Changeless

It is cited as an attribute of God, the state of being Changeless, Deathless:

Never was time it was not; End and Beginning are dreams!
Birthless and deathless and changeless remaineth the spirit for
ever;
Death hath not touched it at all, dead though the house of it
seems!

-The Baghavad Gita 

Speaking here of the eternal soul, this sacred text touches upon the nature of Brahman, or the most high.

The consciousness of the most high is the ocean of light in which we live and have our form.

We ascend to spiritual heights and fall again out of grace.

The higher mind being changeless does not suffer diminished states of consciousness.  That is the definition of reality, vs our relativity.

One is True, the other False.

That which is forever is Truth.  Light is eternal, it's speed is constant.  It is true.  There are other absolutes.

Now you can begin to grasp how Brahman can be and yet be unchanging.  In the Light Heavens, the time is slowed relative to our world.  As Einstein knew, in the highest heavens, time stops, for time itself is relative.

In another life I began reading The Baghavad Gita and I took a trip to the Light World. I told about this in the book: 

Doing Time: The Light Heavens

In this life, I began to study religion and the Bible, and I was sent on another strange journey, courtesy of The Collective.

Some of what I learned is in the book The Circle of Infinity

Unbinding your Karma

You have karmic ties with those involved in your life.

The negative ties are with those you've hurt or wronged, and those who've hurt or wronged you.

You have other ties to those to whom you've made a commitment.

I'm going to address cutting the karmic bonds with someone who hurts you, or someone who angers you.

There are two ways to remove the bond: forgiveness and revenge

If you find the light in your nemesis, you can find something to understand about him or her, some way to let go of your anger.  But do not release the anger until you have transformed it to compassion.

Releasing anger cuts it loose.  No energy is ever destroyed; it is only transformed.  You are karmically responsible for your anger.  So much as one negative word may cut loose a swath of psychic energy that will cause harm to others On Your Behalf!  You will own that karma.

Find the light in your nemesis.  Identify with it.  Calm down.  Can you forgive him? Do you see that he doesn't know what he is doing? We all live in a delusion here.  If you can forgive, then prepare to release your nemesis.

Go into the Light.  Be gone from my Life.

If you want to continue your friendship, then offer your light but remember that now you have a new karmic bond, a commitment.

If you chose the other path, revenge, then the karmic impetus will transfer to your nemesis.  It will be his opportunity to either forgive or punish you.  You may not see it coming.  It may be the next life or the next year.  Right now, you have an opportunity to end it.

Neo

Imagine how disconcerting it must be to find out you're the one.

You had no choice, and no idea.

What would you do?

2030 looms.  It is one of us.

Separation of Church and State

While there are many religions, some people believe their religion should be the state religion.

This is the case not only in the Middle East, and we've heard a lot about sharia law in recent years, but it is also true also in the west.

In America, we have long held to a policy of separation of church and state.  Of course, not everyone agrees with this, and there is even argument about whether such policy is or is not ingrained in law.

The Separation of Church and State in the US has actually come under attack by Christian institutions that instruct their followers to interfere with the laws of the land.  To wit, we have the Kim Davis' of the world who think it (their) privilege to choose and enforce the morality of others according to her interpretation of her own religion.  Enforcing her religious views, and holding them above the law, Ms. Davis and her supporters see themselves as Christian Soldiers.  Others see her and her kind as oppressors, religious extremists.

Having read the entire bible, and studied it, along with other prominent religions and philosophies, I would like to offer my assessment of what is going on here.  The Bible (as with the sacred texts of most religions) is like a Ladder of Spiritual Consciousness.  Some read it and ascend spiritually. Others read the same book and use it to justify condemnation, and judgment.  They devolve spiritually as they become intolerant.  So, these sacred texts can act like a litmus test, they reveal the inner truth.

The fault is not in the book, because it clearly illustrates the failures and subsequent suffering of humanity.  The problem is with human intolerance.  We all must learn to live together peacefully.  Unless you're dead, you are either moving forward or backwards in life, up or down that metaphorical ladder.

