The Grand Illusion: A creation story

The Grand Illusion: A creation story

In the beginning there was ONE creator, neither male nor female, who was pure energy and wanted to make other creators. From hir vast experience hir came up with an inspiration or unique idea how to do it this time around. You can understand this idea as ‘Hir Story’ or inspiration. After hir had her idea, hir divided hirself into matter and energy many times via successive explosions, where the first explosion was the strongest and each successive explosion being less strong. Hir did this until there were tiny bits of matter and energy. Each matter bit can be understood to be like a seed containing his energy and her matter, a male and female part. In this way hir spread hirself out all over and now hir existed everywhere as energy and many tiny seeds each with growing instructions containing hir story. Over a long period of time the tiny seeds grew and eventually became living people like we are today, each endowed with the same capabilities of our creator to create things.

People on earth are like infants or seeds of the ONE creator. Each person has the potential to mature and grow to become a child of the ONE if they learn how to do that, which basically happens through guidance from the ONE creator which is present both inside and outside of every seed in the world.

As the people grow over a long period of time, it can be seen that the one creator is gradually coming back together as ONE. As people live and create in the physical world they collect experiences over their lifetimes which is knowing. Over time the people become more alive which can be seen as the awakening process of humanity. 

At this point in time it is good to be reminded of our reality. There is only ONE creator, and all beings were created by the ONE creator throughout their long growing history. The ONE creator not only supplied us our matter and our energy but also supplied us with our creation story. The reality is that there is only ONE creation story which came from the ONE creator. The ONE story is embedded in each tiny bit of matter; it is like a growing instruction for everything so that it can come back together as ONE at the end in the way that the ONE creator envisioned. But also because we were created and grown as parts of the ONE whole, each individual has been created and grown over time given a unique role to implement one part of the story. This has to be because we are separate and parts of the ONE whole. You can see this like each person has a special role to play in the grand scheme of the ONE story.

When awakening happens we become aware of the ONE creator within ourselves and also become aware of our created aspect. Our created aspect is a collection of life experiences; it is our part of the ONE story known as past lives. We were created, grown and envisioned by the ONE creator as one part of the whole that was our role in the ONE story. The past lives are not what is important, that is and was a created role as part of the One Story. What is important is what you have learned from having had that role, which is expansion of your knowing which is not a memory or physical and subject to erasure, it is your *potential* being, but not yet manifest. Your unique individual being manifests and becomes independent from the ONE creator at the end of the story, a true child of the ONE creator, at the moment when all matter returns to ONE energy. When awakening happens we can easily be confused, that our story is actually ‘our story’ and that we are thus independent beings. Our story ‘by itself’ is not real. There is only ONE STORY, and we are all part of it, we each have a part of the ONE creator’s story. In reality there exists only ONE creator who divided hirself into male and female and at the end of the growing the male and female will come back together into ONE Physical Being, as all matter returns to its source to join with the ONE creator.

At the point of awakening when you SEE your created aspect you will be given a most essential thing to think about. Do you think you created yourself and your story and you are alive as the ONE creator is or do you rather think you were created and your story is part of that ONE story and you are not alive (yet)? So that is the crux of the matter, will you believe your story or will you rather detach from your story and understand it is part of the whole?  And the latter is the only way to gain true independence as a living being, by giving up your ‘fake life’ (which was given to you anyway and is not real), you gain ‘true life‘ (what this is all about, becoming a separate living child of the one creator).

The One Story can also be seen as One Huge Ego, and each part of the whole or each being as having a separate ego. Awakening progresses by going beyond our Egos, by letting go of identity with it. The more people that go beyond identity with their ego, the stronger the ONE EGO gets, you can see it as the ONE STORY having more influence and thereby also the internal pressure of all beings builds which pushes more people to awaken. The truth is there is only ONE Creator, there is only One Story and there can only be ONE Alive Physical being. When you find the beginning, there also shall the end be.

Why Distant Healing is an Effective Therapy

To understand why distance energy healing is an effective and complementary healing therapy it is helpful to have background information about human evolution and the physics of the energy world we live in. I understand this article is long, so if you are not interested in the physics of energy healing, you can easily skip ahead to another section of interest.

Universal Life Cycle

In late 2011, a trio of scientists discovered that since the big bang happened, the universe is expanding at an increasing pace, not decreasing like previously thought! This expansion itself is synonymous with the 'growing force'. As long as the expansion is increasing in speed, then all life encompassed by the universe is within a growing process. When the expansion pace stops, then the big life cycle of this universe will be mature, reproduction of the universe will occur and then the universe will start to break down and collapse back upon itself in the dying process. This life cycle of birth, growing, maturity, reproduction, decline and finally death is seen in every life form on earth.

Increasing pace of speed means all objects are vibrating faster and being subjected to increased vibration. This is seen easily in our sun, which grows hotter and puts out more energy each year. This means all life on earth is being subjected to a stronger vibration and energy each year, as the sun grows. We are growing too. This is obvious from looking at our fossil record that life on earth has been subject to this growing force for millions of years and there have been many growth cycles and metamorphosis of new species over time.

The Growing Force

What is this growing force? Well, that is something scientists cannot yet categorize, but it is likely equivalent to the large invisible portion of the universe known as dark energy, which makes up 70% of the universe. Only 5% of the universe is visible with objects such as the earth and stars, down to atomic level and the other 25% of universe is composed of dark matter. I understand the invisible dark energy to be the source energy that contains all potential. It is the growing force, invisible light, and is the source of the conscious intelligence that is present in all living forms. Because it cannot be seen, this means it has not manifested as any form, it is pure energy, and I liken it to the energy of our creator. 

An interesting fact of physics is "objects gain mass by moving through space". This means the growing force is causing all objects to gain mass, which includes us. From Einstein's famous equation of E=mc², energy is equal to the mass times the speed of light squared. As objects gain mass, obviously their energy increases and they vibrate faster. If you already understand you are eternal and cannot be destroyed, this means your energetic vibration and mass are increasing with each successive lifetime you have experienced.

Our Physical Reality

Physical life is not what it appears on the surface. The reality is all objects we can see and feel are mostly composed of space. From Nova's Fabric of the Cosmos Series Greene stated: "Matter is mostly empty space. If you take out the space and the mass of the Empire State Building, it would condense to the size of a super-heavy grain of rice. Space is not actually empty. It is seething with activity at the quantum level. Particles are continually flashing in and out of existence." The universe is 95% invisible space, the empire state building is the same and the solid matter is like a heavy grain of rice, the same is true of us. We look solid, but the reality is we are full of invisible space. That invisible space contains our source energy, our essence, our soul, our growing force, it contains dark energy and we are filled with the growing force itself, which is intelligent and indestructible. This growing force is what gives us intuition, creativity, physical form and allows healing to occur in our bodies to name a few things. Our solid aspect is our current physical manifestation that we can see, but as we know, it is only temporary and death will eventually destroy it. However, our energetic aspect is eternal and cannot be destroyed. All the forms and forces of the universe are within our bodies, we are part of the universe and thus an object and subject to the same laws of physics that affect objects. Spirituality is actually a physical force; it exists even if we cannot measure it. Spirituality is the intelligent consciousness that is present in all life. Consciousness is at the center of all the forces of physics, it is the unifying force that physicists cannot find and we are one with it. The source cannot be found in the normal way by observing past forms, it can only be located by dropping our attachment to physical formed reality and becoming still. When we are totally still, then we are one with it, we then can see it, feel it and know it.

