You are in a reality that is moldable like putty and you are engaged in 24/7 non-stop warfare on how to sculpt it.
I use the word “warfare” not because this is a desirable state but because we aren’t quite to the point where we might call it true co-creation — cooperative design, or play.
As long as we are fixated or stuck into the machinations of the physical world, we are subject to the whims of all the comings and goings of the minds in the “ethereal.” You might consider the ethereal your own imagination or psychic space, the collective unconscious, the dream realm, a shared psychic realm, the plane of intentions, the universal boardroom where deals are made, the universal courthouse, or the universal diplomatic embassy.
Becoming overly enamored with the physical world which is primarily done via fixation — generally as a result of having a poor grasp of self, or incoherence within one’s paradigm. Another way to identify fixation is being too attached to all your yesterdays, or too focused on all your tomorrows. While everything is “now”, you want to have skillful discernment in what you “distill” from your past and what anchors you allow to guide your tomorrows.
This is how we allow tomorrow to influence yesterday, because it allows us to decide what yesterday is still useful to us in producing “now.”
The ego is easier to identify when you understand that it is ruthlessly linear. It absolutely cannot let go of yesterday. It is “historic.” It does not understand the virtue of forgiveness, which is being able to release yesterday without prerequisites or conditions. Forgiveness is how contrivances and seemingly unresolvable situations are resolved — by forgiving them and letting them go. This is also the beginning of time travel.
The “hope” you retain for tomorrow represents a space that you open within yourself, like a basin laden with love or allowance. Rather than stipulating how this tomorrow might come to you in the form of plans and agendas, all you need is the hold the cup — hold the space — and allow the universe to decide how to fulfill your desire, or direction. This allows you to remain situated in the present moment without being lost in a sea of chaos without having some value for “time.”
Do you feel like someone is your enemy? Your rival? The source of all your woes? Do you feel like you need to prove something to them? To have something over them? Do you feel threatened by them, or like they are trying to take something from you?
The villains — the demons — in our lives are showing us what we need to see in order to forgive, or let go. What we “hold onto” are the literal boundaries that keep our realities stable. You could say the role of the devil is one of boundaries and the devil must be given his due.
This does not mean that we are giving “approval” to the devil/demon, but accepting its role in allowing creation to exist. When we are able to forgive, we are shifting boundaries — shifting timelines — not just for ourselves — because remember, this is “4d warfare” — but all parties involved. We are allowing for the highest outcomes. The “manifestation” or what “becomes real” is only after all parties have settled on an agreement and allowed it to take shape. There is nothing happening “outside” of you that is permanent or given.
The devil’s job is to maintain boundaries against all opposition. And he cannot be beat at it, so don’t try. It is not “evil”, but that is its role. There are no lengths to which it will not to go retain boundaries if you cannot forgive, or release, because that is the literal function of forgiveness — to remove boundaries. Pride, stubbornness, needing to prove something — are all simple and obvious examples of how boundaries are chosen & maintained, but boundaries can be anything.
You will “hear” (through the unfolding of your reality, not a discrete event) all the reasons when you approach these boundaries to maintain them. You will experience perfect story to get you to keep your boundaries if you do not have sufficient resolve to change them. You will never be able to alter them so long as you continue to value them against the desire of letting them go.
“But if you’ve made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth”
Jacob’s Ladder (1990)
You may maintain or release any boundaries you wish. However, if you maintain boundaries without understanding why they are there, then you risk creating weights out of them — places of fixation from which you will manifest. In other words, this is the difference between understanding the terms of your contract and allowing someone else to dictate the terms because you don’t understand what boundaries you are valuing (or not.)
Do you think “memory” is historical? As in only pertinent to yesterday? It is not. Memory is both yesterday and tomorrow. The memory of both yesterday and tomorrow are simply decisions of what you choose to value to inform today. There is no difference between either. The distinction is an illusion that creates the feel of going forward in sequence.
Whenever you make decisions or set intentions, you are deciding to negotiate new terms & contracts with the universe. And when this is done, it is always a discussion of boundaries. The universe (or “the devil”, your ego, your daemons, etc.) will begin to show you what boundaries need to be moved or changed, even if these are hidden deep within you. For example, if you have trouble having relationships, your suffering is showing you where your problems are as long as you are not fooled by the devil into further fixation/density.
If you choose to remain in despair, blame someone or something else, maintain your old way of being and so on, you are allowing the boundaries to win — the devil to “fool” you.
You remain “unfooled” via having a firmer understanding of yourself and how your particular head & heart align in your own brand of truth. Actualization is the ability to distill your own ego out of the equation so that the devil may always be recognized from your negotiations.
