TIME AND DISTANCE

Time and Distance are closer concepts than you believe. Just as you may determine the point between two Distances in measures of Time, you may determine the point between two Times in measures of Distance.

            Time------------------------------------Time  = Distance

            Distance----------------------------Distance  = Time

The concepts that you accept, expound upon, teach, and understand in different ways during your lives are of necessity, taught around the construct of words and word units.

Therefore, many of these concepts overlap, contradict, and share some redundancies. The definitions of these concepts also vary according to era, culture, and socio-economic subcultures and hierarchies.

For instance: the distance between point A and point B is felt to be much greater when traveled by foot, less by horse, even less by car, and respectably less by airplane. How much less does that same distance seem when the travel between A and B becomes instantaneous—when your atoms may be moved from the first point to the second without noticeable delay?

You may argue that the distance has not changed, but that it is the speed which has changed, yet maybe this is a matter of words and concepts and overlapping constructs and contradictions. Yes?

How does this same example change the construct of time? Traveling from point A to point B on foot consumes more linear time than traveling that distance by horse or by car or by airplane. Moving the compressed and cohesive form of the body-in-total from A to B instantaneously requires no linear time at all—so how much time does it take?

Quite often, when you are judging Time and Distance, you are doing so according to the markers in your body and in your life, that indicate change. You say to yourself: “Since I left point A, how much change has occurred since I arrived at point B?”

If you have been making the journey by foot, quite a lot of change has occurred. You have seen a lot on this journey, even if that was not your intention. You have had a lot of opportunity to think and experience and to interact with your environment. As the window of change and experience from A to B shortens, the change is reduced. You are less changed.

This is the significant reason that when you have a “Life-Changing” experience, that is, an experience which changes you ‘in the blink of an eye,’ you feel a great leap ahead. You jump from A to B with a sudden thrust, arriving at B with your changes whole, having never felt their slow turning, and the typical smorgasbord of choices that is usually required to seat them.

Invite into your life all modes of travel and all methods of moving from A to B.

 As long as you embrace the importance of travel itself, 

keeping yesterday’s horizon behind you and tomorrow’s ahead, 

you can always be assured that you are moving towards B.

And once you reach B, it will become your new A, 

and the sun will rise again.

DISTANCE

It is easy to believe that the concept of Distance is meant to be understood in geographic terms, as in the Distance between points A and B. What is the Distance between the north and south poles? What is the Distance between your house and your place of work?

But . . . what is the Distance between your breaths? Between the time you first realized that one day your mortal body would die, and the time that you accepted the realization? What was that Distance?

What is the Distance between the time that you understood a behavior to be unsatisfactory and the time that you correct the behavior? What is that Distance? Is that Distance growing smaller as you gain wisdom and compassion?

What is the Distance between a cry for help 
and a long, circular, guilt-bloated response? 

What is the Distance between a cry for help 
and a blind, compassionate and immediate response? 

How do those Distances compare?

What is the Distance between You and Yourself?  

Whatever the Distance, it closes at the speed of Love.

THE MUTINY

You say that you will diet, that you will stop drinking alcohol, begin to exercise, or abide by strict spending limitations, and you do not. What you are experiencing is a Mutiny. Your crew is not supporting its captain. Why?

The crew is on this sailing ship on this same sea. Do they have no fear that their reckless behavior endangers the ship? Does the crew believe that fulfilling their own desires is more important than seeing to the safety of the ship and its passengers? Why would the crew work against its captain?

Let us assume that the captain is flawed but well intended. For the most part, the ship’s crew follows along, confident that the captain is making competent decisions. One day, an obviously bad decision sets the crew to murmuring. Or perhaps the crew is tired of eating hard tack and weevily biscuits. Perhaps they hunger for the sight of land or the smile of a pretty woman. Perhaps the crews’ unrest grows greater than their need for safety.

The crew bands together. Condition A no longer serves us, they will say. We Mutiny. The status quo dissolves as temporary chaos ensues. After a time, order will be restored to Condition B, but what was will never be again. This is Mutiny, Class ‘A.’

The ship is ploughing its waters with little setback when the crew becomes restless. Who is this captain? He speaks a language that is little understood. He sets himself above his crew. He makes decisions that are impossible to follow, with outcomes that are difficult to appreciate. Before the captain is given a chance to prove his worth, the crew mutinies. This is Mutiny, Class ‘B.’

