The game of life

All for one, One for all!

What a beautiful thought from Seth!  We've been so indoctrinated that life is a competition that we've lost sight of the fact that life is really a grand, cooperative, joyful adventure!  If it were anything else, life would be extinct and the planet would be barren.

This value fulfillment and cooperation extends from the largest Cosmic body to the tiniest subatomic particle.  The reason that quantum mechanics can only predict probabilities and bulk properties of matter is that each component of matter is conscious, in its own way, and having a fulfilling experience to the net benefit of itself, it's buddies, and the world at large.

If you doubt that everything is conscious then it's worth recalling an incident described by Lynn McTaggert and also by Dean Radin where a remote viewer successfully slowed down an atomic clock positioned deep underground at Stanford University.  It amazes me how, something as fundamental as this, is ignored by modern science!  Apparently the Caesium atoms in that clock thought it would be more fulfilling to play the game and respond to the remote viewer!

“In physical reality, if you will forgive me, life is the name of the game – and the game is based upon value fulfillment.  That means simply that each form of life seeks toward the fulfillment and unfolding of all of the capacities that it senses within its living framework, knowing that in that individual fulfillment each other species of life is also benefited.”

Rita on conflicting guidance, consistency and interpretation

Conflicting guidance

From DeMarco, Frank. Rita's World Vol 2: A View from the Non-Physical (Kindle Location 1634). Rainbow Ridge Books. Kindle Edition

(Q) [Charles said, "I'm confused about guidance.  Because a new soul is comprised of differing traits, might there be several options given and is that why we sit with it until it 'feels right'?  Or, is it always consistent?  And if it is always consistent, on what is it based?"]

(A)  This really is an excellent, productive question that will help us move the discussion along, and so will help many who have not thought of it, and perhaps never would have - which means they also never would have come to the additional clarification.

He is exactly right. That is just what does happen [that is, varying guidance for different strands], and all of your lives should furnish you examples of the process, to greater or lesser extent depending on your internal makeup.

What may seem disconcerting is the idea that there may be no objectively correct Guidance, no official-seal-of-approval gold-standard automatic right answer.  What?  Are we fallible "over here"?  Can we make mistakes?  Jon Holt is closer here than you know, but not exactly in the way he pictures it.

There is no one single Guidance, any more than there is one single version of reality, or, for that matter, one single constituting individual.  Some thought in the new context [that she has been putting forth here since December, 2014] will show you that there can't be.

(Q)  Well, nudge us along a little.

(A)  It is as Charles intuits, a different associated non-3D source of information bias for each strand, and if you are living a community of mutually antagonistic strands, how else can it be than that your internal gods are warring?  But even if your various strands are more or less harmonious and cooperative, there is going to be variance among them, perhaps trivial in some circumstances and serious - maybe deadly serious - in others.

That's enough for the moment.  As people sit with it and hopefully remember it and apply it in their "real" lives, it will sink in deeper, and they will become ready for more that will tie in to other things.

(Q)  I get, "other things", some or much of which hasn't been said yet.

(A)  True, but only meant as a general statement.  I'm not keeping secrets or holding out on you. I'm saying that new information always has the potential to shed new light on older information.  You can't get around it, everything connects.

Consistency and interpretation

From DeMarco, Frank. Rita's World Vol 2: A View from the Non-Physical (Kindle Location 1679). Rainbow Ridge Books. Kindle Edition".

(Q) [The terms "threads, strings, ropes, cables, and combinations of the concepts" as well as "traits, and past lives" have all been used to describe the non-3D continuing entity.  Would you please define these so they can be used consistently?]

Emerson once said his page on consistency would have been better written, "damn consistency". But I don't imagine that's quite your response.

(A)  Not quite, but I sympathize.  It is a quality very much two-edged.  It allows for the possibility of precision, but it therefore tempts people to cut life into little boxes rather than recognizing flow and nuance. In this case, though, the lack of consistency flows from your efforts to get a handle on new concepts and their slippery qualities.

