My presentation is entitled “What on Earth is Happening.”
And there is no question mark at the end of that because this is my attempt to explain just that, what on earth is happening on our planet.
And recognizing the fact that researchers often stand on the shoulders of giants, men who have come before them, men and women who have done incredible research and put that out into the world.
world. I dedicate my presentation respectfully to the four individuals that you see here
who are what I call the four horsemen of my personal apocalypse. These are the four men
that were responsible for helping me in awakening myself and in understanding this information.
And that is David Icke up in the upper left there. To the upper right, Michael Tesarian.
On the bottom left, that’s Jordan Maxwell, and perhaps more than any other individual
who has inspired me, the late, great Terrence McKenna there at the bottom right.
So this presentation is respectfully dedicated to these men.
Introduction, truth and lies, questions and answers.
Everything that I’m going to be talking about here today ultimately boils down to one thing.
What is the truth about what is taking place here?
and that’s a big word, that’s a big topic to get into. Who am I to discuss what the truth is? Who
is anyone to discuss what the truth is? Is there a truth? Well, one of the main concepts in my
presentation going forward that I put out there is that there is in fact a truth and it is that
which is. The truth is simply that which is. It is our perceptions of truth that waver from
individual to individual some resonate with it some do not some come into
accordance with truth and some waver radically away from it but the truth is
it’s unwaverable it’s unalterable it’s simply the pure state of being it’s that
which is and it exists it is knowable we can come to know what truth is that is
the spiritual journey. So that’s what this entire presentation is ultimately about, getting
to the truth. Philosophers have often made comments about truth, like William Blake.
He said that truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed. Poet
and author William Blake made that statement. In other words, if you can speak the truth
in a way that it is easily understandable to people, they will recognize it as such.
philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. He said that every truth passes through three stages before
it is recognized. In the first stage, it is ridiculed. In the second, it is opposed. And
in the third, it is regarded as self-evident. George Bataille said that the truth is paradoxical
to the extent of being exactly contrary to the usual perception. Very true statement there.
most people see things often exactly the opposite of how they really are.
And they stay attached to that belief because it’s more comfortable for them.
So truth can often be seen as paradoxical
because it’s exactly the opposite in many cases to the usual perception of most people.
George Orwell said that during times of universal deceit,
telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
and indeed what you’re witnessing is an act of revolution in the times that we live in.
The questions for the entire presentation are as follows.
These are the questions we’ll be really attempting to answer.
Who are we? What is the purpose of human life?
Why do we hold the beliefs that we do about ourselves and the world?
Why do we act the way that we do toward ourselves and others?
What is happening in the world today and why? Why, most importantly.
and finally how can we improve ourselves and by doing so improve the world in
which we live because ultimately I believe that is most people’s goal in
life if they’re a truly self-examined individual they want to improve
themselves and they want to improve the world leave this world a better place
than they found it so these are the greatest questions that humanity has
ever asked of itself and these questions have answers these questions are
answerable the answers are out there the answers are discoverable it’s up to us
to discover the answers to these questions so the enemy of all truth if
you’re on a quest for the truth there are blockages there are there are road
blocks involved and lies and deception come up all the time when one is going
off in search of the truth so we want to understand how that dynamic works in
this process. If there’s anybody who knew a lot about lying and evil, it was this man, Adolf Hitler.
He made this comment about a lie. He said, make the lie big. Make it simple. Keep saying it and
eventually they will believe it. A technique for propaganda. If anyone knew more about lying than
even Hitler, it was this man, the Nazi minister of propaganda during the Third Reich, Paul Josef
Goebbels. He said, the bigger the lie, the more it will be believed. Contrary to what you would
think, you make the lie even bigger, even more extravagant, even more encompassing, and more
people will actually believe that. Which brings me to the concept of the biggest lie. So the biggest
lie that we can ever be sold or that we can ever personally buy is simply the lie that there is no
truth where even if there is it’s undiscoverable so why bother to even go out and search for it
this ties in with the philosophy of moral relativism and it’s a dangerous and slippery
slope when you go down that path because if there is no truth then there is no right or wrong either
so there is a truth it is knowable by us it is our job to find out what the truth is
So if you buy the biggest lie that there’s no truth out there to discover, that it’s all just perception, then you’re headed down a path in which there is no right or wrong either.
And it’s up to anybody to decide what they think is appropriate given any particular situation.
They’re not really making a decision that is born in true conscience.
It’s just what is right for me, I’m going to do.
regardless of the consequences because I don’t believe that there is
actual truth to live in harmony with. So that’s the most dangerous lie of all to
buy and unfortunately most people in the world have bought this lie that there is
no truth and therefore the spiritual journey for them never really begins
because they’re never really striving for something beyond themselves. So it’s
It’s a very important thing to overcome and to get past before you go deeper into this
journey.
You have to believe that truth indeed does exist, otherwise you’re not really actively
searching for it.
So in our search for truth, where do we go for answers?
What sources do we have to go to?
Well most people go to what I call the big four and they are politics, religion, science
and the new age movement.
Each one of these is an ideological system.
It’s an institutionalized system of thought and each one of them differs in various ways
but most people will go to one of these four institutionalized systems in their search
for truth and what I’m going to talk about in my presentation here today will touch upon
all of these institutionalized systems. However, it cannot fit in nicely into any of these
boxes because that’s what they are. They’re boxes for consciousness. They are paradigms.
They’re acceptable ways of looking at the world outside of which it is discouraged to
look outside of. So if you’re looking into any one of these given systems of thought
specifically. You’re not going to find the whole truth encompassed within any
one of these systems of thought because that’s what they are. They’re systems.
They’re boxes. They’re confines, so to speak. And the truth is too big to
be put in a box. It exists outside of any boxes, outside of any limitations. So we
We have to expand our perceptions to look beyond all of the current social and political
and religious paradigms and scientific paradigms in the world if we’re really going to endeavor
to find truth.
So the truth is outside of all of these.
We cannot limit ourselves to any one specific institutionalized thought system if we’re
truly serious in our search for the truth.
So part one, I’m going to start with the solution.
presentation is in three sections part one is the solution part two we examine
the problem and then part three we talk about how to actually apply the solution
to get the desired outcome so I’ll begin with part one the solution and the
solution for the problems that humanity currently faces is indeed a raising of
consciousness consciousness must be raised on a global scale but to do that
the way that that is done is by raising it on an individual scale within each
individual consciousness must be raised and as each individual consciousness is
raised global consciousness is raised but in talking about consciousness and
why this is the solution to all of the problems that humanity faces most people
don’t really understand what consciousness is.
They think of it as simply being physically awake.
Yes, we have physical awake consciousness because we’re awake, we’re alert.
But consciousness is much more than just a state of being physically awake.
So we need a definition for consciousness as we go forward in the presentation.
And I’d like to encapsulate how I feel about consciousness.
This is a quote that is on the oracle at Delphi in Greece.
This is words that are inscribed upon the Delphic oracle.
Heed these words, you who wish to probe the depths of nature.
If you do not find within yourself that which you seek, neither will you find it outside.
If you ignore the wonders of your own house, how do you expect to find other wonders?
in you is hidden the treasure of treasures know thyself and you will know the universe
and the gods so this is one of my favorite quotes because it tells the whole story essentially we
need to know ourselves all knowledge of value ultimately is self-knowledge and this is what
we lack globally we lack this as an entire species and this is why we’re in so much trouble today
This is why we’re in the dark situation that we’re in, because we lack self-knowledge.
We need to understand ourselves and our motivations and our desires and what makes us tick if we’re really going to have any kind of happiness, success, or peace in our lives.
And the ancients understood this, and they encapsulated it perfectly in a statement like that and in the buildings and in the architecture that they put together.
Perhaps they were more connected with consciousness and with their own self-knowledge than we are today.
So this next slide is a dictionary definition of what consciousness is.
