“Some spirits only get halfway alive,
and inherently feel cheated.
“Think about molecules–cute wittle molecules.
Ok, sometimes they are compound molecules–two
molecules that can stand on their own get together. Now,
let’s go back on the spirit’s journey of
complexity. Nova presents The Amazing Journey
of the Spirit’s Complexity, underwritten by Enron... no no no no.
“So, at a previous level of complexity, A B C D get
together and say ‘Wow, we are together, so that must
mean we are ready to move on. We’re complex, na
na na na na.’ And so they move on, but the
complexity that would best fulfill their potential is A B
C D E F G H I. So off go A B C D as if complete, and that
means their entity is only half fulfilled. And at the
more complex level, oy do they know it. They
feel like they are being cheated and taken and abused.
But they don’t even have the first-timer sense that
it’s all about them, so they think it’s about a
group or a class which appears to include them, because
they sense they are not complete, and interpret that as
being done to them rather than being about them alone.
And they choose a group identity rather fiercely because,
in fact, A B C D doesn’t give them any clue to A B C
D E F G H I.
“So they are half-timers. And they go back and, when
it is possible, they arrive as A B C D E F G H I, but as
the worst of first-timers. The half-time experience makes
them feel that when really whole it must be all about
them with a vengeance.
“Ponder.” (11/16/2008 - V#142)
“Existence is a work in progress. It ain’t over
until the fat god sings. Now, by fat I don’t mean
corpulent, I mean whole and fulfilled.
“Why do you think the Buddha is portrayed as fat and happy–the Divine as sated.
In the fullness of time--which is the eternal Now of
possibility--the whole is both desiccated and full at the
same time. And which is your reality is your perception.
“It’s all close at hand.” (11/29/2008 -

“Don’t ever confuse either intelligence or
passion for spirit! Just knowing something or feeling
something doesn’t make one spiritual. Just being

“There is no path to spirit, but there are many
paths to awareness. And some of them are maintained
poorly, but beware any spiritual toll roads... and beware
the frumious Bandersnatch. Yum, bandersnatch sundae
with whipped feens and one butter brickle. But not on
mint chocolate chip... no no no no... grrrrrrr.
An entity sure to be done in.
“Don’t perceive disassembly as violent. If the
entity components won’t hold, they will come
apart--just like leaving a dish of bandersnatch sauce and
mint chocolate chip out to dissipate. Don’t have to
blow it up. Just leave it alone, without any injection of
energy, and it comes apart.
“Take away any energy not intrinsic to the entity,
and it disassembles on its own. Otherwise the universe
would be infusing energy into failed systems, and we all
know where that would lead... grrrr...
right, Sandy, no Sandy!
“They come into being, and then suck energy.
Sometimes they get it in spirit, but not
naturally–just like sperm and egg come together and,
even if not capable of going full term, the fetus can
coopt the energy of the womb. But at some point, the womb
cannot or won’t give the energy, and the growth
stops and the entity begins to come apart. And then, if
we are talking spirit, it’s a whole
‘nother ball of non-wax. But I wax on... wax off.
Ponder.” (1/26/2009 - V#145)
“Love is the emotional experience of connection. It
is the other side of the spiritual mirror; all emotions
are. They are reflections seen through a glass darkly. So when one experiences
strong emotions, they are mirroring some spiritual
sense--or more likely, a spirit who embodies that
spiritual sense. Fear is a mirroring of a spirit which
cannot hold its complexity together and knows it. Love is
a mirroring of a spirit ready for union into greater
complexity. But when a spirit in the physical world
mirrors the spiritual reality but they themselves are not
yet spiritually fulfilled and ready for take-off into
greater complexity, love is felt. It is mirrored, but it
will not be or seem perfect.
“Love in the physical realm is always the mirrored
but imperfect expression of the real connections possible
in spirit development. And, too often in the physical, it
is glimpsed as a way to fulfill or fill what is
incomplete. We expect others to make us whole, but the
love we mirror is an expression of whole-ness in itself.
“I love CT... ahh, ooo, ou...
because I am fulfilled, not because he fulfills me. Ok,
that’s a statement of the future because Is still
gots a ways to go. Yes, mastah, Is just be gettin’
the hang of it all.
