- 0:25Now join Ryan and Peter for the Tracking Wisdom podcast.
- 0:32So what do I believe?
- 0:33I believe that God is the energy that is in all things and is everything that ever is, was, and will be like this, the singular energy consciousness.
- 0:47And that that consciousness existed in the realm of the absolute, where everything is known, but you can't experience.
- 0:59And so in that dimension, which is really where I think what I'm talking about, so that's more of a quantum kind of concept.
- 1:07In that dimension, there is no time, because all things that have happened and ever will happen have already are already in existence at the single same point in time.
- 1:19And we can only experience that linear linearly.
- 1:23In this third dimension, I believe that the consciousness that was itself and had all this knowledge but couldn't experience recognized that in order to experience what is, what is not, must exist.
- 1:37So the energy divided itself to create this and that and what's in between that those energies are individual and at the same time still made of the same stuff.
- 1:53So that's, you know, God is in everything, including us.
- 1:56And, you know, we're created in the image and likeness of God, to me, means that source energy that is the source of all things, and that it is that the only thing that truly exists is love.
- 2:11And its opposite is fear.
- 2:14And the reason that fear was created is not the right word, but it's the word that I think we use, so I'll continue to use it.
- 2:23But the reason fear was created was so that you could, could experience love, which is the true essence of who we are.
- 2:31And unless you can experience and know what is not the.
- 2:35The relational aspect, the relative aspect of it, then you cannot experience it.
- 2:41You can know it, but you can't experience it.
- 2:44So in an effort for that being to experience itself as who it is, created offspring, you know, and that then those offspring had sort of the same kind of revelation where we have all this knowing, but we can't
- 3:03experience it.
- 3:04And what is this?
- 3:04So we choose to lower our vibrations and become solid beings with.
- 3:11And I kind of believe that the body is kind of like the avatar and it's almost like virtual reality, right?
- 3:17So our consciousness is the one piece that is the piece are our natural being, which is then encased within this biological mechanism in order to allow us to not know so that we can actually create ourselves as that
- 3:37being.
- 3:37So we can experience all the things that aren't us.
- 3:40So that at the end of the day, so to speak, at the, at the end of the journey, you not only know all these things, but you have now been able to experience it.
- 3:50And then there, by extension, are being.
- 3:53So we, we get to we are God.
- 3:56And that sounds blasphemous, but it's, you know, we are because we are part of God, because we're part of that energy.
- 4:02We are, we are that.
- 4:04But it's not enough to just know it, we want to experience it.
- 4:06We want to be it.
- 4:07In order to be it, you have to know it and then you have to experience it, and then you may be it.
- 4:12So you can't be something you don't know and you must experience it in order to be it.
- 4:17So, so we come here and I do believe we reincarnate.
- 4:21I believe we have many lives and it's a process of evolution that we are continually defining the highest vision for ourself of being and then achieving it.
- 4:35And then as soon as we achieve it, we are looking to the next highest level.
- 4:39And as you step up through that, you eventually come to the realization and understanding of what we really are.
- 4:48I believe in the oneness of everything.
- 4:52But it is because we all come from the same energy.
- 4:56And that energy is what is everything.
- 4:59And it's only in the vibrational frequency and stuff of that energy that all these other things kind of happen.
- 5:06And I think that it makes sense to me that so energy can't be created or destroyed.
- 5:12That's something we've come to accept.
- 5:13But why is that?
- 5:14And to me it's because.
- 5:16Because there is no time.
- 5:17And because everything that ever existed and can exist has already happened, is now.
- 5:22And we can only experience now.
- 5:24Past is, that's just a memory and future is yet to come.
- 5:29But we experience in the now that all the energy that ever could be created is already created.
- 5:36Like there is no more energy to create.
- 5:38It's just transforming this energy.
- 5:40Thoughts and beliefs, they are creating the experience.
- 5:44And that the experience, all the possibilities of the experience already exist.
- 5:49And it's really just traveling through which, which paths you want to take to experience in this lifetime in order to continue your evolution to essentially nirvana, I guess.
- 6:00Right?
- 6:00I mean, that's.
- 6:02I attend church at a Christian church, and when I read the teachings of Jesus, I believe that Jesus was also in that same understanding.
- 6:15And I Think the same understanding as Buddha.
- 6:17And you know, I'm sure many others, they're trying to teach the same thing that, you know, you, you have the ability to impact this world, but we've been conditioned to, to not know that.
- 6:32And because of that unknowingness, we then cannot experience this.
- 6:37You have to know it and then you can experience it.
- 6:40And I do believe, I've experienced that.
- 6:45I believe Jesus was born and was evolved enough as a spirit so that when he became incarnate in this earth, had enough insight and knowledge in these things and was possibly or asserted as the Messiah because he existed
- 7:04within that ancient Jewish culture.
- 7:06And that's kind of what they were looking at.
- 7:08But I think he saw himself.
- 7:10And I think the more appropriate term is the Son of Man, which is sure, there's this cultural religio.
