Greetings and Welcome!
I've created this blog to communicate the experience of Oneness and Connectedness employing views from science and metaphysics, with an emphasis on Alchemy, but also including Non-duality, Carlos Castaneda, Qabala, Gurdjieff, Quantum physics, Tao, Dreamtime, Krishnamurti, Hermeticism, Raja Yoga, Gnosticism, Ramtha and more. At the bottom of the page, you'll find related links to websites and videos. Please feel free to comment or contact me.
With much love, Serpentrio Arquila

The Death
Evolution, or spiritual growth, is a process of accumulation and shedding/relinquishment.
The farther I go into "spiritual realms", the more inapplicable my knowledge becomes, like nothing could
prepare one. For a certain span after one realizes one's ignorance, one spends a lot of time acquiring
knowledge. This is necessary, but unfortunately useless when one enters other dimensions.
So little of what we've acquired is essential for life in the spirit. This is why it is termed a death and
a rebirth. Everything is shed like a serpent's skin.
Let me give an example of what it's like. In the "lower" three realms of hertzian, infrared and visible light,
one is acquiring. But all this is shed if one is to go beyond the light. None of the previous is any longer
applicable. It's like conceiving dimensions - the first three are easy, like adding on (acquiring) right angles
to get length, height and breadth/width of a cube per se. But who can draw the fourth dimension? Where
do we add the next line or right angle? No. One has to go completely outside the box to continue evolving...
A quantum leap onto a parallel line which never crosses the previous three lines which can be easily
braided together.

On judgement and discrimination
The more I see of the All-One, the less I see of good and bad, right and wrong, should and shouldn't, etc...
what I call judgement.
Discrimination is a word I apply to checking oneself - for example, to discriminate or discern between
what is judgement and what is discrimination/discernment.
The easiest way for me to know the difference is by noticing the degree of subjectivity/objectivity.
Also, if you feel emotional or defensive about your view, that is a sure sign it is subjective and personal.
Real truth doesn't need to be defended; and one who sees truth doesn't waste time trying to show it
or prove it to one who doesn't see. That is not to imply a hierarchy or superiority - it is simply
acknowledging a fact or wisdom which the seer has lived and learned. If the seer is truly wise and
loving, s/he bows to the Isness, to the seeing, in silent acknowledgement. If still tinged with judgement,
s/he will make a comment like: "Someday, you'll see/understand." which does imply hierarchy. The
purest and best I know is to trust in "the Divine Plan", by which I mean simply whatever is - a person
is always exactly where they need to be. A true seer won't suggest that another should be somewhere
else or know something else.
If you are wise and love your own journey (love and wisdom = philosophia) then you have seen that
every step was essential, no matter how ignorant it may have been at the time or in hindsight. And a true
seer who is wise loves others as oneself, giving them the same freedom to discover themselves and
discover the way. The way is always your own way, your experience, your wisdom.
That leads to what I wanted to say on judgement. A wise person sees that one cannot judge another.
One simply doesn't have the proper context - that is, the context of the person one is claiming to judge!
What good is a judgement which comes from outside of a person's life? It is simply inapplicable.
And to those who listen to the judgements of others: you will be worse off than you were. That is the
view from one who has learned to be one's own authority. But of course, listening to the judgements of
others is a perfectly essential place to be for some people/souls and I am not suggesting you be elsewhere
(which would make me a hypocrite). I am only pointing out different perspectives. If you possess the
ability to choose a different perspective, then so be it. But generally it is not so - one doesn't choose,
but rather one is forced by Spirit (who is sometimes called Circumstance, sometimes Death - Spirit has
many faces).
I'd like to use Carlos Castaneda as an argument, to make my point on context. One can find many
negative comments about this man and his life on the internet. To me, if these people are hurt, or surprised
or shocked or appalled by CC's behavior, or sit in judgement, then they did not pay attention to his books
where he very thoroughly described the context in which he lived. For example, many discuss whether
CC was a charlatan or not, whether his books are true. But if you read the books they say the world one
perceives is only a description, one among millions of descriptions. One will also read that there is no
such thing as a lie in a warrior's life, or that no one is doing anything to any body - there are no victims.
So to call him a liar or charlatan, one has to ignore the many descriptions of Carlos' world and do the
easy (mechanical) thing - apply/project one's own world description which says all these things are
wrong/bad.
There's much talk of Carlos' sexual habits, much judgement. But if you read the books you see that CC
repeatedly was attracted to the ways of the Old sorcerers, despite DJ's warnings. And one also reads
that a man can receive energy from a woman for 7 years by depositing his sexual "hooks" in her womb.
So why the surprise? the offense? the judgement? CC acted consistently with a sorcerer's behavior.
One can only judge when one ignores the context he gave in his books and stubbornly and ignorantly
applies one's own context to a being who was anything but orthodox.
Ok. I'm nearly finished on judgement. One more thing...
A dog bites a person and some will say it's a bad dog. But if the dog was trained to bite people, then we
must say it is a well-trained dog! Context again. But aren't we all trained to do what we do? That is, until
we wake up and live by present truth. So if people are doing what they are trained to do, whether trained
by others or by oneself, what has it to do with good and bad? What need for judgement?
So judgement accompanies a lack in communication - not hearing or seeing another's context but
projecting your own. In this infinite universe, all contexts are valid and true, but perhaps not applicable. :)