“Remember, in spirit, when we move to greater
complexity in a sustained form, we are
whole and become enhanced with the other spirits, and not
that we become whole with the other
spirits. We interpret it that way because, o little
brains, because you and I and him and them all have so
little faith and confidence in our own fulfillment, we
even invent gods and saviors instead. So I pose one for
you: If we are not capable of fulfillment in ourselves,
and we are parts of all Creation, then how can we assume
there is any other part which is capable. But if no part
is capable, then the whole is not, and if the whole is
not... ‘then where could we go for dinner at
midnight? Landmark!’ But... CT, shut
up... if all parts are not capable of fulfillment, then
the whole collapses into impossibility. And yet,
here’s a pair of ducks... quack quack, grrrr...
we are, as parts, capable of fulfillment, but we are
totally dependent on the other for our ultimate
being as One.
“Fulfillment is our gift and greatest possibility,
and our dependence on the fulfillment of all else is also
our destiny. We are dependent for our ultimate
fulfillment, but capable of our immediate fulfillment.
And at the same time, ultimate fulfillment is dependent
on our immediate fulfillment. The whole can’t be
whole until the parts are whole, and the parts can’t
be whole unless the whole can be whole. Put that in your
pipe and ponder it!” (2/14/2009 - V#146)
“Our emotions mirror the state of spirit of those
entities with which we can combine... later. We sense and
mirror things like connection, luv, fear,
unsustainability, doubt, fragile entities, etc.. We
mirror the state of the components of what is possible.
And since those components are organically evolving as
mirrors of our spirits, too, slowly they merge in unity
and transcend emotions into spiritual embodiment.
“Our emotions reflect the status of development of
the unity of our more complex entity. When fulfilled and
combined, emotions fall away and being is
all–which is also infinite possibility. Ponder that!
“You mirror the state of your becoming... ARF. He
mirrors a dog... arf arf. It’s sort of
freaky.
“So, it can be said that the process of Spiritual
Persistence is the spiritual act of complexity to embody,
as it were, the spiritual possibilities which transcend
individuation, and hence also emotions. Unity is not a
state of emotions, but a state of spiritual being.
That’s enough.” (2/18/2009 - V#147)
“Every spirit arrives at a level of complexity
thinking or sensing itself as complete and
fulfilled–a lingering aspect of the fulfillment of
the preceding level. ‘O, I got it!’ But then it
dawns on the spirit, ‘I ain’t got it,’ and
a sense of failure and incompleteness comes.
‘I’m not,’ and ‘I don’t know
how’ or ‘Why?’ Then comes the eclectic
stage, wherein the spirit chases after what appears to be
fulfilling for others. And then a stage of trying to
sense the incompleteness of oneself, and the focus is on
what’s missing, not what will fulfill. And then the
stage of focusing on fulfillment. And lastly, a stage of
focusing on wholeness–such that the apparent gaps
reveal their own fulfillment. Spirits at the last stage
don’t have to travel, either literally or
figuratively, because they sense the pieces yet to be
integrated are already within. And that’s good
enough for now.
“First-timers come with that sense of being
fulfilled, and 2 and 3 are slow dissipations of that
notion. There’s a song title: Dissipations of Those
Notions, which could also describe shoplifting of
buttons.
“So, if it wasn’t in your own backyard..." (2/24/2009 -
V#148)
“All these levels of complexity, they’re not
levels. Organic entities don’t have levels. For
example, a 4-year-old and a 40-year-old are both alive;
they are in the life level. But, being organic,
they are not really in a level. So, complexity is not
about levels, but states of awareness... ‘not
provinces, not commonwealths, but states’... CT, get
a grip!
“Complexity only refers to the apparent
ability to move into relationship with a greater portion
of All That Is. And if you think levels, then I gotta
tell you that there are spiritual combinations which
relate to just as much and just as little as you do, and
they aren’t even close to being human, much less
carbon-based. There are wave forms that have the
relational equivalency of human beings. In other words,
they are as complex as you and me and him... but not him.
‘O.’
“If the whole can be created in an infinite number
of ways, i.e., not linear, then there are infinite forms
of existence as complex as you and me and him...
‘and me?’ No. ‘O.’
