THE GOD ENIGMA

As most of you now know, I like to approach some of our more difficult concepts from a slightly different perspective from time to time and since your world is so steeped in religious dogma and ancient, mostly wrong beliefs, I thought I would offer some thoughts on the God enigma. I have discussed this subject before and will do so again, hopefully inserting new information that tweaks some inner emotion within your self and helps you get a better feeling and understanding of that which cannot really be fully understood. Here is the secret that is important; the brain is limited in its ability to grasp and make sense of difficult concepts that originate outside of the physical system, but the more you subject the brain to these challenging concepts, new connections are formed and new pathways forged as the brain grows in its capacity to handle today what it could not understand yesterday. The secret is, of course, is to keep challenging the brain, feeding it new difficult to understand concepts, and eventually the brain will grow into them.

I try to stay away from discussing organized religion, simply because you are so defensive about your own religious beliefs and practices even though you may know that they are antiquated, outdated and in many ways very limiting to your spiritual growth. But, if you are ever going to understand some of the most difficult but rewarding knowledge about your universe and your God, you must understand who, what and when God is. Only a fool would presume that he understood the entire true nature of God, and in fact, no one will ever know all there is to know about the God Essence, but I will try to dance around the subject in a light hearted manner with some personal musings instead of rigid lessons about a subject that can never be fully known except by the most mature advanced and ancient entities. So lets begin with the dictionary definition of God, which can lead one astray, if not totally lost since it infers only one universe, which in turn infers only one earth and belief in a “one universe” concept alone can hinder any true understanding and growth .

“The one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler of the universe”

First and foremost, God is not in any sense of the imagination a Being and in fact, although God/All That Is the Source of all energy and all physical manifestations, He rules nothing and it is only your belief in ancient legends that you assume that God is an autocratic, angry, judging and punishing God. God is an Energy Essence Source, a knowing Prime Source of everything that is and does not know the meaning of judgement and punishment. God judges nothing and punishes no one.

You invoke God’s name in a variety of ways which do not need to be included here, but God bless America, God willing, Thank God, God damn, God awful, God’s will be done, God fearing people, God’s chosen One, Pray to God and so on, and so on are just a few. But how many of you have ever stopped to think deeply about who or what God really is? That’s a rhetorical question of course, so this article is not meant to demean or denigrate any ones beliefs, but to point you in the right direction, and as I have said many times, if I can just manage to make you become aware and make you think, then I have accomplished much of my original intent in these humble scribbles. Since any true understanding of the God concept escapes human intellect and at most levels of psychological development a true understanding must be attempted through the use of not only the intellect but through the use of inner awareness. At times it may be easier to tell you what God is not than to explain to you what He/It is. So with that in mind, it may help if I break this down into attempting to clarify by answering several pertinent questions.

What is God?

The dictionary states that God is the one Supreme Being and that is probably the most misleading statement in that God is not by any stretch of the imagination a being as you know beings, even if you are adventurous enough to include alien beings. God is an energy essence, a self aware, knowing repository of all knowledge and all experience, a creator of All That Is and all that will ever be. God is self aware, consciousness infused Energy that pervades everything, making itself known by expressing itself in as many forms as possible and if you can accept that statement, then you will know that this Energy Essence that spills out into everything could never be satisfied with the spilling out into just one paltry universe..

All energy is conscious of itself, even the smallest imaginable particle of energy is aware of its own being and is ever striving to Be known. Being is the goal, and this striving, this unimaginable desire for self expression never dissipates or diminishes and has always been the motivating force behind the first realization of self and the first breakthrough of this self aware force into the first minute physical particle. This was in a way the first miracle, the original psychic breakthrough of thought, desire and expectation into physical matter, but this miracle is as new today as it was eons ago as even now the earth and universe emerges new each moment. Some will understand the significance of this statement, some will not.

The Bible says that God always was and always will be, but energy always was and always will be and this energy that creates and permeates all universes is the essence of the Prime Energy Source that you refer to as God. I prefer the title of “All that Is” since it is less humanized and by now you all know that God is in no way human and you err when you project human type emotions or motivations on God/All That Is. Children and the less intelligent, still cling to age old tales of beginnings, endings and wrathful gods, jealous, judgmental and leaning toward eternal damnation and punishments and always appearing at the last moment to save the righteous civilizations from destruction. Those are human characteristics, and God is not human in any sense of the word. Most intelligent individuals have long known deep in their hearts that this is not the true nature of God, and have long sought knowledge that they sense exists, but do not know where to find it.

It is my intent to make known what I know, and there is much more that I don’t know. The God enigma is structured so that it is constantly fragmenting itself and sending those self aware fragments (you and others like you) out into endless dimensions, re-creating itself exponentially and yet never becoming less but always increasing as it experiences everything that its fragments experience. In a remote, oversimplified way, you are a fragment of your soul, and your soul is a fragment of All That Is. In the exact same way, you create fragments of yourself in the dream universe every night when you sleep. I really don’t like this analogy, but you could say that all universes, all worlds, all planes and dimensions are a VERY REAL DREAM of All That Is/God. Just as you do not consciously follow your dreaming self when you are awake, God does not consciously follow its creations either, but there is indeed not one sparrow that dies but that God is not aware.