An encyclopedia or a dictionary says that consciousness is the characteristics of a being
generally regarded to comprise qualities such as subjectivity, self-awareness, sentience, sapience
and the ability to perceive the relationship between one’s self and one’s environment.
Now that’s an excellent definition of what consciousness is in my estimation, but it’s
a bit complex, there’s a lot of words there, and instead of going into each word and breaking
it down and defining it separately, we can take that as a pretty good definition of what
consciousness is, but for the purposes of this presentation I would like to just simplify
it and take it down to a simpler level. So with that in mind this is the definition of consciousness
that I’m going to use going forward in this presentation. Consciousness is simply the ability
of a being to recognize patterns and meaning with respect to events taking place both within oneself
and in the realm in which the self exists and operates.
In other words, consciousness is the ability to understand information,
understand events that are taking place, the implications of them,
and internal events and information as well as external worldly events and information.
It is the ability to recognize patterns within information.
That’s my definition of consciousness as I’m using it in this presentation.
So we want to keep that in mind as we move forward.
The ancients had different symbols that they used for consciousness and energy.
And this is one of them. This is called the Dao.
Some may know it as the Yin and the Yang.
And this represented the all. Everything.
Because everything is conscious.
Everything is consciousness ultimately. It’s all energy.
and there are different mixtures of different types of energies and the
Taoist philosophy codified this in this symbol the the Tao the yin-yang by a
mixture of two basic polar energies one being light one being dark one being
male one being female they call these the yin and yang now yang is on the left
there and it’s solar it has to do with light the Sun it’s masculine in its
qualities it’s active it’s more analytical and and it’s a dominant
energy it’s more left brain well we’re going to talk about the structure of the
brain later on and it can it can be aggressive it’s it’s it’s dominant it’s
active it’s a male thrusting principle okay the the darker energy yin is
associated with the moon which is up at night okay when it’s dark it’s a feminine
a more feminine or passive energy it relates more with intuition than with
analytical thought or logic it’s more submissive than dominant it’s more
right-brained and it deals with concepts of compassion and nurturing so the
ancients looked at this as these are the qualities that are in all of us not just
men and women it’s not just male or female this masculine and feminine
energy is indwelling in all of us whether we are male or female and we
have to strike a blend a perfect blend or an equilibrium of these two types of
energies male and female yang and yin so what we’re going to talk about later is
how one of these energies is really seemingly dominating the other more in
the modern world another mode or another symbol that the ancients used to explain
what consciousness was is the triangle because they recognized that
consciousness was a threefold aspect within an individual. Basically an
individual expresses their consciousness in three basic ways and all other ways
that they express themselves are offshoots or variants of these three
basic modalities of consciousness. So in the ancient world this was known as the
law of three or the triune aspect of the individual and here’s what they
are our thoughts our emotions and our actions see our thoughts are the creator
of our experience everything that exists has to first exist as a thought to come
into manifestation so our thoughts can be seen as the creator God the creator
of our experience so I have it labeled here the father of the Trinity of
thought emotion and action and thoughts arise from what we call mind the second
part is our emotions this is the yin aspect of consciousness okay so the
thoughts are the the holistic quality it’s the essence emotions are the yin
aspect this is the feminine aspect of consciousness this is the spirit in
which we do things our emotions so this is the sacred feminine we’re the mother
of the Trinity the Holy Spirit if you will okay this is the internalized
expression of our consciousness how we feel and then there’s the male aspect
what we do so we have a thought we feel a certain way about it and then we take
action in the world in relation to our thoughts and emotions so our actions are
the third aspect of our consciousness. And we perform actions with the body. And since it’s a
male principle, this is the yang energy, it’s considered the offspring of our thoughts and our
emotions. So it is the child of the father and the mother. And it’s a male principle, so it’s a male
child, the son. So this could be seen as the divine child of the trinity. Thoughts being the creator
God, the emotions being the sacred feminine mother, and then our actions being the male
offspring of those two, the divine male child, the son. So the next part of the presentation is going
to deal with how consciousness manifests itself through our physiology and the structure of the
human brain, because it’s extremely important to understand the structure of the brain and how
the different complexes within the brain function if we’re going to understand what’s really going
on within us. So this is a schematic diagram of the human brain and it shows that the brain is
basically broken down into three sub-complexes. We have in effect three small brains working in
unison as one whole brain complex. And the three complexes within the brain are the R
complex, or the reptile brain. You see it here at the bottom, and it is basically the
brain stem and the cerebellum, the dark part right behind the brain stem, right here, the
cerebellum and this is the brain stem so this part of the brain governs our
survival instincts it has to do with our motor skills it has to do with all
things that we interact with in the physical world movement basic survival
techniques the necessity for food to take food and nutrients into the body
shelter clothing warmth etc so the reptile brain is geared toward the
physical the physical world and it is it is focused upon survival that’s what
helps us to focus on the physical things that we need to do to survive on a
day-to-day basis the aura complex or the reptile brain so the second sub complex
of the brain is the mammalian brain or the limbic brain and this is the part of
the brain that basically governs our emotions it makes our it makes our
emotions capable of being expressed through our body in other words it pumps
all of the chemicals the neural peptides into the body from this part of the
brain that makes us feel the consequences of what we do in the world so this is the limbic
brain and it can be seen as the intuitive part of the brain since it generates our emotions
it’s comprised of the hypothalamus the hippocampus the amygdala and the pineal and pituitary glands
so that’s the midbrain and there’s a third part of the brain that most people when they see it
they think that that is the entire brain that the the gray matter of the brain and it is simply one
of the complexes of the brain but it is by far the most complex and by far the part of the brain that
gives us our human qualities and that is the neocortex it’s called the human brain this is
a part of the brain that is responsible for higher order thinking within a human being.
It makes higher order thinking possible. All of the things that distinguish us from the
animal kingdom, it takes place within the neocortex. Art, science, music, speech, verbal
and written communication, all neocortical functions. So these three parts of the brain
can also be seen to be symbolic analogs of consciousness,
of the trinity of consciousness, as we have already talked about.
See, the reptile complex of the brain is based upon control.
It’s the part of the brain that makes us want to control our environment
so that we survive.
And this can be seen as the Old Testament God,
obsessed with law, obsessed with regimen, with control.
So it’s the dominator aspect of the brain.
A reptile is a creature of instinct, without emotion, cold-blooded, just focused on survival.
The sacred feminine part of the brain, what I correlate to the Holy Spirit,
is the midbrain, the limbic system, the limbic brain, the mammal brain.
So, it is what generates our emotions, the spirit in which we do things.
So, that’s the feminine aspect of the brain complex.
And then, the most important part of the brain, by far, is the neocortex,
because that’s where all of our human qualities are really derived out of the activity that takes place within this part of the brain.
Without the neocortex, we wouldn’t be able to do any of the things that make us human.
So this could be seen as the light, the thing that truly separates us from the animal kingdom.
And it is the sun, the divine child, it’s the product of these other two brains,
with the reptile complex being the father, the limbic system being the mother,
and then they bear the divine child, the neocortex, the light of the world, so to speak,
because the prefrontal neocortex was known as the third eye and by the ancients and this is the part
of the brain that is responsible for our highest order thinking and it’s the seat of higher
consciousness in the physiology so these three parts of the brain the triune brain as it’s called
in the scientific world is a symbolic analog to the aspects of consciousness and the types of
energy that we talked about when we talked about the doubt. So absolutely important to understand
how these components function and what happens if they become imbalanced, which we’ll talk about
later in the presentation. Now to understand that, we have to understand that the neocortex itself
is bilaterally symmetrical. It’s divided down the middle. It’s in two distinct parts, two distinct
halves and they’re called brain hemispheres. So there’s a left hemisphere and a right hemisphere
and they govern different functions of an individual. So the left brain of an individual
governs things like logic, analytical thought processes, verbal communication or language,
mathematics and science. Anything that requires analysis and logic. So it’s the masculine side
of the brain. Hard facts, hard figures, physical worldliness, reason. The right brain functions
entirely differently. It’s more holistic. It governs holistic thoughts, spiritual thought.
