CONSCIOUSNESS

THE PATH OF POSSIBILITIES

The collapse of the wave we see in consciousness is the moment in which we decide what option we will settle on.  The wave collapses because in this dimension, the decision has been made while in the other dimensions, that consciousness wave is still alive because the decision hasn’t been made yet. We are the sum of our decisions and the choices that we make – this is my theory of consciousness because we take that moment and weigh the options of each decision we make. Do I? Don’t I? Will I? Won’t I?

In one dimension when the wave collapses, I see the ellipse take up on the next when the wave continues – the wave transverses dimensions as it is the connection between dimensions – it is the option or choice we have. The moment in between each moment – the void – the collapse of the wave – until the wave builds again in the next dimension when it attaches itself to the string – or is that where intuition comes in when we know that this is the pivotal moment in time during which we have to make a choice and that choice is where the path of our life takes direction. The wave is the up and down, the ebb and flow of existence.

The expansion of consciousness is the moment in time when this consciousness takes off into the next dimension of consciousness – or would that be the 7th or 8th dimension? 

Just supposition at this point – but the collapse could also be pivotal in the decline of society – when a collective of people changes the narrative of the decisions that are taken where we offer up mankind as the negotiation tool to obtain that which is what we want. What sacrifice are we willing to make to destroy that part of us that gives up that aspect of what it means to be human. Our world becomes so isolated and

It is our choice that determines the content of our mind.  The freedom to be who we are at the core of existence.

We weigh the options we have. We do the what if.

The wavelength – is it the auditory wavelength? What hertz does it belong to?

Is the collapse of the wave, the end of the sound? The sound of the decision being made – the ‘pin drop’ that you can hear – that knowing that the decision you are about to make will affect the direction your life takes.

This is instinctive – we all have that sense of knowing. It could be a niggle or a nudge, a sensory perception of discomfort in your belly or the tensing of your muscles when you know, you just know that this option is not the right one for you.

When we enter the zone, there is a resonance to the impulse we have. 

For instance, the idiom ‘let the music carry you away’ – is very real when we get lost in the music and just go with the flow and relax into the sound waves. Does it resonate or does it jar your senses? What resonates with you?

What cues is your body giving you when you mull over the decision you are about to make.

The rhythm of life is a wave. A contiguous wave that is never ending; it may collapse momentarily, but it picks up again. You see the peaks and spikes and falls if you were to map out the entirety of your life; where each critical point on the path you took; the decisions you made, the ones you didn’t take.  It’s like a spiral one side the spiral lowers while the other side of it the spiral lifts – it takes on the action of a piston.

We create our own reality by the choices we make and by what we can envision for ourselves for the future.  Is this sort of a goal that you set for yourself?

Set a goal and take the steps necessary to achieve it.

Often our primeval self rears its head at regular intervals wanting to draw us back to the reactive self rather than the instinctive self.

It is easier to revert to the primeval self and shed the trappings of civility when our future is threatened or deviates from the path we have chosen.

It is always easier to revert to the primeval self or the primordial self because it is just us and whatever the challenge is.  It takes conscience out of the equation. It triggers the survival instinct and mechanism encoded in our DNA.

The harder part is always stopping to evaluate the decisions we must make. Much like being faced with temptation and making a choice depending on whether or not you opt for the temptation which is the obstacle to achieving the goal we set in mind.

When you weigh for the option to select a different option, you take the path of possibilities because you have come to this point because you know that there must be a change. The unknown and how we will navigate the unknown even though we have built up the skills to navigate it. How do I know this? Because the skills we have brought us to this point.

We are on the path to a reset. Why? Because there are too many people in the world right now who look only to their own needs without caring for the needs of other – the basic needs of survival.

This is where we revert to our Cro-Magnon days – not caring about others or their wellbeing but only our own.

Open yourself up to the possibilities that exist for the future, not the certainties of the past.

The certainties of the past were built on the backs of the less fortunate. Let us open ourselves up to the possibilities in the future that exist when we carry the less fortunate with us in the spirit of helping mankind evolve.

