"But if thought corrupts language,
Language can also corrupt thought."
– George Orwell
It is our ego that drives us to prolong our time on Earth. It is the construct, which fuels our longing for immortality and the lengths we are willing to go to achieve any goal. What we must know, above everything else is the means become the end. Whatever means, we may choose, they will mark the end of our path. Inevitably, our thoughts, words and actions become us. If we choose them poorly, then we become poorly as a result. From a moral standpoint, our actions form a continuum, in which the negative effects of our interactions become the cause of future hardship. Therefore, if we act selfishly or in a judgmental manner toward those in need, we will invariably face similar problems down the line. If we deceive others with malicious intent or out of pure self-interest, then we too shall be deceived one day. Whatever we sow, we reap, but even that must come to pass. When we no longer in a differentiated state, all actions are perceived as internalized movements of consciousness in the form of energy.
Each time, we ask, "Who am I?", we answer the question differently. Our identity evolves, as it is the sum of our thoughts, words and deeds. To be ourselves, we have to remember ourselves, which makes our very identity conditional.
Each time we remember, we reaffirm our individuality. Our existence as an independent person depends on it, but we don't exist as self-enclosed units of matter. Who we are cannot be remembered or forgotten. Our identity, as we perceive it, only appears in consciousness. Underneath, it exists in a thoughtless, wordless awareness, in which there is no "We" or "I", just an "Amness"...simply an indescribable sense of being.
We are nothing and in that nothingness in the recesses of our deepest Self, we are everything. Prior to self-consciousness, we were. Although we cannot conclusively evidence that we were, the theoretical concept truly does not measure up to the reality of awareness. We are prior to thought and mind, therefore our existence persists in their absence... It may take any form, but it must die to be renewed each time. After all, as soon as it becomes the source of its renewal, the game ends. There is little point in playing monopoly, if you are the bank, except to be a safeguard for others. To give selflessly without hesitation or limitation, not to exploit or enslave...To stand when no one else will, not to shirk responsibility for the sake of concentrating power... In enlightenment, we must be a place of solace and healing, where people may take shelter.
The journey to self-realization is your personal experience. It remains ongoing for as long as there is time, but eventually it'll be no more. Even in death, time persists, but it cannot survive the dissolution of space. Despite all this, our spirit is indestructible, its supply of vital force is never-ending. However, as we near the cessation of time, the cycle of death & rebirth also ends. Still, our being does not simply stop. It is without beginning. It is now. It is the uncreated, all-pervasive essence of the present moment. All of time is accessible from an existence buried deep within us in the here and now. We needn't do anything other than witness its omnipresence.
Paradoxically, our being arises from its absence. The deeper we float towards the bottom of our awareness, we realize our non-existence is an existence in itself. Something, which created the many worlds from its luminous body of infinite nothingness. Who we are is not just a question, it is a formless reality. It is the light of all knowledge beyond name and form. It is absolute, regardless of its content, whereas consciousness is relative to its content.
Beingness can be equated with time, and vice versa. This is not to be mistaken with becoming, which depends on its progression. It has even been philosophized, the feeling of being is interweaved with space-time. Awareness pervades every moment. However, when we no longer have the feeling that we are, all which remains is the underlying sense that we are. The minds ceaseless questioning its identity fades. Self-consciousness dissolves in awareness, as the subtlest sense of being.
In-between experience and the lack thereof lingers existence. It goes by many names. Nothingness, the void, silence or others. Yet, all our terms to describe the indescribable denote its vacuousness, but it is far from empty... It purely exists, is there anything greater? It is so empty, it gave rise to all this. It is pure, infinite potential, solidified in consciousness. In the absence of consciousness, it is non-local as well as non-temporal. Therefore, so is its origin, even when it seems to localize.
Beyond forgetting and remembering that we are, we know. We cannot truly forget or remember reality, it is all-present. We can forget reality as much as we can forget to breathe. Deep within, a part of us knows. It is not a matter of remembrance. Nothing can be remembered, when all is known.
To remember who we are requires constant unconscious processing. All of our preferences are stored away in the form of likes or dislikes based on past experiences, memories, psycho-physical requirements etc. Regardless how often our identity as a person seems to change, our sense of being remains the same. It is our only permanent identity throughout the ages. Wherever we go, whoever we become, we are. This "I Amness" is an existence itself.