It is intuitive. It’s where our intuition is derived from.
It’s the creative center of the individual.
So artistic capability is derived from this part of the brain.
All kinds of creativity, music, etc., art, comes from this part of the brain.
So it’s the feminine aspect of the brain.
So you have a male side of the brain and you have a female side of the brain.
and it isn’t that one is better than the other
it’s that they need to be balanced
just like the yin and yang energies
they need to be balanced to come to a state of wholeness
of working in unison with each other
and equilibrium
and that’s a truly ordered individual
a person who really is truly awake in consciousness
has a balanced brain
they’re using both brain hemispheres
in conjunction with each other. When that is done, the prefrontal neocortex that governs the
highest order thinking within the individual really comes online. And that’s kind of the
opening of the third eye, so to speak. And that only happens when these two brain hemispheres
come into coherence with each other. And a little bit later, I’m going to talk about what happens if
These brain hemispheres are radically out of balance with each other. What happens if one side really is dominating the other?
There’s very little activity taking place in one hemisphere of the brain, but a whole lot on the other and
not too
Unpleasant things begin to occur things that aren’t too good in our experience
begin to happen
When the brain is in significant states of imbalance, so I’ll be talking about that later again
The left brain is the yang energy.
The right brain is the yin energy in correlation to Daoism.
So the symbols for these, which will become important as we
go forward and talk about symbology,
are the upward pointing triangle.
In the ancient world, the upward pointing triangle seen here
was known as the blade.
This is a symbol representing male energy, or yang energy.
It’s a rudimentary phallic symbol.
It’s an upward-pointing triangle.
It’s like the tip of a spear, okay?
Or it’s, like I said, a rudimentary phallic symbol.
These are thrusting elements, a spear, a penis, male active thrust, okay?
The opposite of that yin energy is the inverted triangle, okay?
So you just are taking it and you’re using its opposite, an inverted triangle.
This is like the shape of a womb, the shape of the lower portion of the female anatomy that bears children.
It’s like a chalice that holds wine or blood.
The Holy Grail is a concept of this inverted triangle.
It was known as the chalice in the ancient world.
So you have the blade, and that represents the yang energy, the left brain.
And then the chalice, the inverted triangle, that represents the yin energy or the right brain.
So keep those symbols in mind and how they correlate to consciousness and how they correlate to the brain as we go forward because we will be seeing them again.
The next concept I’ll talk about is polarity.
So polarity is how seemingly opposite forces work in the world.
And I’m going to talk about how the differences between them are really illusion.
That there really is only one ultimate force that’s at work in the world,
but it kind of has split itself in two.
And it works in different ways to really help us to have an experience in the physical world.
So polar forces can be looked at as hot and cold, good and evil, young and old.
hot and cold. Let’s take light and dark as an example. It’s only one thing, light and dark.
They’re not really opposites. There is only light energy. It’s either present or it’s not present,
in which case you have darkness. You can’t go into a completely lit room and shine darkness
into a room. There’s no such thing as a darkness flashlight, right? Because darkness is simply
the absence of light energy. So there’s only light energy. We look at light and dark as
two polar opposites, but they’re really not. There’s really only one thing there. There’s
only light or its absence. So going forward with this section, that’s what I want you
to keep in mind that things that we really see as opposites, as really warring against
each other, energies that are warring against each other, are really only one thing, or
its absence.
A scientist, Dr. Masaru Emoto, I believe is his name, does experimentations with water
crystals where he exposes simple water to energies to vibratory energies to
emotions and he then takes the water molecules and he photographs them on
their high magnification to see if their structure changes depending on
proximity to certain forms of consciousness like high level of joy or
high level of fear or anger things like that and this beautifully organized
water molecule crystal that you see here formed when the scientists placed water
in the presence of high joy and love within certain individuals so it became
ordered and this brings us to the first polarity okay the first polarity is that
which brings order and is the good emotion we only basically have two
emotional polarities every other feeling that you could possibly feel is an
extension of one of these two basic polar emotional forces at work in the
world so the first one is that which makes us feel good and it’s what that
which brings order and it is the energy of love the polarity of love and giving
an idea of what I mean by the love polarity, the love energy going forward throughout this
presentation. It is not this Hollywood or romance novel idea of love. It is the expansive
force of consciousness. If you look at the images here, it’s individuals that have opened
themselves up to what is and are in harmony with that which is with truth
and with understanding and knowledge and light and consciousness and love is that
aspect of consciousness of the expansive aspect of consciousness that which
flowers does this and opens up opens us up to that which is that’s what love
really is okay it’s it’s polar opposite is the opposite of the energy that makes
us feel good and which brings order this is the energy that makes us feel bad
when we experience it and which brings to our experience chaos and disorder and
disarray and pain and suffering and it’s interesting that the scientists the
Mota took water, the same water that he had just previously exposed to a high vibratory
energy of consciousness and love and joy, and he then exposed it to people totally in
shut-down consciousness, fighting amongst themselves in fear and anger and just being
generally nasty to each other.
And this is what the same water ended up looking like.
The crystalline structure completely broke down and there was just chaos in the structure of the water. And it shows you that our emotions and what we think and what we do have an effect on the physical world.
The external reality is a reflection of what’s really going on inside of us. So this is water that’s been exposed to the negative emotional polarity. And that emotional polarity is fear.
Fear is the opposite polarity of love. It is the absence of love to varying degrees. And this is the force, this is the polarity that brings disorder into our experience. It brings chaos when it arrives within us. It can never create order.
Love is the polarity that brings order. Fear is the polarity that brings chaos. This is the energy that shuts consciousness down. Like love does this and it opens it up, fear does this and it closes it down and it keeps it suppressed.
Okay, so these two basic emotional polarities, love and fear, are what really create everything around us, depending on how much we’re in harmony with each of them.
And they have each an internal manifestation, and they each have an external manifestation.
So love has a manifestation that happens within us, and then outward in the world.
And fear has a manifestation that happens within us and then outward in the world.
We’re going to talk about those.
So we’ll talk about the internal polarities next, the internally expressed polarities of love and fear.
So when love reaches a crescendo or a highest expression within an individual, within an individual, okay?
I have a term that I call this. It’s a concept that as you think, so you feel internally, and so you act in the world.
See, there’s no separation within you, right? As you think, so you feel, so you act.
And I call this concept dominion.
It means that you are in rulership of the only thing you’re really allowed to be in rulership of.
you’re in rulership of the kingdom of self. As you think, so you feel, so you act. Those three
aspects of consciousness are in unison within you, and no one can tear them apart. No one can divide
them or conquer them. People can’t get you to do something that you don’t feel is right. You act in
a way that you say you think and feel, and then you act that way in the world. There’s no contradiction
within. That’s the state of dominion. Its opposite is when fear runs rampant within an individual
and you have opposition within the self. The consciousness is shut down. The individual does
not really understand what’s taking place within themselves or around them because they’re
essentially unconscious. The opposite of conscious, consciousness being the ability to recognize
patterns taking place within and outside of oneself. This fear that runs rampant within
an individual, it reaches a crescendo or it reaches a final expression within an individual.
