HOW DO YOU SEE/EXPERIENCE REALITY?


(for larger image, right-click the mouse and select "Open in new window")

ORIENTATION is a process of transforming consciousness from seeing the world of forms, structures and duality definitions to knowing self and in/experiencing the world as ONE reflection of SELF/CREATOR.

Look at a chair. It is a reflection of SELF/CREATOR. Before the chair (form) existed, it was designed (structured) based on a concept/thought (word(s)) that sprang from SELF having a purpose (will) - needing to sit elevated above the ground. So the chair (form) is an external reflection of SELF willing the CREATIVE process - will, word, structure, form.
Likewise, YOU the reader, are the chair. YOU are a reflection of the CREATOR. YOU ARE THE CREATOR. Take for example, your body. Your flesh, your bones, your blood- it is made of the same "ingredients" as the earth. That is why we eat - we metabolize the substance of the earth to grow.

Now, your body, just as the earth, was fluid before it manifested as earth. You were formed in/from fluids in your Mama's womb. Your body's organs, blood, etc is mostly water, just as the earth is mostly water.

Now, the process of forming you (form) in the mother's womb (structure) could not take place if Mama wasn't breathing air (word). Moreover, if you weren't breathing, would there be a you?
And of course, even if you had air (word), water (structure) and earth (form), without the fire within the body, you still wouldn't be you. When your temperature (fire) drops below a certain level, the body "freezes" and it's systems shut down. On the other hand, if the temperature (fire) gets to high, the body burns and it's systems don't function.

Therefore, YOU are a reflection of the creative process - will (fire), word (air), structure (water) and form (earth). Now ask yourself - does fire have a birthdate? When was air born? How old is water? As an Aboriginal, you are the reflection of the creative process. Thus, Aboriginal people are infinite - they have no beginning nor ending. Aboriginal people have always been here and will always be here.

Now, will (fire), word (air), structure (water) and form (earth) are vibrational states of one energy which is the Creator. Look at fire and water - fire is hot, air is cool. Look at water and earth. Water is soft, earth is hard. Hot and cold are vibrational states of one energy. Soft and hard are vibrational states of one energy. Heat and cold, hard and soft, male and female - all so called "opposites" are only vibrational states of one energy.

Think about when you are hungry, when you are sleepy, when you are awake, etc. Are you three separate objects? No, YOU are one object/energy vibrating in three different vibrational states.

So YOU - your body/form - is a manifestation of the creative process. It is the external form of the internal consciousness of the Creator and it is infinite. YOU are also a reflection of the Oneness of so-called "opposites". You wouldn't be here were it not for your father and mother, male and female. So when I see you, I am seeing the unity of male and female.

Now, look at nature. A cloud passes, it rains. Some of the rain is stored in puddles, pools, lakes, seas, etc. Some of the rain is absorbed by the earth. Plants drink the rain through its roots and use it to grow. The rain is then evaporated from the puddles, pools, plants, etc and it rises and forms clouds and then goes through the process again, over and over. Absorbing and projecting.

Look a tree. It produces a fruit containing a seed which drops to the ground and is absorbed. The seed absorbs water and earth and grows (projects) itself, producing more fruit with seed, repeating the process, again and again. So each tree is just an infinite reflection/reproduction of one energy that is infinitely absorbing and projecting.

Now look at YOU. Your heart and muscles expand and contract. You inhale and exhale. Your mouth opens and closes. You drink and urinate. You eat and defecate. You hear words then you speak words. YOU become one with your male/female reflection and reproduce a child that will go through the same process, infinitely reproducing - SELF.

Thus, YOU are an infinite reflection of SELF/CREATOR infinitely absorbing and projecting. Whaterever you see, hear, taste, touch, smell - is YOU. YOU are absorbing what YOU are projecting. See this, knowing this, experiencing this, is ORIENTATION.

The question is: How does SELF ORIENTATE? What are the steps? What is reality like when I see behind the form and structure to the will and word that Unites the Universe?

The explanation of the creative process and how it repeats itself is very clear. Your example of rain and clouds helps me in grasping the magnitude of ‘being’ and in understanding how everything is connected. However, my questions are:
1.Is orientating just a matter of changing what I see, hear, taste, touch, smell, etc? How does one go about orientating? I ask this question because we sometimes tend to become ‘gun-ho’ about a positively changing our lives and challenging ourselves, only to find that our once best intentions have wore us out. What would you recommend for someone who is new to the orientation thing?
2.When should a person orientate? Is this an ongoing thing, or something to do when you experience a bad moment?
3.What measurements should one use to know they are making progress? I suspect orientation is not just about ‘feeling’ better. What should a person use as their guide?