“And here’s the clincher: Some portion of you
and some portion of any other complexity of equal
standing can make another equally complex thingie. And
so, at any given state... ‘but not province’...
shut up, CT... except for ultimate isolated
differentiation, we all participate in an infinite number
of complexities. Forget parallel universes. Those are
just settings. I am talking about beings, not settings,
and beings in the spiritual, not organic, sense. We are
an array of complexity, not just a statement
of complexity. And any one expression is just as valid
and real and complex as any other. Tell that to the
Treflingos of Deponana. They are dogmatic about singular
complexity! Won’t they get a jolt. And they are so boron-based--wavy little boron
devils. Enough for now. But no, here’s more:
“Every apparent discrete physical state...
‘not...’... shut up... is just one expression
of a larger array of meaning. And the advances of physics
are nothing more than perception of more of the array,
which, since the array is infinite, means we will never
solve the world and its secret codes. Physically. Even
the theories of physics aren’t linear in their
perception. Now I’m done. ‘Not even close.' For now. ‘Ok. What
about me?’ It’s all about you. ‘O, ok.
Thanks.'” (3/30/2009 - V#149)
“I am
greeted with death and all its possibilities,
while most over there get only life with its
seeming limitations. Think globally, act
universally.” (5/13/2010 - V#150)
“This is the scoop and poop. The meaning of
physicality is the manifestation of the values of our
spirits. We go to bodies to make physical what we espouse
in spirit. And if we don’t live out our values in
life, well duh, you don’t have those values
in death, and therefore not in spirit.
“Quickest route to disassembly is to live physically
in contradiction to one’s spiritual understandings.
If you can’t get your life together, then why should
your spiritual entity stay together?
“Life is a test of the stability and meaning of your
spiritual entity. It’s like taking a recipe and
mixing the ingredients and putting it into the oven. If
it comes out as a good dish, then you keep the recipe.
But if it doesn’t work out in practice, bye-bye
recipe--not goodbye ingredients, just goodbye
that combination and process.
“Here we are mindful of the evolutionary
and creative recipes of spirit that we can become, and there
we try those recipes out. And if someone tries to be all
spiritual and shit but does not put anything to the test,
then their cookbook–no matter how well
illustrated–is chucked out. ‘We have had to do
this with many who call for too much allspice.’ CT.
‘They fear it, and those who use it hate it.’
CT, go! ‘It’s the universal spice. Don’t
need any others.’ Oy.
“So, that’s what I have to say. If you
don’t engage the world while you are physical, you
won’t engage here when you are spiritual.”

“The
Genesis is not an act of creation but a shared awareness.
“Ok, here goes: All That Is already knows all
potential--from the ultimate unity to the greatest
separation and isolation and lack of connection. To look
to the culmination is to learn nothing, but at the other
end of the process, to see beyond oneself... wait,
he’s a fat elf, I can’t see beyond him... so,
to glimpse possibility where there seemed none is the
start and continual continuation.
“It is in the growing and knowing beyond what is
already known that existence is fulfilled. A Great Lake
is more informed by the first droplets of water behind
the dam than by the full basin of time. So go for the
essence.
“The fulfillment is not the learning. Pith
shit.” (8/12/2010 - V#152)
“Here’s
a Point to Ponder: Is the act of connection changed by
the awareness of it by others.
“You better say ‘Yes, or else something is lost
to the universe.’ The awareness becomes part of
existence, and every part of existence is changed by the
whole. So, the act of connection is changed by the
external awareness of it.
“The Primal Exemplar Connection then smiled, and all
else is existence plus it.

“
‘Amalgamated Spirits are up 3 points in active
trading’.... no no no no no, but thanks, CT.
Let’s explore a new option, in which two or
more--but generally two--spirits operate together in one
physical expression. Huh. You sometimes call that
schizophrenia. And you would be right and wrong.
“When those different spirits work without real
knowledge of each other, or in a dependent way that is a
matter of existential security, then that’s the
right term. But when the several spirits work in sympathy
and harmony with each other to get more done then either
would have done alone, it’s not the right
description to call them schizo.
“An analogy: The Hatfields and the
McCoys
formed a destructive but defining unit. On the other
hand, marriage at its best brings two families into a new
relational unit that enhances. So, with constructive
amalgamated spirits... ‘a wholly owned sub....’
CT, don’t go there... we have two spiritual entities
which come together--not forming greater complexity, but
rather greater coverage.
“They work as if a single unit, but on the simple
plane of complexity of each of them. I will give you an
example: Rosey Grier, football great and
knitter. Many of the great spirits are actually great spirits.
