For the Seeker

Because others say it much better than I, and I am not so much interested in being the reason one wakes up, but that one wakes up; I am known to use whatever means necessary. In light of this I am quoting, extensively as they say, from two books I synchronized recently in my life.  They clearly say what I have been talking about in their own way, which I find to be quite lucid. 

Let us start with the master, from "The Religious and Psychological Problems of Alchemy" introduction to Psychology and Alchemy, The Collected Works of C. G. Jung, vol 12, Bollingen Series "When I say as a psychologist that God is an archetype, I mean by that the "type" in the psyche. The word "type"is, as we know, derived from "typos," "blow" or "imprint"; thus an archetype presupposes an imprinter. Psychology as the science of the soul has to confine itself to its subject and guard against overstepping its proper boundaries by metaphysical assertions or other professions of faith. Should it set up a God, even as a hypothetical cause, it would have implicitly claimed the possibility of proving God, thus exceeding its competence in an absolutely illegitimate way. Science can only be science; there are no "scientific" professions of faith and similar "contradictiones in adjecto." We simply do not know the ultimate derivation of the archetype any more than we know the origin of the psyche. The competence of psychology as an empirical science only goes so far as to establish, on the basis of comparative research, whether for instance the imprint found in the psyche can or cannot reasonably be termed a "God-image." Nothing positive or negative as thus been asserted about the possible existence of God, any more than the archetype of the "hero" proves the actual existence of a hero."

One of Carl Jung's students sums this up by saying: This fact of the existence in the psyche of an archetype that man has termed "god," and its actualization through the impact on the conscious mind, takes us to the end of our empirical and psychological statements. All that we can say, strictly speaking, is that religion is a fundamental activity of the human mind, and that there exists an archetypal image of the deity deeply and indestructibly engraved in our psyche. Psychology cannot prove or disprove the existence of God; what it can prove, however, is the existence of an archetypal image of God, the "Self." Here, then, psychology and religion both part and meet, facing each other from different sides of the frontier. All that psychology can legitimately do is to look across and accept the possibility that the "God within us"corresponds to a transcendental reality."

Before we go any further, let's remember one of my favorite quotes that I use in this blog, my boy Hermes Trismegistus. "As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul." This is a fractal. Our ego is the center of our consciousness, and the Self is the center of the unconscious. It is imperative to understand the metaphor. Do not confuse the god in our collective minds, with the thing that created the Universe. If we could somehow magically snap our fingers and make everything our unconscious is doing conscious we would think we were god. In other words, all the things our Self is doing at any given moment is all the stuff humans have attributed to god. Just because they attributed what they could not see to god, doesn't mean it was the thing that actually created the Universe doing all that work. 

God in this sense is the historical one, the active god in our lives, our own unconscious.  The guy in the sky is our own psyche, and all of our psyche's are connected. Now the thing that made the Universe itself is unknowable. No one knows anything about whatever that is. So you see we are talking about two different things when the word god is used, and no where ever am I talking about the thing that actually created existence. That thing cannot be talked about because no one knows anything about it. It's a simple logical line, if we know nothing of something it might as well not exist, or we would know something about it. 

So here, the word god is synonymous with Self, our total Self, our entire psyche, conscious and unconscious. Dreams are the way our unconscious self, speaks to our conscious self, and it does this using symbols. If you compared your conscious aspect with your unconscious aspect, the conscious aspect, the ego, is so limited and so small, that the unconscious is metaphorically speaking god. It simply takes both a bunch of studying the unconscious, and a lot of first hand experience to realize this as a fact.

These next quotes are from the book Dreams: God's Forgotten Language by John A. Sanford. This book would be an excellent book on dreams for someone who is not familiar with Carl Jung. It is not full of technical terms, and one would not need a dictionary much, that being said, one would need a lot more information beyond this book to properly understand exactly what is going on behind the veil of consciousness.

The title of the chapter is The God Within, and it is the last chapter of the book, in which he is properly summing up his thought. He is here talking about the psychological progression that humans have had about god in our recorded history of the last two thousand years or so.

"Consider polytheism as an example. The belief in many gods, goddesses, demons, and spirits was grounded upon the complexity of the psychic forces within us, which were projected outside of us in personified form. So real were these psychic realities that the Fathers of the church never denied their existence. The Fathers simply made it clear that what the pagans took to be gods were in fact demons; lesser psychic powers not meriting worship but nonetheless real.

For instance, consider the goddess Aphrodite. A man falls in love. This has the effect of releasing in him an unexpected flow of energy and passion that was not previously felt by him consciously but was in an unconscious, latent state. He is no longer the same man as he was but is transformed. Because ancient peoples knew they were not the master of this new emotion, but rather it mastered them, they quite reasonable felt themselves affected by a divine being. In the case of the Greeks they named her "Aphrodite." We now can say in view of modern psychology that it is the man's anima who infuses him with this feeling, and floods him with this new energy. But a rose by any name smells just as sweet, and has just as many thorns! Or take the idea of a demon. The ancients would see a man possessed by something that infuses him with a violent energy and destroys his ability to control himself. Anyone could see at a glance the man was possessed by a power superior to that of his ego. The ancients called this superior, possessing energy a "god,"in this case a "demon god." Today we would say the ego is possessed by an autonomous complex, a buried complexity of emotion that suddenly erupts to engulf the ego."

He ends the book with; Jung devoted his lifetime to he description of the process by which the whole person in us is realized. He calls this process individuation. Complete and complex as his description is, there remains much more to be discovered: Realizing our psychic totality is a task of a lifetime. The moments of religious insight when for an instant we know ourselves to be utterly, wonderfully whole are the rare exceptions. Furthermore, realizing our psychic totality is not something we accomplish in isolation. the life of the whole person will necessarily involve us in the lives of our fellows and in the conflicts of our time. Throughout this process of realizing the whole person within us we will be vexed by the need for a continual and painful surrender of our egocentricity. For this is not a process the ego commands, but which it serves; the conscious mind must accept, and consider, the higher authority of the Self. Our dreams are the voice of this higher authority: the God within. And if this God is identical with the final order and meaning of the universe, then our dreams express the will of the transcendent God as well."

Can you see? The ego is subservient to the unconscious; metaphorically we are subservient to god, to our Self. This author is a priest so his job depends on him believing in a transcendental god. This is not my concern though in waking people up. It doesn't matter whatsoever if there is or isn't a creator of the Universe if one cannot even find their own Self. Again: What does it matter if there is or isn't a transcendental god if one cannot even find their own Self.

Now we are going deep. This book Ego and Archetype by Edward F. Edinger is godly. It's unbelievably good. I can't say it enough. The last chapter is called The Philosophers' Stone, and in it he translates into modern language a definition given of the Philosophers' Stone by a famous alchemist, Elias Ashmole. Ashmole had compiled what would be today an enormous amount of historical alchemal information in the 1600s. Alchemy was another metaphorical system for the psyche, like all other religions. The following is the ending of the book, and to me is of the greatest importance because as a child I had both trauma and first hand experiences of the unconscious.