We are all connected through the Universal Sea

The dark energy that fills the universe fills all objects as well. It is like an invisible fluid that can easily penetrate all objects because it has no solid particles, it is pure energy. Because there is no matter in dark energy, then no object can shield from being saturated by it. It is everywhere, ever-present and intelligent. We are all connected due to the existence of dark energy that permeates everything. Dark energy exists as a universally distributed and continuous fluid and by its nature is capable of receiving, propagating and communicating all the impressions of movement. It is comparable to the vehicle of transport of information between objects in the universe. Because the dark energy permeates everything, effectively there is no distance between any physical object in space-time and communication and transport of information happens instantly. This pure fluid fills all the space and interstices between all particles. We actually exist in a fluid world, like fishes in the sea, where any movement of a fish affects all other fish in the sea. Because of this universal fluid, we are able to approach each other, withdraw, communicate, and be connected to each other. This fluid is the sole mechanism for our reciprocal relations, it is consciousness itself.

What is Time?

In its simplest definition, time is a reference point about something that physically happened in the universe, where 'the time' actually exists primarily as a memory. Human time is a convenience to reference happenings of the past, present and future. Time itself exists due to the growing force, so can be seen as evidence of the growing force. There would not be time or future reference points if there were not an expanding growing force. If we were at the point where the universe had stopped expanding then matter would start to collapse back on itself and we would see the effect of 'reverse-time' or going backwards in time. If you could merge fully with the field of dark energy, which you can do by being entirely still, then time ceases to exist. This is because dark energy is the growing force and when you stop moving, then you are one with it, and thus no movement is detected, time then appears to stand still. An interesting 'spiritual fact' about time is all times exist at the same time. Any specific 'time' can be referenced and accessed by knowing unique qualities about the time in question whether it be past, present or future. This is because each happening has a unique quality of vibration and characteristics, which distinguish it from all other times. Okay, this explanation needs another spiritual fact, and that is nothing is ever destroyed, it only changes it shape. This fact makes distance energy healing possible for past, present and future events.

Human Evolution Today

Human beings today face a profound evolutionary transformation due to increasing vibration of the universe due to acceleration of the growing force and the effect it is having on our bodies. It seems our old human species is no longer suited to the new environment, and a transformation is being forced on us to metamorphosis into a new species. It is natural when near the end of a growth cycle, extra stress is put on organisms to transform and this is the main reason for the growing sickness, violence and stress we see today. Signs of this ongoing human transformation are increased symptoms of disease, elevated stress levels, increased violence and on the positive side spiritual awakenings in growing numbers of people today.

The evolution of humans on earth has been going on for thousands of years, and what is important to know about it is, each generation of humans has a higher level of self-realization. These days this is easy to see by the increasing number of people who are experiencing spiritual awakenings. As humans move through space-time by living successive lifetimes, our mass increases which also means our vibration increases. This is equivalent to saying our self-realization levels increase. This change in our energetic vibration and awareness level through successive lifetimes is primarily stored in the DNA, which contains instructions for our physical growing. When our vibration or mass reaches a certain threshold, it will trigger strands in the DNA to activate and a successive transformation or healing process will follow. The accelerated evolutionary forces we face today have the reason to raise our self-realization level. No matter where we are at individually in our evolution, the current times with the stress and problems we face give everyone an opportunity to learn about healing and transformation processes. The illnesses and difficulties we face today can motivate us to find solutions and ways to heal. Human evolution is the same as increased self-realization level and rising awareness is the same as the healing process. Healing is also the same as the growing process and always results in increased self-awareness. Healing and higher level of spirituality are the same thing.

What causes Disease?

As the growing force from the universe increases our internal vibration, it puts stress on our existing physical structure. It is like our physical structure and organization eventually reaches a point where it cannot exist in the increased vibration field and it starts to break down. This is a natural process of evolution, change and transformation and part of the universal growing force. With every living thing, there is a natural pattern or birth, growing, maturation, reproduction, then decline and eventually death. After reproduction, the physical form tends to be fixed, and while the growing force is still vibrant and present, it does not prevent decline and death because we are attached to our physical form and we prevent this force from healing and transforming us due to our attachment to the known and familiar form. The primary way we stay attached to the old form is by constant use of our mind-voice or thinking. Decline starts because we do not let go of the existing form and allow ourselves to be changed. If we were not attached to our personality, if we were not clinging to existing known forms, then we would simply transform and heal. When we do not let go of attachment to our old self, this causes stress, fear, violence and disease because we are resisting the transformation energy trying to keep the familiar mind-voice self intact. The higher the vibration of the universe and the more rigid our outer self, the less we allow change of our habits and conditioned ways, the sicker we will be. The truth is we have plenty of energy to heal us; the dark energy is abundant and instantly accessed. To start the healing process we need information about healing, practice and experience with energy healing and believing it is possible! Once we believe it is possible we will learn how to access this abundant healing source and healing will happen. After healing happens then we will be convinced of this powerful source, and will get an unexpected side-affect of higher awareness and spiritual awakening and be motivated to go on with it!

Physical and non-physical aspects of self

A living system is like being composed of two objects; there is the manifest part of our physical body and the part not manifest as our spirit or life force. Each is vibrating at a different rate. It is as if we have a strong perfect vibration deep inside us, but the physicality and structure of our body and personality that covers this, prevents the inside vibration from manifesting externally as a whole and perfectly ‘in the flesh’. The lower our physical level of vibration is, the more restricted the flow of energy is throughout our body and the sicker and less aware we are. The physical aspect of self is not our permanent or real aspect, rather it is our reflected visible aspect, it represents what we are currently capable to manifest given our self-knowledge and experience.

Our full potential is contained in our non-reflected invisible aspect, which is our soul, spirit or source energy. This vibration is the same as the vibration of dark energy or of the growing force itself. We can access this vibration and be one with it by placing our attention in the correct way to see it, feel it and be one with it. Our energetic aspect of self is indestructible, eternal and has abundant energy and information. Being part of the universal dark energy fluid that permeates everything, it is a vast resource of huge energy potential and contains much information. We are made of the material of the universe and we are made of light (dark energy). Because we have light inside us, when we get still, then there is no sense of time because we have matched the speed of light, because we are now being as one with light. A fact of physics states that at the speed of light, transformation from matter to energy physically happens. When we are as one with the source of light by being still, then transformation from matter to energy physically happens and our vibration increases and we become more aware. In the space of being still, transformation, healing and metamorphosis happens. Being still is the meditative state, and when we achieve it, we change. Distance healing is an effective therapy because it puts the person being healed into this still state that causes transformation and healing.

