Don’t be distracted by the feelings of isolation. We are all in this ocean of consciousness, plunged into isolation by our own mental trappings. Once we change our perception to knowing our true nature, we begin to see we are the vast oceans, we are the void, we are the light of consciousness. Just like the bubbling spring is connected to inlets and tributaries on the surface and to the ever-flowing streams underground.
Don’t allow yourself to drift aside oar-less and separate on the surface of life. Wholeness requires we flow from beneath the surface and add our essence to the oneness on the surface.
Our heartbeat, our life cycle, and our day to day sometimes distract us by keeping our focus on time and push us toward separateness. Love, Unity, and our True Nature exists outside of time. When we accept this realization, it becomes the key in the lock that releases us. Life can take on new meaning of everyone and everything in this universe interconnected into a beautiful tapestry. We need to nourish our “Being” with a retreat from the illusion of separateness by returning to stillness. In stillness we can touch the love in us that touches the love in others. Do this until you weave together in unity, becoming unconditional Love. Just as the water droplet joins another and leaves behind its sense of being a single drop to becoming flowing fluid.
Bring this new sense of being out of the stillness and back into daily life by looking at all the life around and using this non-discriminative ability to understand the true nature of what you see. When we do this, we free ourselves from separateness and see the inter-being of nature. We should be more observant of Mother Earth; Gaia replenishes and renews herself through the cycle of life. So why do we shut ourselves off from this amazing source of birth, death, and rebirth. It’s necessary for us to reach out with our energetic roots and branches and connect with our source.
You and I know there is no such thing as death, so is there such a thing as life? Quantum mechanics proves that there is a non-local part of our existence just as real as thoughts, feelings, and ideas that cannot be measured on an instrument. That leads us to understand that our consciousness resides outside the physical body in our higher consciousness. Our feeling of separateness is a result of our mind grasping and wanting. Our ancestors knew the importance of living in oneness with all living beings and finding unity. So are we truly living this life or just the dreamer with nowhere in particular to go?
Separation from our true nature only occurs in the mind. It is an illusion that becomes our reality if we allow it. We can get lost in our imagined wanderings. Separation can lead us into being more self-deprecating than we ever need to be. We need to focus within on our innermost self until the unseen becomes known and our mind can be without those distracting thoughts. We have been introduced to this life as separate and a spectator of ourselves. Also, we have intrinsic skills as interpreters of our deeds and our nature with understanding and contemplation. As we awaken to our true nature we may use these skills to live in a manner that is in harmony with our higher self. Life is precious to experience and separateness is invaluable as a challenge to overcome.
There are two types of separation within us, the first is the illusion of being separate from everyone and everything else in the universe, then there is the feeling of duality between our Self and Spirit. Eliminating the separation is a key element in our awakening. When we learn to work from within in order to effect change we have taken a small healthy step. Focus on Self Love and watch the duality meld away, as we become comfortable we extend that pure Love outward to encompass the world and radiate into the universe. It is perfectly fine to celebrate your self, honor the self, and delight in delivering your gifts. But always be true to your Self so you may be true to others.
We seek our purpose one and all. Yet purpose is not a legacy, unless it is building upon loving intent for all.
We have been on a path of separation and now we are in a state of initiation. We are beginning to experience new ways of living in a changing world. Let us recreate our lives; the choices we make now will reverberate for a millennium. The best choices will lead us toward shifting our consciousness into an awakened society. The choice is ours.
We are dancers in an age of complexity, expanding & ever-changing. Whirling with truth in our mind, light in our eyes & fire in our hearts.

Very good explained and also true.
When I read about people diqusing consciousness, its strange to read the issue that is been inherent in all of us the Individ, contra the Universe/Life.
We/I/You asume We/i/You lives and/or is the creator of this “reality”, we are not at all the driving force behind all of this, its a multitue of Consciousness, prodjecting outward, and we all created this “reality” within our levels of consciousness.
The notion of the Webb of Life goes as well to the more presisse term, a Webb of flouting consciousnesses, inertlocked and intervoven, thats why we can Eat some of it, because Our Body is composed by a branch of varouse organic entetys cooperating in a close compartment, aka Our Body, and if the consciousness is a result of something, its more doe to the organisations of various levels of consciousness.
All of us/everything, have levels of consciousness, not restricted to volcal sounds witch is the dominante teme about the so caled Intellegence.
There is a multitute of ways of comunicantion, since comunication is the maker of our “reality”.
WE are all individs, living inside a reality created by all of us, incl, our Earth witch is far above and beyound us, so in the vastness and the scale of it, we are not significant at all. How and by what the future brings rests solely on Us as a people, and nobody else.
No outside entety will do this, its belove their dignity to do so, if anyone is to learn anything, its going to be done by the hard way.
Nothing of wourth comes easy, the notion of the worriors way is infact true, the war is inside us all, thats the road we must take, the future we have all the responsebility to create.
Higher levels of consciousness, gives higher levels of energy, that alone gives and feads the collective mind, and then we are able to do things beyound our imagination, witch is staggering narrow and alsmoust totaly blind.
Fogett the Hollywood didotic and their morronic protray of “science” and “mind powers”, thats largly just plain bullshitt and is purly childich perseptions made possible by tecknics, and thats it, I havent seen anything, remotly close to ways reality, some bitt and peasess may be, but forgett that, and expirience it your self, is the ultimate goal.
Like the words of Jehua Ben Joshep.
I am the alfa and the omega, we all are the alfa and the omega, the path is and have been known for milleniums, its to walk that walk and live that talk, thats the Hard way, but the revad, is knowledge and peace of mind.
Its just a dance, love life and life loves you back.
The original notion behand the words You reap what You saw, it goes both ways,posetiv/negative, only in ballance, are you a hole human begin, with controll over the organic body and the inorganic energetic entety.
Of course there is more, that I lleave to You to discover.
peace