"This passage confirms an observation which has been gradually forming itself in my mind. It is my impression that those who go farthest in the process of individuation almost always have had some meaningful and indeed, decisive experience of the unconscious in childhood. Jung's childhood experience is an excellent example of this. What often seems to happen is that the inadequacies of the childhood environment or the child's adaptational difficulties, or both, generate a loneliness and dissatisfaction that throw him back on himself. This amounts to an influx of libido into the unconscious which is thereby activated and proceeds to produce symbols and value-images which help consolidate the child's threatened individuality. Often secret places or private activities are involved which the child feels are uniquely his and which strengthen his sense of worth in the face of an apparently hostile environment. Such experiences, although not consciously understood or even misunderstood and considered abnormal, leave a sense hat one's personal identity has a transpersonal source of support. They thus may sow the seeds of gratitude and devotion to the source of one's being which emerge in full consciousness only much later in life. 

The text says  this science can be taught only to a few. The knowledge of the archetypal psyche is indeed available only to a few. It derives from inner subjective experience which are scarcely communicable. However, the reality of the psyche is beginning to find witnesses for itself. The Philosophers' Stone is a symbol for that reality. There is a healing power in the images that cluster around this symbol. It is a potent expression of the source and totality of individual being. Whenever it appears in the process of psychotherapy it has a constructive and integrating effect. It is truly a pearl of great price.

This symbol developed over a period of fifteen centuries. It was enriched through the efforts of countless devoted men who were gripped by its numen. They worked largely alone, as individuals, without the supporting containment of an institution. They encountered dangers both from without and from within. On the one hand there were greedy princes and heresy hunters, on the other hand were the dangers of solitude and the activation of the unconscious which it brings. The history itself testifies to the power of the Lapis Philosophorum, a power capable of enlisting energies of so many talented men into its service. It is a grand symbol which has at last come within the reach of modern understanding."

Am I wrong? These men did some homework. Let's be clear though, every spiritual method, religion, philosophy, ever, had a different name of the same thing. Atman, Christ, Higher Self, Self, Soul, Spirit, the Romans called it the daimon. The Greeks used psyche. Take your pick. The alchemists used Philosophers' Stone because that kept them from getting murdered by the church. Their spiritual beliefs were hidden under the guise of actually trying to turn base metals into gold.  

If you would like to honestly know better what is going on in your own mind, I highly recommend the two books cited in this blog.

Modern Magic

I recently finished a book by a famous Occultist who went by the name Dion Fortune titled Applied Magic. This book was so packed full of information that there is no way i could summarize it sufficiently for this blog, so I am going to talk about what is to me, the good stuff. One particular aspect of the book is relevant to what I've been writing about. I say, Pay Attention, because what I am gleaning from this book is incredibly important regarding our every day life.

Before I begin let's think about Dion Fortune. Google her, as I have done. I don't know a lot about her, other than what the casual internet search provides, and that she has written some very popular Occult books. I've been told she became Christian at the end of her life which apparently disappointed many occultists. It's my understanding that she studied what is popularly known as the Golden Dawn school of magic. Be warned, I have not sufficiently studied this topic, yet! I am far away from understanding the history of the different magic schools. I am not pretending to know either. I have simply taken the information gleaned from this book and am applying it to what I already know.

When I talk to people in person about the books, and things I study, they usually do not know what the word Occult means. I always tell them, it is the study of the things one cannot detect with the five senses. An Occultist uses, manipulates, and studies the forces that cannot be seen by the normal (five) monkey senses. Through out history many words have been given to this practice. I prefer the word Magic. Some have suggested this word is outdated, but I don't know another word to use. 

If one has the traditional American cultural software running their mind, then the unseen forces seem magical, mystical, and/or metaphysical. The typical in-cultured American individual has an extremely materialist view of Nature. Some would probably want to use the word scientific, but that's something I would argue, that these people have a scientific view. It should be clear by now though, by simply reading layman termed quantum physics articles, that there is much more going on behind the scenes than meets the eye. Remember, I've spent most of my research time attempting to turn metaphysical language into the physical, that is to say, there is a practical physical explanation for the unseen. There is a practical natural explanation for spiritual phenomenon. Physics in effect. The electromagnetic force is operating in our lives in scientifically undetectable ways. We must open our minds, beyond what this culture has taught us, to see what is really going on right in front of our faces. 

I'm not kidding, this book is packed with tons of information. Every page. Page after page. Having not studied magic yet, it seems to me she covers the basics. Even though I have not studied magic specifically, I have studied alchemy, and other esoteric topics. I highly recommend this book for the purposes of widening ones view of Nature, and human history. This magic business has been going on for quite awhile now. Like I said, one could say this is only a beginner book. It explains the general concepts. Dion Fortune defines the terms. It doesn't go into great detail regarding how to use magic per se. There are no spells in this book. No glyphs, graphs, or drawn symbols. No incantations or prayers. It simply explains the basis for Magic. I'm not going to cover all the different topics Fortune covered, that would make for another book. I'm going to cover the basis of what is magic, and what it means to us, here now, in my own electromagnetic terms. I could definitely say, that without some previous knowledge of the occult this book could potentially be difficult to read.

One of my favorite experiences of life, which happens to me regularly, is to learn things on my own, only to have the book synchronized after the fact. When I look back on many of the things I was doing, "back in the day", following my intuition, I would never have thought to call it magic. Back then I would have been like most people I know, and said Magic is horseshit, just like I used to say about astrology.

What is Magic? There is a popular quote by a famous anthropologist named Margaret Mead who said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." I wonder how she knew that? Did she study magic too? Because this quote is the very fundamental of magic. This quote summarizes Magic almost completely. 

Remember now that words are power. So for instance, if I use the wrong word, I may lose a certain number of readers. For instance, if atheists are reading this blog and I start talking about god; conversation is over for them. They will not hear what I am saying. They won't even attempt it. A hardcore atheist is so sure there is no god, they will not hear a word about it. It is possible I've lost readers just using the word magic. I am asking you to open your mind, to see past the words in order to see the thing of which I am talking about. Don't let the words prevent you from experiencing the phenomenon. It doesn't matter what words you want to use, the phenomenon is real, even if we can't physically see it. 

Dion Fortune used the word Elemental. I do not like this word. I played Dungeons and Dragons as a kid. I've read hundreds of fantasy books. For me, elemental is not the right word. I am going to use Force. Much like the Greek gods, and how they can be explained as forces in the Universe that operate within the collective human psyche. Dion Fortunes term, an Elemental, is too old school, I'm going to think of it as an electromagnetic force.

