What are the questions you are most driven to find answers to?

These are things I consider often and deeply. I’m glad to share them, there is value in the discussion and in the shared space of beingness.

Thank you Mark for your thoughts, very much appreciated. I will try and respond the best I can, I don’t have your articulate gift with language.


Mark, you mentioned how individual conciousness is hard to now discern from the collective. On the physical level we also mirror the collective conciousness as we affect the whole by who we are.


With a larger population, it is harder than ever to just move away from world problems, social and environmental etc. wheather crated by humans or by natural means. We have shared atmosphere and oceans etc. that are not separate.


Spiritually we affect each other, physically we affect each other. Each individual can decide to try and better their self and their world. It seems to come back to the collective then, as it affects the choices available to the individual. So I see it is all connected as you mention.


I think about these things often, it is like we are at a point in time that choices need to be made by us on an individual level as well as a collective level to change our relationship with the whole.


I do see we are trying to transition with new thoughts and actions that are clearly necessary or inevitable and what I feel is that those actions taken need to be aligned with a nurturing aspect and not a destructive one. Using destructive methods to get to the end goal, I feel, will devolve our soul or spiritual being and therefore cause degeneration of society and human values.


Maybe that is where love comes in. I do mean the “Greater Love”, which I guess encompasses all types of love. And I am not sure how that will be possible, but I would like it to be.

For me, the question is, who are we, as Terran Humanity? What is our greatest destiny and how can we achieve it, together?

THOSE are beautiful questions... that they come from Mark is, for me, no surprise.

What baffles me is this...
Where does the bible and church fit into all of the aliens, targeted individuals and fighting the government? because my experiences I've gone through defy the bible. sorry...

Yep... check out the works by Jason Reza Jorjani - specifically Closer Encounters. You'll find quite a bit of helpful information in that book.

Hi Mark. My beingness is -challenged, as far as use of words to describe what I think it is. Nice to see your example of clarity and depth of thought. Cheers.

Hello!

Words so often get in the way, especially when you're trying to describe the intersection of the indescribable with the conceptual. Glad to be able to share and speak with folks about issues you don't normally get to talk about much in everyday life!

Indeed it does. In fact, it seems that it is a spiral, a tube torus in its interrelation and synthesis, the movement of energies within us individually and as interlocked, interconnected greater bodies of consciousness, sub-populations and tribes, collectives of will and intent.

Yes, I agree. My studies are holistic and I seek and engage information in many different areas of people activity to get a greater sense of the whole. We tend to see-saw quite a bit as a greater human family, something terrible will happen and then, as a result, something wonderful and positive happens. It often takes trauma and drama to create goodwill and open the space for the expression of love as we would like it to be all the time, open and giving and inclusive and nurturing. That nurturing builds bonds that last, even through the tough times and, if the trauma is deep enough, reaches the level of epigenetic expression, then it becomes an opportunity to raise consciousness for many people simultaneously.

Right now, so many social issues are up for discussion in the United States and around the world. For better and for worse, we are talking about things that have lain fallow, or have not had a full airing in the public sphere, ever. And we are hearing voices we have not heard and perspectives we are not familiar with and everybody's reactions are all right and good, because they are free expression and necessary to make the decisions required to co-create a different future for our children and our children's children. Love comes into it at every stage, if you understand love to be more than a general feeling of well being directed to individuals, groups of humanity as an abstract whole. If you see love as what it is, a fundamental motive force of creation in this world and beyond, then it becomes a driving power and expressive force girding our continuing quest for expression. Because we are One, at the higher levels, we must of necessity compromise our positions and beliefs in order to live harmonically with other humans. That doesn't necessarily mean we give up what we believe, but instead, we understand that we are in a diverse world and that diversity actually makes us stronger. There is room enough for different perspectives on this planet and all of our current travails with cancel culture and separation that we are working through at the global level are necessary and the conflicts themselves are an expression of the Greater Good as we accomplish an aim that has never in this Age been accomplished before. Whether we are at the end of Globalization as the mainstream Pundits keep saying in the news lately or not, we are definitely at an energetic inflection point and we will collectively decide, together, how we must move forward, whether it be as a single, economic and political entity or in a multi-polar world, divided into Eastern and Western blocs, we will invariably move forward.