good information
I resonate a lot with this guy. Check it out. George Kavassilas
Some of the things I've seen I've never heard confirmed by others until this guy.
And he sees a larger portion of the totality than I have yet.
I don't perceive or understand quite the same boundary lines, but the two universal membranes
are good "landmarks" that give one orientation - I have seen those as "the void" and "the light" (visible).
I understand the electromagnetic spectrum, which fits beneath the membrane beneath his 8th dimension.
I also cannot wholly agree with "good and bad aliens" - so much is subjective, and one mustn't think
of an entire race as good or bad any more than all earthlings are good or bad.

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.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhFrZ4-nxa4
"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."

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.

More on Ouroboros
What I have called the Ouroboros is called the electromagnetic spectrum by science, the Wheel of Time
and the Eagle's emanations by Castaneda, the Rainbow Serpent by Australian aborigines, etc.
When I have described it, it's easier to start from the very small and see how things dream larger
communities together which then become new levels of dreaming/consciousness/awareness.
But this direction shows how we are dreamed.
I must emphasize that when we wake up and see the connectedness and our place in it as human beings
specifically, but as the whole spectrum as well - that all these tiny things exist within you - then you
can be a realized dreamer. You can change the unconscious direction of the flow of the river,
the arrow of time. You can dream your DNA and put to use the so-called "junk" DNA. This is how we heal.
By consciously dreaming with the unconscious (below your conscious awareness) autonomic nervous system, a part of which is called the sympathetic nervous system (Exactly! Sympathy. Dreaming) and another part called the enteric nervous system: http://www.psyking.net/id36.htm.
Do you see the relation - the gut, the dan tien, Castaneda's area of the will, sympathy, dreaming...
So, we are being dreamed, and we are also the dreamer, and we are the dream.
Wise Hermes made a point to say "As above so below, as below so above." It is a two way street:
That which is below is like that which is above, that which is above is like that which is below, to do the miracles of one only thing. And as all things have been arose from one by the mediation of one: so all things have their birth from this one thing by adaptation.
But until we see the Oneness, the traffic goes mostly one way - we are being dreamt by our genes
and our environment. You can wait for your genes to "adapt", or you can be an adept at dreaming. :)
Castaneda has some applicable teachings:
"When I talk about time, I am not referring to something which is measured by the movement of a clock. Time is the essence of attention; the Eagle's emanations are made out of time; and properly, when one enters into any aspect of the other self, one is becoming acquainted with time.
The wheel of time is like a state of heightened awareness which is part of the other self, as the left side awareness is part of the self of everyday life. It can physically be described as a tunnel of infinite length and width; a tunnel with reflective furrows. Every furrow is infinite, and there are infinite numbers of them. Living creatures are compulsorily made, by the force of life, to gaze into one furrow. To gaze into it means to be trapped by it, to live that furrow.
Will belongs to the wheel of time. It is something like the runner of a vine, or an intangible tentacle which all of us possess. A warrior's final aim is to learn to focus it on the wheel of time in order to make it turn. Warriors who have succeeded in turning the wheel of time can gaze into any furrow and draw from it whatever they desire. To be trapped compulsorily in one furrow of time entails seeing the images of that furrow only as they recede. To be free from the spellbinding force of those grooves means that one can look in either direction, as images recede or as they approach."
Consider also influence and effluence. As sleepers, we are influences by the stars, the fates,
the Matrix, other sleepers... everything! Because we are at the bottom rung of Jacob's ladder - the EM spectrum, and "higher" frequencies rule "lower" ones as a rule. This what Paracelsus
points to when he says "a strong will subdues a weaker will." The strongest force known to
science is called the strong force. It holds the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus
of an atom. The weakest force is gravity which acts on galaxies, planets, holds objects to
the earth. So you can see we are speaking about opposite ends of the spectrum:
The strong subdues the weak. The extremely small dream the large. This is the the rule for unawakened beings, but not the entire truth. When we see the Oneness and can change the direction of the arrow of time, we can dream the gods, the stars, the fates, the Kingdom of Heaven! This relates to Gnostic freedom from heimarmene.
