The true nature of "reality and the related question of "the meaning" of life, has occupied the thoughts, searching and research of scientists and philosophers for thousands of years. Whole libraries could be filled with books and research papers. In recent years billions of dollars have been, and continue to be spent on theoretical physics projects, the latest of which is designed in the hope of finding the so called "God Particle".
Many questions arise from situation in addition to the big question itself, not the least of which is have all of the participants been looking in the right places?
In other words - can the answers actually be discovered through, and by a focus on the material plane of existence known as Earth and the physical Universe?
Before we can even begin to consider the nature of absolute "reality", we must first address the question of the nature "local reality", and how it is "experienced" and perceived, simply because these are the factors upon which all other research has been based.
To begin to address this question, look around you now.
What do you see?
Your "PC", the display upon which you are currently reading this web page, the "desk" upon which the display rests, the "chair" upon which you are seated, the "doors", "walls" and "ceiling" for example?
These objects may seem very "real" to you from your own personal perspective, but are these familiar everyday objects "real" in absolute terms?
Is Earth "real"? How about the Universe?
And the "instruments" used to sample "reality"?
The first question we must ask is "what is really "real"?
Are the things around you really "real"?
To begin to understand the true nature of the experience that most humans regard as "reality" or "life", we must first take a dispassionate look at how your perception of "reality", from the perspective of a human being "living" on Earth - your personal experience - is collated and ultimately perceived by you.
This then is the experiential process we must consider, take account of and apply as the basis for further discussion and investigation:
1. The five physical senses - sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch - continuously send data in the form of millions of tiny "packets" of electrical charges, collectively "sensory inputs" representing your immediate surrounds every second to your organic brain.
Note: The organic brain is not the Mind and neither is the organic brain the so called "seat of consciousness" - an erroneous idea in and of itself. The organic brain is best likened to as an immensely powerful supercomputer, but which still relies completely upon its programmer and systems analyst - the Subconscious Sphere of activity of the Mind most often considered to be the "Subconscious Mind.
2. The organic brain continuously collates and assembles the stream of sensory inputs received from the sensory organs from which it compiles a composite image or impression as a "best guess scenario". This composite "image", which actually encompasses all available sensory data, is then sent as a stream of data to the Subconscious sphere of Mind Principle - Subconsiousness - "Subconscious Mind".
Note: This is an entirely mechanical, programmed process with no inherent intelligence in and of itself
3. Subconscious sphere of Mind - Subconsciousness - then applies a wide range of learned "filters", acquired over the duration of the physical life experience to that point, based upon ongoing ideas, feelings, emotions, fears, self esteem, prejudices, beliefs and belief systems, religions, expectations of family, friends, society, perecptions on "money" and sense of security, concerns for family and much, much more, all received from the Conscious Sphere of Mind Principle - the Conscious Mind - during the ongoing experience which it recognises as "life".
Note: The Subconscious Mind Principle is sublime, and simply accepts these messages from the Conscious Sphere of Mind activity as "preferences" without question, as your own preferred "self-image", your "ideal self" - how you "see yourself".
The Subconscious Mind then applies these "preferences" to the composite image it has received from the organic brain, and then forwards it to the Conscious Mind. Conscious Mind duly accepts it the image as your own impression of your current "experience" in that moment.
This impression or image is always accepted by the Conscious Mind as "real" because the Subconscious Mind has already processed the image to ensure that it is in exact alignment with how you already perceive your own situation and "life experience", and therefore there are no contradictions, and you have no reason to Consciously doubt it.
So the "Subconscious Mind" is simply and only showing you only that which you already expect to see based upon your own perceptions, positive, negative or neutral of your own personal experience. Subconscious Mind is always "humouring" you.
Again this of course is a continuous process involving a constant stream of images or impressions being fed to your Conscious Mind from your Subconscious Mind based upon the sensory data received from your environment, with perception filters applied.
Note: It is erroneous to speak in terms of "Conscious Mind" or "Subconscious Mind" because they are both spheres of activity of the One Mind. We should always refer to these as Consciousness and Subconsciousness. However, in the interests of familiarity of terms, I will continue to use both as appropriate. There is also Superconsciousness.
Now the important point to note at this stage is that your personal experience is constantly being shaped by the Conscious observations, experiences and associated thought processes, feelings and emotions of the individual, who is generally simply reacting to and engaging in what they sincerely believe to be their "real" experience, but usually has little or no control, or even remote awareness of this process.
It is a very common human trait to focus much more upon the negative aspects of their experience, the corresponding worries, fears and negative expectations arising from which are being constantly received by, and being impressed upon the Subconscious Mind, reinforced by feelings, moods and emotions.
So again, Subconscious Mind is dutifully and immutably ensuring that your perception of your own experience accurately reflects your own perceived experience and expectations, thereby perpetually satisfying your own self-reinforcing perceptions, prejudices and beliefs, which can then spiral very quickly to what may be perceived as a "hopeless situation", as very often happens.
Now it should and must be noted at this point that this process has absolutely nothing whatsoever to with "attraction" as suggested by proponents of the "Law of Attraction". There is no "attraction" and there can never be "attraction" which is an entirely erroneous concept as generally presented. "Attraction" implies a duality - "attracting" "something" "to you" that exists independently "outside" of yourself. In truth there is no "outside", there is no duality and there can never be "attraction".
Nothing can exist "outside" of "The All" or within the context of The All. Every human, no matter what "picture" the physical senses, organic brain and conscious Mind conspire to present, is an inseparable aspect of All that Is, concurrently existing wherever The All Exists, encompassing The All, so it is completely erroneous to think in terms of "attracting" something from "somewhere" "outside" of you when in fact there is no "outside" of you.
Duality and separation are illusions arising from the physical senses and the conscious sphere of activity of Mind, but have absolutely no basis in fact.
But still nevertheless the Conscious Mind "sees" or more correctly "perceives" and believes itself to be a "separate" "person", the Ego. This indeed is where many of the issues facing humanity today originate, and is accordingly the origin and cause of most misery, suffering and conflict in the World.
"Conflict" can only exist as a concept when people believe in "us" and "them".
Now then we can move on to examining the "bigger picture" of experience that is presented to the conscious sphere of Mind Principle in the form of a "physical Universe" of "matter", to which human experience is inexorably related.
Most mainstream science today still subscribes to, and bases its entire philosophy and sphere of research around the model originally proposed by Newton, comprising a strictly 3 dimensional model of the Universe, consisting of structures "made of" what scientists have labelled as "matter", governed by "laws" contrived by science based upon a purely physical reference point.
Mainstream science, be it chemistry, biology or any of the other "materially" based sciences rely substantially upon this traditional 3D model of the Universe, with its constituent sub atomic particles, atoms and molecules, giving rise to carbon/hydrogen based "organic" life, without which these science would have no basis. The classroom wall of every school laboratory is adorned by the ubiquitous "periodic table of elements".
But there is also a fourth factor, sometimes considered as a "dimension " - "time".
Time is not always recognised as a "dimension" simply because it is not "tangible" - it cannot be "observed" as such - but is nevertheless inseparable from the three dimensions of "space", generally considered to be "length", "width" and "height". This is why theoretical physicists often refer to this model more appropriately as "space-time".
Einstein also encompassed "time" within the context of his "Special Theory of Relativity" which also takes accounts for associated factors such as "mass", "velocity" and "gravity". Ultimately of course "light" - in terms of photons" - must also be included.
A cornerstone of Astrophysics and related sciences is the so called "big bang theory".
But again, the "big bang theory" is based purely on the assumption that the entire "Universe" is, and always has existed in three physical dimensions plus time, and that accordingly all "matter" originated within the context of this 3D environment as a direct result of this mysterious but highly energetic and explosive primordial event.
This model would therefore seem to imply that in the "beginning" - before the "big bang" - the Universe was characterised by a pre-existent "void" of three dimensional "nothingness", which subsequent to the "big bang" event was populated with "matter" and other residual cosmic material.
It should be noted that in seeking the true nature and origins of "life" and "reality" within the context of the three dimensional Universe of matter, science is actually working with only a very, very tiny subset of the available data, and here is why.
This 3 dimensional Newtonian model of the "Universe", plus time, fails to take to account for the possibility or even probability of levels of higher Vibratory frequencies of Energy, beyond the confines of the traditional 3 dimensional model.
Most, if not all scientists, will happily accept the fact that the fundamental "medium" of the Universe is Energy, the primary characteristic of which is Vibration as measured by Frequency.
But why then would Vibration suddenly cease to exist beyond a certain level that just happens to correspond with the outer limits of "modern" physical scientific instruments and therefore ability to measure frequency?
"Out of sight, out of mind" perhaps?
Vibration of course also encompasses scientifically measurable non-physical forms of Energy such as photons of light, including the visible spectrum of colour, and the non-visible spectrum including but not limited to ultra violet, infra red, radio waves, microwaves, x-rays, gamma rays and so on, to the extent these can be measured using physical instruments of some type.
When we look at this logically however, it immediately becomes apparent that Vibration simply cannot and does cease at the point at which it can no longer be physically measured, but rather simply reflects the limitations of human made scientific instruments in measuring Vibration beyond a certain frequency.
However, when honestly and sincerely seeking the nature of something as fundamental as "Reality" itself, an "out of sight, out of mind" approach is hopelessly flawed quite simply because it only takes account of a very, very tiny fraction of the potential data, which just happens to be instrumentally measurable.
This of course has always been the case throughout history, with scientific models and understanding always being limited by the very nature of the instruments available. This is why a couple of hundred years ago diseases where attributed to all manner of causes, including "witchcraft", but only because bacteria and later viruses could not be observed, and therefore could not be factored in to the medicine at that period.
In reality this is an ongoing process, with scientific models always being based upon the current technology available for measurements. So this is an infinite process that can never determine the absolute answer.
Plain and simple - to put it bluntly - to assume that the 3 dimensional Universe of matter encompasses all "reality" with nothing beyond, simply because it cannot be detected, is no different at all to those scientists of just a few centuries ago who believed that the Earth is flat, and the centre of both the solar system and Universe. Those scientists were no less correct than current science for the same reasons.
The "3D Universe" culture is the modern day equivalent of the "Flat Earth Society".
For example - scientists still cannot understand why, if there was a so called "big bang" originating from "somewhere" within what is now considered to be the three dimensional "material Universe", that the Universe exhibits a very similar ambient temperature throughout. Surely if the "big bang" had originated "somewhere within" the known "physical Universe", considerable temperature fluctuations might be expected, relative to the distance of the point of measurement from this original primordial, explosive, extremely energetic "event".