I think most of you would agree that there is a touch of divinity in all living things, and that includes humans, flora and fauna. Here is something that you probably also sense though may not have thought about. All physical stuff, rocks, minerals, chemicals, tables, water and yes, even air you breathe has some kind of consciousness, minute as it may be in comparison to human consciousness. Everything that is, is composed of atoms and molecules and they also possess their own generalized type of consciousness. Everything that IS has been derived from and through the auspices of God and everything that is that is physically materialized, is composed of atoms which are the result of (basic energy with the intent to Be). So God/All That Is, is an energy gestalt, the prime source, the top of the energy pyramid, a divine process rather than some courtly old gentlemen. But this Prime Source knows itself not only as itself, but as all selves, all materializations and all that is not materialized (thoughts, ideas, imaginings). God has no face, but on the other hand, God is all faces. And for those slavishly following worn out dogma, God did not create mankind in His image, but mankind does create its God in their image.

Let’s now talk briefly about forever. There is a duality involved here that makes much of what I want to explain so difficult to understand. There is the outer physical universe and all that it contains and there is the inner universe which is the source of its physically materialized counterpart. (That’s where God can be found and cannot be found.) If you really want to understand, then you must know that nothing that exists to you outwardly would exist if it did not come from the inner incubator of all physical materializations, persons, objects and events. All OUTSIDE comes from INSIDE, and herein lies the difficulty that I must navigate through when attempting to explain concepts that are almost beyond explanation to the rational brain, but where the brain falters, the mind does not, so I talk as much to your mind as I do your brain. The INNER exists in a totally different medium than the OUTER and this is why I often use the dream universe as examples in many of our most difficult concepts. You are aware of the “Time Discrepancy” that makes itself evident in your dreams when you experience days, weeks and years in a matter of minutes. This in some important ways approximates that inner universe of the expansive present in which all things past, present and future already exist and are not touched of affected by your version of time or space.

In the expansive present, all things exist simultaneously, and the countless dimensions and planes of existence, all alien civilizations (and they are countless) are structured within this expansive present and achieve their own unique perspective of existence based on how they choose to structure and use this medium. ( Of course, the atomic structure of each world/universe must be in concert with the perception characteristics of the species doing the perceiving or nothing at all would be perceived.)

Your species chose a time/space perspective, choosing certain events and materializing them one at a time in a seemingly endless parade of events strung out over moments, hours, days, years and eons one before the other and expanding in space, growing in size and distance. But it doesn’t have to be this way, it does for you of course, but it doesn’t for other civilizations. Many worlds and civilizations choose to actualize and utilize multiple events at the same “time” and their consciousness is simply tuned differently than yours and is more advanced in that respect. I only mention these other civilizations, to help me explain the existence and the origin of God.

Now, you may think that it is presumptions that I would consider myself an authority on God and take on the responsibility of explaining that which we all know can never be explained, and believe me, there is much that will forever remain an enigma. We are talking here of a vast, massive intellect that has been evolving forever, sophisticated, complicated, expansive and mature beyond anything you or I can imagine. God, It, can never be adequately explained by anyone at your or my level of development, but it is better to try and understand than to sit idly in a pew listening to someone whose most stellar claim to fame is selling you holy water, prayer cloths, threatening you with eternal damnation while extorting you for money, molesting children and preaching doctrine that is so ludicrous that even as you sit and listen You KNOW deep in your heart that most of what is said is poppycock and the handiwork of charlatans and dignified con men wearing white robes and golden crowns. Expose! God herself does not own a crown or robe but is the crown and robe.

I told you up front in the beginning of these columns that I don’t know everything, I don’t even know much when compared to what is to be known. My information comes from other sources more evolved than myself, and it is my task to interpret this knowledge, put into words and concepts that can be more easily understood, but even then, many of these concepts are at the precipice of the cliff of the ability of the human brain to understand, but I do my best and I will not water them down for simplicities sake or to make them understandable to simple minds.

When did God begin?

I now want to attempt an answer to the question that most of you wonder about and it is the question that is the most difficult to grasp from your perspective within a “time oriented” physical system of reality such as your world. Time as you experience it is unique to your world, but is strange to other systems, some much more evolved than yours. Time and space are illusions that you must accept on your plane, but they are by no means universal. Even your universe is only “time structured” to your civilization and from your unique perspective. If you were born into a system of reality that did not recognize “time”, then you would be amazed that anyone would choose to experience events one at a time, moving from present into the future and leaving already experienced events trailing behind in the past. This method of experiencing time seems perfectly normal to you so when I say that in other systems, the statement of “God always was and always will be” seems perfectly normal and would not be questioned. Only in a world of perceived beginnings and endings, cause and effect, is a formal beginning expected. Actually, the cause and the effect happen at once.

