Namaste,
THE GOLDEN OCEAN
The Golden Ocean, the Cosmos, the Divine Conscious Universe. To bathe in it is to surrender to the Higher Self. All spiritual paths lead to One.
Sadly we live in uncertain times with misunderstandings and divisions. We need not be divided for we are all one race in a transient physical existence yet within exists the eternal flame. Our physical experience is temporary so why waste time on that which we cannot trully possess? The problems of the world are a result of divisions, created by an elitist paradigm that propogates false values. Perpetual war in pursuit of resource control, multiple forms of media brainwashing the masses into false realities. Religions highjacked by people with personal agendas. Unfair distribution of wealth and resources. False paradigms that blind us to the truth. We must free ourselves, then perhaps we can evolve collectively towards a new paradigm. It is our true destiny.
There are more things common to all religious and spiritual belief systems than there are differences. Fundamentally, when you strip away the layers, all paths teach us the collective wisdom of the Ages. The Divine consciousness that we are inexorably connected to speaks to those enlightened enough to listen. Prophets, sages and great thinkers alike have connected with the Eternal Truth giving birth to religions and philosophies. At the very heart lies the same message.
In the beginning was the Word. The Word was God. The Universe came into being. Quantum physics is beginning to open up a whole new understanding of reality and rather than undermine the fundamental truth of ancient knowledge, it supports it. The Universe is conscious, a living matrix of energy. At an atomic level sub atomic particles pop in and out of existence. Light and sound behaves as both waves and particles simultaneously, we are surrounded by and swimming in this ocean of energy. Quantum theory to a large degree may be theoretical but physicists studying sub-atomic particles in controlled environments such as the Hadron Collider in Switzerland are making monumental discoveries as to the true nature of space and time. We are approaching knowledge that moves beyond faith alone towards measurable science.
Physicists are like the Alchemists of old, pursuing the Philosopher's Stone. Taoism and Quantum Theory entwines and brings us ever closer to the face of God. It is by this very principle that the Taoist adheres to. Chi (Qi) cultivation and manipulation; High Magick; prayer and Yogic practices all work by conscious connection with the Divine Spirit that is this matrix of energy. We can and do create our own reality. The key to unlocking our full potential lies in applying discipline and being focused on creating our reality from within.
Of course outlying forces hinder that development. The endless cycle of working for the capitalist consumerist system blinds, binds and distracts us from our divinity. So too in the majority of the world where poverty pervades, it is difficult to shape one's reality but therein lies the crux of the matter. The will of others shapes the reality that most of the world's population lives in. It then surely is the responsibility of those of us who are able to shape our reality, to set the template for a more just global society. We cannot free others until we are free ourselves and we cannot free ourselves until we free our minds.
We awaken in ourselves the Divine reality and push back the veil of illusion. Only then can mankind evolve consciously and attain its destiny.
IN THE LAND OF THE BLIND, THE ONE EYED MAN IS KING
The capitalist/consumerist system is unbalanced and trully archaic. Mankind is at a threshold of evolution. Technological advancements at an exponential rate leads us to a point where the only limits are those imposed by an elitist stratagem. We have at our disposal knowledge and tools to bring about a utopian age, a wonderfully enlightened age but the old paradigm holds us back. We need to abandon feudalist models of society and adopt more co-operative models where everyones basic needs are met and society works for mutual benefit. This would be a far more harmonious existence and one that is in balance with the Divine Plan. In place of usuary and exploitation of resources and people, we could have a society based on co-operation and move outwards to the stars.
The alternative is too terrifying to contemplate. We are destroying our environment instead of living in harmony with our homeworld. We are perpetually at war over resources and have weapons of such horrific power that we cannot sanely ever want used. The crossroads we are at is evolution or total extinction. Surely any rational mind can see that a conscious evolution is the only intelligent choice for us to make.
For those free enough to make a choice to become enlightened beings, the responsibility lies on our shoulders to awaken those who are under the spell of the illusory world.
God bless us all,
Love, light and blessings.