The captain is at the helm, troubled. The directives given him by the higher authorities do not sit well with his beliefs, though his crew seem well enough with the mission. They grumble under certain tasks, but mostly go about their business, doing as they are told. A storm arises and the captain spontaneously grabs an opportunity to thwart the higher directives by turning his vessel sloppily into the walls of water, knowing that he will be washed away. This is Mutiny, Class ‘C.’ If this captain decides to scuttle himself with the ship and all hands on it, this is Mutiny, Class ‘D.’

Spirits arrive to their incarnation with more ways to exit than enter. Easily, there are as many ways to fail as there are to achieve. In all of this, there is choice, and there should be purpose. Purpose is what people most desire, yet it is the one thing that people most often fail to apply in their lives. Why is this so?

When you achieve, you believe it is because you have done so with purpose. When you fail, do you believe that you have done so with purpose?—or do you fail because you have failed to apply purpose?

Do you Mutiny, and if so, how?

Today, take a measure of yourself as Captain. Look at your vessel and your crew. Test the relationships. Weigh and assess the commodities of your ship for its abilities to move from point A to point B in both calm seas and storm. How are you fitted and rigged? Do you care for your vessel and its seaworthiness? Do you see its aspects as beautiful?

As the Vernal Equinox approaches, dividing equally the hours of solar day and night, 

look at the similar, divisive aspects of your life:

            
How do I support/ sabotage my Self?

            How do I apply purpose in my success and in my failures?

            How does my internal drive match my external ambitions?

            How do my beliefs reflect my truths?

            How might I avoid Mutiny by cohesing all factors of my High Self in my daily life?

How might you Mutiny against the silent, 
invisible factors that work 
in the dark corners where you fear to look? 

Call them into the Light as you raise your flag.

PLANET ‘X’

Can you express the difference in terms of reality between waking and dreaming? 

It was once said by the twentieth century scientist that only a small percentage of persons dreamed in color. This was the accepted theory when television was available only in the spectrum of black and white. Social programming and the assumptions that belong to it made certain that subliminal messaging was blended into the questions and answers of the era’s modalities for scientific exploration and data gathering.

It is so today. Today, it is more invisible to you, because the current procedures arise from your own sociocultural era. 

These procedures and beliefs are common to you, and therefore as difficult for you to see as the sociocultural irregularities of earlier eras were to see for those persons living in those times. Quite often, the world you describe that you are living in and the world that someone outside it would describe, are vastly different.

Let us assume for today that you are living on Planet ‘X.’

On Planet ‘X,’ the difference between waking and dreaming is the difference between inward action and outward action. What are those differences? Is one more important than the other? Is one more necessary than the other? What is possible in each condition? What is impossible in each condition?

On Planet ‘X’ you can choose which tasks will best benefit from inward action and which would best benefit from outward action and divide the tasks accordingly. How will this change your behaviors and beliefs? In what instances will you react and in what instances will you respond?

On a planet where you are being told to Wake Up, are you waking up to what is genuine and true, or are you waking up to a new form of mass hypnosis—a dream within a dream? 

As the vernal tangent called the March Equinox arrives, give thought to this: Is Planet Earth undergoing a Xenogenetic mutation of consciousness and if so, how will your personal power be invested in its equation? More than ever, it is important to be aware of how you believe and why. The New Age is not new and many of its ideas are just as dogmatic and self-serving as some of the outdated structures that it mocks.

Look outside yourself, your culture, and even your planet. Go to the heart of the cosmos and look back on Planet ‘X’ from the quiet and centered space of Great All. As a neutral observer, you might be surprised by what you will see.

ABILITY

          ~~abilities, capabilities, and being enabled


The condition of Able-ness: Ability. While connected to the premise of Capability, Ability is the base nature of both. To be Able to do a thing is a condition connected to a belief. When you apply skills to an activity, physical, mental, or spiritual, you become Capable and then ENabled, to do the task.

In your current state of being-ness, you have the tools necessary to complete a given task. You have Ability—a base condition. You become Capable when you are aware of the base condition (perhaps from past experience) and use it to complete the task—and you become ENabled when you become competent at doing the task.

We use words here to illustrate a point: that you have a base nature which includes the entirety of Great All. You are always Able to do anything that you can perceive at your current level—and—Able to grow into greater skills in your future, things that cannot be seen or known from your current state of belief and being-ness. It is there for you. It does not judge and is endlessly patient.

