Levels Of Understanding
As I have said earlier there is everything, and nothing at the same time. It is everything, in complete nothingness. That is at the highest level of understanding. It can be pretty hard to butter your toast and put salt on your eggs if your awareness is at this level. Only because the salt, and pepper shakers would be the same thing. Everything at this level is nothing equally. Just a different shape. It doesn't matter what’s inside, salt or pepper because it is still nothing just the same.
That is the ultimate truth of all things, but it makes it very hard to function here on the earth in this dimension of solids and opposites.
If you were a being from another galaxy in a completely different dimension. If you had responsibilities of some kind in all of creation, then this level of understanding might work for you. But bring that guy here and there would be no way for him to function. He would be useless to himself, and to anyone else.
We here on earth have the capacity to go through all levels. How many levels there are could be countless. From the very lowest on the scale to the very highest as in the previous example.
The very lowest on the scale would be a view of very one sided, simple thinking, that doesn't incorporate details or interjections of other ideas or thoughts. The only thing that matters is the smallest enigma of their own that their attention is on at that moment.
The highest is the one who incorporates everything with no detail at all and nothing really matters on the grand scale of things. It is the overview plan. The great map of things where people coming and going are insignificant.
Using every level that is in between all at once at the same time. If one is in the lowest and cannot see beyond that, he is no more use than the one stuck in the highest and cannot see beyond that. All the levels from lowest to highest, are just a different way of seeing the same thing as we have talked about in previous chapters.
If one could stand and be in all the multitude of levels at the same time, not just one, as we are used to doing but all. Being in all positions of viewing at the same time. While looking at the same thing.
All the levels at once, from highest to lowest. It is the secret that the human capacity is, and that capacity is because of our ability to emote! This capacity cannot happen from the mind. The mind cannot do this. Only the emotions can.
That's another part of what makes us so different or unique than other beings in the universe. We function on many different levels, all at the same time. The uniqueness we have that we are barely aware of at this point, is why we haven't been long destroyed by other beings. We are so far behind in technology and common sense.
It’s our emotions that mess everything up for us. There are those who have noticed this issue and seen it as our potential, not a curse. There are those who wish us destroyed, but we are protected. That will be for quite another chapter.
In order to function here there would seem to be many faucets to every concern and idea. There isn't just one way for anything. We progress scientifically. After we found the only way to make something work, we progress to yet a better way of the same thing. Just when we thought there was nothing else.
An example is the telephone and how it has changed and progressed to a tiny wireless screen in your pocket. Which started from a huge wall box with a bell on top that you had to crank a handle and yell in to. The first one was the be all end all of communications.
An example of something that involves the many levels we exist in. It is looking at a situation in many different ways. Looking at it from different angles or views that would seem to have a valid viewpoint each. The viewpoint can be very different, looking at the same situation. The only way we have functioned here so far has been to pick one and make it the norm for all. What tends to happen with that is those who see another view of the same thing will be shunned, or even destroyed. The fact is, that both are right.
This is just another way we humans as a group have tried to stay in control. Trying to feel safe in this crazy environment. This world doesn't make sense to us at the best of times. This is a very strange place to us. Things just don't make sense here. This is a place of Emoting.
You may have had the experience when you have a really good strong point to make, that's a final solution for you. Then have another person say... oh yes, that makes sense but and throws in something you hadn't yet considered. Now you have two solutions and in what seems a deadlock. That's only two. There may be many more you don't know about yet.
That same situation that you have the two solutions for may have a third solution, picked up by a group or a country of people across the world who got that third solution. It may be they have a different culture that allowed it in to their consciousness. When you look at what they are doing with that third solution you can’t even recognize it as a solution to the same situation you have. It is seen as some crazy foreign thing that you don't know, “why they are doing such a thing.” It is a solution to a problem you also have, you just don't recognize it.
That is essentially what cultures are. Different solutions that people have come up with on different parts of the earth for the same situations. It becomes so ingrained and integrated no one remembers why it’s even there. They just do it without noticing they are doing anything at all. When they do notice is when someone isn't doing what they have always been doing. Then there is a problem. Being shunned or even killed as we said earlier in this book.
It is just one solution of many solutions that was decided by few. It is put forth as the solution for everyone in that region. After hundreds or thousands of years in this way, you have different peoples with different understandings, all living under the same stars on the same planet. Looking at each other as the other is ridiculous, or stupid, or primitive, or uneducated or brass.
If you spent some time dancing with a tribe in Africa, you just might understand why they do this kind of dance. Their movement in a group, the funny kicks and hops in unison, they are all dressed in strange ways and makeup that looks almost alien to the western world. I know that I would certainly like to try it. The fears I would have to conquer and the laughs I would get trying would make it all worth it. Because it is a solution to a same situation we all have as human beings. It is just in a different way that we have never thought of. This alternate way was thought of there a thousand years ago.
That is how you can believe something so strongly one day and the next day believe something almost opposite. Both times being ready to fight for it and both times you were right. It just depends on where you are looking at the same thing from.
For each of us though, we still believe what we have is the way. Even if other people are physically dying or losing all they have for your way. That is why the change is going to happen. This old way is no good for anybody. It is only limiting our own potential and our true creation of our experience.
It is when we can see all the possibilities of a situation freely. Or when we don't see we are knowing there is more to see and expecting it will show itself along the way. It is only fear that makes us grasp on to one solution.
We don't understand anything of our existence here, or how anything works. We want to be in control in order to feel safe. That's why there is this book, to help us understand so we can make better of ourselves. To become the creation that we have been created to become.
You will have the help of the universe. You will only need to be willing. The rest will happen naturally because it is our natural state. There isn't even much you need to do.
What changes is inside you! It will be how things begin to appear through your eyes at what surrounds you. Things that used to upset you, don't anymore. Less attachment, more openness, less judgment, more freedom... The outside physical experience will change as you change from within. We just haven't known it until now and have been fighting it every step of the way.
That has been the bondage we have been in. That bondage is what we have been taught. We have been taught from all those before us and those of today.
It is time now! To come out of that bondage and be free! Be that new creation, cast off the fears and all the redundant attachments we hang on to. They serve no purpose but to drag us down as a human being. Allow the river to take you. Flow with the twists and the turns, become the water itself. You will see that you are safe beyond your wildest dreams!