So what am I talking about? Put simply, using a very real hypothetical, let's say, we have an Occult Magician. Not what the typical American thinks of as a magician. I'm not talking about a stage performer creating illusions, and slight of hand tricks to fool the human senses. I'm talking about a Magician whose third eye is open, who has psychic abilities, who can sense the unseen, who has studied power. A magician who understands energy.  Dion Fortune would call such a person an Adept. Now let's say, this Adept, gathers up eight other people who do not necessarily have to be as aware, and the Adept uses powerful words and/or rituals to emotionally charge them, getting them to focus on something, a cause, an object, a purpose regarding some issue of choosing. This energy becomes it's own force, and as an Adept, that force can be used to effect reality.

Remember, Dion would call this force an Elemental. Another way to say it is, performing this type of collective function, creates a force within the collective conscious. An energy force is created within the electromagnetic field that is the psyche. This is not a joke. This is a real phenomenon. I imagine that for many readers the dismay occurs when it is said this force becomes it's own thing. I'll repeat it again; when this happens, even if it's not an Adept creating the situation, if a group of people come together and emotionally focus their energy, as a group, on a cause, or object, or idea: a separate force is created. The power of this force will depend on the particular details of the situation bringing it about. We're not going into that now. Study Occult Magic if you want to know the details.
 
Sit on this for awhile perhaps. Consider, how less aware monkeys are so easily influenced by external forces. How easily ignorant monkeys can be controlled, and swayed. Please consider that most people have no idea why they do what they are doing, even though they will most certainly have a story in their mind for why they do what they do. I mean, even science has proven this point; most people have no clue why they are really doing what they are doing. Look around....

It is only going to get deeper from here on out, hang on tight.

This force, once sufficiently created, will have a "mind" of it's own. It will be entirely separate of both the Adept, and the group who created it. It will be much like I've explained archetypes; once engaged it will run it's course. Once created it is literally its own thing. The more it is emotionally charged by a group of people, the more power it takes on, and as such, can eventually grow so powerful that it no longer needs the original group to exist. So if said group does not really know what they are doing, all manner of things can go wrong, even their own demise.  This force will seek to complete it's task even if the Adept falters in his powers. This force will be like our own minds, it will not check premises, it will simply follow it's suggestions to their logical conclusions.  Even crazier yet, this force will want to be human in the sense that it will want to grow and evolve. This makes sense when one realizes that it is operating within the collective human psyche.

Think of my favorite; the Lord Christ. How many people, how many churches, how many priests and preachers? How many fervent prayers have emotionally charged groups of people put into focusing on the Lord? Has not the Lord Christ become it's own force in Nature? Think about it. Does it matter if the man Jesus ever existed? If the story is true or not? Millions and millions of people have poured their emotional energy into the Force that is the Lord Christ, and because of this fact, that force operates as its own entity within the collective human psyche. It doesn't matter one bit if the story is true, if the bible is true, if organized religion is true; none of it matters: the Lord Christ is alive and well. That is fucking magic!

Do it. Invoke the Lord Christ into your life, and watch what happens. Center yourself, pour forth all your emotions, mean it within the depths of your heart; call upon the Lord Christ: watch what happens. By doing this, one will be inviting that force into their life, and like I've said, that force has a "mind" of it's own. No crazy spells are necessary, for the centering of one's self is the spell. If one uses rituals, and groups of others; the power of it will be beyond imagining. There is a saying though, be careful what one prays for, else you get it.  It is absolutely essential that one knows what they are doing regarding these forces. There have been many times in my life when I aligned my shit, got exactly what I asked for, and regretted it terribly. As they say, there are many paths up the mountain.

A personal way to think of magic is what I call notoriety. There is a particular way to go about it. At the time I was just following my intuition 100%.  I used to live in a small town, where it was possible to be known by a large percentage of the total population. In my mind I was practicing a tenet I had discovered in a book about practicing up in a small town before moving to a big one. During this time I consciously put forth energy into building and maintaining facades. That is to say, no one really knew who I was, what I was about, or what I was doing. I was practicing being mysterious. After overcoming my fear of being alone, I began pushing the limits. It no longer mattered to me what people thought, or if anyone really knew me or not. To the general population I was a mystery in the real sense. I purposefully made myself seem larger than life as they say. I had near full control of how others perceived me. Everything I did was calculated regarding how others perceived me.

At the same time I had what I called my inner circle. I had a small group of people, who did know me, who had my best interest in mind, and were praying for me regularly. These were my friends. This small group of people, obviously was emotionally charged regarding my well being. After reading this book Applied Magic, I realized I had a Force, with a mind of it's own, which I was intuitively aware of, even if I had no way of communicating it, of which I used to manifest the things I needed to achieve my personal goals. My friends and I unknowingly created this force. I didn't know anything about Magic at the time, so I merely referred to this force as my notoriety, my facades. It was this thing, this energy, "out there", that helped me along in life. Doing all of these things created huge amounts of energy in my life, such that I grew/matured faster, synchronized more, and accomplished more than I ever had up until that point in my life. It was magical. I'm not kidding; that time in my life was literally fucking magical. 

Because I was not a trained Adept, and did not consciously understand what I was doing, mistakes were made, but for the most part my intuition kept me on path. Sometimes that force, it often seemed like pure power, would go to my head and I would think that it was me doing certain things, when that was not necessarily the case. I also had the Lord Christ engaged in my life, so the lines would be hazy regarding what was what. For instance, there were many times when I would have psychic experiences, and then when the thing would happen, I would think that I had made those things happen by thinking it first. You know, that's some legit egomania. Even though I was wrong in thinking it was me creating the situation merely by my thoughts, this error caused me to become even more careful with my thoughts. It's weird how even mistakes turn into boons. The truth is, I was simply having a psychic experience, seeing the thing before it happened, but my ego believed it was I creating the event simply by thinking it. Self importance defined. It is not difficult to go insane once one has opened their third eye.

Whenever someone labels me a conspiracy theorist I always immediately know I'm dealing with someone who has done literally no homework at all. One must be in a complete state of ignorance to think that powerful greedy people do not conspire behind closed doors to maintain their wealth and power. I mean seriously, even at just regular jobs, the plebs are not allowed in the business meetings. Even the owners of small town businesses, mom and pops style, are meeting behind closed doors to discuss the manner in which they are going to maintain their wealth and power, but somehow, suddenly, those who control the populations are not doing this? Somehow, magically? Those with billions of dollars are not doing the same thing? That is absolutely fucking absurd. Let me assure you, the people who control the banks, the governments, the super large corporations, meet behind closed doors and conspire to maintain their wealth and power. They also use magic. Are they thinking of it like magic? Possibly not. Was I thinking of my notoriety as magic? I most certainly wasn't, yet there it was.