This is the state of confusion. Confusion is the internal polarity of fear residing
residing within an individual an individual goes into a state of shutdown and confusion they do not
understand themselves and they do not understand the world and often when they’re in this state
they don’t want to do any learning because they’re operating in lower forms of consciousness and
that’s not where we can really do learning and to get out of this mode which it becomes like a
cyclical process the individual becomes trapped in it so these two polarities
love and fear have an external manifestation this is extremely
important to the most key concepts that I’m going to be discussing going forward
in the presentation I’m going to talk about right now when love the polar
energy of love reaches its highest vibratory state within individuals the
community around the individuals begins to express something and something is
becoming born in the external world when individuals have the love energy dwelling
within them and this is the highest expression of love manifested outwardly
in the outside world that we see in our experience and that is freedom freedom
is the highest goal of the quest for truth of the spiritual quest it is one
and the same as the quest for the divine and if spiritual teachers aren’t really
teaching that to people I don’t believe that they’re doing their job because
it’s all about freedom and about very little else freedom is what the end
result is all about okay it is the highest expression of love in the world
around us when love is present within an individual they are working toward true
freedom the opposite of this force the opposite of this manifestation in the
outside world is if fear rules within the individual the essence of fear rules
the individual goes into the state of confusion within so the polar energy of
fear is ruling their consciousness is shutting consciousness down and then in
Internally, they’re in that state of confusion.
When someone is in a shut down state of consciousness and confused, the way that they then almost invariably act in the external world is the desire for control.
Control is the polarity of fear that reaches its highest expression and then is born out into the external world.
And it is based on the dynamic of fear. It is based on the polar vibratory energy of fear. Not strength, not power, but fear. A controller wants control because he is in fear.
External control is an illusion. It does not exist anywhere in three-dimensional manifestation. It is a complete illusion that we buy into because our consciousness is shut down through fear and confusion.
And this dynamic cannot ever create order in the world, being based on fear.
You saw what fear does to the water molecules, and ultimately it creates chaos in the external world.
The only way that we would be able to create order is through freedom.
Impossible to do it through control, because control is based in fear.
And fear creates chaos, as we’ve seen.
If you’re going to create order in the world, the only way to ever do it is to do it by attempting to create freedom in the world, because freedom is based on the polar energy of love. It is based on the dynamic of love, and that is the force which brings order and peace and prosperity.
trying to create any kind of control through any kind of order through control is only going to
get you chaos it cannot ever create order or peace so with that being said the next concept
to understand is direction we understand how these polar forces work what they do in the
within ourselves and in the external world we have to ask ourselves some basic questions about
the direction of our lives, and how we’ve lived, how we are living, and if we continue on the path
we’re on, what we’re likely to see in the future. So we’re looking for our compass. We’re looking
for our emotional compass, the direction that we want to set ourselves in in life. And we can do
this. We can try to set this compass for direction by asking some basic questions. Are we moving
toward an expression of love, or are we moving toward an expression of fear, both within and
in the outside world? Which one of those basic polar forces are we really moving toward,
if we are honest with ourselves? Based on our available knowledge of ourselves and the world
around us, we have to make an honest appraisal of where we are and where we are headed. We have to
have an understanding of the past. Not studying the past is extremely dangerous because those
who don’t understand what has happened in the past, it is very true that they are often
doomed to repeat it in cyclical, in cycles, because they don’t get the lesson. So an understanding
of what happened in our past can help us to orient our direction for the future. We should
learn from the past, from the mistakes of the past. But most importantly in analyzing and trying
to come to an understanding of what sets our direction in life. We have to really grasp and
understand that our emotions are the most critical factor. Our emotions are our compass for direction
in life. When we feel an emotion, it’s because it’s trying to tell us either continue to do that
thing or do not continue to do that thing. The emotions are the compass. That’s why it’s called
compassion. Compass is in the word. Compassion. Compass. Passion. Emotion. So our emotions are
our compass for direction in life. If we numb them out, if we seek to not feel them, we’re throwing
our compass away and we’re lost in the wilderness so your emotions are there to be felt not to be
numbed out as many people are striving to do in the modern world there are there are our guide
so to speak there are our markers through the wilderness that we’re in and we need them and
we need to cultivate them and feel them not on the mountain so worldview is the next concept
to grasp. And this really is what most people suffer from, a poisoned worldview, as I’ll talk
about in part two. See, it’s just what it says. It’s our view of the world, how we view ourselves
in relation to the world, how we view others in relation to ourselves. So just like the polar
energy forces that we talked about in polarity. There’s a positive worldview, and then there’s a
negative worldview. So the positive worldview is one that sees ourselves as, yes, an individual,
unique expression of individuality, the monad of consciousness, if you will, the individual unit,
but it recognizes that we are unique, and we’re an expression of the whole, and we’re part of the
whole when that drop is in the whole ocean there’s no separation it is the same consciousness it is
the same energy it is the same substance it’s made of the same thing and we need to see the world
more in that holistic sense if we’re going to come through these problems that we’re facing
that we see in the external world it’s because we see ourselves as fundamentally separate from
everyone else. See, it doesn’t mean we have to lose our uniqueness. We can still understand that
we’re completely unique, like a beautiful snowflake, and there’s only one like that.
You know, it’s not to throw away the idea of individuality, because that is of total importance.
That is of critical import to understand that each individual is a unique expression of
consciousness within the whole. So the value of the individual is infinite, and it must be
respected at all times but it’s not to say that the individual shouldn’t also
understand that they are part of a living system see we belong to the whole
system of the earth the whole complex that is this living breathing planet we
can’t separate ourselves from our environment from our ecosystem we belong
to it we are part of it and human nature you know this is really what worldview
really gets down to. How do we see human nature? Do we think of human nature as fundamentally
flawed? Do we think of it as fundamentally evil or vile? I think this is what human nature
really looks like once all the external tapestries are stripped away and all the non-essential
are stripped away. Human nature is fundamentally good, not fundamentally evil or flawed. That’s
a poison worldview. If we’re to heal the problems within ourselves and in our social structure,
we need to recognize human nature for what it is. It’s good. It’s all the conditioning
and the mind control factors that go into poisoning a person through information that
they take in over the course of their lives that makes them do the things that they do,
the harmful things that they do. It isn’t that that’s human nature. And we need to really
be focused on working toward true freedom if our worldview is a positive one and if we really
understand what we’re here to do and what a positive worldview is really seeking to create,
to accomplish. When we take this worldview, this positive connected worldview, this unified,
non-dual worldview, these are the states that emerge. Higher levels of consciousness and
awareness, dominion within the self, understanding of our motivations, our desires. And states like
this is what emerges, what you see here. Peace, harmony, justice, truth, freedom, order. They can
only be created with a positive worldview. The opposite worldview is a negative or a dark
worldview, a poisoned worldview, as I call it. So it’s the worldview that, you know, sees that,
again that little drop up there as completely cut off and separate from the whole. This is one
big huge mass of consciousness but I’m completely separate from it and I have no relationship
to that whole. You know I’m just a number. I’m one of the faces in a mass of faces and I
can’t really affect any change. I’m just a number. I’m powerless. My nature is fundamentally flawed.
We come into the world in a state of corruption and sin and, you know, brokenness.
And you take this worldview, your life will become a reflection of that worldview.
Your consciousness will slowly begin to shut down until you’re in a state that resembles sleep or hypnosis.
And you will have all kinds of susceptibility to techniques of mind control, which I’ll be talking about.
And when we take this negative worldview, then we want to lash out against everyone else.
We’re cut off. We’re separate from everybody else.
We’re in a state of internal confusion because our consciousness is shut down.
And then we want control.
We want to feel better about ourselves by taking external control over someone else.
And all that’s doing is ignoring the basic problem.
The basic problem that a controller does not know oneself.
They don’t really understand the modalities of consciousness that are indwelling within them.
And because they’re in that state of internal confusion, then they seek for external control over others.
You’re only going to create chaos, suffering, disorder, disharmony, and ultimately enslavement by looking at the world in that way.
These are the states that a negative worldview brings into manifestation, a being that is shut down in fear, totally oppressed, or looking to oppress others, like a sorcerer or a big brother type.
So that is worldview.
The next concept I’m going to introduce is magic versus sorcery.
These are very real forces.
These are very real energies that are being used all around us at all times in the world.
And they’re very real, but they’re quite different from the Hollywood interpretation or definition.
A real magician or sorcerer isn’t casting lightning bolts from his fingertips,
but he is using forces at work in the world to create what he wishes to create.