- 7:17Cultural thing of the Messiah which was expected by this group of people and that he could fulfill that, but he was fulfilling that in that being the Son of man, being the Son of humanity, to help humanity understand
- 7:34that it's about love.
- 7:37The enlightenment and salvation comes in understanding your own power.
- 7:41You see me do these things, but these things you too will do and greater.
- 7:46I'm showing you this.
- 7:48It's not.
- 7:49Look at me and look at what I can do.
- 7:51I'm showing you how you can exist in a better place.
- 7:54That's kind of the basis of where I'm at, I guess.
- 7:59Wow, that's very interesting.
- 8:03Not at all of what I expected.
- 8:05Well, I thought they had any specific expectation, but I was surprised.
- 8:10So you use the term energy to kind of represent existence, I think.
- 8:15Right.
- 8:16I mean, it starts.
- 8:17Yeah, I mean, energy is the absolute conserved essence of existence and it gets transformed and it kind of equates to love.
- 8:26Yes, love is the energy.
- 8:29Right.
- 8:30And then there's this relationship of knowledge, experience and being.
- 8:36Okay, so.
- 8:39So knowledge and experience are kind of in opposition.
- 8:43Like you can, if you know something and only know it, you can experience, you cannot experience it.
- 8:49Correct.
- 8:50And you can't experience it if you don't know it.
- 8:52So knowing comes first.
- 8:53But you can't, you can't.
- 8:55You have to until you experience, okay,.
- 8:59Creation, what I'm calling creation by division.
- 9:02So in order to, in order for the original entity to have more experience, it needed to create a creation which is essentially divide itself into distinct parts so that there was an entity and a not entity.
- 9:25So that there was basically establishing relativity.
- 9:29Then the definition of essentially love and fear as being opposing aspects of existence.
- 9:38But, but that, that fear only exists in this plane.
- 9:42Okay.
- 9:42And.
- 9:43And then the offspring or children are recursive in that they have the same experience as the original Creator, that they feel the need to create and to subdivide themselves separate from themselves so that they can have the experience
- 10:03of reconnecting,.
- 10:06Ultimately to have the experience of being God.
- 10:09So does that mean that the act.
- 10:12So.
- 10:13So the act of creating is the experience of being God, the experience of being a Creator?
- 10:20Yes, I think so.
- 10:23And then in order to do that, we need to incarnate at this level of existence by lowering our vibration, by changing the nature of our energy.
- 10:37So because we lower our vibration, we then incarnate on this plane and are able to engage in the cycle of creation and experience.
- 10:49Pretty close, right?
- 10:50Pretty much.
- 10:51I have the gist of it, but I don't feel like I really understand.
- 10:57I mean, so the first thing I wrote down was energy, because that is common parlance, right?
- 11:04In I don't know what you call it.
- 11:05I guess I would say New age culture.
- 11:08And what was interesting to me is that you then brought it around.
- 11:15I think you clarified that you mean energy in the sense of physics using energy that is neither created nor destroyed, as opposed to in this vague New age sense of energy is a thing that we can't touch.
- 11:29Oh, yeah.
- 11:30I don't know that I know much about that.
- 11:33Well, I mean, so again, in the parlance of.
- 11:36I want to say spiritual culture, people talk about energies and they do not mean energy governed by physics.
- 11:44So that's where I'm.
- 11:45That's where I'm a little unclear.
- 11:48I guess what I'm saying is.
- 11:51So the energy is governed by physics in the third dimension.
- 11:55Perfect.
- 11:56Yes.
- 11:57But it is not restricted outside of that.
- 12:02Okay.
- 12:02And the concept that it can't be created or destroyed to me is a third dimension physics rule.
- 12:09And the reason that that rule exists is because there's no way for any other energy to be created.
- 12:15Because everything that ever will be or has been created already is.
- 12:19It is in existence.
- 12:21Okay.
- 12:21You already have as much play doh.
- 12:23As you can possibly have.
- 12:25So that was the other part.
- 12:27Okay, so all energy or all creation exists.
- 12:31This is what I'm trying to wrap my head around.
- 12:33This is good for me because having the questions making me think and clarif what I.
- 12:40So I was misunderstanding or couldn't recall what you were saying about all energy or all existence already existing versus all times.
- 12:53Because then you subsequently you said that the past is past, we can only experience the present.
- 12:58Sure.
- 12:59So you're not saying that all times exist simultaneously.
- 13:03Yes, I am.
- 13:04Okay.
- 13:04You are okay.
- 13:05So all matter or creation exists, has already been created, can nothing can no longer be created.
- 13:14And similarly, all time exists simultaneously in.
- 13:21The third dimension, because time doesn't really exist except in the third dimension, because time is a function of relativity.
- 13:29Okay.
- 13:29Time only is the measurable distance between here and there, but outside of.
- 13:37So.
- 13:37So in the absolute, all time exists simultaneously.
- 13:40But in our world or in our dimension, time exists as past, present, future.
