The Great Mystery

Each day is a wonder. Infinite amounts of beauty await to be realized, enjoyed and partaken of. We are always first confronted with the negative and by default this seems to control our outlook. We can look through life and be depressed about our finances, relationships or our health. We can look at Google News and become depressed about the perpetual muddle of human affairs, violence and suffering.

The universe is really all good. ALL good.

I know that seems to make no sense. But all the evil and bad in the world are necessary tools for good. Evil and bad only have meaning when one is elevated above them.


1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

The number 3 is not small to the numbers 2 or 1.

However to 4 and up 3 is small and getting smaller all the time.

This is the way evil and bad is to mankind. What is not bad or evil from one perspective and level, becomes evil and more evil as one's perspective and outlook becomes more advanced.

So everything in your life which you now consider "good" - will someday be considered "bad" as you live in ever refined concepts. The further you progress the more you will see today's joys as tomorrows sorrows. This process is not a quick one. It is the opposite. For many things it takes many lifetimes.

How many have hobbies that they obsess about for a number of years only to suddenly discard the whole thing later? Suddenly the time spent on some pursuit, which was formerly viewed positively, now is viewed as intolerable. Kids and adults often feel that way about games they spent countless hours of their lives on. Just the thought of playing the game is repulsive. Yet it is not just addictions that become repulsive, even the everyday environment can become a negative when juxtaposed against one's new environment.

The universe sees everything as good. It understands the duality of all things and realizes that positive or negative become entirely determined by position. As one travels this infinite course, everything one once was becomes evil if one continues to progress. All these things will exert their influence, negatively, to ones present.

Here most fear evil. They "hate" evil! The oxymoronic aspects of such still elude them. They want to destroy evil. They want to punish evildoers. All these emotions are evidence that they do not understand what evil is. The jihadist, the child-beater, the thief, all are learning. To them, their actions are NOT evil. It is impossible to do something you don't somehow justify. So all these folks commit heinous acts and justify them.

Every act that you may commit that you know is "wrong" or "evil" - you will also justify. We all do this until we recognize what we are doing. We must look at our actions closely and realize and identify our justifications and put them under the microscope. Once we dismantle these excuses, we can progress more rapidly. We can move away from the many daily "evils" we partake of. Until we stop justifying them, we do not truly understand them as evil.

Justifications are insidious things and sponsor the state of the world we live in. But before we pass judgment on all these others and their actions, we must first tend to ourselves. We must seek out and address our own actions and when we do this we find we are less concerned with others actions. We often point the finger at others so as not to have to point it at ourselves. Once we point it at ourselves we no longer feel the compulsion to use others' actions as a justification for our own.

So back to the beauty...

Once one sees this process in action, the endless cycle of good turning to evil and turning to good again, we see beauty in ALL things.

Yes poverty, disease and death - all beautiful from a certain position of equilibrium. All the misery and wailing in the world becomes like the hum of a bee going about its daily ritual. It is not truly evil. When it is understood, in totality it ceases to be tragic, pointless or ugly. It becomes like a lesson in a book, or like people building a house - and is part of the beauty of the world which is oft-ignored.

Yes, each day is a wonder. If you wrote down and made a list right now of all the things you feel are wrong with your life, I will take that list - turn it upside down and show you all the things that are RIGHT with your life. Illustrating how each of these is a lesson and a stepping stone to an even more elevated position. You will be able to do this for yourself soon and eventually all will be able to put things in a more infinite perspective.

LOVE.

Love is understanding. How many times do people say they "love" someone when they really mean "you are a comfort and salve for my insecurity."

Millions, yes billions, say they love someone or something and don't know the meaning of the word. Love is not an escape. It is not an end to loneliness. Love is the total and complete understanding of someone. Many people can be married for many years and only have a fraction of understanding about their partner and spouse. A couple can just meet and say it was "Love at first sight", but this, too, is an illusion. We can feel familiarity and comfort around someone. We can find people immensely appealing at first sight - but we cannot truly love them at first sight.

Love in this world is very, very rare. It is the result of many lifetimes of experience and a body of shared adversity, experience and understanding that is enormous. Eventually, all will have some semblance of meaning when they use the word LOVE, but for now the word is one of the most abused words in the English language. Love will not merely be reserved for one's closest family and spouse, but will be more nearly universal - as one accumulates more shared experiences with thousands and yes millions of other souls. Lifetime after lifetime, even our enemies will become our friends - if one keeps progressing. A man like Jesus demonstrated this when he did not judge his persecutors, but forgave them, "for they know not of what they do."

Yet his attitude is that of the normal being on some worlds, it becomes normal not to hold grudges or condemn others - because one does not bias their actions and see only the "evil" in them. One understands this justification process, and how each soul struggles against their own intellect - often losing this struggle and committing acts another would not perform.

Till later...

It is snowing blossoms. The dancing wind races through the trees and rains cherry blossoms on my car. The smell is heady and the small pink blossoms get caught on my windshield wiper as they roll across the windshield and hood before my eyes.

