Anarchistbanjo's World

My awareness shifting meditations have really demonstrated and proven to me beyond all doubt that what we call consciousness or awareness definitely makes use of filters. Once I realized this it really became obvious.

When I would shift my point of awareness of consciousness to the Solar Plexus center for example, I experienced total awareness from the emotions because the Solar Plexus is a center of emotional energies. It felt very different from when my awareness or consciousness was focused in the throat center for example. But we miss the obvious. How many times are we unable to focus or concentrate on something because we are emotionally angry or disturbed? We are distracted. But what is really happening is that our awareness or focus of consciousness is caught up in those emotions. It is extremely difficult to shift to a more calm and intellectual stance or position. This shifting of awareness or consciousness happens naturally and it happens all the time!

But I was shifting from energy body to energy body and from chakra center to chakra center. Most people are even more fragmented than that. We have personality fragments or valences that we shift between in our daily life. How many of you become like small children when you interact with your parents? How many become a totally different person when you are interacting with your own children, your lover or your boss? It is as if we change masks depending on the situation we find ourselves in. Wouldn’t it be better if we were able to simply be ourselves? Be a healthy and balanced individual?

So we are constantly shifting our awareness from one filter to another. We are fragmented and it is the task of the ego to hold our sense of self together! The development of the soul is the gathering of these many pieces together and uniting them into one self, one soul under the guidance of one sense of self, one ego. This is what mental and emotional health is all about. This is what the shamanic soul retrieval is all about, gathering the scattered pieces of our soul back together again.

So we have very real evidence and proof of soul fragments, or masks that we wear in our interactions in the world. We also have strong evidence of the multi-dimensional nature of awareness or consciousness and the soul. Our awareness shifts in and out of one energy and into another as we try to cope with a multi-dimensional reality.

Intuitively we understand that it is better to have an integrated sense of self or soul than a fragmented one. The more integrated we are, the more balanced we are. And this integration centers around developing a strong and healthy sense of self or ego. It helps to feel good about who we are and what we are able to do.

These things seem almost self evident, yet the twisted world of the materialist denies any multi-dimensionality. It denies the importance of integrating these fragments and instead advocates “selflessness”! The ego and sense of self is bad!

Imagine the damage to the multi-dimensional soul when a person only identifies with the physical body. What happens to that multi-dimensional soul when the physical body dies and decays? How can the “sense of self” hold together? The answer is that it can’t.

The simplest way to develop self esteem is helping and allowing people to develop competence in life. Why does our society focus on dependence instead? Why is external authority more important than internal authority? Especially when we know better!