Well the reason quite simply is this.
The origin of this "original" "creative" "event" was not some arbitrary "point" located "within" a notional pre-existent "3 dimensional void" just waiting to be filled, but rather from within much higher levels of Energy, far beyond the scope of the measurement potential of physical scientific instruments, an "event" originating at the very core of All "Creation, at the very highest frequency of Energy, the fundamental characteristic of which is Vibration, Energy that radiates uniformly "outwards" from the "epicentre".
We should note, in the interests of completeness, that it is entirely erroneous to speak in terms of "in the beginning", because there was no "beginning", and there is no "end", there is only the Perpetual, Eternal, Moment of Now. But in the interests of following this discussion through to a meaningful conclusion using the extremely crude language humans use to communicate, we must use the temporal scientific concepts that a majority may most readily relate to.
So then, as this uniform, immense radiation of Energy with infinite potential continued to radiate "outwards" from its epicentre - again "outwards" is an erroneous concept, but will suffice for the purposes of this illustration - the Vibratory frequency of this Native Universal Energy progressively slowed, and as it did so the potential of the Energy became increasingly "coarser" and "denser" as it radiated away from its Source, until eventually the Vibratory frequency of this Native Universal Energy with infinite potential, slowed to the point that facilitated the potential for Energy to differentiate in to what humans and mainstream material science recognise as "matter" with all its constituent elements.
Thus the culture of the Newtonian 3D Universe was born.
Before continuing I must make this crucial observation.
Simply because Energy reaches the Potential to differentiate into matter, does not necessarily imply that it actually will differentiate into matter - or indeed ever did differentiate. This concept pre-supposes that what humans call "matter" even tangibly exists or possesses the potential to exist - a pre-assumption which influences the perceptions of all investigating "matter" on that basis.
To that extent material science is a religion based upon a pre-existent entity.
As we will discuss later, Energy is inherently formless in nature and characteristics, existing only as "Potential", until a fundamental Principle is applied to it - Mind.
A good metaphor for this process of the potential for Energy to differentiate to matter would be the slowing down of the vibratory frequency of water molecules through the process of cooling. Eventually, as the frequency of Vibration of molecules of water slows to a certain point, zero degrees Celsius assuming the water is pure, the water changes its structure from "liquid" water into the "solid" material known as "ice".
The great quantum physicist David Bohm recognised this behaviour in the context of Native Universal Energy when he referred to the nature of the physical Universe of "matter" as "frozen Light" - a really excellent and extremely perceptive metaphor.
In Spiritual terms Energy is also known as "Light" - not photons of "light" that most humans associate with as the opposite of "dark", but actually primordial Light.
Therefore the metaphor for the creation and characteristics of the physical Universe as "frozen Light" is very perceptive and appropriate indeed. But then again David Bohm was clearly a highly remarkable scientist in my view, who was only concerned with the absolute truth as opposed to any form of self-interest, notoriety or desire to "fit in" with the paradigm, a person, as well as scientist, who had a considerable grasp on the true nature of the entire Universe, not only the observable physical Universe, even back then. This is largely because he was able to expand the horizon of his personal sphere of comprehension, far beyond that which could simply be "measured" instrumentally.
So you see the "creation" event did not originate at a random "point" within a notional pre-existent "empty void "waiting" to be "filled" with stars, planet and other cosmic material, subsequently radiating "across" this notional pre-existent 3D void.
What humans conceive of as "Creation" actually originated Within, at infinitely higher levels of frequency of Vibration, far beyond that which can ever be measured through crude scientific instrumentation.
Source Energy radiating progressively outwards until ultimately attaining the Potential to differentiate to the 3 dimensional material environment now known as the "Universe".
Note: The word "Potential" is crucial to this discussion as we will investigate in due course.
Now this creative process not only gave rise to the origination of the Potential - but not necessarily actual - basis for the 3D physical Universe of matter, but also to All to spheres of Life and Being at all Vibratory frequencies of Native Universal Energy.
At frequencies of Vibration "between" 3D material potential and Source, First Cause, we find spheres of Potential mystically known as the Etheric, Astral and Spiritual "planes".
What people think of as the "afterlife" - the "place" where people "go" to after they "die" - actually does exist as a very "narrow", relative to the Whole, band of Energy at a massively higher Vibratory frequency than that of Earth, and which therefore cannot be measured or observed with scientific instruments. This does not make them "imaginary" in some way - it simply means that they cannot currently be instrumentally substantiated.
Even so, the "afterlife" - Astral Spheres of Energy - are still only, relatively speaking, just "beyond" 3 dimensional Universal potential, characterised by an infinitesimally low frequency of Vibration comparative to Source.
And this then is why the entire 3D Universe is measured to be of a substantially uniform ambient temperature throughout, originating uniformly "from the inside out", from a 3D perspective, not from some arbitrary "point" within a pre-existent 3D void of nothingness.
In describing the nature of "All that Is", I frequently make use of the humble Apple as a useful and familiar metaphor.
If we let the Apple represent the Entire, Complete "Universe" of "All that Is" - "All in Creation" if you prefer - then this is what we may observe:
At the very "Core" of the Apple is "Source" Energy, First Cause, Source Mind, - Supreme Intelligence - the Only True Objective Reality - Existing at the very highest Energy frequency of Vibration.
The physical Newtonian Universe of "matter" may be represented in this model by the very thin outer skin of the Apple, analogous to when Energy Vibratory Potential slowed to a frequency at which it achieved the Potential to differentiate in to what humans now regard as "matter" - "frozen Light" as David Bohm metaphorically suggested.
Between the skin of the Apple and its Core we find the flesh of the Apple. The flesh of the Apple is analogous to the vast majority of "All Creation" - the Whole - the 99.99999%.... of Energy spectrum between the Apple skin and the core - Source.
Let the flesh of the Apple then represent the Infinite Continuum of Energy, the fundamental characteristic of which is Vibration, with Potential, existing between the skin and the core, where may be found the Infinite and diverse Spheres of Life, Mind and Being far beyond the reach of normal conscious human perception and certainly of scientific instruments.
Again let me stress again that applying numbers, limits, and even words such as "the" are fundamentally flawed, because ultimately we are referring to the Infinite. These words will however suffice in the interests of understanding, and in the complete absence of more appropriate language.
Most mainstream science, even today, denies the existence of these higher levels of Energy and Vibration, simply because they can neither be measured, substantiated or otherwise quantified by the physical instruments upon which their entire paradigm rests.
As previously mentioned, David Bohm was a notable exception. His thesis on "Wholeness and the Implicate Order" remains a practical model of all "Creation", taking into account Spheres of potential beyond the concepts of the Newtonian model of the physical Universe. Indeed Bohm later even takes into account Consciousness which, with Mind, is Principle, without which nothing could or would exist.
Just under the skin of our metaphoric Apple then lies the Etheric Sphere of Energy - this is where people first find themselves after the change known as "death", and also the realm of the entities known as "ghosts" - departed human beings who have become "stuck" for various reasons - usually due to some form of emotional attachment to Earth.
Just beyond the Etheric Spheres of Energy Frequency lies the Astral Spheres. It is to these Astral Planes of Energy that humans usually transition after leaving the physical body during the change known as "death". The Astral spheres are sometimes therefore more frequently referred to as the "Afterlife" or much more erroneously as "heaven".
Without becoming too deeply involved in our Apple metaphor, and beyond the scope of this discussion, suffice it to say that it is the destiny of all humans to commence the Conscious Journey at the skin of the Apple - analogous to Earth or other physical planet - and to Evolve through the seamless layers of the "flesh" of the Apple - representing Energy at increasing frequencies and resolutions of Vibration - until finally, through the process of Evolution and Perfection, the Core of the Apple from Whence we came in the "beginning" is ultimately attained, and with it the potential to reunite, or "merge".
This Evolutionary Process takes place as Experience assimilated by the Complete Spiritual "I", giving rise to ever increasing degrees of Perfection and thereby corresponding increase in the Frequency and Resolution of Vibration associated with the Unique Energy Field that represents and identifies Who we Are.
Individuality, within the context of The All, is represented by our Unique Energy Configuration - Energy Field - which changes in Nature and increases in Vibratory Frequency as we Evolve through Experience during the process of Perfection.
As Individual Energy Field Increases in Vibration, Transition automatically continues to the precise Sphere of Energy Frequency of the corresponding Native Vibration, thus facilitating a seamless and automatic progression, which is always Perfect in Nature.
This then is the solution of the nature of Spiritual Evolution, ultimately driven by an Individual, Conscious quest for Perfection, a quest that is intimately incorporated in to our Spiritual Nature, through Experience made possible by Individual Freewill.
Earth - indeed the entire physical Universe - may be regarded metaphorically as the "Kindergarten of Life".
The Etheric and Astral Planes are a very close extension of that same Kindergarten.
Why then is this necessary?
Well quite simply because only when sufficient Experience has been gained through cycles of physical "incarnation", is there a natural progression to increasingly more responsible and powerful roles within the context of the greater spheres of Life and Reality within the Greater Universe as a Whole, far beyond even the remotest comprehension of most Earthly humans, a role carrying with it massive responsibilities that can only be continued after the complete assimilation of appropriate Experience, characterised by attaining corresponding frequency of Vibration of the Spiritual Body.
Allowing a human to "graduate" directly from Earth to such levels of responsibility - even if it were possible - would be akin to giving a 3 year old child the trigger of fully armed thermonuclear atomic weapon to play with, such would be the disruptive potential of the situation.
So the initial phase of incarnations - experiential windows - on Earth and/or other planets is an absolutely fundamental and necessary process, wherefrom every Unique Energy Field - Human or other sentient Being - must graduate before moving on to the infinitely, and to humans at this stage incomprehensibly, greater glories and responsibilities.
Each phase in this process continually facilitates the progression through inner Spheres of Energy, Vibration, Life, Mind and Consciousness, glorious far, far beyond the consciousness and even very remotest comprehension of most Earthly humans. The Higher Self knows very well however, and will continually encourage Its fragments, or "representatives" to pursue graduation and experience of these these greater glories.
This is also the solution to the metaphor of the "fallen angel" known as "Lucifer".
