Post #109 "Overview of Intelligence in Creation"

An overview of Intelligence in Creation is just that; an overview. As wholeness can be thought of as self existing, it is not seen as a grouping of parts. Wholeness is entity. Pieces and parts are pieces and parts and do not form entity. This is the perception of Intelligence in creation now being addressed. The view is to be the wholeness of Intelligence and not a sum of its parts or exceptions to the concept.

It is difficult to see Intelligence as a fleeting shadow but that there is some rooting that we grasp for to grab hold of, to understand, and then, being who or what we are, to take control over. It seems that taking control over, is what we are all about. Is this trait a reaction to fearing our finiteness? Is this trait our feeble attempts to establish some control over our limitations? We need control to survive. The more we can control the more comfort we feel, the more relief from our fragility. If we sense that there is some Intelligence beyond us, some Intelligence that may have control over us, it is our determination to overcome this threat by taking control over whatever is out there beyond our own intelligence, beyond who we are. It is simply human nature. It is simply the way we use our intelligence. So it seems that the basic human trait is the need to control, to control what ever and whoever....control amasses control. There is no point of saturation or satisfaction.

So what does human intelligence seek to control? Firstly that unknown 'whatever'; that which goes by many names we have bestowed upon it, like God or Yahweh, or Allah, etc. From here we seek to control nature...our own creation which includes our own species...humanity. Humanity seeks to control humanity. On occasion we get a glimpse of sanity and realize that this is a sure recipe for total destruction, but these moments come far too seldom. It is always possible to hope that someone else will do this and let us continue to pursue our own special need for control. The process of division that characterizes creation begins and is underway....humanity divides into male and female. Male seeks to subject and control female. Humanity divides into race and seeks to subject and control. Humanity divides into religion and seeks to subject and control. Humanity divides into nations and seeks to subject and control. Neighbor divides from neighbor and seeks to subject and control and brother divides from brother and seeks to subject and control. Finally, it is human nature to abuse that over which it has control. Need anymore be said? What we control, we subject, what we subject, we abuse and destroy..............until there is nothing left of us. This is our created reality. This what we have chosen ourselves to be. This is the purpose we have given ourselves for existence. We prove our own non-reality. We prove our own nothingness.

Post #108 "Questions"

We just cannot get beyond an existence that is beyond our intelligence and beyond our control. Even God comes into and under our control. Scientists who accept the possibility of God suggest that they can see into the mind of God. They question God's intentions....why should God have created the universe?....was it out of boredom?..... was God, according to Thomas Aquinas, playing? And of course, from here arise the questions of an entropic universe and a pointless vacuum. After the speculation come the questions, especially the question of 'why is there something rather than nothing?'. And then our mechanical minds search for mechanical answers that demand proof. Proof of what? Proof of God? Proof of something rather than nothing? Proof of myself? Do I exist?

These questions eventually lead to purpose....does the cosmos exist because it satisfies an abstract need for goodness? A better question would be is......does goodness exist of and by itself or does goodness exist because deep down humanity realizes it is capable of destroying itself. (that which divides must come together) Here comes the rather, contrived to suit the purpose,..word, LOVE. There is much evidence to prove that this cosmic destruction is in action and seemingly unstoppable as this is the real purpose of humanity. Destruction? The purpose of all this, this creation? A better question might be, why the need to destroy? Why the need to control? Why the need for Power, in any and every shape and form. Power, of course, is behind all destruction. What is the opposite of power? Love is thought to be the opposite of power. So that when we are afraid of all the destruction we have wrought, we regear and search out what we see as love.

What about love? Is it real? Does it exist or is it only a last resort to delay our own destruction? Can we know, can we give, can we receive love? Are we even capable of knowing love? Does love exist within our created, fragile creation? And what of Reality.......does Reality, that which is outside creation, does Reality know love? As creation is the distorted and upside-down reflection of Reality...it would seem so.