Any scientific development that occurs starts first with the imagination of what the mystery is and how do I define it? Any experiment first must be thought of and that is triggered by imagination and opening our minds up to the possibilities that may exist in solving what the problems are and understanding the nature of things.

Like a child learns not to touch a hot stove again because it hurts, we learn by our trial and errors.

We find what works and carry on from there, but to get there to what works, we first must imagine that this is possible.  Without the possibility existing in our minds, it is not possible. Why is it not possible? Because we haven’t allowed the possibility when our minds are closed. When our minds are closed, we seldom look for solutions to problems we haven’t noticed yet.

Temptation is the monkey wrench thrown into our path to deter us from the end goal. It is the interruption or deviation in our path brought about by our interaction with others.

Attraction and repellant.

The frequency is the wave of energy.

That wave though may be spirals.

Artists, when entering the zone, access the collective consciousness, or the muse as it is normally called.

Think for instance, how does a musician pull the notes out of thin air to create a new wave of music? Do they hear it first in their mind, or do they receive an intuitive feeling that there is a great song within them that needs to be heard.

The carver, carving from stone, often says, they remove what is around the sculpture that is already in the stone – they just remove the debris.  How did they decide on the matter of the sculpture? Did they tap into that collective consciousness to retrieve the data?

How does a painter imagine a new painting when not referencing reality? Where does this come from? Why does the painter choose the colors he or she chooses? What do they tap into when entering the creative realm.

We all know that when someone gets a good idea, one that hasn’t been thought of before, the idea trickles down to a few other people and it is left in the hands of the person who decides to work and expand on that idea.

Is imagination part of the collective consciousness or is it consciousness itself?

For something to come into existence, it must first enter our consciousness as imagination – or a probability.

I heard a talk today about quantum entanglement – at one point they said that 2 people would have to be able to communicate at light speed to reproduce the data in the first experiment.

It seems to me that our other senses were left out.

They have senses which have been named telepathy – for it to exist on this plane, it had to be measurable and repeatable – so the communication on that level would have to be through telepathy.

The other thing is to observe the electrical energy around someone who is either praying or meditating or doing some other form of tapping into the collective consciousness.  It would be interesting to measure, through Kirlian photography, the beginning of the meditation or when the subject prepares him or herself, and then while meditating, observe and catalogue what the energy field is and compare it to the first field of energy at the start. Is there a measurable difference, can we see growth? etc. and then again, observe the energy field at the end of the meditation – what are the changes in the Kirlian photography that captures the energy of the person.

Does Kirlian photography pick up the colors of the spectrum, and do they appear in the person’s electrical energy field? – Some have called this aura – then this also lends to the meaning or symbolism of color, etc.

Supposing that we measured a monk’s field of energy prior to his starting meditation or prayer, then measure the field again mid meditation or prayer, then measure the field at the end of the meditation or prayer, when the monk resumes his conscious view of the world rather than the internal dialogue and imagining of an outcome.

In that respect, can we then say that the internal dialogue and change of state during meditation or energy field presupposes a quantum field? Is it measurable?

Take a novice to meditation – would the results be different at the three points of measurement?

Is the novice able to duplicate the results received from the monks, only on a smaller scale?

In courts, it has been proven that what one observes is not necessarily the same observation that another observes given the same set of parameters.

Why, because human retention or ability to interpret what it is they see is dependent upon the observer’s ability to understand what it is he or she is seeing. For instance, if the one observer is color blind, he or she would report a different observation than the one who is not color blind. There are always variables.

The problem with predetermination of an experiment is that you are not allowing for a different determination, so the experiment is biased.

To my uneducated mind and understanding, these are the problems that I have identified – not to say that they are right, these are just the observations I am making while listening to the hypothesis.

Can we compare the quantum field or string theory to the inner and outer world experience of the person? The mind and the physical. The brain and the reaction.

Take for instance, if the brain can construct new neural paths, could these new neural paths be compared to the quantum reality?

The medical or biological field can look at the body and know that one system within the body is dependent upon another, and it is every system within the body that makes up the whole of the body.

