original growth...

these digital musings used to be referred to as my Daze. the original title was a play on the similarity between the words daze & days. over the last few years i have to come to certain universal realizations. i have become far more aware of my nature than what i previously was. as i increased my level of universal consciousness, i changed the title of the blog. this change is a reflection of the recognition of infinite universal nature as opposed to finite physical being.

consciousness of being physically finite is awareness of being human. consciousness of the infinite nature of the universe is knowledge of god. i have actually recognized my nature as god for quite some time. for a long time i didn't like to use the word because of its capacity for confusion. the word god is quite loaded in today's society because of all the misguided religious manipulation that humans have experienced over the thousands of years of human history.

lately i've returned to the use of the word because i find the need to empower other humans w/the truth. being god does not mean you have all the answers. being god does not mean you can do magic tricks. being god means you are aware of your nature as a universal being. being god means you respect the universe & its ways. being god means you seek & honor the truth above all other things. god is a revolutionary.

why?

because there are humans on this planet who know very well that we are all god, but they will not tell everyone this. they would prefer to keep this information isolated in order to benefit self. these people are quite dangerous. these humans are willing & able to kill to protect this way of life that they perpetuate. the challenge of those of us who recognize our true nature & do not desire to maintain this status quo is to bring light to the truth w/o having the light shaded by darkness. the humans who maintain the grand lie will remove the truthful gods & create intricate stories to cloud the truths that the honorable gods have made available to less aware humans.

these are some of the mind's truths...

make like you have go to heaven to know god...

looking outside to find within...

it is dangerous to seek outside of self that which is needed within. if a human recognizes some missing element of self, the void is essentially a reflection of the gap between the finite & the infinite.

some of us will travel our entire finite journey & never even notice this gap. others notice it & try to hide it or from it. it appears that far more others attempt to fill the recognized gap w/mythology & other unusual creations of the human imagination.

if you don't know what is missing & some other human gives you something in place of it, how do you know the other human isn't trying to manipulate you? what if this other human is aware of the gap & sees you looking, but does not have a desire to help your search? this other human could use their awareness of your gap in self to feed you nonsense. they could manipulate you through ignorance & fear.

there appear to be a great number of humans who experience this type of situation. i noticed this personally growing up as a Christian. when i began to ask questions, the answers i was given by elders were not sufficient. as i've grown older i've learned more & more about my place in the universe. on a large scale some of my discoveries from study have come to be quite disturbing. there are too many people being mislead about the their true nature as members of the universe. humans are not being taught about their nature. most of us have only been taught about our being.

through our being we are subject to much manipulation. our nature is not subject to such things. our nature is infinite. i will state this clearly: our nature is the universe. we are physical manifestations of god. we are not god's children. we are god. the universe is not a group of separate entities. it is a living changing whole. for whatever reason, our finite being perceptions apparently make it rather difficult for many humans to see our existence from this direction.

the implications of this universal truth are obviously quite profound. this is especially the case when it is acknowledged that the basis of universal being is our energy. not our physical shell. ethnicity & gender are not factors for differentiation from this perspective. life energy is...universal nature is...

make like the universe is not we...

germs...

i'm not feeling well. i went to the store the other day & apparently picked up an illness while i was out. i seem to be recovering, but i'm reminded of an interesting docu i caught a few days ago. it's about Indians in the Amazon rainforest & how a road built up into the rainforest affected them. there is a particular part about the Indians being exposed to government officials & then becoming ill w/pneumonia & measles.

there were 700 humans in this particular ethnic group prior to exposure. by the time everyone had died or recovered, there were only 200 humans left. many of the dead were the elders who maintained cultural history. the docu went on to show how missionaries were then brought in to essentially frighten the Indians into following Christianity. the Bible was translated into the indigenous language. this is not harmful in & of itself. the Bible has some great messages for humans w/regard to certain universal truths. the thing that was interesting & quite disturbing was the drawings/images that were used along w/the Bible stories. whoever the artists were, they created some very scary images to give the Indians.

i grew up as a Christian. the images that i grew up w/were not like these at all. why would you find the need to scare a person into believing something? the truth does not require fear. knowledge does not come from being afraid. discovery is the result of fearless exploration. the docu reminded me pretty clearly of 1 of the primary reasons i don't fuck w/religion.

this situation occurred not long ago, beginning in the late '60's early '70's. if you study world history, this type of thing seems to have occurred regularly as a result of European global exploration. to see it still happening in the modern era just goes to show how fucked up the process is.

this is a link to the docu:

mmmm...thoughts...

if i put an h in front of the m's it's the making of a somewhat different idea...

i pay attention to things like this. apparently this is a reflection of my affinity for thinking.

imagine that...actually enjoying thought...

this society is not particularly built to encourage true freedom of thought & the pursuit of truth. there are many illusions of such things, but the actual behavior exhibited by certain members of society across the globe indicate otherwise.

