You Are That You Are.

" If I wanted to shake this tree with my hands I should be unable to bend it.But the wind,which we cannot see, torments it and bends it where it wishes. It is invisible hands that torment and bend us the worst."

Thus spoke Zarathustra in Nietzsche's classic of the same title.

How true a statement that is.It is the invisible forces that control the universe and are working behind the scenes that push and pull us this way or that way.

It is the invisible force of gravity that keeps us from flying off the earth into space.It is the invisible air that keeps us alive. It is the invisible wind that makes the sailing boat move.Yet we tend to view that which is visible as being,'real' and what which we cannot see as being unreal.

From the unseen comes the seen.
From the formless comes the form. From the silence comes the sound. From the silence between the notes comes the music.

The formless is the 'real'; the formed is unreal. Reality is that which has no form, no vibration and no movement.'Reality' has no location because there are no locations, no places, no width, no depth, no up, no down, no space and no time.

And it is this'reality' that allows our 'reality' of form, sound and touch, place and space and time to be in'existence.' It is the hidden structure of the building that we are in.

It is that which is us.We are that invisible force.That is who and what we are.
Hard to grasp isn't it ?
We are so immersed in the sea of illusion; so captivated by its hypnotic dance of movement that we cannot see it.We are like the fallen angel who fell from Heaven and is trapped in this world of illusion.So long has been our entrapment that we believe this to be real.Our memories of Heaven are only touched on in fleeting, magical  moments and dismissed as soon as the illusion kicks in again, as it always does.

We take it all so seriously, when our true nature knows this is no more than a fevered dream and really wants to enjoy this wonderful ride in this truly amazing show, created by us, of lights, colours, forms and sounds.

So why don't we do this ?

Simply because we have forgotten that we are asleep and that this is only a dream.

If you realize this wonderful truth as you can in lucid dreaming ( when you suddenly know that you are dreaming and can take control of the dream content and start to really enjoy it ) then your life can take you to heights you had never imagined.

In your dreams , when you sleep at night, when do you remember that you got into bed a while ago and you are really lying down with your eyes closed creating all these strange events taking place around you ?
You don't do you ?

In our eyes wide open dream we accept the dream we are all living  as being' the real thing'. We are truly asleep day and night.

Ekhart Tolle claims that all over the world people are waking up. Others claim that when we reach 21.12.2012 more and more people will start to wake up.

Let's hope so, because then and only then will we live in the world we want to live in. At present we are living  out a lie.A lie that believes that we are all separate beings, when the truth is that everything is one.

We think we are a little drop of water ( our ego ) , but we are not as we are part of the great sea of illusion.We are one, not only with other humans and life forms, but with the earth, the sky, the sun, the sea and everything there is.Once this belief sinks in and enough people wake up, we really will know and feel that we are not our ego, not our bodies and not our minds. It is then the world will start a new calendar.

Then you will say," I am That I Am.", and the sea of illusion will be no more,as you have returned to the shore you never left.