In the inner universe, the expansive present, everything exists simultaneously, yet is always increasing in psychological fulfillment and depth and is never finished. This kind of psychological expansion has nothing to do with time or space, just as the complexity and depth experience of a dream increases and expands. This kind of psychological expansion achieves duration through increasing inner fulfillment. In the same way the physical universe expands, but in actuality the physical expansion that you perceive as increasing distances, is but your perception of an inner psychological expansion in terms of inner gratifications and achievements of this universal consciousness. Bottom line, there is no such thing as real time and there is no real space, only a perception of time and space in your universe and this is actually your interpretation of psychological fulfillment and depth of inner experience.

In that respect, God is energy, and energy always was and always will be, so here we must conclude that God never had a beginning as you understand the necessity for beginnings. There was a time when an ever existing generalized energy began to become aware of itself and if you reach back far enough into your kind of time, which you must do at this “time”, you could say that there was a period of original awakening when that “which always was” , this imprecise and unspecific energy, began to awaken and know itself as action and action creates identity.

Realizing its aloneness but also suspecting its vast potential, this initial action that you can call God or All That Is, knowing its need to BE, began to seek ways to further know itself through self expression and creativity. Action, energy in motion, enfolding back on itself always instigates the question, “Who am I?” and this initiates the spark of identity inherent in the answer, “I am I”.

This aloneness, this original striving “to Be” provided the impetus for “realization of original identity” and expansion in multitudinous ways that we can only imagine. Finally, there is nothing inherently wrong with something existing forever if you were not been born into and slavishly indoctrinated in the time oriented system, which incidentally, is necessary for any personality in your “time system” in order to hold it’s focus and manipulate in that system. Without this unyielding, intense focus on your earth time/space system, your essence would drift off into other systems and become hopeless lost

We can only touch on the tip of the iceberg in these discussions, but I will elaborate on this subject again and again as you have probably already suspected. There is only so much I can tell you at this time, but in the final analysis, the only true realization of the God Enigma must come from within. Hopefully, I can point you in the right direction. Try in remember this, when you dream, you almost totally escape the limitations of time and space, they become irrelevant. Why then would the existence of a similar but much more expansive inner universe seem so incomprehensible to you? If you only begin to get a glimpse of this endless, timeless expansive present which is the home of all worlds, realities and universes, and God itself, you can pat yourself on the back for you are beginning to peek into realities that most don’t even know exist. There is much more to know.

The implications of this knowledge represents this truth; Everything that exists now, existed in the beginning in your terms. There is no new consciousness being created, only consciousness manifested in new ways. What this really means is that you, in different form existed then, but not in the same way you exist now. What you are, existed before your world was set in place and will exist even though your world may disappear and reappear as it has done before. You have always existed, but not as “self aware identity” and once that “self awareness” identity has been attained, it can never be destroyed. It will change as you will change, but it will never be diminished or destroyed.

END OF THE WORLD CAUSED BY GLOBAL WARMING?

I wanted to address this subject in light of all of the attention now being focused on the emission of carbon and noxious and dangerous gasses into the earth’s atmosphere. The real gravity of the subject can only be understood if you understand the true foundation of your world and can somehow get beyond the myths, legends and parables about an angry God ready to punish and wreak havoc on all who disobey his almighty rules. The main reason that I bring this up is that it is harder for me to explain things to people who are deeply indoctrinated in religious dogma which greatly limits their ability to set aside old, worn out, simplistic children’s tales of creation, death and destruction and have an open mind to examine and try and understand difficult but true concepts.

Many of those who are still steeped in this limiting dogma will find it difficult to believe that God/All That Is, that envisioned elderly gentleman with the long flowing gray hair, would allow or bring about the destruction of his one and only favorite world and therein lies the problem that I must transcend in order to make sense of things. First and foremost, if you have been reading this material, you will hopefully understand by now that what or who you call “God” destroys nothing, people destroy, gods don’t.

By now you understand that there are countless worlds supporting countess civilizations in countless universes, still All That Is keeps “ALL” in Its massive attention and never loses track of even one small universe. Having said that, the original creation of even one universe, infers the creation of many and any world in any dimension, once having been created, set in place and given motion, is essentially on its own to expand and evolve along its own lines and the only limitations are the limitations established by the entities that create and will inhabit such a world or universe. Once created, identities/personalities such as you and even entire systems of reality have complete unlimited freedom of choice on what you do with your life and your world. Although an entity gave you life, it has no ability to interfere in the choices you make for good or bad, for your intimate interactions, your life or your world. You create your reality, your successes and your failures and you can blame no one but yourself for your errors in judgement. God does not cause tornadoes, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, wars, starvation, pestilence, plagues and other calamities as punishments for a disobedient people, and in fact, you have a greater influence on these seemingly natural occurrences than God does.

There ARE destructions and all of the aforementioned disasters but the source of them lies within the identities that inhabit your world and just as you inadvertently, automatically and unconsciously create and support your natural environment, you also do the same for the what seems to you to be totally unconnected physical phenomena such as the weather in all of its beneficial and destructive manifestations.

There is not one of you that has not felt the excess of energy in a storm or felt “flooded” with emotion just as you would be if you were flooded with by water. Then it should not seem strange if I tell you that explosive feelings of a population will in some cases bring about explosive weather events, wars or other disasters. Of course there is much more involved here, but my intent is to point out what you call God, is the foundation for all universes but does not interact personally with any for better or worse, but supplies the initial energy for all.

