A Reasonable Planet

Earth is not a reasonable planet. The teacher at the front of the class said that recently. She knows alot. She was being intentionally delicate.

A shit show. That’s how the woman sitting next to me described it. I agree with her, but for the sake of this post I will be delicate.

We see people who have what they need and people who don’t. We probably think, “That’s just how it is. It is the nature of reality. Some people have what they need and some people don’t.” That’s how I used to think about it.

Here’s how I think about it now: “If you are born on this planet you have the right to a comfortable life. Period. No matter who you are, if you were born here, this planet is, de facto, your home. You have a right to be at home & comfortable in/on your home. Full stop.”

Until every human on this planet enjoys a comfortable physical life as a matter of fact, Earth will remain an unreasonable place. It is a matter of principle and principles are complete unto themselves, they do not have or require exceptions.

Therefore when that principle is accepted and activated, every human WILL have a comfortable life here on Earth and Earth will start to become a reasonable planet.

This may seem impossible, but that is what we were taught to believe, just like we were taught to believe that it is acceptable and reasonable that some people live in horrendous physical circumstances. When it is time, in our case it is a matter of timing, when it is time for this principle to be accepted and implemented, the changes and upgrades will be rapid.

How joyous will it be when that starts?

Life is But A Dream

You are It.

My teacher Patrick O’Hara used to say that. It probably means a hundred different things to a hundred different people. I guess most would hear it in an egoic sense, like you are the “It” gal or guy or you are “the bomb,” better than all the rest.

That is not what Patrick meant. Patrick meant you are the hub of your reality. You are the creator. If you see a problem, you are the solution. If you don’t like the dream you’re experiencing, reprogram it. You are the dreamer, it is your dream.
You are also beyond the dream. You are that. You are beyond any dream and any sense of ego “I, me or mine.”

Once you start to really get that, it shakes the apparent solidity of your life. It’s not always fun. In fact, it’s often not fun. But here lies the rub: once you’re on to it, you can’t turn back. Once you get a taste of this knowledge you can’t untaste it. It is the beginning of waking up, but that can take time.
During that time you’ve got of a kind of unjelled reality: you are still immersed in the dream, but you know it’s just a dream, but you’re wanting it to be solid or real whatever it seemed to be in the past or ….the absolute freedom you know lives beyond dream, but you’re not there either. It can really take the fun out of things.

I find myself sentimental alot lately. I realize I am remembering, savoring, crying over, longing for, essentially, storylines. I know. It’s a lot to take in if you really consider it, but the point is once you’re on to the fact that this is all really a dream, you can’t unknow it and – eventually- that knowing takes you to full awakeness, the immovable Divine, which you are. That is what Patrick meant: you are It.
