Human
Multidimensionality

By Dale G. Cox
Who are we? More importantly,
what are
we? A question we probably seldom ask. Most of us take for granted that
the purpose of our reality is to live the life set before us by the
people
who came before us. Like sitting down in a restaurant and having a
plate
of food just set before you, no menu. Get an education, do what your
told,
get a job, do what your told, get married, do what your told, and die.
A real human being, by mere nature of existence, could not take this
without
question. So, human, care to see a menu?
It is inherent in our nature
to question.
That’s what differentiates humans from animals. The ability to observe
the nature of our surroundings with more than an instinctual reaction.
Hence, there must be more to us than meets the eye, something that
exists
beyond the instinct of the animal body. When was the last time you had
to think about breathing, or remember to wake up and breath while you
were
asleep? Our bodies are merely vessels within which our spirits
experience
the sensual world. Physical bodies die, decompose, and are recycled
back
into new life in the physical world. Your spirit, the part of you
separate
from the body, lives on again and again. It is here to experience the
flow
of consciousness towards self-awareness. Much the way a human infant
will
go thru the steps of touching, tasting, seeing and smelling to
understand
the world around it. In spirit, we are the children of god thinking,
feeling,
dreaming, and evolving into an understanding of our universal essence.
The body is the source of the
ego. It
is created by environment. That environment consists of the
astrological
lens created by the position of the planets in the sky at the point and
time of birth. Astrology creates what I like to call our handicap. A
way
we will behave in situations of interaction with other humans.
Astrology
is the nature of gravity having an influence on light. We are that
light.
Parents and our social environment make up the rest of the ego
environment.
Ego is the experience of the localized effect of every day life. The
things
we experience and how we perceive them. Which then dictates our actions
day to day. We seek to express creatively and discover the power to
make
a reality for ourselves, with others. A loved one hurts us emotionally,
and we go thru the process of how to respond. Which is where the higher
soul and the heart come into the picture.
The heart is central to all we
are.
The heart is connected to our higher being. Wherein reside all the
memories
of all the experiences we’ve had in relation to this physical world. We
have not always been here, and we all eventually leave to go elsewhere.
There’s no telling how long we’ve been here. Each lifetime that we
incarnate
brings with it a new set of lessons. Those lessons are derived from our
localized actions in the previous life, then coordinated with the
larger
lessons our souls are pursuing, and that lays the groundwork for the
next
life to be experienced. Your soul is the sum total of all the lifetimes
it has experienced. Thus as we evolve our lessons evolve with us.
Sometimes
we are simple folk, or maybe a world leader, or a starving child. Each
lifetime, no matter what character we play, is full of valuable
knowledge
about us as beings. Like being an actor on a stage, we get to play any
character we want. The trick is you must live the results of your
actions.
You reap what you sow. How else could you understand what you do when
you
do it. For every action there is a reaction that defines it. Thus, when
that loved one makes an action that breaks your heart, your experience
is your own, but that other person will eventually get the opportunity
to know how that felt. It doesn’t always have to come from you. Your
heart
can draw upon its experience to help you respond appropriately. Be that
with anger or forgiveness.
In light of this we begin to
see the
parameters of our multidimensionality. Your consciousness is the focal
point for a variety of influences. In your day to day expression you
are
confronted by other souls on similar journeys. Every living being on
this
planet has a soul. We hope. Every soul on this planet is involved in
evolution.
This planet is a very special school. Nothing happens here that is not
related to the curriculum called evolution. Nothing happens to you that
is not related to your personal curriculum. What may appear as an
accident
to you, could be and probably was a purposeful intervention. The nature
of consciousness is that it is self-evolving. Sometimes it will find a
hole to hide in, or try to, just so it doesn’t have to grow or change.
Consciousness can become stuck, and like a log caught in a rushing
river,
god then exerts more force on the log to dislodge it so it can move
again.
Everything in the universe is in motion. From the subatomic to the
astronomic.
