So let’s look at a couple of maps and models of reality that I think can help us to understand all of this, and why it is so important to transform our consciousness. Let’s begin by using the image of a dream.
When you have a dream, someone is sending that dream to you. An intelligence is creating that dream. It doesn’t happen by accident. It’s not random, and those who have studied dreams—and there are many today who are again studying dreams—Freud was again the first one in the modern Western academic lineage to take dreams seriously again—but if you go back to biblical times, dream interpretation was always a part of becoming a spiritual guide or a shaman. And dream interpretation is present as a practice and a form of knowledge in all of the esoteric spiritual traditions.
But today you have psychologists who do not study dreams, they don’t know anything about them, and they believe what they are told—which is that it’s just garbage-in, garbage-out; they have no meaning, or its just a residue of daytime images, and forget about it, it’s not important, etc.—but they are indeed important. They are messages. They come from different levels of the unconscious.
Not all dreams come from the same level of the spectrum of consciousness, but they are messages that will give you warnings of things that are wrong in your unconscious, that can create problems in your life in the future, premonitions and precognitions of things that will actually happen, and they can tell you about the next step in your spiritual development to higher stages of consciousness, (these are what Jung called “archetypal dreams” that are coming from a higher level of Being, not just from the soul, but from the Holy Spirit that is guiding you to transcend the ego). And there are hell realm dreams, anxiety dreams, dreams that are telling you that there are some very dangerous forces within your unconscious that must be dealt with immediately, and put the red light on so you cannot forget it when you wake up, and it stays with you. Those are to be taken very seriously, and to be worked on with a spiritual guide. And this was something that was taken for granted that everybody would know in the earlier cultures, but now, you know, people take a pill to forget about it and go on—but you’re putting a band aid over a situation that then will create a worse karmic backlash if you don’t deal with it directly.
So it’s important when we understand the dream to recognize that we have the, let’s say, the Source intelligence that is sending the dream; then we have the dream transmission itself—let’s put dream transmission information [writing on white board], because the manifest dream that you remember when you wake up is not actually the dream you had. In the same way that The Matrix (if you’ve all seen that movie, I’m sure) seems to be a world that is inhabited, but actually it’s just 1’s and 0’s—it’s not a real world at all. If you get to the source code you recognize that it’s a completely fictional structure of logic, and that in effect is what the dream world is; it’s a structure of information but again we’re receiving it in the form of images that provide the sense of being in a world, world information, there is the sensory or mental information that you get, there are actually communications that happen in the dream, and there is a linear narrative usually, or even a non-linear narrative. And then there is the symbolic, or the psychic information that you usually only come to understand once you wake up from the dream.
So then you have the “dreamee” who wakes up and remembers the dream. Now, the dream contains usually a sense of yourself as being an actor or a character in the dream—but the character who is in the dream is not the same one who wakes up from the dream and says, “wow what a dream that was!”—right? They are two different senses of self, and both of them are different from the Source intelligence that created the dream. But the real point of the dream is for the dreamee, who wakes up from the dream, and interprets it accurately—which will enable the dreamee, then, to realize the truth that the one who wakes up is not the one who was in the dream, but this one [pointing to whiteboard]—you are in fact the Intelligence that sent you the dream in the first place in order to awaken you to realize who you really are.
So the dream is a message from your unknown Self to your known self to tell you that your known self is actually a false self, and that you are a different self. And it’s telling you that there is an even worse unconscious self that is running your life, that you don’t know about, that is going to get you in a lot of trouble if you don’t purify that unconscious censor, that we talked about last night, the unconscious fantasies that will get acted out in the dream, but that also are having an effect and contaminating your waking life. So that’s why you could say that the dream is a message from God, if you will, or a message from your Real Self, and it’s trying help you to become your Real Self.
And so this is a kind of a cycle that we call the “Atmanological cycle”. It’s analogous to the hydrological cycle; the hydrological cycle: you have the ocean, there is an evaporation of the water, the water vapor becomes clouds, the clouds pour down on the mountains, and then they pour down through various streams, and they end up as a river, and then that river again will return to the ocean. In the same way that water goes through this hydrological cycle, we go through the same thing—we do it in a circadian rhythm every day, and we go through it in our life, and we go through it in a whole cycle of lives throughout a whole historical epoch, and through the entire history of our world.
And so we are going through that cycle now at a moment in which we are as a collectivity, as a consciousness, on planet earth, awakening to our real intelligence. That’s really the historical significance of this moment in time, where there is a collapse of the world conditions that enabled us to remain asleep, and we must awaken to our full potential, if we are going to solve the problems that we face, that can no longer be solved from within the false ego identity, which is inadequate to the challenge.
So we either give up and be nihilists and say it’s hopeless, or we rise to the challenge by awakening. And by awakening, we reach a level of intelligence far greater than the intelligence of the ego that is blind to its own unconscious, and to the fact that it is in a dream.
