THE NEWS FOR JANUARY 23, 1999
AN AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS OF LIFE REVEALS AN AFFAIR THAT IS:
WIDE, GRAND, IMMENSE & ALL-EMBRACING,
WHILE THE VIEW FROM SLEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS PRESENTS TO MAN A PICTURE OF A LIFE THAT IS: SMALL, HARSH, PETTY & CONSTRICTED.
WHAT A SHAME TO KNOW ONLY THIS VIEW.
AN AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS OF LIFE GIVES YOU DIRECT, PERSONAL AND TOTAL ACCESS TO THE COLLECTIVE CLOUD OF HUMAN THOUGHT — NOT JUST THE NARROWLY CONFINED ONE THAT IS NATURAL TO EACH MAN.
THUS YOU CAN, FOR A WILLFULLY PRODUCED MOMENT, EXPERIENCE ANY THOUGHT THAT ANY MAN CAN, OR HAS EVER THOUGHT, AND THUS GAIN AN UNDERSTANDING OF OTHER MEN, AND THEIR MENTATION THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE UNDER ORDINARY CONDITIONS.
.(-A TASTY SIDE DISH TO THE AWAKENING OF YOUR OWN CONSCIOUSNESS).
ALSO:AS REGARDS THE TERM, “AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS”: IT SHOULD NOT BE LIMITED IN USE AS JUST A RELATIVE COMPARISON TO, “SLEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS”,
BUT RATHER, EXPAND ITS MEANING TO REFER TO A “CONSCIOUSNESS THAT AWAKES TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL AND TO ALL OF THE POSSIBILITIES AVAILABLE TO IT.”
(SUCH AS THE NOTED, “DIRECT ACCESS TO THE TOTALITY OF THE COLLECTIVE CLOUD OF THOUGHT).
* * *
ONE MAN BEGAN TO THINK OF HIS NORMAL, STARING, LOW-WATTAGE STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS
AS, “CONSTIPATED”: HE ADMITS THAT THE CHARACTERIZATION IS A MITE CRUDE,
BUT NONETHELESS NOTES THAT IT IS “DEADLY ACCURATE & ILLUSTRATIVE”,
“FOR”, (AS HE FURTHER NOTES), “WHEN I AM IN SUCH A STATE,
MY MIND TRULY – ‘CANNOT MOVE’.”
AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS IS LIKE A MIRACLE CAR: IT RUNS BEST ON EMPTY.
99010-2
WARRIORS ENGAGE IN CONFLICTS IN THE PRIMARY REALM WHICH ARE: BODY-ON-BODY, WHILE THE REMAINDER OF MEN DAILY ENGAGE IN CONFLICTS OF A SECONDARY NATURE WHICH ARE: MIND-ON-MIND, AND, (UNLIKE THE FORMER),
NEVER COME TO A DEFINITE, IRREVERSIBLE CONCLUSION.
SIMPLY PUT: IN THE WORLD OF THOUGHT THERE EXISTS NOTHING COMPARABLE TO, “PHYSICAL DEATH”:
NO THOUGHT IS EVER FORCED TO DIE IN THAT IT NEVER HAD A TANGIBLE BIRTH.
ONLY AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS TOUCHES THE INFINITE & UN-DYING IN THAT
IT IS EMPTY AND INCLUDES THEREIN, ALL POSSIBILITIES…BOTH REAL & IMAGINED.
BASED ON SEVERAL NEWS ITEMS READ OVER THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS,
MIGHT WE SURMISE THAT ONE WAY TO WORK TOWARD A STATE OF AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS
WOULD BE TO: “STAND BACK”– AND — “DON’T GET TOO CLOSE TO ‘THAT THING’.”?!?!
…(WHAT D’YA THINK?’ ARE TO UP TO SUCH A SURMISE?’ )
…BY THE BY: IS ANYONE HERE STILL EN NEED OF SUCH A WARNING AS THIS: AN AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS OF LIFE REVEALS A REALITY THAT,
(COMPARED TO THE ONE SEEN BY SLEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS),
IS SLIGHTLY — ABSURD
“THAT’S RIGHT.”, SAID ONE MAN WHO’D SEEN THE TRUTH OF THINGS, “I’M LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE CEMETERY.”
