(B03C25) Chapter 25: Player 1 vs. Player 2
Dream-Team Magicians Going Head-to-Head on a Split-Screen Minotaur
“PROTECTED. SUBCONSCIOUSLY CONNECTED TO A HIGHER LAW. MY EYES ARE SCENE WINDOWS CAUGHT UP IN WAVES AND CRESCENDOS, ABANDONED BY A FREQUENCY AND BURNT UP IN DAILY 3D RE-ENTRY.” – “PROTECTED” BY JD STAHL
As the days progressed, I started to recognize that my consciousness was fluctuating between different densities and planes throughout the day. At first, I felt I was led into these spaces, protected by an energy that created a barrier between me and these other worlds. However, now I felt as if I had merged with that barrier, giving me the ability to manipulate the energy that was around me. Essentially, I started to feel that my external world was an extension of my physical body—like a spiritual limb that would move and change in accordance to my conscious will. While my sensitivity increased, I developed an ability to sense changes in various pressures around me—like humidity that increased or decreased based on how I perceived the world from one moment to the next.
While I was engaged or balanced in these transcendent states, it became difficult to tell the difference between one moment in the next. In a sense, it was like I was consciously falling asleep, yet being able to remember both sleeping and waking states with the same set of physical senses. Anytime I would return into the “dream,” I would find myself suspended outside of time. In this suspended state, everything seemed to change—from the barometric pressure to the color of sunlight, the weather, and the number of people that I was able to recognize in the external environment. Compared to what I knew most of my life to be “normal,” this “other world” was magic—full of synchronistic moments, absent of problems, accidents, or even insignificant frustrations. Everything felt like a perfectly-choreographed dance routing.
From event to event and moment to moment, I was led with a sense of purpose. By identifying with/as this purpose, I was accompanied by an energy of guidance that would bestow upon me a intimate “knowing” that was native to each plane. Each plane, dimension, or density arrived upon me with a unique set of perspectives, symbols, metaphysical powers and abilities, visions, and lessons that silently motivated me to expand my conscious awareness in every direction. In a sense, I was in a fully-immersive simulation as an avatar that was being guided by the invisible energy of a “player” who was holding the proverbial controller in a plane outside of my sensory awareness. As long as I was able to balance my identification as both subjective and objective (creator and creation) simultaneously, I would be able to remain in co-creative states. However, when I failed to see purpose and, instead, created a bias to one pole or another, I would fall into more dense states. As a result, I would feel disconnected from this higher presence.
"OF COURSE IT’S EMBARRASSING NOT TO ALWAYS BE INFINITELY WISE, BUT I FEEL THAT WHAT WE CAN OFFER EACH OTHER IS OUR TRUTH OF THE PROCESS OF GROWING, AND THAT MEANS WE FALL ON OUR FACE AGAIN AND AGAIN. SRI AUROBINDO SAYS, 'YOU GET UP, YOU TAKE A STEP, YOU FALL ON YOUR FACE, YOU GET UP, YOU LOOK SHEEPISHLY AT GOD, YOU BRUSH YOURSELF OFF, YOU TAKE ANOTHER STEP, YOU FALL ON YOUR FACE, YOU GET UP, YOU LOOK SHEEPISHLY AT GOD, YOU BRUSH YOURSELF OFF, YOU TAKE ANOTHER STEP…' AND THAT’S THE JOURNEY OF AWAKENING.” – RAM DASS
At first, I felt the loss of connection to these higher planes quite painfully. Every time that I would feel distant from my higher self, I would question whether or not I had done something wrong. In essence, I felt like a child trying to walk, only to fall in front of an invisible “parent” of my eventual divinity. Like a child, at first I felt shame, sadness, and guilt for not feeling I had done “enough” to maintain my place of higher vibration. However, as soon as I was able to release the energy of frustration and accept the moment for what it was, I released my attachment to “needing” to be in those higher states. Without the tension to perpetuate the distance between my higher and lower self, like a buoy, I would return to the surface where I could again attain the state of awareness where I could receive each present moment for its fullness.
