#4. Spirituality -Expectancy

#4. Spirituality -Expectancy
revised 22 Sept 2011

Intro
I have presented 3 hypotheses thus far:

1. What we hold in our minds manifests in the physical world. What we experience is a result simply of what we hold as true. We get what we believe.

2. A person's consciousness is part of a limitless awareness. We all are in the "mind of God". The person we think we are is connected to this Tao or universal mind and within that we define ourselves as limited to being  a person. But to define limits in the infinite is to have a limitless capacity -as limits can be removed and our full potential can again be realised.
But the Universal Mind or Infinite Awareness is not just a spiritual metaphysical concept:
It is Everything. The trees, the stars the physical world ,any astral planes one fancied one has visited,our dreams, our thoughts ,humanity, the dog and the "Nibbles" the goldfish.
The Universal mind has Everything in it.

I have thus hypothesised we all have an infinite potential

3. 'Spirit is the Law -and that's the only law there is.
That covers my bottom line here.
If one is looking for a boss in the world I suggest you, me and The Infinite are sitting behind the desk.
And also,as I will go on to 'explain' - If one is looking for a boss in this world or any world -look no further than yourself !


An expanded view
Together these can be a bit of a mind bender as one is trying to squeeze this concept into the everyday world to which we have become accustomed.
It's like explaining the 3rd dimension to a 2 dimension audience and indeed myself -I live here too !!

Perhaps if we start at the beginning.
God (You) is saying:

"Let their be light and chocolate and chocolate chip ice cream"
-and lo, it came to pass.
Then what follows ,the entire Creation is Your Dream -God's Dream...populated by people and things.

But it's all You, all Us. 
- ever dreamt you were someone else? and felt what that's like?
That's the idea - God in different points of view as people and trees and whatever experiencing an expanded Creation - 


For myself as one of the 'dream-people'; I wonder if I would want to return to Godhead. It sounds like a blissed out state of inactivity. Perhaps I prefer worrying where my next meal is coming from!!!

Everyone is familiar with the film the Matrix. The physical world certainly when viewed impartially from outside is a very entertaining construct. It's got bodies and jobs and relationships . It's got this linear time going on ,tick,tick,tick where things seem to change with time and there's lots of stuff to get done.

I am sure there lots of realities out there. Some that don't have a lot of time in them -just 'a while' maybe. And some dimensions that don't have bodies that die and some that don't have bodies or time at all. But "The Matrix", the physical universe does seem to offer the a most amazingly fun complexity and probably makes the other universes look like a simple chess game.

So You , You from that start here have created or spawned a big complicated Reality.
It's all a game,entertainment by experiencing a reality from different points of view.

But it is a Matrix, a fabrication, a dream or excercise in imagination existing in Your mind. Everything in it, planets , stars, rocks, plants, humanity and kangeroos is built out of the same thing. Everything is linked -it's the same stuff. This is why we there is telepathy and all the other metaphysical phenomena that seem to occur. To look at a rock is really to see something built out of the same stuff that we are - and also it really is part of us,because we are part of the whole.

In an earlier article I suggested and tried to proof that even the rocks have consciousness - this is another entrance into that idea.

Everything is made from the same stuff - 'God-particles' ...The analogy that is most offered is an ocean of water that has different shapes in it - but it's all just water. Waves in the ocean... Sand castles in the sand.

One has to purge the 'Separateness' of  day to day thinking out from one's mind to get this.
And to do that, it is easiest if one views everything as the You , Good God Almighty, The Creator.


So what are we left with? My feelings on this.
Consider : Expectancy

For me to hold these above conclusions I have worked backwards from my feelings.

I find myself as a creator with all the potential of God Almighty -but I feel I have limited myself to play this game here.

To be honest sometimes I feel that the whole world is my creation and that people are just actors playing out the roles I expect of them. Especially because how I imagine things and the world seem to manifest that way.

Everything I perceive seems to follow my expectation.
When I think ,(think ,think, think) about it things seem to be outside of me.
But when I feel (feeeeel ) things -everything seems either within or under my absolute control.


For myself: you can have your world and I can have mine! - for me this presents no conflict in 'celestial' logic.
You can have your dimension and I can have mine -and they can overlap.
Your 'Postman Pat' can be quiet and mine can be loud. And Postman Pat himself can be sick in bed that day -in his dimension.
It all just co-exists.

I wouldn't be surprised if you could argue with me all day long in my world and simultaneously be sweet as a lamb to me for hours in your world !

..it's conjecture -  but I feeeeel it's more subtle than that - I feel that our individual worlds, our individually experienced realities are closely linked physically but our ideas about them vary.


But your world is your world
Again :- Your world is your world.


If you see the world as one manifestation of co-creation with pollution and long holidays where real people act with independent free will, then so be it. So mote it be.
This is your world. 

This is true for you.
Don't forget : I have argued that our "truth" merely follows our expectation, our beliefs.

We each follow our expectations.
We each mold our world with the concepts and beliefs we hold.


It's totally bonkers isn't it?
The "sky's the limit".


None of this is set in stone - everything I have written here can be a complete load of cobblers for you - believe what you want!
Spirit is the Law, and that's the only law there is.


I love you and chocolate.
Namaste
