Divinations from the Geese

Our salvation is within us as it is also all around us. We often begin by accepting powerlessness. Then we find our power. Then we bring it down into the core of our being and find the lotus flower. You have the power of the universe inside you.

One of the greatest secrets in the universe is the power of non-violence. If we find our true nature, if we realize our divinity, we will realize love, and in the presence of love, the power of violence is transformed into non-violence, the power which conquers violence. The greatest injustice inflicted upon humanity is that we are trained for violence. We are taught to be separate from ourselves and from each other when our true nature is connectedness itself.

To teach people badly is to teach people that they are criminals and that they need to suppress their nature in order to be good people, when the opposite is actually true. We need to discover our true nature, because at the bottom of ourselves we will find love, not violence. Love is stronger than violence. The loving expression of violence is non-violence. Before violence existed there was no violence. There was void.

The genesis of existence was the ripping apart of the void, when it was separated from itself, and what was emptiness then became existence and non-existence.
One thing is revealed and another is hidden.

So we find ourselves here, communicating in a digital world. It's been two thousand years since we crucified Jesus Christ, and we are still killing each other. But we are finally all in touch. We have gone throughout all the lands of the earth, we have wandered from our homeland, we have prospered, we have survived. It is the dawn of a new age.

What is this internet? What are we discovering in this digital universe which is able to distract us from our immediate neighbors and our surroundings as we walk around and see everyone's eyes attached to their phones and computers instead of to each other? Is there something we found lacking?

Whatever it is, it must be significant because NOW is the moment we have never experienced before. Yet this has always been true and always will be true so long as there is existence.

There is something special about this connectivity. It is a silent revolution. The people are in touch as they have never been before. We may still feel powerless as members of society, but the power, as some dark force outside ourselves, must take heed, because the common man now has access to universal connectivity. The common man is the police. The common man is the military, is Al Qaeda, is Iran, is Pakistan. The common man IS America, even when he is oppressed by it. I AM is the common man, and the force of the universe is in him.

We are in a new age. This is the age of interconnectivity. This is the age where man discovers that he is everyone else. We are all eyes attached to a screen. Whether we are holding a digital screen in our hands, or are looking at the living reality surrounding us. Have we tapped into an alternative universe? Is it possible to separate the universe of screens and letters of virtual communication from the molecules of living matter themselves?

The internet is like having a connection into the heads of everyone else who is connected to this virtual world. TV is not a dissimilar phenomenon, but television is more about receptivity, about taking in, and it is not interactive the way the digital world of connected computers is. There are human eyes staring into the net, building the computer, inventing the reality. What are we staring into? Who are we talking to? Have we only found ourselves as we stare into the screen before us? Who invented the screen and who gives it meaning? Who is the perceiver of creation? Aren’t we seeing with the eyes of creation?

Are we talking to ourselves when we talk to each other? If we are connected to everything around us, then we are talking to separate parts of One. But that separation is only an illusion. Isn’t that what our science has taught us? Isn’t that what our spiritualities have been telling us?

In the beginning was the void, but the void was whole. Was the void encapsulated in the smallest molecule of existence? Inside this molecule was every potentiality in the universe. The void was God. Before it became everything, god was nothing. Then suddenly our science tells us we had a big bang. As the splitting of the atom makes a big bang, so it was when the void split in two. Whatever it was before, it was the mother and father of existence, and all the universes are the realm of its creation.

So with the separation of One into light and dark, positive and negative, male and female, there was suddenly everything, existence itself, and it was expanding. And here we are in the midst of it. Conscious members of creation. All we have ever known is that we were here, looking out at existence. We have been trying to figure it out. We want to know what it all means, but how can a sliver of a finger nail understand the entirety of the body it belongs to?

To explain why we have been trying to shoot ourselves into space with rockets, into unlivable environs, when we have the garden of Eden itself here on earth, with food growing, water to drink, and air to breath, we have to really explore reality. Why would we do something so illogical? It could be that somebody, some scientist maybe, really wants to look at existence objectively, and it can’t be done from in here, in this atmospheric bubble. So he is trying to get out far enough that he can look back down here from an objective perspective.

The problem with this particular scientists’ little project is that there is no out there out there. He’ll still be looking out there from in here. You can’t be alive and truly get out of in here. Enlightenment is still here. No matter how high you go, you are still here. In fact the highest you can get is right now. That’s what existence is. It’s in here. Non-existence is out there. That’s heaven. That’s empty space. That is nothing. Enlightenment is the experience of being fully connected to everything. But only in non-existence is everything whole again. There is no existence in infinity. It just is ever after.

Existence is the experience of being temporary. All things that are alive exist because they will cease to exist. Existence doesn’t exist without non-existence. Nothing is the void.

In the beginning was the void, and to the Void we shall return. Behind the computer is just more void. Behind our selves is the void. In this void we are angels. In here is love. Out there is love. Everything else is just the illusion of separation.



A Quick Note


Psychiatry and psychology are the rational side of the brain telling the irrational side of the brain that it's crazy. Religion, superstition, and belief in the super-natural, is the irrational side of our brain telling the rational side that it's crazy. There is no right or wrong, just two sides, limited by their perspective, parts of One.