So the yogis say that the world is the equivalent of a dream. And the world is presented to you by an unknown God in order for you to realize that you are a part of that unknown God, and return to God-consciousness, and then have the power to change the world in a positive way; to literally redream the world. And this is that moment when that potential can be actualized. So this is a moment of history that has been prophesied by all the religions, that we would reach this point, they have all said that—at that point they mythologized that it’s the Second Coming of Jesus, or the coming of Kalki, or the coming of the final Imam, or the coming of whatever in every religion that has an equivalent of that ultimate revelation of the truth of our Being, and the awakening from the dream into the reality of God-consciousness.
So that is our imperative at this moment: to awaken or to face extinction, and to possibly face the earth becoming a dead planet due to our own misbehavior, and our opening pandora’s box of radioactivity and pollution and destruction of our sacred nature, because we have preferred to worship money than to worship the true wealth of reality that God has given us. And that is destroying us. It is those very vices of greed, and of the arrogance of the ego, the belief that one is a master over nature, and that we are not part of a much larger ecosystem, and that we are not subservient to the intelligence of God—all of those things—the hubris of the modern ego is causing its own self-destruction.
So in order to get out of that, it requires the humility and the will to silence the ego and rediscover the still, small voice of God, within your heart, that will guide you to that higher consciousness that can literally bring salvation from the condition of damnation that our planet is now suffering under.
And because there is a movement of collective consciousness that effects the whole planet, the whole global human species simultaneously, that leads to all of the epochal shifts in consciousness, in the rise and fall of civilizations, which historians have documented from Toynbee and others—The Decline of the West and all of those other great historical studies.
Every civilization has a life span. It is born through a pure signal of a new coherent understanding, it flourishes because of that, and its being centered around the I am-ness, and the people gradually lose it, and they start spending the wealth that they’ve created, they reach a point then of decline, and then of death, and then a new civilization arises. And so, we have seen this happen with the Greeks, the Roman empire, the Scythians, the ancient Chinese—all of them have gone through these various rises and falls, and now we are in the unprecedented situation of the entire planet at the same moment falling into a state of collapse—without there being any sign of a rise of a new civilization anywhere.
And so the rise must happen, and it is happening, but it’s not happening in a typical way. It’s happening through sprouts of grassroots awakenings of consciousness, at various points of the globe, that will create a very subtle grid of a new consciousness, that will finally establish itself at the moment when the breakdown of the mainstream consciousness falls to a certain level, and the signal of the new consciousness overcomes the noise of the chaos of the dying civilization.
So we’re going through that shift very subtly, but the consciousness and the energy of the new is happening in such a subtle way that it’s below the radar screen, which is part of the intentionality of it, so that it won’t be destroyed before it can grow into a sufficient amount of strength, and it will gradually then supplant the old dying civilization and allow a new one to be born its ruins, and to use the old as the fertilizer for the new. And this will bring about an entirely different world order, not the one that they talk about now, but one that will be truly based on divine order, and there will be a new language—it won’t be English, sorry gringos; this is not your empire anymore—and it won’t be any of the languages we have today, but a language that is appropriate to the higher consciousness that we will have ascended to.
So this civilization will also be able to be attuned, telepathically, to one another, so that the verbal language is secondary in its importance, and there will be a heart connection with everyone, and so therefore there won’t be any need for money. There won’t be any need for that kind of exchange that is used when people are at arm’s length, and they don’t trust one another, and they hire lawyers for all kinds of contracts with small print, because they worry about people not keeping their promises. And all of that will no longer be required in a civilization based on truth, and of love, and of the Real Self.
But right now it’s very easy to be cynical about all of that and to say, “No, that could never happen. It’s utopian. They’ve talked about this for a long time and things have gotten worse and worse.” And yes, that’s correct. But they really can’t get much worse than this. We have hit bottom. And it’s a question of do or die. And it’s important to consider with a very open mind the possibility of higher consciousness than anything you’ve been taught about in school that is possible to us, and which the yogis and the saints and sages of every tradition have proven is a reality if you’re willing to do the inner work of self-purification and transformation, to reach the true Self.
So that’s what we are dedicated to doing here, and doing it as a scientific experiment, to discover if it is possible, not to decide in advance, and not simply to believe it is, and then just leave it like that, and hope some messiah will come and do the work for us. No! We have to do it. We have to be the ones that we’re waiting for and make it happen through our own self-transformation.
And once we take that on and make a commitment to it, then we will realize that we are being guided, and the energy is there. But we have to go first. We have to say, “Yes, I’m going to do it, and I’m going to dedicate myself to being the true Self, and living in the light, not in the darkness, not in the lies, not in the self-deception.” And then you will receive the power to be able to overcome the temptations, and the negativity, and the cynicism, and be able to be victorious over the illusions of the ego.
But it is work at the beginning in phase one. And as I say in the second phase, and the third phase, it becomes much easier when grace takes over, and the flow of the energy becomes that of God. But you have to open that channel to allow the energy of God to flow though you. That’s using our free will. It won’t happen without our choice, because God gave us the free will to say yes or no to God, and we’ve been saying no thanks to God for a long time now, and the result is chaos and destruction of our environment. So it’s time to say yes, and discover what is really possible, and to not preconceive that there are no solutions to the world’s problems, because there are, but they require an intelligence level sufficient to realize those solutions.