"Lucifer is a metaphor for the Human Ego Mind which "left or "fell from" "Source Mind", "Christ Mind" in the "beginning" , "cast down" to the physical Universe of matter.
As previously discussed, it is the objective and indeed destiny, whether comprehended or not, of every Human Being to "reunite" with "Christ Mind" through the Divine process of Evolution and Perfection through the medium of Experience - thus fulfilling the cycle.
In theological or metaphorical terms, depending on your perspective, "Lucifer" reunites with "Christ" or if you prefer, the "Son" is reunited with the "Father". Of course there is no "gender" beyond Earth, so the concepts of the masculine are entirely erroneous.
But you see this is no metaphorical "punishment". Quite the contrary in fact. It is rather a metaphor for Divine process applying to everyone - indeed all Life - and should accordingly be Joyfully embraced and never feared.
A word at this point about "Reincarnation" or the process of experiencing multiple "lives" on Earth or other planets.
Due to the physical nature of Earth, it is generally impossible to gather sufficient Experience to "graduate" in a single "lifetime" or even hundreds or thousands of "lifetimes".
The true, Evolving Self is generally known as the "Higher Self" - our Individuality - Who resides within much higher Energy levels - far beyond the Astral - but still only a relatively "short" Vibration way from the metaphoric Apple skin relative to the All as a Whole.
"Higher Self" is our Eternal Individuality.
Note: "Higher Self " is a recognised term which would be more appropriately described as "Inner Self". In absolute terms the concepts of "higher", "lower" even "inner are duality based and accordingly do not exist. They will however suffice for the purposes of gaining access to the considerations encompassed within these discussions.
Each "life" on Earth is experienced through and as a Personality of that Individuality.
The more Personalities our Individuality "sends to Earth", and/or other planets in the material Universe, the more Experience is returned to Eternal Individuality, and the more complete Higher Self - Individuality - becomes.
So Higher Self - Individuality - usually sends numerous "messengers" to Earth - or other planet - as both genders, all races, countries, cultures and circumstances, until finally a messenger attains the ultimate objective of Enlightenment while still in the context of a physical body.
This then signifies the end of this initial but crucial phase of Individual Evolution - "incarnational" cycle - where the Enlightened "fraction" of the Higher Self returns to Higher Self Who then assumes the Personality of the "Enlightened Incarnation". So Individuality continues with its acquired Personality, ceases to be a "Higher Self" - there are no longer any aspects of Itself to be "Higher" than - to the next phase of the greater Evolutional cycle.
I must dispel another prevalent misunderstanding before continuing - that of so called "past lives".
Each messenger of the Higher Self - each Personality - experiences one single "life" on Earth, or other planet, only, and then, after the physical body "dies" - no longer viable as an organic vehicle - transitions to the Etheric and then Astral Spheres of Energy in most cases.
Enlightened or Evolved Spirits or Beings who came to Earth for a specific purpose or "mission" - for example the figures known as "Jesus" or the "Buddha" - are exceptions, as are Beings known as "Avatars" and also others, simply returning directly to the Spiritual Sphere of Energy Frequency from whence they came.
The Astral Energy Sphere is an environment where Earth people usually feel completely at "home" or even regard as "heaven", simply because they can experience anything they can possibly imagine at will, without the needs of "money", "work" and all those other typical trappings and instruments of control of human society.
The "afterlife" also seems much more "solid", "real" and "substantial" than Earth.
Astral residents will linger until they have fully satiated all materially motivated desires, infatuations, additions and ultimately concepts accumulated as a result of Earth experience, which experiences are eventually recognised and assimilated as the illusions or "delusions" they really are. The journey of the Personality to the Individuality of Higher Self with a unique package of experience contributing to the Whole potential Individuality that Higher Self represents at that stage of Evolution, on the path of Evolving Spiritual "I" within the context of All.
This is why it is totally and completely erroneous to speak or think in terms of "past lives". There is absolutely no such thing as a "past life" simply because each "life" represents a complete cycle in its own right originating and terminating with Higher Self.
Equally as erroneous is the concept of "sequential" lives - in other words the idea that every "person" experiences a sequential series of "lives" or "incarnations", each at a progressively "later" period in Earth's history than the previous, thus giving rise to the erroneous notion that a "past life" took place for example in Ancient Egypt, or Babylon, or very popularly Atlantis and so on.
"Past lives" are invariably perceived as glamorous - never "hard" or "ordinary". Everyone likes to think of themselves as living as a "King", "Princess" or famous figure such as Jesus in "previous lives".
This is in turn responsible for the equally erroneous idea of "past life regressions" where, under hypnosis or other form of access to the Subconscious Sphere of Mind, a person may "discover" their "identity" and physical circumstances during a "previous" incarnation, or "life" in Earth's history.
In actual fact - all "lives" - Personalities - "incarnations" - take place concurrently, and not therefore sequential at all. This is true because our Individuality, our Totality, our Higher, Spiritual "I" Self, resides on a Vibration far beyond the human concept of "time".
Higher Self knows precisely the nature of Experiences required in order to achieve the level of "completeness" and therefore of Perfection and Evolution required to complete this initial phase on the great Path, to facilitate moving on to greater experiences.
Individuality, Higher Self, therefore "fills in" experiential "gaps" in Its "completeness" by choosing, as far as possible from the range of possibilities, the circumstances that would best facilitate the opportunity of gathering a specific aspect of required experience.
To this end Higher Self chooses the time-line relative to the concept of Earth "time", country, culture, circumstances and parents which provide the best probability of gaining that particular "packet" of experience.
Yes you chose your own parents, and your own children likewise chose you, so always treat each other with the greatest Love and respect, while keeping in Mind that "age" is utterly meaningless, and that your own kids, while you may perceive them as "children", may well be far more Spiritually mature than you. This is particularly true during this Transitional era where numerous Spiritually advanced children are being born to assist parents and humanity with their particular abilities, particularly through the Arts and any ability with the profound potential to influence the human Mind and Vibratory Frequency.
A metaphor that may assist in the understanding of this process of "concurrent incarnation" is that of a wooden cart wheel, with its hub and outer rim connected by its spokes.
Consider the physical Universe as the outer rim of the wheel, Higher Self as the hub, and with each Personality or "incarnation" represented by each distinct spoke in the wheel.
Even as you read this you, as your Higher Self, may be experiencing alternative concurrent "incarnations" as, for example, a Neanderthal women, a medieval gentleman land owner, a teenage soldier in the trenches of the first world war, an Egyptian Queen, or numerous other such "role playing games" - all in the same Eternal Moment of Now.
You are not aware of this situation simply because each Personality experiences each distinct but related incarnation through the mediation of the individual Conscious Ego Mind, which actually represents only a very tiny subset of the "Higher" Individual Mind.
The individual Ego Mind of each personality is bound by the current temporal experience as it relates to the human concept and perception of "time" and "space" which it chooses to subscribe to. Only Higher Self has a complete perspective over all concurrent incarnations, which, in any case Higher Self sees only as "circumstances" with experiential potential or opportunities. Never "ages" in the "history" of Earth or another planet. Higher Self is not concerned with "time", only Evolutionary Potential.
As each personality, incarnation, Ego concludes its mission on Earth, the organic body "dies" and the Ego, the Personality - the Soul - leaves the physical shell they once used on Earth, to begin the journey back to the Individual "I", Higher Self. Upon reaching Higher Self, the package of experience, to the extent it has been attained, is then assimilated to the Whole Self Individuality, Which thus expands and accordingly becomes more Evolved and Complete in the only objective of progression beyond the material incarnational process, to attain Complete Spiritual "I".
Again though, all words I use in any way suggesting "time" are for lack more appropriate language only.
There is an interesting "anomaly" arising in that the Astral spheres - the "afterlife" - existing beyond the perception and experience of "time", there may well be many thousands of "you" as different "Personalities" of the very same "Individuality" "living" in the Astral, on the same "plane "of Vibratory frequency that the Sphere of your Conscious awareness currently occupies.
Thus you can even meet up with "each other", or whole groups of "you", without being even aware of it.
To understand this apparent anomaly better, it is a good idea to think in terms of Individual Conscious Awareness being Partitioned in to "Personal Spheres of Conscious Awareness", each of Which is "firewalled" from the "other", so that there is no "leakage" of experience which may influence and thereby compromise or corrupt other spheres of Conscious Awareness.
Experience is only viable when gained in an autonomous context. This is what gives rise to the apparent experience of an "individual" life on Earth without any greater "meaning" or context.
So returning to the main issue of our discourse on the nature of "Reality" - as a human on Earth, for now, you are simply experiencing a Personal sphere of conscious awareness, independent of concurrent experiences of your Individuality, through the mediation of the five physical senses, in turn both generated and "coloured" by the Subconscious Mind in accordance with the nature of your own ongoing thoughts, feelings, emotions, expectations, experiences and other spheres of Conscious Mind Principle.
Before continuing we should, in the interest of completeness, re-visit the role of "time" in the context of human experience.
"Time" as humans know and experience it simply does not exist except to the extent it is perceived to be experienced and believed to exist.
Time, to the extent in which it is experienced at all, is entirely subjective and never objective. Even the subjectivity is relative to the perspective of the experience.
Humans usually attempt to reduce "time" to an objective experience by arbitrarily introducing methods of measurement based upon the relationships between the Earth, the Moon and the Sun. This infatuation with what in reality is no more than a "concept" has wrought all manner of confusion and misery upon humanity, and is still the basis of much confusion and misunderstanding - particular within mainstream sciences.
In reality there is no "time" - there is no "space" there is only the Present Moment of Now - Which is Eternal.
If you were to place yourself in a permanently illuminated - or darkened if you prefer - room without windows, clocks or other mechanical means of measuring "time" - what happens to your perception of "time"? Very quickly you have no idea what "minute", "hour", "day", "month" or year it is. You can guess of course, but you would invariably be wrong. As your isolation progressed, any best guesses" about "time", "date", "year" would become increasingly flawed. Once we remove all the mechanical human reference points, "time" immediately becomes meaningless.
The neurotransmitters in your brain that regulate your sleep and waking cycles - melatonin, serotonin for example - would reset, and you would lose all orientation with your previous concept of "time". You may become disoriented and even distressed.
If you lived on a different planet, of a different size, with a different speed of rotation, distance from its "Sun", with or without one or more "moons" - Jupiter for example - then your "clocks" and "calendars" would look completely different. You would still live in the same physical Universe subject to the same Universal Principles, but your measurement and concept of "time" would be unrecognisable.