universal truth is the only real truth. humans, in their limited/finite physical being state, can only know so much at a particular time. knowing this makes learning & studying that much more important as an integral part of the growth process of the human animal. the learning process i refer to does not mean the conventional educational system that most humans are subjected to today either.

conventional is a large part of the problem. the conventional system is teaching humans to be followers of the status quo. it is a training program. it is essentially training humans to be sheep &/or automatons. follow the rules. don't think outside the box. do not challenge authority. free thought opposes such ideas. free &/or creative thought has no rules, comes from no box, & generally challenges what is perceived to be authority.

fear is what is most effectively used to discourage an acceptance of truly free thought. what will happen if we begin to accept this kind of thinking? the world will go to hell! chaos will become the order of the day! etc.

this is bullshit!

control = fear = standard ways of thinking.

why is art generally minimized in society? because artists can be dangerous minds. artists are truly creative thinkers. artists are not limited to the thinking processes of the general public who have been purposely taught to limit their ways of filtering their human experience. an artist sees & expresses things from a perspective that those who wish to control the general public may find quite threatening. is it a coincidence that it is difficult to make a living as an artist? is it a coincidence that pursuing artistic careers is seen as frivolous? no & no.

this has been a personal dilemma for me for many years. i am a creative. i have an artistic mind. my immediate family never really encouraged me to be artistic. because of my academic prowess, they always encouraged me to pursue professional, scientific &/or technical careers. while i am intellectually able to do such things, these career options have never really held my interests like creative pursuits.

it's taken me some years to flesh out some of these observations, but the implications are quite fascinating to me.

make like a creative mind is not a threat...

religion is not my decision...

several months back i picked up on an interesting assumption that certain humans make relative to their spiritual connection to the universe. i use the word relative because religion is relative to spirituality. relative, not the same...

there are humans that believe their life situations are determined by their religious affiliation. there is an inherent problem in this line of thinking. it requires the assumption that no affiliation w/a particular religion dooms a human to fail in their endeavors.

this is not at all sensible. there are people who are not at all religious who have achieved high levels of what most humans across the planet would consider success.

make like filling gaps w/mythology works well...

the messenger's plight...

this post may offend the religious. there are essentially 3 reasons why i am not at all concerned.
  1. i am not at all religious
  2. the truth is far more important to me
  3. very few if any humans other than self read these (LOL!)
all jokes aside. the universe has not left the finite members of it out to dry. the infinite is perfection in reality. as finite beings we may not see or comprehend such things, but that does not mean they are not the way they are.

our reality as finite beings is based on our perceptions. our perceptions are generally flawed because of our limited being. what many humans apparently fail to comprehend is that our mind, not to be confused at all w/the physical (finite) brain, is infinite. our mind is the universe. it is our interface w/what is actual reality, as opposed to our perception of reality. this is extremely important in relation to what i am about to express.

1 of the primary reasons i will not likely ever become religious is that religion tends to suggest to humans that the answers can be known in a quantifiable amount. either that or religions teach humans not to ask questions anymore because that is showing a lack of faith. faith is essentially the act of trusting another human's perceptions. why do that? all human perception is faulty. i repeat ALL human perception is faulty. no 1 human has all the answers. no 1 human is capable of having all the answers.

even if you do believe there was a human known as Jesus (or whatever his name would have been in the language of the region at the time), the stories as told in the Bible show that even he did not have all the answers. i personally do not believe the Bible is a book of facts. i have been fascinated by mythology my entire life. the idea that the Bible is a book of such stories is not off at all. what i'm about to point out next makes this even more significant.

the universe has been transmitting messages to us. the universe continues to transmit messages to us. the messages are not coming solely from humans associated w/religions. religion is a human phenomenon. neither the universe nor its messages are such. there are certain humans that are transmitting these messages as best they can, considering their limited being. these people are often referred to as artists &/or creatives. ARTISTS. not religious people. some of them are vocally against religion. some of them will clearly tell you that they are highly spiritual instead of religious. some of them may label themselves as agnostic & atheist. it doesn't much matter. the names & labels are quite irrelevant.

the important thing to focus on w/these humans is their transmission of the messages of the universe. these people are concerned w/the truth of our nature. they have been coming for ages to talk to us. they look at our existence very differently from most other humans. they often talk & act quite different. all this yet they are still human. this means that they are finite. they have flaws. they have foibles, idiosyncrasies, oddities, psychological issues, deficiencies, etc. this is important to note, because there are those who are well aware of the truth that will use these extremely common finite being characteristics to obscure the communication functions of the universally important humans referred to as artists/creatives. those who benefit from being dishonest w/other humans do not want to the truth to become commonly or universally known amongst humans. they will figuratively & literally kill the messengers whenever they can.