A simply gorgeous girl is walking towards the car. Her long, shapely legs revealed by a short mini-dress tell me that she is not just thin, but healthy and toned. She smiles at me and I smile back. She starts to power-strut and turns the sidewalk into her own personal runway. Nearby men are gaping. She knows it and revels in it, but this performance is for me and she has her eyes locked with mine.

I laugh. Cynthee is hot and fun.

"Hey stranger, how about a lift?"

"I'm not sure...you look a bit dangerous."

"Me? Dangerous? Whatever gave you such an impression?"

"You look like you break mens hearts."

"Oh, but then we're equally matched. For you are a thief of hearts."

"Get in."

Cynthee folds up her long legs and adjusts her mini. She pulls out a pair of Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses from her Prada handbag and places them over her eyes. Her hair glistens in the sun and the smell of skin-warmed Tresor wafts gently to my nostrils.

She starts to open up the door again and step out.

"You have to leave? So soon?"

"Yes. This is another dream sequence. You'll be waking up shortly."

"Wait. Don't leave yet, we haven't even talked!"

"Today is an important day. The world will not be the same."

"What does that mean?"

"You know what it means."

"No, I don't! Tell me - please."

"Ok. someone is going to read this blog entry. See over there? That person will read it, and that group all walking over there? They are all real people and will read this blog entry."

"And they are in my dream because...?"

"You figure it out."

"Wait! I can't."

"You can. You're still asleep. But when you wake up, you will know exactly what it means."

Cynthee disappears. The car disappears. The people who were walking all have disappeared and I am alone.

---

I wake up. I haven't a clue as to what the dream girl meant. I think about what she said about the world not being the same after today. Wait YOU are reading this! I recognize you - you were there in the dream! So what's so different about today anyway? Do you know?

As you know, everything is energy. Energy can't be created (no Big Bang creation) and can't be destroyed (no end of the universe). As a result of this law of nature energy just keeps on existing and changing from one form to another.

Time is energy too. All energy travels in cycles. We measure time in units such as years, days, hours, etcetera, but time has many more properties that can be identified. Time and the mass it is intertwined with interlace and are unified. One cannot extract the happenings of this world or any other from time. Time needs to propagate and to propagate it must regenerate. Each instant must be reborn anew - and yet be reborn from the moment before.

When we live our lives we prove this continuity constantly. Each moment is linked to the moment before in thought and action. So too is history reborn.

For each of us, depending upon our pasts, the history is different. But certain cycles often predominate for large groups of people.

A look at the news will give one insight as to the past. Let's look at recent activities:

A) Pandemic outbreak of Mexican Swine Flu.

B) Only weeks earlier a visit by Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to Mexico

C) Mexicans get sick and die, but US variants merely get ill and recover.

D) Discussion and debate of unnecessary torture to extract information.

E) A failing economy.

F) Pirates and ships in the news


Looking at these events and analyzing them the ol' computer comes up with an interesting period in history:

The time of Francisco Pizarro



Pizarro conquered the Incas, searching for gold for his ailing nation. The native population after the conquistadors visit was reduced by some 90 percent after smallpox and measles took their toll on the population with no genetic experience or immunity.

In the conquest of Cuzco, an orgy of looting, torture and mayhem followed in the quest for precious metals to take away.

---

If we look at the recent events, the visits of Hillary and Obama to Mexico and the disease outbreak that follows their visits, combined with the discussion about the morality of torture in the pursuit of information - while working for one's nation - all evidence how history is never really NEW only regenerated in new circumstances and evolved.

Not everyone alive will have been involved, population development clearly precludes such, but
some of the older souls, leaders and such, will have been involved in this little replay of past events.

Now America arrives, to insure peace and prosperity between our nations. The reverse side of the sine-wave often manifests as the energy regenerates and comes back into phase. We talk about arming ships to protect from pirates and hostile natives. The soul-searching of torture comes up and many realize it is immoral. The others say it brought results.

This particular cycle has probably manifested a number of times since it happened and even the original Pizarro period had roots in previous looting. We simply can easier identify certain cycles with periods of which we have more knowledge.

This cycle was a fairly easy one to recognize. The tell-tale signs and bizarre combination of events made it clear. Other cycles are not always so easy to recognize, but if one does recognize them one can look at oneself in the mirror and analyze one's motivations easier. I can look around here and see the deep seated disgust for torture, because it's not really just about waterboarding 2 mass murderers, but the energy has roots in the torturing of innocent foreigners - just to find gold and precious metals to loot. So this indignation has more power than it should, because it has roots in the guilt of living in a nation that tortured natives for treasure.

This is the way one balances past misdeeds. It's very possible many who today despise torture were not so sure back in the days of Pizarro - and vice-versa. When the ships unloaded the gold, the citizens, far removed from the conflicts, merely were happy to have the wealth added to their national coffers.

Just thought folks might like a little insight into the way life works - and how we get chances to make amends for past misdeeds. We are not born with clean slates. We carry all this submerged data with us and when the cycle comes around again, all sorts of emotions, desires and actions are the result.

It is the nature of life to seek equilibrium, the rolling ball of history keeps repeating balancing old events and evolving with new unbalanced ones. For those who are aware of this process, great headway can be made in mastering one's emotional imbalances and moving on to the next challenge - evolving. Infinitely.
