The Great Discovery

All that ever happened in the past was meant to be, and it has brought us to this moment where all that is is fully accepted. It is only in the full acceptance of this moment that transformation can occur.

The interdependence, and thus unification, of all things becomes increasingly clear as one matures and lets go of self-image identifications. One steps back and notices how dependent the self-image of "atheists" is on the self-image of "believer in God." Without believers there would be no atheists, for an atheist defines himself as one who isn't a believer; and conversely, the believer defines himself as one who isn't a non-believer or atheist. The two self-images completely compliment each other and depend on each other for their very definition and existence. Yet one on either side of this heads or tails coin 99% of the time does not realize that, be it heads or tails, the coin itself is what has value. We can't expect to find a store that accepts only halves of coins.

The only way to transcend the blind limits of a self-image that would deny the very need for its opposite in order to exist is to step back and have a look at the relationship between the two. For like each plus having an equal minus in the force of electircity, the stronger one pulls on the tug of war in the name of God, the stronger another pulls on the rope in the name of atheism. Like the heart and the brain, the two cannot exist and function without the other.

The unifying device of the universe is awareness itself. It does not prefer one self-image over the other. It forgets choosing sides and enjoys the wealth of coins without conflict. The unifying theory that scientists have sought in order to explain the macrocosm and the quantum microcosm is simply awareness itself. It is what unifies. The present and fully here and now awareness is the half-way point between the infinite outer world and the infinite inner world. Awareness is what underlies all existence. The perfection of our clockwork solar system inside this perfectly flowing and harmonious galaxy of solar systems, the expansion and development of life into this perfect vehicle for awareness called "the human being" to experience itself as universe, all has not been a dead and lifeless series of win-the-lottery-type accidents. You are that intelligent, unifying force that has been present forever. Life itself is a paradox where seemingly inconsistent opposites are both true. There is destiny, and there is free will. There is eternity, and yet there is only now.

All that is was once whole. It is only in the mind that things are perceived as separate. Yet even the mind came out of this wholeness. Thus every human being innately remembers the completion and wholeness from which all things came. The next step in evolution is for you to choose to remember and identify with yourself as awareness, the unifier of all opposites. Every cause and effect are both the cause and effect of each other, for both cannot exist independently without the other. Yet this unification can never be realized without awareness. Awareness is the unifying force that holds this whole universe together.

The "great discovery" we've all been waiting for in order to save human kind and all life on Earth is the same force that develops as, and maintains, the universe. This great discovery is awareness itself, and TAG, you're it!!!!

Men Can Cry, Women Too

To our culture it is more acceptable to appear strong rather than weak. It follows that when one is hurt it is better to express this pain with anger rather than tears. However, the truth of weakness lies in the fact that only a weakling would feel the need to mask the pain by projecting an image of power through expressions of rage. The strength, then, is to be found in the security of being in the pain and not feeling that the pain need be expressed in any other way than naturally, with tears and a lower mood. The secure person isn't concerned about being perceived by society as weak for feeling and expressing personal hurt. This is natural living and because it contradicts influential societal expectations, it can also be considered heroic and brave.

From here on out, try and see the innocent infant child in everyone you meet. All people then easily appear as equals: all wanting love, safety, happiness, and joy. The people in our society who act the toughest, who pack on the most muscle, who shrug off war and murder as "necessary acts" that help with population control, people who get the most tatoos, ride motorcycles with the toughest crew, join the strongest gangs, and even end up in prison, all are really the tiny infants in need of the most love, which is the only source of true healing. The people among us who present themselves as the toughest are the most insecure, for the truly secure needn't put an ounce of energy into presenting any self-image to the world.

All of us have insecurities, fears, and past pains inside. Those who project any kind of image in order to protect themselves and deny their own insecurity are obviously the most insecure. These attempts are completely fruitless because their wish was to appear less vulnerable and insecure, yet every conscious being on Earth can spot their insecurity in their every movement and act and word. The more they try, the more obvious the scared little infant child in them becomes. The only way to continue pretending successfully is to remain around unconscious people. But the healing they are really needing, the love the infant craves, cannot be found amongst the unconscious.