I’m going to have to get myself a book on the ABCs of physics and the quantum field.

Consciousness can also be described as the altered state the experiencer goes through.

Like the past – who we were in the past is the aspect of self that we no longer are. Who we were in the past is what led us to where we are in this moment.

But me in the past no longer exists because I evolved into who I am in the present.

Past, present and future – the state of being necessitates that who I was in the past cannot be who I am in the present, nor who I am in the present is not who I am in the future.  The me in the now dies to the me in the future. The future is also dependent on the choices I make today that will lead me to myself in the future.

  1. Beyond the Subconscious

    It all begins with silence.
    Not the kind that comes at night when the city falls quiet, but a different kind—an inner, transparent silence
    in which there is not even a whisper of thought.
    You stand at the edge of your own mind, and the world,
    which has always been so confident and solid, begins to dissolve into thin air.
    You are still breathing, but it feels like it is not your breath.
    You are still thinking, but the thoughts no longer belong to you.
    And then the question arises — not “what is there,” but who remains when everything else disappears.
    The subconscious is a garden overgrown with the roots of memory.
    Each root is an image, a fear, a memory, a trace of pain, a shadow of desire.
    You go deeper and deeper, and the deeper you go, the darker it gets.
    There is no time here.
    The usual cause-and-effect relationships do not apply here.
    Here, every movement of the soul causes a response in the very fabric of space.
    You see images — not your own, but ancient ones. Faces that lived long before you.
    You feel not only your own pain, but the pain of humanity.
    This is the subconscious: a common archive of everything that has been experienced and forgotten.
    But if you go further, if you are not afraid of this abyss,
    in which the shadows of your ancestors float, you approach the limit —
    and then the unknown begins.
    What lies beyond the subconscious cannot be named.
    Because any name becomes a wall separating what is essentially one.
    You enter a space where there are no more thoughts, no more images, not even yourself.
    Consciousness does not know where to go because there are no more familiar landmarks.
    You do not observe — you are.
    You are not a body, not a personality, not a story.
    You are breath without a breather.
    You are light before light, presence without form.
    Here, even the desire to understand disappears.
    Understanding requires two — the one who understands and the one who must be understood.
    And here there is only one left — the one who has always been there, but whom we have forgotten in the noise of the mind.
    Many are afraid of this word — emptiness.
    But what opens up here is neither cold nor scary.
    It is silence in which everything is possible.
    It is an abyss filled with meaning.
    If the subconscious is an ocean in which forms float,
    then beyond it is the source of water, where even the ocean has not yet been born.
    Here there is no division between light and darkness, good and evil, “I” and “world.”
    Everything merges into one breath, one impulse that pulsates in everything.
    You understand: everything you called yourself is just a wave on the surface of this field.
    And what you are looking for is the field itself, boundless and eternal.
    At this point, the personality cannot withstand it.
    It is created from boundaries — a name, a biography, fear, hope.
    And here there is nothing to hold on to.
    Therefore, the “I” begins to crumble like sand carried away by the wind.
    At first, there is terror:
    If I disappear, who will live?
    But then you see that the one who fears disappearance is the dream itself.
    And when the dream ends, what never slept awakens.
    You do not lose yourself — you return.
    You do not disappear — you reveal yourself.
    You do not die — you cease to be separate.
    It is better to read Between Thoughts not in excerpts, but sequentially — this way, the intention and movement of meanings are revealed more deeply.
    Beyond the subconscious is not darkness, but a silent light that cannot be seen with the eyes.
    It does not shine, it does not blind — it simply is.
    It is the light from which everything is born — from thoughts to galaxies.
    The light that is both inside you and around everything.
    When you first feel it, it seems familiar.
    You cannot explain why, but you know:
    You have always been here.
    You just forgot.
    And now you are returning.
    Once again, there is a body, breath, words.
    The world is dense again, the mind is searching for meaning again.
    But now you know that behind all this is boundless silence that belongs to no one.
    You can suffer, rejoice, dream, love, and fear again.
    But not seriously anymore.
