Hi, I posted this thead http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?30583-Interesting-Morning last September here, and it was truly a remarkable, and unforgettable little peek behind the scenes. It was only a scant few minutes, but it was enough, like finding yourself outside of your body, to irrevocably alter the way I perceive "things".
Well starting maybe the last couple of weeks or so, this has very subtly begun to occur again. Not nearly as intense as those five minutes, but it's also hanging around. There are other reasons, but this is a major one influencing me to be ever so careful to not judge people. To have a sense of the power and immensity of the spirit behind this human space suit, renders me feeling absurd whenever I catch myself doing it.
For example, here's how the conversation in my head could be going: "Psssst, see that sloppy obese woman over there, who looks like the highlight of her life is watching Dancing With The Stars? You've lived hundreds of lifetimes with her/him, and you're seeing her now because you're both here once again, for the same reason".
"You know that 65 year old retarded guy that comes by the house once a week to collect your beer cans for recycling money? Same thing, and your roles have been reversed before too by the way. You've both been through a lot together, and have patiently waited for this one for a very long time".
Now here's the overall impression I'm getting. "There is an underlying order to things that is so deep and vast, that it would fracture your mind to see even 1% of it all at once, that is why you can only be shown in drips and drabs. Trust the process, as you'll always get exactly what you need, at exactly at the right time. Never too much, never too little, always just right".
I think our station in physical life is virtually meaningless any more, and getting more that way by the day. This is not who we are, this is just who/where we have chosen to wait, and to prepare.
People like to talk about the calvary coming to the rescue. Folks, the Hopi prophecy is spot on, We ARE the ones we've been waiting for. The calvary is here, right on schedule. It was never ever in doubt. Also, when this is all over we're all going to have a big laugh, and be slapping high fives...And yes that includes the "bad guys" as well. (LOL)

Simply Beautifully Put Fred. Wanishi
Souls have different journeys here. One incarnation you may be wealthy, one incarnation you may be poor, one incarnation you may be white, one incarnation you may be black, one incarnation you might be middle class, one incarnation you might be male, one incarnation you might be female and so on and so on. These are the soul journeys/lessons we have to experience. We cant all experience them in one sitting if you will. Im sure in my next incarnation i very well might be collecting cans. So take it easy on me if you see me in your garbage at night. : )
PS I Love You For this Thread

I had a very, very similar experience with the guy currently trying to sell his watermelons behind my store, today. I was hearing him yesterday talking on the phone, exposing his nasty disposition to whoever was on the other end of the line, but today it really struck me how this guy was struggling, so when he spoke to me today I was sure to extend to him the respect I would show any of my peers. You are turning into quite the wise old man, there, Fred. Old being relative, of course. ;)

I know full well how hard that can be PurpleLama, but then again we appreciate it when patience and consideration is also shown to us don't we? Especially when we most do not deserve it. That's pretty darn good insight for a young man such as yourself, young being relative of course.:p

Fred,'grabbing him by the collar, pulling toward me and smothering him with kisses' ah la Songs'!!!! This is exactly what I got after the experience I had on my horse when thought was transcended and free space/expansion was experienced. The realisation of this fabulous omnipresent wise intelligence that knows and guides all of the life, which is what it is. Just to step aside and allow it to express. All the crap goes, the judgements, things just work out in miraculous ways for the very best outcome. Recognising the mirroring back to us of others, especially those we judge as 'less than'.
Thank you, thank you thank you, a fabulous thread.

Lately I've been thinking that we'll be surprised at how many of those "bad guys" were actually "good guys" (there'll be a few I'm sure) ... but WE can't see it for our judgements.
I heard this once ... " ... The only way to cure an addict is to give an addict all he can take until he screams No More!! -- then he is cured." -- ever think we are addicted to the "spell of matter"?
Carmen should recognize that one ;-)

Hey DeDukshyn, I think many, if not all of us have been "The Bad Guy". It may be just as simple as how me and the cool old retarded guy who collects my beer cans have traded places. By the way, his name is Clarence.
Funny, the giving the addict more then they can stand is awefully reminicent of the Bill Hicks routine WhiteFeather posted.

