@John Iverson We could say that relationships are life, the relation between things. When you look to psychedelics, it is a particular relationship that holds archetypal qualities if you will, symbols. Psychedelics represent something to the seeker and maybe your expression wades into these waters. Maybe your desire to journey into reality and to know it, to merge, to become one with it has a particular strength & passion. Maybe when you feel your thoughts and emotions welling up it has a power to it that got put into "Master". To become adept... What I mean is within that intense feeling and symbolic meaning for the substance, the path it offers, and the visions of truth it can offer... to become adept would be to become familiar with in a way that is filled with respect and humility, appreciation and a certain degree of skill. Skill in familiarity and the ability to navigate it successfully, like learning a path through the woods, knowing it so well that when there is a moonless night you are able to walk through it with skill. You don't dominate it but you merge with it... To be adept, to be skillful.. rooted in respect, gratitude, humility, to become friends.. As a rule of thumb I have found that sharing my personal journey's don't deliver and end up a net negative so I refrain.. But.. Lets say death has visited me more than once... and they have been the scariest moments of my life... sheer terror.. feelings that are not desired but once completed can be profound and cherished... It is good to have a caretaker present.. Choices can be made that seem rational in these moments that are not in your best interest or the interest of others.... This all feeds into becoming adept.. Blessings..

@SOUL Yes.... he/she retreats.... we both know... all good, we family in this journey.. you can bring it if you got it to be brought...

My experience has been they are the one to "show", regardless of how "far" a person is in there development. Maybe your desire to "master" is you expressing your desire to be adept at working with them. That is honorable and noble. I would add that for me, adept means being able to navigate all aspects; this doesn't reflect on the emotional enjoyment, to the contrary some of my best journeys have been the scariest moments of my life...

@jimwell I am at this funny stage where I don't really disagree with people form the place where something is right and the other is wrong. The idea that anything is right or wrong doesnt make sense from a "higher" perspective. Its like anything we can think of does exist and is correct from the place it is being proposed. Then again it is "wrong" from a place that is opposite. What I am saying is, in my world at present... nothing is wrong or right and everything is wrong and right... my ego identity my position within my evolution makes judgement about what is wrong and right for my continued movement in the evolving spiral. But.. My deeper, truer, sense of self that is free of my ego and body doesn't hold these right / wrong perspectives... So I am living in different places simultaneously... might sound weird.. or you might get it.. if it sounds weird that is ok.. keep it in mind though as you go through your journey... when they talk about dual and nondual.. this is part of that story.. "Is it really possible to implement? " Anybody can live on the whim of their intuition and attempt to channel the universe... what that produces, I guess, is a separate issue.. You run scenarios in your mind, what if everyone on the planet in this moment stopped living my our agreements to one another, our plan... What if everyone on the planet decided to only do what their intuition told them to do? Maybe people's intuition is to have some structure in their life in order to develop systems that assist our evolution... "Why make a distinction between the Universe's plan and the ego's plan? Why not creation by the ego as the Universe's way of creation? After all, the Universe created the ego." Technically the ego's plan is part of the universe's plan.. First a person has to believe that the design of reality is wrong and that it needs to be fixed. You will see the majority of the forum believe's that something needs to be fixed, they basically believe the design of reality is wrong. What they don't understand is that they simply don't understand the design and that nothing is wrong, they simply don't see the truth. "Are there any real-life examples of "winging it 24/7"? Did Bill Gates create Microsoft by the Universe's will or his ego's will? It was probably through his ego's will. But why is Microsoft very successful and impactful? Isn't that an evidence that the Universe created Microsoft through Bill's ego?" Again maybe all things exist (if you see any of my posts, I am a big proponent of all things exist at all moments; i no longer am in the dominant "this or that" mode).. And the Universe is winging it within the structure of reality... It is both at the same time.. Bill Gates was structured and following his ego but he was also winging it and feeling the inspiration of creation and the universe... This damn mentality of "this or that" people are constantly pushing all the time... people want to know, be the holder of absolute reason.. either it is free will or predetermined... (I am also seeking knowledge, to be in the know, but it is a position of certainty within uncertainty that is certain, sorry for the riddles it is how it is though.. can't do anything about that at the moment, i need to grow more and maybe it will become clearer.) Hope this is food for thought... again any talk with me isn't about right or wrong, or absolutes.. we are just kicking around ideas.. I offer my thoughts for pondering not resolution.. be well.