    Because deep inside, there is a memory that nothing happens,
    and everything that happens is just the breath of a single consciousness playing at forgetfulness.
    Beyond the subconscious, there is neither God nor man — there is no division at all.
    There is everything before it becomes something.
    And perhaps that is where every dream, every desire, every love strives — to the source where everything began and everything will end.
    We do not die when the body disappears.
    We die every time we identify ourselves with a thought.
    And we are reborn when we are silent.
    Master or guest in your own home? The paradox of power over thought
    The question of whether a person is the master of their own thoughts is as old as philosophy itself. It plunges us into the very heart of the mystery of consciousness, into that inner cosmos where the “I” is born, lives, and dies. A drama unfolds on the stage of this phantom theater: we are simultaneously directors, actors, and passive spectators. The answer to this question is not simply “yes” or “no,” but a profound paradox that defines the essence of human existence.
    At first glance, we feel like absolute monarchs in the kingdom of our minds. I think, therefore I am, proclaimed Descartes, placing the thinking subject at the center of the universe. This fortress of our “I” seems impregnable. We are capable of directing our focus by force of will, solving the most complex problems, and constructing a logical chain leading from premise to conclusion. In the act of self-reflection, we rise above the stream of consciousness, like a sculptor assessing a block of marble before cutting away the excess. We can catch a thought, examine it, evaluate it as “false,” “disturbing,” or “brilliant,” and make a conscious decision to follow it or reject it. It is in this conscious choice, in this capacity for metacognition, that the illusion of our complete sovereignty lies. We believe that we are authors, not mere readers.
    However, as soon as we pause for a moment and listen to our inner monologue, this confidence begins to melt away. Thoughts come and go like clouds in the sky — uninvited, uncontrollable, spontaneous. Try to tell yourself not to think about something, and that image will obsessively fill your entire mental space. Who is this “I” that observes this chaos, if it is not its source?
    Here, philosophy gives way to psychoanalysis and neurobiology, which paint a much more complex picture. Beneath the thin layer of our conscious “I” lie the dark waters of the unconscious — an ocean of repressed desires, forgotten traumas, and ancient instincts. These underwater currents shape our thoughts long before they reach the surface of consciousness. Thoughts are just ripples on the water caused by deep processes to which we have no direct access.
    Moreover, our mind is not an incorporeal spirit, but a product of a biochemical storm in our brain. Hormonal background, genetic predisposition, simple fatigue, or a cup of coffee — all of this changes the very fabric of our thinking, coloring it with tones of anxiety, joy, or apathy. We do not choose these states; they happen to us. Our thinking is also confined to the invisible cage of language and culture. We think in words that we did not invent and operate with concepts absorbed from society. Our most intimate thoughts are often just echoes of the voices of our parents, teachers, and the era in which we happen to live.
    So who are we? Slaves to biochemistry and unconscious impulses? Or free agents creating our own reality?
    The truth, as is often the case, lies in reconciling extremes. The human consciousness can be likened to the captain of a ship. The captain did not create the ship (his biology, genetics, past) or the ocean on which he sails (the outside world, chance, fate). He cannot order the storm to subside or the current to change direction. In this sense, he is not the master.
    But it is within his power to stand at the helm. He can choose a course by consulting the map of his experience and the stars of his values. He can raise the sails of will to catch a favorable wind, or drop the anchor of reflection to wait out the storm. He can choose which island to sail to, even if the path to it lies through uncontrollable elements.
    Thus, man is not an absolute master-demiurge who generates thoughts out of nothing. But he is not a weak-willed slave either. He is a **navigator**. His skill lies not in trying to subjugate the ocean, but in the art of steering a ship in ever-changing conditions. We cannot stop the flow of thoughts, but we can learn not to drown in it. We can choose which thoughts to give our attention to, which to turn into words and actions, and which to watch pass by like distant clouds.
    Being the master of your thoughts is not about controlling their source, but about controlling your attitude towards them. It is the eternal art of navigating the boundless and often stormy ocean of your own mind. And it is in this art, in this tireless effort of will and awareness, that the true dignity of man lies.