There are psychic safety valves in place, entities who are watching and observing and in ways hard to explain, exerting their influences in a limited way when things go astray. They are there to relieve the pressure when destruction is imminent but their effects are to some great extent limited and necessary lessons are learned and progress made even in destruction and disaster. Your world has known other endings and other new beginnings. Civilizations, ancient in your terms, predating your present earth have managed to destroy their earth and their civilization before and you could do so again, so in your terms, there is no God on high who will come swooping down from the heavens on his white horse, robes flowing in the wind to save your world when you have brought it to its knees and to the brink of total destruction and annihilation. You actually have only one sure fire method for survival in a world seemingly gone insane, and that is your own good sense, but having good sense is not enough if you do not use it for your own and your contemporaries benefit.

Entities/souls create worlds, people are meant to preserve, build on and enhance worlds and not destroy them. Some civilizations treat their worlds with dignity and respect for all of nature, they nurture them and understand the co-operative nature of all to maintain and sustain their environments, they luxuriate in their creations, and respect the will to live of all creatures. Your entire earth is a finely woven tapestry of life, conceived by imaginative consciousness with forethought beyond anything that you can presently understand. Your world was given over to generations of individual personalities to see what they would do with it, and so far, they are not doing very well.

You are rapidly unraveling this magnificent tapestry of life as you pollute your own atmosphere, driving one species after another into extinction. You complain as your fisheries collapse, droughts
decimate your crops, you clear cut your forests and in some cities, the inhabitants have to wear masks to help them breathe the polluted air. Your last president, being of limited intellect, in a moment of great lucidity, said that he would not try to cut back on pollution because it might cause your country to lose jobs. This may seem to be a bit absurd, but what good is a job if the world ceases to exist. What good is a job if you can’t drink the water? What good is a job if you must breathe polluted air? Doesn’t it ever occur to you that something is drastically wrong with this picture?

Your real problem is not that you have too few fish, not that you need more electric power, not that you need to clear more land removing animal habitat, the real problem is that you have too many people. You abandon logical thinking and mindlessly follow misguided, ignorant clergy, telling you that God wants you to create more babies, that it is a sin to use certain methods of birth control and that the situation will take care of itself. It will not take care of itself, but you have within your power to make the necessary changes to insure a lasting world of fulfilled values and satisfactions for all of its inhabitants. Your world will never achieve its natural state of equilibrium with six billion people on the planet.

Global warming and cooling is a natural occurrence, happening in cycles over thousands of years and the inhabitants evolve, migrate, change and adapt to those evolutionary changes, but never before have those changes taken place so drastically over a mere few hundred years. Just as there are probable selves, there are probable worlds, and there is a probable world that was destroyed by climate becoming so severe as to not be inhabitable by life as you know it. The lines of probability are beginning to point to actualization of this reality if you don’t make some drastic changes and make them soon. Your world CAN reach a point of “no return” where any changes will become ineffective and fruitless and no actions will be able to alleviate or reverse the negative effects of global warming. Trends tend to keep going and only drastic, forceful action can interrupt a well established trend.

Remember, even though you may destroy your world, its civilizations and all living matter, lessons will be learned and all entities, identities and personalities who have ever inhabited your world or will inhabit your world in the future, will try again. In your terms, there are several options which could occur. Your world could become so polluted that the species must find a new way of life, living underground, drinking unpolluted water from deep within the earth, synthesizing your food by hydroponic methods and developing a new kind of underground society. Another option is that only the most basic life forms will survive, mutate and evolve into what you may consider alien life forms more suited to breathing CO2 and methane gasses in temperatures that you could not now endure.

The last option is the total destruction of earth as you know it, where to the entities involved in its creation, it cannot be salvaged without major reconstitution, in which case, if they feel the task worthwhile, the earth will be re-created and the process of life will begin again much as when the cave men and dinosaurs once roamed the landscape. Having learned from past mistakes, the life forms that inhabit the new earth will evolve much faster the second time around and not repeat past errors. This process has happened before and it can happen again. The identities that perished in this other endeavor of life on earth, having failed in their first attempt, went on to other less challenging reality systems until they evolved enough to handle the more challenging systems.

Remember, even though you may destroy earth as you know it, you cannot destroy the individual consciousness of even one small flower or one human, and all will live again in more favorable circumstances. In your universe of unlimited abundance, nothing can ever be permanently destroyed as energy once manifested into one environment changes into another, driven by consciousness as it asserts itself into new worlds, environments and identities and occupies the new world that it has created.

You have time to change this outcome, but the time is limited. The only way you can permanently solve this problem is to come to your senses and begin to limit your populations, start by defying those who tell you to continue procreating yourself into certain extinction. This statement should not have to be made, but since you don’t seem to understand, let me say that you must limit your populations through birth control since abstinence is unnatural and flies in the face of common sense. As you bring your populations under control, world wide starvation will lessen, food will be more readily available, the animals will enjoy more habitat and finally your world will achieve its natural state of balance that it once had and all can enjoy a value fulfillment that was the original intent.

WHERE DO YOU GO WHEN YOU DIE?

