Ok. Let's apply this to today, circa 2009, USA, global consciousness.

 

We have stockpiled defenses literally and figuratively since the beginning of

time... individually and collectively. We have hoarded

our riches and cast pearls before swine. We have amassed fortunes and rarely

shared an iota of our humanity. We have hidden behind words to prove our own

self-worth.

 

If we are not the very thing we seek, then who are we?

 

What are we doing?

if there is any sense of giving or sharing..

 

there is a belief that there is a possession for which

 

giving and sharing is a divesting to " others " of that possession.

 

better that even the notion of possessed and possessor..

 

is never born as a burden or boon.

 

nothing can be shared..given..kept..or owned.

 

advantage and disadvantage are diseases of false assumption.

 

accretion is an impossibility within Open Capacity.

 

there exist no givers nor takers no senders nor receivers.

 

" they " who feel offense at this truth are deceivers.

 

their first creation and victim is their " self " .

 

belief in the prime and faulty possession of a self..

 

is the first and prime imbecilic and false possession.

 

nothing is ever gained nor lost nor taken nor given.

 

sharing or giving are not a merit points.

 

both are in fact nonexistent options.

Let's not, as there is no such thing as 'global consciousness'. Consciousness

is here and now.

 

We are not 'together' Anna. We'd have to be apart in the first place, in order

to get together.

'Global consciousness' means that in modern days, because of comunication,

more then ever, persons in china, or tumbutskan, or bogota, think much

alike, hold similar values, similar morality, eat similar double burgers,

get emotional towards similar issues...etc...

There's still nothing actually 'global' happening, no matter how similar two

people are. One is still 'oneself', and this 'self' must needs be addressed, or

it will rot in unconsciousness and neglect, with this " me " pretending it doesn't

exist (the ultimate in subtle ego).

the discussion between all of us is the most clear " proof " ..

 

that separation exists.

 

whether we 'come together " or not.

 

if we were never " apart " ..

 

there would be no comments or discussions.

 

nor need to be protected from having this pointed out.

 

nor anyone to hail " peace " with or by.

 

LOL!

The words would have to be apart, sure. Words suggest 'apartness'.

 

I'm not suggesting we're together, remember. Just that we're not apart.

One has to think of separation in order for separation to be.

 

Don't think of it, and it isn't there.

There's still nothing actually 'global' happening, no matter how similar two

people are. One is still 'oneself', and this 'self' must needs be addressed,

or it will rot in unconsciousness and neglect, with this " me " pretending it

doesn't exist (the ultimate in subtle ego).

-tim-

 

Two people are similar because they share the same human world. The human

world, the human consciousness is a " colective " quantic groove.

Now... what is adressed is consciousness - the one movement that we all are.

Once this consciousness is understood/seen there is no need to fumble around

with terms like we, they, me , you. All is here.
