DREAM YOURSELF AWAKE! or Matrix Disassembly In Progress

(Note:  I just today read this article by John McIntosh, and saw how it related directly to some info that came to me yesterday and this morning that was meant for my next post.  So now, I’ll just repost his article and preface it with a few thoughts . . . .)

 

Our shared ‘reality’, the illusional matrix that we have co-created together for eons, is NOW being completely disassembled.  Our individuated consciousness is being ‘extracted’ from this dream world (many consider it a ‘nightmare world’ no doubt) – whether every individual is aware of this process or not.

Wouldn’t this concept very neatly account for the ‘what the heck is going on here?’ question in many people’s minds, explain the unprecedented levels of confusion, mayhem, strife, bewilderment, doubt, self-doubt, conflict, seeking, and just general chaos – mental, emotional and spiritual — of most of the world’s population in these crazy times we find ourselves experiencing as a Collective?

Here is my ‘take’ on the matter:  We are returning to our true Home, folks!  However, when a) one doesn’t even know that one is not ‘home’ in the first place, and b) one has no clue as to what one’s True Home ‘looks like’, and c) one is being bombarded by the MSM every single moment of one’s waking dream with messages, both overt and subtle, that tell you that ‘No, THIS is the ONLY reality, people!’ and ‘FEAR the unknown, don’t trust anybody who preaches positive, uplifting news!  The world/universe really does suck, and we are nothing but fleeting life forms evolved from ancient slime molds, living only for competing and even fighting to survive and breed!’ (even screaming it in your face every day from all angles) . . . . . . Well, I can see how challenging this may appear as a concept to most of the lost souls out there!

Anyway, I strongly recommend that you embrace, and enjoy, this sacred disassembly and quantum perceptual shift (or extraction if you prefer) as much as you can possibly manage to — bit by bit, step by step, day by challenging day.  The veil is lifting on our small but very influential world, as simultaneously the curtain is being lowered on the Grand Theater we have been acting out for untold millennia.  The horror show is over, my fellow players.  Time to take off our masks and costumes, take a nice long bath or hot shower to wash all the sweat and grit off our tired and somewhat mistreated Selves – and get ready for the magnificent after-party!  It is my fervent hope that the following article by John McIntosh will help you all do just that . . . . . IF you put the recommended spiritual technology into passionate action, connecting your naturally brilliant minds with your love-portal hearts, and putting them both to the epic task of your own Grand Awakening.

Dream Yourself Awake by John McIntosh

17 August 2012

While in the dream – the 3D world of opposites, of separation of limitation – nothing you have learned, none of your history is True except … as you believe it to be. Even then, it is still not True but seems True to you while you give it Life through your belief.

When you come to the Moment when you finally see you are dreaming and choose to Wake from the dream all you have is what you have learned within the dream to use to Wake from it … call it your history.

This means you are using a dream to Wake from the dream.

There are a multitude of choices from the various religions and philosophies to the more esoteric spiritual belief systems … many ancient and several relatively new.

You may choose to try many of these techniques but eventually you will find they all lead to stilling the mind – the false ego self – so that Truth can shine through.

The question arises … who is listening and who is speaking? You may hear suggestions of a ‘still small voice’ or the ‘voice of silence’ or the ‘inner guide’ as the speaker of Truth … but who is listening?

If the ego-mind is to be stilled, what is left to listen with?

Consciousness is the screen on which the play of dreams plays and it is also the Awareness that watches it and the player within it. It goes into the play It creates and ‘plays’ in that creation … a dream.

It is the instrument through which the Unknowable One Knows It Self.

Once Consciousness goes into Its creation to have this experience of Knowing It Self, it loses Awareness of Its True Self … Its Divine Unknowable origin. This is done in order that the experience may ‘seem’ completely Real.

It is not a mistake that IT … which is US … has done this.

The season of this forgetting It Self in order to fully experience It Self has ended and Now we are returning to the full Awareness that we Are that Divine Unknowable One.

BUT HOW?

The listener within the dream IS the Consciousness (the player) that has been sleeping within the dream. For the most part the silent voice has not been heard down through the eons of experience but Now the silent voice ‘seems’ louder.

This is because the veil between full Awareness and full forgetfulness has thinned and we ‘hear’ It more easily … which is to say, we hear the voice of Truth, which is US … calling us Home.

Many still refuse to listen and that is their choice to remain sleeping.

For those who choose to listen and follow the guidance YOU are giving yourself, a new dream is being given to you in order to Awaken you from the old one. It is simply that you Are Free … you Are Peace, you Are Joy.

While in the dream … these are just words but the New dream asks you to shift from the flat, lifeless meaning of words to the Vital Aliveness of the ‘Essence’ within the words. It asks you to FEEL the words rather than hear them. This is a shift from the head-thoughts to the Heart-feelings. This IS the Consciousness you Are and Knows It Self as feelings (not emotions).

