Post #229 "Why Can't We Find It?"

Why can't we find what we are searching for---what we have searched for from the beginning

of created Time?

We are not even sure just what we are looking for,

so we give it a vague definition like 'perfection' or an also vague description like

'happiness' or 'fun' and continue to search because 'It' never seems to happen.

We never seem to arrive to a place of contentment and peace.

WHY?

 

First of all, how can we find 'It' when we do not even know what we are searching for?

The 'It' is always just out of reach.

The answer, of course, is at First Cause.

First Cause determines who we are.

Who we are is determined by what we do.

What we do is determined by the Choice of Consciousness.

The Collective Consciousness as a whole chooses,

but we, each of us, as a part of Consciousness, Chooses collectively and singularly.

We choose collectively to 'fit in', to be like everyone else.

Or we choose singularity, because we cannot agree with the 'whole',

we do not agree with the Collective.

We just do not belong within the Collective Consciousness.

We are uncomfortable within the Collective and the Collective is not

comfortable with us.

We seek to emerge.

The Collective wants us 'out'.

We make the Collective uncomfortable.

 

At First cause there is Division of Consciousness over Choice.

The Choice is to accept or to reject Reality.

To accept or reject Self as Self, and Other, as the Singular Other of Reality.

'Other' means other than Self.

Self and Other in Reality are Entity.

Entity is Infiniteness.

 

It comes down to 'going it alone' meaning the Self of Consciousness

chooses It-Self.

This Self of Collective Consciousness seeks also to 'collect'

the Other of Reality into itself.

It seeks to absorb the Other through absorbing its Essence of Entity

into itself, thereby eliminating Other through absorption or transference.

Choosing Self not only rejects Reality but totally denies Reality,

consequently an existence is created outside of Reality.

In this created existence, Reality does not exist.

Now here's the rub-----in created existence, Reality does not exist,

and yet, Reality IS.

Reality IS whether it is accepted or denied.

Creation is the walled-in fortress blocking Reality from that which is created.

 

There is always some vague, distorted, primal memory, that has stored

very suppressed information that is not ever present in focus but lurks in the

darkness and around the edges, ever out of reach. but never totally out of mind,

or out of memory.

In our hiddeness, do we ever get glimpses that nag in our memory

of a denied Reality?

Do we ever get vague, non describable longings, of a Reality that makes our created

existence seem a facade, a fake, an image of the 'real' thing?

Do we ever question what we have created?

Do we ever worry that 'our creation' is destroying us and where do we go from here

when Reality no longer exists for us?

 

But what of those others, those of Consciousness that Choose and Chose to emerge

from the Collective and remain in Reality?

They are not like those of the 'created existence'.

They are of Reality and are consequently defined by Reality.

These are not Creators.

These do not act and 'do' as Creators.

These know Reality and are not confined within the Self of Consciousness

because they know Self as existing in Reality,---- Observed, Witnessed, and Validated

by the Singular Other of Reality.

They are Entity.

They are Entity because they are Singular.

They are Infinite.

They are Infinite because they have not created Death.

They are Entity, they are Infinite, because they are not Creators.

They are not Creators of their own existence in and of image and idolatry.  

 

These have not tried to absorb the Other into themselves that they may possess

the essence of Entity and Infiniteness of the Other.

These were to be freely given through acceptance of 'What Is'

rather than creating an imaged and distorted existance out of Self, of  'what Is Not'.

'What Is Not' cannot be Observed because it does not exist in Reality.

'What is Not' is Perceived in the Imagination of a dreamer and does not know Reality.

 

We seek answers to these primal questions in a reality we have created.

We imagine that we have access to a 'beyond' but our 'beyond'

cannot penetrate the walls we have built around our creation.

All of our 'beyond' and dreams are within creation for creation is all

that we know because we can only Perceive.

Observation of Reality is way 'beyond' our grasp unless we have Chosen

the Self of Reality as Observed, Witnessed, and Validated by the Other

------the Singular Other of Reality.