What I was able to recognize in these lessons of humility was that I simultaneously had control as much as I did not have control. Simply by creating a system of duality where authority existed, I had to occupy both states in order to populate the fluctuation between states. I found that when I was confident that I was in control of the variations that I instead searched for the purpose behind the fluctuations. Basically, I recognized that there were lessons that were to be learned in both states. Without being able to create alignment between the higher and lower densities, I would only be enforcing the necessity of polarity. Therefore, I had to balance myself internally so that when densities would change, I would remain consistent—the link between the physical and spiritual densities.
When I was successfully able to balance both aspects of myself (physical and spiritual), it became easier to identify both of them as equally subjective to the objective “witness” or metaphysical awareness. In this state of awareness, I was both and neither, allowing me to continuously reshape and change my ego/identity/persona in accordance to the subtle energy of my immediate environment. Essentially, it was impossible for me to feel a sense of surprise in response to spontaneity. At the same time, I also felt like there was something “else” that was controlling my body and mind.
From the perspective of the “witness,” I merely observed my activity as both part and separate beings. I was neither the avatar nor the holder of the controller that determined my thoughts and actions. This type of observation completely disconnected my consciousness from the dense vibrations of my physical experience. In a sense, it was like sitting in a movie theater that was hidden within the depths of my physical body. Without density or tension, all I felt was joy—like being showered with unconditional love by a higher being that was both myself and that which was eternally greater than anything of which I could ever consciously conceive.
Why Ewes Use the Gain Genie to Play Spiritus Contra Spiritum
“YET THIS BEAUTY IS UNBOUNDED. AND INTELLIGENCE THAT’S UNFOUNDED. PURE WHITE RECEPTION. ENDLESS FIELDS OF EUPHORIC INTENTIONS. THE STRUGGLE IS WHERE I AM BORN. AND SYNAPSES FIRE WHEN I’M TORN. COMPLICATED INNER MISERY WITH MY BITTERSWEET REJECTIONS.” – “LETTERS FROM INSIDE” BY JD STAHL
In the state of consciousness where I was free of either planning or spontaneity, I was able to connect to the energy that was seemingly in control of all natural phenomena—living and non-living. Instead of willing changes from a state of subjectivity or preference, I only identified the purpose with every action or non-action. Everything that was done was perfect and purposeful; without seeking to change or rationalize with past, present or future, I entered a space of knowing where I knew the answers to “why” all things were occurring as they were.
In this way, I was training myself to identify with the paradox so that I would never feel as if anything was an accident, mistake, or problem. The more that I experimented with manipulating my reality from both states of consciousness—the creator and the creation—the more I was able to amplify my sensitivity to the difference in densities. As a result, I could feel my abilities in discernment increase the clarity of my internal dialogue—the fluctuation conversation between my higher and lower self-concept.
The difference between these two primary states of awareness, therefore, was the inherent identification with either my present perspective or the environment in which I was presently perceiving my reality. In some moments, my environmental “higher self” was my physical body. The difference between internal monologue and biological environment was based more on physical sensation—an attentiveness to how I was feeling, point of focus, or relationship to my personal desire system. Essentially, this local environment was a fine discernment between a limited ego and the representative psychopomp which could embody any/all possibilities. By giving more of my attention to the discernment between self and non-self, I became more sensitive to not only my desire systems but also the fears that were relative to the loss of the things that I felt supported every separate egoic persona or identity.
Once I was able to release the attachments I had to my persona, I found the clarity necessary to balance both self and non-self. This allowed me to expand into my immediate external environment. Outside the limits of my personal environment, I could feel my toroidal field of metaphysical/electromagnetic awareness increase in diameter—effecting my physical environment that would create synchronistic phenomenon. The changes that we, as humans, make in our external environment will also change our aura—the electromagnetic field that surrounds us. Therefore, in order to be able to protect ourselves in any physical environment, we have to essentially get over ourselves. Being able to co-create with our physical environment in a manner that does not create karma requires that we are able to be truthful to ourselves from moment to moment. At the very least, we are required to acknowledge our thoughts, feelings, and emotions without feeling the need to suppress, correct, or deny them.
