Quote of the Day:
Now, if we are to suppose for a moment that life is, indeed — a dream, wouldn’t that mean, then, that eventually, the dream itself is dreaming the dream and creating reality? And if so, wouldn’t that mean, then, that reality is creating you as you dream? Now, if that is indeed the case, wouldn’t that mean, then, that essentially, we are dream characters in each other’s dreams? In that respect, this is my dream from my perspective, that is your dream from your perspective, and our dreams are entangled — isn’t that fascinating? This brings us to conclude that life is a dream, and the dream is very much real and tangible. Every once in a while, it happens that we wake up to know that we are dreaming; every once in a while, it happens that we wake up to a higher spectrum of awareness where the dream is happening. In this higher spectrum of awareness, it is possible to know how truly mysterious life really is. And so you see, while we are at it — we may as well dream lucidly, become awake and aware in a dream, and make the most out of it. But alas, unfortunately, most humans are dreamers who are not aware of the dream they are dreaming.

Now that we’ve had a glimpse of what this new vision entails, we can continue our discussion by noting that these kinds of visions are not new to humanity, for they have existed for thousands of years. You see, they are integral to human nature, and will always be so until we reach that penultimate goal of equilibrium, harmony, balance – from where we can achieve peace – with ourselves and with others. Visions like these are driven by the underlying universal truths that are timeless – we all recognize them whether we acknowledge them or not. Hence, it can be said that through the ages, these same timeless truths keep emerging time and time again, and thus they can be colloquially referred to as “Ancient Wisdom.”
Most important of these timeless truths concerns the basic Oneness of the Universe; Oneness of Life – we are all One, interconnected and indivisible. And so you see, ultimately, the whole of humanity is a single being, having a collective consciousness – the sum total of all human life, having a collective direction and destiny. Each life is a link in a chain of lives, with ancestors at the one end, and descendants at the other; each life in a chain of lives is bound together by cause and effect, different, yet the same. At the deepest level, this means that there is but one God to merge with, there is but one all pervading Spirit, and it is called the Truth, by which The Miracle of Life is made possible – it exists in all Creation, it is timeless, universal, and self-existent; there is but one First Cause that has its Being of itself, and on which all other beings depend; there is but one Infinite Being, so there is but One God – see?
By virtue of the aforementioned with regard to Oneness of Life, it is paramount to highlight the following: every living thing lives within the continuous cycle of birth and death where the remains of one become the nutrients for the other – nothing is ever wasted, everything just transforms into different forms at various times; everything shifts between different levels of existence according to its vibrational frequency or awareness, you see? This same dynamic applies to our Souls and Spirit as well, which becomes clear from the second basic truth. Furthermore, upon deeper examination, one ultimately finds that inanimate objects are energy – like anything else, and contain trace amounts of consciousness, as all energy comes from a source of consciousness. This understanding not only unites everything that happens in the visible outer world, but it also links the inner subjective world to the outer world.

All things – both seen and unseen, are bound together by cause and effect, which goes on to say that nothing can exist in absolute independence of other things or arise of its own accord; everything in the world comes into existence in response to causes and conditions – meaning that all beings and phenomena exist or occur only because of their relationship with other things – see? Many ancient wisdom traditions have known this for a long time, but the Western culture seems to lack this understanding. For example, indigenous peoples of the Great Plains of North America have a prayer of Oneness and harmony of all forms of life in their culture – it is called Mitakuye Oyasin (All Are Related), which is a phrase from the Lakota language; it reflects the worldview of interconnectedness held by the Lakota people – all are related including humans, animals, birds, insects, trees, plants, and even rocks, rivers, mountains and valleys.
The second basic truth is that the universe is an intelligent field that is inherently conscious. It is through this field of consciousness that the inner and outer worlds are connected; we are connected to this larger field of consciousness through our thoughts, feelings, emotions, and intentions. All living things have consciousness and are inseparably linked to all other living things in this Great Cosmic Web of Life; even plants have consciousness – plant’s knowing of where to grow and how to turn to the light is evidence of this – see?
