While
duality is a property of life and being alive, and while duality persists
through stages of the dying process, duality does not exist once the dying
process reaches the stage where consciousness realizes the body is
relinquishing its hold on the mind, or electromagnetic force which controls all
human thought processes. When consciousness acknowledges the end is near, the
mind undergoes a transformative process in preparation for reintegration with
Unity.
During
the first stage of the purification process as the mind succumbs to the
transition to death, duality is thwarted. Consciousness must be purified of all
attachments to life, material objects, and corporeal relationships. In order to
detach from the material realm, and as part of the purification process,
consciousness must be purged of all personal desires. The manner in which consciousness
separates from desire and material attachments arises from an initial period of
complete immersion into suffering.
As
the Buddha explained, suffering is the result of desire. During one’s lifetime,
the symbiotic relationship between suffering and desire renders itself as most
obvious occurs through one of two phenomena: either the individual’s expectations
regarding their desire is unmet which results in suffering by the desirer
through feelings of loss and disappointment, or the free will of some other
individual is thwarted when the desirer’s wish is fulfilled which leads to
suffering felt by the one whose will is thwarted, causing disharmony between
the two individuals, ultimately yielding a commensurate level or degree of
disharmony in the relationship between the two individuals. In the latter
instance, the desirer will end up feeling some degree of suffering because of
the disturbance in the relationship, a lack of trust will arise, enmity could
intercede, a potential loss of opportunities in the future is likely to evolve,
and the result still reveals itself as disappointment, loss, and consequent
suffering, now by both people involved in the situation.
The
dynamic just described constitutes the essence of how karma accumulates from
our actions, deeds and desires, and affects our world through future
situations, circumstances, and forces which take place as a result of our
earlier actions. Karma is a natural process constantly at play in our lives because
we are constantly acting and desiring in life. N science, we learn that every
action causes an opposite and equal reaction. The same principle comes to play
in the accumulation and working out of karma. The laws of cause and effect
create a symbiotic relationship which must always be equilibrated. Karma need
not always be balanced immediately. Indeed, it may take years or decades. In
some instances, karma does not even become equilibrated during one’s lifetime.
When
accumulated karma has not been equilibrated during one’s lifetime, it must be purified
during the transition through death to reintegration. The purification of un-equilibrated
karma is one of the forces coming into play causing the intercession of
suffering during the process of transition through death to reintegration.
Another factor leading to the mediation of suffering during the transition
results from an individual’s remaining attachment to personal desire.
In
both of the circumstances presented above, suffering reveals itself as being an
efficacious cure for an individual’s persisting desires. Suffering leads the
consciousness to dwell on its cause. During the transition from life through
death to reintegration, the mind loses its connection to the body. When the
mind-body connection is lost, a consequent disconnection with other individuals
from one’s life occurs. When the individual consciousness is left as the sole being
to whom one must justify one’s actions, the need to create excuses, blame
others, or otherwise create rationalizations no longer exists. Hence, the individual
is finally capable of acknowledging faults, mistakes, and undesirable qualities.
In such a psychological environment, the ego recedes as a motivator and
controller of the mind, an honest assessment of the self can occur, and attachments
to desires reveal themselves to the consciousness readily.
When
the ego recedes into the background of the personality during the transition,
the super-conscious assumes the dominant role in the mind. The super-conscious
lacks any attachment to fear as well as the need to overcompensate or create
false self-images, an overblown sense of self-importance, or deny personal
responsibility for one’s life conditions as a result of actions and desires.
Consequently, the super-conscious is capable of arriving at fair and unbiased
judgments. The super-conscious also has no attachments to anything, so it can
shed all of the individual’s previous desires and left over karma.
The
physical process of dying can be instantaneous or drawn out. In either event,
the physical process has pain and suffering attached to it. However, the
physical process is only a detachment of consciousness from the body. Once consciousness
separates from the body, there is a period of time while the electromagnetic
field which comprises individual consciousness persists. Eventually that field
will dissipate and join with the Earth’s electromagnetic field. During the slow
period of dissipation, consciousness undergoes the purification process. As
elements of the mind become purified of desire and karma is release, those
portions of the electromagnetic field dissipate and become integrated into the
Earth’s electromagnetic field – what scientists call the magnetosphere.