Energy Blocks

An energy block is an area in the body where energy has difficulty to move through which prevents healing of the area. Disease and injuries tend to manifest in areas of energy blocks. Energy blocks in the body also form along a line in the body, so when a problem develops in one area, it tends to later affect the next thing along that line. Energy blocks in the body have a direct link with a program of conditioned response in the mind for the use of this body section. Conditioned response maintains the energy block. All humans have thousands of energy blocks, which we have created due to our initial choices of response to happenings and conditioned use of our body, mind and emotions afterwards. The energy block will continue to exist until the conditioned response is removed, which happens when the mind reorganizes or is reprogrammed.

As we live our life, we accumulate more energy blocks and eventually the blocks become problematic and our body tells us this is so, by producing symptoms as it tries to heal our problems. When we have an illness or disease, this means our energy is not flowing through our body in an ideal way. If the energy were flowing ideally, we would have perfect health as the body always tries to maintain a homeostasis. When there are energy blocks, our system will respond by producing symptoms, which are a sign of restoration towards balance. If the normal way that the body eliminates toxins and harmful substances is blocked, it will find another pathway to eliminate them.

From birth onwards, we accumulate energy blocks from experiences in the tissues of the body and mind, which progressively reduce our physical energetic vibration and result in less ability for our body to maintain homeostasis. Energetic flows in the body get blocked and tension accumulates in tissues of the body around those blockages, reducing our overall energy. We create and maintain energy blocks in various ways. We unconsciously protect an area of the body that was hurt in the past to prevent experiencing pain in that area again. We make repetitive movements of facial and body expressions, which cause excessive strength in lines relating to those movements and weakness in areas of body not used. In our hectic lives we accumulate stress and muscle tension, and do not know how to release it daily. There is inherited genetic imprinting causing genetic disease, which is due to long unresolved issues of self-change. The reasons for energy blocks in the body are varied but there is one common factor, and that is due to our habitual use of our mind in a programmed way. The longer an energy block stays in place, the more our overall energy is reduced as it eventually spreads and starts to reduce energy flow in associated body parts. The lower our energy gets the less ability we have to stave off disease and maintain a healthy and flexible state in the body.

Healing happens when we increase our energetic vibration

Common to all therapies and treatments is healing happens due to a boost in our energetic vibration. Massage releases tension from muscles, stored energy is released and returned to the system. Taking needed vitamins or supplements can make our system run smoother and more efficiently. If we are hungry and eat or are tired and sleep, then our energy is replenished. Taking a nature walk, can relax mind and body and release stress. Fasting and cleansing protocols can rest and clean the digestive system. It takes a lot of energy to digest food, and when we fast there is an immediate boost in energy, which many experience also as increased clarity and awareness. Switching to a healthier diet will increase our energetic vibration, as it takes less energy to digest healthy foods and the nutrient boost helps heal our body. Daily meditation releases stress and increases awareness levels. Exercise keeps energy vibration high, and tissues elastic and functional, opening areas of energy blocks in the body. Learning to go beyond conditioned response patterns of thinking and emotions, by reading, self-help groups, EFT or therapy greatly increases energy. Energy treatments such as distance healing, acupuncture, reiki, cranial sacral therapy, chiropractic, or zero balancing will all increase energy by released energetic blocks of various kinds.   

The reason we have low energy is primarily due to our attachment to our personality. We are conditioned creatures of habit, and the more we behave the same, the lower our energy gets over time. Anything we can do to shake up our energy and conditioned patterns will increase our energetic vibration, our awareness and have a healing and transformational side effect. While all the things above will rise our energetic vibration and cause healing to happen, the most effective way to have healing happen is to learn to merge with and become one with the dark energy source itself. The most profound healing happens when our mind is quiet and still, which for most people only happens for a few minutes in a special time of sleep at night. With stillness the source of the problem can be cured, which happens with a reorganization of the mind itself. Once we know this to be true, there only remains our task to become skilled at mediation and learn how to quiet the mind on demand on a daily basis. When we detach from our mind, by not using our mind-voice to animate our personality, then our energy body can freely be reorganized in the mind, body, and profound healing happens. Use of energy by the person as 'personality' is normally a 24/7 use of energy and not known by many is how much energy is needed to activate and animate the personality. When you learn how to turn this animation off, a huge energy gain is returned, healing accelerates as well as increased level of self-realization.

We all have the Potential to be healers

The dark energy is everywhere and inside everyone, everyone has access to it and has the potential to be a healer. I would go so far as to say every human will eventually become a healer, because self-healing is a necessary step to reach further steps in evolution. Everything is energy, humans are energy beings and all problems can be corrected energetically. The roots of human problems are attachment to material forms, or the visible world, which has the inherent problem to hide or veil our energetic reality. Our main physical attachment is to our ability to self-reflect by using our mind and then reacting emotionally from what we are thinking. This creates an illusion of an activated physical entity, or 'personality'. It is this illusion we generate with use of our mind and emotions that we are primarily attached. The longer we stay attached to generation and interaction with this illusion, the sicker we become. Ultimately, only an individual has the power to stop the habit of using their mind-voice to activate the personality, by using their will power, focus and skills of concentration to withdraw energy away from using the mind in this way. The more an individual practices doing this, the more mental clarity, emotional calmness, increased vitality and awareness they will develop. Eventually the growing force will be strong enough in each person, that they will gladly accept the challenge to heal themselves and will do whatever it takes to fully heal.

When you are first starting your healing journey, it can be a wise decision to get help from someone who has already healed themselves. These people have an abundance of information on healing and self-transformation, so you do not have to reinvent the wheel. They can be a great catalyst for your healing or spiritual awakening when you are first starting as their energetic vibration is much higher than most.

Distance Healing is a Natural Therapy

Energy healing is an effective therapy for any physical, mental, emotional or spiritual condition. Energy healing can easily be combined with conventional therapies with no negative side effects and addresses healing of the root cause of the issue. Energy healing is actually done by your own internal healer, which has a wisdom we cannot fathom. Energy healing thus works in a natural order, where your healer determines how to use the boost in energy to heal what is most important for your survival. As an energy healer you don't need to direct the energy in any particular way, you can trust that the internal healer knows perfectly how to heal the person and what is needed to be healed in which order. Having observed many healing processes, it is natural that your body will work first to clean out toxins and congestions in the lymph and organs and then to activate energy centers on the spine known as chakras, as this is the quickest way to ramp up your own energetic vibration. Cleansing nearly always happens first and is a good thing, because in later healings it is necessary to have an open functioning and strong elimination system to remove larger amounts of toxins.