@Leonora hmmm... think nonduality means there isnt anything outside of "the one".. so a bubble in a bubble bath full of bubbles has way more going on then the unified field.. Your thoughts? I think what I was attempting to convey was multiple perspectives and how those perspectives have multiple perspectives and therefore we don't have to think "sadness" as you say is something to be sad about... i dunno.. spit balling here.. Thanks for sharing thoughts... do appreciate it..

@SOUL Where did I say child abuse was all in the mind? Or are you one of those people who loves to throw shocking examples like child abuse whenever possible, like it is some sort of power move? Don't worry you aren't the only one to say child abuse at every opportunity.. And I would attempt to have dialogue around this but you seem to be more into displaying your chest beating prowess.. No need to over think you say, while thinking and typing away those thoughts of yours.. pure hypocrisy.. My point was that the binary is both real and and illusion, dual and nondual, to the one that sees it, you totally missed that while accusing me of being stuck within it (maybe that says more about you and where you are, your whole post speaks to where you are).. Dualism is dual my young learner... as in two.. indifference is how you feel towards a dual position... ouch.. i would consider this comedy but you seem to really think you are throwing down some serious knowledge... it is knowledge but of a certain kind... Thanks, I think...

@Nahm The question was rhetorical... But appreciate.... Maybe things exist in multiple forms or layers.. Illusion or not.. Nondual as No-thing doesnt mean that I myself, illusion or not, am No-thing while being something.... I believe the line you are pushing, which is used by many people, should be reevaluated, the whole your self is ONLY an illusion (true but the full truth... maybe not). While it is true maybe there is a deeper truth that consists of more layers. This idea that if it isn't fundamental reality then it isn't reality and it doesn't exist.. I think it is kinda played out at this point.. Also here is the full quote, might help when interpreting and replying: lol.. Kinda like the media when they take a slice of something and twist it... poking fun here.. all in good humor.. (someone might try to make an argument for being non-dual as being pro but how can something non-dual be one if there is no other?) as you see, what you said is in the full quote, hence the rhetorical question.. On 1/16/2020 at 9:47 AM, RevoCulture said: how can something non-dual be one if there is no other? @Nahm said: What is not two is not a thing. You are not a thing.

@WelcometoReality "Even things that brings happiness can be based in illusion, based in thought, but why take the time to see through that when we can take that time to see through that which brings us suffering?" The irony I found in practice of the esoteric teachings is... That what we think brings us happiness tends to be attachment and that isn't true happiness, that happiness lies in the reunification with the whole. Merging with the whole is seeing through all illusion where there is no longer a preference, only acceptance. Desiring happiness or averting suffering is actually the dualism game and the only way through is to unify the halves and see that they are actually the same... When we see that the attachment to happiness is suffering and that not avoiding the suffering is contentment we become whole again,,, If that makes any sense..

Interesting..