The question as it was posed; If you do not really die upon physical death as you have proposed, what is it like and where do you go when you leave your body behind?

This is a question that is on every persons mind at one time or another and I have addressed it before, but as some of you know, I like to revisit subjects and try and approach them from different angles as some of you become more familiar with the real nature of reality that I am trying to explain to the best of my limited abilities. As we have often said, there is no hell, and thank God, there is no heaven either or we would all be in for a very long time kneeling, adoring and playing harps in our spare time. Your timeless tales of heaven, hell, punishment and damnation are actually age old, worn out myths handed down through the generations by people of various cultures, beliefs and superstitions and bear very little resemblance to the true facts. They do provide fodder for threats and intimidation by unscrupulous clergy eager to relieve you of your money by offering indulgences and salvation. By the way, while I am thinking of it, God could give not one whit if you tithe or not. Actually money has little value where God is, and there are no 7-11 stores on every corner.

Now back to death. The definition of the word “death” should be changed and the lingering effect of the word itself, makes it extremely difficult to get beyond that meaning and into the real truths behind death. The dictionary describes death as; annihilation, eradication, termination, cessation, destruction and many more very inappropriate descriptive words and so we have to deal with these distortions.

Death simply is not death as you know it, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the annihilation or termination or with any of the other words that portray any kind of ending of consciousness. There is an ending for all living physical bodies, that having something to do mainly with a diminishing energy available to the human form from the entity/soul. I have said before that matter itself does not age, because it just isn’t around long enough to age, so the physical body does not age because of some inherent defect in the matter itself or because the cells get old. Even your scientists know that cells themselves have a very short lifetime and they don’t fall off because they get old, they fall off of your body because the creative energy behind them falters and fails, but they are replaced by other cells, retaining the exact same cellular memory as the previous cell they replace.

What you perceive as an ending is not an ending, but a limitation of your perceptive ability which cannot follow the transition that takes place when the dying consciousness leaves the physical form behind and transitions into another dimension beyond where your senses can follow. Dying is usually a gradual process and there is NO precise point in time where you can say that someone actually died although it may seem to you that you can pinpoint the exact moment of death. Actual death or exit from the physical plane is never a surprise to the one doing the dying, as the place and hour of death has long been known to the inner self, but of course not made known to the ego consciousness for obvious reasons. The method of death may change, but the advance knowledge does not.

Now, as you know, I often use the dream state as a handy analogy since it is something that you are intimately connected with, so lets try another one. When you sleep and dream, you travel great distances and visit many strange lands and worlds. While you are dreaming, you can just as easily be living your dream experience in ancient Rome, pre-history Atlantis or yesterday in Des Moines Iowa. I think all will agree that you are very alive in your dreams, but because the usual AWAKE YOU is then sleeping, your dreams seem rather chaotic and discombobulated and because you cannot control your dreams to any great extent at this time, you tend to think they are usually meaningless fantasies. Since the dream world does not recognize time and space as you do, there is a disconnect when you try to make sense of some dreams upon waking.

You also continue to exist as your dreaming self when you are awake and your dreaming self goes merrily on its way, charting its own future and has complete independence from the awake you in his own universe of existence. Of course you are another portion of your dreaming self, but at this point in your evolutionary development, you must concentrate your attention on one or the other. You are evolving in the direction of greater awareness and being able to be aware of both your awake self and your dreaming self simultaneously and that is a natural characteristic of consciousness. This infers that your dreaming self exists on its own plane of development whether or not you are paying attention and that is the case. Your awake consciousness dips in and out of a continuing dream world that is just as vivid, concrete and experiential as your own, the difference being that “dream world” constructions are put to together using molecules in a different way. In other words, your dreaming self experiences its world in a meaningful way just as you experience yours and the dream world is no less in quality in any way and to the dreaming self, there is purpose, order and duration and there is no apparent chaos.

Now here is something that is hard to grasp at first; the dream world has expanse and duration of its own kind, but it doesn’t require space or time as you know it. The vast distances that you travel in your dream experiences take place in the confines of your bedroom but that does not make them any less in psychological depth. Even though you can experience years in a matter of minutes in your dreams, the experience is no less satisfying. To you, the dream body has no substance, but of course, to the dreaming self the materialization of its body is quite as real as your own, even though its materialization is somewhat different as to molecular structure.

The dream world and dream universe are not your universe but it is still intimately involved in the materialization of objects and events in your world and if it did not exist, neither could your physical universe exist as you know it. So, in terms of distance, you could say that the dream universe, though not your universe, is very close, adjacent to your universe and the distance experienced in the dream world is a psychological quality very close to experiencing “depth or quality of satisfaction” interpreted as distance or space in the physical world.

The reason I went into the dream world at this time was to draw a comparison between the dreaming self, the dream identity (you) and the recently dead personality (also you).