Maintain Healthy Energy Balance

In our stressful times and increasingly toxic world, it is very important that people incorporate some aspect of energy healing into their daily lives. It is important just like brushing your teeth to prevent cavities, to do some healing activity each day to maintain mental clarity, emotional stability, vibrant health and awareness. The basics of energy healing is healing happens when the mind is quiet, so finding a way each day to settle the mind is the most important thing you can practice. The proven and age-old practice of sitting meditation is one of the most effective things to learn and do. With this practice, you learn how to turn off the mind-voice and deactivate animation of the personality. In the space you achieve quiet mind by doing this, your energy blocks will heal. Each second of quiet mind is very precious and there is great healing potential in even a second. Energy moves very fast, so a second can be a long time. As you practice, your ability to sustain quiet mind will increase, as well your awareness level, so each day you do it you start out stronger than the day before. Another effective tool is learning how to do energy healing and doing it daily. If you continue like this, you will fully heal yourself of all problems and then you will be in a great position to help others heal.

How does distance healing work?

In reality there is actually no distance between yourself and another person, we are connected though the ever present pool of universal dark energy. It is only in the visual and perceptual world that the world seems solid and we get the sense of being separated objects in time and space. Dark energy fills all spaces and connects us all as described above. Distance healing works just like an in-person healing with a few minor differences.

Distant energy healing happens by entrainment. From physics, we know that every thing vibrates. From Newton's Laws of motion we know when two objects meet each other, the vibrations of the two objects will synchronize with each other. The object with higher vibration will slow down and the object with slower vibration will speed up, until the two synchronize with each other and 'meet' to establish 'a line of communication'. This process of synchronization known as entrainment is a main reason why energy healing works. During entrainment as vibrations speed up and slow down, it causes vibration in all the tissues of the body, which flows through the muscles and does 'work' to open and heal areas of blocked energy. The synchronization process only takes a few minutes, and after this the vibration in both objects starts to accelerate from their synchronized 'meeting point'. The vibration in both objects will continue to increase, as long as the objects stay in contact with each other. This is done in a distance healing by maintaining focus and in person by lying on of hands. Increasing vibration means healing or transformation is happening in both objects, as it is removing stagnant flows of energy to be able to 'raise' the vibration to a higher level.

These energy blocks are like a line that runs through body and mind, so the entire line is opened from mind to body. As the vibration increases, it shakes people out of their conditioned habit of using their energy to animate their personality. In short, people receiving an energy healing tend to go quiet in mind and receive a real transformative healing, which cures the root cause of their physical energy block that has the cause in the mind itself. This is what happens during the healing phase of sleep to keep the body maintained, but it is a very short amount of time and is not long enough to heal chronic long-standing conditions. A skilled distance healer has the ability to put a person into a deep state of quiet mind for a long period, thereby giving the persons system a clear shot to cure the root cause of any condition, which exists primarily in the mind. I will tell you a secret. The physical object with the strongest energetic vibration you can entrain to (on earth) is another human being. A distance healer who has healed themselves can greatly increase another person's energetic vibration, because their own vibration is higher than most people. Getting distance healings from such a person can give you a large boost to help you heal the cause of your problem and to elevate your self-realization level.

Distance healing works at the energetic level, which is what makes it a very valuable healing method, because an energetic flow or imbalance is the cause of physical problem. Distance healing works to open energy blocks and reorganize the mind and nervous system, it is like opening up an energy channel that previously had low energy flow. This is the source of the physical problem and when the channel is opened, it allows energy to get to the area causing a healing of the physical problem. The actual healing is done by your own body; it is not done by the healer. The healer is only the catalyst to raise your vibration up high enough to allow the energy reorganization to happen. The physical change is later manifested as healed tissue in the mind and body, and becomes apparent when the cells replenish with new growth. A distance healing therefore can have healing effects that go on for many months afterwards.

How is a Distant Healing Done?

When in contact with a person locally, there is more resistance to being healed. Being physically touched creates reactions and resistance itself. It is hard for a person to fully relax and be in a meditative state while being physically touched. Distance healing can be much stronger than in person energy healing, because a person usually feels very little and if they do feel something, it is pleasant like blissful tingly light energy, which never feels threatening. When there is contact at a distance, there is much less personal resistance thus the body vibration can rise much higher as the person is not diverting any energy to 'protect themselves' and healing is more effective. A second reason why distance healing can be stronger than in person healing is the healer can maintain a deeper state of concentration and state of quiet mind, because there are fewer distractions, resulting in a higher level of vibration, which has more healing potential.

A distance healing is done by the healer first activating his or her own vibration to raise it to a high level to begin the energy healing. Next, the distance healer clearly identifies the being or place they want to energetically connect with. What is needed to establish a connection for distance healing is a clear reference to the person's unique identifying vibration signature. Several things are unique for each person and can be used such as photo, name, geographical location, birth date or an object the person once held. The other thing a distance healer specifies is the time for the distant healing. We need to specify the time we want to work with the person or thing. A distance energy healing can happen in any timeframe simply with the healer's intention because all times exist at the same time, sort of like there exist many parallel universes. Each individual has a unique vibration depending on the timeframe, as every living being is changing each second we are alive. The individual characteristics plus the timeframe and location creates a unique signature vibration, which a distant healer can tune into and connect with. Given the flexibility of the time parameter, distance energy healings can be given for past, present or future times.

Next, the distance healer states their intention for the healing, which is normally a request from the person being healed. This sets an intention, focal point and timeframe for the exchange of healing energy for the distance healing session. At the beginning of a distance energy healing, the healer requests a connection with the person, place or animal using the unique identifiers and requested time and then trusts it is so and then tunes into feeling the energy moving in their own body and enters into a meditative state. The synchronization process of entrainment can be felt as a pulling and pushing force as the connection between the people establishes. It is like the synchronization of a large wave. This is like establishing a physical link or cord between the healer and the other being and only takes a minute or so. It is comparable to lying on of hands when physically present. After the link is established, there are several different ways to give distance healings. What I do is visualize myself as the person I am connected with and give an energy healing to my own body using reiki and acupressure techniques using my intuition as needed. As the distance healing goes on, vibration in both healer and person being healed increases and progresses through a natural cycle. The strongest vibration is generated around the 45-minute mark and energy typically is working strongly at this time in the mind with the most profound healing. After the session is complete, the healer requests that the connection that was established with the person or place be disconnected. 

After A Distance Healing

After a distance healing physical problems are corrected energetically, and later on the physical healing will occur when new cells are grown in the problem area. During a distance healing, some people are very sensitive to the energetic healing and feel much and others are not and feel nothing. You do not have to be able to feel the working energy in a session for it to be effective, it is working whether you feel it or not. Ability to feel the working energy increases with a higher awareness level. After a distant healing people often feel highly energized and refreshed. It is normal not to be able to sleep the first night after a distance healing, as the nervous system is highly energized. Even with a restless sleep, people awaken in the morning feeling very rested.

What qualities should I look for in a skilled distance healer?