“WHAT ARE YOU LOOKIN' AT? THERE'S NOTHING TO SEE; JUST A COOL BREEZE THAT'S ENCIRCLING ME. LET'S GO FOR A WALK IN THE GARDEN—SO FAR AND SO WIDE. WE CAN SIT IN THE SHADE BY THE FOUNTAIN-SIDE.” – “FALSE PROPHET” BY BOB DYLAN
When we are no longer attached to a singular concept of self or non-self, we begin to soften to the energy around us. The more we are protected by our own electromagnetic field that is karmically aligned with Natural Law, the more we are able to amplify our sensitivity. As we are able to feel safe in this heightened state of vulnerability, our openness to energy itself allows us to learn the language hidden in the ambience of charges. What surrounds us is a veritable windstorm of separate and collected ionic charges.
This ionic “breeze” is actually manifested by the reciprocal energy produced from suppressed awareness. Essentially, it is the product of areas of “darkness” or unawareness that still reside within us that intends to bring us into unity. Therefore, when we are no longer surprised by what occurs in our immediate environment, there is no more darkness. When nothing exists to surprise us—positively or negatively—the “darkness” is expelled. Anything that calls us to respond emotionally outside of our composure can therefore be considered a part of ourselves that we have yet to bring to unity between our higher and lower selves.
By finding clarity between states of awareness, our environment will present itself as an invisible guide that only wishes to help us transition between states/levels/planes of consciousness. We will perceive synchronicity to be miracles until the point at which we see them as a direct extension of our subconscious—as a part of our nonphysical being that we must claim as equal to our physical self. The highest possible representation of our proverbial “twin flame” is the energy which manifests in our non-physical environment. Our relationship with this spiritual “partner” is what allows us to heal as fast as we age, preserving us in a perpetual state of purity, innocence, and protection. The identity of this partner is neither male nor female; it only represents the reciprocal broadcast of our energy from moment to moment.
“KNOW YE, O MAN, THAT THY FORM IS DUAL, BALANCED IN POLARITY WHILE FORMED IN ITS FORM. KNOW THAT WHEN FAST ON THEE DEATH APPROACHES, IT IS ONLY BECAUSE THY BALANCE IS SHAKEN. IT IS ONLY BECAUSE ONE POLE HAS BEEN LOST. KNOW THAT THE SECRET OF LIFE IN AMENTI IS THE SECRET OF RESTORING THE BALANCE OF POLES. ALL THAT EXISTS HAS FORM AND IS LIVING BECAUSE OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN ITS POLES.” – THOTH/HERMES TRISMEGISTUS
Perfecting our relationship with this “twin” requires us to give as much as receive. Complementing the spiritual embodiment of Omega, we assume the position of Alpha—the dominant masculine/feminine in physical form (the Magician). In this role, we act purely as a channel of energy. Therefore, instead of trying to control our immediate environment to suit our present state of awareness, we do the opposite. We allow ourselves to transition from identity to identity so that we can easily conform from moment to moment, giving us the ability to channel only that which is pure and not conducive to our egoic identity or persona. We process through these changes until we are no longer favor nor object to any specific personality or perspective of reality. As a result of perfecting the relationship with our self and non-self (twin), everything that we create is both physical yet perfectly maintains the energetic integrity of that which can be known as “divine.”
However, as a “Magician,” we are not required to produce any materialistic “thing” in our physical environment. Our capacity to create or manipulate energy can also manifest itself through our physical senses. As a magician, sage, prophet, etc. we are able to produce moments, experiences, new archetypes formed from unique signatures of any which are available in part or whole. Even more than what can be proven or witnessed in the physical world, those who are aligned with their spiritual counterpart are able to produce gateways, portals, or doors through which universal wisdom may arrive. Essentially, the perfect relationship between higher and lower states allows an individual to exist simultaneously on multiple planes—identifying as both self and non-self without preference.