- 13:45Right.
- 13:45Okay, got it.
- 13:46That's where I was.
- 13:47Okay.
- 13:48So I was.
- 13:49I just missed the transition between the absolute and the relative or the higher dimension and the third dimension.
- 13:58In that in the absolute or in the higher dimension, all things exist simultaneously and all times exist simultaneously.
- 14:05But in the lower dimension or the relative dimension or the third dimension, we have conventional existence of past, present, future, and we can have the experience of creating things, although anything that we create already existed before we created
- 14:19it.
- 14:19Yes.
- 14:20Okay, now, are we talking about an infinite number of levels or really just a relative level and an absolute level?
- 14:30Definitely not that.
- 14:31From what I understand, even the energy that created us is still yet part of another.
- 14:39And that you can go up and down through infinite levels of.
- 14:45Well, consider going down.
- 14:47Right?
- 14:47You can subdivide something infinitely.
- 14:50Turtles all the way down.
- 14:51Huh?
- 14:51Turtles all the way down.
- 14:53Yeah.
- 14:54I mean, you can.
- 14:55You can subdivide something infinitely.
- 14:58Therefore, you know, it.
- 14:59It goes the same upwards if.
- 15:01If you were to use a direction to describe it.
- 15:04So there's.
- 15:05And we are all still part of the same oneness.
- 15:09But to me, those existences.
- 15:12So I think this is also where people get bogged down, is this is the third dimension, and that is the fourth dimension, and that's the fifth dimension.
- 15:21You know that these are existing separate as destinations.
- 15:28Right, right.
- 15:29Where it's not that this.
- 15:31The 11th dimension is here, just like the third dimension.
- 15:34Right.
- 15:35It's just.
- 15:35We're not experiencing.
- 15:36We just aren't experiencing in that.
- 15:38Okay.
- 15:39Dimension.
- 15:40Okay.
- 15:41So this is interesting.
- 15:43It resonates with me on a number of points.
- 15:49Is this so?
- 15:51But this is your own synthesis of ideas, not like taken from a.
- 15:58A writing or something like that?
- 15:59Well, I mean, a lot of it was put forth in that conversation with God and then in the way it was described, helped me to kind of understand what was being said.
- 16:11And then kind of conceptualizing that and looking at other alternate forums, like, does this concept exist independent of this thought and am I seeing evidence of that in other areas?
- 16:25And I believe I have both in, in writings, like I said, you know, I start to see that or interpret it in the writings that came out of what Jesus said and stuff I was trying to teach.
- 16:37And even with Buddha, the idea of having control over your experience and suffering, and I think that's kind of what the cross was meant to be, was even in your own destruction, having the choice to be able to
- 16:53be compassionate and loving towards those who are.
- 16:55Who are attempting to do you harm creates your.
- 16:58Your experience in that.
- 17:00So I have an idea and I.
- 17:03Well, I guess.
- 17:03I guess just saying that I'm saying this tentatively.
- 17:07Okay.
- 17:08Because it goes to how we're interacting about our.
- 17:12About our beliefs and are we arguing or are we disagreeing?
- 17:16So I'm going to attempt a disagreement.
- 17:18Jesus was on the cry.
- 17:20It was on the cross.
- 17:21Jesus was crucified, but because of his advanced nature or his enlightened condition, didn't have to suffer the way somebody else would suffer is contrary to what I know from Christianity.
- 17:33Right.
- 17:33So the whole point was that God incarnated to demonstrate his willingness to fully experience the suffering of the incarnated man.
- 17:46So that's fully legitimate.
- 17:49And I guess I would say I don't necessarily think that that was okay.
- 17:55What it was all right.
- 17:56The salvation piece.
- 17:57Yeah.
- 17:58I don't think we have that right.
- 18:01Not being saved from sin or from a vengeful God or.
- 18:05Or God that needs us to bow down.
- 18:08Like, that's not God.
- 18:09So it's interesting.
- 18:12I'm having an interesting experience because I'm kind of skizing out on, oh, well, if you're going to talk about Christ, then it means this.
- 18:20Right.
- 18:21So I'm going back to a Christian perspective and saying, oh, well, but this is what Christ means.
- 18:26So when I talk about Christ, I would say.
- 18:28I would interpret that to be, teacher,.
- 18:31I heard you say Jesus, so I don't think you use the term Christian to be fair to.
- 18:36For me to be fair to you.
- 18:38Sure.
- 18:39You weren't saying that he was the Christ, But.
- 18:40And honestly, when I say Christ, it's more so as an.
- 18:46As a name.
- 18:47Exactly.
- 18:47Become familiar with than what the actual meaning is.
- 18:54And it's not to say that I don't think that he was here to create some level of salvation.
- 19:00I don't think he was the only one that ever did that.
- 19:02And I think the salvation was from our own.
- 19:05From ourselves.
- 19:05Yes.
- 19:06Not from eventual God.
- 19:07Exactly.