@Serotoninluv You obviously have plenty of time and interaction on this forum. I have incredibly limited time on the forum in comparison and I have a question. The topic of this thread, how common is it? I feel like i have seen this expressed multiple times, it makes sense really. Thanks

Nice Post.. Much Appreciated... I have given myself time to relish in your thoughts/feelings/insights.. So refreshing.. If you go to the Perennial Philosophy of the Great Nest there is the idea of a spiraling evolution, an awakening process. If you haven't checked that out it is worthwhile. In that line of thought enlightenment is encapsulated as a process not a isolated event. This deterministic argument is hot at the moment, most people divide it into a yes or no question. I am not a fan of the yes or no, think it is oversimplified. For example, can a grey spot be both light and dark, yes. Can a person be both tall and short, yes. Can strength also be flexible, yes. Almost everything is everything else if we look deep enough. I believe free will and fate my work the same way, they are both present. My two sense and totally unpopular and possible not really even considered. "good" is a relative term and what is often considered "good" in our modern society is not so "good" for many other forms of life, human and otherwise. This is the crux of the situation, the discovery process, the unfolding and enfolding of reality as we awakening to deeper levels of Truth. What is a feeling of "good", what is rooted in, to whom does it apply, and what does that say. I really appreciate you post and take anything I have written as ah whatever.. seriously not serious.. just kickin it around..

@jimwell Doesn't this line of thinking sound appealing "forget the ego and merge with reality as it is".... oohhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh oooooooooo LMFAO.. Life is like a perfect circle and people like Eckhart say this point on the perfect circle is the best... This part of the arc is the best part.. Be like this part.. The part that has removed all obstacles... Oh wow Eckhart, amazing insight... We have a perfect circle that represents all the aspects of life and you have deemed the best part is the part that appeals directly to your ego.. the ego wants to be free of all the things he describes not the true self... The true self is all things none better or worse and is simply going through the motions, there is no sense of urgency from a position of right and wrong or good and bad. there is only the dance for the sake of the dance... do i want to move forward sure, but not from the position these "types" of people are offering... This idea that the best thing to do or that anyone should be doing is held within one aspect or reflection of life is an age old quandary. People want definitive answers, they want a linear path, they want certainty so they develop methods of logic and reason that deliver it... "A guitar player is on a street corner just playing".. oh.. the guitar that was designed and manufactured.. the wood that was harvested, milled, trucked.. the trucks that were designed and built, the diesel that was refined.. the guitar player's clothes that were designed manufactured, shipped, stocked, sold.. oh the streets that were laid out, machines built to pave, cities that governed, oh the evolution through trial and error to become capable to play and appreciate... i could go on for days... but none of that matters when we get to break life off into these nice tiny little isolated packets... there was a guitar player on a street corner JUST playing and magic happened... love it... why.. cause it is absolutely true until it isn't.. Teachings like this are a step up from one thing and a step down from another... It serves our modern masses, why he is so popular... gives them a step up perspective... disclaimer.. right and wrong don't exist in the big picture.. good and bad don't exist in the big picture... all is truth from the place it is rooted... what I am saying is BS and truth at the same time.. if you are in a certain place what I am saying makes sense, if your in another what I am saying is complete rubbish.. this isn't about right or wrong... He speaks deep wisdom and so does a babbling 10 year old child to one who is 6 years old... Is there something wrong about being 10 or 6, no... is the 10 year old not wise, no... If anyone has reactions to these statements it is rooted in position of perception.. It is all truth, not the Truth but some form of truth... I acknowledge my own incredible limitations to Truth, IDK.. but if I think I am hearing some overly simplified language about merging with unity from a guy who lives a modern isolated life with a big fat bank account and publishing books promoting "unity" through division I am going to say something.. (yes, i know about his park bench days).. Love isn't all rainbow and butterflies.. I respect him and the contribution he is making and attempting but it doesn't mean that he has it dialed in and that there isn't more beyond his interpretation.. peace out..

