Having so much time on my hands with school starting not till the 13th of August, I've been doing a lot of soul searching lately. As in literally. The question of what is the soul, who are we, what are we and why are we here.
I've been dabbling in metaphysics since high school. Sparked by reading philosophy books from my grandfathers library, I came to question the dogmas handed to my generation. At fourteen, i was a self proclaimed atheist. Greatly influenced by Ayn Rand's and the three great Greek philosophers' - Socrates, Aristotle and Plato's - works, I believed in the greatness of 'I'. Capitalism is what makes the world go around, democracy is the answer to most of the socio-political problem of the world, christianity is but an institution, and this lifetime is all we have. There is no such thing as a life after death, we are given only one chance then everything turns to dust.
But as life handed me more experience and growing pains, I felt that there is something more than 'I'. Something bigger than me, this life, this world. I started reading on Paganism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Astrology and New Age. I would get snippets of wisdom from each religion and apply it in my life. I applied the golden rule most of all: "Whatever you do to your brother, you do to yourself" as I have observed that this is evident in all religious teachings. Thus when asked what my religion is, I would answer: no organized religion but deeply spiritual.
This past weeks I have been studying 'The Secret'. Brought mainstream by a documentary of the same title, I have known 'the secret' since high school by reading "Think and Grow Rich' Napoleon Hill and "The Power of Believing" by an author I forgot . Basically the gist is our mind has the power to bring in whatever we want. Thoughts are things and one must just learn to vividly visualize the life he or she wants and the universe will conspire for him or her to get it.
I have thoroughly believed in this since I was young. I haven't practiced it much the past years but the popularity of The Secret and testimonials from friends sparked again this old interest. The funny thing is if you watch the documentary or read the books, this teachers will not tell you what 'the secret' is. Instead they will lay down the tools for you to find it out for yourself.
One tool is meditation. And so everyday I would go deep into and explore my inner world trying to discover what the secret is. But most of the time I would visualize the life I want to have - with plenty of money and plenty of friends and stunningly beautiful. One morning after smoking 3j's down south and a hangover to booth, I went into my lotus position and repeatedly whispered this mantra in my mind "wisdom and enlightenment, wisdom and enlightenment". I don't know what got into me that morning, but instead of asking for the MacBook I want, I asked for wisdom and enlightenment. I know, as I have said I don't know what got into me.
The Secret says that when you asked for something it would usually come in the most unexpected place. A day or two after that morning glory, I was tripping online and suddenly I came across this web page whilst I am doing my research on weed (that is another story though). Its about a part in the brain called amygdala and how it is responsible for higher learning as it activates your upper brain. You see we have the lower brain which is responsible for basic human needs and emotions such as hunger, sex, flight or fight etc. The upper brain is the least used, after all it has been said that we are only using ten percent of our brain.
So, for a couple of hours or so I tried to switch up my amygdala which is not an easy feat at first. How can you twitch a part of your body which is in the middle of your brain? You could easily twitch a finger or a toe but part of a brain? And so I went to sleep not knowing if I was able to twicth it or not. How am I to know right.
The following day, as I was going trough my daily ride in the information highway something wierd was happening. Whatever website I tried going into I always end up reading on stuff about the power of the brain and how it holds the key to everything. I would go to a completely unrelated website and symbols and subliminal messages would pop up. I played Jamiroquai's 'Traveling without Moving' album and suddenly I am hearing the songs in a different light - try listening closely to 'Virtual Insanity' for example. Coinicidence? I decided to roll a joint and voila - they're even on my slow burn paper (CHILLS Americana).
I was digesting so much information, losing myself in all I was reading and hearing and seeing. And then finally everything fell into place. All those questions in my head about who I am, what I am, what this world is and why I am here was answered. They answered it in the most unlikely place, in the most profound ways.
We are not physical beings on a spiritual journey, rather we are spiritual beings on a physical journey. All of the world as we have known, all of life is, is a virtual reality of 3D deviced so that we can experience experience. Call it the matrix if you want, but what we have known to be real is a technology of reality grids that our soul can go to, to have that experience of being.
The evidence is everywhere, we only fail to see it because we only use our outer vision and we have been programmed to see what they want us to see. It is as if every experience is genetically encoded in our memories. But once we open our inner eye we will see the truth stuck up on the wall. Everything from the smallest life form to the whole of this solar system and other galaxies beyond follows the same geometrical design. Perhaps you have heard of the Fibonacci number or the Phi, everything has that number (number being the universal language). If the matrix function in a binary of 1 and 0, we function in the grid of the Phi. This is called 'Sacred Geometry' and is devised to give us a linear time experience of duality - night and day, happiness and sorrow, light and darkness, life and death.
And we are asked 'to step outside the box and observe reality through its pattern rather than our emotional body'. Because the grid is crashing down. This experiment on virtual reality is finally coming to an end. We are finally leaving our three dimensional body of matter, experience and time and be the five dimensional beings that we really are. And it all starts by enLIGHTening our minds, the seat of our souls. What we really are.
In that huge cosmic connectedness we are the light. We live in harmony pf peace, love and light seeing the spectrum of everything in bright colors of beauty. We travel at the speed of light and time is an inifinite contimum. We are eternal powerful beams of light enlightening the universe.
We go from galaxy to galaxy in order to shed light to where darkness still thrives. But there is really no darkness, there's only the absence of light. And so we shed our rays of beauty and love in all this we create and allow it to grow in harmony with the rest of the universal creation.
The world we are at now is soon coming at that age of peace. Flicker of thoughts that makes us rem'ember' who we are and why are here. To shed light in this young beautiful planet, enlightening all of creations. And they are starting to awaken too, the Earth and all its beings is in a series of transformation that would finally bring it to light.
And we are all ONE.
