[Omnitheus Oneironaut]

In Melbourne, Australia, I helped create an ongoing series of Dance/Healing Festivals called 'Maya Festival' (http://www.mayafestival.com/). During our first-ever event, I went around asking various patrons about their beliefs, thoughts, ideas and opinions on various subjects - all for the benefit of a documentary a friend and I were filming.

I had so much fun hearing peoples' feedback...I thought I'd ask myself the very same questions. The following are my answers:

Q: How important is music in your life?
A: As important as breathing. The music in my life at any given moment serves as a reflection of my mood or 'vibration' at that time. I love listening to Dance, Electro, Trance or Pop in the morning to get me up & going...Jazz, Soul, or World at work during the day....and Classical, Blues, Ambient & down-tempo Middle-Eastern stuff at night to wind down to.

Q: What are your views on Time? Does it seem to be speeding up or slowing down?
A: My views (like me) are never on time (ha ha). Seriously though - I believe 'time' mirrors one's vibrational frequency...so that if it seems that time is speeding up, then it's actually the vibration of the perceiver that is 'speeding up' or going faster. In a sense, there's no such thing as 'time' per se...It's just an illusion (like everything else)...and All is happening simultaneously Right Now...but because we've all been 'trained' to think linearly...then that is what we hence create, and thus experience. The Now is always the same...it's just the setting (& our perception of it) that changes continuously...

Q: How do you perceive Reality?
A: In this way - The YOUniverse perceives Its Self 'through' the expression of Itself that 'I' symbolise...

Q: Would you agree with the idea that You are the Creator of all your experiences?
A: I AM the Creator, as well as the 'experience'; I AM the Origin of that which I experience, as well as the result of all that I create...and everything in between...ad infinitum.

Q: Do you pay much attention to your dreams?
A: Living (& the Awareness of it) is Dreaming...so, yes...as much attention as I pay to Life and Awareness. In other words, the more attention I pay 'to' The Dream, from 'within' The Dream...ultimately the more lucid I AM.

Q: What makes you smile?
A: Nothing 'makes' me smile. I choose to be happy, and hence, choose to smile. I find that I then manifest something in my reality to reflect my smile back to me...

Q: What's the best dream you've had recently?
A: Apart from This One...Not long ago I dreamt that I, along with a group of other people were on another planet. At first we were being given a tour of some buildings by one of their beings - dressed in black, white & silver. The building walls were translucent, so we could view the otherwordly sky. Little flying orbs were buzzing all around us whilst grander ships were hovering around in the sky. Our tour-guide wore a 'helmet', thus concealing its face.
Then a member of our group took out a flute and began playing a few notes. All the orbs began vibrating excitedly and our guide was fascinated and amazed. They all told us if we'd mind putting on a group performance (very 'Interstella5555' I know), so we organised ourselves into a group and began singing - improvising some song (which we ended up calling 'Time').
The beings of that planet were overwhelmed and mesmerised by our music. We felt such warmth and love emanating from them. It felt so good to be singing in harmony with each other...and the excitement and happiness felt within our group, extended out to all the beings of that extraordinary planet. All the sky-ships above us were shimmering in awe, and all the orbs were whirring around us totally getting into it. It seemed as if they'd never heard music before.
They were so appreciative (in their own unique way)...and we really felt as if we had given a special gift to a sister planet - the gift of harmony through co-operation, the gift of art wrapped in delicate melody, the gift of peace...in song. We felt as if we had communicated with them via the truly Universal Language...of Music. Then, I woke up. With a big smile on my face. And an otherwordly tune in my head...

Q: Have you ever had any encounters of an Angelic or Extraterrestrial kind?
A: All the time. It's the close encounters I have of the Human Kind - which are the most perplexing & bizarre!

Q: Could all of this possibly be a grand Dream You are having right now?
A: Of this I AM certain : The more 'real' I believe all of this to be...the more asleep I am. The more at-One I AM with all of this...the more Lucid I AM. And at this point, I'm finding it more fun to be a Lucid, than to be asleep. Every dream is a room...in the House of The Awakened One. 'Reality' is held up by the pillars of Duality, polarities, & separation. The Dream is constructed around the Awareness that one is ONE with All. Where your attention is...There You are. And that which you believe...You BE / LIVE.