Post #107 "Our Created Reality"

We just cannot seem to get beyond thinking that Reality is under our control; that existence is within the parameters of our definitions and within our mental if not physical compasses. There is, by some, the feeling that if somethings are impossible to even imagine, they are quite easily described mathematically. Our mechanically trained minds lock us into accepting rational propositions about the early universe. But mechanical thinking was also present in stories of  biblical nature. Although these stories are to be accepted on faith, they originated out of a rationality, and often politically, motivated determination, a mechanical and  rational mindset,.....contrived to initiate and set in place the control necessary to form and shape civilization, for living under control of the powerful was what civilization was and is all about. History is redolent with intricate systems and constructions that showed and show a lot of mechanical intelligence and theoretical consistency which in the end collapsed and will collapse because its all our reality, but it is our reality, our created reality which we are so locked into that if we can't compute it one way or another it just doesn't exist. We have created our own existence and cannot see or think beyond it. We are the Creator. We even dreamed up a place that we were allowing to exist outside of our world. We name it heaven. We have ideas about heaven and what is in heaven and what is out of heaven. Can't we see that heaven is our creation and within our creation? Can't we allow that there is the Reality of existence that is totally beyond our control, totally beyond our computations and research?

We can't accept as mechanical thinkers of mechanical thoughts in a mechanical world that existence is and it is beyond and outside of our demand for evidence. This existence just doesn't give a damn about our need for evidence. We are so intellectual trapped by our own limited definition of intelligence. Our intelligence is so limited by Reason that sets in place and determines our rational, mechanical world that is destroying itself.

Post #106 "Ghosts"

How would you feel about walking through a cemetery, alone, at midnight? Why the creepy feelings? What about ghosts? Is a ghost our popular perception of a ghost or could a ghost be nothing like imagined? Creation is made up of Time, Place, and Matter. Time, Place and Matter are thus image, as is creation itself because creation has beginning and ending and does not exist to Reality. Consequently, Time, place, and Matter are nebulous. We have the ability to transcend what we have created. It's all a matter of choice. If one were to transcend Time, in other words to remove Time, anything that ever happened in a particular Place would be happening all at once. Instead of history being an unfolding linear line, history would be an event. We have the ability to see beyond Time if we so choose and allow that ability to develop. If and when we see outside of created Time, we would experience the totality of history in that particular Place, including the people of the history of that location. If a 'ghost' seems to 'appear', what happens is that the very misty and fragile covering of Time is permeated and one is viewing history, the total history of that place, from beginning to end, from past to future. The ghost could be a ghost from the future. The action of the event is not on the part of the deceased, the as of yet unborn, the 'ghost'of the deceased unborn, but on the part of the viewer who has managed, for one small fraction of Time, to peer beyond the created walls of that particular dimension of creation. Charles Dickens had it right......there are the ghosts of the dead and ghosts of the deceased future. (those who have died in the future, even though in our Time they are not yet born!)

The same effect applies to the perception of Place. If Place were removed, then everything at a particular Time would be happening in one scene. Now imagine removing Time and Place, which are both nebulous. Then everything that ever happened or will happen would be happening all at once.

Matter is also nebulous and is reducible to energy. One could say then, that Matter does not exist. So if Matter does not exist it doesn't seem to matter if Time or Place exist. Now....what about that walk through a cemetery at midnight?

Post #105 "Nothing/Something or Something/Nothing?"

Is nothing in something or is something in nothing? What came first, the chicken or the egg? Nothing is not a property of something for if it were so it would be a contradiction. Something, equally, cannot be a property of nothing.....equally contradictive. Nothing, while not a property of something, is an option within something and contributes to the quality of somethingness. In other words, something could not be something without nothing. The nothing of something provides for creation. Creation comes about through choice of Intellect. Intellect is a property of something and has free exposure to nothingness, as intellect to be intellect, needs the action of choosing. Intellect needs choice to be what it is. What makes intellect choose nothing is a question we can all ponder for we all make choices. As contributing members of the collective consciousness, we have contributed to our own created reality. Consequently it is difficult for Intelligence to perceive what lies beyond its own creation. Intelligence sees what it sees and hears what it hears and feels what it feels...all of creation....all of nothingness. To perceive something of somethingness, Intelligence must choose to step aside its creation and choose for the reality of Something. That Something is the Reality hidden by nothingness.

