Short and to the point.
Finally!
A stadium full of people, sitting in silence, focussed intently on the figure beneath them. In the very centre of the stadium he places a crystal ball on a small stand. To the people at the top it's barely visible but they know it's there which is enough. You have a point of reference, there is the stadium itself, the many thousand sitting in it, peacefully, calmly entering into the consciousness of One, and of course, there is the universe, the galaxy around. Universe, stadium, crystal ball, and somewhere deep, deep within it the zero point - so far within the crystal that to all intents and purposes it is equally within the heart space of every person sitting and observing - it is I am One.
And what? What happens?
Nothing much.
Uh?! All that... tens of thousands of people assemble together for "nothing much"?
You asked "what". In terms of what - nothing much happens - for "what" is connected with matter - ideas, things, events that seem to matter - that are observed by a certain part of the mind - the i-mind//what-matters mind, as opposed to the universal mind of conscious awareness.
Ok - so you're saying I can't see what's really happening.
Yes.
Well go on then, tell me what's really happening.
Not-what.
Not what? What do you mean?
Well, the many thousand observers are united in a single wave of is.
A wave of is? What's that supposed to be?
Again, Pi, it isn't supposed to be "what" in any shape or form. It's not-what.
Ok, ok, stop splitting hairs! Not-what's that supposed to be? Happy now?
Pi finds himself gazing at nothing. At first this panics him and he starts hyperventilating. Then he feels something, some kind of presence adding assurances that all is well. and he let's go of whatever it was that was causing the panic attack.
Ah - there you are Zie. I thought I'd lost you.
You had, for a moment. You could only find me if you passed through.
Passed through what?
Not-what.
Oh that again...
So you had a panic attack as I led you through the edge of your matrix - the reality you're normally confined to.
You did?
Yes. Don't worry - it was consensual. I didn't force you in any way - I simply presented the opening, and you yourself stepped through.
Er... but how? I've been sitting here all along.
You passed through energetically - when you stopped fighting the frequency shift and allowed yourself to join the people in the stadium.
My God! You mean I'm with them now?
Yes. You're now shifted into the same frequency band.
I have? But I can't see them.
No, but you're ready to start exploring their reality. Think of it like a novel. When you start reading a good novel you join the author and all the other readers in a certain other-dimensional story-space. The same is true when we go beyond what, when we discover that not-what is not in fact a negative at all, though that's how it seems at first from our 3D perspective.
Well if it's not a negative - why don't you give it a more positive sounding name?
No reason. We're essentially dealing with the zero point. Any name, any idea or thing, for that matter, gets in the way of it. Even people following a spiritual path run into this problem. Their beliefs, their rituals, sacred objects or daily practices - no matter what - can ultimately prevent them from reaching the zero point.
Why's that?
Because they grow attached to them, to the paraphernalia, whereas the zero point seems to be nothing at all - until you take the plunge, until you let go, freeing your mind to arrive unencumbered.
Arrive where?
No-where.
Then what?
Not-what... conscious awareness. The infinite waiting within. The presence. The isness of be.
All very vague sounding.
Until you're experiencing it. Then nothing could be more real.
Nothing could be more real - why's that?
Because things are derivatives, spun from the essence, and their very structure keeps us from the allness, the oneness - from dissolving into the ocean of conscious awareness.
Yes Zie, but it still sounds terribly vague.
Which is why we have the universe and millions of civilisations on other planets engaged in the same...
The same?
0=1. All people are ultimately engaged in the same
Which is?
Which is You see, as soon as I specify "what", or even punctuate the above, I create a degree of separation, a seeming certainty which engenders what-not, a some-thing derived from the isness.
So you can't say "what" because that pops the bubble?
Not exactly. Saying what involves thinking and thinging, both of which activate the i-mind//what matters, so then you're back at the start, no closer to your goal.
Er... so how do we get closer if we're not allowed any pointers?
You don't rely on pointers because the goal is not a particular place or thing. It's the state of conscious awareness. It's absolutely simple to attain - truly - nothing could be simpler.
Well it doesn't sound at all simple.
Ok - there's a stadium and all the people sitting therein are aware that the stadium is, to all intents and purposes, the centre of the universe.