A skilled distance healer should state that they have healed themselves and are continuing to work with their healing. Healing is not a one-time event and must be maintained like the good habit of brushing our teeth each day to prevent cavities. A healer that meditates and gives frequent energy healings will be maintaining a strong vibration. The distance healer should have the ability to build up a sufficient force in the body at the start or raise their vibration to a concentrated level. They should have the ability to quiet their mind and maintain steady focus for a sustained period of at least one hour. Distance healing can be very effective for healing all kinds of problems such as headaches, colds, helping people recover from operations or traumatic events, preventing illness, boost energy when facing stressful events, healing past events, healing pets and healing any kind of mental, emotional or physical problem. It is also very effective to increase self-awareness level so distance healing is a type of shaktipat and useful for any spiritual seeker to increase their awareness level. Every day distance healing is becoming more widely accepted into mainstream viewpoints about its effectiveness as more people experience it's benefits. Energy healing is a skill I encourage everyone to sample, learn, explore, and bring into their daily life for maintaining vibrant health and acute awareness.

Is it possible our eyes deceive us?

Both philosophically & spiritually, is it possible our eyes deceive us?

Deception happens from the mind not the eyes. Like another said: the eyes are neutral, providing data. What happens is people think they are seeing, but what they are actually doing is engaging in a kind of internal dialog with the raw data they have received through their senses. It's a lot like the dreaming which happens in the night. We engage in thinking and generate feelings according to that from the images, and weave a story around all that we view in the recorded images. We have great capability to recall recorded images from our extensive memory banks, and what we do that deceives us is interact with these memories, like it's real time, but in fact, all is just memory and all is in the past.

This activity of being engaged processing the raw data, and coming to conclusions about it via our cognitive processes, is also what makes us blind to what is going on right now. This is because our attention is withdrawn from the outside world and turned inside, to process all that data in this way. The deception happens here, in weaving the story and making our conclusions, judgments, etc., which we do with our thinking. The more we believe what we think is true and that our conclusions are truth, the more we are deceived. The more emotion we can generate with the undertone of our thoughts the more it feels 'real', thus we fool ourselves that how we see it (the interpreted viewpoint) is in fact reality, when in reality it's only a figment of our imagination.

I wrote a poem which says the same in fewer words: Lost in Inside World

Moving as Being - Letting go of conscious body control

‘Moving as Being’ Standing Meditation
“Letting Go of conscious control of one’s body”

I recommend doing this meditation after ‘spiritual awakening’ as it allows you to practice ‘moving as being’, or letting go of moving yourself using voluntary control of body muscles using one’s mind. If you have not experienced a spiritual awakening yet, don’t let that stop you, if you are drawn to try it – go ahead – one must first and foremost follow one’s heart. Given how this technique is primarily a meditation and is done standing, it is thus powerful and will benefit anyone if they do it. All by itself, it is a powerful meditation, and can further your healing and spiritual awakening process.

The transformation healing process of human beings, is an evolutionary one and we are all within it at different stages, whether it is at level of pre-awakening, spiritual awakening or kundalini transformation, the process has at it’s root that of changing one’s body and mind (nervous system) away from a duality nervous system (split body, left/right brain, reflected world) response to ultimately one of spontaneous, unified, non-reflected and direct reaction to one’s environment. These changes in the body happen gradually over time and by themselves every time when one enters the state of no-mind or deep meditation, as when energy is withdrawn from the brain (one is not using it), it is only then that changes to the organization of the brain itself can be done. These episodes of no-mind activity can happen in other ways besides that of deliberate meditation or spiritual practices. They can happen in a trauma, a shock, by looking at extreme beauty or nature as well as meditation - what they all have in common is a sudden onset of forgetting oneself totally; one’s mind goes totally quiet. In this space one is changed.

Poem: Balance Happens By Itself

Balance Happens By Itself

Balance existed while simply riding the bike
euphoria arose when one forgot oneself
like this, the bike and the rider are one.

Attaching to sensation of euphoria
wanting it to last forever - oneness dissolves
split arises - clinging to material desire.

The rider and the bike no longer as one
the center is lost when clinging to edges
loss of balance - crashing to the ground.

Brushing off the red cheeks and dust
activated reflecting 'story telling' view
rating value of self from outside opinions.

Interpretation of happenings by storyteller
is reflected eyes we all use to view our world.
How you see it, how you think they see it - give these no heed.

No story is more or less valuable than your own
all stories are just a story - neither holds truth
relaxing your need for continuous commentary.

Yet, the euphoria moment remains as a memory
a light under the dark cloud that took it's place
leaving one to wonder how to get back there again.

Looking squarely at happening - seeing your truth
you fell off the bike because you started daydreaming
laughing at your folly, you get back on the bike again.

Practice makes perfect...

Transformation II

Transformation II

A low vibration
can’t see high vibration thought
silence rarely is.
Constant chatter weaves the dream
locking one in world of mind.

Extreme suffering
turning point – asking questions
ear tuned to high pitch.
Listen – intent for answer
vibration rises – Silence.

Changed in an instant
thoughts at times now visible
small hole in veil.
Surrender voice for silence
source alters mind – view expands.

Haiku: Hens burst into Song

Thoughts regarding past lives

Question: "If you could live any time in history, when would you want to have been born and why?

Answer: Thoughts regarding past lives

Lately I've been thinking about past lives, about who I might have been, in what shoes I walked and what might be my purpose this time around. While I don't have answers to this right now, I do have a more general idea about past lives. Lately I recognized that I have always been around, that what I was experiencing right now was only a momentary viewpoint. When I ask “Who Am I?” then I don't feel like anybody in particular, instead I feel like I've been everybody. I feel like I've lived continuous lives and have been present in every point in the past history of this planet. My life feels to me like just one viewpoint of every life that has ever existed.

Some people ask if you could choose a time in history to go back to, what would that be, or if you could go into the future at what time would you like to go. I see that I have zero desire to go back into the past, as I realize I've already been there. I have zero desire to look into the future, because I know it hasn't happened yet, and what I might see would only be a projection coming out the current trend.

I feel content to just live this life and experience it as fully as possible. Looking at it this way, I see all the life forms as being a manifestation of ONE, but all simply having a different perspective about it. Seeing things this way, then the uniqueness that I sometimes feel as myself, disappears and I no longer feel significant. It also gives me another way to look at the current happenings.

When I see how much suffering is going on today, and I hear talk about people not wanting to bring children into the world today, I can understand why they feel like that. But also I see that this world today of growing suffering, misery and sickness is also that which is provoking all life forms into more rapid transformation - so I see there is also a sense behind it. It follows that anyone born today will face difficulty and challenges much greater than in the past, but also because we've experienced all this past before, we are already prepared and ready to face these kinds of challenges, as challenge is what helps us to evolve. I see that these dark days are having the affect to further the growing process of all. As we have all been here numerous times before, and collectively have experiences coming out of all phases of human history, then I see that we are just here again, participating together in the current happening, and this is what we should embrace - the life we have here right now and being participants in our co-existence.

What is Personality and How to Go Beyond it?

What is Personality and How can we go Beyond it?

Dialog with Betsy & BeiYin

BeiYin: What is personality? Is personality an illusion?