Q: What do you love to do?
A: Writing; Reading; Listening to Music; Making Music; Meeting people; Being alone; Being All-ONE; Looking at the Stars; Laughing; Inspiring others; Singing; Dancing; Flirting; Dreaming whilst Awake; Eating Mango Yoghurt...

Q: If you could meet anybody living or dead - who would it be & why?
A: I AM everyONE...living & dead. Why? Because...I AM.

Q: Do you believe in Life after death?
A: I know only of Life...in its many infinite variations & dimensions, expressions & forms. There is essentially, no 'death' - just other expressions of LIFE.

Q: Do you have a telepathic link with anyone?
A: With everyONE - yet there may be other aspects of That Which I AM, who don't believe they have telepathic links with me (this particular 'aspect' that I AM.) Oh well...

Q: What would be your message to all of humanity?
A: Don't take Life too literally...

Q: What are your views on Reincarnation?
A: That it's a very limited & severely linear description of something which is infinitely unlimited and all-inclusive. We are all Infinity having various finite experiences. The concept of Reincarnation I believe is a totally valid and almost necessary step to the realisation that WE are All One Being simultaneously being everyONE Right Now. Yet it's a 'step' that must be transcended otherwise one's reality remains Self-restricted & Self-limiting.

Q: Do You enjoy being You?
A: I AM being...in-Joy.

Q: If you could visit any place in the world or Universe - where would it be and why?
A: Firstly, I AM everywhere at once...but as for this particular 'expression' - I'd have to say, The Giza Pyramids of Egypt...at around 10,000 BCE. Then again, I WAS there at that time...

Q: Do you do any form of meditation or yoga, or what do you do to relax?
A: I AM in constant meditation, thus I AM always calm, centered and relaxed...unless of course I've forgotten that I AM in constant meditation.

Q: What would you like to see more of in the world?
A: Party hats, Hugging, and Smiling.

Q: Are You in love?
A: I AM Love, Love is Life and I AM 'in' it - so Yes.

Q: What will You be remembered for?
A: For Re-Membering my Self.

Q: Jump in a time machine and see yourself in seven years' time - Where are you and what are you doing?
A: I AM still every 'where', and doing everything. I AM still everyONE in seven years' time. I AM still Being...

Q: What or who were you in a past life?
A: Every thing and everyOne. Same applies for 'future' & parallel lives...

Q: Finish the sentence, God is...?
A: It's already 'finished'. Yet, it's just 'beginning' too.

Q: Where is Home?
A: Wherever I AM.

Q: If You could be a colour - what would You be?
A: Sunset Purple.

Q: What brings You Peace?
A: My choice to BE Peace.

Q: If the people of Earth could send one message to our intergalactic neighbours, what would or should it be?
A: Namaste - The ONE within 'us' recognises, appreciates, respects & unconditionally loves...the ONE within all of you.

Q: What is your most recurring dream?
A: This One... Life's on Repeat until you 'get it'.

Q: If you could officially change your name to anything - what would it be?
A : OM...

Q: What was your role in Atlantis?
A: Official Resident Temple DJ; Flying mind-powered star-ships; Scroll writer & Performer...

Q: If you could meet the 1999 version of yourself - what advice would you give?
A: Wake Up.

"The True Nature of Reality"

A man wanted to know about the true nature of 'reality'. One night as he was sleeping, he dreamt that his Higher Self came to him and offered to show him 'the true nature of reality'... His Other Self led him to a room with three tables.

The first table had gifts & treasures all over it : gold coins, expensive hi-tech gadgets, miniature houses & cars, etc. These represented all the 'stuff' of the world - the material world.

The second table contained just four objects, four magical implements : a pentagram, a cup, a sword & a wand. These represented the astral/causal plane of Magick & Creation.

And the third table appeared to be totally bare, except for the table-cloth, which shimmered & sparkled as if it were spun from light. This was the spiritual realm. His Higher Self told him that it was everywhere, part of everything, the essence of All. It contained everything & everything was contained within it. The world arose from it, and will one day fall back into it. "You've always been here & you always will be," the man was told.

At this point, the man awoke.

In ALL his dreams...

~ To eLUCIDate ~

In regards to 'The Best Dream I've Had Recently' question...I personally consider everything I experience to be 'real'...and paradoxically, everything real I experience, to be a dream.

But regardless of whether the experience is in a night-dream, or within This Dream - To me, it's totally valid, subjective, meaningful and definately still a learning experience.

