Complete Connection
Maintenance, Maintenance, Maintenance. There is a lot to maintain at this point: your needs, your ideology, your experiences, your sense of connectedness and oneness. Once you have tasted this stage, you may find yourself crafting a life for yourself that will let you spend as much time here as possible. That ideal life will look very different for each of us. As you create space for further (yes, further!) development, you can begin to experiment with actively creating complete connection to yourself, your world, others, etc. Complete connection can help you to return to this stage and stay there as long as possible. In addition to actively creating complete connection, allow your naturally connected state to exist by removing whatever may be covering it up and blocking it. Actively seek complete connection, and simultaneously relax and allow that complete connection to happen.
Here is your homework…
- Connect to your complete reality
- Craft a daily routine that supports your connection to self, purpose, others, and your world
- Seek complete connection at every opportunity
- Help others!
Here is how to do it…
Connecting To Your Reality – E = mc2
Einstein was right. Energy IS matter. Literally. There is no difference. It is a fact of Physics that most of us ignore; even the Physicists. At this point, you have some experience connecting to moments as the energy or as the physical form. Now it is time to dissolve any separation between them.
Try the following…
Be here in this moment, as you have before.
Connect to the energy in this space.
Connect to the physical objects in this space.
Connect to the people.
Now connect to the energy again.
This time, as you focus on existing as the energy, think about how sparse these physical objects are.
According to Jefferson Labs, “A hydrogen atom is about 99.9999999999996% empty space.” All the other atoms are similar with small variations. And what is in that space? Nothing but the energy binding it all together. So that table or chair you are looking at is not at all solid. Can you feel the energy go right through that object? Can you see it almost start to dissolve in front of you as you focus on its energy instead of its physical existence?
Look at the room around you now. Can you focus on the energy and see it? When doing this exercise effectively, you will see a kind of hazy blur within the room. People skilled in energy work or meditation might even witness the dissolution of objects and people. But for most of us, it is a feeling that things are about to break apart and dissolve into the energy.
It can be a little intimidating and you might find yourself holding back intentionally as the human mind fears losing itself. Nothing bad will happen if you relax into this and allow the energy to dissolve the physical. You are not changing your reality, you are changing your perception of reality.
This is a similar experience to psychedelic compounds, but we have arrived here without that. If you find you could use some help reaching this state, psychedelic compounds will certainly do the trick, but are not necessary. Methods such as “Wim Hof Breathing” and focused meditation will give you an equivalent altered state.
This state of mind is an “altered consciousness” and very hard to maintain even for the most practiced person. When you feel yourself falling out of it, consciously drop back to Stage Ten, feeling yourself as both the energy and the physical manifestation.
You may find that this stage of complete oneness is a quick vacation each day, rather than a more permanent state. There is a risk of coming out of this stage and rolling right into Stage Three by feeling disappointment at losing it, or engaging in negative self talk, expectations, or attachment to the state of complete oneness. It is so blissful that it can become somewhat addictive. Instead of letting attachment send you around the cycle again, just drop back into Stage Ten, stay there for a few minutes to solidify it and go about your day in Stage Ten. That way, you can return to Stage Eleven easily enough without losing your beautiful state.
Maintaining It All
How can you stay in this beautiful place as long as possible? There is an art and a science to maintaining later stages…
First, actively and consciously design and create your ideal life and your ideal self. Be careful to understand WHY you want what you want. Create from a place of positive emotion and positive intent. Be careful what you wish for AND why you wish for it. And do it CONSISTENTLY.
Lots of people are, at any moment, sending out signals to manifest what they want. The interaction of those signals is like the ripples made by tossing several stones into a pond. If I drop a larger stone into the pond, it makes a big strong wave that affects a larger area. If I drop a small stone, it makes a smaller wave, affecting a smaller area. However, if you drop a large stone only once, and I drop one small stone after another, my smaller waves will eventually dominate your space.
The lesson is that it’s not just about sending a strong signal, it’s about sending a strong signal every day. If you take a break from sending your signal, you open the opportunity for competing signals to affect your life. You allow someone else to influence your world. Sometimes that is a good thing and sometimes that may not be healthy for you.
The solution is, at first, to define every aspect of what you want your world to be, and then send out that signal daily. (As an important warning, be sure to focus on what you DO want and not on what you do not want. Review the guidelines for manifesting for other important caveats).
Try to cover these areas…
- Spiritual
- Emotional
- Intellectual
- Physical (overall health, metabolic, strength, speed, autophagy, flexibility, etc)
- Social (types of social interactions, energy, etc)
- Financial (income, outgo, etc)
- Lifestyle
- Locations
- Opportunities
- Things
- Etc
In other words, define your self and your life, or someone else will define it for you. Think on it and feel it every day to not only bring about the changes that you want but to maintain the beautiful life that you have built.
And then what? Then the laundry and the dishes still need to be done, and the house must still be repaired. Enjoy your human existence in all of its most basic aspects as well as its more subtle complexities. Integrate these aspects into your coherent whole.
As your connections become more integrated, you will naturally move to defining and manifesting your life in more general but protective terms. For example, you might manifest a life that is protected, exciting, peaceful, joyous and forwards your purpose. Such a definition prevents negative influences, but leaves the details for the divine. Such a life is full of surprises and can be even more amazing than you could have imagined. It is all up to you!
Seeking Complete Connection
As you enjoy life in the later stages, one way to stay there significantly longer is to actively seek complete connection with yourself, with others, with this moment, your life at large, your money, your purpose, etc. As you craft a routine that helps to keep you in later stages, include activities that deepen your connections: exercise, meditation or prayer time, time to think, time to connect with your partner, and whatever else works best for you.
Remember that you still have needs, you still have an ideology (based on principles at this point) and you still have a self (all necessary to get through the day) – attend to them, evolve them, but do not ignore them and do not become attached to them.
Remember that life will take you around the circle many times but YOU are in control of how much time you spend in each stage. Use what you have learned here and refer back to this writing to…
(1) Recognize when you are cycling through the stages again,
(2) Take care of any new or leftover tasks from those earlier stages and
(3) Bring yourself back to the later stages as efficiently as possible.
With time and practice, you will find yourself spending more and more time in blissful later stages and less and less time in earlier stages. That is, you will spend more and more time feeling joy, peace, love, adventure or other positive emotions of your choosing and less and less time with the negative ones. Life becomes an increasing spiral of amazing.
This is both a process and a life long practice.
So here is to your amazing life and your complete connection.
