We will certainly find ourselves in a
different reality than what we are presently experiencing collectedly at times,
this shows in the different ways we respond to various situation in our lives. We
tend to behave differently at times to
situations that others around us also experience, this can feel isolating and
alienating. Our response can also be misinterpreted by other people around us,
most often in relation to their own responses, their perceptions have to be
also of ours!!
We also need to be aware that other
people's perceptions are not going to be ours either. It's obvious that we can
exist in a different reality while experiencing the same collective reality,
this is likened to that we have our own personal path to follow while
experiencing the same collective human journey.
It's quite understandable that life, while
experiencing quite a different path to the human journey, will become daunting
to us at times. We will at times be subject to unjust ridicule and abuse, this
is inevitable. It's like living as a Christian in an extremist Islamic region
of the world, and yes, it can be this daunting at times, actually, for some
people it can indeed be this frightening and isolating/alienating.
We can ourselves also become extreme within
our judgment of other people following the human journey itself, just because
our path might not be of the human journey, doesn't mean the human journey
being followed by the mass is wrong or incorrect. We must remember, we are the
one's deviating from the collective human journey, within this action, we
should expect to be abused and ridiculed. However, the collective human journey
is not fixated to a certain journey and yes,
everyone has a right to influence what path this collective human
journey takes.
Individually, I've been abused and
ridiculed, at times to the extreme, not just by strangers or friends,
colleagues and acquaintances, but by family in particular only because I have
chosen to follow a different path on my journey. Because I can instantly
separate myself from other people's path's, including family members paths, I'm
often labelled hateful and spiteful only because I no longer feel at home
intermingled within their paths. My whole journey became a completely different
path to theirs. You can actually liken this to a spiritualist who goes out to
find their inner truer self, they most often separate themselves from friends
and family. Within certain cultures in the world, this is accepted, in other
cultures it's not.
I can be very close to people and instantly
severe this closeness when my own path beckons me to. Yes, I have emotionally
hurt certain people by being able to instantly separate myself from their
present path, this is by no way intentional. I must, as we all should, follow
our own path, this at times isn't always accepted by some people around us.
This can't be helped when being true to yourself and following your own path
and not being of someone else's path. My families path in particular became no
longer of my own path, this was evident in the obvious difference between our
paths. The difference between our paths became more and more evident as time
went by, I was no longer comfortable or felt at home within their path for
various reasons.
As they have become hateful or intolerant of
me, I was also supposed to be of them, they perceived that I too was of their
path still so I had to hate them but of course that couldn't be further from
the truth. I simply no longer had no similarity with my families path, we were
obviously going in quite different directions. When I instantly make a decision
to separate myself from a path I no longer associate with, there is no malice
or hate involved, it's a simple decision
to separate myself from a path that no longer belongs as a part of my path. My
journey has become indifferent to the collective human journey, it's this
simple but it is then easy to judge how wrong or negative the human collective
journey is, this of course isn't the case.
Each journey has it's own paths to follow,
as of each and every path, the journey itself has a reason to exist, it's
worthy to the souls experiencing a particular journey, maybe not to us any more
but it is to them.
This will no doubt seem cold hearted to some
people, I can emotionally detach myself from anyone not of my path no matter
who they are. I am not permanently fixated to anything through emotions, of
course at times separation can be emotionally draining and upsetting for me,
after all, separating oneself from someone's path isn't easy, especially when a
lot of emotions are involved. As I become more of my primary self, truer inner
self, I will indeed feel I no longer relate to a reality, a human journey, that
is more of a secondary existence, an existence that is of anything but of it's
truer being.
A secondary existence is all about motions.
Our hair grows so we have to cut it, we get dirty so we have to wash, we go to
work to earn money to survive in a world based purely on motion. A primary existence
is anything but of this kind of motion, there is no need of motion to exist. Motion
doesn't determine if something exists or not, motion, which all secondary
existences are based on, only refers to expressions of motionlessness,
motionlessness being of a primary existence. Basically, motions refer to an
expression or movement of our motionless primary existence.
The reason why our truer being is
associated with our primary existence, has to do with motion itself, as soon as
our primary existence is expressed as motion in a secondary existence, these
expressions become distorted. The reason for this lies entirely on that motion
is created by an ignorance, to one degree or another, of our primary existence.
How much motion today are we creating or expressing and how fast is time now
seemingly going for us? Now how destructive have we become? Destruction relates
directly to motion and how fast motion or time seems to be going, for an
example, is a car going slow going to cause more damage when it crashes than
going fast? Any energy going fast will cause more damage to anything in it's
path than energy going at a slower pace.
Meditating is a prime example of how to
slow down our own energy flows. When we meditate, we become more of our primary
self, numerous other spiritual practices do the same. In a reality primarily of
secondary existence (motion), a balance
of our other existence, the primary existence, is wise, especially when a
secondary existence becomes overly
destructive, especially onto itself.
Primary Existence = motionlessness + slow
or sedate energy flows
Secondary Existence = motion + fast or chaotic energy flows
There
is a distinct difference between writing
from experience, and writing from the
knowledge of experience.
Wisdom
is gained from direct experiences, not knowledge from experiences!!