I wonder if reality offers litmus tests for us to counter-check our own proclamations & actions? As a young person on the journey, desperately desiring someone or something to make sense of it all it is easy to get swept up in big ideas, big speak. I wonder if one of the litmus tests that life offers us is this: Truth is free of internal strife or division, it is unity in a sense, where all things flow in proper order. Even the division itself is within unity, it is understood thus no strife. In Truth all has its place and functions like a well oiled machine, the function, purpose, method is known unto itself. As Truth becomes clouded, the sense of self or understanding becomes divided and conflict is introduced through ignorance. Thus anything outside of Truth tends to lash out at the opposite, the way "unity, illuminated minds, spiritual seekers" tend to advise against things they believe are not "unity, illuminated, spiritual"... People who knew deep aspects of Truth would be able to function & integrate with one another in a very close and intimate manner. People of deep truth, know truth in a way that allows them to see themselves in a degree that promotes harmony and healthy co-habitation in ways that are not present in large scale today. This is a simple observation that if seen clearly makes sense. It isn't a mark of good or bad, right or wrong, simply a matter of function & form within the evolutionary spiral. Sooo.. It would make sense that we could ask among the half million posts in this forum. How many people's lives are being lived in a model of daily form and function that has them deeply integrated with one another, a lifestyle that would require conscious understanding and embodiment of deep truth? I don't live in that space, lets get that out of the way, no shame in my game. Knowing this about myself puts me in a position that I must acknowledge and own about my own degree of conscious knowledge. If I really new unity and illuminate then I would be functioning in a manner that reflected it but I operate in a way that mirrors where I actually am not where I intellectually portray I am. I say this for the newer seekers. Recognize the desire in yourself to come across people with answers and for the answers themselves. The type of community that is reflected in the advise that is being regularly given has yet to manifest on a large scale (what that is and how it functions could be a source of debate, undoubtedly), it hasn't manifested because people do not embody the qualities to a degree that will allow them to function together. This is a litmus test of their true knowledge, this is not taking anything away from anyone. I believe all is inevitable, I actually like the idea that space and time are emergent properties and that fundamental reality doesn't contain them; thus all is already. I am not fixated on the right or wrong, good or bad; so there is no way to tie what I am saying to some sort of harsh critique. What I am projecting is that there is a evolutionary spiral at work and that as much as the egos within the forum believe they hold vast knowledge and love dishing it out to people who are being cracked open.. we, myself included, live out our days within a reality that is reflective of our true embodiment of the wisdom we hold. Make what you will of that. If people were as enlightened as they seem to be projecting they would easily drift into formation of new culture and society. They aren't and don't because of the truth of the moment, their actual position of awakening (again myself included). This is the litmus test that no person can fake. We can project all the words and intellectual meanings we want, but our actions and our lives speak to the real degree of truth we embody. I say this with love, I say this for those younger seekers... Listen, drink in what is being shared, and know that there is a ton of spiritual ego being injected, projected, into what is being given. And.. This is precisely how it works.. This is the path, the stages & states that cannot be bypassed only traversed; at what speed we are the ones to choose with our commitment to our practices and maybe some sort of predetermined timeline, who knows. Actions which are being compared to truthful awakening are not justified by the mutual celebration of human participation, they are relegated (free of right or wrong, good or bad) to the stage and state of which they represent and often a mixture across many. People are primarily what they do, while they are doing this they bring in new growth stimuli that they incorporate and thus change their actions. The changing of actions changes relationships, new relationships changes culture and society. Changing culture and society is nothing more than the newborn becoming a toddler, becoming a young child, adolescent, young adult etc... Bottom line, myself included, our greatest expression of embodied knowledge is the life we live not the intellectual jargon we deliver.. Litmus tests... find some that work for you to help balance things out..

@OmniYoga I connect to the experience of "love" as being another word for radical acceptance steeped in the wisdom of what is. It isn't something locked within duality and represented by emotions or processes that are deemed desirable by the one seeking what people call "love". The hippie communes should be celebrated for their contribution to the search for "what it means to collaborate and commune". What ended up being some amazing experiments of attempting to negate swaths of reality in hopes of rising above life itself, becoming greater than life itself... oh man.. I am so grateful those experiment are done and available of integration in pursuit of the next... All must touched upon.. The torch passes on. From link to link within the chain we role. I gotta get back to working on something that will one day be looked upon as absurdity, something people are actively trying to replace... but.. they will be grateful it was me and those I am collaborating with who undertook the process.... lmao.. reality, you trickster... thanks..