There are many similarities between the dreaming you and the dead you, the main one being that the dead you is just as alive as the dreaming you, and in somewhat the same kind of bodily form that has been called the astral body. This is often very disconcerting to the recently passed personality as the transition process is so smooth and seamless, and the new body so similar to the previous body that he or she does not even realize that they have died. Of course the body is not the same, but it appears so and the personality soon learns that there are fewer limitations to this new body than to the previous physically constructed form. Your new body will have eyes though you will not need them to see. Your new body after death will have a mouth, although you will not use it to eat or to speak. You will soon realize communication is instantaneous through telepathy although a bit awkward at first as they learn to use their new skills.

Now, as to where you actually go when you die. This is again, one of those questions that makes me so aware of my limitations and frustrations in trying to explain something that I know, but must struggle to explain to others with words that just never seem to be adequate. As I said when describing the dreaming self and the dream universe, they seem to be limitless in scope, miles and miles stretching out endlessly, but all contained in the limited space of your immediate surroundings. Past eras of time seem to extend backward into ancient civilizations, although this all expands endlessly within your own bedroom, and they are as real in psychological fact as is your universe.

In a similar way, when you die, you transition to another plane/dimension that in a way is as close to physical earth as the dream universe, the recently passed personality being able to still see and observe their loved ones still alive on earth. Unfortunately this ability is limited to a one way sort of observance, as the ones still alive on earth cannot communicate with them in the same way. But there is another reason why communication is not easy between the departed and those left behind and that is not so easy to explain. But as usual, I will try.

I have said that the recently passed personality can still “see’ you and what you are doing in the physical world for some time after death, just as he/she hovering above, can still observe their previous, now dead body lying on the hospital bed. The dream universe is in a way a parallel universe adjacent to yours and is a fully functioning universe offering its inhabitants similar opportunities for advancement, challenges and opportunities for development under its own set of rules, but this is not the case after death. The after death plane is a more limited plane and for the recently dead, this could best be described as a stopover, even though in your terms, it may be a long stop over. This is a plane dedicated to rest, recuperation, observation, understanding, learning and decision making.

The reason that communication is difficult between the survivor personality and the living human in the physical system, is that this plane, which is a transition plane only, is in terms of psychological depth and distance, very, very far away from the physical system. This is the difficult part in the telling because, at first, the surviving personality hovers around the physical earth system, not fully realizing that he/she has died and again, in terms of distance, remains close, but as the realization sinks in, he/she finally accepts the fact of their death and fully moves into the transition plane. In terms of distance (which does not really exist), but in terms of “psychological” distance, is far removed from the earth plane, but still exists simultaneously in the same time and space continuum as your earth, so here we must talk of distance that is great, but does not really exist in functional reality.

The purpose of this transitional plane is essentially a place of relaxation for a personality who, may have just emerged from a very trying lifetime and in need of rest and relaxation. Consciousness needs rest as does the human physical form. This is a place for looking back at the previous life to see where adjustments can be made, to analyze past mistakes, to revisit them if necessary and to relive them again in need be. This is the place where the surviving personality meets its other probable selves who may or may not also be available between lives. This is the place where the survivor personality meets its entity/soul and learns more about its continuing purpose. This is the place where future plans are made for the next lifetime, where in a very true sense, worlds are selected for the next lifetime that will offer the best opportunity for the kind of development that the personality and entity decide is needed.

This is the time and place for learning and there are teachers who will help and aid those who are still clueless and are in kindergarten so to speak and also those who will advance out of the physical system entirely. The clueless will learn and evolve as no one stays ignorant forever, some are just slow learners and evolve at a snails pace. All will eventually, learning about their true situation and available options, make decisions here about their next lifetime.

It is important to remember, this is a plane dedicated to transition survivor personalities and it is not intended to be a plane offering a full system of probabilities and potential experience, but a place of reconstituting the spirit and reinvigorating the depleted desire for new life experience. So finally, I hope you can see why I flounder sometimes trying to explain something that is true in one sense, but untrue in another. When you die, you will at least at first, be as close as the kitchen sink, but pretty much unable to communicate with those that you can still clearly observe. How frustrating is that?

In other words, as a spirit, (and I hate that word), you are still somewhat in the same space as earth itself, but moving in the direction of a deeper involvement in a psychic reality that will take you light years into another transitory plane, but still in the same physical neighborhood as earth if you must speak in terms of distance. Far away, but close, and with time, this psychological distance increases and difficulty of communication with personalities still alive in the earth system becomes even more problematic as this psychological depth increases. When the survival personality, in concert with his soul/entity, finally makes a decision about the next future life and is born into another lifetime, any communication becomes practically impossible.

Let me try another tack here. It could be truly said that all worlds, all planes, all dimensions and all universes could fit on the head of a pin. They simply do not take up any space, so all are in one small space that is expansive beyond anything you or I could now understand, and there is no lack of room for more universes which are constantly being added to the mix. Think about this, how many thoughts or ideas could fit into your morning coffee cup? To illustrate this another way, imagine the most complicated, expansive, all inclusive dream that you have ever had, and it will not surprise you in the least when I tell you that all of its actions, experiences, travels, loves, tragedies and consecutive years would also fit comfortably on the head of a pin.

In a far grander scope, imagine that “Everything that Is” is a very real dream of “All That Is” (God) that gradually over eons of time, began to imagine significance in form, coalescing, coagulating into something that could, through the future development of precisely tuned physical senses, be perceived as a solid universe.

