Diving Deep
Hello brothers and sisters. I hope you have found gratitude and smiles in your day. I wanted to use this post today to encourage free thought. A little journey in thinking and feeling outside of the “box”. This world seems to want to contain perspective within a box. Since we project our realities, it would appear that most on this planet see from this “box” perspective. I will start this journey telling you about a dream I had when I was a child.
At a very young age I had a dream that I will never forget, and it forever changed the way I see the world and universe as a whole. The dream started out as this world was a cell. My perspective was that this universe was contained in a body of trillions of cells. I had the ability to jump from cell to cell. Each cell contained within a different but similar universe. I jumped through many cells and found it fascinating. I began to ponder what the body looked like that contained all these cellular universes. My observation changed to me rising above the cellular perspective. Rising farther and farther away, until the body form started to materialize and manifest it’s presence. I realized that the body shape was nothing more than little orbs of energy of light. I went further and further out, and the orb body started to turn to darkness as my distance in perspective grew. The darkness slowly formed a circle and then I realized the circle was the pupil of an eye of a much larger being!
Man, that was crazy! I actually had childhood migraines for quite sometime trying to process this realization in my mind. I had extreme migraines that would last for weeks at a time. The doctors put me on a medicine called Imipramine. They said it had shown to be beneficial in stopping migraines. They also told my parents to give me one cup of black coffee a day. Probably not the best thing to give a child by today’s standards. It was an extreme amount for a young mind to process. It was the first of many very deep dreams and visions that accompanied my youth, and to this very day.
Here is a little more background information on me. I was born dead, and my skin was blue. I was dead for three minutes before the doctors brought me back. Is it possible, that by bridging these three realms of birth and death, and then back to living, that I was able to bring some form of cosmic awareness back with me into this existence? I have always been someone that most find hard to fathom. I have never wanted the things that most want in this life, and I have always felt out of place here. Kind of like a glitch in the matrix of some form. Don’t misconstrue my intention on telling you these things, I am not complaining by no means. Quite the contrary, I am extremely grateful for the way I came into this world and all the trials and obstacles I faced along the journey.
It has shown me that there is more to this life. That we are more than just what we think we are. I feel that I have this link to the unseen because I have seen. I know that I am an ancient soul. My energy has seen many forms and has experienced many experiences. I have told myself to forget, to be able to remember each new experience. With each new experience that I begin to remember, all the old memories come flooding back. Many lifetimes lived, many forms chosen, many lessons learned. The greatest being that I have the eyes to feel and the heart to see through the illusion. That death is not to be feared. It is only a phase. There is much more to the story.
We mourn our dead loved ones because we cannot control the fact that they are no longer here in this realm. We have grown attachments in our lives and want to control those mechanisms. Once again, even in the state of death, the Ego makes it’s grand entry. We develop dependencies on things we know to be foundations in our lives. Family, friends, animals, and material possessions. Even though we know from youth that death comes for everyone at some point, we still can’t process it. This is because we are processing from egoic synapses and responses. If we truly understood that everything is connected and we are all one, we would realize regardless if we can see them or not, they are a part of us.
Instead of coming from an egoic response, try and approach it from a heart perspective. From the perspective of Love. I know it seems to be a “natural” response to mourn. I personally feel that this does an injustice to the departed. We focus on the fact they are no longer with us, and forget all the light they brought into our worlds. Some may mourn because they took someone for granted, and now they are no longer here to do anything about it. We should want to celebrate their life, not mourn their death. I look at death as a form of graduation. The lessons were learned that needed to be learned in this training program. It is a celebratory phase in our existence.
They are either going to go on to a new form of existence, or if the the proper lessons were not learned, then they will return back to the training program in a different form to try again. Either way, it is a birth to new change. All we need to realize is that everything is Love. All the little trials and obstacles in life are Love. They are there to guide us to discover our greater selves. The more difficult one’s life is, the more that shows Love on their path. THE ALL is love, and all the little pieces of it are directed with Love. Love yourselves. Love each other. Take the time to say it, to express it in all you do. Do not take your time here in this training for granted. I Love you all. You are beautiful. You are powerful. You are kind and compassionate. You are golden rays of sunshine. You are shards of stars. You are beams of the Moon. You are the rings that dance around Saturn. We are one. We are Love. We are everywhere and in everything. We are the birds and clouds in the sky. We are the trees and the flowers. We are the rivers that flow and the rocks that they flow around.
Every aspect of existence is us in some form or another. Every experience or feeling is THE ALL being manifested. We are the essence of nothing and everything at the same time. I had a great energy exchange with a very dear friend and cosmic brother who I have the utmost respect and love for named Larry. A conversation is what I refer to as an energy exchange. We were discussing what enlightenment was. He was reading out of a book that said enlightenment is knowing that we are the essence of nothing, and within knowing we are nothing, we become everything. I said hmmm, that makes sense. He laughed and said okay. I said it’s like a circle. A circle surrounds a space which is nothing. But in the act of surrounding that space, a form takes shape which creates everything.
Now where are we in this perspective? Are we the line forming the circle? Or are we standing in the nothing in the middle? If we are the line we are nothing. If we are the center we are nothing. It is not until we step outside of our individual perspectives, that the whole picture can be seen. From this perspective we realize that nothing is everything, infinite possibilities. Now what would happen if we shifted our perspective of seeing the line forming the circle, but understood the circle had form? Whoa! A circle of energy without definition but we knew the circle was there. In essence forming a vibrational grid, an invisible gate if you will. Now the question remains, what is on the other side of this invisible gate? Well, I would have to say that depends on your perspective. :-)