And the more complex move on, but the compound ones are
still here, and their compound nature hints at greater
complexity. They stay together one life or more, but
there is no rule. Some find it great, and some can’t
take it anymore until they learn and remember more by
themselves, because this takes spirits with great sense
of self.
“The most complex people you would meet are usually
amalgamated... ‘Clothing Workers’... CT...
spirits. And they appear somewhat mysterious because
people say ‘I get some of what they are, but some of
them is an enigma.’ Lincoln. Gandhi... Gandhis.
“Just a new small subset of spiritual embodiments.
But they are a glimpse into what is possible.
“And in late news, consolidated spirits lost ground.
For two or more spirits to attempt consolidation without
a change of complexity is what is schizo.
Amalgamated and consolidated ain’t the same. And
enough for now.
“See, spirit connection is a matrix, not a
progression. O the stories I could tell... and will. And
about seemingly unique nexus in the matrix.... “
(8/26/2010 - V#154)
“Ok,
what’s the point of amalgamated spirits if the parts
don’t remember the whole.
“Ever heard of catalysts... grrrr. Ok,
dogalysts... f f f f. The amalgamated spirits
assist each other in learning and remembering, but
don’t need to get the same 'l and r'. So the combo
is powerful because it empowers the
components, not because it combines them. They do not
become 1, they become 1 plus 1--which
is not only more than 1, it’s more than 2.
‘About 2.185.’ CT. ‘86? 87? How about
0.’ He knows what I mean because he and I are more
than 2.
“Ok, you say, but aren’t more complex entities
more than the sum of their parts? Yes and no. They would
seem, by our reckoning, to be so. But in their own
perspective, they are not yet. They are just 1.
We think that 8 entities combining into complexity would
produce 8 plus, but it only makes 1.
The scale slides with the complexity. Don’t measure
former simplicity against complexity. That’s a
fruitless task... flowerful but fruitless.
“I think I have given you much to ponder.”
(8/31/2010 - V#155)
“A compound
spirit is an amalgamated spirit with a
twist--two integrated spirits, as opposed to simply
co-existent. Not into greater complexity, but into
greater capacity; can deal with more, but on the usual
planes.
“A compound spirit is not creating a
pseudo-complexity, but has a depth factor not usually
seen. It’s like the difference between a one-gig dual core machine and a one-gig one
core with another one-gig one core. One can do more
complex things, but the other can do more things.
“It’s like reaching the end of your rope and
finding you have another coil. When the forces of
darkness push a compound spirit to what should be its
limits, they find it’s right in the middle of its
resources. A compound spirit never really says anything
radical, which would be more complex, but never says
anything desperate or without thought. But that style is
bewildering, yet it is reminiscent of FDR, which is what
you need to weather the storm. He worked from core values
tirelessly. ‘That’s why his car ran so
rough.’ Go! Oy.” (9/16/2010 - V#156)
“Are
amalgamated or compound spirits part of the same
entity-to-be? No. Each are using the same life for
different lessons, and so they might end up together
next, but the odds are slim. Of course, they’ll end
up together eventually, and the common memories will
produce an extra spark of awareness.
“Spirits with more than one thread of memory but
linked in development, are the people who have heightened
spiritual awareness. Amalgamated spirits have heightened
spiritual expression. So, some pieces of each of you must
have had compound or amalgamated relationships at some
developmental point. Just another tidbit from the
infinite wisdom of existence.” (10/1/2010 - V#157)
Question from a Facebook friend: In the beginning it
was all naught and then it was capable to perceive. What
made the capability?
“Experience. The naught it was all
naught... ‘and some were even naughty.’ CT! F
f f f. And the naughts in their
separateness experienced random interactions--like
people, thinking they’re in a dark room alone,
randomly bumping into others they didn’t know
existed. And the experience makes them aware of other
existence and the potential for not only contact but
connection, and the whole shebang rises from there.
“The seeming nothingness of aloneness or solitary
energy existence, becoming knowing of more
through experience. And the rest would be trivial to
show, and the source of every religion. Am I saying
religion is trivial. In a way, yes, because it
trivializes the greatest part of existence by robbing it
of its meaning and putting that meaning into God. Back in
the dark room, it would be like two alone people bumping
into each other randomly and finding connection, only to
be told that they hadn’t created the connection, it
was the work of some force outside the room. Yeah, right,
sure. Another wee tad.” (11/4/2010 - V#158)
“I want to confuse you with thoughts about hierarchy.