JD’s Dream #519
JD Stahl (05/19/2020) Rose up through teams and factions, On the banks of black and blue. An air of tomorrow and dreams of morning. Red and brown through trees of gloom. Lay me down in beds of white. In a room so soft—white—sprung a night. Where fantasies take on a memory, And the love is free to play again. Welcome back to Foreverland. It’s been so long that I’ve tasted truth. Trapped by fear under a transparent roof. The actions seem to switch back every day. Demons lack the attack to bring dismay. Dilated time up above expands. And severs plans of an invisible man. Forward and backward, the time provides. Escaping windows on tomorrow’s riverside. Naked to the world, in the cloud we sit. Stare down on time, while in lines, I knit. Together the pieces of this land and mine. The mountains and valleys on fire, in time. The sirens shout between lakes of fire. Delivered by sunlight and society’s trials. Through the rain, we burn through hosts. And capitalize and carry the ghosts. Cross the line, a new land being built. Stop the world in order to see who’s killed. Cover your face and hide your tongues. The secrets must not be the only ones. Board the bands and angels on high. Today is the day when we thankfully rise. Brothers, sisters, and family too. Your mother’s an advocate of your inner truth. As we waste away the toxic assault. It’s more than sickness inside the dark vault. Come and go without a single sound. Below ground, they find a living female shrine. And as the wheel spins and earth whines. Backwards, we go, solidifying time. Catch the currents high above your light. And tire yourself before you dream at night. I’ll be waiting to take you in your stream. They’ll be waiting with the rest of the team. For at the end, everything you think you’ve lost. Becomes free, like you, which is the actual cost.
Watching Four Teen Knights Dose Deux Intoxicants Before Breakfast
“MASTERPIECE, WRITTEN BY OUR MASTERS, PIECED TOGETHER WORDS FROM DISTANT WORLDS. THE GREATNESS WITHIN, POURS OUT UNDER MY SKIN. OPEN OR CLOSED, MY EYES STILL SEE. WINGING BIRDS AND FAMILY TREES, PRAY TO GOD ON MY KNEES.” – “TAKE TWO” BY JD STAHL
It was primarily in the evening when I would experience the strongest sense of interconnectivity between my physical self and some vaguely-specific spiritual “twin” or non-self-concept. While I would be alone in my bedroom with the lights out, listening to music, I would relax into a state of consciousness that would completely elevate me out of the physical reality. In a sense, I was suspended in an identity which was both partial and separate to who I felt that I was during the daytime. In this suspended state, I had a partner that I would not be able to experience through any physical means.
The sense of bliss, euphoria, and elation that I would feel while in the presence of this higher-vibrational energy would completely eliminate any desire that I previously felt in terms of my physical experience. Basically, when I was in communion with my “twin,” I didn't care about sex, physical contact, sight, sound, or any other physical sensation that I previously believed to be necessary to engage in a relationship with a partner.
In the plane where I was able to join with this spiritual counterpart, nothing “other” even existed. Essentially, it was like a completely private world where any person, place, or thing which was either partial or separate from the union was a personal “child” of our union. In this state, I could close my eyes and all I would see would be light, filling the spaces that were both physical and non-physical. Though with my eyes closed, I could sense my physical environment as a collection of vague lines that outlined transparent walls or boundaries. What stood out more than anything was the “presence” of something which stood beyond, behind the vibration of anything which could be claimed in the physical world.
“LORDS OF THE TWO HORIZONS, WATCHERS OF THE TREBLE GATES, STAND YE ONE AT THE RIGHT AND ONE AT THE LEFT AS THE STAR RISES TO HIS THRONE AND RULES OVER HIS SIGN. AYE, THOU DARK PRINCE OF ARULU, OPEN THE GATES OF THE DIM, HIDDEN LAND AND RELEASE HER WHOM YE KEEP IMPRISONED.” – THOTH/HERMES TRISMEGISTUS
There were moments where I felt the presence of a feminine counterpart. However, I could only detect the location of this being with my eyes closed. While I gazed outwards in any direction around my bed, I could see the shape of a female being, shining brightly like a star in the night. Even if I averted my eyes to test whether or not I was merely making this up myself, my arm would immediately be called to point in the direction of the location where she/it was from moment to moment. It was as if this partner and I were magnetically tied to each other—unable to be separated by anything in either world.