The devil is an immaculate negotiator and you must remain firm in your desires. He will leave no stone unturned. He will bend, break, cheat, and steal all of reality underneath you, if necessary. It is not the devil you are making the deal with — rather, the devil is just the middleman showing you all the parameters within yourself that must be altered to arrive at your destination. God / universe has the exclusive domain in creation whom you are always working with. You cannot be disconnected from God.
You will eventually and inevitably come to a point in your life where it seems that all possible terms are impossible, inconceivable, non-negotiable or that there is no way forward. This is what I call a CONTRIVANCE, or a point where the verisimilitude of your story has become totally incompatible with some element of itself — the colliding of worlds.
When this happens, you have three choices: 1) You can remain in deliberations for as long as you wish — Groundhog’s Day — time is irrelevant and the devil can argue with you literally for all time and you will never win (this is where you learn concepts like faith & surrender), 2) You can give into despair and die with the world you have created from which there are no exits, 3) You can forgive, allow the old world to die and move into a new one.
When you begin to understand that we live in a multiverse and that we are not the selves we play within the context of our qualia (more like complicated expressions of light) — and when you can remove your own ego to the best of your ability — then whatever you wish to experience becomes closer to reality, even when it involves The Other.
You may think that this would violate the will of another, but not if Others are manifesting each other — that they are agreeing to the terms in the space of the “buffer” before anything is ever “rendered.” And furthermore, not when you understand that the qualia — the game — is not where our true selves — our souls — reside. The totalities — the full akashic record/knowing/memories (see last article) — of our souls are “outside space & time.”
It is the soul you enter into negotiations with beyond the physical — the “3d” — and all souls are amiable to playing with each other, as fundamentally we are “love.” Meaning, we will all play the roles for each other that are needed to have the experiences we desire — whether we are heroes or villains. Every person can become a hero, or a villain and it is YOU who is deciding.
The immediate “point” upon the record — again last article — is where “you” are playing your song, but you have no idea where the point is for anyone else and this is to everyone’s advantage in fulfilling all wishes. You simply need to let go that you know anything about the other songs and let them join you in harmony — or not — as all co-creators organically align.
The unique way you may experience this is not totally within your control because of the buffer — the trail that you are always leaving behind as your will (your endless light) executes. Without this trail, you would simply be lost in a chaotic sea of possibilities, jumping from one dream to another. It is this trail that allows you and others to stabilize and create co-creative realities — but we are here to teach each other that our reality does not need to ruthlessly follow in sequence, which has been the cause of so much suffering for so long.
When we can forgive, we can rewrite time itself. We can start over. We aren’t pretending something didn’t happen — we are literally making a new agreement where it no longer informs our subsequent creation. And this can only really be fully understand once you understand that you are the “originator (the needle!)” of your own qualia. You are “stuck” there, so what manifests for you will is always personal to you. There is no concrete, static world unfolding outside of you that is immutable — that is unforgivable — that is historic. It is YOUR decision — your 4D WARFARE — that decides what you “allow.”
The difficult part of this knowledge is that the devil — boundaries — are almost always painful, because pain is what we want to avoid. “Avoid” is the definition of a boundary. And boundaries are simply required for life to exist. If you want your life to change, you have to be willing to embrace pain, otherwise you will never change, exceed or breakdown any boundaries. You will always allow yourself to be convinced by the devil.
You’re protecting him. But with what? Where is the best place an opponent should hide? In the last place you will ever look. He’s hiding behind your pain.
Revolver (2005)
If you are happy where you are at in your life, there is no problem whatsoever in being “convinced.” The devil is not the devil, in that case, but a friend who is defending your world and harmony for you. But if you are not happy, then the devil returns to you to re-negotiate, because your happiness — your coherence — is what allows the boundaries to remain intact, like the difference between a tornado and a breezy day.
When boundaries fall, lives are forced into changes. Disasters happen to show us where our hearts want to be, or where we are going but cannot always see. Wisdom is what allows us to mitigate the process of changing boundaries with as little disaster as possible.
Whatever you wish to keep about yourself is what you will need to come into congruence with. If what you wish to keep seems at odds with the world you are trying to maintain, then either you must abandon what you value, or abandon the world itself. You can abandon the world by stepping into a new one, or stagnating, letting the world take you with it as it dies — forcing you to learn again from a fresh slate. The choice is yours.
This article does not express the subtly in which the devil operates. For example, would you abandon happy memories of someone for any reason? If you would, the devil will find that reason and give it to you. Or do you value the time & love you spent with someone, regardless against all obstacles or what “terms” are being proposed? That is the confidence you need. That is the basis of will, or love. Once again, when you understand our true selves are “beyond the scene of our lives” why would you argue with a phantom, or an avatar?
