Just This

“What is this… illusion?” (Dormammu, Dr. Strange, 2016)

Everything is energy and everything is made of atoms. Interestingly enough atoms at their core are not things but vortexes of oscillating fields sometimes loosely or tightly packed based on forces influencing, or the intelligence ordering them. From there we get matter with space and time (a side effect of quantum entanglement) a level down from the plane of transcendence to our current dual reality of time and space.

But what are they (time and space) other than mental concepts we have, beliefs even or labels we've put to try and make sense of our perceivable world with our limited senses which can only grasp a paltry 5% of matter. To top it off, awareness seems to only take place after the actions within our perception of time have been generated.

For example, you believe or trust what you see after you have turned towards that which you intend to perceive. Without the intent then the actions do not exist in your frame of mind, ergo; you are not aware of them, it, the thing, event, people and so on. As "what we note as fact and sense perception is nothing but a more or less justified judgment, which though presented in the honest belief, still offers no positive truth" (Amicus Pluto, sed mayis amica veritas).

So you see, everything is conceptualized in the mind by the manipulation of subtle matter and energy in light of the spirit and focused through the soul into forms, thoughts and concepts as Dr. Muata Ashby puts it. If so, haven’t we all ordered our world based on a collective agreed upon system of opinions, theories, and viewpoints alike?

I think therefore I am (Descartes) creates a stand point, then we vocalize our thoughts or ideas (give them life through vibration) “I feel good” then the body obeys the intent behind the words and the actions that follow are of a good nature; a face with a smile, a happy gait and a warm countenance. The same can be said of the opposite, thoughts of not feeling so good manifesting into a slumped figure, an irritable nature, a gloomy aura and so on and so forth, like a feedback loop.

Furthermore, within the term I am(me) resides a metaphysical concept of two principles of mind: I represents the masculine principle of will, giving, expressing; which corresponds to objective, conscious, voluntary and active mind, heat, fire or the soul/sol, positive charge(proton) and being. While me represents the feminine principle of wisdom, receiving impressions; which corresponds to subjective, sub-conscious, involuntary and passive mind, cool, water or the body/moon, negative charge(electron) and becoming.

How then have we ordered our world as a collective? Ordered our beliefs to search outwards for solutions that should rightfully begin inwards. Passing on what some would claim irrational concepts that leave us little room to make conscious choices for ourselves. 

With a notion of ‘I am what I think’ as a core principle, one may shatter at the thought of having to change their viewpoints. But is what you think your original thought or are they ideas you’ve been inculcated to accept as the norm? Hmmm…

To question of what you believe is to be human, it’s an activity solely ingrained in us for the advancement of our species development be it physical, mental or spiritual. For the nature of the soul is to grow/evolve, cataclysmic or non-cataclysmic, which requires a continual death and rebirth of one's individual understanding of his/her reality in totality (Jeffery Wolf Green). 

As Ken Wheeler likes to put it ‘there are only two types of lives, one of the contemplative, which is most rare and a life of action, which is most common.” Then what life are you choosing to live, is it one of contemplation or one of action? How about we do both; a life that questions and acts to find answers and more questions. 

For we are the effect of cause which is intent, moved by emotion that creates our physical realities; our universe which consists of ideas and thought systems condensed and turned towards itself to create and originate spirit and energy (Alex Collier, 1996).

Thus, everything in the universe begins as an image and manifests into an object (C Freeman El). It’s our minds that make this illusion of time and space seem real, and it's our minds where we should begin our epic adventure of untangling our egoistic views of the world.