Illuminated by a white light, I followed her as she appeared to run by the front of my house. From my bedroom with my eyes closed, I watched as she ran around the corner, attempting to test my ability to detect her presence. Being so closely linked, I was also able to “hear” or come into a knowing of a conversation that she was having with others who were present. These other beings were either representatives of a higher dimension of energy or they were the “cross-watchers” which stood as guard between worlds, assuring that the energetic integrity of the gateway was preserved, preventing those who would attempt to cross over through unnatural means from accessing higher planes of wisdom and metaphysical ability.
“SEVEN TIMES AND SEVEN TIMES HAVE I PASSED THROUGH THE FIRE. FOOD HAVE I NOT EATEN. WATER HAVE I NOT DRUNK. I CALL THEE FROM ARULU, FROM THE REALMS OF EKERSHEGAL. I SUMMON THEE, LADY OF LIGHT. THEN BEFORE ME ROSE THE DARK FIGURES; AYE, THE FIGURES OF THE LORDS OF ARULU. PARTED THEY BEFORE ME AND FORTH CAME THE LADY OF LIGHT. FREE WAS SHE NOW FROM THE LORDS OF THE NIGHT, FREE TO LIVE IN THE LIGHT OF THE EARTH SUN, FREE TO LIVE AS A CHILD OF THE LIGHT. ” – THOTH/HERMES TRISMEGISTUS
The closer that her light approached me, the stronger that I felt my body and mind be taken over by my higher self. It was as if the percentage of ego would diminish significantly with every step closer that she came towards me. Unfortunately, even though she was coaxed by other observers to “come over,” she did not. At first, I was both confused and heartbroken by the hesitation by what felt like the perfect counterpart in a higher dimension. At the same time, however, I had a sense of absolute faith in the order of things. In knew in that moment that what was occurring was surely for the best reasons.
At the time, there was still a significant amount of information which I would still have to learn. Internally, I was able to reconcile this with my emotions, instilling a sense of peace and faith that allowed me to relax. While I relaxed, I continued to experiment with my extrasensory abilities. Even though I could no longer detect the immediate presence of this other being in my environment, I was still able to activate my senses to locate her presence. At random times, I would think about where she was located, hold out my arm with my finger extended, and then watch as a magnetic force would overtake me and immediately point my arm in a certain direction—like an arrow on a compass.
Even though the reunion did not occur at the time, I felt a sense of peace knowing that a connection that was this strong would never be possible to avoid—even if I had tried to do so. In essence, if there is something which is destined to occur, there isn't anything we can do or not do which will create even the possibility for separation. On a physical level, we are overtaken by our subconscious when there is suppressed energy which requires expression. Even if we believe we are willing against it, we are trapped in the illusion that we have control. That which is divine is not a “thing” which we are even capable of avoiding or “messing up.”
Therefore, if we even have any doubts—or if we encounter something which is capable of being destroyed—we should immediately release it as part of our journey. It is only that which cannot be destroyed or separated from ourselves which is truly meant for us. Anything that causes strife, stress, fear, or desire is merely a lesson that will help to deliver us to a higher state of personal alignment. Even the people we love and respect the most, in the end will often appear as nothing more than a human “nudge” in a direction that we would have previously not taken.
“YES, MY GUARD STOOD HARD WHEN ABSTRACT THREATS, TOO NOBLE TO NEGLECT, DECEIVED ME INTO THINKING I HAD SOMETHING TO PROTECT.” – “MY BACK PAGES” BY JD STAHL
These “muses” or “abstract” personifications of energy are collections of energy that we have accrued throughout numerous lives and incarnations; they are perfect mixtures of the things that we crave in balance with the things we fear. By the time we reconcile the opposites as our reflection in these muses, they become obsolete, exiting out of our lives as soon as we can find peace in their sacrifice towards our unification between body and spirit. This, above all, is our highest destiny—to graduate from the physical 3rd dimension as a complete self, no longer even having a desire or longing for another physical being as more than a friend or confidant in the journey towards realization and divination.
