Dark Deception

Dark Deception

How is it that one ends up deceived or betrayed? Perhaps there are no signs, and the deceiver is professional. However oftentimes our need for reality to look or be a certain way blinds us to evidence to the contrary: this beautiful place I call home; or this beautiful person I call my beloved.

Out of this tunnel vision we often only see and allow a narrow piece of reality, and we often only see a kaleidoscope - a false picture of reality. Yet this false picture, or narrow piece, can look so vast. Why is this so?

The restless spirit needs to look out to avoid looking in. When an unpleasant inner reality would like to reveal itself, heavy in one’s being, our mind would like not to see this; and of course there will be a tussle upon resurfacing, as it was suppressed for this very reason in the first place.

Upon occurrence of an excessively unpleasant experience - that was too much for our being to cope with - though it disappears from view (from our consciousness mind and our memory), it does not disappear forever, and not from ourselves.

With an expanded consciousness, that which was too much to see and so suppressed, resurfaces and creates ripples and torrents on the surface of our awareness, our mind, and our body. However as a Being with more awareness - and less so identified with our body and mind - that which was suppressed can be seen, perhaps expressed, and dispersed into one’s own energetic vibrating presence.

Unfortunately - as is unfortunate that experiences happen that need to be suppressed - that which is suppressed may, in an unsettled spirit and/or in an unsupportive environment, resurface in an unready person; and so the drama goes up and down and round and round.

A struggling spirit battles between inner turmoil and outer addiction. During this time one may well have visited consciousness doctors without knowing it. Slowly the demons are faced, consciousness and understanding grows, and one day, one feels strong enough to visit a mind doctor. The mind doctor straightens a few of the more noticeable warped thought patterns, you start feeling better, and the mind doctor also starts feeling better.

Now for a rough sketch of a contemporary ‘spiritual’ metaphysics. The journey is from animal, to man, to superman: from body, to mind, to consciousness. Matter is dense energy; mind is less dense energy; consciousness is the least dense energy: the highest vibration. If our being returns entirely to the highest vibration, with no suppressed and compressed dense energy in our unconsciousness, we become all consciousness, and thus disperse into universal consciousness. Universal conciousness - God, silence, the unmoved mover - then compresses to again create matter...and man….and superman: the purest presence; godliness; universal or cosmic consciousness. (Please note that the term ‘man’, as in its root meaning, has no gender bias).

The preceding passage is a rough theoretical sketch of a mystical ontology potentially accessible to contemporary minds. It is also interesting to note here that the forefront of scientific exploration of the universe has it that the vast majority of the universe has quite simply not been yet found. All the entities in the universe all added up should weigh a certain amount; all the known entities in the universe totalled up actually weigh a small percentage of this amount. Most of the universe has yet to be found, and cutting edge scienctific effort is currently being directed into exploring entities such as dark matter: the central issue is the extremely high ‘gravitational’ attraction between certain objects…