As you allow yourself to FEEL everything you are Being your True Self and dreaming your True Self back into full Awareness of your Unknowable Oneness or Being-ness.

LATE ADDITION:  I just read a very timely message posted by John Smallman on his blog (after writing all of the above), which ‘coincidentally’ speaks to the exact same theme as this post of mine, and John McIntosh’s article of the 17th.  Sooooo many synchronicities lately . ….  Anyway, John S’s post (notice the same first names of the writers, and of the ‘other’ author in Smallman’s blog post — hmmmm) dovetails nicely on this one, coming from a more ‘purely spiritual’ perspective (http://johnsmallman.wordpress.com/2012/08/19/not-all-of-you-will-awaken-in-the-same-moment/ ).  Hold on tight to your Inner/Higher Selves as the momentous unraveling of the Collective Dream begins to accelerate . . . .

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WHO TO TRUST???

Lots of confusion these days.  Chaos will shortly ensue.  So, where does one stand in times like these?  Where can a person place their trust, when the two main opposing forces are disseminating completely contradictory ‘versions’ of reality, accusing each other of duplicity and chicanery and the rest of it, and trying to dupe us ‘dumbed down’ 99% into supporting their ‘side’ over the other?

 Traditional Faith

We were all trained – I mean raised — to do at least ONE thing well:  Trust and obey authority.  Though many of us didn’t abide very well with that training, especially during and after our teenage years, its influence is ubiquitous.  First, our parents.  Then, our teachers and school administrators (especially the dean or ‘student counsellor’, right?).  Then, the so-called law enforcement personnel.  Then, our politicians and government beaurocrats.  Along with all those guys, most of us were expected to accept, part and parcel and without question, the ‘divinely inspired’ word of our preachers and priests and rabbis and ministers.  ‘Pillars of civil society’ one and all, right?  Oh, I can’t forget this very influential little group:  The newscasters.

 Now, should we just continue to trust them???  Well, let’s look at the situation, the FACTS (briefly).

Who exactly has gotten us into this current horrible mess?  Who exactly has, intentionally or not, led us down not only the path to perdition not once, not twice, but continually over the last century or so?  Who, after the economic crash of 2008, has not only failed to ‘fix’ things, but continued to make things worse than they were before, creating more wars, more poverty, more strife, more dissatisfaction and discontent – and simultaneously demonstrating less collective abundance, less responsibility, less guidance, and (critically important here) much less enforcement of the laws that were meant to protect us from the greedy and corrupt sociopaths in our society?  At the same time, who has actually taken away many or most of our God-given (and constitutionally-given) rights and privileges as natural human beings on this once-beautiful planet?

OK.  So regarding this group, the ones we have been TOLD to trust all of our lives, only a single question remains:  Who in this world (or any other) could actually be worse than them???

The Other Side

On the other side of the coin, we have what have been traditionally called ‘conspiracy theorists’.  I prefer to call them, especially these days, ‘conspiracy realists’.  Remember that trippy old movie with Mel Gibson, Conspiracy Theory?  In the beginning of that movie, good ‘ol Mel is spouting off all these crazy theories to his clients in the taxi that he drives for a living.  I distinctly remember one of them as being about a huge earthquake in Turkey just barely missing putting the president of the US in mortal danger while he was visiting there.  If he would have stayed just a few minutes longer on the ground, he probably would have been killed.  When I found out recently that Russia, China, and the US have all apparently had many talks about their ‘weather weapons’ over the last few decades – about not using them against each other – I remembered that part of the movie.  It turns out that too many of those theories Mel was going on about in the movie have turned out to be actually real (or very close to it, like the MK Ultra program the CIA ran that he was a victim of in the movie).  I won’t even touch the stuff he was saying about Area 51 and the ET-secret government connections. . . . .  Funny how art reflects Nature so often – and Nature even reflects art sometimes.

Anyway . . . . . those who have been ‘into’ this stuff for years and decades have been putting out a lot of information about ‘what’s going on around here’.  The movies Zeitgeist, Esoteric Agenda, Kymatica, Thrive, Loose Change, Fahrenheit 9/11, etc., have elucidated many, many aspects of ‘how we got here in the first place’ – and backed up their research with easily verifiable FACTS and links to truckloads of reference material that anybody nowadays can quickly and easily go look up themselves on the internet (unlike people such as, say, Rush Limbaugh or certain ex-presidents, who don’t point to any verifiable facts or documents at all, but just say asinine things like ‘You are either with us, or you are against us.’  What hubris, what gall!  Well, their reckoning is soon acomin’ . . . .).  Anyway, should we trust them in these critical times?

