MEET ME AT THE OK CORAL.
The physical universe (PU) owns us.
We think we are MADE of it.
We think nothing is certain unless the PU agrees with us even
though we can NEVER be certain of the PU. Allowing a perfect
uncertainty, the PU, to control and define your own perfect certainties,
our own existence as conscious units, is ludicrous.
And worse we have been relegated to being a process in a little
piece of the PU, our brain.
WE DON'T EVEN EXIST, ONLY THE PU EXISTS AND THE PROCESSES IN IT.
This *I* stuff is hallucinatory nonsense.
And we believe we die once our little piece of the PU stops
functioning.
And we need to eat other little pieces of the PU and make THEM stop
functioning just so we can continue functioning ourselves.
Worse we were born to desire to be immortal, but our view of
ourselves as a process in the PU has crushed that desire into oceanic
sorrow, which we are not big or powerful enough feel any more, and which
has finally become 'What sorrow?'
People feel the PU exists because there is something they are
experiencing which they feel they could not make themselves, and only
something like the PU could make them experience it.
They thus use THEIR OWN experience to prove to themselves that
something other than themselves, is causing them to experience it.
Hunger, pain, crushing loneliness and loss, and need for sleep.
I eat the apple and the hunger goes away.
CORRELATION DOES NOT PROVE CAUSATION.
The apple sure TASTES actual. But it is in fact the actuality of
your conscious experience of eating the apple that is then projected
onto the non existent PU.
Your sense of actuality comes from YOU and YOUR SELF LUMINOUS
CONSCIOUSNESS, why would you then attribute your sense of actuality
to something that you haven't clue whether it exists or not?
You believe things exist not because you ran into the physical
universe, but because you ran into YOU!
What people are feeling is the horror of wondering if they are made
of the PU. They feel that they could only feel that horror if they WERE
made of the PU.
Thus doubt becomes self casting.
Consider the following experiments in telepathy.
EXPERIMENT ONE
Say you and Goober decide to prove to the world that telepathy
exists. You and Goober will sit in two different rooms, and you will
think of various numbers and Goober will receive them, but nothing will
be written down. You do this experiment and it works well, and both you
and Goober come out smiling at the end of the experiment.
But everyone around you watching the experiment are not happy at
all, as you haven't proven anything to THEM, and THEY will say you
haven't proven anything to yourselves either.
Say you think the number 5, and Goober gets it and thinks back at
you the same number. That proves to you he got it right? Well how
exactly do you know the second 5 that came from Goober actually came
from him? Can you really be sure where your thoughts come from, maybe
you were just sending and receiving answers to and from yourself.
EXPERIMENT 2
So this time we make Goober write down the numbers he receives from
you and and show them to you at the end of the experiment. Assuming you
can remember what numbers you sent him and in what order, your socks
will probably go electric when what he has written down matches your
transmission exactly.
But again no one else will be impressed, they have no way of know
what numbers you really sent to Goober, or if he got them, all they know
is that you claim they are the same as what Goober wrote down, they have
no reason to trust your claim that they are right.
EXPERIMENT THREE
So this time you write down your number before you transmit it to
Goober, and he writes it down when he receives it, and then later the
both of you compare numbers and they match.
Now the military is interested.
But has anything changed, really changed in what is going on?
In the first case two people are enjoying a clear telepathic
communication to each other, and in the last case they are still
enjoying a clear telepathic communication to each other.
But in the last case we have what we call end to end physical
universe verification of the communication line. This makes everyone
else happy, or nervous as hell depending on your viewpoint of the
matter.
Notice Goober could have simply come over and said what the numbers
you sent him were, and you could say yes or no according to whether he
was right. But no one would buy that.
For other's to buy it, you would have to tell someone other than
Goober, and he would have to tell someone other than you, and THOSE TWO
would have to tell each other for anyone to be impressed at a claimed
match.
But even then only the extra two observers know for sure what they
were told and what they told each other, and everyone ELSE is still in
wonder cuz the two researchers could be lying, hallucinating or
dreaming.
One might have the two researchers publicly speak the numbers AT
THE EXACT SAME TIME so everyone could hear that they weren't in
collusion with each other, but writing it all down on cards that can't
lie or hallucinate makes things easier. Then everyone can come and
compare the cards themselves long after the experiment is done.
The point is that without some PU record AT EACH END of the event,
source and destination, no one can be sure the event happened, probably
not even you and Goober!
