4D Thinking

There is a lot of controversy concerning the extent of the Human experience. This can be a matter of what we are capable of perceiving, or it could be a matter of social politics. In most cases it does come down to what any one individual is subjected to by virtue of their environment or by virtue of their physical capacity.
However, it's not often that people will discuss their experiences that can't be explained by conventional Science.
I'm speaking about that which isn't limited to the physical plane of existence.

The people who believe that there is more than just a metaphysical realm of existence, that it is intrinsically linked to the physical and is even the home of entities that have an important role in historical truths, they are usually referred to as 'Dualists'. However, the term can be confusing, so let's define it based on the myriad of acceptable terms first:

• an adherent of dualism

• Dualism denotes a state of two parts. The word's origin is the Latin duo, "two". The term 'dualism' was originally coined to denote co-eternal binary opposition, a meaning that is preserved in metaphysical and philosophical duality discourse but has been diluted in general or common usages.

There are a whole lot more entries that we can get into, but most of the others are just explanations of the same thing done by different people. For the interest of what I'm getting at, I included the definitions that are pertinent to my point. Especially the one that is highlighted in red.
The reason why the highlighted definition is of the highest priority is because many people are adverse to the idea that there is another force to nature that is not of the same operating principles of physics let alone testable through the Scientific method. It is by virtue of the inability to find a consistent set of parallels to test the 'supernatural' that most people discount it as real or even possible.

I do not discount the deductions of anyone who is against the idea that a Spiritual plane of existence lays parallel to the physical. What I do discount is that the lack of evidence is somehow evidence of a lack of existence. To me, that's an intentional projection of denial that there are many people who have claimed to crossed the veil that separates the two planes, people who's lives were profoundly changed by the experience. I am not talking about people who claim there is an Astral plane, therefore the change in their life is a matter of worldviews. I am talking about people who once were abhorrently opposed to the idea of any other plane of existence, supernatural entities included, then were somehow changed into dedicated believers.

I am a believer of multidimensional physical existence. Or rather.. A multiverse.
I do not believe in the theory that there are multiple Universes outside of our Universe that are all contained and possibly explained like bubbles floating around an even greater expanse. I believe in the idea of the 5th dimension and the multiverse existing as a matter of split choices, ours being the 'static' and prime Universe that is central, the original if you must.
To me, it further proves the infinite power, wisdom, understanding, and sovereignty of divinity; it does nothing to harm my faith of a Triune God, it only serves to make sense of the limitlessness of the concept of whatever can be infinite.
Despite this, I do not consider the multiverse to be relevant to my Dualist ideology. No, in fact I look at the supernatural and the Spiritual plane of existence as something else entirely. Which is where my point comes to it's head.

Often we humans disregard the idea that we exist in more dimensions than just 3. We are quick to look at our physical essence as the 'explanation' of our existence instead of just the vehicle for perception of the physical as well as functioning within the limits of physics. It's this kind of thinking that limits humanity as a whole from understanding the deeper facets of the capacity of the physical mind let alone what can't be explained with conventional science.
Even if you can't accept the idea that there is a spiritual plane, you can't discount the occurrence of events that happen in an individual's life that seem to be purely psychosomatic. Especially when they are afflicted with some life-threatening disease and are able to overcome it with only the power of their thinking, whereas all other physical treatment fails. You can't discredit the individuals who have out-of-body experiences near death and tell of a world that is consistent with others who have experienced the same thing. For certain, it is absolute folly to try to discredit the awesome power of a psychic that is accountable to their own method and proves to not be a fraud.
This may not be proof of the spiritual plane, but there doesn't seem to be any other way to accurately ascertain a definition through conventional thinking. I think that is quite fitting, since conventional thinking was composed by the physical plane. Just like conventional physics can't explain Quantum Phenomenon, even though the two don't conflict.

Awaken to possibilities, 3D thinking is dying. The Modernist lost to Post Modernism, and now the Post Modernist is losing to the Enlightened Spiritualists.
Truth is not subjective, Science is not king of reliability, and being against Dualism is showing to have a detrimental effect on the individual and society.
I'm interested to see if the tide changes in my lifetime, because it would seem that 5th Dimensional Acensionists think the powers of darkness want us to remain as Post Modernists to further the agenda of material bondage.

Cultivate your Talent

Society teaches us to cultivate our Career. It teaches that there is a certain procedure to accomplish this cultivation, such as going to school and pursuing job opportunities that are pertinent to your career choice. The schools we get into teach us the skill sets relevant to the career and the diplomas/certificate/credits we receive are pertinent to that specific skill set that employers look at to determine your qualification.

Well this may sound odd, since it's unconducive to what we're taught by society, but stop cultivating your career. 