At any point, however, we are able to take a partner. There is no penalty whatsoever involved with following our heart's requirement to express itself however it wishes to do so. Every single person's life is unique. Therefore, part of our dharmic purpose is to create or manifest—like a magician—the purest expression of our heart's divine will. Our journey towards perfection is not the attainment of any physical materialism or accomplishment, but a continual process of purification as we merge our metaphysical consciousness with divine will. Our goal is to attain the highest level of discernment, eliminating the distance that separates our identity with the omniscient and omnipresent “God” that we often identify as the “Father” or Source of all things in existence.
In this and every other incarnation, we are led—from the future—into a “dance” that attempts to guide us into transcendental balance. This balance not only occurs between our body and spirit (masculine and feminine, respectively), but also attempts to link us to all other lives that our soul has experienced in other incarnations—indiscriminate of time, space, or density. More than that, every possible version of our lives is accessible through the infinite present moment. It is our conscious free will that eventually determines upon which plane of reality we will exist. Our capacity for discernment will always lead us—consciously or subconsciously—to the plane upon which we will be able to process the largest amount of residual energy (karma). It is not our immediate environment which determines our present state of consciousness, but how we identify with the balance between our self and non-self from moment to moment.
Forever
JD Stahl (09/24/2018) Seven shots to the body And now I’m seeing stars. Thanks for all the clever memories. Now I can see all my shadows, In the mirror ball reflection, On the floor of my attic. Only one knot was ever tied. And now you’re saying I meant To tie the other. But that knot is for you, Is it not? Thank you, For the new definition of forever. It seems like only a decade Since I’ve felt you near me. Or has it only been ten years? The words seem to have two meanings. Like one of my favorites: illusion. Or was it like with your friends, collusion? I wasn’t the only one to hide. I saw inside. Now with all of this ego, I’ve wasted my time. Please excuse the sneer behind Some of these sharp words. I’m just disgusted by myself, Lacking self-control. I’ve crossed so many of these lines; Broken all of the rules. Now I’ve been sent here, by myself, To see if I could find the same In you. That forever heart. Where have you gone, Eternal rose? I thought the game was over— The hide and seek game, behind walls. I expected you to come over. But every time I came through, You stalled, and my heart broke. Just like the glass, Where your cubes used to melt. Or am I confused? By the line of sight, In that night? Now I romance the information, Waiting for you. Like you did, Waiting for me. All of the beauty outweighed my dreams I never expected to beat it. I never expected anything Nothing but the truth, Broken the rules for me and you. Trying to break free Of the fishbowl company, And the lines that dangle from the ceiling. Divine timing, you said? I’m no muse. Not like you, luv. Not like you.
Twin River Avatars Winning Me in a 6-Foot Vertical in a Bubble Bath Slam Dance Contest
“THE CYCLE BELOW IS NOT TRULY BELOW BUT ONLY DIFFERENT IN SPACE AND IN TIME. THE CONSCIOUSNESS THERE IS WORKING AND TESTING LESSER THINGS THAN THOSE YE ARE. AND KNOW, JUST AS YE ARE WORKING ON GREATER, SO ABOVE YE ARE THOSE WHO ARE ALSO WORKING AS YE ARE ON YET OTHER LAWS.” – THOTH/HERMES TRISMEGISTUS
Our locus of consciousness will shift from plane to plane until we are able to process out any/all fears related to our materialistic attachments, labels, ambitions, or desires. The physical 3rd dimension is primarily only a plane/density which exists to provide linearity in time and space. It is only in this matrix where we are able to measure progress, through which we can develop clarity and eliminate friction from our self-concept—the relationship that discerns the difference between creator and creation. From the most extreme perspective on relationships, twin flames, and soul mates, our physical relationships are really only present to help us identify parts of our spirit-soul which we have yet to recognize, develop, accept, or clarify. In order to purify these areas of our darkened spirit-soul, we are “baptized” through the Delta wavelengths into a linear time construct. Our “dance” in the “river of life” is merely an opportunity to have a “dream within a dream.” Our spirit-soul has descended into the matrix of time and space in order to worth through and test different aspects of Natural Law.