How is that possible? I thought there was a black hole at the centre of the universe?
"Black hole" - it's still just a thing, a name, an it - let it go. Once we've embarked on the cosmic journey, the quest for the holy grail - the isness waiting to be discovered within each one of us, and together as a community - then we realise that we cannot help being at the centre of the universe, no matter what the i-mind//what-matters might think...
So we just ignore empirical evidence and treat our rational mind as an irrelevance?
No, we do not.
Then what?
Not-what. We cannot help feeling the simple, joyful, magical truth as we follow our heart back towards the One, back to conscious awareness.
So we follow our heart and to hell with our mind?
Actually, when you follow the heart the mind doesn't go to hell. Quite the contrary - the mind starts to shine, vibrating at ever higher frequency: it starts to tune into the cosmic mind, and realises that space is not quite what it seems. So, there's no great struggle. Feeling what is doesn't involve denying the material universe. Feeling what is involves coming into a state of knowing.
Knowing what?
Knowing that the material universe is a representation in space and time of that which truly is, beyond even space or time. That is why it's perfectly reasonable for our assembled seekers to know that they are, as a result of their intention, the very centre of the universe, and furthermore they know that as they are the centre of the universe, so the crystal ball has become the centre, the focal point of their collective consciousness.
It has? What does that achieve?
Well, you watch football in your reality. Why do you think?
Because it's fun to watch a ball flying around, being propelled by men's feet... er, kind of. I don't know really. I never gave it much thought.
Yes, strange isn't it? but in terms of your evolution, football is a major step towards what I'm now describing. It is, in a sense, the child's version. The book with pictures. Later, you'll no longer need to have players kicking the ball, and instead of an inflated ball you'll decide a simple crystal ball is better. Eventually you'll go beyond even that, but one thing at a time.
Ok - so you guys are staring at a crystal ball. That's kind of dumb if you ask me - unless it's some kind of powerful trance-like meditation, but you see, even meditation, interesting though it may be, doesn't satisfy the people's need for entertainment, emotional drama and competition. We're all at heart Colosseum-goers, enjoying watching gladiators fight to the death.
Yes, so you yourself recognise how football is a more evolved form of gladiators. Well the crystal stadium is the next step up.
But what happens? Where's the drama?
Imagine I'd tried to explain football to the Roman people. The stomach of a pig, filled with air, kicked around by men who are supposed to propel it through two gates using only their feet. What do you think the Roman plebeian would have said to that?
Point taken. But you can still try me. What do they do in your crystal ball stadium?
Well, they've all agreed collectively and individually to open up this shared space - the conscious awareness. It's a matter of trust, and love. Once you start trusting one another and open this space, then love pours in.
Sounds boring. You can hardly be in love with an entire stadium.
Right. It's love with a capital L, more akin to cosmic light - the golden light of consciousness.
And what? It's too vague. There's nothing interesting in what you're telling me.
Well, your reality, your society becomes increasingly sterile, boring, repetitive because you're not engaging the universe - interacting with it and with one another, as long as you're following the gladiator model of existence. Until you start doing so, until you reconnect to the allness, you have to get your kicks, as they say, by kicking one another - by trying to take from another by guile, deceit, strength or artistry.
Yes, survival of the fittest we call it.
Except it isn't. The fittest are approaching a mass planetary extinction event along with the weaker and more vulnerable - because you're undermining your very planetary base.
Don't tell me, I know.
So, knowing this, you - individually - and equally importantly through the collective consciousness - now agree to shift into a modus operandi that no longer fails to take account of the whole. You start, without really needing to think long and hard about it, acting in accordance with the so-called law of One.
Which is?
Which is not in itself a law at all, but which involves shifting into the next level of consciousness - what I call the conscious awareness.
Which is?
Which is the consciousness that enables you to thrive on this planet - to discover the light, the power,the magic within and all around, to spin on a dime, leaving behind the old failed path of i-mind//what-matters by opening up and engaging the conscious awareness.
You still haven't really told me what it is!
No, I don't need to, because you already know.
I do?
