Spatial Awareness.
Have you ever had one of those times when you think that you are awake but in fact are still actually sleeping? A particular episode of this rare but intriguing experience comes to mind.
I was sitting in the front row of a hall and being addressed by an elderly gentleman with white hair and a short pointed beard. I heard the man saying that since time began, for thirteen point seven billion years approximately, every day two hundred and seventy five million stars are being born and dying. There is continuous astronomical motion, without intention as numerous objects collide, vast mixed areas of gases swirl and as proto matter for the new stars to form in the future. Some of the dust clusters together to form larger objects, that in time could become protoplanets. The Moon is proof to the perpetual bombardment of meteorites on its surface and at one time the Moon collided with Earth and is slowly moving away. At the same time the Moon’s gravity pull is slowing the spin of the Earth.
Four point five billion years ago the Earth formed and about three million years ago life was able to form without any specific direction except for survival. Life after a considerable long time developed the ability to exert its will on its surroundings and increase its chance of survival. An example of this is birds’ nests, beavers’ lodges, termite mounds, humans’ castles and now houses.
There are two distinct modes of being, that without intention and that with it. For example a man can make a chair that serves a purpose and is complete. However the Universe and life are in a continuous state of change.
I heard myself saying is the state of being, like a row of dominoes and the first one to fall is the prime action for being?
The gentleman with white hair replied. No. Even if the first domino could self initiate the first fall, it would have no more influence on resulting consequences than any of the other dominoes.
I noticed something odd about the white haired gentleman, somehow his features were being replaced by the bottom of my bedding and then he had completely dissipated.