Think of any company with thousands of employees. Are not those employees emotionally charged regarding needing their pay checks? Do they not need their company to do well in order that they do well? What about all the stockholders needing that company to do well? What about all the family members of the employees and stockholders? Ends up being a large number of people involved. What are the board of directors discussing behind closed doors in private? Are they not deciding what to do with this force? As we've already seen, any group of people, emotionally focusing on an idea, a concept, a business, a person, anything; creates a force with a mind of its own.  Think of the magic of money itself. How many billions of people pray to the Force that is money every day, and then realize there is a small group of people, much like the Adept, who is control of said money. Think of the board of directors at the Federal Reserve. That money system practically runs the economic world.  I could make strong arguments that these people do in fact study how to control people; their wealth and power require it. Common sense they study population control. These are high level magicians; they rule the world.

Is not music a form of magic. I recently posted a meme about music. The top half was divided in two. On one side was Obama's inauguration ceremony from 2009 showing a large crowd of people, on the top right was Trumps from 2017 with even less people in the crowd. The bottom half of the meme was a Pantera concert with what seemed to be ten times as many people. I honestly don't know the head count of these events, but the quote by Dimebag Darrell reads, "Music drives you. It wakes you up, it gets you pumping. And, at the end of the day, the correct tune will chill you down." Even if one does not like heavy metal music, Pantera is adept at speaking to ones emotions. Think about the emotional power we've been speaking about. Why are some bands so successful, and others not? Notoriety? Someone behind the scenes being adept at what to do with the emotional energy they turn into a force of its own? Could we not say that Pantera is a force in and of itself, despite its individual band members? That is definitely fucking magic.

Think about the very idea of god. How did that come about? Would it not have all started, somewhere back in ancient history, with a small group of people emotionally charged, focusing on that idea, imbuing it with power. Sure, it started out as a small force. After millions of years of that happening, how many billions of people have emotionally prayed to god?  Who can know the power of that Force within the collective human psyche? Unimaginable am I right?

Can you not tell by now what is going on? Can you not see what I am explaining? There is a lot more to it of course. All the different levels and types of forces. There are Occultists who have broken it down into systems. I'm only breaking down the basics, the essence of this electromagnetic force that is what we are calling: Magic. There are an infinite number of these forces which have already been created in the past, of which a sufficient number of monkeys have imbued with energy, such that they exist on their own, and anyone with enough knowledge, even just a little, can access/invoke into their lives. It is not by any means only the Lord Christ that one can invoke.  

Using the old terms, (remember, don't get lost over the words) there are all manner of imps, fairies, sprites, elementals, saints, demons, angels, archangels, demi-gods, gods etc. If we tried to compile a complete list it would be enormous. On top of this there would be many different names for many of these forces. How many names does the Christian god have? All of these forces are operating within the human psyche, which means as far as being human goes: are as real as can be. They are very real forces, but are simply not measurable by modern science.

If you would like a better understanding of this topic, Dion Fortune's book Applied Magic is a good place to start. She does not hesitate to mention other authors, and books for one to read in order to attain a better understanding. I can't wait to get my hands on her other book The Mystical Qabalah.
 
If there is a lesson to be learned here, it is: Be careful what you do with your emotions.

Prayer Power

It is absolutely crucial regarding prayer, to understand what I'm saying without ever getting hung up on the specific details. It's a personal thing, and everyone is going to think of it differently. There are a million ways to explain the phenomenon, and I'm doing it using my terms. Try to grasp the concept, regardless of the system, and terms I use to explain it. 

I asked for prayers once upon a time in Facebook land, and shortly after, someone who doesn't exactly like me passive aggressively posted on their own page something about how does an atheist ask for prayers. I've spent a fair amount of time trolling organized religion, and often speak in terms of being atheist. Of course I chimed in and explained in short what prayer is, but here I'm going to go a little deeper. In a Christian culture if I were to ask for something other than prayer, practically no one would respond, and certainly very few people would actually pray for me. It doesn't matter what word we use if we understand that the human psyche is an electromagnetic force. Prayer is just easier to use since we are all immersed in this Christian culture. Everyone knows what the word prayer means more or less.

Now it's well known that scientist have studied prayer, and the results were at best not conclusive, and like a true American scientist, instead of admitting ignorance, they simply claimed prayer doesn't work. It couldn't possibly be that they don't understand reality enough to even study such a thing, am I right? Think about this in terms of how every day something that was once thought to be accurate is proved not to be so accurate within the scientific community. It happens daily, and often it is a huge difference that matters a great deal. I'm thinking of the microbiome as one of these issues. They really have no business saying one way or the other how things actually work in regards to interpreting their studies, especially since it has been proven that the results can be affected by the beliefs of the experimenter. I mean, that is literally prayer right there, in effect. Ones thoughts affecting results.

Scientists are as bad as preacher men.

Consider, they have scientifically proven that human desire, human thoughts, can affect the outcome of random number generators. Proven fact. A person can sit and focus on a random number generator giving certain results, and that RNG will be moved from average. Do you understand what I'm saying? It's a small variance, but a human exerting mental electromagnetic energy at a digital device, causes variance in the results versus an RNG that no one is focusing on. I say, that is prayer. One is directing their mental energy at an object and affecting how it operates; again: that is prayer. All of a sudden it doesn't work because one is directing their energy at a human instead of an electronic device? Give me a break. Someone needs to slap these "scientists" out of their egomania.

If one understands that the psyche works as an electromagnetic force, and that our entire material world, specifically our bodies are actually just condensed electromagnetic fields, then it should be quite obvious how complicated something like prayer is. For instance, how could one measure such a thing like, whose prayer is strong, and whose is weak? When is a persons prayer power stronger, or weaker? There are a lot of other variables that cannot be controlled, so studying prayer scientifically is at this time practically impossible.

One should have a decent grasp of the terms I'm using. Please refer to previous blogs. The psyche is an electromagnetic force. The Universe is a fractal, fractaling. The human unconscious, which is the Universe, doesn't check premises. Thoughts, the monkey mind, that voice in our head, is just the voice of our mind, speaking in pure electromagnetic waves, which do not degrade over time, or distance, unlike our physical speaking voice which speaks in sound waves, which do degrade over time and distance. The body, the mind, the unconscious, the monkey mind; it's all the same thing: the total mind. I'm only using labels to explain the situation. By saying body, it's still the mind, but the body does things the monkey mind doesn't, and the unconscious does things the body can't, but all in all, it's all one thing.

To counter the complicatedness of prayer I'm going to add what maybe the most important piece of the puzzle. Please consider, that being the result of millions of  years of evolution, having evolved perfectly to this electromagnetic environment, that the body knows exactly what to do at all times. It is only our thinking voice, that most of us improperly identify with, that has no clue what is going on, and that if one admits this, and just gets out of one's own bodies way; the body handles business. Keep this in mind at all times when praying; let the body, the unconscious, do the work; simply use the monkey mind to direct the body if it seems necessary. Remember, our unconscious does not check premises, so if one is going to direct their prayers, use the thinking mind, the monkey mind, to direct it: without thinking one knows what is best; the body will do what is best.