The
planet is a living ecosystem and, consequently, has a consciousness which is
the source of our awareness, the mother of our minds. The magnetosphere is the
Earth’s consciousness. Ultimately, when the purification process has been
completed, the rest of the individual’s consciousness reintegrates with the
planetary consciousness, its source, and the entirety of the purified
individual is subsumed by the planetary consciousness. But we are getting ahead
of ourselves.
As
I explained earlier, the process of purification is the first stage in the
transition from life through death into reintegration with the All. The second
stage in this process is the conversion of the individual’s purified
consciousness into a state of pure love. It is during this conversion when the
individual gains an apprehension of meaning. An intense white light looms in
front of the imagination – the mind’s eye which continues to populate thoughts
with imagery, allowing the mind to continue to root transcendental experience in
familiar forms, thus facilitating comprehension by the consciousness. The light
radiates with the energy of pure love. This light washes over and through the
consciousness of the individual infusing its essence back into the mind. An
energy exchange takes place which the individual consciousness accept pure love
into its while the totality of the individual’s purified life experiences are
reintegrated with the planetary consciousness, enriching it with the totality
of the super-conscious’ self.
As
the individual’s mind becomes infused with the energy of pure love from the
planetary consciousness, the mind sees the self walking into the light. The
further into the light the mind walks, the more of this pure love energy bathes
the “soul,” or super-conscious. Simultaneously, the further one walks into the
light, the more of one’s totality of experience reunites with the planetary
consciousness, reintegrating, becoming one.
Let
me explain why I call this process “reintegration.”
Initially,
when we are born, a small piece of the planetary consciousness attaches itself
to the body of a fetus. This occurs at the moment the fetus gains
self-awareness which is the moment individual consciousness and the ego are
born. As an ego with an individual consciousness is born, a separation occurs
from the planetary consciousness. This process occurs as the electromagnetic
field of the fetus separates from the mother’s in the womb and a new identity
comes to life. At the same moment, this new electromagnetic field acquires it’s
uniqueness by chipping off a bit of the planetary electromagnetic field.
There
is significance to the separation of the individual from the All. Prior to separation,
the embryonic new consciousness lives in oneness with pure love and the
planetary consciousness and does not self-identify. However, in the split, dissociation
occurs. The ego comes into being with unique qualities. These unique qualities
are the bits and pieces of the planetary consciousness which the newly forming
individual consciousness brings with it. The bits are influences bequeathed to
the new consciousness from the planetary consciousness’ storehouse of memory,
experience, and essence from what it has gained when pervious individuals died
and reintegrated.
Out
of the stuff which consciousness brought with it as the new consciousness comes
into being is what one might call, soul memories. Within these soul memories are
contained apprehensions of what many people interpret as being memories from previous
incarnations. It is out of this disintegration from the All which provides for
the newly emerging consciousness the basic framework for the personality it
will develop during the lifetime. This basic framework and its attendant soul
memories are often accessible by individual’s whose consciousnesses are less
dissociated than those who cannot access those memories. However, because of
the dissociation which occurs in the process of being born, most people who can
access these soul memories misinterpret them as being memories of actual previous
lifetimes or incarnations they lived. This misinterpretation gave rise to the
theory of reincarnation.
Really,
what we are can be summed up as pieces of the all. In that sense, we are not
really separate from each other. Rather, we are all made up of different pieces
of the same single Earth consciousness in the same way that the different
personalities within a person who suffers from multiple personality disorder
are all really the same person. If I harm you or your harm me, we are actually
harming ourselves at the same time. Because we are really all one, or perhaps
more accurately, different pieces of the same One, and because we emanate from
a source which is comprised of pure love, it is utterly contrary to our purpose
for existence as well as contrary to our essential nature to be anything other
than love or to express anything other than love in our lives. By understanding
this concept, one can clearly see why wars, bigotry, hate, violence, anger, and
anything else which causes separation and division among us is also contrary to
our purpose for being alive as well as the meaning of life.
We
are here to accumulate experience and bring experience back with us to enrich
the planetary consciousness. We are here to experience love and spread love to
bring the love back with us to enhance the One consciousness. We are here to
share, grow, learn, understand, and ultimately, through our love heighten and
raise our consciousness to bring ourselves back to the All on a higher arc and
life it to a higher vibratory level as a consequence. If we lived according to
those principles, we’d find meaning, fulfillment, and purpose without
diminishing anyone or anything else. We will, as a species, have to learn and
accept these principles if we are ever to create a more utopian culture on the
planet, reach our highest potential, live in peace, and accomplish our greatest
achievements.
