Anarchistbanjo's World

After a person has crossed the great abyss and merged their soul and consciousness with the Godhead they are released! They are filled with the light and energy of the Godhead and the time comes for them to return back to ordinary physical existence bringing that light and energy back down to earth with them. They learn that outer reality is intimately connected to inner reality. They have achieved real wisdom and gained recognition of their own level of achievement and mastery in life. They have integrated their own spiritual nature and now they need to integrate their shadow aspect.

They become the legendary philosopher’s stone which transmutes all that come in contact with it. They become a circle whose center is nowhere and whose circumference is everywhere. They are who or whatever they choose to identify with. They learn to consciously control self at all levels of existence. They become multidimensional and reawaken their emotions and their physical bodies. They regain control over their surroundings and pursue their true purpose in life for the very first time.

Like the artist that is completely free to paint whatever they choose, these people can do whatever they choose in life as long as they allow others the same freedom. Life becomes a true joy and an expression of self through all levels of existence.

Their duty and purpose in life is to just be themselves. By doing this they transmute all that comes in contact with them and inspire people to a higher level of living through living example.

They are not all knowing or all-powerful. They are only as knowledgeable and powerful as their belief system allows them to be. This is the real secret of their power and ability. Their belief system is open-ended and harmonious at all levels. They can learn as much about anything as they wish before going on to something else.

Their belief system is all-inclusive. It includes the entire cosmos. Their belief system is entirely integrated. It is like a hologram in which each part contains every other part.

The things that cannot be comprehended are considered nonself and there is a powerful attraction between what they know and what they desire to know.

Learning is an area of intense bliss and these people will joyously spend the rest of their lives learning all they can about physical reality. They have traveled through the different levels of awareness and now they long to become creative in those levels. This is the indescribable experience of non-duality or total union with God.

There is a sense of gentle loving and sharing that completely fills them. They are the key or microcosm and the universe or macrocosm is the lock. The key is all they are capable of knowing and the lock is all that is possible to become.

As the microcosm becomes more like the macrocosm, they gain power and strength from the fabric of the cosmos. They use this creative power to achieve their ultimate purpose in life.

In their struggle to reintegrate with physical reality they are active on all planes as they develop various astral bodies, unify those astral bodies into a single soul and develop their creative powers. Physical reality continues to stubbornly resist their efforts but must that last give way and they move forward in triumph. They are exploring the mystery of change and how to achieve their true destinys.

The life of an ordinary person consists of one step forward and one step backward in a zero-sum game. That is why it is so hard to get anywhere without compromising who you are or what you desire. The people who have attained this level use both sides of their nature to make each step move forward in an unstoppable manner as they move toward the desired goal. The shadow self and the spiritual self-work together toward a common goal under the direction and rulership of the true human ego.

True empowerment comes from a fully integrated belief system and lifestyle that harmonizes both the physical and spiritual sides of human nature. This fully integrated belief system is unique and individual to each one of us. We can read other authors, study other systems and philosophies, but in the end the only thing that matters is our belief system and how well we have integrated it.

Each one of us is a prisoner of our own beliefs, bias and experience. The only way to break free is through outside help! To think outside the box we need exposure to thoughts that are not our own. Sharing our thoughts with others and listening to their thoughts is an important function that we do for each other!

The same thing can be said for books that we read, movies that we see, classes that we take and the new things that we do. But something needs to be said that’s very important. If anyone tells you that they have the answers that you are looking for alarm bells should begin ringing out once! No one has your answers! They only have their answers!

The best that they can do for us and that we can do for them is to stimulate thought, challenge assumptions and help us to clarify our positions so that we understand ourselves better and help them to understand themselves better. We act as catalyst for each other! A true catalyst causes change but remains independent of that change and is not part of the final outcome.

I don’t want anyone to believe the way that I do. What I’m trying to do in these posts is challenge people to think about things that they probably haven’t thought about before! Once they have thought about these things they can decide for themselves what their own belief is. That’s what I’m trying to do for you and that’s what others have done for me!

My freedom only exists when I take it for myself and own it! When I do this I become master of my own destiny. The freedom that the people talk about is hollow because they are asking the government to grant it to them. It is not recognized that freedom is essentially self liberation and always will be! We can only have as much freedom as we take for ourselves.