This leads to the third truth, which is that we are participating in the Life and work of God – we are participating just by being ourselves. It is our awareness that ultimately connects us to all other life. You see, all life has awareness in varying degrees, or more aptly, all Life is Awareness – Living Awareness that comes from Spirit. Upon deeper examination, one finds that ultimately, the whole of humanity is a single being – having a collective consciousness, the sum total of all human life; each life is a link in a chain of lives, with ancestors at the one end, and descendants at the other. Not only are we connected to each other, but we are part of, and intimately connected to, absolutely everything in the universe. The key to wisdom is the conscious realization and acknowledgement that we are Life becoming aware of itself in this form we call a human being – Life, finding its way to itself through itself; microcosm of the universal macrocosm, awakening to itself in itself.
Through our eyes, the Universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the Universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the Universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence. ~ Alan Watts.
From another perspective, one might say that we are the universe (Creation) becoming aware of itself – living and breathing, pulsating and vibrating miracle, which is another way of saying that the universe in and of itself is very much alive. In other words, everything in the universe is conscious, endowed with a consciousness of its own kind and on its own plane of perception. In this sense, the universe has a spiritual nature, or at the very least, a spiritual cause; and thus it should be regarded and treated as such. But here we should not make a mistake of confusing Creation with the Creator, for you see, if one wishes to glorify something – let it be the Creator (God). This being the case, let all praise the Unity of God, for you see, there is but one First Cause that has its Being of itself, and on which all other beings depend; there is but one Infinite Being, so there is but one God – see?
This brings us to conclude that in our deepest core we are ancient – Infinite Living Awareness, taking different shapes and forms in the continuum of time. In this sense, we have been around forever, and there has never been a time when we have not existed, nor will there be a time when we cease to exist. We all have hidden within us this deep Ancient Wisdom that’s in every single one of us – we all carry this ancient gift from our forefathers and mothers.
Let us go deeper. Earth is an incredibly and wonderfully complex interdependent network of elements and life forms that co-evolved together. This is why the ancient humans felt a burning responsibility to show their respect, honor and gratitude to the Universe, to Nature, and to Mother Earth which gave them Life. Ancient wisdom holds that humans were created to be the caretakers of the Earth – we were placed here to care for its plants and animals, to protect its natural beauty, to show respect and gratitude for all the abundance that the Earth gives us every day, and to live in harmony with nature and all forms of life.

That said, it is clear that we as human beings are an intrinsic part of the whole – Sentient Intelligence, individuated, yet interconnected and interdependent on other parts. As such, we humans are an intrinsic part of nature, and therefore we need to better understand how to adjust ourselves to the physical environment without destroying it and ourselves in the process; how to be a natural part of the living process, and how to work holistically within the living system.
As mentioned earlier in this section, when we look at today’s world, we cannot say it’s one of peace and joy; rather, we find that we live in the midst of self-imposed chaos, which brings about the question: Have we totally forgotten what our forefathers and mothers have taught us? Upon deeper examination, one finds that this self-imposed chaos is something that we may have created for ourselves to experience in hopes of meeting ourselves – to shake away old, outdated and outmoded structures that no longer can sustain us, which is another way of saying that we can no longer leave ourselves out of the equation. You see, at the moment we find ourselves in between conscious of the limitations of the old, and needing a new paradigm which transcends our ways of thinking, being, and seeing.
Here we arrive at the conclusion: If we want to continue living here on Earth, we need a completely new paradigm; meaning that we need a fundamental change in our thoughts, perceptions, and values. The change begins by shifting our current limited mechanistic view of life to match that of a holistic conception of life. You see, a living experience of wholeness is achieved by opening fully to our own pure awareness, which is another way of saying that clear experience of awareness brings a radically new way of relating to oneself and the world. As we witness the deterioration within the ecological, social, political, and economic world structures, we can experience the re-emergence of ancient wisdom. You see, life is a full circle; coming back around, again and again, in hopes of meeting ourselves; in hopes of seeing and really knowing ourselves; around and around and around we go, in this thing we call life – see?