Is "time" therefore "correct" on Earth or on the other planet, for example Jupiter?
It should be apparent that "time" cannot be measured because "time" is a subjective experience, not an objective Principle, and in any case only exists as a concept within the context of space. If we look at "time" dispassionately, we can clearly see that:
Time is not Principle.
Time is not constant.
Time is not objective.
Time therefore cannot be considered even as a "dimension" or factor in equations.
Again, the reason humans feel "tired" at "night" and "awake" during the day, is simply because the Conscious Sphere of Mind has convinced Subconscious Sphere of Mind that "time" is "real" and "measured in a certain way" specifically with reference to photons of Energy entering the eyes as "light", or absence of photons as a lack of "light". Subconscious Mind then reproduces those expectations by programming the biorhythms of the organic body accordingly through the manipulation of amino acids, neurotransmitters in the brain such as melatonin, serotonin and dopamine, which in turn provides the experience of "wakefulness", "sleepiness" and mental capacity and so on.
Having now addressed the Personal layer of Experience which is controlled by the Conscious Sphere of Mind, the Personality, also known as the Ego, let us now move on to the next layer - the material or physical layer to which the Ego Mind relates.
We have already established the relationship between matter, the organic brain, the Subconscious Mind and the Conscious Ego Mind relative to the human concept of "time" which is entirely subjective, never objective, never fixed in nature and cannot be a constant.
But what if very reference points for space and time had no basis?
Let me begin this part of our investigation with the benefit of another metaphor that many may relate to - the trilogy of movies entitled " The Matrix".
In the context of the Matrix the inhabitants or more correctly participants, "live" within the context of populated setting, typical of a metropolitan environment on Earth.
But the twist in the movie is that these people are soon shown not to be "real" and neither is their environment real.
The participants are instead neurally connected to an immensely powerful computer environment, that simulates a late twentieth century Earth environment and "lifestyle".
All of these participants seem to happily continue their daily activities just as you do - they eat, sleep, entertain themselves, meet in groups and so on - without ever understanding their absolute true nature.
They have no reference point for "true nature".
As a physical human the Matrix may be used as a metaphor for the Earth environment, analogous to a typical metropolitan setting, with accuracy.
When Neo was first rescued from the Matrix and shown its true nature by Morpheus, he was then able to free himself from neural network to which he had been connected, the illusion of the Matrix, to choose a more substantial reality depicted as "Zion".
Once Neo realised the truth of the nature of the Matrix, he no longer regarded it as "real".
Later Neo would have the ability to consciously "plug-in" to the Matrix at will, interact with the environment, and change the very nature of the Matrix according to his needs and situation, knowing that he was not subject to any of the limitations he once believed.
Now consider for a moment the material world that you are so familiar with and believe in is the "Matrix", and you are Neo or Trinity. Now you have an excellent metaphor for the basis of your own physical experience on Earth.
Everything you see around you - your PC, desk, chairs, drink, food - everything you almost certainly consider to be composed of "material" of some kind - exists only because your physical senses, organic brain and Conscious Ego Mind say these "things" exists and have substance and basis in fact.
But what is "material"?
"Molecules and atoms" you may reply.
But what do "molecules" and "atoms" consist of?
If you know much about physics you might reply "sub-atomic particles". You may even mention protons, neutrons, electrons, quarks, leptons and so on.
But here is the paradox.
None of these "sub-atomic particles" and their derivatives actually really "exists", in other words can be perceived, unless a conscious attempt is made to observe or "measure", i.e. quantify or qualify them in some way.
Quantum Physicists know this paradox all too well as the "measurement paradox".
Since these sub-atomic particles are the basic components of "matter", the same apparent paradox must equally apply to the larger derivatives the same particles - elementary atoms, molecules and ultimately the chemical and organic compounds that form physical substance of "matter", and from which everything you "possess" in your daily life is "manufactured".
An even greater apparent paradox then is that as physical humans experience within the context of an organic body, comprised of these same organic materials with its "organs", blood, bone and other life supporting systems - these too must also be ultimately composed of the same atomic and sub-atomic material as your surroundings, and therefore it follows that your body is subject to exactly the same characteristics and paradoxes.
So do these "building blocks" of "matter" have any "existence" or basis in fact at all, if, as certainly appears to be the case, they only "appear" or more specifically are only perceivable, qualifiable and quantifiable during the process of deliberate observation?
Clearly when an organic chemist is combining chemicals to produce a chemical reaction, or creating complex organic molecules from basic carbon, hydrogen based "building blocks", the whole process must be carefully controlled measured, monitored, qualified, quantified and documented in order to record the "observed" result of the process.
If the elementary atoms form the basis of molecules which in turn form the basis of the material compounds used to "manufacture products", then the only conclusion that we can possibly arrive at if we are totally objective about it, is that every "thing" that humans currently perceive as "materially real", only exist because someone chose to "subscribe", or "opt-in" to its very existence through the process of observation, supported by past experience and belief in its reality.
In other words the sense of material reality is an entirely programmed, i.e. learned response, arising from previous expectations, experience, and beliefs - as well as many other factors that are deeply embedded in Subconsciousness.
This clearly adds a further level of factors to consider in the context of what is "real".
So let us now review that which already know about the role of the sense organs and organic brain in perceiving your envirponment.
Millions of sensory inputs per second from the five organic sense organs are fed to the organic brain, which mechanically, without any sort of inherent intelligence, collates these electrical impulses to produce a composite "image" or more accurately impression, as a "best guess scenario" in accordance with quality of the information received.
If the brain is damaged in some way, through physical, trauma, condition such as an apoplexy or cerebrovascular incident, or through toxicity of some kind, then its capacity to mechanically process the data presented by the five physical senses is compromised, along with its ability to assemble an accurate impression of its relationship with its environment to forward to the Subconscious Mind.
As the computer programming saying goes "garbage in, garbage out", so the data sent for the attention of Subconscious Mind, which is infinitely intelligent but can only act upon what it receives or perceives, is "scrambled", along with any necessary output processes such as "speech", motion, recognition and so on.
The "Mind" is still intact as is consciousness and intelligence, but as with a computer - if a circuit board becomes faulty, the data being output - if it is still functional - cannot be relied upon or may even present a totally erroneous output.
The organic brain is therefore analogous a super-computer, which sends a stream of data to the Subconscious Mind in the form of composite images or impressions. The Subconscious Mind then in accordance with ongoing thoughts feelings, emotions, beliefs, prejudices, expectations and other learned and programmed data originating within the Conscious Sphere of Mind activity, re-processes the data before "outputting" the data to be displayed on the "screen" of the Conscious Mind, which people then call their "experience", sense of being, spatial awareness - ultimately "life".
Ultimately however it is the Conscious Sphere of Mind - the Ego - which both determines and accepts the nature of its own experience, so it is in fact self-perpetuating illusion, which becomes more interesting as we will see later.
When "mentally disabled" people "die", even those with most profound brain damage, they are freed from the layer of processing performed by the organic brain to experience Mind directly, and they feel "whole" once again, with as much mental ability as anyone, as if they were never subjected to the perceived limitations arising from the brain.
"Mentally disabled" people are not actually "mentally disabled" at all - they are "brain disabled". Such people experience perfectly "normal" dreams as everyone else, simply because dreams originate within the sphere of the Subconscious Mind and experienced by the Conscious Mind, not at some notional point in the organic brain.
Lengthening or slowing of brainwave activity, as takes place during deep relaxation, day dreaming, meditation, trance and sleep, facilitates an expansion of consciousness and awareness, beyond the narrow confines imposed by waking brainwave activity. This is also the basis of what are known as "mystical", metaphysical, or even "occult" abilities, even though these abilities are completely natural. Most at this time remain unaware of them, unlike our ancient ancestors, native tribes, and of course dedicated practitioners of these abilities.
Moving on with the process of perceiving experience - the composite image from the organic brain is presented to the Subconscious Sphere of Mind, which then applies a set of learned filters based upon the acquired beliefs, expectations, intentions and all those other learned and programmed feelings, beliefs, thoughts, prejudices, expectations, reinforced by the emotions, from the Sphere of the Conscious Mind - this is a continual process - before "forwarding" it to the Conscious Mind as the completed image, with all expected beliefs, biases, expectations reflected and fully "factored in", which the Conscious Mind, the Ego, happily accepts as "experience" in that moment.
In fact the "experience" has been skewed by the Subconscious Mind to make it acceptable to the Ego, otherwise the Ego would reject summarily reject, or at least disregard it, otherwise the person would rapidly become confused, disoriented and perhaps "psychotic", and would soon be unable to function at all within their environment.
Again, the Conscious Mind never, ever thinks to question the image presented, because the Subconscious Mind has ensured that it is already in complete alignment with its ongoing thought learned and programmed expectations. So the Conscious Mind, the Ego, remains happy and feels secure within its own microcosm of experience.
But the crucial factor to consider here is that in the case of most people, who have no conscious Mind Power over their own experience, the Conscious Mind is perpetually subscribing to its own illusion - an illusion that the Subconscious Mind always satisfies. So from the perspective of the person, their experience is always "correct" and "real", regardless of whether it is perceived as "good", "bad" or indifferent.
If, as sometimes happens, the Conscious Mind does choose to reject the images presented to it by the Subconscious Mind, based upon the composite image received from the brain and sensory organs, the person generally regards it as an "illusion".
This applies to all levels of human experience, from the personal to the collective, since all Mind is ultimately One and therefore intimately connected and inclusive with "each other" at all levels, and with All that Is within Universal Mind.
Therefore total "experience" from the perspective of each person, is a function of both Personal Subjective Experience and the Collective of all Personal Subjective Human Experience within the same Sphere of Consciousness, independent of time or "history".
Therefore if one person chooses to subscribe to the existence of a particular object, person or experience, regardless of "distance" or "time" which do not exist, even as illusion, within the Sphere of the Subconscious Mind where the object is originally perceived, then the same data relating to the object is instantly also available to the Whole Collective Human Mind on the same Vibratory Frequency, to subscribe to at will.
Actually this "collective human experience" is perpetually present at a Subconscious level, so the Subconscious Mind determines what to allow or reject based upon the sphere of comprehension, imagination and programming of the personality, the Ego.
No human is capable of experiencing or perceiving "anything" beyond their current sphere of imagination, comprehension or programming, because their Subconscious Mind is not resonating on the same frequency of the Collective Mental Plane in which they are focused in accordance with their own relative state of Evolution.