When the government gives you freedom, it is simply giving you something that it doesn’t have the right to give. Your freedom does not belong to the government, it belongs to you and you must take it for yourself!

This is the difference between self liberation and emancipation. The people that are screaming for freedom today are screaming to be set free! They want the government to emancipate them! What they really need to do is act as if they were free and then they would be free! If you don’t act as if you were free, you are not worthy of it and you wouldn’t act as a free person even if the government said you’re free. Don’t kid yourself!

A person who is set free is only a person who has been freed! To be emancipated does not mean that you are free! Because freedom is in the heart and in the soul and in the mind and in the attitude! The government can set you free but if you don’t set yourself free then it is all a lie!

The dying sun sheds crimson gloom
Across the sullen bay
The witch wind howls through naked trees
And lashes ocean spray
Down a darkened stony trail
A traveler makes his way

Tattered cloak hides mighty thews
Windswept hair veils eyes
But teardrops glisten on his face
His gaze on scarlet skies
A muffled sob, a shattered dream
The bleeding sun, it dies

Other dreams have gone before
Still this one hurts the most
His golden Angel shining bright
Is but a fragile broken ghost
Pain gleaming in his eyes
He walks alone along the coast

He stops to gaze around him
Smells the keen salt air
And glories at the twilight
As the wind whips through his hair
Standing tall against the night
A fortress resting there

The silver moon rides soft and slow
It’s light burns bright and clear
Moonbeams dance among the leaves
And shyly hover near
They play upon his lonely face
And touch a glistening tear

They stroke his rough unshaven cheeks
And kiss his fevered lips
Along his strong and hardened chest
A gentle finger slips
Another’s playing in his eyes
Where crystal water drips

Bringing peace on wings of love
To the traveler in their light
They set his soul aflame with dreams
And now his eyes glow bright
As he sings a song against the wind
And strides into the night

One of the greatest joys in life is to learn new things and gain an increased awareness of our world. Being conscious and aware is what this mental energy is all about. We use this energy when we absorb and learn from our environment. We develop it by becoming walking question marks. We are curious and listen to others and learn all we can. At first we are accepting of what others tell us without question. Authorities tell us what to do and we do it. Each human is highly suggestible and responds to external authorities instinctively.

Mental energy is developed as we make mistakes and learn from those mistakes. This energy is not creative except in the ability to learn. At first we make mistakes and don’t learn from them. As we acquire more of this energy we learn and don’t repeat those mistakes.

As our life experience accumulates we devise strategies and systems that get us through each situation. These are mental programs like how to drive a car or ride a bicycle. The more mental energy we have, the more complex our mental programs can be.

The human brain works like a computer program. Instead of treating each situation as unique we devise programs to get the things we want. At first we try all behavior patterns to see if they will work in new situations. Later we take programs from successful people and try to make their programs work for us. When they don’t work we learn from those mistakes as well and alter the programs until they do work for us.

We all have a tendency to use old behaviors in new situations. A truly successful program will get a person what they want. The magnetic charm or appeal of this person comes from a well polished and perfected program that allows him or her to be the best at whatever they do.

This is the smooth talker that can charm the opposite sex and break hearts. This is the business person that is highly proficient and productive in his job or skill. This person uses a program to become an expert and is highly predictable. He cannot easily deviate from his program and may become trapped in it when it doesn’t work. The more developed this astral body is, the more adaptive, resourceful and universal our program becomes.

In summary we first absorb and learn from our environment. After we understand what is expected of us we try doing things and fall flat on our faces because of inexperience. We are easily influenced by authority figures. Ultimately we find doing what other people tell us to do is not rewarding and does not bring us any closer to our hopes and dreams. That is when we begin the slow and hard task to devise programs that work for us.

It’s easy to admire the person that is talented and slick. We want to become like them because they make it look so easy. The danger lies in becoming stuck in behavior patterns that no longer work. A good goal is to become highly skilled and adaptable at the same time. A well-rounded education and general knowledge plus life experience gives a solid foundation for specialized knowledge.

One of the highest mystical states known to man is called crossing the great abyss, cosmic consciousness or Christ consciousness. This is the point where personal awareness merges permanently with the collective intelligence of the human race. This is where our souls can achieve a state of transcendence and unity. A perfect bridge of understanding is created and this bridge allows constant communication between the mental and spiritual planes.