Kim Davis chose (made moral and legal decisions) not just for herself but for us, and many see no problem with her actions.  She cannot understand how unethical her behavior is because her consciousness hasn't the capacity.  Arguing scripture with such people might be effective if their minds were open to spiritual growth.  In her case, it is useless.  Religion for such zealots is about control and power.  It is a means to a dishonorable end.

The sad truth is there is no institution, and no ideal, which is impervious to corruption.  It is therefore unfortunate that Kim Davis used her rather minor position to defile both her civil duty and her religion.  By contrast, when such pigheadedness ascends to the power of higher leadership, then we have a moral bankruptcy in the land.  Kim and her ilk were merely a symptom of the diseased thinking that inflames our less educated and more vulnerable population.

Like any illness, the future of the patient depends upon how it is treated and the severity of the inflammation.  As for the opposition, in their worldview, anyone who disagrees with them are perceived as sick and perverted.  Thus the battleground is set.  You decide how you want to live, or others will decide for you.

The Truth

This is the age where the Truth divides us.  Grain by grain, we must separate the Truth from the chaff.

The consequences of believing a lie are to live a lie.  The lie will affect your being, your relationships, your reality.

It may be years or even decades before you are fortunate enough to stumble upon the truth.  On that day you will realize how you built your life upon a lie.  You will not recognize yourself, nor will you value anything you had built or struggled for, because all of your values and ideals were false.

You will enter into a time of mourning or great remorse because you will see that so much of your life was wasted on the untruth, and thus was a false existence.

Never turn your back on Truth, no matter how painful you think your reality has become.  If you have not learned this, now is the time that Truth becomes the Lesson of the ages.

The Truth is under attack in this world.  In the end, Truth is always the last kernel to be found.  Those who have refused to look, will be blindsided. Those who have refused to hear will be unprepared when Truth becomes the last reality.  Their lives built upon sandcastles will be washed away by the ocean of sorrows.  When you live a lie, your life is built upon a foundation of mud.  When you plant seeds of goodness, Truth, love, these will become your companions in life.  The Truth is a strong foundation.  It will withstand the test of time.

Now is the time when the Truth divides us.  You must take care to speak, see and hear nothing but the truth.  You will see others fall away, you will be sad for their loss.  This is their choice.  You can only make yours.  Do not argue at windmills, just state the truth and live it.

The world will make its selection, the truth will be separated from the lies, the wheat from the chaff, for no matter how tedious the process, we have no choice but to do this or starve.

Jesus compared Truth to bread when he made the analogy, 'man lives not by bread alone, but by every word uttered by the mouth of God.'

You are what you eat then, choose a diet of Truth.  Only this way can you save yourself and possibly be of help to another.  You cannot make them see or hear the Truth, you can only be there in case they decide to finally look.

Any time you make a conscious decision to ignore the truth, you give up the ability to see the truth.  You lock yourself into a prison of lies and throw away the key.  It may be lifetimes before you are freed.  For only the Truth can set you Free.

Understanding reality, you need to look a little deeper. Our relative reality has exposed our consciousness to a sliding scale of truths.  Our consciousness has shrunk from the false reality we have fed upon.  There are ways to expand consciousness.  To start getting healthy again, please read my book: The Circle of Infinity

Stewards of the Earth

Traveling can be a pleasure, a temporal pleasure.  Seeing the four corners of the earth can be an exhilaration!

Mother Earth is our home, our lifeline, our playground.  We also make our livelihood from her abundance of treasures, her natural resources.

We are children of the earth and parents of the next generation.  Raising another human being is not advised for those who value temporal pleasures above loving and mentoring another person.  The opportunity to show the world to your children, teach them compassion, values, ethics, cannot be compared to a vacation.  Life is about so much more than pleasure-seeking.

Life comes with opportunity to reach out to your neighbors, and they will live in your inner reality as well.  We are stewards of the earth and keepers of our fellow man.  We are not alone.

Yes, we are children of the earth.  And how do we treat Gaia?

