    Random Thoughts 8-04-09

    There are many levels of reality. For the longest time, like the most of us, I could only perceive

    but one. And even in that one, that which we might have called spiritual is not what it was

    presumed to be, but only a manufactured perception of what we desire broader dimensions of

    reality to be. A fabricated illusion hopefully sufficient enough to contain and hold all that we

    find to be the mystery that transcends our one common material plane of existence. But confined

    as we are to the limitations of the material, perception can only be perceived as theory or

    speculation. Not that this is true for all, but is a common experience of all. Some, and not

    necessarily those who are the most imaginative or vocal, are endowed, by whatever source it

    may be, to see beyond the limitations of the material. And some, though anxiously desiring to

    see that which is the unseen, will never enter into the realms of perception transcendent to time

    and space, as their material mental capacities are so centered on the egoic conceptions held in

    their minds.

    I am an alpha male. But that is a naturalistic designation, deduced through the scientific study

    and observations within the dimension of material reality. But this is only a partial truth. For twoalpha males to coexist a deeper relational experience needs to be realized. To live and function in

    relatively close proximity together, a lower level standard of rules and obligations can be

    established, one may voluntarily regress in their nature and submit to the other, or a higher level

    or dimension of experience can be entertained, entered into and experienced. This is no easy

    task, and depending on the lower level natures of the two may take some relative drastic

    reassessment of what it is to be human in relation to other humans. By human I mean morethan that part of us that is the animal the beast at the top of the food chain. I believe

    regardless of the lower level deficiencies and impediments that may be our material naturethe

    transcendent human nature that does reside in all humanity can surmount these and rise to a

    higher level of existence and relationship. Will we? I mean the human race? I believe it is

    possible. But not as long as we stubbornly try to retain archaic and limited perceptions of truth as

    have been handed down to us and disseminated throughout human conscious thought without

    critically appraising what it is we believe. Change is threatening. And those dominating thelower level arena of commonly held perception will not find rising to higher levels to their

    advantage. Rising to higher levels of being implies an acceptance of egalitarianism that places

    perceived lower level inferiors on an equal level, or is perceived as lowering ones own

    elevated lower level status. Is it any wonder that the unspiritual will persecute the spiritual?Or except a man be born again he cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven?

    Do not confuse these normally spouted Biblical concepts as the same as the usual Evangelical

    Fundamentalist dribble that they have been associated with. There is NO connection But thereis spiritual truth and it is not conventional religious Christian truth. It is truth transcending

    the religious literalism that would button-hole humanity into an empty and dead spiritual illusion,

    designed and propagated to keep the human from experiencing the full potential of thathumanity, and maintains a religious hierarchy and order that serves the political and economic

    masters intent on controlling the masses. Religion equals control Spirituality is freedom. But

    it is not the freedom defined by the managers of the world systems. It is the freedom to be who

    you are regardless of the system that wishes to define, manage and dominate what it is youare.

    We are held captive by our fears. And if our own immediate personal fears should prove to be

    insufficient to cause us to voluntarily acquiesce to the authority that is presumed to safe guard

    our freedom, we can be sure that new reasons to fear will be created and manufactured for us

    in order to manipulate the collective consciousness of humankind and drive us, as the herd, into

    pens and corrals to be counted and made the commodified property of the Wal-Marts and Disney

    Worlds, and the cannon fodder for Halliburton and all the rest.

    My humanity is more than this. And I ask myself How should I then live? I cant goback nor do I want to.
