You, dear reader, are a wonderful being of light! You have come to Earth to participate in one of the most ambitious endeavors of creation ever performed.
the higher dimensions cannot be articulated with words. There is simply no language from our world that can possibly fully communicate the nature of the higher realms, the nature of our greater being, or even the nature of the incarnation process
Our language is based on our local assumptions, so it falls very short of being able to speak to “higher” reality which transcends our local system entirely.
The veil is an important and necessary part of the incarnation process. In order to actually be human and to have the full physical experience, we need to forget all of everything else that we are.
You plummet from an extremely high vibration to an extremely low vibration as you interface into the physical reality system.
Because the spirit is sovereign, the veil requires the individual’s acceptance for it to “take.” You have to “dive in” and commit to it, allow it to have power over you, in order to be “bound” to that physical experience for its duration.
After only a few months of beginning a consistent meditation practice, as I became increasingly familiar with the nature of my awareness itself, the memories began to unexpectedly but naturally return to me.
Important
individual exploration often takes place in discrete steps or by “new idea” and not necessarily as a comprehensive intellectual endeavor.
Important
The Dao De Qing opens with the words: “The Dao that can be spoken of is not the true Dao. The name that can be named is not the true name.” As soon as we put ideas to reality, we are automatically incorrect about its full nature. As soon as we open our mouth and say something about what is, we are limiting it. As soon as we give reality a structure, we have reduced it to the structure we have named. Thus, nothing written in this book is the Truth.
Wow
try to evaluate not just with your thinking mind but with your deeper being. Examine and test these words through your experience itself, and allow your own experience and intuition to be your guide.
Important
“A true spiritual teacher does not have anything to teach in the conventional sense of the word, does not have anything to give or add to you, such as new information, beliefs, or rules of conduct. The only function of such a teacher is to help you remove that which separates you from the truth of who you already are and what you already know in the depth of your being. The spiritual teacher is there to uncover and reveal to you that dimension of the inner depth that is also peace.” – Eckhart Tolle
Wow
Consciousness pre-exists. It just is. (099) Consciousness is the fundamental substrate of all existence. (150) It does not have a cause, a beginning, or an end.
Intent at the deepest levels of consciousness gives rise to reality systems.
Reality systems (universes) are like dreams within dreams within dreams, perspectives operating on a fractal scale of ever-increasing creative expression.
Interesting
The physical universe is an experience occurring within consciousness. (003) (008) (106) You are not “in” your body, your body is an experience happening within you.
Wow
Since consciousness is fundamental, change in consciousness-space precedes change in the physical world.
Important
Distance and linear time are not fundamental. Linear time is a local experience of sequence taking place within “higher” systems. All of those experiences of time take place within the depths of Now, the ever-present moment.
Important
We are always connected to all other reality systems. We never truly leave the higher realms to come to be on Earth. Metaphorically, we sleep in Heaven to have the dream of Earth.
Important
The ego is the part of the self that wishes to protect the self as the individual is having the alien experience of separation. The ego is not a separate thing, it is an internal structure that arises as a response to fear. The ego seeks to relieve the individual from fear by attempting to reclaim power that seems to have been lost (but in fact was never truly lost).
Important
There is no such thing as privacy; all information is known and remains accessible by spirit.
Important
Spirituality is not about believing something or doing something, but about evolving one’s consciousness and the nature of one’s being towards love.
Important
True accomplishment is not a matter of achieving some physical end, but of the expansion and actualization of love.
Important
In the case of our reality, consciousness does not arise from the physical reality (from a brain, for instance); rather, the physical reality and all the form within it only exists as an experience within that which already exists (consciousness).
Important
If these statements seem aloof and abstract, do not accept them! Rather, seek instead to simply discover for yourself if they are true or not. There are many ways to do so, and each is very personal and unique. But in general, meditation is a powerful first step:
Wow
“There is no coming to consciousness without pain. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own Soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.” – C.G. Jung
Important
Even when pain feels insurmountable and completely overwhelming, go into the storm. Even if you fear deeply that it will destroy you, plunge into the tsunami.
Important
through meditation one begins to get profound glimpses of a much larger truth: All that is taking place “outside” of us is in fact taking place “inside” of us!
Important
What is important is striving to have the truest quality of intent – meaning genuinely loving intent – in all the choices that I make. Put crudely but succinctly: Love is more important than knowledge.
Important
respect and uphold each person’s place and beliefs. The spirit will always work with each individual as they are ready, and the individual will always eventually utilize their actual experience to grow in their own way.
Important
True success goes much deeper, to matters of the being: to selflessness, to the conquering of fear, to creativity, to love.
Important
In order to properly excavate the gold mine of your experience, you need to surrender to it. Surrender to your experience itself, rather than to your ideas about it.
Important
“Big Truth” is not make believe and does not require your belief to exist. (Only your ego requires things to be a certain way.)
Important
When you are thinking, you are lost in a dream of form. When you are being, you just “are”: No distinctions are necessary, and all possibilities actually exist.
Important
True spirituality is the dwelling in what is real. It is not primarily adherence to ideas in the mind.
Important
We are here on Earth to develop the quality of our intent by being something within a context.
Important
From the divine perspective, what is important is not necessarily what we do but why we do it. Our deepest intent is what matters. And our deepest intent is always totally unobscured and plainly obvious to the spirit.
Important
You are not your thoughts, you are not your judgments, you are not your expectations, you are not your beliefs. You are not your responsibilities, you are not your abilities or disabilities, and you are not your pain. You are the awareness that beholds those things.
Important
You are immortal awareness that surpasses all form. That is not a metaphor or just an abstract concept – you actually surpass the entirety of your physical experience and all the form in it.
