The SILVER DESERT ... what Gabrielle Roth spent her life making rough Maps of ... is the "territory" from which all the Rhythms proceed. It's the "territory" of Mind ... that which doesn't move while the We that we see, hear, taste, smell, touch, and think we are perceives its movement.
Gabrielle spent her life making Maps. She wrote, "...those who have dared to go into the wilderness, returning to tell stories and offer rough Maps for those who might follow."
The Maps are pointing to the Stillness upon which unintegrated reality effects its motion ... manifesting the perception that movement (aka energy) is real, and Stillness (aka Mind) is not real.
Contrary to popular media-ted beliefs, the mind and brain are not interchangeable terms. Consciousness does not originate in the brain. Even neuroscience says that Mind is a Field ... whereas the brain is an organ within the body ... meaning that the body is within the Mind ... the Mind is not within the brain, nor the body, nor the Ego. However, because Sentient Beings pivot from the Ego ... and not the Mind ... all Sentient Beings are inauthentic.
Feelings arise from sensory-based perceptions ... and thus are not the Mind. It has been said that 99.9% of what you feel is actually based on what you're thinking. Prajnaparamita Buddhists and Taoists talk of 6 senses ... seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching, and thinking. These 6 senses are but one sense of feeling.
The senses can perceive less than 1% of the so-called electromagnetic spectrum ... many experts put that number at .0035%. The 6 senses and the feelings that arise from them are perceptions from the past.
“Phenomenally, we can know no present, as it must be in the ‘past’ before our senses can complete the process of recording it, leaving only a suppositional past and future; noumenally, there is no question of ‘past’ or ‘future,’ but only a presence that knows neither ‘time’ nor ‘space.’ ” Wei Wu Wei.
Is it any wonder that Spiritual Beings such as Buddha and Bodhisattva's viewed the senses as an obstacle to Awakening ... as they can only perceive such a small portion of the EMF, which is itself an illusion ... the universal Dream.
The Bodhisattva Vow is focused on the liberation of Sentient Beings ... from their sentience.
"As man unfolds from sensed man to Spiritual Man he gradually becomes aware of the two-way motion of all effect" - Walter Russell.
All motion originates within the EMF ... that is, Divided Light. All matter is slowed down Divided Light. Even the David Bohm (considered the most significant theoretical physicists of the 20th century) understood that "all matter is frozen or slowed down (divided) light."
Unlike the teachings of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Bahá'í, etc., all that Awakened Beings have uncovered, and promoted, is the realization of one's own Mind ... which is synonymous with Undivided Light ... the Still Fulcrum upon which divided light effects its motion.
Join me for a trip in an amazing LightCraft, a vehicle that can reach the speed of light. We are about to accelerate to so called light speed, that is 299,792 kilometers per second (186,282 mps). If you are unfamiliar with Einstein’s theory of relativity, as we approach 299,792 kps, time slows to zero, space no longer exists, and mass cancels itself out. You do not enter a new dimension, but a dimensionlessness within the Still, energy-less, Bliss of Undivided Light.
For those who have already ventured into this territory, an immediate inner inquiry comes to our attention: "How did we reach a velocity of 299,792 kilometers per second and arrive at stillness?" You just stepped into Undivided Light’s shoes so-to-say ... connecting with Light’s own point of view ... a view, to paraphrase Peter Russell, that UNDIVIDED LIGHT TRAVELS NO DISTANCE IN NO TIME, AND THUS HAS NO NEED OF SPEED. In fact, undivided, clear Light has not traveled a millimeter in all eternity. Like the Tao and Tathagata, Undivided Light does not Come and Go.
Our duality reality of divided (Particle/Wave, Yang/Yin), projected, simulated light is 299,792 kilometers per second slower than the stillness of what Maharudra calls the clear Light of Vajra (and Gabrielle Roth pointed to through the metaphor of Silver Desert). When you realize that, you begin to gnow Who you are, because you have had a taste of When you are ... in other words, you will never realize Who you are, until you grasp When you are.
The nature of Divided Light is not to Divide, but to show the Way Home ... and that pathway is Unfabricated Present Awareness ... NOT the cancellation of Higher Human Potential, forcing everything to be dumbed down so that sensory-based mediocrity is the status quo.
The glorification of empirical evidence by Priests of Science actually encourages an inferior and potentially incurable neurosis for humanity. Nothing wrong with empirical evidence if understood in its proper place, that is, empiricism is based on the relative truth through sense perception.
"Man's present civilization is erected upon the foundation of empirical knowledge obtained through his senses. In other words, the so-called "knowledge" upon which man relies is founded upon the evidence of his senses, or more simply, upon the nonexistent waves of motion of a nonexistent substance." Walter Russell.
"The probability that sentient beings can see reality as it is, is zero" - Donald Hoffman.