I mention this to pre-empt any objection that people are frequently aware of the "existence" of lots of "things" before actually physically "seeing" or "experiencing" them.
For example a shopping trip where you may visit a shopping mall to "look" for "things" of the sort that you may wish to purchase, but which you have never seen or perhaps considered before in the case of an "impulse buy" - certainly not down to fine details.
Another example is taking a vacation to a foreign country that you have never visited before, to "see" and "experience" the "sights" that are completely "new".
In both cases - the "products" in the "shopping mall" or the "sights" in the "foreign country" are only available to your sphere of conscious awareness during the process of experience and observation, because they are the persistent Thought Forms due to the observations, experience and programming of millions or billions of other "people" throughout "history" - again "time" not applicable in the realm of Subconsciousness.
Towns and cities for example are shared, collective experiences, simply because the Conscious Minds of thousands or millions of people subscribe to and interact with them continually, as has been the case in the "past", and therefore choose to interact with them every day as "normal" within the sphere of their own comprehension, imagination and programmed beliefs and expectations as they relate to that environment.
In this way the shared experience is perpetually perpetuated to the Collective, "shared" Sphere of the Human Mind on the corresponding Vibratory Sphere of the Mental Plane that anyone at the same Mental Vibratory Frequency also may choose to subscribe to at a Subconscious level, even if they have never "seen" them before, and which is accepted by the Conscious Ego Mind as "normal" within their own sphere of "normality".
Again - this is so due to the fact that Personal Mind and Collective Mind as well as the Conscious and Subconscious aspects, are really One, simply being Spheres of Activity within the overall context of Universal Mind, and can therefore share and experience either at a Personal or Collective but always subjective level.
Due to the comparatively low Vibration of matter and the intervention of the concept of "time", these collective experiences - towns, cities etc - can persist for many "millions of years" - long after they have been lost and forgotten at a Conscious level by the peoples that originally "built" them.
This is so simply because these structures or remains are still part of the "fabric" of the Collective Human Subconscious Experience which is known to the Subconscious Sphere of Mind. The Subconscious Mind, which is not subject to "time" or "space" retains all knowledge of all human history, which it will render Conscious as appropriate.
This for example is the basis of "Remote Viewing".
Remote Viewing implies overcoming "time" and "space" to "view" or more accurately "sense" objects or events which are non-local, and/or non-temporal, but in fact to the Subconscious Sphere of Mind locality and temporality are not relevant, All exists Now.
Now is the only Moment there Is, regardless of what human clocks and calendars or history books contrive to report.
As an example that can be tested, we can take a look at the sphere of experience after the much dreaded change known as "death".
In the next Vibratory sphere of human experience, for most people the Astral Spheres - or the "Afterlife"- which exist at a much higher Vibratory Frequency of Energy, beyond the concept and illusions of "space" and "time" relative to Earth, "experience" is much more transient, fluid and dynamic in nature than in the much lower Earth Vibratory Frequency of the temporal "time-space" and matter dependent environment of Earth.
No atomic or other particles exist in the Astral, or are necessary to the environment. The Astral Vibratory Spheres of Experience, of which there are potentially infinite, the environment comprises of Thought Forms of Energy which are decoded directly.
If a person in the Astral chooses to experience "something", or believe or fear they are in the presence of "something", whatever they wish to experience, believe in or fear will "manifest" and be experienced instantly at the "speed of thought".
When the person becomes bored and ceases to focus on that particular "thing", the "thing - a Transient Energy Thought Form - instantly dissipates back to native Energy potential where it may coalesce to become another Thought Form under the influence of Mind in its infinite states.
So in the "Afterlife" of the Astral, the processes we have been discussing relative to the material world, may be actually experienced and thereby proven instantly, thereby providing personal experience and evidence of these immutable Principles which apply to all Spheres of Vibratory Frequencies with the All of Universal Mind.
In the Astral the more a "person" or "people" - duality is still accepted accordingly experienced there as on Earth, interact with any such created experience or locale, the more persistent it will become.
Most Thought Forms are completely transient in nature, arising from "fleeting thoughts". But when attention and focus is applied and fuelled by emotions and intent, the "Thought Form" becomes less transient and therefore more "persistent" in nature to the extent we can refer to duality based "persistency" in a timeless, spaceless, environment.
Everyone in the Astral Spheres - the "afterlife" - believes in exactly the same material form and function they were so used to, and often indeed addicted to and dependant on while living on Earth. So when people "pass-on" and duly arrive in their new Astral environment, often welcomed by various generations of previously "deceased" relatives, where they can experience anything they can possibly imagine and comprehend, they believe that all their proverbial "Christmas's have come at once"- like a "kid in a candy store".
After the novelty wears off somewhat, they might experiment by creating a more enduring environment or experience that they feel most comfortable with, but always within the context of the collective environment upon the Energy Vibratory Frequency of the Astral Plane in which they are focussed in that moment.
This propensity for Astral residents to re-create familiar Earth environments is the main reason why most recently "deceased" people immediately notice that the "afterlife" looks and feels remarkably familiar - so much so in fact that very often newly transitioned people do not even realise and believe they have "died" and "passed on" at all, especially in cases of sudden, violent and unexpected death due for example to trauma or accident. These newly arrived residents consequently need to be "convinced" by other residents that they are in fact no longer in fact "living on Earth" - a process followed by a thorough debriefing that can be quite extensive.
This is reinforced by the fact that the very nature of their own beliefs and expectations has taken the newly "deceased" person to a sphere of Astral Vibratory Frequency of very similar characteristics to their just departed Earth life, and accordingly populated by people with a very similar mindset and beliefs. This is one reason why the "afterlife" is so harmonious compared to Earth.
On Earth personalities of every type of personality, character trait, beliefs, Evolutionary level and so on live within the same environment - a major reason for human conflict.
I should reiterate that there is not just one Astral Plane - there is a potentially infinite "number" of these planes or spheres of Vibration, all very slightly out of phase with each other, corresponding to every human character trait, belief, culture, history and so on. As humans on Earth advance technologically and people "pass on" from these experiences, new spheres of Energy are created by the Minds of these people based upon Earth experience. So everyone making the transition feels immediately "at home".
But "amazing" though the infinite possibilities of the Astral spheres seem to be, where all desires are realised instantly, this is also a trap in many respects, because once the people there become so used to, and often infatuated with this utopian world, experiencing anything they have ever desired on Earth, instantly, without the need for "money" or "work" or "government" any other condition or restriction, then the novelty can so totally consume the Mind and Consciousness of the person, that it prevents them from evolving and progressing. They become lost in their own illusion or delusion.
Ultimately of course all free themselves of a persistent experience, often with the help of others, realise how frivolous the experience really is. Wishing for a more "real" and fulfilling experience, Vibratory Frequency increases, and automatic transition to a "higher" - actually inner - plane of Energy with a the correspondingly higher Vibratory Frequencies and Energy Thought Form characteristics. The person then needs to reconcile the experience of this Energy Frequency through the process of realisation so they can move on again. This eternal phasing out of one Energy Frequency and on to the next may be likened to infinite "deaths" and "rebirths", of which Earth is the first.
Of course the "afterlife" generally seems much more "solid", "real" and "vibrant" than Earth ever did, or could, due to the much higher, finer vibration of Astral Energy Frequency, with a spectrum of colours and sounds way beyond physical human comprehension, experienced without the extremely crude but necessary Earthly organic apparatus of the five physical senses operating through the mechanical organic brain.
Comparing the experience of the Astral Spheres with Earth can be likened to the difference between watching a new movie filmed in high definition on a very old tube based TV with its low, curved, flickery, pixellated, "blocky" image screen, and a modern High Definition Flat Screen TV.
To people in the Astral, and increasingly so as they progress inwards, visiting or "viewing" Earth - the Earth plane seems like a horribly dull, dreary, misty sort of environment, visiting which is as like wading through a muddy swamp in dense fog and drizzle. They also fully perceive the thoughts, feelings and emotions originating from the collective people on Earth, which, to them, is like experiencing their worst nightmare. This anomaly will be fully corrected as Earth completes the Vibratory Transition.
Increasing frequencies provide for increasingly higher, finer, more detailed and defined and refined resolution and clarity. And so it is as we travel inwards beyond Earth and the physical, material Universe of matter. The further from the physical Universe and the nearer to Source, the "higher the resolution" is the Experience, and therefore the more vibrant, vivid, "solid" and indeed "real" it seems, albeit far beyond the old paradigm of "form", with an ever increasing range and spectrum of sounds, colours and other experiences.
This is all due to the greater overall potential that increasing Vibration of Energy facilitates - the higher the Frequency, the more can be resolved by the Mind at the same frequency, with the now complete Mind Sphere - Conscious and Subconscious Spheres now functioning as One Consciousness, decoding Energy, Thought Forms directly.
Even in our human form we can bypass the organic senses and brain through an "expansion of consciousness" which may be invoked through a lowering of brainwave frequencies, to both create and decode these Thought Forms directly. Note that lowering brainwave frequencies provides perception and assimilation of higher Vibratory Frequencies of Energy. Brainwave frequencies and Energy Body frequencies are not related and should not be confused with each other.
This is the process that facilitates the experiences generically known as "psychic" experiences, including, but not limited to clairvoyance, remote viewing, meditation related experiences really are.
Dreams also originate within the non-physical sphere of the Mind, never the organic brain. Clairvoyance is actually the "viewing" or more accurately "perceiving" of events - either on Earth or even the Etheric or Astral - but directly through the Mind - bypassing the influence physical senses and organic brain altogether.
I would like to mention in the context of "psychics" that it is absolutely impossible to "tell the future" - absolutely cannot be done.
The "future", to the extent that it exists at all relative to the temporal space-time experience, exists only as "quantum potential" - possibilities that can only become subjective experience through the process of observation in the present and only Moment of Now.
So what people think of as the future, exists only as Energy with Infinite Potential.
"Ideas" do not originate in the organic human brain - in fact they do not even originate within the human sphere of Mind.
Ideas "arrive" directly to Subconscious Mind, which acts as a "receiver" in the same way as a TV for example, from the Mental Causal Plane corresponding with the range of Energy Frequency corresponding with the Collective Human Mind at any level of Evolution, in accordance with the capacity for that idea to be received.