We will exist in the physical 3rd dimension until we are able to fully develop the aspects of our self and non-self which have the possibility for dense vibrations of doubt, fear, desire, or confusion. These relationships will manifest in our external world until we are able to recognize any “other” person can only ever be a mirror to a part of ourselves we have yet to consciously embody as part of our whole metaphysical being. Though we entertain these relationships as separate beings, on a higher plane, all things are connected. Alternative forms will manifest until we reach the state of awareness where they are no longer necessary—at the point where we no longer react to them in a way which causes us to fall out of our composure.
If there is still a possibility for us to be confused, surprised, or otherwise feel that something can be accidental, coincidental, or by any means outside that which we previously believed to be possible, then we must sit with that realization until we are able to process it with acceptance. In order to go beyond external relationships and go beyond the wheel of birth and death, we will eventually reach the point where we no longer see others as separate from ourselves. Essentially, in order to reach the “father” of creation, we must view everyone as our child—regardless of our physical gender or sexual preference/identity. Within us holds the characteristics of every other being as a portion of our own whole “Holy” spirit, both divine masculine and divine feminine.
“AT THIS MOMENT THE AVATAR APPEARS. BEING THE TOTAL MANIFESTATION OF GOD IN HUMAN FORM, HE IS LIKE A GAUGE AGAINST WHICH MAN CAN MEASURE WHAT HE IS AND WHAT HE MAY BECOME. HE TRUES THE STANDARD OF HUMAN VALUES BY INTERPRETING THEM IN TERMS OF DIVINELY HUMAN LIFE. HE IS INTERESTED IN EVERYTHING, BUT NOT CONCERNED WITH ANYTHING. THE SLIGHTEST MISHAP MAY COMMAND HIS SYMPATHY; THE GREATEST TRAGEDY WILL NOT UPSET HIM. HE IS BEYOND THE ALTERNATIONS BETWEEN PAIN AND PLEASURE, DESIRES AND SATISFACTION, REST AND STRUGGLE, LIFE AND DEATH. TO HIM THEY ARE EQUALLY ILLUSIONS WHICH HE HAS TRANSCENDED, BUT BY WHICH OTHERS ARE BOUND AND FROM WHICH HE HAS COME TO FREE THEM. HE USES EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE AS A MEANS TO LEAD OTHERS TOWARDS REALIZATION. HE KNOWS THAT MEN DO NOT CEASE TO EXIST WHEN THEY DIE, AND THEREFORE HE IS NOT CONCERNED OVER DEATH. HE KNOWS THAT DESTRUCTION MUST PROCEED CONSTRUCTION AND THAT OUT OF SUFFERING IS BORN PEACE AND BLISS, THAT OUT OF STRUGGLE COMES LIBERATION FROM THE BONDS OF ACTION. HE IS ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT CONCERN. IN THOSE WHO CONTACT HIM, HE AWAKENS A LOVE THAT CONSUMES ALL SELFISH DESIRES IN THE FLAME OF THE ONE DESIRE TO SERVE HIM. THOSE WHO CONSECRATE THEIR LIVES TO HIM GRADUALLY BECOME IDENTIFIED WITH HIM IN CONSCIOUSNESS. LITTLE BY LITTLE, THEIR HUMANITY IS ABSORBED INTO HIS DIVINITY, AND THEY BECOME FREE.” – MEHER BABA
In order to get to the level of both divine masculine and divine feminine (the “Father” of creation), every other physical being must be recognized as one of our offspring—even our parents, sexual partners, animals, etc. Though it is not impossible to have an intimate relationship with another person through this process, it can be very difficult to balance being both a parent that is also a sexual partner. In order to go beyond that, you would have to completely let go of the requirement for that other “self” to embody a physical being altogether. Unfortunately, as one attains this state of conscious awareness, any “other” physical being can only ever be a costume for the energy which we identify as creation and creator—the aspects of our trinity which complement the Witness. In a sense, we have to allow ourselves to have multiple personalities—both horizontally (in each plane) and vertically (through multiple planes and dimensions).