When states are considered subordinate, then you have
hierarchy. But when states are, in fact, states of
complexity of an ever-emergent unity, then there is no
hierarchy! Because the whole contains all parts
and all parts mirror the whole.
“The whole cannot exist, be, have reality,
function, without the parts. But the dominant can exist
without the subordinates. A general can be a general
without an army, but a leader needs followers. One is
hierarchical and the other is not; it is integrative.
“With a Creator, the Creator can exist without any
specific creation. It would be the Creator even if all
this did not exist–subordination of creation. Now,
on the other hand... grrrr... on the other
paw... ARF (he is very diligent)... what rises up from
the sum total of experience and awareness is integrative
because no part is subordinate; all pieces and
fulfillments depend on all others. See. Get it. Have it.
Share it. Know it. Show it. Live it. Flaunt it... f f
f f. Strut it. Enough pith.
“Nothing which could exist separate of a larger
context actually exists. It’s a concept of the
limited mind. It’s a neat resolution to the problem
of not knowing--which is actually not being aware.
Instead of admitting that we are in the infinite middle
of the infinite process, and therefore can’t know it
all, humans construct these little mind constructions as
if they were real. 'I think and therefore it is.' But it ain’t necessarily
so.
“Our capacity to think is confused with our capacity
to think accurately. Remember Yul in the Ten Commandments: ‘As it is written,
so shall it be.’ Sure. Right. We like our
absolutes.” (11/7/2010 - V#159)

Question from Glenda: Rikkity, do you think we can
access a parallel universe while in this life?
“We can experience parallel planes all the time
and not-time, but we usually discount all but one, and we
usually choose the one that’s easiest to understand.
But when we were kids, we lived easily among and across
several–more than one, a multitude, a plethora,
myriad. We didn’t know we were supposed to have
boundaries. But those teachers taught us! Grrr.
That’s right, obedience training... ARF.”

dark, and so young and helpless. Choosing the opportunity
implies intent, but not linearity. It could and does as
instantaneous, wham.

Question from Matt: Isn't the other side right here?
Isn't our time right now? Aren't we the ones who are
gone? To me it seems that we are dead and I'd rather know
why people are afraid to live. Are we not conversing with
the dead right now in a lively but flatlined
conversation? Or is it there and then? If heaven is warm,
loving and from within, then what the hell are we doing
outside?
“There is no here and there, no now
and then. It’s all together. But we perceive it
as separate elements because at this level we are still
dealing with differentiation... not to mention
differentials. 'I demand deferential treatment.'
You’ll get treatments, all right!

Question from Matt: Is there a key in the realization
of no locks?
“Nothing is really locked against you, except those
gates you think require a key you don’t have. In a
single pass through life, not everything will seem open
to you. But just remember, that at a less complex level
of spiritual existence you, in the fullness of
being that, entities found all the openings needed to get
to this level of complexity. And remember, you don’t
have to open all the doors and gates and windows because
then the goats would get out... but also, not all
of them are for you.
“I give a trite example. You are in a college dorm.
You need to be able to open the entry door, your room,
and the bathroom, but not your neighbor’s room. Thou
shalt not covet thy neighbor’s room nor his key.
“We keep dealing with spirits who thought they
should be treated better because they explored so much,
and we have to say 'Why did you explore so much of
another spirit’s territory and neglect your own.'
And the light goes on, and they say 'Whoa'.
“And don’t try to force a door. Good sign you
are not meant to go there. And give up the ego’s
notion that humans have a divine right to explore
anywhere they like. I can tell you, it’s not a
divine right, it’s a divine pain! And the best way
to miss the splendid show life has for one is to try to
sneak into another theater.” (1/31/2011 - V#165)
“Reassembly is like spiritual counseling,

nothing of the former is recognizable.

Are all of them true? No. Hmm. Sandra and Fred
are on the same plane of the words of the passage, and
maybe of the meaning, but maybe not. Fred may find a
different meaning than Sandra. Or it could be the same
one, but with different meaning to Fred than Sandra. Hmm.