Post #104 "What is Nothingness"

What is Nothingness? Does Nothingness exist? Get the question......"does Nothingness exist?" Is existence 'nothing'? If existence is nothing then nothing exists and nothing itself proves existence. Quote..."If God created the world, then who created God?" Another quote... "Why is there something rather than nothing?" Why is there being rather than nothing at all? This question is said to be the most fundamental of all questions. Why the persistence and obvious frustration? What do we want? It seems we want answers alright, but answers on our own terms; to fit into our systems, to fit into our logic. We can't seem to grapple with the idea that there may exist systems and logic other than what we have to work with. The answers as previously addressed in my other blogs suggests that we look for information that lies outside of our powers to reason. We are not very adept at perceiving beyond our creation, in other words....a deep sensing, like intuiting. Why can't we sense, or perceive, or intuit beyond creation? We can't sense or intuit beyond creation because we are the creator. It is what we have chosen. We have dreamt, we have desired, we have chosen, we have created. Now we question why we have done this. We look for answers within our creation for answers that are outside our creation. First we need to question what are we looking for when we create. We need to question why we are creating ourselves out of existence. Why we have raised up so many gods that we worship and nurture including ourselves? Why is Power, which is the basic goal of creation, so essential as we fight and claw our way to insure an existence we question?

Here is a simple answer to the most profound questions. Question...'What is nothing?" Answer....There is absolutely no concept of nothing without something. If there is no something there is no nothing. If there is no nothing there is no something. Now I'm sure this will not compute......but the question is not a computable question. If I can ask, if I am capable of asking; 'is there something'..... something exists. Something does not exist because of the question itself. 

Post #103 "Reality Lost"

Somewhere, sometime, somehow, beyond the stirring of the void of pre-creation, before the creation of the atoms that slammed the big bang into existence, beyond all the creation stories of myth and religion, Intelligence knew and experienced Reality. It seems however that somehow Reality is lost, at least to Intelligence. At least to Intelligence of the the human variety. How was Reality lost? How was Reality lost to human Intelligence and consequently to all human Intelligence creates? How is Reality lost to Intelligence? How is Reality lost to human Intelligence? Is Reality lost because Reality has ceased to exist? Does Reality choose? Better yet, does Reality have a need to choose? As entity, Reality probably has no need to choose. Intelligence chooses though, for choosing is the action of Intelligence. Through its choice of creating or not creating, Intelligence chooses. The consciousness of Intelligence inhabits and owns its creation. Intelligence chooses to create an existence outside of Reality. Intelligence exists in or is conscious of its own created reality, thereby obliterating for itself the reality or the consciousness of Reality. Intelligence thinks, dreams, and thereby creates. Intelligence is made up of individuality and of collectiveness, thereby choosing is effective individually and collectively. There is collective consciousness and individual
consciousness. Whatever choice Intelligence makes, consciousness of that choice occurs to the loss of consciousness of Reality.

Intelligence becomes conscious of what or where it creates. Consciousness thereby lives in its creation and looses consciousness of any other existence. Individually it is possible for Intelligence to choose not to create which allows that individual Intelligence to retain some remembrance of Reality. Total recall is not possible because, although individual choice is possible, the influence of creation or the collective consciousness itself  has strong influence and a strong pull. If this pull can be overcome, and to what extent, by Individual Intelligence, remains to be seen. Intelligence is consciousness of its own created reality to the obliteration of Reality itself. Intelligence cannot define or explain Reality because it chooses not to remember Reality. As creation passes its zenith and approaches its decline, as it will, Intelligence will, and is, becoming frustrated with its choice and churns the void of pre-creation, struggling to create a new existence or giving up and searching  for the lost Reality.

Creation is the distorted, fragmented, and up-side down memory of Reality. An crude example would be that what is light to creation is dark to Reality or what is light to Reality is dark to creation possibly explaining some of the mystery of dark matter, dark holes,  negative energy, and so on.
What is a process of division (creation) has no knowledge of entity. What has beginning and ending has no knowledge of infinity.
