I hope all of you found bliss in the 2012 Winter Soulstice and your transition into The Golden Age was/is going well. I was going to write a blog post similar to this, but a friend, Peter Leonard Light, on Facebook, had written this piece on the Winter Soulstice.
Please read and enjoy! :) Any feedback can be directed to Peter Leonard Light’s Facebook.
If you truly know who you are, then all the problems of the world would be able to be solved. When someone asks you who you are, what do you say?? you may say “I’m Joe or Mary or Steven or Chris”, and they may say “I’m Fred or Peter or Lisa or Suzy”, and both of you may be quite pleased to have met each other, And Then you may say something like “I’m a doctor” and they may say “wow I’m a doctor also”. Now you may believe that you are alike based on the information exchanged (Name-occupation) ( but true likeness goes way deeper,(all will be made clear,continue reading)and you may think you have just made a friend since you have so much in common “both doctors”. Did you make a friend because of soul recognition or was it because of the belief or attachment to the (name/occupation-label)?? Now please let me explain. What is a name or label anyway?? A name or label is an energy classification, that classification can be a confinement(controlling system) or a liberating(freeing system). Since every idea(thought) carries actual weight and measure( magnitude-potential) All idea’s(thoughts) either confine or liberate energies based on their potentials or magnitudes. If one believes they are the label(Fred-Mary-Jane- A doctor-A martial artist-A chef(any example can go here) They are limited by the potential and magnitude of said label. If you think you are Fred then you shall be confined by what you think Fred is. The name or label is meant only as a way of classifying energy,example: there is a chair, there is a table. Labeling was not meant to be used as a confinement of that said energy. example: It’s just a chair, it’s just a table. The table and chair are of course both energy, they just have different appearances and uses based on form(vibration). When I say “beach ball” what do you see?? You may see a rainbow ball around 12-14 inch’s in diameter or a solid color one, a blue or maybe red, there are many many variations, but all in all, you saw a beach ball. The image in this case is not important, whats important is being aware that what you saw was energy as a classification(label) expressing itself as form. There can be many problems with classifying energy as one thing and not as another. The number one problem is the idea of Separation. The idea of separation is the idea of one thing being different than the other. example: The red ball-The blue ball. They are both energy, they are just express(vibrate) differently.Now if one has an attachment to either one more than the other, dualism is created.” How” you may say is dualism created by liking(attaching more thought to one(label) than another?? the answer is simple. This is a universe based on the principle of balance. To lean too far on one side of the teeter tooter causes imbalance and eventual ruin for all energy expressed irrespective of forms expressed. Since there is only one universe, to split(thought/ideas)(creates dualism) and that causes an energy imbalance and miss places energy(potentials) in this universe. That is one of the problems with labeling, if energy is mislabeled, dual thinking is created where by leading too the eventual ruin(deterioration) of all energy systems. If one adopts an idea system that encompasses the whole, all energy is sent out by thought in balanced wave forms and all systems are sustained.In order for that balanced idea system to be expressed all must know truth of their being and be willing to express that truth.WHO ARE WE??? How can we send out balanced though forms?? First lets start by finding common ground to stand from.True awareness of labeling can create common ground. Think about it this way. If you believe or think you are Mary,Joe,Steve or whatever label one chooses to adopt. Then what do you think will happen?? You will move(express vibration) based on what the label/classification wants you to express. Mary does as Mary does. But what if you knew the TRUTH of what Mary,Joe,Fred(label) really is?? What if you realized that in order to be even contemplating Mary.Joe,Fred(label), there must be a you and a Mary,Joe,Fred(label) An observer and an observee. Mary,Joe,Fred may not like you observing them because up until now you may have always thought you were (her/him)(label) But as you observe you will truly realize that she/he is just another label of classified energy. A label of content, of idea’s, opinions, ways of moving, ways of talking, and so forth. Now as you gain insight into your Mary,Joe,Fred(label) you may ask if i’m observing a Mary,Joe,Fred(label) and she is not me since I’m observing her/him, then who the heck am I??? This my friends is a beautiful turning point, this is the point leading to true freedom. This is the moment that you adopt a new perspective of your existence. Now since you may have asked “Who am I”??? I could just tell you, but then you may go “how the heck do you know” and it may start an argument and that will help none of us, so rather than tell you I’m going to show you how you can know who you are without me telling you. For a moment observe your Mary,Joe,Fred(label) ask her/him something like, “do you like the weather”??, now she/he may like or dislike the weather based on their individual opinion,the response is not important to that question. Now ask her/him this. If I’m talking to you and you are answering me, could I be you?? based on her/his amount of content that she/he has to associate with, she/he could say a whole bunch of stuff but ask again. “If I’m me am I you”(of course she is a part of you, i’m not saying she/he is separate in anyway, all that we are trying to figure out is if she/he is in our mind(created)by us or is us).The label will say NO, the reason why she/he will say NO, is because to Mary,Joe,Fred(label) she/he is the label and only