Betsy: personality is due to the organization of the current human brain/body, so it produces an inside reflected view or inner sensing of all that we encounter through our senses. We say its illusion because we come to find out that what is reflected inside, we identify with as ourselves, as 'me' and eventually come to find out that this reflection is not us, but rather due to internal mirroring neurons, or sensing capabilities of the brain. At this moment, then this structure of organization of our brains, has served its purpose, to encounter our true essence or the creator of the reflected image. At this point of self-knowledge then can come the breaking down and reorganization of this structure in the brain's nervous system - to eliminate the reflecting organization of the brain, but this rewiring only happens by a process of non-doing, with needs no intention by you, this non-doing is time spent in the state of meditation. The doing is done by making avail of the energy you were holding in 'static form of personality' (conditioned aspects) and transforming it into a new structure, which results in a healing or metamorphosis or reorganization of the mirror into direct sensing and response.

BeiYin: The tendency to survive is inbuilt for all animals. In humans, we see this instinct morphing in complexity, as one uses one’s mind to conjure up infinitely varied ways to defend one’s system.

Betsy: yes, the problem being humans are identified with the nervous system structure itself, which holds patterns of using energy in certain ways, with the old habit to try to survive and keep oneself intact. Thus one holds energy in certain forms, mostly due to beliefs, and finds other ways to do the same when old ways no longer work. The only way out of this game is to spend time in non-doing (deep meditation) with no concept. You will know if it's working, if you are doing non-doing right, if you are healing/changing in profound ways, which can't be pretended or imagined.

BeiYin: 'Personality' starts when consciousness is developed enough that the individual is self aware and this probably starts with the development of senses and their reflection caused by reactions of the system, then realized as body sensations, emotions and thoughts. In this phase there exists no observer separated from the observed, the consciousness exists only through reactions within the system and - there is a total identification with these reactions. Reactions are felt as "I" and out of this the individual gains one's feeling of existence, being limited to body sensations, emotions and thoughts - forming one's 'personality'.

Betsy: Good description of how it comes about. I would add that how one feels oneself as "I" is appropriate for that person’s state of evolution. So one feels as me whether one is identified with one's reflection of not, one is always 'me' having a journey and each day one is different - so that's the constant factor. What is missing here is that one's body organization limits what what can receive. So when one is sick, then one notices one's awareness is reduced and might then trip on a wire around a pallet. The lower one's awareness the less one can receive, and the harder it is to be meditative. The idea that one can access being while in body without being limited by the health of energy flows going through is false. One’s body reflects one's realization, as it is with all forms, energy=matter and matter= energy. People think they can miraculously heal without having to go through pain as the tissues change and to do something to get it done, that isuntil they actually go through the healing process, and then realize that body is part of their reality.

BeiYin: Being aware of one's existence is the beginning of consciousness in a 'higher life form', but of course this doesn't mean that evolution ends here. It is a beginning, although still primitive, like we are observing on planet Earth, where very few humans are capable to go beyond this basic step.

Betsy: Being aware of one's existence is probably the biggest trap that keeps humans from taking further steps in evolution. They think they've arrived, and there is nothing more to do. Many people have taken this basic step, but not too many go further that it. There are levels to one's ability to be aware in daily life. So one decides to be aware in a moment where one feels awareness is more necessary or prudent to do. Then one starts to meditate. The longer one stays like this' just being aware', and then one's bodily vibration rises. As long as one can hold like this, then the vibration will keep accelerating. The higher the vibration, the more one can see/receive and the more spontaneous/intuitive one can respond to whatever one needs to. Because one can do this at will, then one feels that one is aware, and why one gets confirmation and also why one doesn't feel a need to do more. Yet what one doesn’t know is that there are levels above one's current capability.

BeiYin: planet Earth is still in it's beginning of evolution of consciousness, there is no doubt when one looks at the reality of humanity: War, fighting all over the planet, growing of systems by swallowing others, many millions of humans are starving and suffering not even having the minimum means to survive, while others live in abundance on the costs of others. Then there are millions with 'incurable' diseases, because the established systems are purely materialistic, representing the still primitive state of consciousness. To say it clearly: 'Personality' is NOT something bad or negative, it is a step in evolution, although it seems that humanity is stuck on this step and has difficulties to progress, what could have as a result that humanity is destroying itself - many signs point to this.

Betsy: it all depends on how you want to look at it, is the cup 1/2 full or 1/2 empty? As an old form breaks down, then it starts to crack and weaken and one can see this as what's happening all over the planet from all sides, of environment, weather, people, resources, etc. I think the majority of people have big egos today, having accumulated enough energy in form through experiences. So saying, they are rigid and full of energy in static form which is what makes a big ego, thus they have sufficient energy 'stored' to fuel the transformation into being or wellness and the possibility that it is released in parts comes more near the worse it gets physically outside. So I see all as well, a part of nature and to be expected.

BeiYin: But as all systems have the inbuilt urge to survive, the same with the systems on a more complex level, so the planet Earth might defend itself, supported by the next higher system the 'Sun'.

Betsy: you are right the earth will react, but also I see it not so distinct. What I see are periods of repeating growing cycles on earth, as can be seen from evidence of previous ice ages. So when reaching the end of a cycle, then there is the highest evolutionary form, which is stressed to transform, which is human. The sun also as it ages is increasing it's frequency or pulse over time, so all forms are being subject to higher vibrations, which also serve to shake us up more and make us sick. We either go with the flow or resist, so the choice is ours in the end.

BeiYin: What happens when the human system gets stuck on the step of having build up one's 'personality' - even up to a highly sophisticated state?

Betsy: when one is stuck, then one won't survive, one will get sicker, until one is forced to look at it and recognize the reality, that one is not transforming, but rather holding onto keeping oneself as one sees oneself. There’s not much you can do about somebody being stuck in high sophistication, just let nature take it's course. When they get sick enough, then that's the opportunity for them to take a closer look, if they can't do that then they will have to wait to the next lifetime and have another round of experiences. All is good.

BeiYin: Then the inbuilt tendency shows up and this is the longing and urge to overcome limitations and boundaries. If this need in one's growing process is suppressed by the other tendency of the system to hold oneself together, then the stuck system is cracked up by happenings from the outside and/or from the inside like disease on one or more levels: Body, emotions and mind. If these are treated with chemicals, then there can't be any 'healing' (which is a natural part of the evolutionary growing process), but by treating only the material aspects the system stays stuck and can only be 'cracked' by its death.

Betsy: right, I think I said that above in other words. I see the disease itself as part of the healing process, so all treatments that we try to do to 'heal ourselves' interfere with the higher wisdom of the bodies way to heal itself. To distinguish states in body of health versus being sick is hard to define, I see all as one process. Sickness / symptoms are signs of healing and should not be interfered with. So to not interfere is as simple as being meditative as much as possible, trusting this is enough and allowing one's healer 'time' to do what is necessary. Yet, simply doing a non-doing for humans to heal themselves is nearly an impossible request. If they've advanced far enough then they want to take credit for having healed themselves, and do all kinds of treatments, supplements, exercises, etc. then when they get a result, they say: I did it, all is vanity for humans. Probably all the treatments were unnecessary, just for confirmation, and the actual healing if it happened was due to having spent enough time spend in meditation, nothing more. Okay, all treatments if better than one's normal operating state will rise one's energy, so they can all help 'our healer' do it's job. But the most effective way to rise one's energy is simply to do effective meditation

BeiYin: In one's individual growing process there might come the moment when the 'personality' has grown to such an extent that all gained and collected properties don’t give satisfaction anymore. After turning around oneself again and again, the question might arise, what is the sense of all this? Also it might happen, that wishes and desires are not being fulfilled because of daily reality and then frustration is accumulating up to the moment when emotional reactions are causing disease: Depression, stress and distortion.