The idea originating within the Mental "plane of ideas" is first transmitted first to the Subconscious Sphere of Mind in accordance with the nature, in other words Vibration of thoughts originating from the Conscious Sphere of Mind activity.
This Conscious Mind activity is transmitted to the Subconscious Mind which in turn creates a Thought Form corresponding to the nature of the thought.
This Thought Form then attract "ideas" of the same unique Vibratory and Energy Form structure from the Human Mental Plane, of ideas, shared by all humans of similar level of Mind evolution.
The Subconscious Mind then as usual applies all the "filters" it has previously received from the Conscious Sphere of Mind as previously discussed, and then on to the Conscious Sphere of Mind itself which accepts the "idea" in accordance with its current mental capacity, biases, beliefs etc to do so.
The idea is then received as a modified Thought Form in the same way as an image originating from the sensory inputs of the physical senses and accepted as "original".
But again, as with all subjective experience, the very nature of the original, pure, undiluted "idea" is filtered, biased and skewed in accordance with the specific beliefs, expectations, "hopes" and so on of the Conscious Mind.
So, for example, a very religious person might think about metaphysical concepts, but will invariably reject them as being "outside their belief system".
Human Beings can and do therefore actually originate "Thought Forms", but cannot originate unique "ideas". Humans can only "receive" ideas from the "Plane of Ideas" which they can "tune in to", in accordance with their Mental capacity to do so.
If the Ego Mind cannot conceive of, or believe in a level or quality of idea, then it will simply reject it as "wrong", "nonsense" even "heresy", instead choosing only to accept whatever it chooses to believe - again in the case of religion for example.
Of course "beliefs" extend to every sphere of experience including for example about "money", relationships, social "status", but these are always learned or programmed.
A baby is a "blank canvas, never arriving in the world with anything painted on his or her new Conscious Sphere of Mind. A baby is a Spiritual marvel of consciousnesses - such a perfect, wonderful Being - with the latent capacity to achieve anything without limitation - a baby inherently knows no limitations, even having the latent capacity to access to all knowledge without ever having to attend the human creation of "school".
Babies, are born with a very high brainwave frequency and accordingly "expanded sphere of consciousness" so they have the potential and capacity to "absorb" and learn a vast amount of information, very rapidly - this is a survival measure, to get the child "up to speed" very quickly.
The "imaginary friends" of the child are very real, but the parents cannot perceive and therefore accept them as real, so the child is told to "quit imagining things".
From the very outset well-meaning and genuinely loving parents present their child with all sorts of fluffy, tactile and sometimes noisy toys, thus reinforcing the concept of material "things almost from birth - often toy versions of "adult" material possessions.
As a child becomes "older", brainwaves slow down, as does natural conscious sphere of perception, and with it capacity and speed of learning and experiencing.
As it is - parents, as soon as their child can understand, commence the indoctrination of the child in to the "ways of the world", imprinting the child with their own religion, prejudices and of course "station in life", and by the age of 7- 10 at the most, the child has thus been heavily programmed, true Spiritual connections buried under many layers of material beliefs, and, unless, like Neo in the Matrix the child can break that programming using their own Mind Power, will and Spiritual connections, the child will be running on that childhood program as a basis for the remainder of their physical experience, thereby constantly creating their own life experience around that model which is accepted as an adequate representation of "reality", whether the experience happens to be "pleasant" or unpleasant.
The overwhelming number of children therefore experience the current "model" of life which may be summarised as - birth, nursery, kindergarten, school, university, work, money, a few days "off" each year for weekends and holidays, vacations, retire after 50 or 60 years of labour,, endeavour to get by on a "pension", lose interest, degenerate and finally "die". This may seem cynical, and of course this is a typical model which may vary in the details, but most people who are honest would have to admit that it is them.
Is this really what the Supreme Intelligence behind All that Is, really intended for humans? Is this even what Higher Self really expected of its representative?
So concluding the subject of ideas - an idea, in and of itself, is always pure, always true and always complete, because the sphere in which it originated is in and of itself pure, perfect and uncorrupted.
Only the Conscious, Ego Mind can and invariably does corrupt a pure idea based upon the ongoing biases, impressions and beliefs it impresses on to the sphere of the Subconscious Mind in accordance with how it perceives its own experience.
This is why humans have such a propensity to "reject" the ideas of others.
Getting back to the physical existence, which, after all you will be mostly interested as a physically focused human being, it is clear then that there are three fundamental factors that can and should consider in the context of your "experience" or concept of "reality".
1. The limitations of the organic human body, including sense organs - sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch - and the organic brain, which has no inherent "intelligence", consciousness or capacity to either originate or receive thought.
2. The Personal Conscious Mind - the Ego - continually impresses the immutable and immensely, indeed infinitely powerful Subconscious Mind with deeply rooted and learned beliefs, expectations, biases, prejudices and so on, arising from programming of parents, society, and later greatest influence of all - the popular media, including, but not limited to news papers, TV, films/movies, and their corresponding websites. The Subconscious Mind then applies those "experience filters" to the composite image received from the organic brain, and then presents the Conscious Mind with a corresponding experience that it can accept as "real", being consistent with its sphere of expectations and current experience.
The frequent human propensity of rejecting potentially positive experiences as being "too good to be true" epitomises self imposed restrictions all too well.
3. The very nature of "matter" itself from which the brain, through the five sensory organs, compiles its initial "best guess" composite image, is, in reality totally transient in nature, only having any form of perceived but not "real" existence at the moment at which it is observed or an attempt is made to quantify it.
The real paradox here then is that it is the Subconscious Mind that actually makes an observation under the instructions of the Conscious Mind. So when you "look" at something, the Conscious Mind is simply telling the Subconscious Mind to "observe" it.
However, it is only when the Subconscious Mind actually does this that the "object" actually becomes observable, thus originating the whole process of sensory observation, interpretation, filtration and presentation in the first place.
So it is the Subconscious Mind that "creates" the object, processes the object and presents the object back to the Conscious Mind as "what it expected to see".
This entire process is completely under the control of the Conscious Mind which is therefore perpetually "generating" its own experience, which in fact never really exists except as a perceived experience which the Conscious Mind believes is "real".
So we can now clearly see that these factors together perpetuate an "experience" that is an "illusion loop", the nature of which is determined by Conscious Mind itself.
Now let us look at graphical anecdotal evidence of this.
When the Spanish first approached what is now known as Central America, the natives were looking out over the sea and became very confused when all they could "see" was large "bow waves" as if something was moving through and displacing large volumes of water. This was caused of course by the large Spanish ships.
But the natives could not actually "see" the ships. All they could see was a clear horizon over the water except for these large bow waves without any apparent cause.
Why was this?
Well quite simply because the ships were at that moment outside of the sphere of comprehension, imagination and experience of the natives, simply because they had no point of reference point for what a "ship" could look like either personally or collectively upon the Mental Frequency of Human Mind that they shared.
The sensory inputs were still arriving at the brain of the natives, which duly forwarded the composite image to the Subconscious Mind, but the Subconscious Mind had no available "filters" to apply, reference points or images from its available personal and collective "library" of data, so there was nothing to forward to the Conscious Mind of the natives.
Actually the Subconscious Mind never makes decisions, so it forwarded the best "picture" it could to the Conscious Mind of the natives, but it was of course blank.
So were the Spanish ships "real" or not?
Well the short answer is the ships were very "real" to the Spanish sailors travelling on board them, but totally unreal to the natives.
Who was correct then - the Spanish or the Natives?
They both were.
Any "thing" is only "real" at the moment it is observed, but even then only to the extent that the observer or collective observers encompassed the object within the sphere of experience at both personal and collective Mind.
The Subconscious Mind had nothing to observe, the organic brain "saw" nothing to observe, sent nothing to observe back to the Subconscious Mind which finally sent the "nothing to observe" to the Conscious Mind of the natives who accordingly "saw nothing".
What this anecdote does demonstrate therefore is that "matter" is entirely subjective in nature, never objective, has no fundamental basis whatsoever in "reality", appearing only according to the ability of the Conscious Mind to comprehend it and Subconscious Mind to process it.
This is also why humans fail to "see" the vast majority of "UFO's", even though they are "out there" in the skies very often. Most people who do "see" UFO's do so from a very relaxed, trance-like state, where normal perception is bypassing the usual narrow focus of the Conscious Mind, the perception of the UFO directly reaching the Subconscious Mind which direct access perception during states of consciousness expanded beyond the normal Conscious sphere of activity.
This is also the basis of many Metaphysical abilities such as for example Telekinesis, i.e. "moving objects" using the power of the Mind alone. In reality there is no "object" - we know that from our previous discussion - so "success" in "moving an objects" is determined by the extent to which the practitioner can overcome his or her own programming as to the nature of "objects" they wish to "move".
You can only move "objects" if you believe you can move them as opposed to being influenced by what you have previously been taught or programmed to believe, and experienced from the moment of birth.
Again though - if you succeeded, you have not actually "moved" a physical object, what you have succeeded in doing is moving your own perception and perspective of the "object", in other words you have convinced your Subconscious Mind of an alternative possibility, which it then brings to your Conscious awareness.
When you have "onlookers" to your Telekinesis, you not only need to overcome the "fear of failure" and looking "foolish" in front of friends and relatives, but also your Mind Power needs to be such as to enable the Subconscious Minds of your audience - which is focused in the same sphere of your own Subconscious Mind - All being One and connected, to "participate" in the experience.
Spoon bending is another excellent example of this.
Those of you who have seen the first Matrix movie will have probably watched as Neo visiting the "Oracle" for the first time, where upon entering the home he saw children practicing levitating toy bricks. He also saw a young boy who was apparently "bending a spoon" with his Mind and "causing" it to generally move around as if very soft.
When Neo asked the boy how he bends the spoon, the boy replied "there is no spoon".
He then went on to add, after seeing Neo's confusion:
"The spoon does not bends, it is you that bends". Or words to that effect.
And this is absolutely true. If you wish to bend that Thought Form that your Conscious Mind believes to be a "spoon"- then you must know, beyond any doubt, that there is no "spoon", and that you are really "bending" Energy as a Thought Form presenting itself as a spoon, which in turn is an aspect and extension of your own sphere of Consciousness.
Neo, once seeing this for himself, proceeded to "bend the spoon" as the boy did.
Now I am hoping that the irony of this paradox is apparent to you by this stage in this discussion.