IS LEVITATION POSSIBLE OR IS IT AN ILLUSION?

The question as it was posed: Is levitation possible or is it an illusion perpetrated by magicians and how about telepathy, clairvoyance or remote viewing?
Yes and yes and yes and yes and yes.
They are all possible, but herein lies the almost insurmountable complications in understanding the reasons behind the ability to levitate the human form. Levitation seems so unbelievable because it violates one of the most sacred laws of the universe, the law of gravity. You can measure the effects of the law of gravity and of course, that has been done before, so that would lead one to believe that the law of gravity cannot be negated, it is pervasive and relentless. There is a caveat here, and that is that your universe operates automatically on its own set of laws, but your universe is a camouflage, an overlay of the basic “prime universe” that is the “inside” of the outside physical universe, and it is upon this inside prime universe that your physical universe is rooted and retains its stability.

Other universal laws are “time, or cause and effect” and “space” and as I have said before they are both illusions and are only relevant within your system. Other space civilizations, alien life forms inhabiting other planets, planes and dimensions may know nothing of your version of time and space or if they do operate within some of the root assumptions and requirements of time and space, they do so while the are well aware that they are illusions, and they utilize their effects for their own purposes, but are not bound to them as you are. So what I am saying is that even though these laws may be very convincing when you are forced to live by their dictates within the physical system, these laws are not absolute, though they are apparent.

In other words, these laws of gravity, time and space can be broken and on occasion you can break the trance and see them for the illusion that they are. You can get hints of the illusion in the dream state, when you can experience a dream that took up a week of your physical experience in only a few minutes of dream time and when you awake you would find that the week of dream experience did not cost you a week of your life, but only minutes. In other words, you lived a week of physical time in the dream experience, but only aged a few minutes. This fact alone should convince you that time is relative and in a larger context it is downright deceptive. In the dream state, when the ego is stilled, time and space lose their hold on your conscious ego and you are more free to experience the true “expansive present” that is the only true time. You can in the dream state, walk down miles of roads and never move your legs as you lie in bed, and in the same time frame of only a few minutes, and never wear out any shoe leather, and the miles of roads that you traverse are all contained in the confined space of your bedroom,.

The reason that I point this out is that many of the laws of your universe are unique to your system of reality, and they cannot even be applied to other civilizations even in your own universe. They only hold sway over your one small world and to other physical phenomena that your instruments allow you to perceive but they do not apply to other planes and dimensions that exist in your universe.

There are also “basic laws” of the inner universe and these laws can be applied to all systems, worlds, universes, dimensions and civilizations. You are also immersed in these basic inner universe laws, but you are not aware of them at this time. These basic laws cannot be negated or broken, the laws of your physical universe can be broken on occasion they are, and when they are broken, you call the experience anomalies or “Extra Sensual Perception” or ESP. These “Paranormal” experiences are usually not planned in advance and usually happen when they are least expected and that is why they are so hard to duplicate for demonstration purposes. What you then refer to as ESP occurrences, are spontaneous, instantaneous and originate from within the inner universe of psychic reality and usually not from conscious cognition.

The abilities of the human personality to sense things other than physical objects and events has long been known and these abilities are inherent and latent within all consciousness to some degree, but although they are retained in the subconscious of the human species, they are closer to the surface of many of the animal species that are not so limited by the pervasive hold of the human ego consciousness. No one is born without these abilities as you might be born without a leg for example, but some people have become more proficient in the use of these psychic abilities. Humanity as you know it is very dependent on the use of inner telepathic abilities to provide the adhesiveness to the physical universe and its many manifestations from the most distant star to the tree in your yard. These and all other objects and events only make sense to your outer perceptions, because they are all actually individual and differing in some very important respects.

When all perceptions are shared between all consciousness (including the consciousness of all living things), and when each persons individual perception of an object, each creating their own version of that object, the data is shared through telepathic communication and the differences begin to even out and finally you will all see, hear, smell, touch and taste the same thing. Your five senses alone could never come to this type of agreement on the size, height, weight, color of objects if this kind of inner telepathic communication did not act as some kind of moderator of differing perceptions.

If this commonality was not formed through the use of telepathy, there could be no agreement or sharing of data that this “common telepathic sharing” brings about. There is another truth here that you have not yet learned and that is you have NO thoughts are not intimately known to all those around you. Of course this is known through inner communication, and does not usually rise to the surface of ego consciousness. Some people, including some psychics and mediums have developed their inner senses to the extent that they can truly read your mind, but they are simply demonstrating to all what is an inherent ability of all consciousness. This is the natural way of communication of most other universal civilizations, and you will all learn to communicate naturally this way. In fact, upon death you will transition to another plane where communication will be exclusively telepathic. This will take some adjustment at first.

