Unknown Reality, Session 691
A word to the wise …
Your particular society has set up such an
artificial division between intuitional and intellectual knowledge that only
the intellectually apparent is given credence.
With all of their dire faults and distortions, religions have at least
kept alive the idea of unseen, valid worlds, and given some affirmation to
concepts that are literally known by the cells.
The conscious mind has always been aware of
the cells’ comprehension. The invisible
reality within the cell is what gives it its structure. The remarkable organization of the body in
terms of its learning abilities, and adaptability, will never be understood
unless the cells’ precognitive comprehension is taken into consideration.
This (precognitive ability) steers the cell
through mazes of probabilities, while allowing it to retain knowledge of its
own greatest fulfillment – the idea of itself, which is always alive in
any given period of your time. On a different
kind of scale, then, each individual has the same sort of idealized version of
the self, and so does each species. Here
I mean each species, and I am not simply referring to mankind. Obviously these are not apparent to the
physical senses, yet they are strong energy centers that to some degree do
stimulate the physical senses toward activity.
To that degree, then, there are indeed “tree gods”, gods of the forest,
and “gods of being” connected with each person.
Angels have been represented in just this
fashion.
At one time there were also species of
birds, however, with high intelligence – this before the period mentioned
earlier. They were not humanoid; not,
for example, people with wings. They were
large birds, with the capacity for dealing with concepts. They were social, could swim well and for
some time could live on the water. They
had songs of great beauty, and a most extensive vocabulary. They had talons. When he was a cave dweller, man saw these birds
often, particularly in cliffs by water.
Many times the birds saved children from falling. Man identified with their easy flight up the
cliffsides, and followed the sounds of their songs to safe clearings. These memories turned into the angel
images. In each case in those times
there was the greatest cooperation, on a global scale, between species. The inner impetus toward development,
however, came from the innate comprehension of future probabilities. In that picture all species alive at any time
joined. This included plants and
fauna. Those who cooperated survived, but
they did not think in terms of the survival of their own species alone – but,
in time terms, of a greater living picture, or world inviolate, in which all
survived.
There are various orders of existence even
within your system itself. You merely
focus upon the one to which you are oriented. There are, then, “spirits” of all
natural things – but unfortunately, even when you consider such possibilities
you project your own religious ideas of good and evil upon them. You may simply dismiss such concepts as
silly, for they seem intellectually scandalous to many. If you do entertain such ideas yourself, you
must often personify such spirits, projecting upon them your own ideas of
personhood. Instead, you should think of
them as different kinds or orders of species that are connected with all
natural living things.
They certainly have a reality in energy,
and they aid in the conversion of energy into physical terms. They are active rather than passive,
then. You see about you physical forces
and think nothing of them. For example:
You feel the wind and its effects, but you cannot see it. The wind itself is invisible. So these other forces are also
invisible. In basic terms they are no
more good or evil than the wind is. I
say this because you usually imagine that if something is good, there must be a
countering force that is evil. Such is
not the case. In greater terms these
forces are good. They are
protective. They nourish every living
thing. They have been the impetus for
what you think of as evolution. They
are biological in that they are to some extent composed of mass cellular
knowledge – basically free of time, but directing physical activity in
time, and thereby maintaining physical equilibrium.
There is great cooperation, again, between
such forces. In such a way one tree in a
forest knows of the entire environment and its relationship in it. Its treeness can merge with soilness,
for example.
Because you are people, you personify what
you perceive – “peopleize” it. You imagine
such “spirits” to be small people, endowed with your own kind of characteristics. Instead there are simply species of
consciousness, entirely different from your own, not usually perceived
physically under most conditions. They
are indeed connected with flora and fauna, but also with the animals and
yourselves, and they are the “earth gods” that Ruburt imagined as a young
person.
You each have your own earth god. The term may not be the best, but it is meant
to express that portion of you that is as yet unexpressed in your terms – the idealized
earth version of yourself, which you are becoming. The idealized earth version is not meant to
mean a perfect self in flesh at all; instead, it represents a psychic reality
in which your own abilities fulfill themselves in relationship with your
earthly environment to the fullest extent possible, within the time and place
you have already chosen.
That earth-god portion of yourself attempts
to direct you through probabilities.
Again, on deep biological levels beneath normal consciousness, and on
psychic levels above normal consciousness, you are aware of the integrity of
your being – but also of your great connection, while living in flesh, with the
natural environment of time and space.
The earth-god concept can be consciously used, but only to your greatest
advantage if you understand the purposes of your conscious mind and its
relationship with your biological nature.
Your conscious mind tells you where you are
in time and space, and directs your activity in a world of human action. That world has its own kind of rich
complication, that is as unknown to the animals as is much of their acute
realization unknown to you. Because you
have a conscious mind, then, other portions of your being rely upon it to give
them an adequate picture of your situation, and to give conscious orders for
action. These orders will then be
carried out. To do this, you must use
that mind as completely as possible. The
picture of reality in time and space that you give to your cells must be
accurate. They must act on a minute-to-minute,
second-to-second, microsecond-to-microsecond basis, even though their own
orientation is not familiar with your time concept.