To put this into context, I generally only pray for two things. The truth no matter what the cost, and whatever is best for me. You see, I know with my thinking, I have no clue looking into the future what is best for me, but I know my unconscious does, so I pray for whatever is best, and then take whatever comes my way with that in mind. It is that simple. I'll return to this topic at the end of the blog.

Prayer is going to be extremely complicated in reality. The previous paragraph is only one kind of prayer. I think if we wanted to, we could say that all energy leaving the mind is prayer. Technically speaking we are praying at all times, on many different levels, at many different intensities. I'm not going to try to systematize this process. Trying to explain it with words is going to bring about contradictions. Trying to explain it in totality would only bring about confusion. I'd rather simplify it.

It has a lot to do with what I pointed out in the blog about the unconscious. If on a deep level we believe we are losers, that means our unconscious is praying a loser prayer, and since the unconscious prays at a greater intensity than our monkey mind, then praying for something that is not loser with our monkey mind is technically counter productive. Almost always the unconscious is going to win, so to speak. How will we be able to measure which is the stronger electromagnetic force emanating from our body? Or, are we putting out equal force, a loser belief, and a thought based prayer, and like light waves do they are canceling each other out? Only personal experience will tell us which is which, because we are all operating at our own frequencies.

I should point out a distinction with the monkey voice. Let's say that for the most part, particularly to an untrained thinker, the monkey mind is a very narrow, directed, weak light. Like a cheap store bought flash light. In terms of prayer, the monkey voices' real strength is in guiding the unconscious. In other words, it is most powerful when it is shining inward, not outward. The more of the unconscious one brings into consciousness is what will upgrade the store bought flashlight. Let's say compared to the unconscious, the monkey mind is like a regular flash light, and the unconscious is like the sun. So you see, an enlightened gurus thoughts are going to be a lot more like the sun, than that puny flash light most of us are walking around with. Buddha, or the Lord Christ were like the sun with their thoughts.

Let's say someone is sick, while I am not, and they ask me for prayers. I make this distinction because if one is sick their prayer power is going to be low, weak, unhealthy light. When someone is sick they shouldn't be praying at others because this amounts to sending sick energy to a sick person, when a sick person needs healthy energy, obviously. It is said that a sick person praying for someone will actually make them more sick instead of helping them. You've been warned.

So let's say you're healthy, and someone asks for prayers. The way I tell people is, to imagine healing energy, whatever that may be for you individually.  Maybe like me, it's the Lord Christ. I hold an image of the Lord in my mind, beaming, radiating white light, and I imagine that white light passing through me, and as it comes through me, I guide it with my mind, using the monkey voice, my inner thoughts, imagination, visualization, to direct it towards the person asking for prayers, imaging them being bathed in the Lord's light, as it passes through me. I use my mind to direct it at the person needing help. Remember, the unconscious does not check premises, and the Universe is the unconscious, so I don't doubt whatsoever; I know it works.

Please refer to the placebo effect, and instantaneous healing. These things are scientific facts regardless of whatever pharmaceutical medicine your family doctor may tell you that you need.

Maybe for you it is the Mother Earth, or the Sun, or a goddess, or god, or maybe it's a peaceful feeling.  Maybe it is the Lord Krishna, Buddha, or just your own inner light. You see, here it does not matter what you use mentally, what matters is that one is imaging a healing energy, and that one is directing it towards another person. One can also unfocus the energy, and just radiate it outwards in all directions, as in praying for world peace, or praying for a community as a whole. One does not only have to direct it to some specific person, or idea. Some people use feels, some imagery, some words, some just use thoughts. Everyone is different. These technicalities do not matter so much as one grasps the concept. Prayer is that simple.

What makes it complicated is all the different prayers happening simultaneously. Not only within one particular individual, but also that every human alive is praying constantly, with every thought, with every mindset, with their unconscious, at all times.

So now I'm arguing with the scientist who claim to have disproved that prayer works. I say all illness is psychosomatic. If placebo effect is real, and it is, and if instantaneous healing is legit, and it is, then all sickness is psychosomatic. So if we are praying for someone who refuses to change spiritually, we might as well be the person with a loser mindset praying or a good job. We are being counter productive. You know, praying for healing for the person with cancer, who refuses to quit smoking or eating fast food. That's counterproductive. Unless, you are like me and pray for whatever is best. I don't know what is best for someone else. I don't have an expectation of outcome. For all I know they need wrecked by cancer. By doing this, one is praying for the situations in life to cause that person to realize they must quit smoking and eating fast food. And here lies the crux of the whole thing. Bring about the realization that one must quit smoking is going to be a situation that entails suffering; like being sick with cancer.

Do you understand what I am saying? If you pray for someone who smokes cigarettes and eats fast food to be healed, you may be praying that they get even more cancer, because cancer will be the thing that causes them to wake up to the fact that they must quit smoking and eating fast food. Think about how many people do not change until shit is so dire they are about to die.  I've written about this before, if suffering is the teacher, and learning, growing in consciousness is the purpose of life, then suffering is a good thing. Many people who pray expect only a "good" outcome, and then say they failed at praying because they did not get a "good" result.  Do you see how complicated this just got?

Let me personalize it for you. Let's say you are like me, and most people are, and like me, in your twenties, you had no idea what the hell was going on. I was terribly afraid to be alone. I had no self-esteem. I pretty much just flat out hated myself, yet I was praying for the perfect woman. Any guesses what kind of woman my prayers got me? I got the kind of woman that wrecked my life, so that I learned my lessons, so that the next woman was a little better. I kept learning my lessons, and then the next woman was even better. You see what I am saying? No amount of prayer is going to materialize end game scenario. The prayers are going to materialize the things one needs to get to the end game scenario. Who in their twenties is ready for a perfect mate? One has to grow up a ton, mature like a boss, to get their spiritual mate. That is never going to come easy for anyone. 

All the time I see people doing this exact thing; praying for end game results without having done any of the work to even remotely deserve end game results. As if. It's a victim mentality that I know all too well. Egomania in effect. Looking back, married as I am now I can see that all my prayers were answered, because I learned my lessons, and took on the suffering. I can see too, that I created more suffering than was necessary by being a victim to the idea that I did not get what I prayed for. I'm saying, I created more suffering by telling myself I wasn't worthy of getting what I was praying for because the "perfect" woman never showed up in my twenties. What showed up was the perfect woman to teach me the lessons I needed to one day be able to be with the perfect woman.

I eventually realized the kind of woman I wanted didn't want a guy like me. You see what I'm saying?

Being that our unconscious is literally the Universe; it knows exactly what we need. In this sense there isn't even really a need to pray for one's self at all; it's already happening: All of the time.

So you see, there is some overlap here, because one can use their monkey mind to interfere with the unconscious. One can use directed prayers via the thinking voice to disrupt, interfere, inhibit, slow, or just plain fuck up one's life. One must absolutely learn to get out of their own unconscious' way.

