Hi everyone, I've been taking a break from "waking up" just to pace myself and get centered on ordinary everyday activities like my gardening and working on my small block of land out of town. There's no pun intended when I say I believe for our mental and physical health we need to stay "grounded". Yes there's a lot going on and it's easy to get caught up in the storm of chaos. Some might say that's intentional , especially when you consider the spiritual warfare aspect to life. But I have always found that hard physical work building and maintaining the things you love are one of the most restorative and strengthening ways to come up smiling and go the distance. While I appreciate we all come from different backgrounds I can only express from my personal perspective. For example for me it's important to humble myself beforeThe Creator. What does that mean? It means don't try to take on to much. We are really weak flesh and blood life forms animated by the spirit of God. Now rather than get bogged down in a complex debate I just mean pace yourself. Or, we are only human. Now I never became a preacher or developed an ego, namely because I never had an audience. So I am only sharing my thoughts and what works for me. I think that for the newbies and even the veterans of the Truth there will be times where it feels overwhelming. And that's why I share these examples of what works for me. Honestly I'm feeling great. I think that our brain is much like a muscle, it get's conditioned and eventually grows to be limited in it's flexiblility. So when going through a major mental transformation such as actually recognizing the massive truth right infront of our eyes it takes time. It takes time to mentally readjust and retune your life to a sustainable state. Now again I speak for myself, but if there is a kernal of Truth in that then it's worth sharing.
It's funny to think what this transformation does to a person's life. Maybe an example would be if you became gluten intolerant or decided to retire from your job to change your life? But the point is suddenly things that seemed normal intrinsic to your existance are simply no longer valid. I have been a huge Science Fiction fan all my life. I've mentioned in my profile I know. But now everytime YouTube suggests a SF movie all I can do is shrug my shoulders and pass because I recognize it for what it is. Sigh. I'm not even trying to be zealous. It's just a fact. It is like taking the red pill from the Matrix. Perhaps it's an over used example, but it fits so perfectly. Once you see it you cannot unsee it. You can't go back. You've changed, you've awakened. I've mentioned before I've enjoyed the Divergent YouTube channel. Honestly he's a legend. Produces great content. At first it was too much. So I gave it a break, almost forgot about it. But finally came back again. Funny enough, the second time round it was a lot easier to process the information. There's often the question in the FE community about how to broach the subject with "normies" . Maybe that's one way. Don't expect an instant awakening but plant the seeds. I do that now. I raise the question. I share ideas that dance around the topic. I think the indirect approach is best. I like the idea of teasing someone into questioning the status quo. What's missing the most now is critical thinking. There's a passive approach to life. But wonderful things can happen when we start asking questions. I really belive that. In fact so much of what I do is an endless stream of questions which manifest answers. And then applying that new found knowledge.
I don't think there's ever been a time that I just wanted to sit down and write and share my thoughts. It hardly concerns me how many might skim through. I take a different approach I guess. I like personal one on one quality relationships. Not this mass production approach to life, how many 1000's of friends do you have on Facebook? I like this idea of getting back to our roots, the simple things in life. Let's not try to play God. Let' God handle that end. Let's just be humble but alive and interesting people. Does it make any sense? No matter, just my rambling thoughts.
I was reading Genesis the other day. Although not religious I do feel I believe in God. You know the feeling I had when I read those first few verses, I can't describe it , only it was like confirmation. Can you believe the Truth is written right at the start of the Bible?
As a realm Earth PA-gon, I would say that true understanding is not just the desire for new experiences, but the will that forges thus! Embrace the Gods on the Spectrum! Let’s get down with the syndrome!
Rock star material, Simon! I dig it! One thing is for sure: be careful to not become too zealous about anything besides Jenga! It is appeasing to jump into any kind of “movement,” but in the end, it is really our daily perspective regarding our daily lives that governs the shape of our reality. Certainly, this does not mean that a mountain is a river, and that a river is a tree! However, see the world for the myriad of complexity that it presents to us, but at the same time creatively manifest this into something that is worthwhile.
Yes, there are images of “globes” everywhere. Hell, I even had one growing up, but I used it as a container for snake bones that I dug up. Maybe people simply think the earth is a globe because that is the predominate narrative. What if it isn’t flat, either? Or what if the narrative suddenly shifts and everybody starts believing it to be flat? What if it is neither? Could it be like a bubble? Could that bubble be the entirety of creation and be the mind of God? To me, it would make much more sense than some kind of infinite flat plane. There is simply far too much depth and texture to this reality, to me, for this to be simply a globe or a flat plane.
If there is a firmament, then why wouldn’t the exploration of this structure be just as fascinating, if not more, than anything in “outer space”? Why did the “go fast” rocket not explode when it hit the firmament? What kind of material is such a structure built out of if it is real? Is it simply the edge of the universe? In other words, nothing exists past it. We can answer the question about the archer that came to the edge of the universe to shoot his arrow…..nothing goes past the edge of the universe! So many fun thoughts!
cheers brother!