Regardless of 'where' the experience is played out, I can still learn something beneficial about my Self. It's still important for my growth. So in that sense, every experience is thus very 'real'. But I also know & understand that I AM creating every experience, manifesting 'reality' from Thought, and that everything & everyOne is a reflection and an extension of 'me' (or, I AM)...just like in a Dream.

So, did I really do what I did? I guess I gotta ask too - Am I sitting here right now typing away at this keyboard...or am I just making it all up, in an existential sense...dreaming it all up right now?

The answer to both...is the same.

Sweet Lucid Dream ONE'in'All.

I know I speak a lot about dreams and 'reality'. Last night whilst having a shower (water is so good for inspiring clarity), I was thinking about my perception of the difference between dreams and reality - which is namely, in the spelling.

When I'm in a dream and believe it all to be real then yes, it's 'reality' (as I perceive it) - but then, the dream 'has' me.

The dream is reality because it's what I'm experiencing (& hence learning from) but if I fail to see that 'reality' paradoxically is all but a dream...then I'm just as good as dead-asleep.

In a dream, every thing, person and situation is a reflection & extension of me. To be aware of this is to become Lucid. This is 'real-eyes-ing' that I manifest every one of my experiences from sheer Thought all-One... To continue thinking that it's all happening 'out there' and that I'm separate from everything, is to be asleep.

The little dreams we have within This Dream ('real' Life) are the fractals within This fractal, the spirals within This spiral, the Russian Doll within This Russian Doll... The metaphor within This metaphor.

What we learn within those small metaphors can be used to become Conscious within This Metaphor.

Once you think everything is 'real' - The Dream has you.

When you start suspecting that maybe You are orchestrating & creating your entire perceived reality is when - You 'have' The Dream.

The Dream is reality. Reality is the Dream.

The difference is not only in the spelling...it's where your Awareness lies.

Asleep, or a Lucid.

Which ONE are You?

An after-thought regarding Reincarnation. Please be aware that I'm not for one moment suggesting that reincarnation doesn't exist. Together with the concepts of Heaven & Hell (along with a host of other beliefs), these things exist simply because many believe in them (thus creating those realities to be experienced).

There is a 'place' (astral, physical or otherwise) playing host to peoples' ideas of Heaven or Hell. Their belief creates these realms of 'reality' but that doesn't make them real, any more than where we are right now can be called 'real'.

Heaven, Hell, and the idea of Reincarnation exist namely because they are believed (Be/Lived), but they are also merely steps of an infinitely high staircase.

Unfortunately these 'steps' have been used throughout the centuries to control the masses - instilling within them, a powerful sense of fear & insecurity. Religion has made quite a fortune selling Heaven as a reward, and Hell as an eternal punishment.

Reincarnation & the general concept of Karma has also been used for the same purpose (albeit in a gentler way). It's a great technique for teaching compassion, but compassion cannot be taught...only realized & experienced.

Kill a bug and you're told you'll reincarnate as a bug (I'm being deliberately over-dramatic here! But this is what some people believe...) The empathy required to not want to harm something is not particularly 'Whole-y' when it comes from a fear of being 'punished' by your Higher Self, or from the presiding 'karma lords' of cause & effect.

You won't come back as a bug if you kill one - because You ARE ALL bugs Right Now, before and ever after. You also will not accrue good karma by helping that little old lady across the road, because You ARE that old lady Right Now...and through her, You are benefitting from yOUR own assistance, help and compassion. Two seemingly different sides of the same ONE coin...

To not want to harm or kill anything or anyone must come from the realization & Awareness that you ARE everything & every-ONE Right Now.

In this sense, 'Karma' really is indeed literally instant. If you harm someone, yes you 'will' feel the brunt of what you're giving out - because You ARE also that one You are harming...and through that 'one', You are feeling the harm that You are inflicting upon yOUR Self!

Be in touch with yOUR Whole Self to understand this. You will not experience the effects of your actions sometime in the future...(nor are your situations now, a product of some cause sometime in the past.) You are experiencing and feeling the effects Right Now...through 'another' aspect of yOUR Self. Put more simply - You are the Cause always...and only You feel the effects.

Once ONEness comes into it - 'Karma' is no more. It's a necessary step...of the Whole Ladder. But it's still just a step.

