Whirled Peas and Realizing Reality
by Zen Gardner
Beyond the “whirled” mishmash we call our current world
there is a true reality that has very little to do with this one. It is
energetic, harmonious and joyful. It is empowered by the fundamental forces of
deep cosmic nature Itself. It is ecstatically alive and continually creating,
bristling with excitement, colors, thrills and astounding beauty where peace
and joy reign supreme.
Where we find ourselves here is just a faint hint of where
we truly belong and essentially already live.
We know there is something wrong in this earthly experience
and that there is so much more to real life than what we see here. Free land is
held by “owners”, laws restrict freedom, everything must be purchased thus
obligating lives of servitude, and the very clockwork of anti-human machinery
limits and abuses our true reality to its core.
Until we wake up.
The Zero Point of Realization
When you find out what’s really going on everything changes.
Your entire perspective shifts and in fact keeps on shifting as new
realizations dawn on your consciousness. Some people come to this zero point
directly through profound spiritual experiences, while others come at it
informationally, but the two will converge sooner or later as our persistent
pursuit of putting the pieces together continues until another dimension comes
into our reality and everything makes sense at multiple levels.
Even those new realizations will keep on shifting as deeper
and deeper we meld with this wonderful sensation of awakening. It actually
surpasses the senses, at least as we had them defined by our finite, programmed
minds. What eventually surfaces from either direction is that we are so much
more than our small individual selves. We learn we are intrinsic parts of the
whole, and are inextricably connected to all forms of life both seen and
unseen.
Even more profound is realizing our very essence is simply
consciousness and that we can actually detach from the experience we call
ourselves and observe objectively who we truly are as eternal spirit having
this human experience. We each are simply a part of this collective wonder of
existence that have our own unique expression. We’re clearly influenced by our
genetic and ancestral heritige, upbringing and social environment, but we are
not bound by them, and can learn to operate from this higher level of knowledge
and understanding and so become who we in fact already are.
Not a cumulative product, but a spark of infinity
rediscovering itself in this strange new environment.
Our Paradoxical Lives
Synthesizing information in this new found awareness then
becomes thrilling, while at the same time a daily challenge. Being well
informed about the illusory nature of this level of existence we’ve been
injected into is imperative in order to stay free from its many traps and
ensnarements. Yet that same information can be very dark and weighty at times
as we learn to get a handle on this seeming paradox called life.
Ours is to detach from it yet to be involved in it at the
same time. We’ve been taught that such detachment was only for the super
enlightened ones who generally were these high and mighty ethereal ascetics who
had fully devoted their lives to more or less constant meditation as well as
the teaching of their wisdom.
But in reality, this ability to live a consciously aware and
empowered life is available to all and a very natural path for each of us. This
elevating people to hero, guru, avatar, savior or some other sort of demigod is
a social engineering mechanism that is both imposed by social manipulators, as
well as something readily adopted by those who don’t want to make the effort
nor take the responsibility to fully realize themselves and live consciously.
This conveniently passes the buck so most of lazy humanity can go back to their
life of seeming ease and comfort.
But as we know, true happiness will always elude them. It’s
very sad, as this same potential lies within every human spirit.
Why Do People Shun the Truth?
Addiction to pride and ego mainly. Materialism and power
issues are secondary as they try to mold the world around them into what is
best for them and their limited understanding of the human condition. We’ve all
done that to some extent before we awoke from slumber. But these attachments
become addictions that grow more and more difficult to shed.
Self image and reputation in the eyes of others is how
they’ve judged their whole lives leading up to whatever point or points their
conscience gets pricked by these inconvenient bothersome notions of truth and
unselfish love. Each time it is turned away their spiritual and moral
callousness grows thicker until only a radical shake up can get their
attention.
People who have near death experiences are the perfect
example of an abrupt awakening. No matter what account you read, people who
undergo this or similar events invariably become extremely spiritual and
transcendent in their approach to life and are often moved to not just a
changed career path, but to a life of activism, as they feel the force of love
compelling them to share their profound enlightening experience and what
they’ve learned with as many as possible.
The Royal Shaft, Religion and Demagoguery
Another form of passing the responsibility buck is
humanity’s treatment of and attitude towards those in power. This is especially
true, and most disturbingly, with so-called royalty and religious leaders.
They’re cut from the same dark cloth, playing on controlling social archetypes
and symbolism passed through the collective mind reinforced by ritual
entrancement.
Disempowerment in order to curtail disobedience or even
revolt is the name of their game. It’s the same with political leaders, and
there it’s even trickier as they learned that if people thought their leaders
were “elected” they’d be even more compliant. And it’s worked – up until now.
Awakening from the induced stupor of this contrived social
programming called the world, or the “whirled” as I like to call it, changes
everything. Rather than continue operating on their level, suddenly it’s a
whole new playing field. The abject lie of these supplanting interlopers
becomes almost comical in its stark nakedness. The emperors really don’t have
any clothes and reality is laid bare. This is when the fun begins as the once
enthralled and obedient masses snap out of their hypnotic state, point and
laugh at the imposters, and walk away.
Without our attention and support, never mind obedience or
tribute, the house of cards comes tumbling down.
And Today?
We’re in very complex and confusing times but with the same
basic modus operandi: Dominate and control in every possible way. With
technology exponentially increasing in the hands of psychopaths this clearly
does create new challenges.
But fundamentally it’s the same game. It’s consciousness
versus low level control mechanisms, whatever form they may take. Don’t be
enthralled by all the technological “advances”, it’s just the same game.
We mustn’t be daunted by their high tech devices and
crypto-occultism, they all boil down to the same thing. Low level attempts to
quash humanity and keep us from discovering who we truly are and our enormous
potential as infinite resources of creation. This is what freaks them out.
They can only imitate. They cannot connect with Source
because they have no heart. We have heart, the heart of the marvelous living
creative Source inside of us. They do not. There is no contest.
We simply need to realize our true divinity and manifest it,
in each and every glorious way we’re led.
Lights on, and activate your inner knowing. Bold, brave, and
unafraid in full on ecstasy!
This contest is for real. Let’s blind them by our light and
scatter the cockroaches into the dustbin of ancient history.
Turn the light on and leave it on!
Love always, Zen