FACT-FOR-THE-FEW: ITS GOOD TO BE DEAD TO THE ILLUSIONARY “SERIOUSNESS” OF “BEING ALIVE”.
LIVERS LIVER — THOUGHTS, QUIVER.
…(WELL, I TOLD YOU NOT TO STAND TOO CLOSE TO THAT THING.)
* * *
ONE DAY, ONE MAN SAID TO HIMSELF:
“IT’S ‘FUNNY’ TO BE AWAKE AND IT’S ALSO FUNNY TO, ‘BE ASLEEP’
….HUMMMMMM”, HE PONDERED, “I WONDER WHICH ONE IS REALLY THE FUNNIEST?’ HUMMM”

AN AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS OF LIFE CAN NOT BE HAD FROM A BOOK:
IT CANNOT COME FROM ANY BUILDING,
IT IS NOT TO GAINED FROM ANYONE ELSE’S MIND, BUT ABOVE ALL, (PLEASE NOTE), AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS CANNOT BE DERIVED FROM YOUR OWN SLEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS.
WHEN IT IS SAID THAT A PIG’S EAR CANNOT COME FROM A SILK PURSE, THEY HAVE IT ONLY HALF RIGHT, AND STILL 90 DEGREES OFF CENTER.
THOSE WHO PUT THEIR FAITH IN THOUGHTS ARE THOSE WHO BELIEVE THAT EVEN IF CINDERELLA DOES DIE
SHE’LL RETURN AS LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD.
LOOK NOT TO YOUR LEFT OR RIGHT:
SEEK NOT IN FRONT OR BEHIND YOU:
PAY NO ATTENTION TO LIP OR DOWN:
AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS COMES FROM BUT ONE PLACE — NO WHERE,
FOR IF IT DID COME FROM “SOME WHERE fN PARTICULAR”
IT WOULD BE FATALLY TAINTED, AND WOULD THUS NOT BE AT ALL, “AWAKENED CONSCIOUSNESS
WHICH IS IN ALL WAYS: UN-COLORED, UN-TOUCHED, UN-BORN AND FOREVER EMPTY.
REMEMBER: ALL THINGS, NON-TANGIBLE, HAVE NO TRUE ORIGIN, BUT THOUGHTS THINK THEY DO….
….WHICH IS WHAT MAKES THEM THE ABSURD DANGER THEY ARE.
TO “BE ASLEEP” IS TO THINK THAT YOU CAME FROM “SOME WHERE”,
PERSONALLY SIGNIFICANT TO YOU,
WHILE TO “BE AWAKE” IS TO BE QUIETLY KNOWLEDGEABLE OF THE FACT THAT IN EVERY SECONDARY SENSE:”YOU” — THAT “YOU” OF YOU THAT IS BASED ON THOUGHTS THAT
YOU HAVE ABOUT YOU — THE FACT THAT THAT MENTALLY-DRIVEN SENSE OF “YOU”
CAME FROM NO PLACE REAL OR IDENTIFIABLE, AND THAT IT IS ON ITS WAY TO NO PLACE REAL OR KNOWN.
THUS IT BE THAT ONLY THOSE OF SLEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS HAVE ANY CONCERN FOR THE
FUTURE, OR INTEREST IN THE PAST. AWAKENED CONSCIOUS EXISTS – AND CAN ONLY EXIST
IN THIS EXACT, INSTANT MOMENT.
YOU CAN HAVE “BEEN ASLEEP” YESTERDAY, OR EVEN IN THE MOMENT JUST PREVIOUS TO THIS ONE — BUT YOU CANNOT BE “AWAKE-TO” AND”CLEAR-HEADED-ABOUT” LIFE AT ANY TIME BUT THIS VERY INSTANT.
SO: WHY LOOK TO ANY PLACE OR TIME BUT THE HERE-&-NOW….
….MUCH LESS, STARE THERE AT?!
TO BE AWAKE IN YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS IS TO BE “ALWAYS HOME”, AND, SATISFIED THEREWITH. THE TRUTH OF WHAT YOU ARE DOES NOT,”SET YOU FREE”, IT IS, FREEDOM ITSELF.