Because Fred and Sandra, while sharing this link of meaning,
don’t share the same reservoir of other pieces of
the matrix. Now, in the fullness of being when Sandra and
Fred know no separation, then the meaning will be the
same for both. But as long as they are not part of the
ultimate entity of connection, then their meanings might
be different.
“And here’s the cliff-hanger: If All That Is
contains all that is and is also all that is beyond
containing all that is, is there ever a single meaning? Hmm.
How will Flash escape the ray of death? Will he survive? More
next time.
“Ponder that. And I will offer this hint: There
aren’t any ultimates. Just beyond the horizon of any
seemingly ultimate meaning, lies something more--like an
unseen flight at 37,000 feet.
“And a question to ponder: Is there any essential
difference between a physical plane of being and a meaning
plane of being? And if so, for whom and why.”
(8/3/2011 - V#168)
“All planes of being are real! Not just the physical
ones. And the challenge at this level of complexity is to
gradually transition from the physical to the meaning
planes. Look at all the truly great, see how their names are
fêted... no no no no... see how little the physical
meant to them. They were slowly evolving onto meaning
planes. They would rather follow an idea of connection
that took them somewhere, than to travel. Yoda just sat there, but he also journeyed. And I say
‘slowly’ and ‘gradually’ because a
sudden shock to the systems of understanding are often
retrograde–take you back to... country roads? I hope not.
“So, we discern the planes of meaning, and we more
identify with them until at last we suddenly realize how
unimportant the physical is. Those who are getting this
don’t fear death. And they don’t talk about
salvation. ‘And they don’t blame the
government.’ Hey, for once CT is right!
“So, not only follow the energy, but also follow the
meaning. If something asks you to differentiate the
meaning instead of including the meaning, don’t go
there. Look for the planes of meaning. And yes, the
planes of meaning that seem parallel have intersecting
planes of a higher order--which are not at a higher
frequency. Think bandwidth, not frequency.
“There’s something beyond meaning.
Meaning is only a step--building block to more--just as
the All That Is is more than the sum of all that is. And
yet there is more than All That Is. Really? Sure. Because
at any point of perception, All That Is is not all that
is. When one gets a glimpse or understanding of all that
is, one is then opened to more. When you see the whole
sky, you are opened to what is beyond the sky. Just
remember, in the movie Truman there was a door in the
seemingly infinite sky, and a whole world beyond that.
And once you get the whole picture, you know it’s
not the whole picture. And seeing something that appears
to vibrate faster, just means you become aware of a wider
spectrum. And it’s all comparative. Higher than
what? My vibrations are higher than yours, na na na
na na. But if mine are higher, then there must be
some still higher. It’s turtles all the way down... and
up and over. Roger?
“So don’t think the meaning strands, which
reveal meaning planes, are the end of the journey. It is
meaningful in a plane of being and across planes of
being. It could connect across points in a plane and seem
like meaning, but it must connect across all planes of
being to be really truly deeply meaning. All else is
supposition and assumption, which leads to some very bad
thoughts about meaning. Meaning is always trans-physical,
but at the same point, true in the physical. All that is
true in larger senses must always be true in smaller
senses. If it doesn’t make or have meaning in life
as we know it, it’s not meaning. Forget the
supernatural crap.
“It’s all here now, but restrictions of here
and now keep us from understanding it totally. But it is
not absent, alien, foreign, or any other word needing to
know i before e.” (8/6/2011 - V#169)
“I want to give you an example. So, you find
yourself doing something routine, but you think about
another time and place. Ever happen? And then you notice
that every time you do that simple routine thing, you
think about that other thing or place. You’ve just
entered the other plane. Those two things are connected
by a non-physical plane.
“Every time I eat Oysters Rockefeller, I think of
Elton John. Huh. And if there is no apparent link, there
always is, but it may not be physical or temporal.
‘I’d like to slap you up your temporal
lobe.’ What?!? ‘Sorry.’ Who are you.
‘I don’t know.’ Mhhh. Hmmm. Doog.
FRA FRA. Raedo. Yo... Whap... Oy. O dear. ARF
ARF. Good.
“So, we experience these intersecting planes all the
time. But we rarely want to be seated on intersecting
planes! Is this a nonstop flight? I hope not. They
aren’t serving food.
“So, I am letting the thought sink in. Assignment:
Keep aware of experienced planes of intersection. Sure.