The ancients understood the balance of nature.  They lived simply and in harmony with Mother Nature.  Our disconnect from each other and from the pulse of life of our planet has rendered civilization void of any sensitivity toward our world or its inhabitants.  We destroy nature.  We wage war on ourselves.

This too is part of the cyclical pattern of humanity.  Each generation repeats the lessons of the past.

We are here to teach.

We are here to learn.

These things are done simultaneously.

The lessons of the next world are much more difficult to learn for the insensitive.  This is your place, until you learn its lessons.  The angels of the next world do not speak the higher truths in our language.  You must learn to listen to the cries of the Mother Earth and hear her music when she laughs.  You must learn to hold the heart of your fellow man gently in your thoughts.  When you can speak the language of the angels, you are at Heavens door.

Reading: The Light Heavens  A strange place where nothing is as it appears.

A Moment

Pick a moment in time, any moment, and go back there.  Would you change something, would you just relive it again?

If I could turn back time, I'd spend it all with you. I tell you that I love you and you would stay.

Is that the moment you picked?

Is there someone that you love that you wish you could see again?

These moments are special markers in time.  Because all reality is just congealed moments of consciousness, the special moments that you keep coming back to are the pivotal moments in your life.

Books have been written about these moments, sometimes with alternate endings, sometimes just a straight retelling.  Science has written about these moments, calling them the building blocks of time, and explaining that all time is actually just blocks or moments that fit together and do not have to necessarily fit in the same order.

Yes, that's mind-boggling but if you remember that it's all mind and you know how easily you can change things up in your mind, then you understand how this works.

Pick a moment, the moment you love, or the moments that makes you cringe.  These are special markers that bring you back in time.

The time travelers use these moments.

Don't Mess With the Truth!

"There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad." — 1984

"Deu 18:20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
Deu 18:21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?
Deu 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.

Jer 23:14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah."

The false prophets are not only those who presume to speak for piety and false modesty, while flaunting extravagance and behaving not only indecently, but they treat others with harshness.  They lack empathy for their brothers because they have lost their humanity.

No, these are not all the false prophets, for there have been many sent amongst us.  There are the false prophets who broadcast false information and through deceit and trickery steal the truth from people's minds.  The news agencies bought by political and business monopolies have strangled the truth and deluded the masses.

These are the Times we live in, a time where information lies at our fingertips, but the truth gets lost because of the lies.

All life is a drama, there are levels of truth illustrated in each level of reality.  What happens in the world reflects what happens in the mind.

It was Jesus Christ who advised "And the Truth shall set you Free."  He spoke to his fellow man; they were captives of an alien government.  Always claiming to be not of this world, Jesus identified with the spirit of the law and not the letter of the law, so he identified with the spirit of truth.  He offered spiritual freedom.

“Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God” (1 Peter 2:16, ESV

Activating the Mandala

There is a secret key 🔑 to open the door to our higher consciousness.

The key is hidden in the sacred texts.

The code is woven into the story, and the plot was written and enacted in real time.  The actors willingly took part in the greatest story ever so that you might read it and light up.  For when thine eye is single, thy whole body shall be full of light!

It matters not if you think The Tale is fiction nor if you think it reality.  It is like a spell, but not any form of magic.  The words unlock a secret you hold.

Upon the release, you are ready to act your part.  Then you will begin your journey to Truth.  You too are an agent in the collective tale of enlightenment, and only when each light has shined will all Truth be illuminated.

Loving You

We never really broke up.  We just said goodbye.  In my heart, you're still there.

- A Valentine

Valentine's Day for those missing a loved one, maybe a lost friend or spouse, or part of one's family, or a cherished pet, this is a day where we feel isolated.  There is a sadness in our hearts where there was once joy.

Others celebrate love, and the person grieving their loss can only watch.  This is a hard day for many people.

Take time to show everyone you love ❤️ that you are part of their life today.  A little love goes a long way.  Your children, your parents, your siblings and your lover, all of these should be told especially today that you love them.