It is the aware, who lack the need to project out a self-image, that become perfect mirrors to reflect back unconscious behavior to the unconscious people. One who is acting with all his might to present a certain self-image becomes completely obvious to himself only when in the presence of somebody who is being natural and free. This free being doesn't judge the non-free, and thus the non-free become aware of the potential to be free around those who are already free. This is the meaning of unconditional love. Being love, being peace, being natural is effortless. The infant knows how to do it well. All we must do is simply remember. Not a single person lacks the ability to simply be.

When and unconscous self-image projecting person is around other unconscious self-image projectors the result is that the game becomes "Who can project the best and most real self-image?" But any self-image is false to begin with. They can only appear to be real. They never are, for being is effortless, whereas projecting a self-image requires enough work to cause cancer, heart-attacks, and innumerable diseases such as depression and the sense of complete loneliness and isolation.

Relationships and Inward Solitude

Wars are faught when two sides agree that disagreeing is disagreeable. This agreement is another form of conformity and unity. It is when civilization has evolved to view disagreement as the only true way to peace and wisdom that all will profit from a level of life and worldly experience on this Earth that compares with the difference between the lives of those in Plato's cave and that of the quite sitting Buddha who knows.

We must remain in constant inward solitude, for this is the only reality. It is only ourself inside of ourselves. Nobody can ever join us there. The more we try to blend in and conform with the testaments of how the world is according to outward information the more we disconnect with our center and source and all powers granted by nature and the divine.

A healthy relationship is not one that would have one person or both attempting to win the other to his or her side. There is no side. The center is dimensionless. The harmonious relationship is one where disharmony is the goal in that disharmony is viewed as two that can never be outwardly one; yet can be one inwardly where only each one can know.

Disagreement must be found agreeable for this to work. Though two energies who truly do meet on the inward planes and vibrate each other to a higher pitch will most likely be much closer to the same experience of reality. Those whose energies do not vibrate inwardly in a harmonious fashion will most likely be in complete or near complete denial of the subjectivity of individual conscious experience of reality. These types of people are generally base souls (soul being used here to describe that which is aware and exists as experiencer) who have limited themselves early on from graduation to higher levels of conscious experience of a more true and absolute reality. Absolute reality underlies all experience. With age and wisdom comes the falling away of personalized fallacies clung to in the developing stages in order to defend against the insecurity of uncertainty.

This is why many who attempt to explain "true" reality as something they alone have access to and can give to others through their words are simply the least connected since true knowledge and connection with the absolute is only gotten to inwardly and by the road of solitude. It is only the individual that can embody virtue. Any who attempt to hand out this virtue are simply subtracting from ultimate virtue by pulling us away from virtue's only path.

Truly listen to others, and they will begin to develop the courage to truly listen to themselves. It is this encouragement that is the highest endeavor and creates the greatest good. For it is a society of people as strongly rooted and secure as Redwoods that becomes impossible to lead like cattle into battle. Peace on Earth requires that all men and all women retreat silently back to the self and in doing so, as the wise poet in India once said, "bannish the dream that sunders part from whole."

Here We Go!!!

This marks the first post since July last year. It's important to distinguish from the writing of last year and the writing of right now. The words from here on out are clear, and are coming from an almost completely different person. The awakening experience the universe was kind enough to bestow has allowed for a clarity and an understanding that surpasses what I have ever imagined in the past.

I will leave the past posts up and not delete them. They were the journey to understanding the depths of it All. They were a painful road toward enlightenment. But necessary none the less. The difference in their content and the content to come will be more than obvious to anybody who reads them. I've not looked over what was written back in July or the posts from before that. But I'm sure there is at least a little spark of truth in them. So, they may still have insights of import. However, what is to follow is an account coming from a completely clear and fully knowing being who has crossed over to the other side and discovered that both sides were one and were here all along. There will be apparent paradoxes in the minds of those who do not yet know. But I will attempt to explain these paradoxes (such as how there can be free will and destiny at the same time, and how there can be a one that is many and a many that is one) using the ever elusive symbolic language we use everyday. I hope your journey toward creating world peace becomes easier and more enjoyable as a result. Thank you and enjoy life.......
