Sureal Dream

I had a very sureal yet vivid dream last night. I remembered what I saw so well that I decided to try and depict it. My depiction is very very basic compared to what i saw. I believe I was at the edge of something, i felt like i was at the edge of a river or baseball stands on a dark night. I saw the sky and saw bright lights in the sky. The lights were just a sliver of the moon and I could barelly make it out. The sky changed shape and I saw a dark star appear. I pointed to the sky to get everyone to look at it and I said "Its a solar system". I saw a brown cloud of matter appear and then disapate. The dark star soon turned into a bright orb and started changing into various forms of matter in the same ball shape. It was very interesting, it came up to us and because it was a bright ball of light we thought it might burn us or hurt us. Many of the people pushed it away as did I. Then something inside my told me it was okay. I put my hand up to touch it and as i went to put my hand on it i remember thinking that this could hurt or not. I felt I was throwing caution into the wind. I placed my hand on it and it didnt hurt. It felt good. The object then turned into a grey ball and looked a lot like the moon. It started to grow around my hand and encompass it. The grey ball then changed shape into a face and smiled at us all. the people with me started clapping for it and it grew slightly and started to clap. Its arms were still small and clay, looking more like a seal clapping.

This dream seems to be consisting of part of the movie abyss which i watched yesterday and the day before i was at a beach and saw the sliver of moon and couldnt tell what it was for a while. Its funny how our minds combine things like this to generate the experiences for ourselves. I saw the sliver turn into something magical which did not happen for me in real life although i wanted it to. I got to meet an unknown entity just as mysterious and kind as the one from abyss.

here are the quick sketches i drew to try and depict it.

We are all the same person


Ive thought about this idea for a long time but have always found it hard to describe to people. We view ourselves as separate and that goes for our souls too. We think that because our bodies are separate that our souls must be as well. Ive often thought that this might be wrong, or at least different from what we perceive. We feel separate from everything else but we are one and the same. We derive our consciousness from the same place. So if this is true then really the feeling you have of the being inside you is the same inside me and the next guy. We are all exactly the same being only in separate bodies with separate life stories. We go our whole lives becoming so different from one another we have started failing to see the likenesses.

The feeling of love is the feeling that brings us closer to ourselves. When we sit in nature and view it with love we start to realize through feeling that we are a part of nature and nature is a part of us. Fear is the feeling of separateness. It breeds depression, violence and survival instincts. The need to try very hard to survive because you forget who you are. We give ourselves the gift of forgetting who we are because its the yin to the yang. We need the glass to be half empty and half full. This is the core idea behind why Buddhists say to love the good people and the bad. The ones who live in sadness have forgotten the way of the light.

NWO, Alex Jones Fear monguring

Alex Jones is a well known radio host. He speaks out against the controlling factors of our governments and expresses loudly that we should be opposed to them. He spreads knowledge and fear of the New World Order (NWO). But is this a good thing? We live in a time where we are being manipulated every single day of our lives. Media, advertising, scientific and religious opinion, fashion and self image. We are manipulated into our deepest instincts, food, fear, sex. And this is obvious with what we are bombarded with. Non stop advertising about fast foods, advertisers using sex to sell, then news and other programs showing us what to be afraid of each day. And all this blinds the public. They concentrate on these things rather than looking at what matters.

Alex Jones and his followers consider what they are doing as a revolution, I think its hurting rather than helping. We have always had a controlling factor atop of us, so whats so different now? We are blinded from the truth. TV and media programming is brainwashing us to consume more and more, to fight amongst ourselves, psychedelic drugs are illegal because they make us look at ourselves and see what we are doing to our earth and friends, they also let us see how we are being controlled. We are blind and willfully becoming more blind.

The new world order and alex jones both want to spread fear, whether they know it or not. Fear is a joke, people lock themselves up in their houses and become stressed over everything in life. They become paranoid and worry about everything. This is fear. And its useless. Spreading it will not free us, it will enslave us as it always has. If you dont understand that then you arent really trying. When we embrace fear we embrace worry and doubt. Finding happiness is finding the good moments.

So should we rise up and take out our government, or should we relax and let live the good life while it lasts. I think its the same as retirement. People work their whole lives in misery just to have the last few years of their life in supposed happiness. But happiness to them is doing no work. This is just confusing. The only way to enjoy life is by not working? Then why are you working so hard just to have that? I say have it each day. Dont worry about retirement and relaxing one day. Do it now. Do it your whole life and enjoy it. Enjoy every moment, good or bad. Because there will be good and bad. We cannot avoid it, avoiding it only makes it seem worse. If we master this then life can start to seem good. We no longer focus on the bad, its a fly on the wall. An inconvenient occurrence.

Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged

Matt. 7:1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged."

For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, if we judge with an evil heart or dark intent, His judgment of us will reflect it; if we judge nobly and honestly, His judgment of us will reflect that, too. American culture seems to have turned into a fantastic state of judgment. Our self consciousness reflects this more than anything. The intent on which we judge the world and the beings within it will reflect itself. When we look at a person who has blemished skin and tacky dress, and we say 'look at her, she is ugly and has no taste', we have judged her based on our own ideals. This is the reflection, this shows us that our ideals and hers are different but we view ours as superior. If we are to accept ourselves for our differences then we must accept others for theirs.

Keep this idea in mind for a day or so. Go about your day and have normal conversations and see how and when this shows up. Judgement is constant, it can be positive or negative.
