It’s human nature to become attached to the things around us
that serve us well or we become emotionally loving too, there is nothing wrong
or even right with this, it’s just a natural interaction we are able and wanting
to express or not express. Do all
attachments interfere with our connectedness to God’s consciousness or the
inner self? Actually quite often they can assist with this connectedness and at
other times interfere with this connectedness however, where our attachments
interfere with this connectedness can be quite tricky to acknowledge mainly due
to the type and strength of such attachments.
Dream: I had a
dream last night of being utterly frustrated. I was going somewhere with my
wife and we parked the car up a back side street. When we returned, the car
wasn’t where we thought we parked it, it wasn’t stolen, we just couldn’t remember
what side street we parked the car in as there were many side streets, the more
I searched for our car the more side streets appeared.
Where we were visiting and where we parked the car was in an
old area of the town, night was also befalling. The further I looked the newer
the town looked and the brighter the day became. I was totally lost in an area
of the town I was not familiar with, every time I tried to return back to my wife,
to the old side of town, the less I was able too. Every turn I took, took me
away from the old side of town, this was very frustrating to me.
This newer part of town was in bright daylight but I still
wanted to be back from where my wife and our car was parked, my attachments to
the old were stopping me from becoming familiar with my new surroundings which were
noticeably cleaner, newer and brighter.
Dimensions: The
thing with me is I accept this reality, this dimension for what it is, a 3rd
dimensional reality that influences our mentally to react in a certain way, in
this case destructively. This destruction is caused through ignorance for only through
ignorance are we able to destroy. There
are reasons why I have attachments to this reality which I won’t go into;
actually a lot of us have attachments to this reality in one sense or another.
Going by the dream, it’s this 3rd dimensional mentality
that is of the old side of town and is what I have obviously got to let go of
as a lot of us do I could imagine. How could people like me be so attached to such
a destructive reality? If I was destructive
within my own mentality all I would see of this reality is destructiveness but
that is not all I see for various reasons. The destructiveness of others can
also bring out the best in others and it most often does. A destructive reality also allows one to
appreciate the smaller things in life if we are aware enough to do so. It is
not easy being aware in such a destructive reality, this kind of destructive mentality
that this reality/dimension produces is meant to obstruct our awareness from
seeing any more than destructiveness. This
I feel allows our soul to become more aware.
You could say when being in a timeless state of consciousness we become awareness
itself, does this not instantaneously teach the soul awareness without going
through such trauma, such dimensions and realities?
Why have a soul, what is then the purpose of a soul if this
is the case, we can all just go into a consciousness of timelessness and become
awareness itself? How many people become
of this awareness itself and are still existing in this dimension? No one, because once you truly become
awareness itself you would just disappear from dimensions like this one.
Timelessness: Let’s
look at this timeless conscious state that allows us to feel that we become
awareness itself. It is certainly something
new to our usual state of awareness otherwise we wouldn’t acknowledge it as
much as we do and speak about it as much as we do. The point is it’s new to us,
it’s not of our usual awareness state which is influenced by time and this is
the point. Because our usual state of consciousness
is of time, when we go into a newer state of consciousness it’s going to feel
quite awesome and rather spectacularly huge especially in relation to our usual
awareness state. I have made the same mistake for some time now, I thought this
was it, the be and end all, the sources (God’s) consciousness because it was so
powerfully different to our ignorant state of consciousness in time. Most of us
are only aware of a destructive dimension; anything slightly constructive to
this is going to feel quite awesome. This is exactly like calling a much aware and
wiser being a God which we have done in the past.
When we are fleetingly in and out of this timeless consciousness,
we can feel it’s the be and end all, we feel we become awareness itself mainly
because this awareness we feel is much more aware than our usual state of awareness
in time. The sources (God’s) consciousness is of all consciousness not just of
this timeless or even of the consciousness of time but all of what consciousness
is as a whole.
I was duped into thinking this timeless consciousness was
all about awareness itself as well until I became aware of time while in a
timeless state of consciousness. I then realised this timeless state of consciousness
was unaware of time, it isn’t as aware as I thought. This dimension of time tricks
us to believe things that aren’t true because it’s so ignorant and destructive,
anything more constructive and aware is going to feel quite awesome and quite
understandably.
Mentality: We can’t
change this dimension, all dimensions are of a particular consciousness which
produce a particular mentality but you can however change this mentality. When we change this mentality, what we are
doing is changing what dimension we are in; we are not actually changing the dimension
even though this is going to feel that is what we are doing. Everything will seem the same to our five senses
but we will feel different, eventually our five senses will become in tune with
this new dimension giving our senses a different perspective. We will see
things differently and smell things differently and so forth, we will in turn
act quite differently.
What has time and timelessness got to do with my dream and
letting go of the old? Everything, because I have been writing about time and timelessness
more and more recently, this is the new part of town where the old part of town
is believing this timelessness is the be and end all no matter what. To me this is like thinking a more aware being
than I is a God no matter what. The frustration is, once you become aware there
is no going back even if you want too.
Aren’t such attachments to a dimension or anything else of
the ego, destructive and not of the inner self? A true spiritual person will be accepting of whatever
situation they find themselves in, this includes being expressive of the ego
and even destructive. I should point
out, just because one is expressive of the ego doesn’t make them automatically destructive,
the ego only becomes destructive when it
take control and the more control it has the more destructive it becomes. The
reason a controlling ego can be destructive is it’s living in ignorance; it’s ignorant
to everything not of the ego. This is
true because only through ignorance can we destroy. It is however quite impossible
for a true spiritual aware person to be destructive, they are usually too aware
however an aware soul can choose a life of destruction. This usually happens
when the soul needs to become aware of such mentalities through actual experiences,
not one of us in this dimension hasn’t chosen, at the soul level, to do just this,
we wouldn’t be here otherwise!!
In all you cannot become aware or experience anything unless
it’s of consciousness either it be of time or timelessness, this doesn’t make it
real as such but it doesn’t make it unreal either, it’s really a balance between
the two. Why does anything have to be truly of one or
the other? The answer of course is it doesn’t!!
So in all, my dream is telling me this is where I am supposed
to go but it’s not saying that is where everybody else is supposed to go, just
go with what you feel comfortable with, if you are comfortable with thinking time
is an illusion or the ego is bad period, just go with that because that is what
you are supposed to do as I’m supposed to do what I am doing.