Betsy: then one realizes that one is doing all these things, and one still feels lousy, one is not getting better doing things in the way one is used to doing them. At that moment one simply gives up trying and when one does, one goes quiet, and it is s just this 'surrender' that starts or restarts the healing process. For example, cancer can be a wake up call, to ‘give up’; when one's physical life is truly threatened.

BeiYin: The strong 'personality' is shattered and comes near to collapse. But as there were many different concepts integrated in one’s personality, so also those of 'spirituality' with images of worlds beyond daily reality. This will be the moment when the individual needs those concepts to survive and it might serve and help for some more time.

Betsy: Energy held in form as personality is very complex and has many layers built up over many lifetimes. One can't release it all at once, it is released bit by bit, and each time a bit is released it's converted into a small part of new nervous system. Thus it's a biological process and happens as metamorphosis' the old energy taken from previously being held in form, being used to build the new form. Releasing of personality also echoes the healing process, it happens in reverse order of how things were accumulated, the newest thing you added on, or the last disease you see is healed first, and so it goes down to the deepest level of cause. The more one heals, the deeper levels one can heal, and as higher levels of vibration in body are needed to heal deeper aspects such as are buried in fetal imprinting, bone alignment and DNA inherited and ancestral aspects. One can't let go of oneself/clinging totally all at once; one has to slowly let go of all that previously defined oneself, bit by bit. Physiologically it's impossible, your nervous system can't transform that fast. The process will stop whenever one won't let go of a belief, and one can go into reverse awareness and reverse health, if one won't let one's body heal/transform. So if one is playing a mind game with oneself, a sure sign is that one's health is not improving, one's awareness is not rising. The body doesn't lie (one's realized aspect), but listening to what we tell ourselves, is certainly not to be trusted.

BeiYin: Given how one’s realization exists conceptually, this image can't fill the upcoming void. The disturbed individual tries all kind of techniques to gain back one's balance: Meditation, Sun gazing, yoga, Tai Chi, psychotherapy, prayer, etc. And in fact it helps: The rigid structure of personality is loosening up, is melting into new and unknown fields of being. Irrational influences find their way into the individual’s perception, like intuition and self-expression, which has as source something not existing in one’s personality.

Betsy: meditation can be done to try to gain something or not. If one is not done trying to gain for oneself, then all is used to keep one intact. But doing these kinds of things, it can certainly back-fire, so good... either way, when one gains insight into ways one is staying the same, then these are what allow one to take further steps, to not do that anymore and then be open to find out another way 'one is fooling oneself'. Confirmation one is on the right track eventually comes in a different form, beyond anything one can think of, it's direct and quite amazing.

BeiYin: Slowly the measurements of values are changing. What seemed to be important before is less significant and is not needed anymore to give satisfaction, because new more subtle possibilities are discovered.

Betsy: as we change our whole perspective changes, each time we change this happens and we slowly get used to a life where daily change becomes part of our reality. Living is then a joy, as one isn't clinging to judgments, problems and negativity, one is healthy, free from pain and resistance to what is, and enjoys life tremendously. I speak of a state of full healing, of which I am not there yet, but each day I see I am less reactive,happier and enjoy simple things more.

BeiYin: Before, there has never existed real 'openness' because the person had allowed only influences that gave self-confirmation and enriched one’s established self-image. But now there is an opening of the system and one is open to receive even unknown influences. The individual starts to be capable to observe one's reactions and is not that much identified with them, with this being able to discover where the reactions are coming from and what has caused them. This then gives them possibility to make decisions, recognizing that their old behavior is worn out and belonging to the history of their personality. At this point, the horizon of awareness widens and separating boundaries are melting away. One might have the first time experience that ‘real communication' is possible because there is less need to defend one's mental and emotional property.

Betsy: yes, but still it's a long process, and there will be much tears and pain along the way, to come to a point of experiencing this daily, thus also why so many quit doing it. People have their memories of times like this and feeling the exhilaration so it's like a beacon in the dark, to wonder how come they don't feel like that all the time or today? When they realize they are indeed dark rather than light most of the time, then they come back to doing what worked in the beginning to get results. Giving up habits is hard to do, and it takes many efforts to set new ones. But mostly people don't heal because they are pain avoidant. Pain itself is the sign that one is healing, and exactly that which people want to eliminate. To continue to heal one needs to accept pain and know it to be part of the healing process, then one is not resistant to change and can learn to not identify with ‘this feeling’ of healing as negative and thus create the ideal conditions for accelerated healing.

BeiYin: All this is due to the fact that 'personality' (the illusion of existence through being identified with one's reactions and one's properties), is fading away and is being transformed into a kind of existence, which is independent of one’s body, one's emotions and one's mind. Yes, this is in fact possible, and it’s not like before where being-ness only existed through concepts, dreams, images and ideas.

Betsy: one illusion is replaced with another illusion. While in body there is no existence independent of one's body, the two are one. When you look at a cat, you know its nature, the same as with a rock. Humans are no different, if one is aware one can see it in the face/body, and there are different levels of awareness in bodies. When you let go on clinging, energy is released, this energy rises your awareness rises, your body changes, as your body changes, your senses change, as your senses change, you can sense more/differently, your awareness rises, your perception changes.

Question: How can there exist something when I'm not able to experience it with my senses and being able to understand it using the capacity of my mind? Whatever there might exist, it doesn't exist for me as long as there is no proof.

Betsy: You don't need proof of some 'phantom' god-like image like this, as its illusion anyway; energy needs matter to transport itself. You will get direct proof by healing, by seeing your body heal, and by noticing your perceptive abilities expand/change, intuition will pick up, what you can sense will be more fine, etc.

BeiYin: Talking about all this doesn’t have much practical sense because whatever is said or written, will go into the pool of one’s concepts and knowing, or if it is unknown it will be rejected using one's arsenal of arguments. So what might be a creative way to point out the same in a way that can be more widely received?

Betsy: Written information gives possibilities or other horizons, so it can raise questions in the reader and make them wonder. Yet, we know that while identified with one’s thinking, then all concepts and ideas are collected as ‘more knowledge’, which serves to strengthen the existing state: being identified with mind and personality – or of one’s reactive self. With that said, I think the only way is for people to prove it to themselves, which needs action and a good way to measure the effect of their action. I would suggest people start by doing the meditation or healing method of one’s choice twice per day, as we know this is the main way that ‘steps in awareness’ have been achieved. , But it would be really helpful if we could measure changes to the system with scientific instruments, which would take the guess work or ‘fooling oneself aspect’ out of the equation. As it is there are many who have meditated daily for many years, and are still stuck in their identification with reactive aspects of themselves, so it should be a warning that even meditation can be used to give self-confirmation for oneself. It is amazing to see that today, many who have awakened are still stuck with being identified with their self-image, and mostly this is because they have adopted a grander spiritual image. Yet, there is a known fact, that as awareness goes up, one’s bodily vibration also goes up, as one becomes less dense as matter and grows towards an energy body with an expanded and finer nervous system. To keep people on track, a simple tool that could measure muscle charge or known brain wave patterns that indicate increased vibration, would be a great feedback tool to let people know their meditation is being done effectively and they are doing it right.

