Mindful of my recent post about Seth predicting that Saul who became Paul would be coming back in 2075 to finish off and correct what he started when he founded what is now the Catholic Church, I’ve started thinking recently about what it will be like to live knowing that we are not imprisoned in our bodies, and can travel where we like with our consciousness.
That’s sure not going to help the travel industry much, will it? Wherever you might want to go, why pay all that money and go through all the aggravation of travel when you can go there with your consciousness and enjoy it free of charge? Or perhaps not. People might still want to go places in their physical bodies and experience other parts of planet Earth while focused mainly in the physical body. Interesting to think about it though.
And how about privacy? If we think it is a contentious issue right now, how about living when you know that any of your neighbors might be out traveling with their consciousness in the neighborhood? Bob Monroe did when he first started going “out of body,” but he soon got interested in much more dramatic travels where he roamed widely through different types of realities and learned a lot he would otherwise never have learned. It promises to be a sticky issue though. And how about Putin having secret meetings with his key people? Will he have other consciousnesses guarding the room so no floating consciousnesses from the U.S. can listen in? Of course it wouldn’t be Putin, but one of his successors.
On the other hand, if we all come to realize we are eternal spirits playing a temporary role as a human on Earth, and if we also come to realize that time is just an adopted framework we all agreed on in order to play the earth game, and all the roles we’re playing are going on at once, why would Putin or any other dictator bother? Wouldn’t they instead gain a greater respect for all other humans, since all of them are eternal spirits just playing a role, however high and mighty or lowly?
And how about the Muslims, especially the Islam fellows who stone women for getting raped or marrying a Christian? If they too start to understand that they come into the earth sometimes as males, sometimes as females, sometimes as Christians and sometimes perhaps as Jews, what does that do to their fervor for killing as many Christians and Jews as they can, as their holy books instruct them to do?
And what of the striving for material gain? For better houses and food and vacation places? I suspect that will remain strong despite our increased awareness, because people will still want the best possible experience for themselves in the physical body, whatever the might do outside of it. But I could be wrong there. Some people called “breatharians” have already learned how to sustain themselves by tapping into the energy that’s all around us, so they don’t need to eat. Will we all be doing that?
How about power? Look at any dictator, religious leader and most of the politicians? They want power over others and they want to use it. They want to tell us all how to live and behave. They want power over any earthly possessions we gather, so they can distribute them as they please to whoever they consider most deserving. Look at the Castros, Hugo Chavez, the Kirchners in Argentina, Dilma Rousseff in Brazil, or for that matter Obama, Pelosi and Reid in the U.S.A., and the current Pope?
Not only do the want that power, they also assume the power to use government agencies to punish those who disagree with them. Look at Chuck Schumer demanding that the IRS punish conservative organizations. It’s chilling to look at the IRS scandals we have now, and the spectacle of Obama painting people who financially supported Mitt Romney as “evil people?” That’s the problem with those who assume so much power. As Margaret Thatcher said, sooner or later they run out of other people’s money. So they just keep taking more or start printing money as long as they can get away with it.
Another problem is that we’re still humans, with our tendency to get corrupted when we have a lot of power. Look at some of our biggest cities on the verge of bankruptcy today. Some people think I’m a relatively trustworthy guy, but would they really want me in charge of deciding whether they get to keep any of their earthly possessions? Would they sleep peacefully at night, assured I won’t find someone tomorrow more deserving to give their money and possessions to?
Well maybe it won’t be so bad. Maybe we’ll all realize that chasing after money and material things is silly when we know that the true underlying reality is one of thoughts and emotions, and objects are just exterior symbols of our inner thoughts and emotions, and we can change what we materialize by our choices as to what we focus on. Maybe or maybe not.
And of course, what happens in one probability won’t necessarily happen in another, so perhaps we’ll have many variations on the reality we experience when we understand all these things. We’ll likely be aware of other probable realities by then, so we’ll be able to experience the results of all the different paths we take.
It gets very complex when you think about all this in detail, doesn’t it? It makes me wonder what we can do to get ready for it. 2075 is not that far away. Our kids or their kids will experience it in the body, and for those of us who will “die” (there is no death of the spirit, and that’s what we are) in the next 20 years, we might well be reincarnated by then. Frankly, as much as I’d like to get started preparing for how we’ll live then, I can’t think of much except to start spreading these ideas around, which sound so strange to people now, and starting to learn how to project our consciousness out of our bodies, which a lot of people do now anyway.
And I suppose we could all start looking at every other person as an eternal spirit who deserves our respect on the spirit level, regardless of how humble their position is in life, or regardless of how much of a jerk or evil person we might judge them to be at the “focus personality” level that we now consider their only identity.
Maybe we’ll take into consideration that this is only a “fumbling focus personality” that has totally lost its bearings and gotten so completely immersed in the physical time-space illusion that it has forgotten its larger spiritual nature — and so needs our sympathy and support at the spirit level so that it gets back on track as “quickly” (time doesn’t exist at a deeper, larger level)) and completely as possible.
I guess that brings me back to the title of this blog. No matter how “evil” you are from my perspective, you are indeed here for me to “love” you in that sense. I can conceptualize it easily enough, but would I have what it takes to live it? I know I have it at my Big Self level, but at the level of my focus personality, even knowing all this stuff, I’m not so sure. Having written You’re Bigger Than Death … and life too, I supposedly know all this. But…
Watching Saddam Hussein put my family in a wood chipper, or watching some African terrorist make a mother choose which child is to be killed or tortured, I think it would be awfully difficult to keep my focus on their Big Self. I’d really have to work hard to convince myself that this is really all an illusion we’ve collectively agreed to mutually create when we take on the root assumptions of a world where we as spirits enter physical bodies and play the game we’re playing.
Not an easy game to play for many of the participants, is it? Even if we know their Big Self chose it ahead of time. I’d know what I know, but I’d also feel what I feel, and I think the feelings might have me blasting the “bad guys” to bits if I could. So much for my being developed enough to leave the reincarnational cycle and go on to better things!!!! Thank goodness there are a lot of more advanced, more developed spirits around us all the time, helping to guide us.