And here’s the definition of magic.
This is what magic actually is in the real world.
Magic is a science.
It’s a science and art of influencing change to occur in accordance with the will.
Now that’s a very important term there at the end.
Will with a capital W.
Whole books, whole volumes have pretty much been written about what that means.
And this does not mean the practitioner’s egoic will.
My will, my desire.
what I want to see happen, what I want to see done.
This is the will of the energy of creation.
It is the will of love.
It is the will of that polar force that wants to create order,
the divine intelligence inherent in creation, in the energy of creation.
Now, you can call that whatever you want.
I have no problem calling that God.
I have no problem calling that the divine.
This is the divine will.
but you could think of it however you wish to think of it. So that’s what magic
is. The science and art of influencing change to occur in accordance with the
Will capital W. The divine will. Let thy will be done not my egoic will.
Magic’s goal is the state of non-dualism. We talked about this before. This is the
state of dominion, the state of not being able to be torn apart internally. This is the state of
as you think, so you feel, and so you act. You are non-dual. You are one within. Your three aspects
of your consciousness are one and cannot be torn apart. As you think, so you feel, so you act. That
is magic’s goal. A true magician is trying to bring the state of non-dualism into being,
not only within himself, but with anyone else that he may have the ability to influence
and inspire. And the process of this, of a magician’s process to create the state of
non-dualism is known as alchemy. And alchemy is not this medieval concept of turning actual
metals, base metals into gold. This is an allegory. This is a symbolic allegory of helping
to raise base consciousness into solar consciousness, into divine consciousness, you know, non-dual
consciousness, harmonic with the resonant energy of love, of order, of a unified brain,
the unified male and female energies. So that’s what an alchemist is really trying to do. He’s
attempting to inspire others and be an influence for them to raise their consciousness up to a
higher level. That’s what the process of alchemy is. And that’s a magician’s vehicle for doing his
work to accomplish non-dualism. The opposite of magic is sorcery. And as you see here,
the definition is almost identical. Sorcery is the science and art of influencing change to occur
in accordance with the will. And you’ll notice that the will is no longer capitalized,
lowercase w, okay, because this form of will is not the capital W will. It is not the divine
energy. It is not the divine aspect of creation, the divine will. This is the sorcerer’s own
egoic desires, what I want, what I want to accomplish for my ends. Let not thy will be
done, let my will be done. So sorcery also has a goal, and what it is trying to create
and bring into the world is the state of opposition.
Opposition is the state when polar forces are at war with each other
and there is struggle, there is conflict, there is suffering, there is chaos.
Moreover, it means that sorcery wants to create,
and a sorcerer wishes to create an opposition within an individual.
This is the opposition that takes place within us.
We don’t, we aren’t unified in the way we think, feel, and act.
We may think a certain way or feel a certain way about something,
and yet we do something that’s in opposition to that.
So we’re torn apart from within.
Three aspects of our consciousness are not unified as one.
They are torn apart.
So in that aspect, the person is in internal opposition,
where they are crucified within themselves.
it can be seen as and the actual methodologies that are used to
accomplish the state of opposition both within an individual and in the external
world is the sorcerer’s tools of illusion and manipulation it is getting
people to believe in something that simply is not real and that does not
serve their interest in the world does not serve who we are and how we are
really meant to live and it creates disharmony and strife and suffering in
the world they want to try to get people to believe that way because it may
benefit them even though it doesn’t benefit the whole it may benefit them so
that they profit and they come out on top and everyone else suffers that’s
what a sorcerer is really trying to do and they use illusion and manipulation
playing people off against each other manipulating them getting them to see
things that they want them in a way that they want them to see getting them to
believe in things that aren’t real don’t serve them and yet then people develop
an attachment to it and that’s really what creates all suffering so that’s
what magic and sorcery is really about as they are used in the real world so
So the next concept in consciousness that we have to understand is, what really keeps
us as a species in a state of general unconsciousness?
What are the barriers to our self-realization?
And look at the word realization, I’ll be talking a lot about the meaning of words going
forward in the presentation.
To use one’s real eyes, to realize something.
When we realize it, we are making it real, realizing it, okay?
So it’s bringing something into manifestation.
What are our barriers to realizing the true self, the true essence of who we are?
The barriers to the realization of the true self, okay?
Not the egoic self, but the real essence of who we are.
Here are the four main barriers to the realization of the true self.
The five sense illusion, ego identification, the prison of the left brain, and institutionalized belief systems, which we’ve already talked a bit about.
So I’ll take them in order.
The five sense illusion is the first barrier to the realization of the true self.
This is the idea that only what we are able to perceive with our sensory organs is real.
And anything that lies outside of that sense perception cannot exist.
That’s what this concept is, the five sense illusion.
This first image over here on the left is the visible bandwidth of light energy that we are able to see and decode as color in the human eye.
And you see, this is a blow-up of it here, but over here, this little strip right here is, in fact, all of the visible colors of light that the human eye can perceive.
There is an infinity in the spectrum to the left and the right of frequencies that the human eye cannot decode as color, yet they exist.
Sound is another example.
Take a dog whistle as an example.
you blow a dog whistle your ear does not hear the sound yet a dog’s ear does that’s because your ear
is tuned to a different vibratory bandwidth of frequencies than is a dog’s ear does that mean
that no sound is coming out of the whistle that you’re blowing of course not the sound vibration
exists it’s traveling through the air it’s actually reaching your ear your ear just can’t decode it as
sound. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Our identification with the solidity of matter.
Most people do not realize that matter is nothing but solid. It’s nothing like anything solid.
Matter is almost entirely empty space. The atom is almost entirely empty space. The nucleus of an
atom, if you made it the size of a baseball, the electrons, what we term the electron shells,
would be city blocks away from the nucleus,
and all in between is empty space, vacuum.
If you took a subatomic particle of an atom
and looked at it under enormously high-power, powerful magnification,
we don’t even have the technology to do that.
Scientists understand that these subatomic particles
that comprise all matter are really vibratory energy.
They’re just a wave of energy vibrating very quickly like a little rubber band.
This is string theory.
And think of it like a telephone cord.
If you took a telephone cord or a jump rope, okay,
and just kept whipping it faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster,
eventually you can make it look like there was a ball there
if you were able to whip it around fast enough, but it’s not a solid object.
you have a very very thin thin unit dimensional piece of rope or strand or
string and it’s just vibrating and it’s taking the form by the way it’s
vibrating matter is the same way matter is not solid it’s simply energy and
vibration and everything is made of this from the smallest cells the smallest
single cell organisms to entire galaxies. We are made of this. We are not solid. We are energy
taking a form through vibration. And so we have to understand that if we’re going to get past
this five sense illusion of only what we see and perceive, you know, to our limited sensory organs
is real. It simply is not true. A great experiment that really helps one to understand that matter
isn’t really solid and that our consciousness is really what determines the outcome of how
we perceive and experience the physical world is the double slit experiment, the quantum
physics double slit experiment. You could go online and look that up and watch a video
about it, but I’ll briefly describe it here. Scientists take very, very small bits of matter,
Like, let’s say you took a little ball bearing and you shot it through two slits, as you see up here.
You get a pattern on the other wall that looks like two slits from where they went through and they struck the measuring device on the other side.
So that’s this first image here.
Very small pieces of matter, like let’s say ball bearings or pellets.
You’re shooting them through a shield with two slits in it, and that’s the pattern they form on the other side.
