Forgiving The Dream

Forgiving the dream: 

because it's a quantum world, nothing's solid past my touch, and the reality of the world dances just beyond my understanding. I have no idea if this world is an illusion, maya as the ancient yogic seers and Buddhist masters called it, or if it's the dream described in A Course in Miracles. Certain aspects of science seem to agree, likening reality to a quantum soup of pure consciousness, waves of energy ready to collapse upon determination. Philosophers too have weighed in with their speculations, from Plato's Cave to David Chalmers simulation theory. Of course there are strong arguments against all this as well, being considered the hard problem of conscious itself. 

my own answer is forgiveness.

this is where I play a scientist in my own dream, a living laboratory that only seeks to understand itself as love. My life has been a great experimenter, from plant medicines that have caused reality to shift to pure imagination, to deep states of meditation where my mind grows so quiet that I am sure that only silence is the reality of the world. None of this proves anything and fortunately I'm not looking for proof - truthfully, I'm not looking for anything, no longer a seeker, and no questions left to answer. 

forgiveness offers everything I want.

and this is a quantum style of forgiveness, shifting my perspective right within the present moment, healing long ago past events, even ancient ones, and writing new scripts for a future not yet here. Life is a dream for me because every so often I am revealed as the dreamer, time collapsing into a single holy instant where only love is real, life rolling through an ecstatic wave like state, and there's a certainty to my purpose...I am here only to be truly helpful.

I am here to love.

forgiving the dream that always seems to pull me in a separate direction.

I'm here to mend the world.

awakening, 

~

I love you, Eric

Illusory World

Illusory world: 

I don't necessarily believe the metaphysics of A Course in Miracles, and after decades of study the language still doesn't always resonate with me. But the simplicity and practicality of its message, the clear directive to forgive deeply and continuously, making no distinctions as to the size of grievances - there's been no greater gift to me than this practice.

an illusory world makes sense in a certain way, fitting nicely along side the thought of maya, as well as putting the onus of awakening squarely on my very shoulders. I am an idea in the mind of God, yet asleep and dreaming of a troubled existence. There it is, a nice cosmology, that God didn't create a meaningless world, I did, collectively with others and now our responsibility is to awaken. 

I like a clear directive.

but it doesn't have to be true.

even if it is.

so for my own peace of mind, my sanity really, my role is only to forgive. I don't have to believe anything other than the immediate peace that's found through this quiet practice, making no announcements, just gently extending myself through the world, healing, surrendering,

illusory world or otherwise...

I forgive.

Peace, Eric