Plain and simple - what humans regard as "experience" and "real" is in effect illusion upon illusion, upon illusion, each believing the other to be "real", thereby continually reinforcing and perpetuating what I refer to as "illusion loop", ultimately giving rise to the "Matrix-like" environment that most humans regard as "real" or as "life" in this world, just as the residents of the Matrix did in the movie. There is no real difference which is one reason the Matrix is such an excellent metaphor.
It is no "coincidence" that the most popular three series of movies of all time, are also the three that contain the most lessons, only apparent to those who perceive them. Children are highly perceptive, even when they get older, and very often understand these lessons when their parents saw only an entertaining story line. Profound teachings and revelations are entering the sphere of human consciousness from many different sources in recent years, in preparation of the coming transition.
In order to become Empowered and potentially Enlightened, every aspirant must use the power of the Mind, backed by knowledge and truth, to break the loop, empty the Subconscious Mind of all learned barriers, and to Consciously apply the full power of the Mind through Universal Mind, and as Source Mind - Whose Infinite Power flows through each of us to the extent we facilitate it, towards any desired objective, even while focused in the material world, and even while knowing that the material is still not "real" in absolute terms.
We control our experience through the Mind.
Today, in most people, the Mind is controlled through the Experience.
In practice, some people may find that it is easier to remove these illusions layer by layer until the experience is as "pure" as it can be in this environment. Others may choose to totally remove all false programming, and open up their Mind to their own true, infinite, unlimited, unrestricted Spiritual nature as an Expression of the Supreme Source Mind. This is also attainable by many people.
So to summarise this aspect of "life experience - that which humans regard as their "life", "experience", "situation", or other description, is really infinitely dynamic and fluid, constantly being shaped by Mind, Consciousness, Ego - based upon the inclusive nature of thoughts, feelings, emotions, learned and programmed beliefs, expectations and so on, together generating your present "experience" within the only Present Moment of Now.
Now this can be perceived as "positive" or "negative" depending upon your own perspective.
The positive is that with this knowledge comes the power to Consciously determine your own Experience.
An aspect of the Enlightenment that every humans strive for and are here to achieve, is to fully consciously Evolve beyond the sphere of influence of Conscious Mind, to access Subconscious Mind and our true Divine Nature directly, and to assimilate an infinitely greater aspect of Universal Mind and Source Mind in your experience.
An Enlightened person is fully Self and Universal Source Mind realised, knowing and Experiencing Life in its true nature, no longer at the mercy of the feeble Conscious Mind sensory illusions and organic brain that were so an integral an necessary to your path towards Enlightenment. Without consciously prevailing over your circumstances through the Universal Power of Mind, you would have no reference point for Empowerment, Freedom and Enlightenment.
Once a human achieves and maintains this level of Enlightenment within the context of a physical body, all of the trappings and dramas of the illusion loop of the material Universe become utterly meaningless, as does the Astral environment for fundamentally the same reasons.
An Enlightened person only wishes to Experience their True Infinite, Unlimited, Unrestricted, Divine Nature and Potential, the physical world no longer serving any useful purpose, except as through which to provide Service in showing others the way to Self-Empowerment, Freedom and Enlightenment.
Service is a fundamental within all spheres of the Universe, the higher/inner always being a guiding Light to the lower/outer on the great Divine path which, everyone, without exception treads.
Selfishness in all its forms is a uniquely physical human trait of the material world which promotes an "very an for himself" attitude instead of Service to others first.
Now let us take a very brief look not at "things" or "objects" but of the collective experiences that humans call "events".
"Events" can be personal in nature of course, but are more often shared by a number of people, and often considered to be "unexpected".
Humans have a profound tendency to label events - indeed experiences generally - as, for example, "good" or "bad".
Let me first say therefore that "events" are neither "good" or "bad" - they simply "Are" -to the extent that they even exist at all. Events are consciously shared experiences.
In fact there is no "good" or "bad" - these are quite simply examples of duality based concepts.
There is ultimately only Experience itself which is neither "good" or "bad", but simply "Is".
An "event" is Temporal in nature, that is to say experienced only during the moment at which the circumstances of the event are observed by all the participants.
Of course "events" can span "years" of Earth "time" relative to what is known as "history", and throughout Earth history there are examples of this.
But the important point to keep in Mind is that no such Temporal Event can ever "manifest" in isolation.
In accordance with the Universal Principle of Cause and Effect, every "event" is ultimately associated with an infinite and "unbroken" series, or "chain" of related events - Causes and Effects - a Temporal Moment of which is Observed within the personal Sphere of Consciousness of a person or people, before continuing on beyond the temporal event horizon of those "observers" and on in to the temporal sphere of perception of other people or Beings - on Earth or other planet, always independent of "time" or "space" where it is experienced in a temporal "zone", eventually continuing on to Infinity.
This "progression of events" may "travel" through the Spheres of Consciousness of countless Beings existing on the same or different levels of Energy, Vibration, and/or temporal "time-lines" relative to Earth or other planets or environments, each "moment" or "instance" of which may be observed in isolation as a localised temporal "event", without any knowledge whatsoever of the associated and continuous, infinite chain of related events - Causes and Effects - of which it is a part.
Even then this "chain of events" is not "real", or "material", in accordance with the Principles we have already discussed. It is rather an infinite chain of related Thought Forms, each of which has infinite potential to manifest in its own temporal sphere of observation, in accordance with the Subconscious filters of the observers.
So even each distinct temporal event may be deemed "good" or "bad" depending on the Subconscious Mind or Mind and associated filters of the participants.
But again, this "event" may only be observed only within the temporal event horizon of the observers, before continuing on beyond the temporal event horizon of the observers, and therefore beyond the perception and experience of the observers.
There is nothing "random" about these events, and they never "happen" in isolation for "no apparent reason" for the reasons previously discussed, and certainly never by "chance", "luck", "fortune" or any other such superstitious notion.
So how may we summarise the question of "reality" as it relates to human experience?
Well to start with we must understand the fact that the entire nature of the "Universe" in all spheres of Vibration, exists only as an Infinite expanse of Energy encompassing infinite potential, is infinitely fluid, and responds only to Mind Principle at all levels.
Mind may be considered, at a human level, to encompass two fundamental spheres of existence - Personal - which encompasses the Conscious and Subconscious components - and the Collective or Shared. This is still an over-simplification, but will suffice for the purposes of this discussion.
There is also the Superconscious Mind, or "Superconsciousness" - a much "higher" and all encompassing "level" of Mind in the context of Universal Mind.
Nothing in the Universe is ever "fixed" and therefore nothing in the Universe is ever "real" in accordance with the human concept of "real" - nothing ever has "substance" - at least not in any more than in a transient sense.
Source Mind, First Cause is the Only "Objective Reality", because only Source encompasses the All, knows the All and "sees" The All from a complete perspective.
No aspect of Source can be inherently "unreal" or "imperfect" - it simply Is.
All other aspects of "reality" are, by very nature, Subjective Reality.
All that Is exists then ultimately may be conceptualised as an Infinite "ocean" of Vibrant Energy with Infinite Potential, Perpetually Subjectively Experiencing itself through "Individuations" - "fragments" - of Its Self, but which "fragments" are also concurrently Integral Aspects of Its Self.
There is no separation in any Reality except that which is perceived which is never real except to the extent it seems real to the observer.
As an "individuated" Energy Field - Conscious and Subconscious Mind, Spirit, within the Great Energy Field - Universal Mind - we exist "everywhere" within Universal Mind, with the same Infinite Potential, concurrently, encompassing the Whole.
"Movement" is therefore an illusion - all "projection" is a projection of Conscious Awareness, of the Mind only - a focusing to a the point in the Universal Energy Field that is desired to be experienced, and which can be imagined and comprehended.
"Movement" and therefore "motion" must be an illusion, because there is no duality, no "here" or "there" to "move" between.
No Being can experience anything outside the current sphere of imagination and comprehension, both of which expand during the process of experience and Evolution.
A "possibility" only becomes experiential as a Thought Form in the precise moment it is observed, and "after" which returns to transient Native Universal Energy with Infinite Potential. Never at any time was the Thought Form "real" in the absolute sense.
What each human currently considers as their current "reality" simply represents a infinitesimally tiny subset of the Whole Universe of possibilities that have been subscribed to and observed out of freewill. In the physical state this process is comprised of a composite of the sensory inputs fed to the organic brain, interpreted by the Subconscious Mind which applies filters based upon the "lifetime" of learned and programmed thoughts, feelings, emotions, beliefs, expectations and capacity to comprehend, imagine and experience, and then on to the Conscious Mind to be perceived as subjective, but never objective experience, never "real" in absolute terms.
What people perceive as solid "matter" in isolation, is simply a Transient Thought Form of an infinitely fluid "quantum soup" in which every component is intimately related by the same infinite quantum potential, and encompasses "Everywhere within the All" concurrently. "Matter" is therefore never "real" - it is always a transient composite illusion regardless of how it the Conscious Mind chooses to perceive it.
What people perceive as an "object" is actually just a very tiny fragment of Energy as a Transient Thought Form that only exists as such to the extent and moment in which it is observed, while also existing as integral aspect of Infinite, interconnected Wholeness.
This leads to the only possible conclusion that what humans call "matter" does not exist.
"Locality" does not exist.
Space does not exist.
Time does not exist.
What metaphysics or mystics erroneously refer to as "projection" is actually a shift in the point of Conscious Awareness in the context of The All, to a point within Infinity to the extent that the desired point can be comprehended, conceptualised and imagined.
We all, even in a physical body, exist Everywhere concurrently. here can be no duality implied "movement between two points", only a movement of conscious awareness in the context of Infinity.
A sense of Being "somewhere" only differs in accordance with the point within the infinity of Universal Mind that Conscious Awareness is focused in the Present Moment of Now, in accordance with the "belief" filters applied by the Subconscious Mind.
In terms of physical experience, each person as an Individual Point of Conscious within Universal Mind may choose to place a different interpretation upon the same subjective sensory inputs from their own perspective. So when one person describes a "car", another may be perceiving something completely different although both may agree, at a physical, temporal level of observation, and in accordance with their respective Subconscious filters, that it is still a "car".
The same applies to colours. If you show someone a "blue" object they may recognise it as what you may refer to as "yellow", but because both observers consistently recognise the Energy being observed by their respective colours, it is always a constant. Both observers are always correct.