So one night you are sitting alone, and you get this thought that
you should go meet Goober at a bar two days hence in a city 2000 miles
away for both of you.
The bar's name is the Ok Coral.
You don't call Goober and he doesn't call you, but you get on an
airplane and end up at the OK Coral on time, and sure enough there is
Goober.
You talk for a while, and then Goober tells you why he had you come
so far, he has a car with a flat that needs changing, that's been lying
fallow on the street from years before when he first visited the OK, and
he needed your help to change the tire. So you both go to the car and
neither one of you can move the lug nuts alone. But together you make
them move and the tire gets changed.
Notice goober didn't need YOU, he needed YOUR BODY. The sum
totality of why Goober wanted you to show up was because of your
physical universe component. The whole rest of you, everything that is
not PU, is totally useless to him.
He has a PU problem that only a PU presence can solve.
And if its not a PU problem, who cares?
Now say another time happens, and you receive a message from Goober
to meet you at the OK Coral again, but this time, to not bring your
body.
So you go to sleep, exteriorize, and move across country to the OK
Coral and lo and behold Goober has done the same thing. So the two of
you, with no physical attachments in sight, have a good evening laughing
and joking about the car thing, and wouldn't it be great if we didn't
need bodies to get things done, and when it is over you both fly home as
spirits, reenter your bodies and wake up.
It doesn't even occur to you to call Goober on the phone to VERIFY
that this all actually happened.
But did it?
So you remember that while you were at the OK this second time as
spirits, Goober told you about a present he had left for you in a hidden
area in your home. You go to find it and sure enough it is right where
he said it was. It was a birthday gift he hid as a child during an
earlier birth day party at your house, it had been there for 30 years
unbeknownst to anyone.
Does that increase the liklihood of the spirit meeting at the OK
Coral being actual rather than delusory?
If so, do you see how you are DEFINING your existence and
experiences as meaningful and actual only if they affect the PU somehow?
But what happens if the PU is itself a dream?
How can the dreamer define the truth of his existence using one of
his own dreams?
Say one night you get a spirit call from Goober again to go out
amongst the stars and play a game of backgammon. You meet Goober out
around Orion, and the two of you co resonate a card hall into existence
with pretty lights, drinks, good food, waitresses, car hops and the
rest, and you play backgammon all night in this SHARED DREAM.
Dawn comes, such as it is on Orion, and you both dissolve the dream
and head for home.
Did this happen?
Does it make it more likely that it happened if you call up Goober
on the PU phone and trade stories?
If the stories match exactly, does that prove with perfect
certainty that the meeting happened?
If the PU is just a dream, why does it have more authority than the
co dream you and Goober created out in the astral stars that night?
Does the fact that EVERYONE agrees to the PU mean that it is
somehow a better dream to verify if you had direct spirit to spirit
contact with someone?
Or worse do you consider that the only reason you would WANT to
have any contact with anyone at all was to deal with a PU issue, as all
other issues were not important enough to deal with?
Is the PU your sole source of important issues?
Is anything you do that is not end to end verified by a PU
interaction simply unworthy of comment because it can't or didn't affect
one of your PU issues?
Would the PU feel violated or left out if you and another
had a spiritual transaction that had no effect on the PU whatsoever?
Is the only thing worth believing in, the existence of PU issues
and importances, and the fact that something did something about them?
Does the PU tell you 'I am the only thing that is important, and
all else is nothing?'
Does the PU say "You are made of me, and when you are gone, I will
live on?"
So how then does one prove to oneself that one has an existence
independent of the PU?
Does getting out of your head prove that?
If so, do you immediately go back into doubt again if you enter
back into your head, or visit another head?
If not, why does the fact that you are in a head now, indicate to
you that you are just a head?
You could say, yes but if I get out and then get back in, I would
have the memory of having been out to give me evidence I am not a head.
And if you lose that memory through age or forgetfulness or
amnesia, do you suddenly start worrying about being a head again?
Have you ever been out of your head?
Did you prove it with end to end PU verification?
If not does it matter?
It is ironic, is it not, that we would depend on PU verification to
prove to ourselves that we are not made of the PU and that the PU in
fact may not exist at all except as a dream, in the infinite minds of
God units.
Does the fact that I 'got out of my head', visited over there in
the PU, and came back and reported here in the PU, what I saw over there
in the PU, make it more likely that I am not made of the PU or that the
PU may be MY dream instead me being its dream?
Would the PU cry tears if you stopped defining the problems
of your life by PU problems looking for PU solutions?