Now, when scientists do this with electrons, which are very, very, very small bits of matter,
part of an atom, a subatomic particle of an atom, which is what matter is comprised of,
you do not get two slits. You get what’s called an interference pattern,
which is like waves like when water goes through something and strikes it with intensity and then
it diminishes as it goes out from the center of intensity but scientists are confused we shot
small bits of matter through these two slits and we get an interference pattern how could that be
they thought maybe they were interfering with each other because they were shooting them through as
a stream of electrons. So what they do is they then take an electron voltmeter, which
fires only one electron at a time. So now they’re just firing one electron at a time,
but yet they still get an interference pattern. There’s nothing for the electron, the single
electron, to interfere with because it’s going through one at a time. But they still get
interference pattern like waves okay this is because at the quantum scale
matter isn’t solid it is wave energy and the electron is leaving that electron
voltmeter as a wave and it’s passing through that double slit as a wave to
strike the wall as a wave. Now scientists wanted to determine well how
many of them are going through one slit? How many of them are bouncing off? How
many of them are going through another slit? So they put a measuring device
before one of the slits and they’re going to measure how many of these
individual electrons are passing through only one of the slits. What happens is
when they put the measuring device onto the one slip, the pattern then changes, and it
behaves like large matter, large pieces of matter, like macroscopic matter instead of
the very, very tiny subatomic particle of an electron. It stops behaving like a wave
because consciousness has been introduced to the equation, and then it behaves like
solid matter it then upon being observed here this is called the observer effect
upon being observed before it goes through the slit okay it has to make a
decision about which slit it’s going to go in it cannot act as a wave because
there is consciousness introduced so then an outcome must be determined and
What happens is it is called the collapse of the wave form.
So the particle that left as a wave collapses to a point particle
and then goes through one of the slits or the other or bounces off the screen.
Prior to that, it only exists as a wave form if no consciousness is introduced.
So this shows us, one, matter is not solid.
It is a wave form, a vibratory energy.
Two, how we view ourselves, the world, the things that are taking place has an effect on the outcome. We are made of these particles. So introducing consciousness into the equation can have the effect of changing the end result.
result. That’s the important thing to keep in mind here. Looking at it one way may get you one
thing. Looking at it a different way may get you something else. The five sense illusion. The next
barrier to self-realization is ego identification. So ego should be briefly defined because most
people think of ego as, oh, I’m just a person who’s completely full of myself, you know, and I just
think that I’m so great and so better than everybody else. That isn’t ego as I’m using it
in this idea, in this concept. Ego identification means that a person is identified with roles that
they play in life. They don’t see themselves as an aspect of consciousness. They see themselves as
what I do, what I’m involved in, the role that I play. So I am a businessman. I am a soldier. I am
an American. I am a father or a mother, okay? You’re identified with the roles that you play
in life. These are simply vehicles, expressions for consciousness to have an experience in the
physical world. They’re not who we actually are underneath. We are the expression of consciousness,
having an experience in the physical world. These are roles we play in life. They’re not
actually who we are. But we often tend to get into the trap of identifying with these roles so much,
so completely, that we define ourselves as these roles. And that’s where we get into trouble.
the next barrier to the realization of the true self is the left brain prison
so we talked about the hemispheres of the brain and how the left and right
brain play very different roles in their functions and what we have to understand
is that shut down modes of consciousness are very frequently caused by left brain
imbalance and this is we’ll talk about why that is later in what happens to the
brain when it becomes in balance toward one hemisphere or the other so the next
barrier to the realization of the true self is what I call and what many
researchers have called the left brain prison this is getting trapped in the
functions of the left brain only and kind of ignoring the the right brain
functions of holistic thought and intuition. This is a product of our culture actually which
stresses reading, writing, math, verbal communication, written language, science,
logic, reason and it oftentimes ignores particularly in our educational upbringing
holistic thinking, intuition, creativity, art, music, things like that are often de-emphasized
in our educational structures, certainly not emphasized in our scientific establishments.
And this is kind of like a cartoon talking about or making a commentary on the differences
between the left and right brain.
The left brain there, you see everyone in business cubicles, all the same color, you know, all looking identical, like robots, kind of.
And then on the right-hand side, you see people engaged in creative acts, in holistic behaviors, hanging out with their family, flying kites, reading, you know, doing creative things, art.
And it’s a good analysis of the dichotomy between the left and right brain hemispheres.
And the tendency in our culture is to get trapped in that left brain modality
because that is the part of the brain that kind of keeps us real rooted to the physical world.
And it’s that which kind of is geared more towards staying in control.
This is the dominator part, the aggressor or dominator part of the brain.
And that’s why I have the image there of Big Brother from 1984 because this is what it ultimately leads to if you stay trapped in that left brain sense of identity, the left brain prison, becoming like a dominator.
The next barrier to the identification of the true self is institutionalized belief systems.
So, I call them belief systems because that’s exactly what they are. They are beliefs that people become attached to. They do them often because it’s simply the way they were done previously.
If they were introduced suddenly now, without any prior knowledge on them,
many people would say, well, why would you want to do something that way?
But because they’re handed down to us by other people who just say,
that’s how it’s done, or that’s the way it is, or that’s how we do this,
then it’s accepted from our cultural paradigm, our cultural way of seeing the world.
And it’s also interesting to note the word institution.
When we say that we are committed to an institution, what do we mean by that?
Are we favoring the things that a body of people who do a certain thing, their approach to doing this are?
Or are we saying I’m being committed to a mental asylum?
you know committed to an institution and committed to an institution are the same
phrase in our language and one should think about why that may be why are they
the same phrase even though they mean two completely different things language
is a funny thing like that we’ll be talking a lot more about words the
meaning of words the derivations of words you know how our language speaks
to us in very very right brain ways if we can only break it down and really
hear what’s being said kind of almost symbolically but these are some
institutions you know marriage business the business world the educational world
the medical community you have government you have religion you have
military police and paramilitary these are all institutional belief systems
They are not institutions which are really out there to discover truth. They are institutions that are out there to tell people how things actually are in their view, in their world view, and then get them to go along with it without any actual examination of the facts for themselves.
us. Therefore, they are belief systems. It works like this. Take my word that it works
like this and just do what we say based on belief. Not discovery, not self-discovery,
but just belief. And that’s why I think that institutional belief systems are one of the
biggest barriers to self-realization because they don’t really take the individual into
account. They absorb the individual rather than encourage the unique expression of an
individual. With that having been said, the next section is the true self versus the false
self or the lower self. So the higher self versus the lower self. That which is the real
self versus the self that is engaged in and trapped in illusion. So this is what the qualities
of the true self are. When we are born in conscience, when we are born in consciousness,
these are the qualities that the individual takes on. The true self exists in a state
of dominion and non-duality. So as they think, so they feel, so they act. And they cannot
be separated from that that way of living their life way of being in the
world a true self understands and works for true freedom they really grasp the
concept of freedom they understand it as the highest expression of love in the
world around them and they’re working toward higher and higher expressions of
freedom the true self practices alchemy to bring about the true will so the true
self is a magician in the truest sense he is not serving his own egoic will he
is serving the will of creation the will of the the divine that which wants to
bring higher levels of consciousness into manifestation the true self is
concerned with the alleviation of suffering for all beings that’s very
critical the true self recognizes that another being suffering is his own
suffering and he suffers he or she suffers as long as there is even one
other being that suffers and they realize that because their worldview
reflects an understanding that there is no separation between self and others
that separation that seeming separation is an illusion there is only one
consciousness here. And there is really no separation when you get right down to
the deepest levels of consciousness. The true self does not exist in left-brained
prisonhood and he does not exist in ego identification. He has made the energies
that are in the seat of consciousness, in the physiology, in the
brain, one. He’s united the polarities of left and right brain of
male and female the chemical wedding if you will it’s been called and he’s
operating from a perspective of whole thoughts okay and he’s not ego
identified he doesn’t consider the role that he is playing in the world
regardless of what it may be father brother son teacher you know any job
that he may do he’s not identified with that as his identity okay it’s not who
he is it’s what he happens to be doing at any given moment the role he’s playing
the true self seeks to break down all institutionalized belief systems because
he recognizes them as boxes of consciousness keeping people entrained
into belief systems into believing what they’re told instead of really
discovering things for themselves. So the true self wants to break down these institutionalized
systems. He wants to limit their capabilities and their power as much as possible because
he recognizes that institutional belief systems are ultimately an assault upon the freedom of
the individual. And they’re ultimately an assault upon consciousness when you get right down to it.
