Who are we?...What are we?...What are we a part of?
This past twenty three months has been so eye opening, emotionally intense, and educational. On August 7th 2021 I wrote my first Esoteric Student post and made a couple more posts prior to hitting upon the idea of pausing to write about my perspective on a “theory of everything” as it appears to me.
I did this so I can return to it at a later date and see how much my view changes with time and the deeper I seek as I investigate more and more. I published this article on August 21st 2021, and already between then and now so much has happened that my perspective…and opinion, has shifted.
I wrote my article with the intention of writing an updated version at some point in the future, however I didn’t expect it to be quite so soon as the NOW is. I realise that while I have some bias towards exploring subjects which I feel may support or dismiss my theories out of hand; I still do not know where exactly my studies are going to take me and what I am going to find.
My goal is to edge towards the truth, and facts regardless of if it is shown to support or deny what I find, and write about, prior to the findings of new information. And that is the “journey” I refer to being on, following the yellow brick road.
But I cannot present my progressive current understandings in a single crudely written post as I did before. This is the role the blog plays, so I can go deep.
Ultimately my main focus is consciousness but at times upcoming, it may not be overtly apparent that what I write and produce is related at all.
This is of course a fictitious diagram and not based on fact |
Consciousness: What do I think?
What are we?
Is a question with few words, and yet contained within is a theory of everything.
There are two more questions which in my opinion “almost” completes a trifecta.
What is our purpose?
What are we a part of?
For me they are the keys needed to induce the most profoundly important and reality shattering mental, and physical exercises in my journey of personal development and expansion.
Trifecta definition: I say that those three questions are “almost” a trifecta because the original use of the word “trifecta” was for making bets on horses. A trifecta means to correctly pick the first, second, and third place finishers at the races, in the correct order. The use of it is now much expanded upon and utilised in many different ways.
But in this instance I am choosing to use it with a question mark (?), due to the complexity and my being unsure with which order, if any, my three questions are appropriately queried.
What are we? What are we a part of? What is our purpose?
They could each be considered to be the same core head-scratching thing.
Yet they also are quite a vastly different question from one-another, especially when expanded upon. I think?
Just like everybody else, I have so many questions to which I ponder over routinely and I do think I know can not truly be answered…currently and not in my physical forms lifetime, but we keep on trying to.
I feel that I keep coming back to such existential and innate trains of thought with a curiosity of warmth and comfort. It is as if my mind belongs to wonder, to see without using phsyical eyes. My mind is loose enough to drift, to flow through…to flow through what?
To flow through something of which I am not able to specify with true accuracy, maybe not any accuracy at all, in fact.
I mean…how i see it currently is super simple in that the matter of that which we are a habitat of physically, meaning bacteria, germs, and all that we are host to; there are good germs, and bad germs which are limited to their situation, they are trapped so to speak.
Now imagine if they were sentient, just as a fun thought and for the sake of this odd writings of mine.
Our body is kinda like their universe, and they are asking the same questions I am here…
Unless they built a germ/bacteria friendly little submarine, managed to use it to exite out our earhole to get a first hand eye witness account of their container, even take photographs and videos on their little germ equipment; and the returned by popping back in to show their population (which is also our own population within us we are host to) what they are apart of, how could they truly know?
They may try to do the same things us earthling humans do amongst our population?
Methods of which I am exploring and going to be writing about on Esoteric Student over the coming years.
My mind is so entangled with such subjects that other questions arise because if those bacteria do escape and bear witness to us, they would then also see that there is a landscape which holds host to us too. Kinda like macro and micro observation of the eternal sort. you know, we could just keep zooming out, and keep zooming in without end in the attempt of removing layers, but only getting as far as revealing new (to us) layers.
Questions, Questions, Questions…
“If the only part of ‘no contact’ that exists is the meaning of those words themselves when being put into the order I just wrote them in, is this an abstract paragraph in its claims?”
Or is the notion of ‘contactless’ the true abstraction?
Meaning, do us humans commonly accept that we all blindly lead into the illusion of distance between physical objects and biological materials?
I think it depends on a person's perspective and personal “theory of everything” but when challenged I wonder how concrete they are when defending the position of being opposite to the facts on the universal scale, and the microscopic, or even the vibrational frequency level, and quantum science?
Acknowledging, Accepting, Denying…hmmm…these things are tricky, one of my biggest issues to work on during my spiritual practice has been “Letting go”...
Is accepting a part of letting go?
If it is, does that mean the other side of the same coin is “Denial”?
Or is the key to letting go being able to do neither of those things by “Acknowledging” only?
Is accepting and denying the same as yes, and no, true, or false, real, and not real?
Is it ok, or is it not ok to ponder such a thing?
Are all of those things judgments in reality based on just what the limit of being perceivably perceptive of the brightest of us?
What judgments have you made while reading this?
What judgments are you making right now?
Is every action and reaction a judgment based off of the limitations of available to us data at any one moment?
Is everything we do a judgment of the future, one moment after the next?
