It is late Sunday afternoon; my column should have arrived on Marcia’s desk last Friday.
I wanted to write something that may help us see and understand how powerful and heroic we all are. Our act of heroism in choosing to be here at this unprecedented time of change not only affects our world as we know it but reverberates throughout our Universe and beyond, to universes that are far more ancient than ours and to universes far beyond our knowingness, and also to universes that are being created in this very moment of our present “now.”
We are the ones to cast the pebble, and the ripple effect creates the change we have all been collectively dreaming of.
It is not that we are going anywhere when you hear that we are in the time of Ascension or physically moving into the Fifth Dimension. Yes, we are, but it has nothing to do with what is happening outside of us; it is what is changing inside of us – it is always an inside job because the little space suit we have borrowed has a variable time warranty, no one is quite sure how long we can rent it, or how long we can use the brand name we give it such as John, Judy, Jerry or Jesus.
“I am not my body; I am free.” Few lessons in ACIM (A Course in Miracles) pose such a challenge to the ego’s framework as this one: every lie the ego tells, and every story it convinces us is true, rests on the premise that we are bodies, that bodies have limits and that we are subject to those limits. When we begin to remember what we know that we know, everything changes inside of us and is then reflected in the ‘New Earth’ or the new world we find ourselves living in.
I wanted to write in everyday words what Quantum Physics is attempting to say in mathematical terms, and my very limited brain has yet to see, grasp or understand this with my intellect. Still, my soul, my heart, and my intuitive nature remember. Even physicists feel there is a missing equation and will soon discover it is called ‘spirituality’… then the impossible will be made possible. We will live in a new and advanced reality once we grasp the concept of Spirituality, the missing link. I wanted to use a watered-down version of metaphysics, and in our somewhat normal linguistic patterns, to attempt to bring to us an awareness that the world we see is not real. It only exists in our mind, and it can change, personally change, collectively change, if we are ready to change our ‘mind’. To “see” with new eyes coming from a perception of awareness. This is when it is important to use your ‘heart’ brain and your intuitive nature to open yourself to a different way of seeing and hearing.
If you allow your inner ‘knowingness’ to blossom, everything changes. Knowledge is good, but it comes from others; knowingness comes from deep within you, the individual soul that you are, where you know what you know, and no one can take that away from you. You will only be able to “know” or “see” according to how open and aware you are in receiving… and in remembering “SELF.”
The world as we know it is currently being turned upside down, but know that all is perfect and (as we are prone to say) all is in Divine Order. It cannot be otherwise. We are in the middle of a worldwide purge, and often, when doing a purge, it may come out both ends, and it can be pretty messy and, often, not very pleasant. Once that ‘crap’ is no longer desired or believed to be no longer needed, such as, how can I ever forgive so and so, look at what he or she did to me or to my life, and you carried that around for decades, never thinking it may be time to put it down, examine it at a deep and aware level, and then let it all go as it is weakening you, causing you to be ‘dis’ eased, and you wonder why your immune system is the shits or why you have cancer, or whatever you called to your life – and you do your purge, perhaps doing what Lao-tzu and later Sophocles suggested – “An unexamined life is not worth living “ bite the bullet. It is time to take a good look at your life, and free yourself from dragging old baggage, old anger, and fear around – it does get heavier with the years, and it has never really served you.
Now, sit with yourself; examine your intent and purpose in everything you did or still do. When you let all that old ‘stuff’ go, you will feel lighter and energized, and your body will be restored and at ‘ease’. Perhaps you are now able to see your world with more clarity, with ‘new’ eyes. You no longer call in dis ‘ease’ to get your attention; your body is now at ease.
There are no ‘mis’ takes – remember, it is all a play, and we are the ones writing the script, oftentimes quite randomly, playing the main protagonist, choosing the venue, and also inviting the cast in – each playing an assigned role in pushing our buttons or teaching us to remember who we truly are. Not only do we write the script, but we are also the audience as well as the financial advisor, and often, we screw that one up, and we are not content with the budget we now find we have created for this major production of “Life 101.”
What often gets in the way, as we put on the performance of our life, is that we believe it is real, that we are being victimized, and people are out to make our lives difficult. We then begin to point fingers and attack the actors we vetted, and even though we gave them well-thought-out roles to play, now we believe we are victims of the world we see, and there is no ‘God’ who loves us unconditionally. We begin to believe the ancient saying:” Life is hard, then we die.” If that is the truth, what soul would be interested in jumping into the fray with blinders on and memory loss and attempting to live as a human attempting to be more humane? Remember, this is our life; we created it, and we can always rewrite the script.
The interesting thing here is that this is ‘our’ world, ‘our’ playground, and we are in ‘our’ chosen geographic location. There are no others who are attacking us or taking away our toys or holding us hostage, or having us experience life-threatening diseases or heartbreak over a loved one abandoning us or a beloved young child dying. Then we find our life at this moment is totally screwed up. “How can a so-called loving God do this to me?” “How can a loving God allow all these children, these people, these animals to suffer?” And on and on we go – not understanding that there truly are no “others” – this is our little individuated world, which only exists in our eyes. It is ‘me’ who created it.
What is going on here on our little planet we call Earth, Gaia, Mother, is organized chaos – similar to what is going on in ‘our’ universe as we know it living inside of us – organized chaos is destined to bring change at a deeper level to what we believe we see is real, and not part of our perception through the lens of our eyes which really sees everything upside down and our computerized brain seems to put it right with whatever perception we are prepared to see the world in a manner that works for us – individually and also as a collective.
I will conclude here as there is much to digest. The Mayans had a saying: “In Lak’ech: – you are my mirror, or I am you, and you are me. Basically, Quantum Entanglement in Mayan terms. We are ONE – there are no “others.”
Hafiz, the Persian Sufi Master, and Poet I believe said it best with this book dedication:
“To God’s Magnificent Masquerade as Us.” That makes us “all” God in drag.
Thank you for reading my words, and please know you are all loved unconditionally…