Why have 'reincarnation' when ONEness explains it 'all' much more simply?

We are All ONE Right Now...

...merely pretending to be many.

Of this, I AM certain.

"If you can put a name to what you are or believe, the 'Matrix' (or Illusion) has you because names measure division, not Infinite Wholeness." ~ David Icke.

You know the ONEderful thing about 'reality' is when it reflects back to you almost instantaneously - what you're thinking. As it always does. But you can either be conscious of it or not.

Whilst I was writing the above few posts on Reincarnation and Karma, I was thinking that I came to these ideas after really meditating on ONEness, that I never saw these ideas expressed anywhere else by anyone. It was through really understanding ONEness that I arrived at these thoughts independently. And I wondered if anyone else shared my perceptions.

Then I manifested the David Icke book 'Infinite Love is the Only Truth, Everything Else is Illusion' into my orbit (obviously to reflect back to me, my Self). And Wow so. He almost repeats word for word (and more succinctly I'm sure) that which I've been thinking about very recently. It's been truly awe-some for me.

*On Astrology - 'Infinity' turned to the list of birth signs on the astrology page of the paper and said: 'Oh my goodness, this will take me all morning because I AM all of them!'

*On Reincarnation - We don't have to evolve to enlightenment, we ARE enlightened; we have simply forgotten because we are caught in the illusion. Living is a process of Re-Membering and the removal of veils, rather than attaining anything. Why do we need to evolve into something we already are? And what good is reincarnation if in your next life, you still do not know who You are? How can Infinity reincarnate along separate lines of linear experience when it is simultaneously All One?

*On Fate - Fate is Matrix software. Oneness doesn't do fate. There is no such thing as a done deal within All Possibility.

*On Heaven/Hell - Other levels of the Matrix (or dimensional frequencies) include a Christian 'heaven', Islamic 'heaven', Hindu 'heaven', Jewish 'heaven' etc. Same goes for all the various 'Hells'. These aren't real, only the manifestation of belief in the same way that we create our reality in this world. They are 'real' in that many experience them as a result of their beliefs, but they are not 'really' real.

The Illusion doesn't end at 'death' because the Matrix is multi-levelled. 'Death is no cure for ignorance.' At what we call death, 'incarnate' consciousness is drawn by the principle of sympathetic resonance to realms that vibrationally mirror its own state. What you believe when you 'leave' decides where you 'go' - but wherever you 'go' within or after the Illusion is still illusion.

We need to break the cycle of programmed belief and open ourselves to Infinite Consciousness.

*On Karma - We are The One, all enlightened, all consciousness, all knowing, no 'schools' necessary. Do you think The Infinite has to go school to learn anything when it knows everything there is to know? Why should the Infinite have to experience what it has made itself experience? By the sheer fact that the Infinite is simultaneously omnipresent, this already happens...simultaneously. The idea of karma is a Matrix myth to confirm a belief in evolution over 'time' and encourage a state of guilt and self-loathing.

Infinite Love does not judge itself or loathe itself - these are illusions of disconnection.

*On New Age beliefs - 'New Age' philosophies talk about the need to express your own power and not give it away to others, but it is, in blatant contradiction, awash with hierarchy. As mainstream religions hand their minds to gods & priests, so the New Age bows its head to ascended masters, gurus, avatars and other-dimensional communicators like extraterrestrials, angels and the like.

*On Duality - To be caught in the world of duality is to identify with vibration...itself requiring two opposing polarities (to vibrate between) in order to simply exist. There is no light & dark, good & bad, yin & yang... There just IS. To transcend the Illusion, itself held up by Duality, one must see that All is One. There are no opposites or differences, only expressions of The One.

If we identify with a polarity, we create the other. A belief in the 'Light' means that you must believe in the 'Dark' or you would not have to call it 'Light' - It would just BE, no label necessary. There are no polarities in ONEness and so no vibration. There is only ONE and it has nothing with which to resonate. If you identify with any polarity - I am a man, woman, Christian, Muslim, black, white, good, bad, young, old, etc., - the 'Matrix' (The Illusion) has you...

*On The Matrix - The Matrix is a multi-dimensional, self-powered, free energy machine, a system which manipulates consciousness trapped within its vibratory illusions to generate the energy that fuels the system. That energy is fear and it's related to emotions. The Matrix depends on duality to manifest its vibratory illusion and it must keep entrapped consciousness in a state of perceived division to stop it connecting in awareness with The ONE...

