Good day/night.....hope this post finds all well who read this.....

I am Tripping right now as I write this, wait did that sound right?

Will try to keep this concept I have here simple as it seems simplicity is often the best way.

So the title of this thread is a line taken from the beginning of an old Black Sabbath song I was just listening to. So I doubt everyone here is an Ozzy fan but keep in mind its the words here that count...

"I am the world that hides the universal secret of all time."

obviously this could be interpreted to mean this or that or whatever you like but here is what it means to me:

The reason why it not everyone "sees God" is not just because god is somehow missing or absent in a non existent way.. IMO

I strongly believe It is because "God" is actively hiding from us and chooses to reveal to each individual observer "the hidden world of the creator" only when he (the creator) decides that the observer has played the game of observation and therefore also the game of existence appropriately.

So I believe that God holds back this incredible world from those who do not appropriately appreciate creation.

Here is an example...
hypothetical....situation
You have an angry day and your mad all day long for no good reason really.

During that day can you imagine all the opportunities and beauty that passed you by while you were consumed with being angry all day????

Those opportunities concealed themselves from you as if though they had never existed at all.

The same thing happens when we become too wrapped up in our habitual non stop thought and self reflections, our expectations, our fears, our doubts........

How can we be the least bit aware of not only our own awareness but the world around us as well if we are so busy thinking all the time...how can one live? how can one absorb the beauty of life all around us on this planet...?

How can one even begin to fathom the incomprehensible mysteries and pure potential of human awareness when they are too busy thinking nonstop?

Why would "God" or the creator come out of hiding and reveal himself to a human that is so wrapped up in a habitual thought process. The creator would not bother revealing his/herself and the hidden celestial treasuries of infinite wisdom to someone that could not even pay attention properly to begin with because they can't stop thinking for more than 2 seconds.

So I'm not trying to com of as preach of judgmental about people who don't want control their thoughts and I mean no offense to people who have no interest in whether god exists or not.

This is just my humble theory here that God is actively hiding from the whole of mankind...

The universe is like a self aware being that is smart enough to know how to conceal and reveal itself according to it's own design...

IMHO this is why God cannot currently be proven, because right now God is hiding away, concealing himself accordingly, waiting patiently like a hunter watching your every move, hoping that you will just play the game of observation correctly for one moment so he can show the glorious splendor that awaits.. the hidden world unfolds before your third eye...

Navigate your third eye like A periscope across all space, time, infinity.

see and then be everything, see all, be all know all, seeing is being

When you make it to the Godhead don't just stand there,,,,Sail, Surf, Fly, Ride the magic carpet into eternal majesties.

Many blessings

may eternal grace befall all of you.

This post resonates with me deeply, since I have been working very hard on mindfulness the past few months. It is amazing how hard I have to try to stop the habitual thought patterns from overtaking every second of my life.

I think most people are completely unaware of how chaotic their internal thought processes are, because they have never tried to just stop thinking.

I feel too much time is wasted on debating what to call the peace and beauty associated with being mindful. I don't care if people want to call this state of mind as an opening to God, the Self, pure consciousness, or something else. My only hope is that more people open up to this energy so they can heal, learn, and gain the emotional strength to help others.

I hope the rest of your trip was enjoyable, and I wish you a week long afterglow!

Peace and Happy Journeys

thanks entheogenadvocate very well said indeed

whether you think god exists or not,,, SELF MIND CONTROL ES GOOD? NO?

internal mind control helps prevent external mind control

Eliyahu, I think that's a very good idea. I'd even say that I believe the same thing some times. On the other hand, I find that such secrets can be as burdening as they are beautiful. That's a problem I need to resolve for myself, I guess. Thanks for your post. It was very inspiring.

Thank you hixidom for the comment..

I understand what you mean but by the same token and in all honesty I shudder to think of the burdens I would have to bear if I did not make use of this knowledge..

Are you referring to the burden of being a solitary traveler? or the burden of convincing others?

or another one...if you feel like elaborating please do otherwise no worries


thanks again

I would say the burden of knowing that I can't convince others, or the burden of experiencing something too incredible to be expressed in words.

I always liked Tek's quote:

Yeah, these moments, these windows of opportunity are there for sure... We get into a life situation which brings a certain kind of emotional discomfort... In the past, we've always "successfully" handled this specific type of challenge with the same kind of pre-wired robotic answer... But this time, we somehow manage to stop the wave-collapsing machinery right before the decision spot... Listening still, we deepen into the moment which becomes a gateway to a higher dimension... We understand that nothing is mundane, that the microcosm is the macrocosm... We get a glimpse of our life from a timeless perspective and can identify the past instances of the same pattern, repeating itself, curling up into this present moment in a fractal-like fashion... and then realizing that it's not us... it's something else that wants to wake up, something much bigger, through us, using us... and this process is inevitable.

I like the way you think, Elijah.
I may not entirely agree with your viewpoints, but it seems your heart is in the right place. Enjoy

Cheers.

Thanks for your comments, I really appreciate the feedback.

Nicely said Eliyahu...

What you describe is the 'Essence' of Spirituality.
Awakening is the realization of this 'truth'.

J Krishnamurti and Eckhart Tolle, even Buddha speak of the same thing, maybe just in different wordings...

'Waking up' really changes things...

Pease out...