What is being measured by this concept of fractal-time is the difference between the values you have set, and the values you will set in the future. It can also be defined as the principle of change from one state to the next, from one step to the next. This is the only way a lot of people are willing to allow about their deepest, most important secrets; but if we are willing to open up a little bit more, we can see that most of our problems are not really problems at all. And because we are so used to dealing with the problems that naturally appear in life, we are used to dealing with the problems that naturally appear in our reality. So now, then, what kind of a world are we in? Are we really a part of a larger whole, or do we belong to a vast interdependent and interconnected part of a greater whole? The idea of the Interconnected Multiverse comes from the fact that there is no fixed location in the Interconnected Quantum Multiverse, but rather, there is a space of interpretations to fit the current situation. As such, if we expand this idea to include the Interconnected Multiverse itself, we arrive at this conclusion — the creation of it all is, indeed, a self-organizing, self-regulating, self-healing, self-enriching, self-generating, self-growing, self-evolving process. But nothing is really that simple. As time passes, the mind begins to recognize that it is not so much in control, and that it is more like a living system of transformation, you see? In this sense, when we’re talking about the nature of reality, we can realize that there is a huge difference between the way things are described and the way they are experienced.
The idea of a “God-given-ness” of the mind is, in my opinion, the most important of the new radical “new non-traditionalist” view of the world, because it is the only one that doesn’t just simply say that there is something else, something beyond the body that is separate from it, but rather, is able to recognize that it is separate from it, which is the only way we can understand that the mind is not just some kind of a projection of the brain. This means that the brain is also a mirror, and therefore the mind a reality. The concept of a consciousness that is not even close of what humans are capable of being — this is the concept of a Soul once again demonstrating that it is a non-local phenomenon. We have a hard time explaining away the existence of the world, the other beings that we encounter on our multidimensional path, and ourselves, of course, are not far behind. The modern quantum science-based approach to the understanding of the world is a recent phenomenon, and it has not always been so. In this sense, the concept of energy is very well known to you, but it is usually regarded as an emotional or physical concept, which is why we often forget the past, and how we are always trying to do the impossible. The idea of being a conscious being stems from the idea of being in the present moment. We are the first to acknowledge the existence of the Interconnected Quantum Multiverse — this is the whole of the Multidimensional Self that is contained in the mind, and the idea of the whole of the Multiverse is contained in the Infinite Multiverse inside of you.
So if you are willing and able, it is always a possibility that you may be able to help others to finally face the fact that there is a reality, and that reality has intrinsic worth, and that there is a purpose to living a life of purpose. When we are aware, it is possible to sense and perceive the existence of our life waves in the world around us. In this way, we can better understand the connection among individual cells as a part of the whole. The Ancient Wisdom Teachings of Zāmudū peoples of Omūno-verse, also called Zāmudū peoples of Edūnī-verse, āyatana, bhagavānī peoples, or Primordial Humans, were a Spiritual people who farmed out their Spiritual skills to a select few. The idea of Self-Transformation is another sign of a degraded level of consciousness. It is a beautiful thing, though, isn’t it? The whole of humanity is a beautiful thing, if we allow ourselves to be aware of the fact that even the most fundamental structure of our being is made out of a web of consciousness, is made out of the most fundamental energy of our being, you see? When we allow the idea of consciousness to enter into our consciousness, into our awareness, we find that it has shifted its focus from the reality itself to the idea of the Ultimate Reality itself, which is the idea of the reality itself, you see? From this, the question arises: What is the nature of the mind, is it not a human mind, that of which we are now in the state of becoming? Is it not a mind-based process, which is a process of becoming as a whole? Is it not possible, in other words, to understand the beauty of Life and the purpose of our lives, if we are willing to accept that we are not our thoughts, but the underlying energy of the thoughts themselves — we are in the midst of a continuous process of Self-Transformation, and it is a very powerful force for good in our lives.
