Not sure if you visited Mondo's often but I wanted to share with you this article. I really liked it and could actually 'hear' you saying some of these things.

A new lady to me but I will go and visit her web site when I can.

For all to enjoy..

Divyaa Kummar

We often think in terms of gods creating us; but in truth it is we who create our gods! As humans, we sense our purest qualities and highest ideals encoded in our very DNA, but unable to accept them as "self," we view them outside us initially.

Seers of earlier days viewed these highest potentials, qualities and essences that we truly are, and in order to describe them to the masses, gave them form and name. Life force became Shiva; abundance became Lakshmi; wisdom became Saraswati, etc. To further elaborate on these qualities or essences, whose innumerable facets are highly nuanced--for example, life force can be thought of as simultaneously power, will, desire, and even awareness--stories and mythologies were woven around them.

This is an example of anthropomorphism, whereby we personalize or humanize an abstract quality to understand it better, even giving it a human name, form, and history! It seems human nature to bring the abstract to life to understand it better. The intangible aspects that make up our universe and explain what creation is were too subtle to be grapsed initially otherwise. Through such stories humankind could more easily understand and identify the purer nuances of Self--and thus seek to be them.

These stories also tended to project our source, our God, outside ourselves as our pure vision for ourselves, our goal. The fact is, however, that the qualities described in our mythologies are immanent in our DNA, the record keeper that keeps the whole of our being intact while we play the game of separation and ignorance.

The word "pure" is used without judgment in terms of being better than, for instance, "dense." The only difference between pure and dense is their vibratory frequency. Thus, while pure does refer to our "finer" vibrations, in the larger picture it is these finer aspects of Self which choose the denser experiences to add, ultimately, to their finesse! In other words, finer aspects of Self explore the denser realms to add to the perfection of Self. In this process perfection doesn't remain a static state of being. Yet while we explore the more tangible realms, we retain our purest aspects outside us as gods to merge with! And within us, our DNA propels us forward as seekers.

If our thoughts and feelings are the power through which we create life, it follows that a critical mass of humans conjuring their gods in any given instance will actually create these forms on inner levels. In such cases we feel the "presence" of these gods and consider them "real," thereby strengthening our belief in "them" and adding to the vitality that we first created, ourselves, on the inner planes. In so doing, we literally draw succor from these tangible (if not physical) forms that hold (or are shaped by) our own highest potentials!

If we can now make our gods more human(e)--not merely view them in the lofty, out of reach way appropriate to early humankind--our gods will indeed exist as you and I do ... and the new avatars that the world has been waiting for will finally be. Now is the time, and you are such an avatar!

Let's take this a step further and view our mythological gods even more clearly as the pure potentials and qualities of ourselves inherent in our DNA. I contend that our historical gods, such as Buddha, Jesus, Mahavir and Mohammed (to name a few), were human beings just like us who succeeded in actualizing these pure genetic potentials within themselves.

Similarly, we are yet unknown gods unraveling the potential in our DNA--what science sometimes describes as extending the frontiers of our brain. As for the God-self from which we metaphorically "descend" ... it isn't outside as we usually imagine. There is no outside, only the cosmic play of the Whole that we ourselves are. We are here in this time and space to grasp this truth at a deeper level than merely the intellectual--to play the game of becoming God ... within!

Our historical gods (like all of us) are each a unique exploration of the Whole; a finely honed focus of the Whole--actualizing an inimitable, distinctive aspect of the Whole. Thus each god displays a different facet, with no one "teaching" exactly the same things. Sometimes humanity gets confused as to what is the truth. That's the whole point of creation, in which each individuation explores and actualizes a unique aspect of the Whole for the Whole.

We imbue the Whole with a unique slant. We desire a distinctive experience of and for the Whole. We must not become perplexed by what the different gods are saying, but take from each god what helps us create our own vision and realization in and of the Whole. For if we all "go back" with the same picture of our travels here, what a waste of eternity! Yet bear in mind that actualizing any one aspect of our divinity to its fullest potential automatically leads to actualize all our other divine qualities--for each facet is only a doorway. Once we "enter" the Whole through it, we actualize all that is within.

If we keep in mind that our external gods, in the largest sense, are "earlier" aspects of Self, we do not feel so distanced from our highest potentials. Indeed, the gods are never stagnant, finished ... but change and expand every moment through us--their "selves." Perfection is a dynamic state of being ... not an end in itself. We contribute to our god selves even as they to us ... What a beautiful cycle!

