What is Real

If you are familiar with kundalini you know very likely know how meaningful coincidences have a way of happening. You think of something only to have someone mention it later that day out of the blue....or you will stumble on something that has nothing to do with what you were looking for only to have it echo or answer a question you had just recently been asking. These meaningful coincidences, or synchronicities now do not surprise me but are now more like guideposts, suggestions that I look carefuly or consider what I was thinking about earlier. Maybe its not necessarily a validation as much as a revelation which could go in many directions. Today, though, it was a bit of a validation as I asked why someone I know is believing that their version of what is real is so harshly clung to, why? Well, is it possible that as we toil away here with all of our versions of what we think is real, the multiverse is expanding and we are transiting into the next step in awareness of ourselves....something which has been building for decades...centuries even.....and is now coming to a head?

like this...



I think that we are looking with a fresher eye at the quantum universe and are asking just what is real. There was, for example, a meeting between Albert Einstein and Wilhelm Reich (a psychologist who did work with Jung), a meeting that Einstein should have noted in his diary which detailed all of his meetings with scientists who paraded through his office in Princeton to show him their experiements that helped to illuminate something important as it related to physics. In the case of Reich, his meeting was not mentioned in Einstein's notes, but Reich had them in his own notes, and they describe how when Reich showed him his experiment that had a thermometer in a Faraday cage and which would always register 1 degree above ambient no matter what time of day, inside or outside, Eisntein was reported to have said "I don't want to think about it" and that was that. Modern physicists are willing to look at the quirky world of Reich and his assertion that he DID meet with Einstein to show him this experiment, and as a result of this there is finally a fresh look being taken at Relativity and how our world works through the lense of this experiment and just how huge its implications are. As a side-bar for those who might wonder why one degree above ambient is important, is that in Einsteins universe--- time, space, and gravity along with mass are the important factors. But what Reich suggested was that there is a force which produces an energy field everywhere that must be accounted for due to its ubiquity. Some physicists are now suggesting that the reason why we have had such problems getting a unified field theory is because Einstein, for as visionary as he was, simply selected the wrong set of elements to plug into his equation; they are suggesting that perhaps gravity is not the end-all, and that there is another force in the universe, very likely electromagnetic in nature, that gravity might be a product OF or related to in a different way than Eisntein originaly theorized. This has the potential to produce endless amounts of energy (think heat pumps and how they extract energy from the atmosphere...the implications of this in our volatile carbon-based fuel/energy world is HUGE) as well as helping us understand how the multiverse is built or structured (some suggest its electromagnetism that seperates us from other worlds or universes).

Now that goes far afield from what I was originally discussing, but it does perhaps help to illustrate how far off we can be sometimes in our conceptions of how the world is, or what it is we think the world is like. Its as if we have the tail of this giant tiger and because we see this tail whipping around that we know what it is we are seeing. How do we glimpse the tiger in entire? I'd like to suggest we do so through our god natures.....and goddess natures....of which each person has one, thankfully, and that perhaps....perhaps...just maybe...if we learn to remove the debris of our lives, the hurts and prejudices that were pumped into us as kids and while growing up, that we will find a soft center to our being that knows the truth...or is capable of aligning with truth....or perhaps had always been aligned with this truth and all we need do is let go our limiting ideas about space time and that inside of us is a traveler that is unbound by time that caries within it all the records of our travels past and future....but that more importantly, and most importantly, has a love inside of it that is so unbound, so unhitched from our notions fo what love might be that to touch upon it would be like.....like the greatest revelation of our lives....perhaps ever in this current age. And it might just be, maybe perhaps.....that in this age we have come here, at least some of us, with an agreement to wake up out of our trauma-enduced stupor (think how babies were brought into this world just a few decades ago---that's trauma enough to get us started on shutting down....), just enough to glimpse the cracks in the wall of our being and begin a process that has inched along snail slow over these millenia and which has suddenly been building steam right along with our advances in industrial processes and technology......it would make sense, then, that our inners would begin going through a likewise similar trebling of its capabilities....right? Well, okay, so maybe....and if we can get to "maybe" then how huge would that "maybe" be? How huge would that be....would it be as huge as that thermometer sitting mute in that Faraday cage, so mute that someone who had his door open to all great thinkers of his time chose not to say peep? Can we set aside our pride and our swords long enough to just consider that maybe, just maybe, the process some of us are going through is one that is laden with godseed and abundance, that the process could be messy but true and ultimately good.....so good as to be explosively wonderful and good that it might begin a process of washing clean our wounds from at least five thousand years of this experiment in paternalism? I know; its clear I have issues.....and I know I do....and I very much wish to harness them in the drive forward. I am nothing if not passionate--- and passion, gently steered, is a wonderful thing to have because that passion can be felt and then harnessed by others in the form of inspiration, no? Just like in the Kate Bush song Cloudbusting (which was about Wilhelm Reich!) "just saying it could even make it happen..." Oh come on, talk to me....talk to me about hermometers and weird looking cages and how could it be off by one degree and how is it that I am going through what I am going through....and how is it that what I am experiencing could well be what happens when we touch powerfuly upon the divine....is it that we have a moment where we do not recognize it when it comes into others? Did that happen with our great visionaries who were not understood in their day? And is it possible now, though, that instead of just a few the world is being littered with these people who are just now beginning a substantive discussion about whats really important.....and it really has little to do with Faraday cages but about a love so amazingly wonderful.....well, I can't even say how wonderful it is because it has to be felt. But its great, and I know for myself I have to keep traversing these pathways in order to find this state in totality because I think nothing less will do. Hungry? Starving, yes. Starving for it, thirsty like desert sands are thirsty which hold seed beneath their sand blasted surfaces. I think there are others like myself who are likewise hungry.

Most of what is being looked at or considered by our new breed of physicists is nothing new to aboriginal cultures, seers and mystics. The question becomes what is real(not that they would need to ask that, but perhaps WE need to ask that at some point just to stop and take a little stock). We have the world as we know it and yet it begins to interact with us in a way that maybe the old paradigm says it shouldn't. Some might say that's not what is going on, that its delusion or imagination. But that's not it. Something is suggested in this and no amount of pooh pooing will make it go away. It looks like the number of people having this kind of experience is growing. Witness the number of blogs on kundalini. When we begin to ask what is real and find ourselves changed by the very utterance of that question I think we find ourselves in some important waters of the soul.

I think its time that we learn to swim and drink deep.