I know what you are thinking, "That doesn't make any sense.. I suppose I should think things will just happen by themselves?" Well that's not what I'm saying at all. I am not saying that the career path you choose is irrelevant or somehow a mistake. In fact, I'm not saying anything related to what I think any individual should do for their career; including not pursuing one.
What I am saying is that we spend too much time putting our energy and our focus into that 'ideal' career, as if it is any guarantee we will enjoy that career. Anyone who has gone through college can speak for many when it comes down to the uncertainty of what you'll want to do by the time you're done schooling for what you were so sure you wanted to be when you started. That's not even speaking for those who have gone through the many years of their career path and have questioned if their heart is truly in the career like they were so sure it would be in the past.

This is not to say that many people don't pick a career that is truly suitable through the years. I think those people are a great example of choosing wisely as much as enduring the hardships to get to where they want to be, by basis of their deep enjoyment as opposed to the superficial aspect of what society says is success.
As true success is someone who enjoys what they do regardless of the profit of their work.

What I think people should spend their time doing, throughout their entire life, is cultivating their talent.
It may be true that what we are talented at doesn't reflect what we enjoy to do.. However, if you're going to put your life into employment, it may as well be what you are good at; doing what you like on your free time so you are not hindered by the demands of an employer. That is why many musicians refuse to make a career out of what they like to do yet use their talent (which may be their expertise in the analytically side of music) to teach students, help the logistics of bands or companies, etc...
The fact of the matter is that talent goes two ways in this jungle of a world. You can use your talent to help you succeed financially, but you can also use your talent to succeed in finding fulfillment throughout your life in what others may consider just a 'hobby'.

I consider myself an artist. I like many forms of media, but my true passion is visual arts; primarily that of graphic design with graphite, doing comic illustrations.
I have merged my writing talent with my intuitive story-telling talent, combining these two elements into my visual prowess within my imagination 'machine' and cultivating these talents through my hands by transmission of the medium of paper and graphite. This may seem like a convoluted statement, but what I'm saying is the literal process of what I've learned to do over the past 13 years. As what started as an over-active imagination, meaning I could never get my head out of the clouds regardless of being in a situation that required it or just sleeping, turned into an endeavor of epic proportions.
I have no way to express the passion within except for to show it through the fruits of my labor. I have retained many pieces of art, poems, random writing, and ultimately a story I've developed over the years. Granted, I have something I intend to turn into a masterpiece as much as small tid-bits of my imagination that I've put to some form that others may see, but nothing compares to what my memory is still holding onto that is like a quilt of ideas that forms one blanketing concept.

What is the point of me bringing all that stuff up?
I am trying to show the difference between cultivating talent vs. cultivating a career.
If it still isn't making sense, let me reiterate.

Had I spent all those years trying to cultivate a career, even if it was by virtue of my talent, I wouldn't have this story that I have made that has transformed my thinking about my talents. I would probably only find the virtue of using my talent in how much I get paid, or if I get paid at all. Ironically, I don't want to get paid for my artwork that is personal to me; the masterpiece of my imagination.
I don't mind getting paid for my creativity, but when I do get paid for it I do not want to be recognized for the creativity or the quality of it. That doesn't mean I evade criticism, it just means that I don't put my name to it and I don't care if others copy it to the letter. My masterpiece is on the opposite side of the spectrum, I guard it carefully and I would be beyond offended if the characters, plot, or world that I've created were copied and used for any reason... ESPECIALLY PROFIT.

So here is where my point ties up..
If you are going to seek a career, based on financial security, then spend your time cultivating your talent so that you will better understand what your personal limit is. By limit, I don't mean the extent of your talent or the capacity of your skill at any given time. What I mean by limit is what you will tolerate on an emotional level. You may be good at something and have no desire to get paid for it, conversely you may have great talent at what you want to get paid for. That is only the beginning. To each you must focus on cultivating the talent, your career will become evident as you also find what you can tolerate to be paid for; which means what you will be subjected to concerning hardships like failure and being treated like an invisible producer of elements.. Much like robots in a factory line don't get credit for building a product, but the company receives all the credit for their intent to design the great product.

This may be hard to wrap your head around, but if you look at it from the simple statement I'm about to make then you will find that why you go in the direction you choose is completely based on how you feel in a very raw sense.

Cultivate your Talent. Don't Cultivate your Career. Your Career will automatically be Cultivated by your Talent.

We'll Fly So High! We'll Fly Right Up to the Stars!

I was never big on the idea of meditation in any sense of the word. And yet there is the word of God, speaking about meditating on his word. The irony to me is that I wasn't against the idea of meditation ever, yet now I see there was a huge stumbling block in front of me because of the terrifying gift of intuition I have.
Let's just say I've been in denial of what I've always felt since I was barely six years old; because it was a terrifying feeling that I thought was based on a nightmare I've had occur since that age.
To think... I was able to induce that feeling upon myself without fearing it for the first time in my life, I felt so accomplished in something so trivial that I had to question the nature of why I've tried to sedate my mind whenever my empathic senses go wild.