@d0ornokey Me too hommie... listener in training.... Such a wild experience, listening to someone and having the ego rise up, wanting to tell the other person about how "I know" "listen to my intelligence" "let me tell you how it is"... ahaha.. To feel that feeling coming up and be able to recognize.. to hold up.. and.... just listen.... ughhhhhhhhh... winning... listening.... hahahaaaa. Cheers..

@d0ornokey Sometimes I wonder if what people need is someone to listen... Someone who listens while a person digs deep, attempts to bring their feelings and thoughts to the surface, and through their own expression they hear themselves, they contemplate, they feel... and.. In this mixture the essence of the listener, the intelligence and heart of their field is present, this supports, opens, shares.... Our society seems to put much emphasis on being knowledgeable, expressing and proclaiming how intelligent we are, how "we know" what to do and how to fix... Listening.. It is a powerful thing.. Obviously it isn't 100% and isn't for every situation..

@electroBeam Question, if you have the time... In my write up I said that maybe there are states and stages and within this space the full mix of these expressions might exist. It seems you drove my inquiry into the mind alone, is there a reason? And are you saying that sadness and hatred etc don't exist outside of the mind? And a question about "misunderstanding" the path.. isn't every interpretation of the path just a sliver of the absolute Truth, as in aren't we all in a state of not fully understanding the path, are we in more of an unfolding and enfolding process? You seem to be very advanced. Thanks.

Bravo.. That is what I am saying... If it is ALL in the "mind" as you say.. why, why oh why, is there so much emphasis on negating people's "negative" experience and trying to tell them to be "positive"?

If the mods come down on this thread it is a most insightful reflection on themselves and the platform in general. I haven't read anything up to this post that isn't heartfelt, honest, compassionate in its sharing. I am also a proponent of acknowledging that the content Leo is sharing is not his or new, the content has been and will always be. What is Leo's is the relationship to the material and his reproduction of truth through his own words, body language, artistic expression. If we look to Clare Graves or Spiral Dynamics we see that perspectives are boundless and rooted in the place they are derived from, none absolute. With this in mind Leo's sharing is equally biased and rooted in the places from which he derives his shared perception. It is impossible to bring totality into any verbal projection, despite our best attempts to do so. It seems the age old pitfall is the seeker over projecting onto the one who appears to be offering valuable insight. This is a rabbit hole unto itself. Leo is doing a fabulous job in what it is he is doing, Leo is being Leo. The degree of truth in his sharing will vary depending on who is receiving, from where they come, and to where they wish to go. To the topic starter... Brave post, much appreciated... To all those speaking with kindness and truthfulness well done..

Haven't seen these couple mentioned yet.. (shout out to Walking Life!) I Heart Huckabees Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds series - On Youtube Samadhi series - found on Youtube Kymatica - Found on Youtube - starts out with more "spiritual" stuff and then heads into government / society Zietgiest opening on religion recycling was powerful

@DeannaDevil Question... If you could suspend everything we know about our day to day formal existence within society and culture, somehow put that in a box and think/feel outside of it could you reflect on this... Before that.. In this box you are putting all the injustices, the struggle, the judgments, sadness, feelings of inadequacy, the lack of desire to commit to a programming, all the things that bring about the weight... Ok.. Now, with that in the box... Do you enjoy walking through space, the lines, shapes, colors that come at your through your pupils? Do you enjoy the contrast, the hue & value of color within the objects that surround you? What about taste? How about being touched, snuggling with someone you feel emotionally connected to? Do you enjoy laughing? What about expressing yourself? How about being appreciated by another person? Do you enjoy any of these things, without trying to turn them into a way to maintain existence in our society? Do you simply enjoy them in the moment? Think I am trying to separate the idea of liking something and the imposed societal system of sustaining existence through repetition of action in exchange for "life". Make sense?