Once harmony is reached in the trinity, being alone becomes just as good—if not better—than having a physical partner. At the same time, one never truly feels “alone,” but in the presence of any/all energies that coincide at their will. This is the state of indifference that becomes the product of fully accepting the paradox in all ritualistic qualities. This indifference gives way to transcend any/all planes at will, and frees us from the obligation of using our life-force energy (qi, chi, or Prana) to put up boundaries of discernment between our physical identity and any other separate identity. By eliminating the karmic energy necessary for a separate physical version of yourself to manifest in the 3rd dimension, you instead ingest all of that energy and can then use it to create greater manifestations in the physical world.
“I'M A CHANGELING. SEE ME CHANGE. I'M A CHANGELING. SEE ME CHANGE. I'M THE AIR YOU BREATHE. FOOD YOU EAT. FRIENDS YOU GREET IN THE SULLEN STREET. SEE ME CHANGE. SEE ME CHANGE. I LIVE UPTOWN. I LIVE DOWNTOWN. I LIVE ALL AROUND.” – “THE CHANGELING” BY THE DOORS
If our energy is split in any way that creates attachment or dependency, our abilities as prophets, magicians, sages, gurus, teachers, etc. will be limited. It is possible to have partners and families; however, you would have to be somewhat indifferent to them being alive or dead. Children, partners, family, friends, and all others will be seen in both sides of energy equally—both form and formless. All death, disease, or expression of energy in any direction would therefore be joyful, simply because it is a necessary product of life that creates the possibility for conscious expansion. If we are at all limited by our emotional responses—in life or death—we will only continue to perpetuate separation, fragmentation, sin, suffering, friction, or drama in the external world. Karma is only created when there is difficulty in being able to accept all aspects of duality from the same equanimity.
Essentially, every person we identify as “other” than ourselves becomes our guru. Our guru/muse is our children, family, twin flame or soul mate. Our guru, teacher, savior, guide, or angel is the very energy of spirit that we have yet to recognize as a necessary reflection of our true nature. Through acceptance, forgiveness, and consecration, we are able to reconcile all aspects of ourselves from within so that we can reveal the purest reflection of our self and non-self-concept in truth, parented equally by our divine masculine and feminine qualities—internally and externally, throughout every incarnation we have made manifest. Once we are willing to release the requirement for the physical world to be necessary for our spiritual development, we ascend beyond it, returning to the metaphysical substance which is inherent in all things.
Our guru is but a reflection of the internal darkness that we have yet to bring to the light of our awareness. It is the moment when we are able to see ourselves as the ego that reflects back upon us from others that we are freed from our mortality and embody eternal life. Any “death” is merely a return of our spirit back into the qualities in which we have been able to reconcile as ourselves within the paradox. Therefore, birth and death are the true “twin” parents of the illusion itself; both of which are sacrificed in the process of ascension—the transcendence of body and spirit. Without the distance that separates both life and death, all is immortal, infinite, and forever; everything is love, unconditional.
Perpetual Muse
JD Stahl (06/16/2020) The perpetual muse laughs at foreplay. For what’s been seen, will soon be today. No longer misled in basements of chains, Light streams through the droplets of rain. And on a colorful stairway, I hear the call. Unchained from doubt and no longer to stall. But new names are given as you rise to thee. From your knees, let there be no more tyranny. And out of caves you climb to match reach, When the healers heal and teachers teach. But perfection of service, of love and of peace. From one mouth, the word, we all soon will preach. From within a conspicuous and challenging twin, A journey, amazingly outward, yet more within. Have you seen the serenity and unfailing power That faith has claimed during your darkest hour? A place, house, and temple, after the door. In dreams, we play with the joyful and soar. And now to join those unbathed beneath. To offer our suffering up in exchange for their grief. I shall empty this cup as you clean up your own. And the one standing behind us will take our throne, That sits above all of our memories and doubts. For every initial moment comes from us, without. Moment to moment, release you from your sin. Your confusion is part of the journey within. Hold not to the spikes you feel you deserve. It is just a test to all who will serve. For behind the eyes of all who know defeat, Have had to collect all things for their feast. For balance of light and dark will provide The greatest presence which seeks you, inside.
