Welcome to week 5 of my book sharing journey. If you are just joining now, you can go back and read the articles from the first 4 weeks, if you wish to.

Drumroll please……… Okay, here’s the next one:

There are so many mysteries in life, so much wonder that is essentially hidden from our coarse senses, yet can be discovered and perceived by our finer senses, at least that which we have potential access to, based on our being human and the specific consciousness form that we have at our disposal. Our inherent curiosity for new things, new experiences, and new developments has driven our evolution since the very beginning of time, when we were still roaming the vast open Earth freely, exploring the various areas and ecosystems, hunting, fishing, and gathering wild berries, mushrooms, roots, and grasses, and drinking from the rivers and the springs.

Human beings are naturally curious and creative, and the potential that exists within us is truly endless. In these early times we would have never imagined creating machines to fly in the heavens, or around the globe within a relatively short time, and even reaching the moon, whose glowing presence would have guided the flow of life to a certain extent with its steady waxing and waning over the eons. And through the clear observation of all of these natural processes and the benign cycles of Nature, along with the mistakes, problems, upheavals and challenges overcome, the stories created and told, and the lively, deep, and sometimes, I think, very profound dreams, new insights and intuition would have opened up new doors to realms of cognitions and experiences as to that point still unknown, leading the way to new discoveries and ways of life, new knowledge, and new wisdom.

When we sit with ourselves quietly, meditatively, and pay attention, or when we are outside in Nature, or even watching a movie or reading a book, and all of a sudden a flash of insight lightens up our consciousness, and we may be drawn into a plethora of various thoughts and ideas that seem completely new and unexpected, I often wonder in these moments if the insights, thoughts and ideas are actually new. They may have already been thought of at some other time, by some other person, and essentially, we are picking up on them, because we are ready, or because we are resonating at a similar frequency. For example, if I practice Mozart on the piano every day, could it be possible that I attune my consciousness to that of Mozart himself, in the form of impulses stored in “the Ethers” so to speak, just waiting and ready to be rediscovered and worked upon further? This concept is not new and has been referred to as the “Akashic Records” since time immemorial.

I for one think that there is definitely something to this idea, that all impulses of all lifeforms and life processes in all Universes are energetically stored, to serve the purpose of the constant evolution of the whole Creation. This personally makes a lot of sense to me, and I think it is one reason that information can be shared over vast distances and time periods, and this makes a variety of things possible that many of us on Earth today currently have no idea about. I also think that there are other processes and effectivities of the Creation contained as principles of existence that allow us to potentially experience all kinds of subtleties, realities and abilities that would seem like science-fiction or pure phantasy today.

Striving for new knowledge, abilities, and understanding is human nature and it represents the deep yearning of humankind to expand beyond the ordinary, the known, and the customary, to want to make life better, to explore more of the world and the Universe, and to become something more evolved, more knowledgeable, and wiser. As we move onwards in this entire natural process of striving, our lives and circumstances will certainly become unrecognisable compared to today. We just need to make sure that we move forward in the positive, life-affirming sense, and not the negative, destructive sense. Although I do think, however, that even the negative and destructive events on Earth will ultimately lead us to a higher wisdom and a higher culture, but only if we LEARN from our mistakes and change and grow, not persistently and intentionally repeat the negative behaviours and actions endlessly!

As we go through our lives and remain open and receptive to that which we know, we also open up to the new possibilities, that which we do not yet know. When we are mindful, and we take note of our insights as they arise and then share the good ones with others and work together to achieve and create new better situations, circumstances and things, as well as new knowledge, a higher understanding of love, higher ability and wisdom, then this will manifest as the new culture of the future. One thing leads to another, and every possible potentiality is contained within the massive and immense intelligence of the Creation.
