4-39. The perception of separation arose from an assumption that matter begat life. Matter is but the mechanism through which life expresses its evolution. You are inseparable from all else that lives.
To posit a principle of separation from the observation of distinct forms of existence - i.e., the isolation of bodies and their requisite distinctions, is absolutely acceptable and is representative of an arising of a perceptual framework that may have been virtually unavoidable. Simply because it is scientific dogma does not at all imply that it is actually accurate. Yet from the empirical viewpoint, no other conjecture is supported by the evidentiary corpus that comprises much of modern and logical observation, simply because there are indeed principles of organization within the world of form that are fully dependent upon the arising and demise of distinct bundles of cellular structures that interoperate effectively but which must be construed as separate, by force of their final conjunctiveness and independent operation. All of this is quite correct, from the surface-level forms of perception that are inherent to an apparently top-down view of the world of form. What is missing is the realization that attempting to derive larger and more generalized dicta of organization from the lowest and most rudimentary expressions of life is a wholly inverted operation, one that presupposes that the origin of self-assembly within amino acid polypeptides must be a form of emergence of life wholly independent of another, more foundational impetus. It was not and will never be. However such a proposition is fundamentally untestable, at the limits of the scientific method and the resolution of measurement as it stands at this time, simply because the most foundational alignments exist not within anything that is of matter or energy, but rather amongst the universality of awareness and its corresponding desire for expression in form that is the genesis of the necessity for a world of form within which it can find new and infinitely varied methods of emergence and experience. When the layers of Creation are viewed in an inverted manner, all that is the final expression of life is held out as the origin of awareness, rather than being recognized correctly as the last and most limited implementation of a principle of cognition and expansion that is integral with Creation. This is not to imply that all scientific inquiry is moot or without value, for certainly the discovery of the multifold and deeply multivariate alignments of structure and purpose within the world of form speak to a much deeper and far more vastly subtle set of organizing principles that find root in that which is formless, arising in form as methodologies of patterning that are similar, but never exactly definatory of each other’s emergence and growth. It is not an easy task to reverse all that is believed to be the correct perspective to accept when one inquires as to the nature of reality within the physical universe, for many of these notions are deeply held and frequently left fully unquestioned. That they are not the subject of inquiry by many does not leave them as inappropriate subject matter for those that wish to set aside all notions of limitations, so that they might be granted the realizations that must accompany a genuine journey into and through the heart, leaving being all assumptions of the continuity of life within form, finally being able to See that life is not singular or discrete - it is universal in both scope, import and effect. Life exists because it is the Will of God that all that lives shall expand, infinitely and eternally, so that all that lives can become greater than what it once was, transcending all limits and growing ever more peaceful in its acceptance of its undying nature and infinite expanse. Life in form arises because there is an impetus that is universal in scope. There is Creation, and then there are the forms within which Creation is expressed - these two pillars of universality should not ever be conflated as having a direct relationship, for Creation is the cause and the latter - form - is its natural effect. Increasing complexity and the explosive diversity of life in form occurs because awareness desires to know more of what it can be to be present in the world of form, and so new and unique perspectives arise and are engaged with and within, allowing for ever more expressions of Creation to be effected and enjoyed. Because there is but one final and Unitary awareness that pervades all that lives, there can be no rational or justifiably systematic mode of contemplation that can accurately divide that which is always One. But this is so very far from evident within the world of form that it is no wonder at all that so very few have even dared to contemplate such a possibility - which is actually a Certainty when it is Experienced - and equally why such lines of inquiry remain wholly within the disciplines of philosophy and metaphysical conjecture. That is not of any consequence to the veracity of this Truth of Unity through Love, but it is equally inexplicable when the rationality of measurement and repeatability is demanded of its adherents, for they cannot produce some form of evidence that can be easily distilled into a summation of that which is universal in scope. Regardless of the limitations of the scientific perspective, this Truth remains a wholly accurate formulation of a Reality so vast that it must be Experienced to be accepted. What it is that is life is expansion and ever greater levels of understanding - ever increasing levels of awareness and a great journey away from individualism and isolation, freeing the explorer to feel their own innate connection to all else that lives, a pulsing wave of expansiveness that carries with it all that is needed for its own acceptance. But it is not rational, at least in the manner that logical inquiry is currently held out as the final and most valuable form of information acquisition. It is experiential, and so it must be lived to be trusted. That places it so firmly apart from distillations of larger patterns into simple relationships that it will not likely be the subject of any serious study for some time yet to come. That it can be quantified in some manner is possible, but that is not of any particular use for its devoted practitioners. The quantum field and its implications regarding the most fundamental aspects of the lowest levels of the spacetime continuum contain some revelations that are useful, but their implications are so contradictory to the gross level of materiality that its inquisitors experience that they are of little utility indeed, for the genuine acceptance of the principles of superpositioning and the observer’s ability to affect the outcome of certain lines of inquiry, specifically the intersection of wave/particle duality, are just so very far outside of the “normality” of everyday experience that while they are certainly verifiable and unquestionable in scientific terms, they are not yet generally understood or believed within the minds of any who learn of their revelations or implications. Such is the power of belief - it will blind all who accept it irrationally, forgoing any further investigation simply because they have already accepted conclusions that are comfortable, but which may be utterly incorrect. One great and ancient error overrides all of the rest, being the necessary impetus for the Creation of a world of form within which its adherents could explore all that such an error might imply. To believe in separation is to produce a conjecture that has no justification. There is no separation in Creation - it is Unitary and Complete. There is no distinction in all that lives - it is all varying expressions of one life, one that its Eternal. This can be experienced tangentially, oftentimes when one is in a natural wildland that has been less altered by modern industry than the rest of the planet. That is far from the only location within which this spirit of wildness and expansion resides, but it is frequently easier to remember it when one is not beset by the mechanisms of modernity. Once it arises partially, it can become an expansive experience that becomes Universal in import and influence, but that will require the voluntary surrender of the subject of the revelation - not always a simple or ready task for those who remain enamored of fear. To transform the fleeting experience of expansiveness that life wishes to share with you into the Experience of absolute unlimitedness and the endlessness of all that lives, surrender to the first inkling of the possibility that you experience that indicates to you that you might actually be an aspect of something much larger and infinitely more fundamental that your singular perspective of isolation within a body, here in the world of form. Let your heart expand, embracing all else that lives not as some other form of life that is inconsequential to you, but as a sibling spirit that is of a much greater form of Unity that has no rational basis, simply because to Experience it is to leave behind the ego, even if just for the exact amount of time that you are willing to trust that your heart knows your True Nature, and that once discovered within, it will be applicable to all that is labeled as “without”, no matter what form it might be currently occupying.