I've always viewed myself as meek; regardless of physical stature, mental aptitude, or spiritual virtue. It has always been less of an esteem issue, because I didn't feel I was short handing myself of what I'm capable of. Yet that's exactly what it always was..

So recently I've been doing a whole lot more writing and a whole lot more diving into my areas of interest like Quantum theory and Visual Art design. I'm getting into things I never considered myself savvy at or interested in. I'm finding that my renewed sense of interest in things completely unrelated has something to do with how much exercise I'm giving my brain and my Spirit.
Moreover, I am absolutely surprised that I can enter a meditative state, as they call it scientifically it is the Alpha state, and retain an energy level that isn't about how fast/hard my heart beats. Then when I get active, it's like I unleash a torrent of energy that is uncanny, even though I'm known to have a plethora of physical energy hidden away somewhere in this modest sized body of mine.

Ok, so this brings me to the aspect in which most people I have met in my life are rather optimistic about being mediocre. I find nothing wrong with that. It's those people who insist that being realistic about our limitations is the gateway to understanding our potential.. They are somewhat similar to the people who insist the same thing in a pessimistic way.....
I would say they are low on ambition, but it is something else entirely. I think they are under attack from a source they wont admit is real. Like another dimension; which is fine, it's hard to stomach an idea that can't be proven. Any true skeptic or scholar would demand a definition or at least some principle they can test themselves personally. However, what I am finding very odd to adjust to is the steady amount of people who have encountered me frequently enough to know hat I am already outside the box of conventionalism, yet I don't give off the energy of insanity. I suppose the harshness of it is that I'm not some renowned genius like Einstein  Tesla, or Newton.. Even though all of them thought outside of the box and weren't taken seriously until their ideas were proven scientifically.
It will forever be ironic to me that so many people try to tell me to reach for the stars, but when I do they can't look past the mound of their groundhog hole to see that they disregard everything I'm being enlightened to in my pursuit.

I am not trying to say that we must pretend we don't have limitations or that there are circumstances that keep us from achieving the dreams we have. What I'm saying is that I don't see any point in limiting ourselves by being realistic unless it is to keep us from doing something life-threatening. The same goes for if we will hurt other people... That is being as realistic as necessary, which even still.. Risks must be taken to achieve personal greatness. I just don't subscribe to the idea that a few eggs must be broken to get that omelette; because I don't sacrifice other people for my namesake.
However, when I'm flying high.. I'm going as high as I can. I don't care if it's just an emotional high. It's because of my mental state that I can bring about change to my state of being, which then translates to my way of life, which pours out unto my surroundings. Thus I make the environment a product of my positivity and strength instead of letting myself be a product of my environment.
It's taken me all these years to realize this. This is just the beginning.

It's No Problem.. It's What I do!

It's not too much to ask.
Everyone needs help with something.
At one point, or another, the need for help seems like a burden.

Though there are some people who think in a very different way about help, I don't think a personality is predisposed to taking people for granted. Even those who seem to have no sense of responsibility.
It is rather foolish to think that the most hardened of hearts has become like stone because there is a complete lack of empathy, naturally.
The reason is simple, you can still make offense to them; so their sensitivity may be selfishly inclined, but it is still there. How you appeal to them may be the greater question in the end.

I am making a sweeping generalization of personality inclination, which is a logical fallacy. However, I have yet to be acquainted with someone who has no sense of loyalty or respect. Regardless of how selfish that sense of loyalty and respect has become. Even to the degree that you can simply escape being killed, just because of some skewed sense of 'justice' brought on by your own selfless acts.
Sometimes it's just a matter of scare tactics. Put someone on the edge and there's sure to be a reaction, but if you can be recognized for not pushing at all.. There may be a response that's unexpected.

Despite that extremely negative side of the spectrum, I am not making my point around how others react. My point revolves around my own sense of empathy or rather, why I choose to act. Which I share with many other people, who are willing to go the distance to show some compassion to the meek and broken hearted.

What frustrates me more than apathetic criminals, is self-righteous 'saints'. Everyone knows who I am talking about... The ones who make themselves out to be God's specially-sent warriors, but somehow if you don't fall into their personal criteria of acceptably 'needy', then your troubles are mocked.
I suppose my frustration is that I see no difference in my heart between helping someone who has it all and someone who has nothing at all. Though there was a time when I was younger that I felt uneasy about other kids complaining about how hard life is, wondering why they ignored my offer of friendship just to be coddled.

None-the-less, I have come far in my own compassion towards anyone suffering emotional unrest. It's more than an expectation I've laid down for myself, it has become a matter of motivation to continue living.
The tough part is discerning when to step back and let someone suffer the consequences of their actions, but offer them a hand when they start to slip or fall down altogether.
In the end.. It's more than just a moral obligation. It's a matter of understanding how I've needed the same.