So things usually happen to us to help us change our perspectives so we
can get moving again. But, our god is a merciful god. It will back off
when we’ve had too much. But we must get a grip on ourselves. God will
never give us more than we can bear. We on the other hand can be quite
sadistic, and god gives us what we ask for. We get bent out of shape
literally
and dive into deep dark tunnels of nightmare to punish us for failing
to
meet the expectations of some other ego. Fun. If god were not here we’d
become seriously lost in our own nightmare realities. That’s what’s
going
on outside of us.
Inside, our minds are these
warrens
of illusion and perfect pictures of how we think things outta be, a
kaleidoscope
of thoughts, feelings, and memory’s. We are remembering where we have
been.
We are judging ourselves according to our surroundings. We are
attracted
to people and experiences. We create affiliations with other souls and
discover the reflection of god within us. The environment of our
experience
marvels us. Until the experience causes us pain. Then fear creates a
whole
new dimension of experience for us. The landscape becomes more
involved.
We attack back, we hide, but we spend our entire lives adjusting to a
variety
of circumstances, the future of which change with every decision we
make.
Some humans try to detach themselves from this playground for the
spiritually
aware. This behavior can lead to a very lonely place. The lessons are
not
passed up, merely held up for the next life. To be repeated until the
lesson
is learned.
Our external environment does
not always
decide who we are. You have the astrological experience, the
environmental
experience, and then you have the higher soul. The being, within you,
that
has experienced lifetime after lifetime. Not knowing that character, we
can’t always recognize where it shines thru in our personality. But
there
are means to divine and learn to recognize that character. Personal
habits
and expressions do not always come from our parents. Notice those
individual
traits about yourself that are different. They are you. Not only is the
heart connected to this core of knowledge, but it also stimulates your
intuition. The little voice in your head that warns you a few seconds
before
something happens. Usually, before we can react to the voice, we are
engaged
in the moment and forget. There are many tools available to teach you
the
parameters of your intuition, and how to use it in your everyday life.
Many of these tools, including the information I’m giving you now, fall
under the category of taboo. For centuries certain individuals have
worked
diligently to steer us away from this information. So they could then
use
it against us. Some of those individuals were us, in different
lifetimes.
There is a time for all things, now is the time for us to awake from
our
long slumber.
We are nearing a point in our
evolution
where we need to look up from our work and pat ourselves on the back
for
what we have accomplished. We always need to do this. Sometimes it can
seem like our lives are moving too fast. We never have the time to keep
up with everything. Sometimes it seems we hardly move at all. Our life
is a featureless cycle of repetition. We’re not even sure we have
changed
at all. If you will observe, your life gets moving faster when you
begin
to interact with other people. When you isolate yourself, things slow
back
down. Reflection time. Time for you to remember what you have been thru
recently, and question what it was all about. There is also a group
energy
we respond too. As humanity we are all connected via the energy of god
that is us. A body of people in close proximity, like in a city or
town,
will generate a field or perspective, more subtle than the other
influences
in your life, but there just the same. If its Friday, everyone’s in a
hurry,
if its Monday, no one has any motivation. Go to a sports event, if the
home team is winning everyone there is charged, losing and everyone is
bummed. We are constantly swimming in a sea of experience. Life is a
valuable
experience we should not waste. Learning your lessons in this life is
the
key to achieving the highest joy you can in this reality. Sometimes it
may seem your going in the wrong direction, but every direction is the
right direction. We’re only here to learn to trust our hearts. That is
the compass that will guide us beyond this physical realm. We must
always
remember to open our hearts. So much of our experience works to close
them.
When we learn to go with our heart, we are going in the right
direction.
It is our biggest challenge. Of course, stubbornness can stand in the
way
of this, I know. But that’s a choice. The power of choice is our most
imminent
power as beings. Life is a matter of choices, feel free to make a few.
Choose to open your heart and you will understand the core of the
lesson
we are here to learn. Waiter.