Sometimes, life tears people apart in unexpected ways.  Never miss an opportunity to tell them you love them.

❤️

Next Time You Don't Vote

I'm going to commit a faux pas.  Here goes... Our new face of education looks disturbingly like a simpleton.

Is it that bad? Before you judge, WWTS, What Would Trump Say?

Remember Carly Fiorina? 'Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!'

But they go low, we go high, right?  More than the face, I worry about the mouth.  The insult-spewing mouth, can you imagine letting that mouth speak for us? The dim-witted face, dark words, unveiled anger, utter incompetence, this is the collective face of our new leadership.

Water seeks its own level, so the electorate chose one of their own, and he chooses his own.  The people too good to vote let this happen.

Dark Light

Only light casts away darkness.

Yet, there is another force which survives on light, but it is not light.  It is the black hole of consciousness, the dark light.

There are people who throw shade, people who get angry, people who are negative.  There are even some people so overwhelmed with these attributes that they have become malignant personalities.

They survive on negative encounters.  But the problem is, You don't.

The battle draws your energy and weakens you.  The dark light devours you.  The malignant personality, sometimes called an energy vampire, gets stronger from the fight.  Have you ever noticed that?  Do you know someone like this?  Do you realize they are feeding on you?

The malignant personality survives by baiting you, and there is only one defense: do not engage.

This is the principle of defenselessness.  The dark light will consume itself if you do not feed it.

Christ himself exhibited this principle when he refused to defend himself against his accusers.  He also knew that he would rise above his circumstances.  Sometimes the way to win is not to fight.

A cancer survives on the blood of its host.  If the body dies, so does the cancer.  That is why we cut it out when possible, and with the malignant personality the treatment is the same.

You don't have to be their victim.  You don't have to host their insatiable lust for battle.

You can't save them.  You cannot reach them, for it is against the law of God to interfere with another mind.  Save yourself then.  Don't let the darkness consume you.

Your Word

Imagine the world of words as a river pouring into a great sea of thought.

When you drink from the river, is it polluted  -with hate?  Will it make you sick?

Is your river clean and unpoisoned?  Will the words you read and hear strengthen you?

How can you tell the difference?

Hateful language only spreads hate.  One does not need a great mind nor a great education to get this.

When you ingest hate, you spew it out back into the river.  People who hold standards of decorum, behavior, civility, they will begin to avoid you.  Your social circle will be those who are like you, obnoxious and poisoned with hate.

Over time, the effects of anger, hate and negativity will create your own darkness, your own black world.  No one will be able to love you when you hate them.  You will have created a cesspool of ugliness.

Too much hate has fractured our people, and impoverished our thinking.  The people who think they are being clever when they attack and insult others are actually obtuse, too dense to see that the river they pollute is their own.

So draw away from them and leave them in their own slime.  They will choke off from their own filth, and any light you offer them will only prolong the agony, theirs and yours.

You are responsible for your own words, and your own thoughts.  You fill your own river.  

Peace ✌️

Super Bowl

Here's my take on the 84Lumber ad:

See Fortune article and 84Lumber ad

At first I disliked the contractor who built the wall.  Then, I saw he put the huge doors, and I thought he bucked the system.  I was impressed.

The ad's intent was not what I thought.  It was a reminder that the US has legal avenues for immigration and a reminder that the US is a land of great hope and opportunity, a land where immigrants are welcomed.

The lady who paid for this ad is very confused, because she supports a President who has shut the door on legal immigrants with visas and passports, people who came here some for a better life, some for medical treatment, some to join family, but all legal.

She is a confused lady. That is the best I can say about her, she means well, but like the other Trump supporters, she lives in an alternate world a false reality, one which denies the existence of others' pain.  Her world idealizes American values, but fails to live up to its promise.

Advertising is meant to increase profit/sales/market share, but this confused lady spent a fortune to deliver a message she did not understand.  Her business acumen is no better than her politics.