The OP reminded me, when my late father was laid to rest I was astonished at how small the casket seemed. I remember thinking "He was much bigger than that."
It's true of everyone.
What I have been briefed for, not sure I want to know what might come next is: when someone turns on you and unleashes a stream of pure vitriol, particularly if it's someone you know and respect, can you love them regardless of how they treat you?

Extremely well said - and I am the guy who collects your beer cans too, but I am also the homeless guy who DeDukshyn gave $10 to to buy more beer. Not that I wanted to buy him beer - I wanted to show him that humans give without judging ... and I received that lesson. And someone gave me $20 at the store when I forgot my wallet - It was the drug dealer who happened to be making a sale while I was struggling looking for my wallet and noticed.
My main recent lesson is that everyone is me. And it is so true ... ;)

I won't say where I got that from but in the exact context I meant it - t can be found in the 6 cd "What the @#$% Do We Know?!" extended set.

That book sat on my nightstand for years DeDukshyn, eventually falling into disrepair. Small world, huh Carmen?

I love you Brother! I know the feeling well... and try this one on as another slap in the head... as has been hinted to me...
See that down and out slob wench? You were once married to her and because of your mistreating her in that life time she has yet to overcome her deep sense of self loathing.
See all your drunken uncles? They were once your children that you abused.
See the pride in your family? it was you who fathered that sin 6 generations ago.
We are the Phoenix rising from the fire my friend... I look forward to sharing a few ascended grapes with you some day!

Here I begin to fail the steps of a battle without sense
I've nearly began to understand as I've grown my way
There is no light out of all the places
There is no sign of our help
There is no time and a chance of relations
What if I choose to live?
Living in a dangerous womb
Its like falling every moment every stage
Living in my own little world
Outcoming every sequence of this dream
How did this begin and turned in such inhumanity?
I'm hoping for myself to escape the insanity, I'm open
What if I choose to live and what if I killed you, Inhumanity
There is no light out of all the places
There is no sign of our help
There is no time and a chance of relations What if I choose you
How did this begin and turned in such inhumanity?
I'm hoping for myself to escape the insanity, I'm open
What if I choose to live and what if I killed you Inhumanity

I had a wonderful experience in the grocery. Trying to decide which lane to check out from, I scanned the cashiers looking for one that seemed less likely to make a mistake. I quickly ruled out a slovenly, fat woman with unruly hair. As I made my way to another lane a man cut me off, forcing me to enter the fat ladies lane. As I approached she spoke to me in the most eloquent, beautiful voice imaginable. She was astute and intelligent, with a remakable vocabulary. Stunned, I left swearing to never judge anyone ever again. To this day, 20 years later I see people as gifts. I may falter and think "how gross" or "what a dumbass", but quickly regain my focus, and send love and acceptance to that person. I remain thankful for that experience and how it radically altered my perspective.
One of my most cherished moments was seeing the face of a homeless man after I handed him $40 and told him that God loved him, to not despair. Often it occurs to me that those two people were angels of sorts, or teachers.
Excellent thread Fred!

Thanks for sharing that experience conk, sometimes a seemingly simple event, on an average old day, can forever change the way we see things huh?
Also, I often think the same thing with homeless people, that sometimes they are there just as a periodical report card on the progress of one's humanity. Isn't there a Buddhist saying about that? At times I've been known to go well out of my way to be of some assistance if their situation looks desperate, and at times I've been known to pretend I don't see them, so I reckon the jury's out on that one.

Why NOT me? That's what I was just mulling over. This is the question: Would the world look any different today, if everyone who is somewhat awake to what's going on, had the attitude of "Why NOT me", to be the one who steps boldly forward to make a difference?
I think it's very easy to look to others who "seemingly" have the "credentials", to take that first step, and shake things up. Is it a President? A general? Alex Jones? Drake? Bill Ryan?
I look at each one of you and say: "It has to be somebody, why not YOU?"
Bottom line...We ALL have the credentials. Imagine a million "Why NOT me's" out there, waiting for their number to be called.