Well, maybe.  Personally, I do NOT trust them or any person 100%.  Why not?  Well, while I feel most of those whistleblowers and conspiracy types definitely DO have our collective best interests at heart, some of them may not.  Some of them may actually be agents of DISinformation for the PTW (Powers That Were, the Cabal, the Illuminati, Team Dark, whatever – those guys).  Also, some of their information may have been purposefully (and unknowingly) ‘fed’ to them by those same agents.  On top of that, some of them are definitely motivated primarily not by compassion for their fellow human beings, but by profit.  Look at how many ‘survival’ groups there are out there, urging all of us to ‘stock up’ on certain things as soon as possible, and as much as possible – oh, and here’s a great web site where you can order your products right away, and get a 20% discount if you pay cash!  Shipped in less than 24 hours with your verified credit card purchase – Order Now! . . . .

The Third Group

There IS another group of people out there gently but firmly vying for your attention.  In the mainstream media, these generally kind-hearted souls are termed the ‘new age’ people, ‘spiritual types’, or just plain ‘nut jobs’ (along with the conspiracy realists, right?  Totally different species, but the same treatment by the MSM.).  These are actually, again generally speaking, the ONLY group to be promoting a much more positive outlook on things.

Archangel Michael

Their information does not come from recently released documents via the Freedom of Information Act, nor SEC paperwork that directly implicates deception and collusion among the banksters, nor recently resigned or fired Wall Street big shots, nor deep-seated whistleblowers who have come out of the closet to reveal the once-secret shenanigans of our ‘leadership’, nor even ex-astronauts or military pilots who have revealed their personal experiences with things that officially ‘do not exist’.  No.  Some of that ‘alternative’ info may be discussed or referred to in their writings, but is not THE most important aspect of their messages.  Their information comes from what they claim are ‘non-human’ sources:  Angels, ETs, Ascended Masters, Jesus, Mary (both, Mother and Magdalen), God, or various groups of Higher Dimensional Beings.  Though they are the ones least assertive, and definitely least offensive, of the three groups, these people tend to receive the most hostility from others, especially conservative religious groups (though they often coincide in their ‘beliefs’ and fundamental philosophies).  Interesting, isn’t it?

The Final Authority

Just recently, I ran across something the inimitable Albert Einstein wrote:  ‘The Intuitive Mind is a sacred gift, and the rational mind is a faithful servant.  We have created a society that honors the servant, and has forgotten the Gift.’

Wow.  That is beautiful, isn’t it?  And profoundly accurate, in my humble opinion.  I wrote an article last year about the tragic mistake Western philosophy made when it ‘split’ science from spirituality, a la Descartes (see the wonderful and witty explanation in the science documentary What The Bleep Do We Know?, available to watch free on YouTube.).  It appears that the father of modern physics agreed wholeheartedly with that sentiment.

Yes, the Gift.  THIS is what I personally recommend, after decades of deep thought, reading, reflection, research, and hard-core experience, all under very challenging circumstances.  DISCERNEMENT is the key to wading through the morass of information now being poured into our world from every conceivable source.  Higher Discernment specifically.  Use your Intuitive Mind, folks!  Go within.  This IS ‘The Secret’, you see, the answer we all have sought since time immemorial.  Use your God-given Gift!  NOW is the time to do that, to ‘go there’, OK?

Our world is about to explode into utter chaos and confusion — for those who don’t yet know what is really going on at least (that’s still most of humanity, of course).  Most people will not have a friggin’ clue as to what’s going down or, more importantly, who to listen to for helping to define the ‘new reality’.  So stop looking already!  You have, and have always had, the Final Authority within you, you see.  Use it!  Screw anybody who tells you that the rational mind is King and Savior, and that you shouldn’t consider your Inner Voice as anything more than fantasy or delusion or spiritual mumbo-jumbo (or even clinical insanity).  As kindly and diplomatically as you can, simply inform them that you prefer to side with ALBERT EINSTEIN and JESUS (‘The Kingdom of Heaven is within you’) and THE BUDDHA (see quote below), rather than go with what their very materialistic and negative and fearful ‘rational mind’ is telling them is ‘best’.

If you’ve never gone within, never meditated deeply, do it now.  Please.  If not for yourself, for your friends, associates and loved ones.  It will not only calm you down, and reduce your fear and anxiety, and make you feel better about things, and get you in touch with your True Self (hopefully – that may take a few tries) – it may even save your life.  And your Life.  I mean, if Jesus, Mahatma Gandhi, the billions of devout Hindus and Buddhists, martial arts masters, adepts, monks of all creeds (including Christians, of course), and every single yoga instructor on the planet swear by it, shouldn’t you at least give it a try??? 

Take care, strive to remain calm and centered, be discerning, and above all try to en-JOY this Great Awakening we are all experiencing together.  Namaste.

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.   ~ Buddha ~