(Q)  Just as when I tried to understand what I was feeling, vaguely, about crystallization.

(A)  That's why, or one reason why, I chose this question to go with our earlier discussion today.  Similar situations.  Remember, contact is as much for the development of the participating individual as for the inherent value of the information.

(Q)  I take it you include the reader, as well as the diviner.

(A)  Of course.

(Q)  So, as I remember it, I was trying to express my sense of various gradations of intensity.

(A)  Let me tell it.  Yes, that, but as I observe that moment now - from your point of view as well as mine, you know; that increase in vantage points is not confined to what people are calling "past life reviews" - you were also trying to make sense of it, and were drawing logical conclusions and mixing them with your perceptions.  That's one natural pitfall in the process, because how different is that from interpreting?

On the one hand, the perceiver must interpret what is perceived, much more so than is commonly recognized, or what is perceived will not make much sense in 3D terms.  Bob [Monroe] said it well in Far Journeys.  But it is a short step to move from interpretation to logical deduction, and that is a step that is taken frequently.  Fortunately, it is not an irredeemable step. But it is something to be wary of, a naturally occurring hazard of this kind of navigation.

(Q)  And I can see that I would be resistant to people questioning such deduction, too, just because it is such a small and easily unnoticed step.

(A)  Precisely.  Beware Psychic's Disease, yet don't demand an impossible certainty either.  That's the balance to be struck.

Now, I wanted this to be short and we haven't even gotten to the question yet.  I don't want to slur over the distinctions but I don't want to go into it either.  Perhaps the safest step for the moment is to say, disregard all analogies and, for the moment, re-read such passages as indicating varying strengths and complications of continuity among and within the community that seems to you to be an individual.  There is much more, but that's all you are going to get today.

We choose our genetic structure

“Your genetic structure reacts to each thought that you have, to the state of your emotions, to your psychological climate. In your terms, it contains the physical history of the species in context with the probable future capabilities of the species.  You choose your genetic structure so that it suits the challenges and capabilities of the species.  You choose your genetic structure so that it suits the challenges and potentials that you have chosen.  It represents your physical reference point, your bodily framework. It is your personal physical property. It is a portion of physical matter that you have identified, filled out with your own identity.  It is like a splendid ship, the body, that you have chosen ahead of time for a splendid challenging adventure – a ship that you have personally appointed that is equipped to serve as much as possible as a physical manifestation of your personhood.”

Rita: Enjoying 3D (continued)

(Q)  So, Rita, I am fascinated to see you making sense of things I started to get more than a dozen years ago, but couldn't bring through coherently.  I spoke of crystallizing but could never make it clear and plain because I couldn't understand it clear and plain.  But yesterday did it almost offhandedly, by saying that people either can or can't hold it together when the bonds of the body are gone; and, if they can't, it is not the constituent parts but the organizing principle of that soul, the personality that had expressed in 3D, that goes away.  You didn't say it in so many words, but that was the unspoken essence of it.

(A)  Another example of "the better the question, the better the answer".  And merely by us seeing the question straight, a lot of perplexities fell away, did they not?

(Q)  They certainly did!  At least, for me.  Maybe others would need to go through our sessions to see how hard we struggled with the question of what happens to the soul that doesn't crystallize, with the guys assuring us that nothing is lost, but unable to show us why not.

(A)  And you see that your assumption that the answer to Suzanne's question would involve left-over associations was wrong.  I think probably I'm just making you up.

(Q) It's interesting. In life I rarely say, "very funny", but it feels like I'm always saying it here.

(A)  Here, as opposed to life?

(Q)  Yeah, I heard that too.  I don't know where that came from.

Cells Act

“The cells [with their] genetic packages, like all cells, react to stimuli.  They act. They are aware of all of the body’s events biologically.  In ways impossible to verbalize, they are also aware of the environment of the body as it is perceived at biological levels.  I have said before that in one way or another each living cell is united with each other living cell through a system of inner communication. “Programmed” genetic activity can be altered by conditions in the environment.