Now, the qualities of the false self, the lower self, the base self, if you will.
The false self exists in a state of confusion and opposition,
and not in a state of dominion.
They’re in a state of internal strife.
They’re confused, seeking control, and therefore they’re in opposition with themselves,
as they think isn’t how they feel and act.
They’ll take an action in complete opposition to how they may really feel deep inside.
They’re sinning against their emotions, sinning against the spirit.
And this can only happen because the consciousness is shut down through fear.
They ultimately exist in a vibratory energy of fear.
The true self can’t even envision what true freedom is.
You could try to explain the conceptual idea of what freedom is, but they’ll not really grasp it or understand it.
Because their consciousness is so ruled by the vibration of fear that all they’re seeking is control to try to alleviate the internal confusion.
They don’t understand themselves or the world.
So they just lash out through control to try to externally control events.
And all they’re going to do by that modality is bring more chaos and disorder into the world and into themselves ultimately.
The true self often employs sorcery to bring accordance with his own egoic will, his or her own desires.
And normal people can act as sorcerers, trying to manipulate and influence other people just for their own benefit.
It doesn’t have to be a skilled practitioner of mind control or magic.
This is an everyday person can become a sorcerer.
And they’re trying to bring accordance with their own egoic will.
It doesn’t matter.
The divine will doesn’t matter at all.
It’s what I want.
It’s all about what I want.
He’s concerned only with one’s self and one’s own.
If that.
You know, maybe my family or small circle of friends.
If that.
But ultimately the focus is on my own comfort, my own happiness, my own desires.
And anyone else, if it doesn’t affect me in my own immediate surrounding, they can be damned.
The true self has a worldview that reflects a belief that everything exists in a state of separation even though this is not the case.
They believe that because they’re trapped in that left brain modality, that left brain prison.
The true self lives life in a state of left brain ego identification.
totally identified with the roles they play
and attached to their belief systems
totally attached to what they perceive
doesn’t matter what the truth is
I’m going to think what I want about it
it’s where this moral relativist stance comes in
doesn’t matter if there’s a truth out there
I can determine the truth for myself
or whatever I want it to be
I’m the arbiter of truth
So he’s in such a state of left-brain prisonhood that he is completely ego-identified.
The role I play is all that there is, and that’s who I am.
And the false self accepts and reinforces most institutionalized belief systems.
So not only do they accept the belief system, they enforce it themselves.
They want to propagate it because they’re benefiting in the physical sense, in the worldly sense, from that institution being in operation.
And they want to continue that.
So that’s the false self, the qualities of the false self, the egoic or lower self.
What we’ve talked about all through part one so far is really the nature of good and evil.
The nature of what we experience in the world within ourselves as good and what we experience within ourselves and in the world as evil.
And ultimately it’s broken down to simply this way.
Love is that which creates everything that is good in the world and fear is that which ultimately creates everything that is evil in the world.
And these are emotional polarities.
These are the forces that either awaken consciousness and make it flower or they shut consciousness down and put it into a box.
And these are the things that they bring into manifestation.
Love brings dominion within.
It brings freedom without.
It is accomplished through magic to bring about the true will through alchemy to create non-dualism.
Fear is bringing evil forward through creating internal confusion, which then results in the external desire for control. It works through the process of sorcery, manipulation, and serving the egoic will to create illusion in others and ultimately opposition within the self and others.
Love is sending us in the correct direction. The emotional compass is set properly when we’re in the vibratory energy of love, higher consciousness. Its goal is oneness. To bring about the true self. To open our minds and hearts up to higher and higher levels of awareness, of consciousness.
to help us to understand that we are but one thin slice of a multi-dimensional
world of infinite consciousness taking place all around us and it can help it
is trying to bring about a balanced brain a perfectly balanced brain between
the male and the female the left and the right hemispheres of the brain because
that is what will create order in the world okay all of these concepts will
bring about good and order the opposite side evil which works through fear will
create misdirection life fear will always create misdirection it will
always throw the emotional compass off target and send us in the wrong
direction because it’s working to try to separate people when you put people into
fear you’re separating them and you’re getting them to see everything as
separate themselves as separate from everything else this is identification
with the lower self this is base consciousness this is consciousness put
in a box and in a trap it’s ego identification total identification with
the physical worldly roles that we play trapped in the five sense world my
senses can’t perceive it it doesn’t exist even though they’re very limited
bandwidth open to very limited frequencies and bandwidths but if my
senses can’t perceive it it isn’t real and this is accomplished by keeping
people largely in left-brain prisonhood. And we’ll talk now about what these different
modalities actually bear into the world, what they birth into the world. Then we’ll start
to talk about how the brain can become imbalanced and how the brain really is a very significant
factor when it comes to how these forces work in the world. So when our thoughts are
balance, when they’re in harmony, we are in the vibration of love. This is
the essence of consciousness. This is the force that helps consciousness expand
and it ultimately is derived from how we think. When we are in that vibration our
emotions are acting as one and they’re helping us to create the unified
consciousness of dominion so as we think we feel we act and we cannot be torn
apart and when we do that then our actions are also in harmony and we’re
working toward true freedom so it happens from our thoughts in a vibration
of love internally our emotions are in harmony and in check and we’re not
ruled by them either we own them as well we’re in dominion okay so we know what’s
going on within. Then we put that into practice in the outside world to create freedom, which is
the highest expression of love in the world. So the pyramid of love is built upon dominion within
and freedom without. There’s no other way to get to that state. There’s no other way to create good
in the world. Order, peace will come from these polarities being in operation within the self
and in the outside world you’re not going to create in any other way it’s simply how the
organizing principles of the world work these are these are the energies we are working with and
this is how they work the opposite of this effect is if our thoughts are in complete disharmony
and they’re ruled by fear we are in the fear vibration with how we think that our emotions
are going to be completely out of order often they are going to rule us instead of us using
them for our benefit and we’re going to be in a complete state of confusion within and then our
actions are going to be geared toward trying to take external control over others and the only
thing that’s ever going to create in the world is chaos and evil that’s all you can create with
those polarities you know trying to say that you’re going to create good and order in the
world through control is like saying i’m going to take my wet laundry that i just washed and i’m
going to dry it by pouring more and more water on top of it you’ll never dry it like that it’s an
impossibility you’re adding the opposite polarity than what you want and that’s what that’s what
people in fear-based consciousness in internal confusion that don’t really
understand the self that have not made a study of their psychological and
emotional makeup are going to they’re going to create nothing but chaos in the
world through trying to control things externally instead of understanding
what’s really going on inside of us so that’s how that pyramid works now we
talked about consciousness and how it’s correlated to the brain the yin and yang
Yang energies the left and right hemisphere of the neocortex the human
brain okay and what I want to talk about now is what happens when one of these
hemispheres is completely dominant over the other how how does the whole brain
begin to function when that happens well the neocortex the whole upper brain the
whole human brain is like the executive controller that it’s the the command
center of the whole three sub-brain complexes. Remember you have the neocortex up at the top of
the head, the new brain, the new cortex, neo meaning new. You have the limbic brain in the
middle, it’s the midbrain, the mammal brain. And then at the base of the brain, you have the brain
stem and the cerebellum, which is called the R-complex, the reptile brain. So the neocortex,
The top brain is like the CEO of the company. Let’s look at it that way. He’s the person that makes the executive decisions of the company. Now, if that part of the brain gets sick, or if it isn’t working properly, then the command functions of the whole brain complex, the three parts of the brain, have to be shunted to one of the other two brain complexes.
So the executive functions are either going to go to the limbic brain, the midbrain, the mammal brain, or they’re going to go to the lower brain, the R-complex.
So here’s how this imbalance works.
Here you see the three complexes of the brain, the neocortex, the limbic brain, and the R-complex, or the reptile brain.