As time and places go by, sense whatever other places and
time–real or imagined–are contained or
suggested therein.” (8/10/2011 - V#170)
“So, let’s take another look. We know that Fred
and Janet have been reading the same book as Sandra. And
we deduce a plane of meaning, although Janet and Sandra
will never meet... ‘despite Fred seducing
Janet.’ CT, get your mind out of the gutter. ‘O
is that where I put it.’
“But what if those three had been reading three
different books, but then had the same thought. Ah, super-plane.
Yep, a plane of meaning arising out of a complex of
initiating parts of other planes. Huh. Monotheism: See how it arose in very different
cultures with different historic texts and tales... grrr...
no, not tails. Woof. That’s a super-plane
of meaning that is not dependent on its source planes.
The shared book was in a common plane, but these are
meanings arising from divergent and diverse planes and
elements. ‘Yogurt is another.’ CT. ‘Well,
it is.’ Next you will say flatbread.
‘Flatbread.’ See. Ok, enough.
“So, keep thinking about planes of being
beyond the physical and spiritual. There are many that
the physical and spiritual can share. ‘I don’t
like sharing!’ Then go dance on the spirit plane.
But dance really fast, it’s at a higher frequency.
But a tidbit: 'Faster' means higher frequency, but longer
wavelength. Just know that nothing spiritual can be
really conveyed in physical terms. So, Swiss cheese is
not a metaphor for anything important. But not all
entities and experience link into other planes. Some just
stand alone.” (8/14/2011 - V#171)
“So, the interplanar conjunctions may appear to be
circumstantial, but that does not rule out causative.
Whereas, the experiential nuances of the loci of planar
conjunctions may appeal to a renewed sense of
transcendence above the particulars of any given plane or
set of planes, or even non-set of planes, QED, thus, what
more need be said. ‘Bravo.’ ‘Well
put.’ ARF!” (8/18/2011 - V#172)
“Keep pondering planes. And remember, they are never
really planes, but just look like it when one is
perceiving them.
“Ponder that... just as the flat ocean is never
flat, but seems so when on it.” (8/22/2011 - V#173)
“Ok, put on your smart caps. All this talk about
planes (and it might seem to imply a physicality about
the spiritual and what we often encounter here, which is
not a here but a being, yet y’all
keep calling it 'here'. We keep hearing, but we
don’t have ears and a sense of sound, but y’all
keep saying ‘hear’) is that folks--which are
not folks, but the spiritual expression of an
energy information entity--like to act as if metaphors
are reality. Here’s a new idea: Metaphor TV. Much
better than Reality TV.
“Ok, back to the script. So, these entities allow us
to understand that metaphors are being treated like
realities. And, of course, metaphors are
realities in a metaphorical sense. They are not
fantasies. Yet they are not physical, and hence not
bounded. So, when we talk about planes, we aren’t
talking about planes but rather that which can be
understood by reference to planes. Ain’t no planes
here, babes.
“So, anymoo, take everything I’ve said about
planes and remember it’s not about planes. In fact,
every element of understanding, allusion, metaphor, and
such is not a construct but an invitation to see the
whole of being through lenses appropriate to the level of
complexity. I mean, I can talk stimuli to an amoeba, and
it has some meaning, in that voice waves might cause a
seismic ripple in its protoplasm. But giving it a
microscope to see itself would be pointless... and
expensive, to boot. So, we talk about planes which
aren’t planes, as a way to increase understanding of
what is at the level of spiritual understanding possible,
but it is never about planes, but what that concept
reveals about the whole. And just as seismic
ripples are given up for eyes and ears, so too planes
will be given up for more inclusive concepts. And even
the most inclusive concept will only be a guide to the
meaning of the whole. So, a warning: Never
mistake the guides for the whole. It’s not
about the images of the pieces, but the shadow of the
whole revealed as if pieces. Ok,
pith done! Ponder.” (9/2/2011 - V#174)
“Just a note of pith: People keep speaking of here
as a place of eternal rest. What a crock. This is a place
of eternal work, but all one’s work results in
fulfillment. Wouldn’t want to rest and miss that!
“It’s not that life is tiring, but that the
sense of reward is too often lacking. Think about doing
acts of love and meaning, and sensing their fulfillment.
It would be like a teacher being told each day by all the
students, ‘Thanks’.” (9/12/2011 - V#175)