“I am not simply saying that genetic activity can be changed, for example, through something like a nuclear accident, but that highly beneficial alterations can also take place in genetic behavior, as in your terms the genetic structure not only prepares the species for any contingency, but also prepares it by triggering those characteristics and abilities that are needed by the species at any given time, and also by making allowances for such future development.”

Rita: Enjoying 3D

Enjoying 3D

From DeMarco, Frank. Rita's World Vol 2: A View from the Non-Physical (Kindle Location 1527). Rainbow Ridge Books. Kindle Edition

(Q) Good morning, Miss Rita. (Do you experience morning?)  Suzanne Gilbertson left this comment on my blog, and Charles liked it enough to jump it to the top of the list.  This is one of those that I don't have any idea about how you are going to answer it.  I hope you do!  But, the guys always had what I called their cover story ready, and I can't remember you ever backing them into a corner successfully, so I suppose you can do the trick as well as they could.  And, sometime tell us about the way you-all can fade in and out in a conversation, sometimes one starting a sentence that another finishes, we not always noticing.

(A) All right, it's always good to have a shopping list.  As to morning, remember that we can experience 3D still, through any of our numerous relations and acquaintances.  And for many of us, the natural world is an enchanted and enchanting memory that we love keeping fresh.  At the same time, we are not confined to any one passing present moment in the way we were while in 3D, so there is no reason we can't enjoy a sunrise here while watching a sunset in the same place [that had occurred or would occur] earlier or later.

(Q)  This business is either stirring up distracting new habits or is teaching me to pay close attention to flitting thoughts and associations and questions.  So, as I wrote down your answer, the following things came to mind:

·     You said "relations and acquaintances", and I assume you mean past lives and the various windows into the world that all of those threads represent - but I could imagine someone asking about it, so I thought, I'd better find out.

·      I remembered that you and Martin, in your life long before I met you, had liked to go camping in the Rockies or anyway out west somewhere.  Oregon? California?  And it reminded me that those kinds of experiences are part of what we bring to the other side's library also.

·      I first encountered Hemingway fishing, if I remember rightly, and I thought, just now, hmm, two ways of enjoying the natural world.  He was re-creating the conditions and experiencing them as real. You are, I take it, enjoying it as it happens and is experienced by strands still (or previously, or - in the future?) in 3D.  And a third way would be to re-immerse yourself in the memory of what you lived, or so I suppose.  That is, what you as ringmaster of Rita Warren 1920-2008 experienced, as opposed to what you have pretty direct access to via all the connections of all the strands that comprised her.  And a fourth, I suppose - all the connections leading on from those strands.  Pretty nearly everything, I suppose.  What a treasure of opportunities for enjoyment.

That's a lot to get out of a brief response to an aside, and I feel like I'm stepping out of one role and into another, or that my own role is beginning to morph.

(A)  Well, that shouldn't surprise you.  Change brings further change, and practice not only makes perfect, it opens unsuspected doors.

(Q) And this is also for the benefit of those reading this.

(A)  Of course.  Your chosen and accepted role was - as you were told by Kelly [Neff] in the very beginning of your awakening - to remember in public the process of remembering, as well as the content.

(Q)  I remember well.  And that seems to be what is happening.

(A)  You were given a choice a while ago: Stick to what we had been given and undergo no further upheavals in your understanding of the nature of the world, or be ready to move on, and you chose to keep exploring.

(Q)  Sure, why not?  What else is remotely as interesting?  Only, it never occurred to me that you and I would be working together. Nice bonus.  So, the question.

(A)  Don't forget the final insight/question.

(Q)  Well, I have, but I can see that since everything connects, there would be no end of associations and so no end of side-trails.  We can let it go.

(A)  Now you are getting a stronger taste of how we function without 3D constraints to help us focus.  All right, the question.