Any reflections on this thought process? What if the human experience is like a single grain of sand? Within this single grain lies all the things that makes being human, human. This single grain of sand sits among other grains. Each grain represents yet another experience of what it is like to be something or someone in our universe. Think of any beach, and then another, and then another. Imagine picking up a handful of sand and letting it pour to the ground while getting that overwhelming sense of how many grains are in a single scoop. How many beaches line the coastlines, how vast are the deserts, how expansive the plains and within all of these how many handfuls of sand, dirt, or soil; how many grains? Is our single grain, the one that represents our experience, both amazing and arbitrary? Is our experience something that feels like it is of utter importance and from another perspective just another aspect of life to be undertaken, no better or worse? Since it is our personal experience do we tend to inflate its value to the disruption and demise of others? Do we get obsessed with other grains of sand before we fully understand our own? Do we lust after super powers & imagine ourselves in ways foreign to the innate characteristics of our grain and why? Do we lose the sense of our majestic nature when it is commonplace among every human, the ability to walk, talk, see, hear, smell, feel, think? Are our 5 senses, the character traits of this grain, not super powers; the same as any superhero? Should we not learn how to master these capabilities, to hone them into skills that allow us to live harmoniously among one another, to care for one another, to steward our home? Is it important to learn to crawl before walking, walk before running, learning balance before attempting acrobatics? Why do people seek out the abilities of senses beyond what has already been granted? Why do people who have clearly not mastered what they have lust for more? When people have not freed themselves from the chains of the lower nature lust and wield great power what typically happens? Do we want people who don't know how to live in tightly knit community that functions harmoniously without tools of division and separation having "physic powers"? Why are physic powers even lauded over, why are they so interesting, why do people get so excited and want them so badly? Is there incredibly beauty and grace in welcoming what is common, what is now, the place in which we reside in the evolutionary spiral, humility? Accepting our grain of sand and looking upon one another in awe and amazement for what we share and are capable of and not seeing it as curse, or lesser than, or commonplace; is this not part of the lesson? My superpowers; I open my eyes, I move my blessed vessel to locations on this globe, I reach out and touch another's hand, they look softly into my eyes and mine theirs, lips part and words are exchanged, I drink them in and my heart warms... We reveal desires, we make plans.. we see ourselves within the other.. We function as an organism, taking care of one another.. Inter-dependence.. Isn't this the promise of great power, to make our lives amazing? Don't we hold the ability to become all we dream but we haven't mastered the powers we currently possess? Is getting wrapped up in abilities beyond what we have earned or mastered wise? This grain of sand, being human.. I will polish this grain.. I am but a single grain among countless others and I am content while also carefully carrying the desire for motion, movement to the next.. I am all things while embodying this fractal. I lust, I am amazed, I desire more, I get lost but I have be shown the stepping stones through which i must pass and... the pain, the struggle, the contentment of many depends on humbly submitting to this grain, this step, this life, this expression.. Any feelings / thoughts?

Can relate.