One can learn to turn the dark into the light, that is, turn the unconscious into the conscious. Turn that little puny dollar store flashlight into the almighty sun. One can learn to pray powerfully with their conscious mind. One cannot learn to not pray unconsciously. I ask you, if you have not, to read the blog about the unconscious. I told someone the other day, that there is a huge difference between one who understands the unconscious and listens to their inner voice, and one who does not.

The switches

I could have sworn I've written about his already, but I did not see a blog title that would seem to contain this information. I'm too lazy to read through them all right now. It's probably there somewhere, but that is probably for the best I didn't find it, being that my thoughts about this are much more refined now. This concept that follows is critical for anyone who wishes to understand what is going on. This concept will definitely shed some light on the shit show.
 
As always, I figured this out studying myself, studying others, reading and applying.  As always, I synchronized all that I needed, I put the thought together, and the books came, reading and applying.  It's important to say this, not because of my ego, but because you too can make this happen. I'm not special in this regard. Neither would you be. 

I'll link a couple books at the end, if you wish to study up for yourself, wanting more than just my word for it.

I was studying the unconscious, and this led into the study of hypnotism. At the same time, I was studying people around me, and why people do the things that they do. It's important to understand that while doing this study work, I understood that humans are just monkeys. Primates. Humans can be trained just like any other animal, a dog, a horse, a gorilla, whatever. Most humans live a very confused life thinking they are not primates.  I do not make this mistake while making my observations.

Let's start with an anatomical switch, before we get to the environmental, and mental switches. The easiest anatomical switch to see play out is puberty. Particularly in males, but I'm a male, so I can't genuinely speak for females. As a male, it happens slowly, but there is also a day, when one can say, life is different. A switch gets flipped. I've lived with a ten year old boy. If we asked him who his girlfriend is, he will snicker at you, and say he doesn't like girls. But we all know that is going to change. With puberty, there is no control over the switch. It happens for everyone, regardless of gender or sexual orientation. A day is coming for any ten year old boy, just like it did for me, when all of a sudden nothing in the world is going to matter anymore: just girls.

This same switch also switches back. I will never forget that day for me. I was fighting with my girlfriend, for weeks at a time, months on end. Always fighting about sex, who fucked who, who is talking to who. My whole life, from puberty till this day revolved around sex in every way. Practically every thought that ran through my mind revolved around sex. I was walking through my roommates house, feeling weird. Strangely, I had felt it coming for awhile, but this day it was almost like a presence. There aren't words for it. But I remember it now. I sat down on the bed, and just felt different. Suddenly I didn't care about sex so much. Instead of thinking about sex every other thought, every two seconds, now I only thought about it every ten seconds, or so. I remember feeling a great relief. I felt more free. I had quadruple the time to think about other things.

Think about that. It's subtle, but yet it's not. From puberty until that moment I was basically forced to think about sex every two seconds. Then suddenly not. That is a big change. What did I do differently? What did I do to bring about that changed? Even looking back with hindsight, I have no idea, other than I was simply growing older. Now, as I edit this, I'm forty seven, and I can go a major portion of the day and never think about sex. Compared to my late teens and early twenties this is a radical difference. Life changing. 

This is a purely anatomical switch. I'm not saying environment cannot have an impact on it, such as surrounding myself with women, or taking up some extra girlfriends, but that wouldn't take me back to my puberty days. Therr are definitely ways to stimulate one's hormones, but it is a purely anatomical switch entering puberty, and leaving it.

I'm sure you can think of your own, but one of my favorite environmental switches is homelessness. It's a technique I learned studying shamanism, and also just noticing it through the struggle of relationships.  You know, when it gets sketchy and your girlfriend, or wife, puts you out. It's a dramatic change, and it's easiest to notice if one gets no warning. One day everything is cool, next day your out on the streets. For me, this is a tremendous boost of energy. When one is comfortable, seemingly safe, energy tends to be low. Look at how many men gain weight when they post up with a woman, have kids, become a family man, compared to when they were single. Or pay attention to a male when he suddenly becomes single again, even if he doesn't end up homeless. If you pay attention, there will be a dramatic difference in energy expenditure. Life force. Vitality. Whatever you want to call it. 

I could make an argument that this is why so many avoid being in a state of homelessness; they can't handle the energy. It requires personal power to be able to withstand the higher frequencies.

Using shamanic techniques, there have been many times I've purposefully created a state of homelessness for myself simply to have this boost of energy at my disposal. It is literally just like flipping a switch. You can think of it just like that; flipping a light switch. Safe at home, switch is off, get put out on the streets, light is on. Safe at home, can't feel the Universe so much, lower occurrences of synchronicity, out on the streets, totally in tune with the Universe, nearly everything is synchronous. With this boosted energy one can achieve higher states of consciousness. One can synchronize and manifest many things that could not be synchronized from the safety of a home. 

Think about this, look around.

Starvation is another environmental switch. Anyone who does a three day fast can tell you that it heightens the senses. It makes one way more sensitive. This is why in most spiritual practices routine fasting is necessary; it creates heightened sensitivity. You know the spiritual phrases, that one must look within. Well, fasting makes one sensitive to their own body. This gives one a better opportunity to look within, as it makes it easier. If one is fat, content, and bogged down with food, they are typically as insensitive as can be. Speaking in terms of evolution, this sensitivity while in a state of starvation increases ones chances of finding food, but in modern times, particularly in America, it is impossible to actually starve to death. 

So this conscious choice to fast gives one the safety of starving, read here, increasing one's energy, without actually being in danger. It's a switch one can flip by choice.

I'm sure if you thought about it you could figure out all kinds of switches for your own energy purposes. There are all kinds of ways you could change your environment, to flip energy switches. A new girlfriend. Lots of girlfriends. A new job. A new anything. Drugs. Food (food is a drug). Religious experiences. Even down to little things, changing clothes, rearranging furniture. buying stuff, on and on. Many of these lesser changes will not provide sustained energy like puberty does, or homelessness will.

Here comes the most important kind of switch. Here comes the switches that give one the most control over life. I learned about this studying hypnosis. After learning about this type of switch you will be able to have so much more control over your life, and also understand why others live as they do.

Hypnosis is a curious phenomenon. I'm going to sum it up though, for the purposes of this little essay. If you wish to know yourself better though, I highly recommend looking into hypnosis. I am not saying to go and get yourself hypnotized to learn about yourself. I am saying to study it so you can understand how your own mind works.

The short of it is that when hypnotized, basically ones conscious self if put to sleep, but the body stays awake. When this happens ones unconscious is given a voice. Now this is simplified language because I'm not trying to imply the entire unconscious, so maybe it's better to say subconscious, but I never really use that term. So here, I'm saying that once one's conscious is asleep, the body is still awake, and since the body is part of the unconscious, the body gains a voice. 