Our children and grandchildren are paying close attention to what their Elders are doing and saying right now.

It looks like they don't want the world of our past or the world we are living in now.

And, in the end, it is what they want, not what we want, that will determine where we go and what we do. We can say and do what we want as we continue to litigate the past and try to determine the future for people who do not seem to want the same things or even inhabit the same world as we do.

But that is love, too, isn't it.

On Children
Kahlil Gibran - 1883-1931

And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, Speak to us of Children.
And he said:
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

Then smoke this... https://astediscovery.com/COVID/DEPOPULATION.htm

...and get back to me in 2026.

I thought we were talking about experiences. Nothing here has been experientially observed. It's a depopulation forecast. I fail to see how this has any bearing on anything under discussion, specifically the reality of spiritual truth.

The thread is entitled "What are the questions you are most driven to find answers to?"

Is "your version" of what you determine to be "spiritual truth" (and thus, all-encompassing reality) the only question anyone else should explore? Should I complain to mods that my thread is being derailed by a mod who wishes to impose their version of what they believe to be "spiritual truth" upon the rest of us?

Is your "spiritual truth" sanctioned by Project Avalon? I doubt it, but I have learned not to assume.

Seriously... how are others here able to explore their potential truths when an authority of the forum is imposing theirs as the only possible and all-encompassing truth? Is this what Bill wants this forum to become?

Hi Chester. Considering you started by noting the name of the thread, you have some weird-a** existential questions.

About your worry, you sound like you think he meant “the spiritual truth”, when you properly quoted his “spiritual truth”. Big difference. I think Mark is OK. SOMEbody has to talk about these parameters of life. Cheers.

Hey Chester, glad to see you are well, as the world continues to shift within and around us all.

Thank you for sharing Mark. A very inspiring post to read. The bolded part you wrote above, I can clearly see in my minds eye and have seen something similar.


I will respond after thinking some more, but first I would like to ask Chester if he is ok with continueing the interaction and responses in this kind of spontaneous manner or were you wanting shorter answers. I want to respect your intention for this thread. It is easy to start another thread branching off this one if you would prefer

My question is:

Why is the black magic starting to fail?

IMHO the black magic IS failing for some reason. But why?

The cracks are appearing very rapidly and my favorite euphunism is the "MASKS ARE COMING OFF!"

I saw Trudeau drop his mask and Zelensky and now many others, but why now and why all at once?

It is literally blowing my mind how quickly secrets which were buried for decades are being revealed.

Pooooffff!!

It's all a production, complete with actors, comedians, stage hand, roadies, you name it, it's there.

So why did the magic fail?
I saw my niece today and she said something which absolutely floored me. (This is the little, goofy red-haired kid that was rolling down a grassy hill the first time I met her and now years later...)

She said that because people were quarantined for two years, they were quiet and alone more, and made closer contact with their guiding spirits; hence now they have better discernment.

This hit me as especially profound and I wanted to share it.

Perhaps this is a silent, completely unexpected blow-back that is happening to expose the sorcerers for what they really are.

I would say speed is one reason, if not the main one. All the barriers of this illusion are speed barriers. Speed of our consciousness or frequency or whatever. That is what psychedelics do, they borrow from our plant allies giving an energy/speed boost, which breaks down the illusions real quick.

Black magic relies on a real slow dull heavy consciousness. Also, the illusion of separation is the root illusion that pretty much causes all other illusions. The internet is playing a huge role in speeding up information and our interior mental speed. Integration is key. Integration breaks the duality, black and white illusion (which is really the original sin or seeming separation). Once you reach the yellow stage in spiral dynamics (integral stage), the Us vs Them, black magic game doesn't work anymore as 1 example. The internet speed is allowing people to integrate so much information quickly, to see many angles, it exposes these pathetic simplistic views the MSM or whoever gives as obviously not the full truth and the misleading.