keep an ear/eye/mind out for the truth tellers, the artists, the messengers, the prophets. there is no 1. there have been & will continue to be many. comprehend this: M-A-N-Y. why? because the universe is infinite & it takes care of itself. it is in essence perfect. it is quite reasonable to suggest that infinite messages have been transmitted through an infinite number of humans. the problem is not the message transmission to us. the problem is human perception & human function. the problem is the transmission from the human messenger to the other humans. whisper down the lane is the ultimate statement as to why humans fuck up the messages w/great consistency. we are imperfect in a perfect reality.

as to why a perfect would create an imperfect, i cannot personally answer that question. i am human. i have yet to be provided w/that answer in any of the messages that i've received so far in my finite being existence...

navigating the mind field...

apparently i am quite susceptible to distraction. no official designation, but the symptoms are generally looked at & described as ADD/ADHD.

this is not to say as a handicap or an excuse, but to recognize some causal relationship between certain behaviors exhibited & the nature of the thoughts that precede said behaviors.

there at least 3 books written by the same author(s) detailing the characteristics of humans that deal w/such issues.

it truly does help to have some sensible explanation for certain courses of action that i have taken over the years.

it also helps to have an idea of what the issue is so i can make more of an effort to compensate for whatever finite limitation exists through certain changes in behavior & decision making.

to know the enemy is to be more suited to achieve victory.

make like i don't have to focus on being more focused...

reconciling the being w/the nature...

if the mind is infinite & the physical is finite, what is there to stop self from operating in the physical as the infinite?

obviously the limitations of the physical, but what of the travels w/in the mind? what limits the spaces & places of thought movement?

focus...

it is required to render the infinite's creations in finite forms. idea to reality.

w/this i seem to have some issue. maybe more than some. definitely an issue. i feel a whole lot less anxious than i used to since i am aware of this. it is still a problem though. it does me little good to come up w/many ideas if i do not actualize them in the physical for testing.

at times it's like i am moving around too much in my mind. the physical is not able to keep pace w/sufficient regularity. this is difficult to reconcile w/my comprehension of the nature of reality. i do not wish to be less like the universe...less infinite like. why would i strive for such a thing?

focus & balance...

w/o proper focus i am hindered in my efforts to balance my infinite nature w/my finite being.

prioritizing can be a challenge. multi-tasking requires efficient priority designation. a to do list is not useful when it is not prioritized properly. confusion is an additional distraction. 1 does not work well on to do lists when 1 is not focused on priorities.

balance...

such is the apparent challenge of my being in opposition of our nature...

there is significant consolation in being aware of such issues. i am acutely aware of the importance of addressing them...definitely a priority!

make like it is not disturbing to see self all over the place...

PEACE
...be calm...

the worst defeat...

self caused losses are the least tolerable.

speaking for self they would also appear to be the most damaging. the inability to recover properly from negative situations removes the ability to progress toward positive situations.

failure for finite beings is to be expected. finite = limited. limitations lead to faulty judgment. this isn't to suggest that failure is acceptable, it just isn't the end of all being.

the severity of the failure experienced is obviously a factor in considering how the recovery process moves, but no movement at all is a serious issue.

specific failure at 1 point should not result in future failure from incorrectly focusing on prior failure.

failure is best viewed in light of the lessons its experience teaches. w/o these lessons the acts that caused the failure to be experienced are bound to repeat in relation to the inability to absorb the meaning/cause of the failure. from this perspective, the only real failure that ever exists is that of not learning from mistakes made.

all life experience as a finite being serves as learning experience. the more we learn as finite beings, the more closely we can approach our infinite nature. experience is only negative when we do not learn from it. it is unproductive to ignore our lessons & continue on in ignorance w/self defeating behaviors.

speaking on self again, i tend to dwell on certain aspects of failed experiences in ways that are not at all productive.

if i do not change this behavior, i'm going to continue to suffer certain consequences. as w/most things, being aware of this does not necessarily mean a change is going to occur.

i have work to do...

i have to work on recovering more efficiently, notice i did not say hastily, from perceived failures & distractive behaviors exhibited by self & others.

make like having problems w/focus is great for pursuit of goals...

it only comes out if...

what if the washer doesn't work, does it still all come out?

we bought a new washer, but the damn thing doesn't work at all. i plugged it in & it DID NOT come on...

salty...

by the time i figured out the nature of the issue the customer service dept. was well closed.

salty again...

going commando is not exactly something i'm trying to be doing on the daily. guess it's time to bust out the washing board, or hit the laundresmats.

FIZ DI NUCK...

a little venting w/some associated frustration. hopefully this won't be an issue of the major form...

a replacement w/little or no wait or hassle would be quite ideal.

imaginary obstacles...

life is difficult enough w/o creating problems that do not actually exist.

perception will kick your ass if you let it.

assumptions will assassinate your character...

words are of little if any value if they do not reflect the actions that come w/or after them...

today i devised a great plan of action. i did not follow through w/it. this is something that i realize i do too frequently. knowing this & stopping it from happening are 2 entirely different things.