One of the more famous illustrations of this is a particular woman who was used as a lab rat basically. This happened back in the day, 1800s or so. This woman was a pleb, no education, couldn't' read or write type of thing. Just a peasant. Well, hypnotized she could do things that she shouldn't' have been able to do, like use logic. Not basic logic, but educated logic. Back then the big name guys did lecture tours, so this woman was hypnotized a lot, to demonstrate what her unconscious could do. It was also brought to light, that the more they hypnotized her the more of a voice her unconscious gained. Her being constantly hypnotized altered her personality. 

This lines up with what Carl Jung has pointed out about the unconscious having its own personality. Who by the way tinkered around with hypnotism. He used different methods though of making contact with the unconscious. You see, if hypnotized one will not remember what happened while the conscious is asleep, so Jung used dreams and Active Imagination to make contact consciously with the unconscious. This allows one to remember, and have a knowing of one's own unconscious.

Here is the important part of this puzzle regarding these switches, and this happened with anyone hypnotized. If a persons conscious self was put to sleep, their unconscious would follow suggestions to their logical conclusions, without checking premises. So, we've all heard probably, if not seen first hand, how a stage performer will hypnotize someone, and then tell them they are a chicken, and then this person proceeds to act just like a chicken. What is happening is, the person suggesting, is filling in for the conscious voice, and since the unconscious does not check premises, that is to say, it doesn't check to actually see if it is a chicken or not, acts like a chicken. That is a super cheesy way to show off the power of the unconscious. This pleb woman though, not being used for extravaganza, was used by physicians, and they gave her Aristotle style logic premises, and she would always be able to follow them to their conclusion. Something an ordinary, consciously awake pleb, could ever do.  

Here is a very important piece of the human puzzle; the unconscious does not check premises, it simply follows whatever is suggested to it's logical conclusion: flawlessly, even if one is just an ignorant pleb with no education whatsoever.

Think about this. Try to look at your life, and if that is too painful or uncomfortable, look at your friends or your neighbors. Let's say your neighbor has conscious thoughts about himself, and they are negative, say, something like, "I'm a stupid loser." This individuals unconscious is not going to check to see if that premise is correct or not; it is simply going to follow it to it's logical conclusion. What is the logical conclusion to a statement such as "I'm a stupid loser"? A whole lot of self destructive behavior. Losers don't do well in life. Losers don't have nice things. Losers don't win. Don't get promotions. Losers are typically fat and addicted to drugs. Stupid losers don't take care of themselves.  What if it's a female. What if this females life has taught her that she is only good for sex, and needs a man to support her. Her unconscious is not going to check those premises, it is simply going to follow them to their logical conclusion.

This is a switch. Simply look at the difference between someone who believes, that is, consciously tells their self they are awesome, and someone who tells their self they are a loser. Think of the drug addict. Think of the champion. In other words, the drug addict isn't really an addict at all. That is simply a human who has been convinced by external forces that they are a loser, are not worthy, and their unconscious is not checking to see if that is actually true or not, it is simply following that to its natural conclusion.
 
In my own life, raised as I was, I had been utterly convinced from birth that something was wrong with me. I had even been convinced god didn't love me. You could say I was effectively brainwashed. Being that I was a child with nothing to give context to my experience, not even my conscious self could discern enough to actually check the premises. 

I believed them, everyone, wholeheartedly: something was wrong with me. Nearly everyone said this, implied it, suggested it, that something was wrong with me, and my unconscious went about making sure that played out.  It was synchronized in every way, at every turn. I was locked in. My unconscious made sure it went that way. It was completely self fulfilling. 

My uown unconscious made sure everyone thought something was wrong with me.  I was seventeen years old before someone with nothing to gain from helping me let me know I had been dealt a bad hand in life. 

At forty seven, that shit is still bouncing around inside my head a bit.  I still to this day have self destructive nuances. I will still, out of nowhere, hear that voice in my head say; something is wrong with me. 
 
To put some more context on this, I've personally spent years consciously undoing the negative self talk. It is a serious thing if one spends any length of time at all repeating things like, "I'm a loser" in their own heads, with their conscious voice. It's probably true that it takes an equal amount of time to undo that kind of mental programming. Ten years spent hating one's self, equates to ten years having to loving affirm one's self, before it is just happening naturally without the conscious effort. Unless....
 
This is where the previous switches come into play. If one can elevate their energy, say by being homeless, or perhaps some stroke of luck, something goes ones way, a new job, a new lover, a fresh start, and at the same time, consciously affirming with that elevated energy, that one is not a loser, or flawed, or whatever the case may be, the necessary time can be drastically reduced. Prayer is also a form of this conscious affirmation. 

I say, pray for all you got, all the time.

There is a great deal of research regarding auto-suggestion, and external suggestion. Using these tools to reprogram the unconscious mind goes a long way. This probably sounds or seems, as it does for me, a lot like positive thinking philosophy, but there is a difference. Giving one's own unconscious positive affirmations will definitely make ones life better, but this is not positive thinking philosophy. Positive thinking philosophy is putting a positive light on negative things in order to feel better about them. Something like, turning a lose, into a win, with thoughts alone. This is rubbish.  If you lost a race, you lost, but this doesn't make one a loser. 

Don't spin it. Don't spin reality. Just give one's self positive affirmations regardless of outcome. So you can see in these terms it still takes time to overcome the old habits or pathways ingrained in the brain.

Let's be clear. Say something bad happens like a relationship comes to an end. There's good reason to have negative feelings and emotions about this, but to say positive affirmations about ones self during these experiences isn't putting a positive spin on them. "I love her, and it hurts she's gone, but I'm still worthy of love."

First things first: we need the energy to change, and we can consciously take some initiative by flipping some switches ourselves. We don't have to wait on it to build up so much in the unconscious that something traumatic happens to force it. 

As this is happening, we can reprogram the old conscious mindsets with new ones that are more life affirming, and advantageous. This part will not be easy, especially if you're like me and have a long life of everyone telling you something is wrong with you. Even with the conscious affirmations, the imprunted past will be constantly impacting the situation. 

The external auto-suggestions, and suggestions of those you are close to especially have an impact. This shows another type of affirmation; shielding one's self, consciously protecting one's self from the past. 

This will be enough to get iyou going. All these books reference other books, and that path is unending.

The Electromagnetic Wave

Hello everyone! I have great news! The language of science is going to solve our spiritual issues. Some people say the singularity is the moment when an AI is more intelligent than humans. I say that's already the case. There are already AI programs that outperform humans. I use a different definition for singularity. It's when the spiritual has been made manifest via science.

For instance, very soon we will all have computers in our heads. This technology already exists in “beeper” form. Remember beepers? Look at phones now! Add this up: This means an AI will know the thoughts of everyone simultaneously. A computer capable of unfathomable processing power, will have instantaneous access to the minds of all monkeys who have said computer in their head. This is Omnipresence made manifest via science. Sound familiar? Isn’t this god?

This would also be the Akashic Field made manifest, being others would be able to access the thoughts of others.