So, not only are individuals speeding up their consciousness, but with so many humans speeding up, that effects the collective consciousness, since we are all ultimately One (an integrated whole). That becomes a positive feedback loop of the one effecting the whole and the upgrading of the whole upgrades individuals more.

I just recently read someone who spoke with some master guide (not in this world) and asked if we are changing so much cuz of some energy coming in from the center of the galaxy or whatever, and the master said, no its because of the internet. lol

We have really only had a decent internet speed for ~21 years and you tube was born like 2005, yet still tiny. So, video sharing has only been big for 15 ish years. Smart phones also gave another boost. They came out in 2007-2008, but really only been going strong for 10 years. It takes some years to get all the functioning and people to get addicted.

I think the results of this huge impact is just blossoming. 20 years ago there was just so many older people and some younger people not diving deep into the web. Now, even my stubborn mom in her 70s finally uses a smart phone for the last 2 years ish.

Its just so easy to search around and find that things are often not what they appear to be or straight up lies. Also, people unplugged from the black magic fog are everywhere now. So, those in the fog are seeing our counter arguments often now.

[Merkaba360]

Do we really need to experience suffering, hate, etc. to know and fully appreciate the opposites, love, peace, etc. OR is that just a dangerous false belief? I think of a charged battery or something with this polarity. So, if someone wanted to have the most amazing bliss/ecstasy ever, they would plunge themselves into a long horrible hell....upon coming out of that they reach a level of bliss none of us could ever achieve thru our moderately suffering lives?

If not, then what purpose to experience something so horrible if the rewards are equal to a moderate experience? Is it about the ONE experiencing more infinite possibilities of itself? It is just what happens when we choose to get lost in the labyrinth. Which leads to some getting super lost and stuck in hells?

An astral projector once said that after many years of it, he realized to stay away from extremes. So, that would mean that both horrible hells and ecstatic intensities are unsustainable and burn yourself out. Is the ultimate high or orgasm, just a futile impermanent experience that have a cost that is overlooked in the short term. Are we just going for a nice middle way bliss that is wonderful and forever, rather than a short burst of unsustainable ecstasy/orgasm.

Mattias De Stefano says that the 7th dimension (pretty sure it was 7th) is basically like a constant orgasm. English is his second language, so maybe if pressed, he would say that is not quite right. I dont know about u guys, but I certainly can't do anything at such intensities. So, is the 7th dimension just like a soaking in an ocean of bliss where we dont do anything? lol Or, is that quite right and maybe he meant that its like how we feel internally during sex. Just constant waves of energy circling within and around us, but not releasing it like a bomb. Then one could actually do more than just freak out in ecstasy. lol

What is the most pleasurable and desirable state? Is this sort of like the quantum problem that we can't know both the speed and position simultaneously. We can only have one or the other......a wonderful peaceful feeling constantly forever, or a super amazing rocket fueled ecstasy for a short while. It seems if the energy in the universe is infinite, why couldn't it blast a high voltage of orgasmic energy constantly or at least for a very long time. I mean, there is enough energy to create uncountable worlds in the universe.

But then again, it sure appears that we must eventually learn to get over our addiction to massive energy bursts and releases via orgasm and stay centered to contain that energy swirling it around - recycle. Or is that just how it is in 3D but not in less restricted realms. hmmmmmm

Also, why must this world have such extreme harshness. I mean, we all know of some REALLY messed up things/experiences. Its so hard to accept. I think it freaks out most of us. The normies often shut down if u try to bring up something detailed. we are living in a pretty messed up haunted house (since its ultimately illusion), yet full of much awesomeness too. We are all sensitive enough that the crazy suffering affects us. I guess that is needed to help change it? But sometimes I wonder how ignorant or crazy I was to get myself into this wild west planet.

[Heart to heart]

I see there are many questions on this thread, many members seeking many answers.

If you wish I could put them to the oracle I work with and get answers. But it would be appreciated if you would put them in a shorter format! I am willing to put them forward and see how it goes!

And you may be pleasantly surprised by the answers you receive, as I have been on many occasions.

‘Ask and you shall receive’, as the “good book” says, so why not give it a go!