For it is not only a human being, but also a Divine Being, and as such, it is equally worthy of respect and compassion; and when two+2 are in the likeness of God, it’s the same as being in the likeness of God, you see? By virtue of the aforementioned having a particular meaning to them, Zen Masters have also defined their own meaninglessness through an interpretation of reality. As such, we can see that all of this time has been stretched into an eternity to create meaningful experience for themselves and humanity via these mediums — electronic or physical in-person encounters. To give an example: a large part of science is the understanding of the relationship of the self with the world, and the nature of the mind with the body. The practice with regard to Zen and the Universe of Quantum Speech in which the fractal-time seems to resemble a matter of language or deeper meaning. So we have these two facets, and rather than proclaiming one is meaning and the other nothingness, they both are in their own time-space. On a deeper level, this means that we are constantly creating new meaning and context for ourselves — which is another way of saying that there is meaning and purpose in this sense and context: a direct expression of the purpose of human understanding within the context of nature. Therefore, it is important to make it clear — whenever one speaks, when the subject of Life is the concept of Life important information can be said: there is a word which we use, and a way of living. In this respect, the idea of Living Consciousness is very simple to understand because it is the simple Living Dust of Quantum Consciousness, which is the essence, the Living Life itself. As such, when we are on this Path we can understand that everything has a meaning; Living Consciousness, by the way: What is Life? This question is crucial to the understanding of the whole process, for you see, humanity is, indeed, the creators of this incredibly complex web of which we are a part.
Therefore, it is important to ask ourselves: Have we done enough? What are our limits? Are we even able to determine the basic payoff of a Quantum System? When we look at things this way, we can understand that we are living in a highly charged and dynamic environment — which is to say that most of the time we are not even Awareness of the fact that we are in the midst of a natural process — we are just passing through on our way to somewhere better. The idea of consciousness is a good one for the mind, since it includes the ability to generate, process and analyze. However, if we are to better understand the beauty of Life and the purpose of our lives, we need to look at the bigger picture. On a deeper level, this means that our perception of the world will be different for different people, because of the way their brains are, you see? For example, the word consciousness derives from the ancient word meaning not-self. In the Western world, the concept of consciousness is also sometimes called “consciousness,” or more simply referred to as our world or our life. In many ways, that is like a machine that in its very nature is very intelligent, and therefore extremely sensitive to the subtle distinctions and quantum fluctuations between the various forms of energy and matter that are produced in the world. This sensitivity is the result of this sensitivity that allows the mind to be the Intelligent Being, which is Intelligent with its own Intelligent Soul, which is the Intelligent Being that creates the world and everything in it. In other words, everyone is an individual, and everyone has their own unique way of understanding reality, their own unique way of being, and of living. In this way, we arrive at an astonishing realization: in the course of human evolution, the human species has also expanded beyond its natural ecological limits.
The first of these is that of why and when we are Awareness of it. The next is that we come to know ourselves and to discover who we are — this is the product of this discovery, in that sense it is always the same, you see? When we are in the state of developing consciousness we are in the state of developing intelligence on the order of 10,000. Therefore, it is essential to understand that the discovery of the existence of the Interconnected Multiverse is the most fundamental question confined exclusively to the situational growth as a profound mystery by its very nature. That is to say, it can be seen that the Quantum Soul of a being, and — through the use of its different parts and their combinations can fulfill its destiny. When we become conscious awareness of the whole, we can see that we have a direct identity as Living Eternal Souls — we have a family, we have a humanity, and we have the interdependence of Life. Therefore, it is essential to understand that the very existence of consciousness is one part of the whole, and it is part of the process of becoming aware of the existence of the whole, which goes on to say that the whole of humanity is a living organism, and therefore our lives are inextricably bound together by many different patterns of reacting and being. In this sense, we are an interconnected fractal-like whole, and none of the things, and that the things are all Awareness and none of the things. We have been taught to believe that our physical material reality is created by our consciousness; however, if we are to better understand the beauty of Life and the purpose of our lives, we have to explore the idea of the Omnipresence of Everything, which is the foundation of All That Is.
To give an example: consider for a moment, that you are the time, the reality and the reality of all existence. As a result, we often don’t know where to look for answers, and therefore we turn to the only people who can give us accurate information — the people who have been there and done that — we can learn from them. There is no other name given to this phenomenon, and yet, whenever you look around at what you call your physical reality, you will notice that the vast majority of your life is being lived in a bubble, almost like a hologram within a hologram. It is like a dream you have had since you were a small child, where you were a small group of people who traveled through time and space to experience for yourself what it was like to be a small child again. In this sense, it can be said that we are all in a dream world, and when we are awake and aware, we are able to see that we are not really living as we are in the physical world. We also have the idea of reality and existence, both of which are conceptions, or ideas, of the same thing, which is another way of saying that our mental activity is a reflection of the surrounding material world. We can, therefore, conclude that there is a thing here that some would call consciousness, or at least some aspects of consciousness, and that is, in reality, a lot of things. So, the question arises: Is there a right and a wrong way that we can take to know the world, and what is the meaning of life? If we are to find out, there is a right way and a wrong way that we can take to know the world, and so the question arises: What is the meaning of living in the present moment? When we are talking about life, we are talking about the experience of a human life; and when we are talking about the experience of life, we are talking about the life itself. When we are talking about the things that are and are not real, true, and unique to our own being, we can realize that there is a huge difference between the two.