I think we live in a matrix already, and it's about to fractal. Again. We're about to turn our minds into a computer again. A computer simulation within a computer simulation within a simulation. Fractals. The metaphysics literature is rife with talk about god being the One Mind. More than a few great minds have ascribed to the Creator being Mind.

I'd say it's fairly important to keep in mind the implications this idea has on what is typically called "magic" and “spirituality” if you know what I mean.

Hear me out. I know this isn't new news. It's really old news actually, but maybe it's new knowledge for someone around here looking for that kinda thing.

We live inside an electromagnetic field. Everything that exists, exists within, and as, an electromagnetic field. It is only the limited perception of our eyes that makes things appear as solid objects. The Universe is an electromagnetic field. Science has proven this. Our minds are in this field. This means our psychology works electromagnetically.
I recently read some labels. Body/mind. Soul/psyche. So here I am saying our soul, or our psyche is the same thing, and also the same as the Universe. How many times have your heard the same old metaphor said differently?

“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.” That’s Jalaluddin Rumi’s way of saying it.

“You are a function of what the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is a function of what the whole ocean is doing.” That’s Sir Alan W. Watts’ way of saying it.

Try to see the electromagnetic function in what these men are saying. I have my own ways of explaining it, but that’s for another day.

Have you ever just liked someone? What was it like when you became separated because of life? Not a terrible experience am I right? But what about when you were in love? What was it like being separated or losing someone you were in love with?  I say the more in love, the higher one rides that wave, the lower one must go when it crashes. To the same degree one rises in love, the same degree of heartbreak will occur too. The higher one rides that wave, the further down will be the crash, the heartbreak. It will be inevitable.

Maybe consider too, that to truly know love, one must ride this wave all the way. One must ride it all the way up, and all the way down. So many people claim to know what love is, and yet they live in fear of love. They lie to themselves. Be honest, how many people do you know who settle? Who don’t chase their loves? To truly know anything the wave must be rode to the fullest. Obviously this isn’t going to be a good time to anyone who wishes to avoid the down side of the wave. This equates to making a choice to stay ignorant. It’s much easier to use words, and claim one knows what they are talking about, than to actually go and break one's own heart.

Let's look at one of my favorites. The Lord Christ. Look how amazing he is! Yet, look at all the rape and murder in his name? You see he was a wave too, so we get both sides. I learned this studying ancient Chinese philosophy. Chuang-tzu taught me the phrase; for every great Sage, there is a great Robbery. One needs look no further than the Lord Christ for proof of this phenomenon. Turns out the ancient Chinese understood physics. They just didn't call it physics.

This is the electromagnetic wave. It is happening in everything the human mind can comprehend. It’s simply physics playing out in our psychology. This force seems to be balancing all things, but it's really a wave. Spiritual texts have all kinds of poetic and metaphoric, parables and stories, describing this wave function. It’s a matter of paying attention.

Please keep in mind this part here is an extremely oversimplified metaphor. The whole process is much more complicated than can be described in words. Believe it or not there are monkeys attempting to put this idea down in mathematical terms. That’s too much for me. I’ll leave that to scientists. I think of a single thought as a photon of light, but that it goes out like a field, in all directions. Whenever I have a thought, a photon of light leaves my body and is forever after out there in the Universe. I see an archetype as a beam of light. Typically, if an archetype is engaged it will run its course, because of its brightness. They are much more powerful than a single thought. This might have something to do with casting spells.

Interestingly, just like a light wave; it is possible to crash waves. (Perhaps watch the double slit experiment on YouTube to gain a better understanding of this concept. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9tKncAdlHQ ) That is to say, two colliding waves, at just the right "time" and "place" can collapse a wave.  There are many ways to collapse waves in the realm of our minds. One can also create new waves, and there are as many ways to do this, as there are stars in the Universe. This phenom of collapsing and creating waves is what “magic” is all about.

The mind is an electromagnetic field, within an electromagnetic field. We are not talking anatomically here, but we are. We are talking about our psyche. The soul. Our shared mental "vision language" (don't know the word right now) is "the" mind. Our unconscious speaks in symbols and metaphors. Our unconscious is a perpetually archetype (beam of light) shining into the universe.

If there ever was a religious metaphor for this idea; this is it: straight out the bible. It is a requirement that one not think of god as some dude in the sky. This requires deep thought.

The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 (John testified concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’”) 16 Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and[b] is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.

Logos

One of my favorite modern shamans said it best, “The real secret of magic is that world is made of words, and that if you know the words that the world is made of you can make of it whatever you wish.”  That’s our boy Terence McKenna dropping the truth. So those bible verses should hit home now.
Our bodies are like satellites; constantly sending and receiving electromagnetic information.
The body is the unconscious. The body is the mind. This is a profound truth, only because of how this culture has rendered the best of us ignorant of reality. Culture has control of the words.

Collective unconscious, cultural programming, the words: it's the goddamn words, so much of our mind is the words. It used to only be images. Archetypes. This is why our unconscious uses symbols. It developed before the words.

There are so many names for the same thing.

We are already in a computer.
We are computers.

Maybe think about it for awhile. Take a minute, or two. Take a day. Take a month. I can see how to a lot of people most of this is far deeper than what they’re accustomed to. Most people struggle with the idea that their body is their unconscious.

Think about how karma is really just this wave function I've pointed out. What goes up must come down. What comes around goes around. It’s not a matter of retribution, or paybacks, or any kind of value judgment. It’s about acquiring complete awareness within the psyche, our soul.

Think about it. I know you’ve done it. When do people change the most? When they've lost it all? Am I right? Look around at the shit show. You know who was living on this land prior to us? People who were in total harmony with nature, now look around; is it not the opposite?

“As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…”  Hermes Trismegistus

The wave function I'm describing is also helical like our solar system. The wave doesn't just go up and down as if it's a 2D blip on a flat screen. It goes around and round. This is what makes it seem so complicated. This is exactly why it's so complicated. This is why life can be so hard.

Imagine the electrons spinning madly about the center of the nucleus of an atom. Imagine what our solar system would look like spinning as it does if you were big enough that our solar system was the size of an atom to you.

Imagine all the different aspects of your unconscious spinning madly about your consciousness. Re-watch that double slit experiment; when does something become manifest?

“As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…”

Does duality ring a bell? The polarity of people? Ideas? The Law of Attraction? This wave function is in everything. This electromagnetic function IS reality. Find something that isn't an electromagnetic wave.

Oh sweet relief, is but a few words away. I already told you the ancient Chinese understood physics, before the word physics existed. They called it the Tao. This way of using words teaches one to stay in the middle psychologically. Energetically. Before this can be accomplished though one must ride waves all the way to the end. Burn up like a star. This too, is for another day.

So essentially, one can just like a computer: program their mind with words.
The mind is a program, and following Hermes’ logic, so must be the Universe.

We are biological computers.

We are already in a computer my friend.