So again, when you ask someone to "look" at something, although they will "see something", there is no way of knowing whether what they "see" is actually the same as what you "see" because there is no "real" point of reference. Instead you simply accept what you see as fact and agree that, regardless of how you choose to "see" that object after it has been processed through layers of Subconscious filters, it nevertheless represents the same "thing" which you can "both" agree on - actually you are One Mind at a deeper level anyway. Conscious Spheres of Mind Principle can relate to and understand in accordance with individual and shared perceptions, conscious beliefs and biases.
Again, as everything is subjective, nothing is real" all observers are correct.
"All that Is", Universal Mind Principle, comprises an Infinite Field of Consciousness, Vibrating Energy with Limitless Potential, perpetually Subjectively Experiencing Itself through Infinite "fragments" or integral aspects of Its Self.
Humans - indeed all Life - which means "All that Is" are simply Unique Configurations of Energy - Energy Fields - within the context of the Greater Energy Field - Universal Mind - each Energy Field identified by a unique but constantly changing Vibration, the rate or frequency of which is entirely dependent upon state of Evolution and Perfection relative to the only true Reference - Source, First Cause - while still intimately and seamlessly connected to the Whole Energy Field as One complete Experience with Infinite Experiential Potential.
This is why "life" as humans know it in the physical Universe - Earth in this case - is an illusion - a Dream. But a Dream that anyone can Consciously change if they choose to, and have sufficient Mind Power and control to do so.
If "life" is an illusion what then does that make "death"?
"Death" is an illusion.
Mind, Ego, Consciousness, Soul, Spirit are All Configurations of Energy - existing Only as unique Energy Fields identifying who we Are - the Spiritual "I".
Humans are therefore indestructible in absolute terms, even if the organic body is transient in nature.
During the change known as "death", the Soul and Spirit - unique Energy Field - leaves the organic material shell, to Now experience itself as pure Energy without the encumbrance of the physical shell, physical senses and organic brain, which, after Life Principle has departed, is free to "decompose" to the extent it may be observed to do so.
Experience after "death" seems considerably more "real" than before, because whereas before "death" experience relied on the sensory inputs of the five physical senses and the limitations of an organic brain, the "body of Energy" now experiences directly.
Taking the sense organs and organic brain out of the "picture" immediately removes a whole layer of potential error.
The influence of the sense of "time" is also removed, and along with it the illusion of "waiting" for something to "materialise". All Thoughts "manifest" instantly as Forms - Thought Forms - Energy Forms - inherently transient in nature.
The Subconscious Sphere of activity of the Mind now decodes Energy, Thought Forms, directly. In this more powerful state, in the absence of space or time, Mind not only decodes Thought Forms directly, it also influences Energy to bring about Thought Forms which are observed instantly.
This is still an entirely subjective experience however because the Experiences as Thought Forms are still in observed in accordance with the nature of the Thought that gave rise to them.
So after "passing," humans must very quickly learn to control the nature of their Thoughts - to control their Mind - a lesson best learned before passing where the challenges are greater, and materialise much slower, so the experience is much more forgiving - which after all is he whole basis of the physical Universe and material existence. A kindergarten child needs to be introduced to their full potential gradually so they can grasp it, and less likely to make mistakes.
In the Astral worlds, the Afterlife, the "life after death", humans are still living the illusion of material form, which, at that stage of their evolution is still required - it must be otherwise they would not be there at all.
Astral residents are either not being able to comprehend or willing to contemplate a massively more powerful, formless, bodiless, experience as a Self-Aware, Self-Conscious "Point" of Energy. These are spheres of true glory, where form is regarded as a necessary first step on the path to much greater and more responsible roles, responsibilities and adventures.
The physical world to "ascended" humans is perceived as but nothing more than a hazy, crudely defined, but interesting, necessary dream.
Yes physical life is a dream, but a necessary learning experience in which every human has chosen to participate at the start of the glorious journey along the Eternal Path of Experience and Perfection, with the potential to achieve the ultimate conclusion of reuniting with Source, while, on the journey, accepting far greater, more responsible and glorious roles Within the All, as a hugely powerful designers and "creators" of environments and games, designed to facilitate ever further Evolution and Perfection, while "joining" with "groups" of Spirits to be of Service out of Unconditional Love to those further out on the path - the Inner always helping the Outer in Love and Service.
The entire Universe - in All Spheres - is characterised by Cycles of Energy - some extremely "short" , other extremely "long", but all have the potential to influence us in some way.
Humanity is currently experiencing the "end" of one such great cycle of 25,765 years or so, and the transition to the next. These events have the potential to be completely transformational for those prepared. The Higher Self of those not yet ready will continue their own cycle of incarnations on Earth if possible, other planets if not.
These events potential to be both transformational, and, from a physical human perspective, destructive. But this is simply an aspect of the perfection of Universal Mind, old paradigms needing to be swept aside to facilitate the new.
Your own time to Awaken is Now, as humanity, Earth and all Life on Earth on Earth approaches a this truly great Transformational and Transitional Event - an opportunity to experience a great leap in your own personal Evolution, should you choose, and will prepare yourself accordingly, an opportunity to experience the potential to remove many physical world obstacles, thus presenting a golden opportunity for all those who have made it possible for themselves to participate in this great Evolutionary opportunity.
Evolution is not fixed to any "point" within the human experience - it is ongoing. Any human can achieve the evolutional potential at ay "time" and proceed to the next "level". But the opportunity such as that being presented Now, and which will accelerate exponentially towards the pivotal moment, may be considered to be a 25,765 year "window of opportunity" with the potential to achieve a "quantum leap" in personal evolution should you be prepared for this Divine opportunity and choose to accept it.
This is just one reason I was inspired to write my book, Our Ultimate Reality, my website of the same name, why I commit my Sunday mornings to sending you a
There has never, at least in the last 25,765 years or so, been a "better" "time" to experience being a Human on Earth.
Yet you must still make the decision and take the actions to embrace this opportunity and "go with the flow". There is no "sitting back and waiting for it to happen" - it will not. If you do you will "miss" the proverbial "boat", and another one of this size does not depart for another 25,765 years or so. Complacency never brings Evolution. All humans are here to Evolve, but Evolution will not take place without effort, commitment, understanding, knowledge and application. Transient Experience does not equate to Evolution, although nothing is ever "wasted" within the Perfection of The All.
Finally what then can we say about the nature of "reality"?
We can never know the absolute nature of "Reality" as Source Mind, the Supreme Intelligence, until finally, through the process of Evolution, the potential is reached and the decision is made to reunite, to "merge", at which point all will become known.
We can however say this about the All Encompassing Nature of the Subjective Reality within the context of Universal Mind in Which we Experience, Evolve, Love and have our Being.
This Subjective aspect of Universal Reality may be defined as:
A Boundless Expanse of Eternal, Intelligent, Conscious, Vibrant Energy, Subjectively Experiencing Itself as Itself.
So what then are the three Fundamental Qualities of this Greater Reality?
Love - Mind - Consciousness
There is nothing else.
What may we say about the nature of the Personal "reality" of humans on Earth.
Personal Reality is simply your Subjective Experience in any Moment of Now within the overall context of the greater Reality.
The Moment of Now is Eternal, Encompassing Infinite Potential, any aspect of which any human has the Potential to Experience through Mind Principle in the process of Personal Evolution - also an aspect of Collective Evolution - although there is ultimately but One of Which we are All Eternal Aspects within the Universal Mind.
Subjective Experience, the reason or "meaning" of physical "life", provides a limitless, self-regulating environment through which Personal Evolution can progress through the Divine Freewill we are All Blessed with, and the Infinite Power of Mind, within the context of a Universal Mind of Infinite Potential, always regulated through immutable Universal Principles.
The kindergarten environment of the physical, material Universe provides a "sandbox" in which humans can "play" without hurting themselves or disrupting the greater Universal harmony.
Once a human has attained sufficient Experience and Evolution, they are released from the sandbox - the physical Universe - to take their place as a formless Spiritual "I" in the context of the greater Whole, All, of Universal Mind.
The objective and destiny of every Individual Aspect of Mind as the Spiritual "I" is to attain the potential to reunite with Source Mind Energy, Supreme Being and Intelligence, at which moment the absolute "Ultimate Reality" is instantly Realised in that Moment.
Most humans currently experiencing "Earth life" are just setting foot on this Eternal Path, along which Life and Experience becomes increasingly "real" and glorious". There are no human words to even begin to describe these Divine glories - a primary motivation to continue, during which increasingly greater and more responsible Roles are accepted with great Joy, thus facilitating ever greater potential for Experience and Evolution, while contributing to the Evolution and Expansion of the Whole - the All.
So how may we summarise your "physical experience" in the context of Earth?
Your physical "life" is a "sandbox" and you are a Child of the Universe playing within your sandbox. You toys are the Play-Doh which you may mould Indefinitely to any Experience that you can Imagine.
"Life" in the physical world of matter - your current experience - is a but a Dream, a Dream which you and you alone Continually Perpetuate within the context the Collective Dream of humanity.
Your objective on Earth is to Realise both the Personal and Collective Dream for what it Really is, Free yourself from that Dream, and Consciously Realise, and Connect With the Greater Reality Beyond the Dream, and Source of All that Is.
What you have been previously been taught, experienced and as recognised as "Life", is but a Game, a Game in which you have hitherto willingly participated and immersed yourself believing it to represent your life and reality. Your Moment has Now arrived to graduate beyond the nurturing, loving and self experiencing kindergarten realm of games, pretend and make-believe, to graduate to the Glorious Realms of a much Greater Responsibility, Love and Service to All.
Your current experience of "life" is but the space-time bound Matrix, a projected game, an illusion that you have Chosen to Experience. You must Now Awaken to the full nature of this game, before you may liberate your Self from the game.
Your objective is to attain Enlightenment, encompassing the Full Realisation of, and Conscious Oneness and Connection With, Source of All that Is.
Unconditional Love and Service for All Life becomes a Primary Principle.
Physical, material "life" is recognised for the dream that it really is having finally served its purpose which you understand and are grateful for.
The ultimate objective and greatest attainment of all humans therefore, as many have "before" you, is to achieve Enlightenment while still in the context of a physical human experience. This is a primary reason why Higher Self of Humans chooses the extremely challenging route of concurrent physical incarnation - the most effective way of instantly attaining the necessary Experience to facilitate the Graduation of Higher Self - Spiritual "I" - to much greater, glorious and responsible roles in the "Allnesss" of Universal Mind.
