Synchronicity

I notice more events of synchronicity when I am aware of connectedness. I see them as indicators that
one is "on the right path" so to speak, or what Castaneda's don Juan called "affirmations from the world
around us".

One night while I was driving and listening to the radio and having a particularly good evening with many
realizations, I was smiling and looking at the moon on the water and thinking to myself, "this is one of
those perfect moments", and the radio played a song by Pink called "fuckin'perfect" - it was the first
time I'd ever heard it, and I listen to that station quite a bit so it had just come out.
Another night I was noticing how many amazing things I learn from myself in connectedness and for some
reason the part in the movie "Braveheart" where the crazy guy from Ireland says "In order to find his
equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to god" came to mind. And at the exact same time I had that thought
the radio was playing and the lyric was "talkin' to myself because I am my own consultant" which is from
Lil' Wayne, "6 foot 7 foot".
A third event that happened recently was I had watched "The Secret" for the second or third time and
the part where the guy talks about expecting checks in the mail instead of bills had struck me - I had a
moment of connectedness with it and really gave myself to the fantasy and then completely let it go.
Part of why it was easy to completely let go is I never get checks in the mail, nor have any reason to
expect one. But sure enough, a couple days later I got a check from the auto dealer I had bought my
car from - it was refunding the registration fees for the vehicle. Not the greatest miracle, but still totally
unexpected. I couldn't believe it - not that it was a huge amount of money, but I never get checks and
I had "created" getting this one.
Another small thing that is a big thing personally was during another good night of connectedness at
home, I was making my son some chicken nuggets, and it's the kind of bag with a resealable zip-lock
thing. Anyway, I'd never opened one of these bags and had it tear perfectly along the perforation and in
one piece. They always leave the perforation and rip the plastic and I have to start from the other end,
and even then there are pieces left on the bag where it didn't rip perfectly. So I was aware of this and
before opening this bag I pulled together my intent and saw the piece of plastic ripping off perfectly
along the perforation in one piece... and it did. :) So I have all these little tokens that I find and collect
as messages from the universe, and now I've added to them the top of a chicken nugget bag. :D

I mention these small things because if you've followed this blog you know that big things are
composed of smaller things.
I also wanted to give my perspective on synchronicity. From my experience of the wheel of time/
electromagnetic spectrum/Ouroboros, one sees that all events are simply different emanations of the
spectrum meeting eachother in infinity. So the more aware of this Oneness you become, the more
everything appears as synchronistic, because things that appeared as unrelated before now appear
very precisely related and intentional.
For me, this is more evidence that one has to become "nothing" in the separate ego sense, and then
the connection with the All is more apparent, and this appearance as "All" is Oneness.
Nothing - All - One.

This Castaneda quote comes to mind: "a warrior, aware of the unfathomable mystery that surrounds him and aware of his duty to try to unravel it, takes his rightful place among mysteries and regards himself as one. Consequently, for a warrior there is no end to the mystery of being, whether being means being a pebble, or an ant, or oneself. That is a warrior's humbleness. One is equal to everything."

You are Humanity

The pettiness and the greatness of all humanity is mirrored in the individual self, just like a hologram.
In fact, work on the personal self does not truly lead to happiness or peace unless it leads to the human
being, that essence in each of us that is generic, homogeneous and unitive.
It might help to think that you possess two ways of perceiving - as the individual and as all of humanity.
Can you see it? Can you now see why it is said that Jesus died for the sins of the world?
Can you see that to resolve the conflict, the divisions in yourself, is to solve it for humanity?

From the personal view, we may appear better than our neighbors - more wise, more knowing, more
integrated. But from the human view, our division is the same as every division; the wars, violence,
poverty, ignorance, etc, we see in the world about us is our internal strife manifest. We are responsible.
The lack of unity within the individual is reflected in the world at large.

"The experience of responsibility that is being presented here is the experience of awareness
of oneness, awareness that, at the great microcosmic level, we are not separate. So if, in fact, 
we experience this unity, this non-separateness, you cannot help being responsible."
- Ligia Dantes

Love - Part 3

Well, it's February. What more can I say on love?

Unconditional love is ultimately the unconditional recognition of Oneness/Allness.
It is seeing yourself in others and others in yourself. But I do not mean just people.
I do not consider you just a person in a body. You are the entire spectrum, the All.
And everything that exists exists within this spectrum that is you. So Oneness and love are not ideas,
beautiful thoughts or fantasies. It is the unconditional truth.

Love is resonance, and can appear at any level when alignment/recognition occurs. It can be felt.
So when you love your dog or chocolate silk torte, that is one piece of the hologram that is All.
Imagine the whole spectrum resonating in love/self-recognition - I AM.

To view it in negative terms, imagine the absence of fear, separation, otherness, discordia.