(Q) [Suzanne, responding to my response to her original comment, said: "Yes, it's the 'successful' part I want to ask Rita about.  What is an unsuccessful transition, and the consequences?  How can we not carry with us 'left over associations' with 3D life?"]

(A)  This is a good illuminating question, and my answer is shaped partly by your own focus, Frank, that prevents you from actively remembering the context of the question.

(Q)  Not a bad thing, I hope.  That's usually my situation.

(A)  Well, the question of what would be "good" or "bad" directly leads into my answer.  Good or bad, successful or unsuccessful, is always a matter of judgment, which means always a matter of context.

My particular view is that a successful transition is one that allows all parts of a lived-out being to continue to function together after the bonds of the body are broken.  Or, to speak more plainly in other language, success is the new soul continuing to function as one unit in its new conditions of freedom from the 3D constraints that shaped and nurtured it.  Your physical part of your life is the baby chick in the egg, and your life afterwards is the chick learning to function in a new bewildering/enchanting world beyond the previous safe but confining world it had known.  The struggle to emerge from the egg is what develops the strength to fly in the world to come.  No chick lives as a chick and then a chicken while still remaining in the confines of the shell in which it developed.

But not all chicks survive the process and live on.  Some die, in the shell or emerging from it, and in that case their components - the physical elements of the chick's body, in our analogy - return to the earth and of course are used again in one way or another.  An unsuccessful transition fails to hold the pieces together.  It is - to change analogies - something like the mentally ill whose various constituting pieces do not communicate, or exist in a state of perpetual contention.

(Q)  So, when we do retrievals -?

(A)  It's a matter of context and viewpoint, as I said.  But from here it looks this way.  Let's take me.  I live a long life that develops many of my potentialities but of course not all, nor anything like all.  We are created with an over-plus of opportunities for the very particular purpose of allowing and developing, almost of forcing, the continuous exercise of free will.  This does two things.  It enables us to choose what we are to become, by choosing to manifest this rather than that.  It also bonds the various elements, in the way that the chick's struggle to emerge from the egg develops the muscle it will need to fly.

I live my life without suppressing my awareness of any part of myself (in practice, of course, this is an impossibility), or I suppress allawareness of any other parts of myself (which is scarcely more possible), or, as is true for nearly everybody, I become conscious of some things while remaining unconscious of others, to a varying degree.

(Q) "Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will shape your life, and you will call it fate."

(A)  Also, the apocryphal Gospel of Thomas: If you bring forth what is within you, it will save you, and if you don't, it will destroy you.

(Q) Now - did you know that independently or did you pilfer it from my own memories?

(A)  As our friend Dave used to say, "Guilty, your honor".  But I'm afraid our hour is up.

Chromosomal messages

This Seth quote makes sense in terms of Kryon's 12-layer model of DNA.  What we see physically as a DNA molecule in 3-D is only layer one.  The "information" and "communication" outside of time and space is in the other 11 layers!

It makes you wonder how well genetic manipulation by man in laboratories will really work, since they (scientists) do not understand the underlying molecular consciousness and ongoing communication among molecules and cells, DNA, etc. that occurs outside of time and space to make life possible.  Life is a cooperative venture - from the tiniest molecule all the way up to the planet Gaia and beyond - so genetic manipulation at the 3D level (while being blind to the vast supporting consciousness that makes all life possible) will only really work once man develops a deeper conscious relationships with the non-3D aspects of the 3D physical molecules he’s manipulating.

So far, it seems that the universe is sort of going along with our attempts … probably because the repercussions become obvious to us in a relatively short time (one lifespan)!

“We are speaking of chromosomal messages. These are not written within the chromosomes as words might be written upon paper, but the information and the chromosomes are a living unit.  The information is alive.  We are speaking about a kind of biological cuneiform, in which the structures, the very physical structures, of the cells contain all of the knowledge needed to form a physical body – to form themselves.  This is indeed knowledge of biological form, and biologically making its clearest living statement.”