Aquarian thought energy will only increase from now foward. The material available now, as opposed to 1965 when I got into the Bailey books, is of such a higher quality it is amazing. What was, back then, hidden, esoteric information shared only by a relative few, is today becoming the norm. The Hundreth Monkey phenomenon apparently is true.

The Hundredth Monkey

Oh, when you mentioned the Hundredth Monkey, it rang a vague bell. So I tracked down the story.
SO glad I did - how wonderful!

Thanks Striver.......isn't it just so exciting?!

********************************************************

The Hundredth Monkey
by Ken Keyes, jr.
The Japanese monkey, Macaca fuscata, had been observed in the wild for a period of over 30 years.

In 1952, on the island of Koshima, scientists were providing monkeys with sweet potatoes dropped in the sand. The monkeys liked the taste of the raw sweet potatoes, but they found the dirt unpleasant.

An 18-month-old female named Imo found she could solve the problem by washing the potatoes in a nearby stream. She taught this trick to her mother. Her playmates also learned this new way and they taught their mothers too.

This cultural innovation was gradually picked up by various monkeys before the eyes of the scientists.

Between 1952 and 1958 all the young monkeys learned to wash the sandy sweet potatoes to make them more palatable.

Only the adults who imitated their children learned this social improvement. Other adults kept eating the dirty sweet potatoes.

Then something startling took place. In the autumn of 1958, a certain number of Koshima monkeys were washing sweet potatoes -- the exact number is not known.

Let us suppose that when the sun rose one morning there were 99 monkeys on Koshima Island who had learned to wash their sweet potatoes.

Let's further suppose that later that morning, the hundredth monkey learned to wash potatoes.

THEN IT HAPPENED!

By that evening almost everyone in the tribe was washing sweet potatoes before eating them.

The added energy of this hundredth monkey somehow created an ideological breakthrough!

But notice.

A most surprising thing observed by these scientists was that the habit of washing sweet potatoes then jumped over the sea --

Colonies of monkeys on other islands and the mainland troop of monkeys at Takasakiyama began washing their sweet potatoes.

Thus, when a certain critical number achieves an awareness, this new awareness may be communicated from mind to mind.

Although the exact number may vary, this Hundredth Monkey Phenomenon means that when only a limited number of people know of a new way, it may remain the conscious property of these people.

But there is a point at which if only one more person tunes-in to a new awareness, a field is strengthened so that this awareness is picked up by almost everyone!

"..when a certain critical number achieves an awareness, this new awareness may be communicated from mind to mind....."

Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!

" It seems human nature to bring the abstract to life to understand it better."

It is suggested that bringing to "life" the abstract can be done by naming it. However, is the MIND brought any more to "life" by using the term "MIND" to refer to that non-physical reality this name refers to?

How about Soul? Or Self? Etc. It is the "Delusional Thinking" being fed to the Left-Hemisphere of ones brain by ones MIND that causes one to "think" that one better "knows" something that one still, despite having a name for what one does not know, still does not know that thing. "Know" of course being the actual experience of a thing.

One may leave the physical plane and experience the reality of a plane ones brain can only name, or one can delusionally "think" one knows something because one has a name for what one has not experienced.

The core reality is surprisingly omitted in the thinking of many people. Man consists of three simultaneously existing and yet vibrationally separate realms of reality, only one of which is physical and capable of being perceived by ones brain and thinking. To "know" the other two, one must actually experience them while within their vibrational realities... otherwise ones reference to them is merely delusional, via "abstract" pointers to the unknown.

Peace

Good post. We are told very simplly in Christian scripture to acquire Christ mind. The Bible gives allegorically the appearence of mind (the serpent) and the method of acquiring, through its evolution in quality, this quality mind called Christ in the Occident (as you know, the East calls it the clear, cold, light of right reason). But Orthodox Christianity has made the subjective, objective thereby voiding the process. The Orient and the Occident, the left and right hemispheres of the global brain...the two crosses with Christ at their center symbolising balance, equilibrised energy...the horn in the center of the Unicorn's head...Heracles between the two columns of the temple...Arjuna between Crishna and Arjuna's family, and other symbols for balance of the pairs of opposites as they're called in the Orient. Christ mind, the catalyst causing at-one-ment. An at-one-ment Christianity has corrupted into "The Vicarious Atonement."