the label and you can’t be the(label) because Mary,Joe,Fred is the label. Mary,Joe,Fred(label) is energy expressing as the classification of Mary,Joe,Fred(label). So what have we discovered so far?? we have seen that our idea system of who we think we are has a certain energy pattern and that pattern is expressed as the label(ego), and since you are clearly not the label(ego,false self) since the label can only be the label. You may be wondering why that matters, because it is impossible to honor yourself if you think yourself is something other than yourself. So Who are we?? Since the only thing that has been proven is that you are not your Mary,Joe,Fred(label-ego). Well it can be observed clearly that you are observing Mary,Joe,Fred( label)(ego) so at the very least that makes you an observer and that is very freeing to know that you are an observer rather than energy confined as a label. So at least now you know you are an observer since you are doing exactly that, observing. So what is it that we observe?? Well energy of course, because the whole universe is made of energy. So you are an observer of energy, observing energy. How do you observe, eyes,nose,ears all of your sense perceptions observe. For a moment observe your breathe,(nostril breathing) IN_OUT_IN_OUT Can you feel the cooling of your nostrils as you intake and the warming as you outtake?? That is you being more your authentic self than your label(ego) ever was, remember the label can only be the label it cannot be you. So you may still wonder what and who you are since all that has been proven so far is that you are an observer of energy that uses the senses to sense. So you observe and sense HMMM, Now you may ask why do I observe and sense??? Now we are really getting somewhere. Take your right hand and gently tickle the palm of your left hand and then take your left hand and gently tickle the palm of your right hand. Do you still need an answer as to why we observe and sense?? or was the feeling answer enough for you?? its very simple we have senses and are able to observe because we get to observe the sensations of this present moment, it is all about feeling and observing the feeling while it happens. You may say “wow,really”or “duh, knew that” but either way life is about being present for the sensing of life. You may again ask who you are?? Since all that has been proven is that you are an observer of the sensing in the present. You may hear”that’s it” in your mind, but that wasn’t you that said that, that was your Mary,Joe,Fred(label-ego) that said that, currently she/he is trying very hard to figure out exactly where she/he fits into all all of this, that is great because that is exactly what the ego is for. To make sure that you are in an aware and clear enough state to sense the present as it happens and to keep you from being in situations that are painful rather than pleasurable. Your ego(Mary,Fred,Joe) is meant to be the logical being that moves the sensing body into the situations that are more pleasurable than painful, it was never meant to be a confining idea system that moves one away from pleasure(there are many many examples, way too many to list of how the label(ego) has placed us into hurtful situations, the more patterns of this that we see the less we will move in them in the future. Seeing patterns is the key to limiting pain in the future) So now you know that you are an observer that has an idea system called(label) and it does what it wants when it is suppose to do what you want, and that is to put the body system in the most pleasurable situations with no harmful reproductions. Remember that everything is energy and all we can do is move, observe and sense energy. Our ego is the mover of our body system and is meant to put us into a place in space to maximize our sense perceptions. Since observing, sensing and moving energy is all we can do in this whole universe, does it make sense to make sure that it is pleasurable rather than painful??? So as you observe what do you choose?? Pleasure or Pain?? I guess i’ll just gently tickle my palm again for the answer :) You may be still wondering who you are but at least you know why you are here and what the ego(mover) is for. Can you answer me this?? Are you made up of energy?? YES. So clearly you are energy sensing and observing energy, and what is the universe made out of?? Energy. Are you getting what I’m saying???So since you an observer and you are sensing energy and you are made up of energy and the universe is made up of energy, is it safe to say that you and I are energy sensing itself, well if the universe is the energy we are sensing, who would that make us??? OBVIOUSLY WE ARE THE UNIVERSE. Since you are now aware of your true self(the universe) is it safe to say that sending energy to any one part more than another(dualism) causes an imbalance in yourself and will lead to eventual ruin?? that is why LOVE is universal, it is all inclusive, none are left out. The long time sun shines upon everyone.This is not to be confused with pain and pleasure. Pain and pleasure are merely scales of universal sense, like hot and cold are. We sense them we don’t send energy to them. They are there waiting for us to receive them, it is true that our movement patterns can put us in a place of pleasure and pain, but by choosing to sense a certain part of the scale and not another does not leading into dualism,its leads us into joy and bliss. If we are aware that all is the universe and that it has a scale of music that holds the whole together and a scale that tears everything apart. By being conscious of our thinking we can choose to no longer be destroyers of our self(universe) and finally and gloriously co-create with our self(universe). Send love and good feelings to your self, see through the ideas of separation, as we are one universe. Of course there are many many different parts, clearly we are all individual expressions of the whole, we just need to be aware of that to again co-create a shining masterpiece (a space of love that will last forever). I love you self :) Thank you for hearing and seeing.