@butcho Embracing the grey I read your words and attempt to feel a meaning, I seek your heart & the intention of your questioning evolution. Regardless of the technical interpretation of the words used, outside of the rigid lines of proper philosophical definition I seek to hear what it is you wish to convey. What I wonder is when you say transcend culture do you mean that you have seen the large scale collective functioning and long for another? You may not know what it is, where it could be, but what you see doesn't provide what is beckoning from within? I find there are plenty of "enlightened" or "wise" people who have found knowledgeable interpretations of remarkable depth and wisdom that offer paths to more of the same but with understanding that somehow makes them feel above it, outside it, while remaining solidly within it. They hold insight that allows them to paint remarkable linguistic portraits of the fabric that forms our experiences. They can see where we are brilliantly, however, they have a hard time seeing where we are not. How do you know something that you have never consciously witnessed? How do you embody a "culture" that has not yet taken root? Every opinion is rooted in some aspect of truth, there is varying degrees of value to be gleaned. When the opinions are played out, when the path they offer is walked, where does it lead in the infinite chain of expression? I believe there are expressions of culture on the horizon, expressions that are mapped upon perceptions and insights that function differently than what we are currently existing within (uncomfortably for many of us, if I may add). Maybe your internal compass feels & desires the new and is no longer satisfied with maintaining status quo, simply "making sense" of what is present in a way that acts more like a sedative. Maybe you have "transcended culture" in the sense that what is being expressed no longer resonates. This is beyond bad and good, right and wrong. This is simply the awakening or evolution of being at play, from one paradigm to the next, wandering through a misty cloud of grey seeking the cultural expression that temporarily feels like home. What I am saying (just another voice in the wilderness finding its way, degree of value is TBD)... The "past" or what we have achieved is easier to reflect upon and take stock of then the "future" or what we are moving towards, this is something mostly unknown. The future in the sense of fine details, the evolving expression we know as our lives, the awakening journey; this is mostly unknown. Fortunately we have the pillars that construct the framework, the steady reliable pillars which can be used to navigate the way the stars used to assist those masters of the high waters. With incredible precision we can navigate into the unknown and engage with what lies ahead. To look forward, to actively seek out and construct the new, means to no longer being transfixed with the past or where we are at present. The past and present are incredible sources of information and education, examples, points of origin used to calculate position and trajectory. The journey is the destination, the destination is the journey. Seekers may have the best of intentions but they live within this truth, hindsight is sharp and detailed predictions of the future, well, not so much. @Leo Gura is undoubtedly one of my favorite personalities delivering truths that comprise the Truth but even he is held within this space (delivering with grace, grit, game-changing effectiveness,.. Thank You!). His remarkable skill is evident when it comes to reflecting on broad large scale truths that exist deep within the fabric, truths that remain relatively stable and constant; acting as pillars. Transcending duality liberates a person in a confining way, it allows them to return to duality and resume the process in a new way. Sure there might be that newly found vision that offers a unifying insight that obliterates right and wrong, good and bad but... but.. Rabbit hole for another time.. Point here is.. this space,, held within the pillars of deep Truth, from which we build tomorrow is murky for all of us... ALL of us. I have seen videos of Leo owning this, make that clear. There is a big difference between dissecting and witnessing eternal truths of the Truth, the pillars that build the structural framework and the constant stream of temporary states of evolution. The grand chain of links, one leading to the next. The expressions of potential that dance their way through the story of creation. The unfolding and enfolding of expression, the movement from link to link in the chain, is more akin to the interior design, the decoration, of the structure, not the structural framework. Culture and society have been constantly changing their expression, Spiral Dynamics or esoteric wisdom traditions, throughout history and will continue to do so. There are many of us that see the society and culture around us while feeling one that hasn't manifested to a degree that soothes the itch. The itch might be a motivating irritation, one that propels us to continue to do our part in the development of what is attempting to be brought forth. Inside of all of us lies the totality of existence, the fabric of reality, a direct link to Truth. It beats inside of us, it calls to us. It asks each of us to do our part, to fulfill the stages of evolution of which we are presently tasked. For those of us on the forefront we have an interesting challenge, we don't necessarily have examples to look to for guidance. There are those that can help us understand the framework, the deep truths of Truth that construct the framework but when it comes to developing the temporary expression of continued evolution which replaces the one which is now and will eventually be replaced... well... here we are... What I am saying... Listen to that internal calling, listen to others but don't let that internal beacon be smothered. There is a new tomorrow that needs to be built (not because it is better or right and what is now is wrong or bad, because it is what is next), it will take those whose vision can see the unseen, know the unknown, and become what is... Blessing my friend...