At this point we have completed the holy tree of life within us. The trunk and branches are solid channels for spiritual energies. The roots are buried deeply in the mysterious earth and thick leaves cover branches that reach up to the stars. This analogy means that we have constructed a personal belief system that allows us to function at will on the spiritual planes and the mental planes.

Here we find love of self and love of others combined. We see others as mere illusions or extensions of ourselves. We perceive that we are real and everything else is illusion. We are a drop of spirit slipping into a great spiritual sea where we seek to lose ourselves among the other drops.

Somehow we must rise above these feelings and recognize that others are just as real as we are. Our task becomes helping others on their spiritual journey. This is the path of return to the physical world. All karmic residue becomes ashes at this point. Our karma has been consumed and we become liberated.

We discover that there is no supreme deity except the one within our hearts. All truth is unknowable and replaced by realized truth which is individual for each person. This realized truth is revealed by the Christ spirit within our hearts a little at a time. Each one of us must seek our own truth deep within our hearts. This is an individual journey.

We see the forces of chaos and order locked in an eternal loving embrace. The male energy represents expansive chaos energy and the will to change the physical world. This is the urge to become a cocreator with God.

The female energy represents restrictive order and the way things are now. As male energy joins together with female energy and becomes balanced all the other levels manifest as well. The duality that creates the universe is perceived as a balance of male expansion and female embrace. The entire universe is created out of love.

As co-creators we want to achieve our own personal desires as well as the upliftment of humanity. We desire to change the way things are. Physical reality resists us fiercely and we are stripped of all power and attainment. This is the mystery of sorrow and the physical world seeks to eject us.We don’t belong in the physical world any more.

95% of our communications are nonverbal and transmitted through body language and other sensory details. Our bodies don’t lie! Whenever you try to be dishonest and hide your true feelings or thoughts your body will give you away! Now maybe the other person is not consciously aware of your deception but unconsciously they are aware of your deception. In the same manner we are aware of the deceptions of others through their body language and nonverbal communications whether we are conscious of those deceptions are not.

We might like to believe or imagine that this is not true, that we can lie to our spouse or to our best friend and they will not know the truth. On some level they do know the truth and on some level we know the truth that they are trying to hide. We might as well admit this and come out in the open about it. Otherwise things really get twisted.

A win-win situation is not possible when deception exists, especially when that deception is not recognized consciously but is recognized unconsciously. The only way for a win-win situation is to be as open and honest as possible in all ways and at all times.

It’s far more powerful to harmonize our communications with our body language and nonverbal communications! When we do this we can communicate honestly and openly and we can expect an honest and open response.

Nothing succeeds like excess! I have tried sharing blogs before with limited success. But I’ve never done anything like what I’m doing right now posting four or five blogs a day! I’m trying to be honest, as honest as possible. But I’m also trying to break through the barrier of resistance which my posts often encounter. I’m posting because I care about this world and about society and I’m worried about the direction it will go if we can’t find a win-win situation! This is my way of being honest!

I secure my freedom in the world to the degree that I make the world my own. It belongs to me to the degree that I gain it and take possession of it for myself, in whatever way that I can. If I am weak, then the means that I use to make the world my own are not very strong.

Society demands that we always play by the rules which it has created for us. That makes it a rigged game that can’t be won honestly. It’s too easy to say, “break the rules!” So I won’t. Instead I suggest playing a totally different game, one that doesn’t directly break the rules that society imposes upon us, but instead finds unregulated frontiers where we can pursue our own dreams and visions without directly confronting society.

We have the right to pursue our own dreams and visions in life and the right to never give up striving for them. There are times when I might give up a course of action because it is simply not getting me where I want to go. That doesn’t mean I’m giving up on my goal! I’m just finding a way to get around the rock that stands in my way, and if I can’t get around it I will find a way to destroy it. There are infinite possibilities within the present moment and we only need to find the ones that are right for us!

I can get around the laws of society until I have the strength to directly confront them. We start small and gradually get stronger in our ability to go our own way. This is the way it has always been. External authority demands our submission but at some point in time a strong man or woman will stand up against that authority and refuse to submit! The masses always watch in astonishment as they wait for the upstart to be destroyed. They shout out warnings in vain, yet the strong man or woman who refuses to submit remains standing and finally the masses become silent. The strong man or woman has won!

Freedom is only freedom when you take it for yourself! It can never be given!