Can we prevent death, disease, and old age?

Can we prevent death, disease, and old age?
Comment: "We human beings have progressed a lot, we have come a long way from the stone age to the present, yet still we are to go a long way. Personally, I do not think that we have any chance of conquering the above three that is death, disease and old age."

I used to think that we couldn't, and then when something happened to me in the last two years, I started to think we could go beyond death, disease and old age.A brief history: I was meditating and working towards what might be known as 'enlightenment' for the last 15 years. Around 10 years ago I had a spiritual awakening, then after this there were steps I went through having to do with the intellect which each time would raise my awareness. Around menopause another step came that had to do with the way we respond with our emotional imprint laid down from infancy. Then after this I ramped up my work on meditation and a few years after that, there started a profound change in my physical body. Mostly this hasall been changes to the nervous system, or so I presume. I think it's a change to the nervous system, because I feel a tingly vibration in the muscles and often there are symptoms of tones in the ear and flashes of light in my head. The most interesting is that my whole skeleton is being realigned, with a kind of stretching that is done spontaneously.

When I was born I had a birth defect in the skull, which affected all the joints on the right side of my body: the TMJ, the shoulder, elbow, hip and knee. All of these joints would pop out of the joint and sort of dislocate. It seemed to just be a fluke all my life, didn't really bother me, I was athletic, etc. This is a congenital birth defect, and I can report this is nearly totally healed, my skeleton is almost straight -- still a bit left to go. This stretching that's been going on for the last two years, has loosened the sutures of the sacrum/hip and also the sutures of the bones in the cranium.

I know you won't believe this, but it's like my whole body is becoming elastic, as the fascia sheet covering all the body becomes pliable. It's like all the connections between every bone have been stretched in every direction, to remove all the cricks, tight ligaments, or restrictions of range of movement in every section of my body. The work I am doing is very much like going into a physical therapy or rehabilitation process. It's hard work, just like that to get a broken hip back to being normal. It takes time, to restore the body to the vitality of one's youth is not something that happens overnight. So far it's been three years for me doing these stretches. Many things in my body have been healed as this process goes on, I have no doubt that everything that was a problem will be totally fixed.

I don't get sick anymore, I feel more energetic each day, and my energy is soaring. One sense I get from this is that I am going in reverse, meaning I'm getting younger. Okay, it's not important for me that someone believes me that this goes on with me. Just I put this out there as a kind of precursor to tell those who truly are asking this question, that might very well be possible. I have been taking notes for each day of this amazing experience, and try to just record the facts, hoping that someday these notes are useful for others to determine what is the biological and physical reasons for this remaking of my body. From my observations I understand that in the human brain, there is the capability to self-reflect, and this is what we know as 'personality'. Yet, this structure is an intermediate step in our evolution as humans. When one meditates then what one is doing is basically withdrawing energy away from this structure, one becomes the observer of one's reflection. Each time one meditates, this structure is slowly broken down and as energy is released from ‘the store of personality’, this released energy is used to make a change in the brain (central nervous system). Eventually after enough changes are made to the CNS, it sets off a more profound change to the CNS, sort of like a domino effect.

Brain researchers are finding out today that the brain has a lot more plasticity, or ability to change itself, then we previously thought. I just saw a show and they said one could possibly live longer, just by stimulating our brains more. It's our conditioning: which is like learning something early and then just repeating that over and over all one's life, that creates ruts/tracks in the brain, which reduce plasticity and eventually cause problems such as disease in the body and aging of the brain, and then we see acquired disease, dementia, Alzheimer’s, etc. They already know this doesn't have to be. Yet, they think that to go beyond it, one way is to just learn new things, to push one's limits and go into unknown fields. This is okay, but I know there is a better way to increase brain plasticity and that is to break down the structure that is conditioning itself, and that is personality: all those learned habits and characteristics which we think are us. One will get the maximum brain plasticity, not by putting in another track or more tracks, but rather by taking out all the tracks.Well, I hope this stimulates somebody to think differently about the possibilities. We are only at the beginning to understand about the brain, aging and disease, yet I see science from all fields is coming closer to find out about the role 'personality' and how our life energy as soul is the main factor that limits our possibilities. Spirituality and science are coming closer together.

Poem: What’s it like to be aware and how does it come about?

What's it like to be aware and how does it come about?

There is no internal chatter

thinking is totally silent

knowing is instant and direct.

There is no emotion

one’s body is totally relaxed

filled with blissful tingling.

Sound has no formed edges

rather you hear all at once

extending to far reaches of cosmos.

Sight has no delineation

ones sees interacting changing shapes

expanding into distant horizons.

Touch has no barriers

vibrations blend and bodies melt

the two are merged as one.

Ones life IS transformation

spontaneously adapting to the new

no resistance, no pain, no disease, no death.

One’s body no longer confines

one can travel to far spaces

and be everywhere at once.

Upon awakening “I think therefore I am.”

is replaced with “I AM when I don’t think.”

these are changed perspectives and neither is truth.

Believing you are awake ends your evolution.

You confirm your belief by ability to willfully

focus attention when desired – which is merely meditation.

Thousands of hours of meditation will be needed

which will slowly distinguish the mirror

transforming oneself into invisible being.

Then there will be no need to stand firm

focusing intently to manifest ones energy

into one’s vibrational concept of being.

Actually, while ‘being’ it’s not possible

to ‘stand firm and observe clouds’ as

when aware there are no clouds to observe.

One no longer seeks proof that one is aware

based on what one observes and how one reacts

when one is always one with one, the meditation is over.

Poem: Question What you can See

Question what you can see.

Question what you can SEE
inside and outside of yourself.
Senses make the unseen tangible and visible.
Thought is visible consciousness
tracing the passage of your invisible self.

Asking ‘Who Am I?’ is a good start
The question makes you momentarily visible
but then one might wonder: “Who is it that’s asking?”
Reflecting is process of seeking the source,
and will continue until the seeker is found.

Consciousness and what is known
is always past-tense.
You are not inside of consciousness as
Nothing can contain you.
Fluid Spirit has no boundaries.

Moments of Being one with oneself
the universe opens in all directions
but limitless boundary can’t be sustained.
Coming back to ground and daily life
Continuing on with one’s daily meditation.

Ecstatic experience of bliss only happens
when one is completely quiet without a notion of self.
With regular practice, blissful moments lengthen
a new proof confirming that nothing is ever lost:
each time we surrender ‘our life’ - we are given ‘new life’.