- Whoah! Powerful stuff...and only because these are similar things I've been thinking myself recently. ONEness really has blown a lot of illusions out of the water for me. It has also simplified everything. It can be scary if I choose to see it that way, but instead I'm very excited, and welcome more of this illusion-shattering, paradigm-busting, reality-altering, program-smashing-ness. May all the illusory crutches fall away to reveal all it is That I AM.

ONE in an infinity of illusory ways : YOUniverse : I AM.

~~~

I'm not smashing through these 'steps' without having first taken them myself. I'm not ridiculing something I know nothing about. Nor am I lacking gratitude and failing to see them for the useful steps they were. I am not judging those who still have these beliefs...I am merely now, only sharing & describing the view from where I AM...

Once upon a time, I whole-heartedly believed in all the concepts listed above. Did I then make them my reality? Well, yes. But then, as I began to comprehend & understand the ONEder & ONEness of all, all these concepts & beliefs began deteriorating like an old suit one has outgrown.

It served its purpose at the time, yes, but it gradually ceased to 'fit' any longer. And once the outmoded outfit disintegrated, I was left totally unrestricted. Naked. And Free. All divisions were seen for the illusions that they are. And there was no longer any thing left to separate me from the ONE...Being...

I AM.

"A human being is a part of a Whole, called by us 'universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest...a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle...to embrace all...and the whole of nature in its beauty." ~ Albert Einstein.

~~~

The ONE Being...everyONE,

...You are, We are, I AM.

As You are everyONE who's ever lived, is living right now, and will ever live...I have no doubt that you Re-Member one or several of your infinite lives (whether this be through dreams, intuitive flashes, 'feelings' etc). This is how magnificently grand, eternal & 'WHOLEy' You are...

One Re-Members particular incarnations due to like-resonance (ie: the 'you' now, resonating with another 'you' somewhere or somewhen else...).

This doesn't occur for growth or evolution purposes (as You are ALREADY perfectly enLightened & whole - though some may elect to forget this!)...it just happens because it just IS...because You are reaching across space & time to connect with another 'you' who may just be going through similar experiences/thoughts/beliefs etc.

There essentially is no 'past' life, as it's all simultaneously happening Right Now. Same goes for 'future' lives.

You are everyONE who has ever been, IS being - Right Now, and will ever be (though this itself is an entirely inadequate paradox, as time is merely an illusion and there is no past or future). You are ONE...Being...everyONE Right Now...

As I AM.

And Finally...

Is There AnyONE In Here?

"No Snowflake In An Avalanche Ever Felt Responsible." ~ Voltaire.

"Just look at us. Everything is backwards; everything is upside down. Doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, governments destroy freedom, the major media destroy information and religions destroy spirituality"
We think The Dream is reality when we're awake...and we think dreams are reality when we're asleep.
~ Michael Ellner, Hypnotherapist & Writer.

And vice versa. 'Out there' is 'In here'.

We don't even see with our eyes. We 'see' with our brains. Our eyes only transform light into electrical signals that are constantly delivered to the brain for interpretation. The 'visible light' is confined to a tiny fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is, in itself only 0.005 per cent of the matter/energy in the known universe.
It is within this miniscule frequency range that we decode 'light' into 'physical' reality. The eyes don't send images to the brain of three-dimensional street scenes or trees or children playing in the park, or anything else that we 'think' we are seeing outside of us. They send electrical signals. Only when the brain decodes these signals into an apparent 3D reality does the world we believe is 'around' us actually exist.
There is no world 'around' us as we perceive it; everything is all happening in our brain. And the reason why we all see the same reality (agreed consensus perception) is because we're all hooked up to the same One Mind (quite like individual computers hooked up to the Internet), but even more than that, we ARE the same One Mind viewing an 'outside' world via many varied sets of eyes and brains.
'Out there' is merely a symbol, a miniscule 'face' of something far greater. It's only the tip of a cosmic eyes-berg...

"We are perceivers. We are Awareness; we are not objects; we have no real solidity. We are boundless...Forget this and we entrap the Infinity of ourselves in a vicious circle from which we rarely emerge in our lifetime." ~ Carlos Castaneda.

"Reality is an illusion albeit a persistent one." ~ Albert Einstein.