What is always the same is the experience of the subject. A man can only really know the existence of the whole of existence — it is something that cannot be understood. If we try to understand the nature and scope of Life or the nature of the mind’s role in the existence of the mind — or the nature of the human body — let alone the idea of the personal or the Eternal Spirit Divine, we shall find that it is profoundly meaningful — indeed, it is. The question is: When the mind is free to do as it wishes, what can it do? It can do what? That which has been kept in the comfort of what? The world of concepts. The idea of the Self is a good example: the idea of the real you is always a process of Self-Transformation. The idea of the Self as a human is a very good idea, because it means that we are not simply a collection of individuals who live in an isolated part of the world. As such, consciousness is simply the state of being aware of our own awareness of that consciousness, you see? We have said before that the fundamental nature of our being is something that we have not been able to figure out — the idea of a living human being is a very good one to start with, I think, because it allows us to enter into a search of and discover how we are, and how we have been created. The idea of the self we have is an idea — a mental image of our own mind that we have created to have that idea. In this sense, the world is a living being, and as such, we are constantly creating for ourselves the needs of the body. For example, it is very difficult to make a human being out of a fact, and it is even more difficult to reconcile that fact with the very nature of the human being.
In this regard, if we are to better understand the beauty of Life and the purpose of our lives, we need to explore the idea of the Omnipresent Awareness, that is a very good question — and here we are asking the question because we have no idea what the question is asking. So now, then, when we are all just serene, we can realize that the natural state of the human body is very much in the forefront of our minds — it is the most important part of our being, after all, what is important about the human body? It is, after all, the most important part of our body. The idea of the creation of the self is found in many different places, including the Ancient Spiritual Path, the New Astrology, and the Quantum Spiritual Science. The term transpersonal level is often used to describe a level of consciousness that goes beyond what can be described as physical science, and thereby becomes a way of being in the world. In this sense, when we’re talking about the nature of time and its relation to consciousness and its underlying awareness, we can realize that time is a way of describing an underlying energy of Quantum Awareness that is present in the world — a kind of Quantum Mind of your Quantum Brain. What is unique about the Quantum World is that it is known to be non-local — that is, events in one part of the world have a greater effect than they should because they are located in a certain part of the world. In this sense, you are in control of the reality of your life, and what is unique about you is that you have already been through the process of Self-Transformation. The fate of the Human Species is an Integrated Whole. This means that everything we have ever wanted to know about Life is already in place, and we are just in the process of creating our own consciousness.

Quote of the Day:
Indeed, there is powerful wisdom in silence, in nothing at all, for everything is a great expression of nothingness; a better suited word would be ‘emptiness’ or sunyata as it is called in Sanskrit. Nothingness is at the heart of freedom, for without nothingness there would not be a sense of being free, and thus no experience of freedom. You see, everything we cling to — limits our sense of being free, and in so doing, our ability to be free — see? On a deeper level, in the context of liberation, this means that everything we cling to must fall away — including all of our attachments to language, culture, belief, concept, identity, emotion, personal history, experience, memory, and knowledge.

When we begin to live in the present moment, we can consciously access the dreamscape itself – this type of experience can be called as the Lucid Living. The best way to explore the mysteries of Living Life is to subjectively explore the different levels of our own consciousness by practicing being more aware.
Awaken the Living Awareness Within Glossary
This type of alive and vivid experience of life (Lucid Living) could easily be compared to viewing a film in an Ultra-HD resolution that has more depth & variety in colors than the ordinary normal resolution. The most amazing thing about this type of living is the fact that the experience isn’t only richer in color and sound, but that the experiencer is embedded in the action and creating the story in real-time.