Our President was born with a fortune, and has managed to grossly underperform the market.  His net worth is less than half of what it should be, yet he believes he is very smart, successful.  If he were born to poor Mexican immigrants, he would fit the image he paints of a sexual predator.  His arrogance would be seen for what it is, stupidity and ignorance.  His racism would be quite ugly if he were a brown man calling white America gringos.  He would be seen for what he is, not a role model for anyone, but an ignorant, negative, hostile, judgmental, sexual deviant.

Here's the best I can make of our unfortunate choice of President:  His divisiveness has forced us to take sides.  Those of us who have chosen to stand up for real American values, have marched for liberty and shown compassion for legal immigrants and respected the civil rights of Americans who may not be like us, those of different creeds, sexual preference, gender, race, religion, those are the true Americans.  Sometimes life gives us an unexpected opportunity to stand up and be great.  That Mr. President, is the definition of greatness.  It was written in the American constitution this whole time.  You sir would do well to take a moment to read it.

Christianity vs Politics

According to so-called Fake News CNN, 57% of "white evangelical protestants" believe God played a major role in the election of America's new President.

Our new President has undermined the free press, the judiciary, and his political peers and opponents.

He has surrounded himself with ideologically dangerous people who, like himself, have no experience with the government institutions they are supposed to lead.  He has set the stage for the malfunction of the EPA, department of education, and US military by undermining and replacing their qualified leadership with ideologically opposed and incompetent state heads.

This is not an accident.  At best he is trying to create tension and provoke change, at worst he is laying the groundwork for instability, and incompetence in these essential institutions of American government.

Did God do this to America because of its religious freedoms, was it because of the laws embracing equality for LGBT, women, and minorities? Is America a land of opportunity and equality, a land built by immigrants, or is it a fearful, hate based nation, distrusting our neighbors abroad as well as next door?  Did God do this because of our liberal laws or was it because of our hate?

If God really did this, then God must have decided to destroy America, beginning with its foundations of justice, freedom and liberty.  The division of America is the first step to its downfall.  We no longer accept or even tolerate each other.  There is a cancer on the Presidency, to borrow a phrase.  Like Watergate, I hope and pray the press and every other institution in this country does its job to rid us of this evil man, and incompetent administration.

I personally believe in a higher consciousness and a higher mind, which is all-knowing.  It exists as a continuum, in increasingly enlightened layers of consciousness.  I have encountered some of these layers and interacted with the higher Mind, and my higher Mind has its own higher Mind.   The layers may be infinite for all I know.  But Christ, who was certainly more highly conscious than I, referred to a Most High.  That would be "God."  To be One, which is the goal of all layers of consciousness, is to defer to the higher Mind.

I do know that the proximity of evolved consciousness raises the vibration and consciousness of its surroundings, which is its sphere of influence.  [Read The Circle of Infinity] The plummeting of American ideals and fall from grace is the result of a vacuum of enlightened leadership.  We collectively have fallen from grace here in America.  Our language has become rough, our national dialogue has become hateful, our ideology is become base and derogatory.  We are no longer an inspiration to the world.  We are a source of fear and derision.

This is the pattern of order and disorder, or chaos.  We are going to struggle with this for a while.  It may destroy our country, or even our world, for it is a worldwide sickening.  Out of disorder a new world order may emerge.  You and I must do our part to bring light to those whose minds have been shrouded in darkness, false news.  These are the false prophets.

The Unbelievers

What does Christ mean when he says that you were not there when he needed help, and he does not know you.

Obviously, he said the way we treat the least among us is the way we treat him.

Obviously, he means we are all one.

He is the face of every man.

Who hasn't failed at some point in showing mercy, compassion?

We are all unworthy then, by the standards of perfection.

We all make mistakes.

Forgiveness covers mistakes, when we know not what we are doing.

Willful disobedience is not the same.

When you know you are wrong and you won't show mercy or compassion, you have turned your back on Christ.

You have chosen the world over your brother.

When you look to him for compassion, you will be looking into a mirror, and you will find none.

We are all one.  We are all nothing without the other.

It is your own cold eye you will stare into in the end.