When you are Capable, you are consciously aware of what your Abilities are. You apply them. You study them and improve them. A dancer learns basic steps and with practice, adds to her expertise, and one day, she will share that gift with an audience. As a newcomer to the art, she first applied her natural Abilities (balance, awareness of space, constructs of movement). 

She became Capable by increasing and perfecting those Abililties. And finally, she shares those Abilities with others, that she and her audience may become Enabled. Her example can open gateways in others: “How beautiful the dance,” “Maybe I should return to dancing,” or “I want to learn to dance and feel that ecstasy.”

The dancer’s Abilities have become Capabilities which grow with her until she in Enabled—rewired for the task—aware of nuance—able to listen to Great All’s voice. She sees the dance in the reeds and the birds and the water. She understands her place in the great symphony. This is most exalting to your inborn Abilities. You have taken a basic model of competence and opened it unto new worlds. Like the dancer, you will have studied and contemplated and done your dance over and over again, thinking always of forward motion and increasing.

As with any gift there are two sides: power (Ability Enabled) and responsibility (use of Right Will, as concerns both yourself and others). 

The Highest Gifts are earned. (Yes, they are gifts—given in recognition of your work. Even workers of black magic must earn the ability to do what they do, though they do not receive skills as gifts, but by making exchanges.) 

At times, using your gifts there in Earth School seems quite thankless. Use them anyway. We understand your need to rest and keep your energy to yourself. Share your self anyway.

This is what quiet time in nature gives to you. Seek those times and spaces frequently to balance out the incoming, and quite often, frenetic energy that bombards your world. Find the Stillness. Absorb the Love and give it back. Stand inside Eternity.

Your Abilities are always greater than you Believe.

DUST TO DUST

When your mortal body was wrought from its elements on Earth, it was also infused with that which is eternal. Even of the planetary ingredients that field and fuse to form what will be your Earthly vessel, there is more still that is needed to make you whole for your journey there. To hold the essence of you that lives in the Great All, the Evermore, you must embody elements that can entail the very high vibration of Light, wherever you seek to have your mortal experience.

These elements are to you as a plant’s biochemical synthesis is to it for rendering sunlight into usable mortal chemistry. The plant’s ability to transmogrify sunlight into green matter and chlorophyll is one of its starring roles there on Earth. The other is its ability to use that same metabolism to contribute to the production of oxygen. Each life form has its own way to take its raw materials and feed something helpful back into its own circle of life.

Your mortal body is aware of this, separate from your ego mind, will, and even your Spirit body. What you excrete in breathing out carbon dioxide feeds the plants (we will not divert by discussing other forms). Exchanges are made. And what of the stardust, the base minerals that have traveled to Earth from exploded stars and other elements to be part of mortal body as you inhabit it right now, reading this?

No doubt, you have heard about this in your sciences, and at this date, have accepted this idea. But what of the Live Star and Its Light? Is the combustion that you see from Earth limited to factors of chemistry as you believe chemistry to be—in Earthbound terms?

Science has shown how chemistry can create a chain reaction that induces a plant to grow, but what has science shown you that can explain what induces a plant to dance when music is played? Growth and development may be observed. Life can only be experienced.

We tell you that you were born with that Eternal Spark in you. All of you. Not some of you.  That Eternal Spark is what allows you to dance, not to merely grow and develop and experience—but to Live. 

Let your Light seek the great source of Light from whence it came.  Feel those connections:  Home.  That is where your High Self dwells.  Never inaccessible, and never unaware of you.  You are never alone or without support.  The Star which contributed its Living Light to you is also aware of you.

Tonight, go outside and let your Light reconnect to its Home. Feel that feeling of joy. You do not need to call anything to you. You do not need to know any secrets. You do not need to travel anywhere or submit to anything or invite guests inside you.

Go outside and let your Light shine. It will show you what it will, and what it will show you will be defined exactly by what you allow.

Rethink today what it means to be a Star . . .

THE NEBULAE

What is it you see in the light?  From the fully wrought stars flinging forward their light and warmth across the dense black spaces between their bodies and yours, what is it in those golden white songs that does what it does?  

That relevant, life giving property that excites the soil and air and water to warmth, that coaxes the sprouts upwards, and paints the lilies in its glow; what magic has it that makes it essential to life on Earth?

What is a star and how did its light come to be in you?