Clairvoyance is another psychic ability that is quite common and is always used in the background of all consciousness. That is why there will always be those who for some strange unexplained reason did not take the flight on the plane that crashed. You rationalize it off as a coincidence, a freak of nature, but I tell you, it was no accident. All species have the ability to, on occasion, to see into the future, but usually don’t realize that is what they are doing. The future exists NOW, just as real as the present and the past. Your consciousness is tuned to perceive only the present and due to “memory”, you can recall some of the past, but you cannot see the future which exists now just as does the past and present. Those who can see into the future are simply better at sneaking a peek at future probabilities, sorting out the most probable of all possibilities and selecting the most likely to be actualized when that future time comes. (See article on probabilities). You are actually viewing “time” in slow motion, experiencing one event at a time in a linear fashion when this is not necessary and in fact, quite unusual in a universe full of what you would call alien species. There is a better way.

Again, animals have the innate ability, to sense future disasters and leave the territory that will be affected well in advance of the actual event. This happens regularly with impending floods, hurricanes and recently happened in the Tsunami that devastated Banda Aceh, Indonesia, where animals were seen leaving the area well in advance of the actual event. For animals, the ability to sense some future events is because they are not so limited by the ego consciousness that sometimes stifles the human species, as the ego in performing its usual duties, rejects this kind of clairvoyant information, because it will not allow certain information to seep through to your conscious attention that does not come from physical sources. There are countless instances where people have seen or viewed future events before they happened and I don’t need to go into them now, other than to say, in your nightly dreams, when your pervasive and dominant ego is stilled, you regularly explore future events and you could not do this if they did not already exist in psychological fact and they in no uncertain terms exist just as real as any physical event.

Levitation is the ability to “violate” the law of gravity, to set aside its effects temporarily and raise your body or a physical object from the earth. This is happens in the most rare situations, but it does happen on occasion. This will be the most difficult to explain, simply because you have been taught that nothing can offset the apparent laws of the universe. First of all, you must realize the each system of reality, even some that exist in the same “space” as your earth, exist with their own specialized sets of parameters for existence within their particular system. To project your system’s laws on other worlds and dimensions is folly and the laws that seem so irrefutable to your :”earth” would have no validity in other worlds even in your own universe. In other words, gravity which seems so unavoidable on earth, may be expressed in other terms on other planets or planes. Gravity may be a law prevalent in your universe, but your universe is yours only, and others sharing your universe are not bound by your adopted laws.

All “unnatural” paranormal acts and events that now seem so unusual to you are unusual only because you do not expect them to happen, so your ego consciousness screens and limits what you can experience simply because it fears losing its dominance. Paranormal events cannot be forced, or even predicted. How many times have you had a hunch that came true? How many times have you said :”I knew that?” How many times have you felt something about someone close to you that turned out to be correct? How often, have you thought that you “received” a message from someone who has recently died? How many times have you thought that you have been somewhere or met someone before? Many of these happenings are not imagined coincidences, though you may think they are.

Your physical body is not solid, but all of earths living species have agreed to pretend that they are for a limited time at precise coordinates in time and space and the illusion cannot be pierced except in unusual circumstances. You have created and tuned your perceptions to play creative games with atoms, molecules and cells in one gigantic co-operative effort to use them as building blocks for more complicated life forms, but remember, the atoms themselves are not any more solid than you are, but their effect gives the impression of solidity.

Solidity, rigid, concrete appearing objects are simply purposeful collections of swirling atoms driven by self aware consciousness into, filling out meaningful, psychic, physical patterns that achieve duration and continuity in time for all to use and enjoy. Atoms are continually coming and going and the chair that you sit on today is not the same chair you will sit on tomorrow, but as some like to say, it will be close enough for government work. Now, I don’t expect to convince you in one short article, that everything that you experience is an illusion, but more precisely, everything “physical” that you experience is something that you hallucinate through the use of your senses. Gravity is a reality in YOUR universe, but your universe is not the same universe of alien civilizations and it is not the universe of your inner self. Your inner self dwells in the inner universe that operates on its own set of laws and they are quite different than yours.

Since you live in a universe of its own appearances and parameters for existence, generally, you must follow the rules, but the rules are not absolute, but they are accepted by the ego consciousness whose job it is to manipulate a physical identity in the physical system. When you learn to disassociate your consciousness from everyday life, the more you can learn to rely on your subconscious and inner senses, the more you can learn to trust your intuitions and hunches, the closer you will come to the use of your paranormal senses that are latent in all personalities.

Finally, you are not all at the same level of psychic sophistication because you did not all enter the system at the same time or the same level of development and there are some among you that are more developed along these lines than others. They have begun to somewhat break the stranglehold of the pervasive outer ego and see through the illusion more than others and they recognize that your world of appearances is just that. These personalities are further along than others and they have learned the lessons of manipulation of physical matter into meaningful psychic patterns and this is the lesson you are all to learn before you leave your physical (earth) system for more advanced dimensions. These too are the individuals who are more psychically developed and have learned that the “physical laws” can be broken and matter can indeed be manipulated to behave contrary to the physical laws that govern your universe.

This is very important; you live in a world of great expectations, and if you don’t believe and expect something, you won’t see it. If you don’t think it is possible to see into the future, to communicate without words, to move and manipulate matter with the mind, you will dismiss these occurrences as coincidences, flukes or a psychic accident. There is one characteristic common to those who regularly experience paranormal events, they pay attention. In other words, paranormal events are always happening, some notice them and some don’t.