Yes. You're already tuned in to it. You can already sense what the crowd are doing at the stadium. Why don't you just imagine that you know - that you can see. Make it up - tell me the story. It's just a game, you know.
Er... Ok. I'll give it a go.
Pi looks serious for a moment, then closes his eyes - takes a few deep breaths, relaxes and tunes in...
Oh my God - it's so amazing. There are all these golden lines - well - mostly golden - and they're moving around, through the stadium. The energy is so intense - but beautiful and soft at the same time. There's one man - or woman - I'm not sure...
It can be either - don't worry about gender.
And he or she...
Say he-see - that's simpler.
He-see is moving around - dancing - oh my God - at times flying...
Flying - but you can see, can you not, that at times he-see even flies down below the level of the ground.
Yes, that's bizarre. So, this stadium is outside our normal 3D space-time reality - and these lines of energy connecting the universe, the stadium with the people in it and the crystal are infinitely more powerful than the weak bonds of matter.
Precisely. Now, how does the game end.
Well, it doesn't really seem to be like a game - it's not like there are two sides, is it?
Correct.
There are people who can be on one side, then on another - and no one really identifies with one or the other - they just adjust in accordance with the flow of the game, to ensure beauty and harmony.
Yes.
And it's like they're making music as they connect to these lines - like drawing the violin's bow across a string.
Yes.
And these bows create powerful resonance that is felt within the stadium, that moves the single player around, and is felt beyond - throughout the universe - for the game goes through the zero point - meaning that 0=1 - there is no separation between the levels - the finite and the infinite interact like the breath blowing across the mouthpiece of a flute, inducing sound.
Correct. But the game has an end, does it not?
Oh yes. One of the sides grabs the crystal.
Grabs it?
No, not exactly grabs it, but one of the sides guides the player through the many interweaving lines of force and energy until he-see arrives at the crystal and places a hand close enough to it to complete the circuit. It's like a spark of pure delight, of oneness flows through, between the centre of the universe here in the crystal and the all-that-is within each person and entire universe.
Correct. Even the losers partake of this?
Yes, for they are not losers in the usual sense.
No?
No. They are dance partners, and in any case, there are no fixed sides as such.
So one side completes the equation...
Oh - yes - it is like an equation - there's this astonishing symmetry and balance - but at the same time...
Something else - or other you might call it.
Oh. That's what it is. It troubles me.
Yes. It feels like disharmony until you learn to use it, to play with it creatively. In your old reality it would be referred to as "evil" because that's what it generally led to.
It did? Why?
You can see for yourself, can't you, when you tune in and feel it - how it seems to be disruptive, pulling from centre disturbingly - out of harmony and symmetry.
Yes, I feel it. Ouch. Not nice.
So people in your age and further back tried to resist, contain or fight it - but to no avail - it is fundamental and cannot be defeated.
And you no longer fight it?
No need. It is I am
You mean 0=1?
That too. All pretty ways of saying nothing much.
Nothing much - oh - I think I see what you mean. So this game is a kind of ritual, a dance in which you're able to embrace and harness this once destructive force. to achieve harmony... and oneness because no one takes sides? Is that it?
Chicken or egg... yes and no - like any explanation using words... No one takes sides because we have already accepted the isness of be, and gone beyond the duality of i-mind//what-matters, because fundamentally, like it or not, 0=1, so "evil" has to be a vital and integral part of the oneness. Instead of fearing the wind that might blow us out of the nest, we now fly with it and know what words cannot express.
Ah, yes, I see. So you've now incorporated what was the destructive power of evil into the very heart of your community and your civilisation, a vast power that enables you to connect viscerally - physically - with the entire universe, the allness.
Yes, and more than that - to open up the connection within our self which is no less, and to start creating rather than merely manipulating old forms.
So when do I get to play?
You've already started, as have all your friends who now read this.
What friends?
It matters not. Anyone reading this, sharing this energy is your friend, whether they know it or not, and are already playing - for the game starts with a story, with a few words, and then expands into the conscious awareness, and finally we come together physically in a circle, or even a stadium and the Berlin Wall of i-mind//what matters comes tumbling down in a wave of gay, magical oneness. Cuckoo la la :-)
Tell out my soul! Cuckoo la la :-)