While we pass from one mental state into another, awareness of our existence never changes. For as long as we are, we have a sense "We are" in the form of a silent knowing awareness, unshackled by space-time. Without deviating from our natural state of being, progress would not be possible. When we are, there isn't the illusion of becoming.
As Albert Camus once wrote, "Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is." We have customized our environment to fulfill our every immediate need without any form of long-term stability. Our refusal to be what we are has led us here to a steep precipice, compounded by an uncertain future, concerning the continued survival of our species. We are more connected than ever before, but we equally abandon each other in our darkest hour by maintaining perceived limitations. Due to the complexity of our problems, they may seem unsolvable, but there is nothing solemn determination cannot solve. If we have the willpower to find a way, then who's to stop us but ourselves? It is who we are: Infinite Potential.
When we let go of everything, we are. At which point, we can be anything. The formless remains formless, even when it takes the illusion of form. For example, light may reflect various colors. Although it truly has no color, it has the potential to appear as every known color on the spectra. Similarly to this, light has no form, it is the building block of all form, matter and energy.
Light is what becomes quantifiable units of energy. It enables us to measure through empirical means, but no measurement can be sustained indefinitely. Name, form or appearance are subject to change. They operate from inside the confines of space- time, hence they must abide by its laws, according to which they decay, slip into the ether and later reappear. However, when they do so, their true nature becomes clear. They are not physical forms, as most would like to have you believe... They are ideas with rather specific qualities, dependent upon their composition. For anything to exist in physical form, it must first exist in thought-form. Mind precedes matter every time. Consciousness (as energy) paves the way for the construction of anything material.
Like a moth to the frame, matter draws its qualities from light, but it can never get too close. When it does, its conditioned existence is forfeit. None of us can stare into the light without being consumed by it. The illusion of the many worlds in all that they appear to be, relies upon averting our gaze.
Imagine vibrations of light, creating a finite unit space, in which a limited amount of time is provided. As the waves of vibration flow outward, they collide, generating new vibrations. They persist, even in the case, if what has produced them stops. Similar to when a star collapses in on itself, the light continues to travel through space. It is perceived by onlookers long after the star itself is gone. Although we live in the frequency domain created from the remnants of these vibrations, they themselves are no more. We vibrate constantly, even if we aren't aware of it. In actuality, the mind is a mere movement of consciousness. It is the effect, arising from the causes for this incarnation. Yet, the deeper, we look into ourselves, the stiller we become. The less, we are, who we thought we were... And that is all our current identity is: A Set of Ideas Existing in Thought-Form.
Matter exists as energy in concentrated form. When they are not densely concentrated, their form remains subtle, but distinctive. Our thought-forms consist out of the same material as the bio-electromagnetic field. They have form as well as substance. Although they exhibit some of the same properties as sound-waves, they are vastly more. They contain your vital energies and even your own life-force. To maintain them, we must keep supplying them with energy, otherwise they lose their distinguishable form. It should be noted, thought-forms produce thought-patterns, just as any set of forms repeated regularly creates a pattern in thought, word (sound) or behavior. In the absence of mind, there is no thought. Hence, mental silence is unavoidable to attain a state of complete inner stillness.
Any thought and word has distinctive character. Its discernible features have a determinable place on the electromagnetic spectrum. In deep silence, these distinctions disappear along with the mind.
Nevertheless, we are not rooted in physical existence by subtle forces, such as intent, thought or speech. They merely serve to produce the conditions, in which we appear. The subtle generates the physical. Korotkov evidenced through Kirlian photography, these subtle constructs, (which also create the molecular genetic blueprint of the body), look strikingly like swirling energy vortices. They actively concentrate energy, translating information to pass it on to the subsequently level of reality until it reaches the material plane.
Important: The material continuum is a biosphere. The two terms, although often used separately, are synonymous with one another. (A sphere is defined as a realm or field. A continuum is a whole made up of numerous parts, where extremes stand at opposing ends and elements change to variant degrees.) Both concepts denote a system that merely differs in appearance, not on an intellectual or ontological level. Every sphere forms a continuum as a unified whole and in its individual parts. Just as, each continuum has
