fact or truth anymore. I choose to believe what serves me, what empowers me, what liberates me and makes me happy. Yes, I could be deceiving myself too... but at least I'm happy! By doing this I have become free of the restrictive norms and values of my society, free of its expectations and judgements, free of the fears and worries it would load upon me, free of the game it plays with me, and free of any guilt associated therewith. I claim my freedom, I claim my freewill - my right to be my own unique and authentic expression of being, as a child of this earth and this universe - as a flower, a river, the wind, clouds and waves are free to express themselves. To conform to anything less would be using my freewill to surrender my freewill. I do not choose that. Who would? |