If we become extremely imbalanced to the left brain hemisphere, and this is how most people become imbalanced, there is a percentage that become very right brain imbalanced, but there is more of a tendency to become left brain imbalanced because of how our educational system is here in the western hemisphere.
The left brain becomes dominant, and what happens is the whole neocortex starts to not function properly, and this is the part of the brain that starts to shut down, the limbic brain.
see our emotions are more cultivated through a holistic cohesiveness of both
brain hemispheres particularly when we start to get in touch with our right
brain hemisphere okay when you’re only in the left there’s very little
emotional or intuitive makeup within the person so their limbic system actually
begins to shut down. Their whole neocortex isn’t functioning properly because of that
imbalance. So the part of the brain that takes over is the reptile brain, the R-complex.
And the person begins behaving in reptile-like ways. Controlling, dominating, hoarding, greed,
external control over others. We see this everywhere in our culture because these people’s
brains are in such a state of imbalance, in such a state of neurochemically, they’re not
operating properly. The limbic brain has stopped functioning. The person is essentially cut
off from their emotional guidance system of how they feel about what they do to others
and they become like a reptile because they’re being ruled by the reptile brain and they
become cold blooded. They don’t care about what they’re doing to anyone else. It’s all
about me and it doesn’t make a difference who I have to step on that’s
what a person is thinking who is ruled by the reptile brain doesn’t matter if
it’s right or wrong doesn’t matter it’s only about how it relates to me now the
opposite of this is if the right brain becomes imbalanced okay which is a more
of a rarity but it does happen then the person the neocortex shuts down again
Not completely, but it’s not really functioning in the way it’s intended as the executive functions of the brain.
And in this case, the person loses a lot of connection with the R-complex of the brain.
So they don’t care about anything going on in the physical world.
It doesn’t matter if I’m living in a state of physical disarray.
It doesn’t matter if I have none of the basic necessities for survival.
It doesn’t matter if I’m being controlled externally from other people and my rights are being taken away or I’m being physically abused.
See, because in that case, the mammalian brain, the limbic brain has gone kind of haywire and this person is being ruled by their emotional brain.
You know, they don’t have enough of the male tendencies because the feminine part of the brain has overtaken their consciousness.
And this person, their limbic system becomes the executive controller of the brain, and they lose all connection with survival instincts and anything having to do with living in the physical world.
So somebody who’s extremely imbalanced in religion or the New Age movement perhaps, excessively meditating, let’s say, this could be a way that the brain is imbalanced to the right hemisphere.
And then the person becomes ruled by the limbic brain, the mammalian brain.
And ultimately, that’s what is really going on.
We have people’s brains being imbalanced and really being put into a state of extreme unhealthiness through imbalance toward one brain hemisphere or another.
Because when we get imbalanced toward the left brain, we become ruled by the R-complex and we become dominators, masters.
When we’re ruled by the right brain, then we lose all connection with physical survival and don’t care what happens to us anymore.
We become ruled by our emotions and we become like slaves.
So this is why this brain imbalance is really occurring.
There’s a force out there that wants to create a world of masters and slaves, ultimately.
They want the brain so imbalanced, it wants the brain so imbalanced that there’s some people who are so left brain imbalanced they become dominating controllers.
And some that become right brain imbalanced and they’re willing to capitulate to any form of control that is thrust upon them.
And ultimately, there’s a little of both kinds of imbalance in most people.
And they become like a master and a slave simultaneously.
They want to rule over whoever they can below them,
and then they’ll take orders from whoever is above them in this hierarchy of control.
So this is an actual brain scan taken from a science journal
of what the brain looks like when it becomes heavily imbalanced.
This isn’t physical holes in the brain over here.
These are areas of electrochemical deadness, so there’s no neural firing in the black parts of the brain, the real dark areas.
This person’s brain that’s labeled normal here, it’s a bit difficult to see on this slide, but this person’s brain is in what’s called global EEG coherence, global brain coherence.
The electrochemical activity is distributed equally about both hemispheres of the neocortex.
You’re looking at the neocortex from underneath, this being the top of the brain here.
So this is the front of the head, that’s the back of the head.
So that would make this the left brain hemisphere and this the right brain hemisphere, if you could visualize that.
But look, picture it as if you’re taking the brain and lifting it up like this.
Here’s my left side of my brain.
I’m lifting it up like this.
You’re seeing it from underneath.
So that’s the left brain hemisphere.
That’s the right brain hemisphere.
I’m sorry, it’s backwards.
This is the left brain hemisphere here, the left brain on that side, and that’s the right.
So if you tilted this down this way, that would be the front of the head.
Okay, now here the brain is labeled violent because I’ll tell you about the person, the types of individuals that were scanned for these two images.
This person was not given a standard Western educational upbringing, did not watch a lot of television, did not eat a Western diet,
meditated a small amount on a daily basis and they have global EEG coherence
this person was brought up in the Western educational system they watched
many hours of television a day didn’t really do a lot of reading never
meditated ate a very Western fast food type diet and that’s what their brain
ended up looking like you can see that really the real damaged part the real
electrically dead part of the brain is right there on the right hemisphere see
because they became like a controller and it’s labeled violent this person had
violent tendencies and had problems you know behavioral issues possibly I’m not
sure if it ended up in problems with you know law but that’s what a left brain
imbalance neocortex ends up looking like that person became very heavily left
brain imbalance and you can see all the areas of electrochemical deadness of the
brain so that’s what brain imbalance does to the brain physiology it’s
measurable it’s provable this is a type of scan that shows this type of
imbalance and this is called a PET scan there’s other even more advanced scans
called SPECT scans that you can look into to show the the neocortex and how
how brain imbalance begins to affect the electrochemical properties of the brain.
So what we’re really going to look at in part two is how this imbalance is at work in the world
and how it’s ultimately creating all the problems that we see in manifestation in the outside world.
And what we’re seeing is that consciousness is ultimately being torn apart in most people
by the imbalance to the male energy.
And it is the suppression of emotions,
the sacred feminine, the Holy Spirit, the Divine Mother,
the feminine aspect of consciousness, our emotions,
that is really what is driving this.
Our emotions are being so numbed, kept down, ignored,
and ultimately killed.
the sacred feminine is being killed in our world and that’s our emotional aspect of consciousness
and when that happens the yang energy begins to dominate because we’re out of touch with
the feminine aspect of ourselves the intuitive compassionate side of who we are and we’re
we’re being ruled by this yang energy the male dominator principle of energy when in fact what
we need to do is unite these and help them to come into equilibrium and exist harmoniously in
all individuals that’s the ultimate goal so this is a painting by the artist alex gray a great
spiritual artist. This is my favorite painting by him called Gaia. It’s the last slide of
part one. And in here he brilliantly depicts what happens when we lose touch with the right
brain side of ourselves. If you imagine yourself as the world tree that he’s painting in this
image, this would be the right brain, that would be the left brain. You’re facing this
way and he shows but with the total imbalance to the left brain the world is on fire there’s
pollution that there’s you know smog in the sky there’s rivers of blood um the tree is completely
sick and uh it’s just utter chaos but if we get in touch with our right brain hemisphere and we
unite the brain hemispheres then we can build a world like this of peace nature and harmony
blue skies sun ruling the sky and uh it’s just a great depiction of uh you know what uh going into
certain modalities of consciousness through the left and right brain can bring into manifestation
in the world and that’s why i think it’s a great painting by a great artist and it’s a great place
to end part one and in part two we will look at what happens when this type of brain imbalance
comes into fruition in our world and that’s exactly what has happened and we’ll talk about
the forces that are driving that imbalance that left brain imbalance and ultimately holding
the consciousness of this planet where it currently is
because they benefit from it being held there.
And we’ll talk about what those forces are
and we’ll talk about how they operate
to accomplish this imbalance within consciousness.
That’s the end of part one.
Be back for part two.
Thank you.