How do I put this …
Let us pretend two people are making a pot of stew. One person wants to use chicken and the other wants to use beef. When you allow someone (the scene/avatar) to dictate the terms, you are arguing with the beef or the chicken itself, allowing the beef or chicken to make its case, rather than the cook (soul) wanting to use a particular ingredient. The beef will always argue for itself, as will the chicken, because each represent its own boundaries — both represent the interests of the physical world, the scene, or the devil. You don’t need to negotiate with the ingredients. You need to come to an accord with the other cooks — the souls playing the game.
This is the shoddy example of the 4d warfare I am talking about.
Once again, once you understand that we are multiversal/multidimensional, there is always a version of the fellow cook who will be happy to use whatever ingredient you wish to use. You aren’t dictating their free will, because to convince them to use beef or chicken may require the other cook to make some adjustments first — to change some of the contents of their soul. This is where divine timing comes into play. These adjustments are the “space” you are creating and negotiating with when you engage with another soul before it arrives to your 3d/phsyical/immediate qualia.
This is further exemplified that when you understand that everything is an appearance. Ask yourself — how does one identify the soul behind the mask? Is there room to allow that one soul may reject your terms, while another accepts them, without ever changing the physical appearance? How do you know whether someone is “account sharing“? The answer is that you are deciding the terms and deciding what you will accept as authentic and subsequently what role they will play, as well as what role you will play.
All souls, loving in nature, are more than happy to bend space & time to figure out whatever needs to change. But this does not mean the process will be easy. The totalities — the “contents” of each soul — must still have some place where a bridge or connection can be made and the devil still gets his due. You will be shown what you need to change or accept about yourself as will the other co-creators and these may reflect traumas or wounds, but they may also represent new perspectives or ideas that we aren’t used to that we have to be open to allowing.
Nothing will ever be perfect, otherwise you would be God.
This process need not occur in the “physical” realm. As you hold a decision/intention, hold space and then “let go”, the universe will begin to guide you along the path to fulfilling your decisions. It may guide you down hundreds of unrelated paths because all co-creators are doing what is needed to allow the reality to come to fruition.
What I call ONE WORLDISM makes these concepts hard to understand because when we think there are linear unfolding events happening outside of our awareness, we are locking down The Other from its own potential. We think there is a “one world” marching onwards outside of our awareness, not understanding we are tied to it and so it “updates as one” with us. If we are not allowing we are creating anchors, or parameters, or terms on how the universe should deliver our intentions.
When “the world” is an independent world instead of intertwined with us, we are forcing it down an expected singular path, or without hope of escape (yesterday = no forgiveness, tomorrow = no hope / no escape). And in so doing, we lock ourselves down as well. It is when we are able to focus on our “own lane” that we liberate The Other to perform miracles and to experience miracles for ourselves too.
If we obsess or worry about the world that seems like it is outside of us, it actually manifests and locks us into that worry and obsession to experience, because that is what we are creating — that is what we are negotiating with other co-creators to experience by our own free will choice. When we go too far with this, we increase our fixation and density or our “physical properties” and we become more ruled by decisions literally OUTSIDE of us, instead of inside of us, through a gradual obfuscation of our choices. See Fixation and the Matchmaker for more information.
As you begin to more intimately understand all of this, you also understand that there are extremely damaging and detrimental mindsets to fulfilling your intentions. Attitudes disposed to thinking in terms of competition or survival are antithetical and destructive. And you will need to learn when the Other is wanting to impose these upon you and be willing to put your foot down and say “no“, otherwise you will be drawn into what I call “unnecessary story.”
As we become better masters of “4d negotiation”, we realize the utter futility and regression that any kind of pettiness or competitiveness hurts the highest potential of all parties — creating miserable timelines to have to unravel — and we have to be willing to educate not just ourselves, but others, in the true nature of “the devil.”
We cannot let other people’s misunderstanding, or submission, to the devil — boundaries — resistance — because they refuse to change, evolve, or cannot see these mechanics — be our own undoing. This may sometimes require us to feel like we are the villains for a time if we have to make changes others are not happy about.
We all have a duty to not only recognize our full potential, but to act upon it as well, even when and especially when it is uncomfortable (and again, where does the devil hide? Behind pain.) In so doing, you enable others to reveal your devils (and their devils to themselves.) In failing to act on your potential, you stagnate — you invite the world to victimize and consume you, until you reach what I called above — Contrivance — and are forced to make a decision.
I have used the term “the devil” in this article, but I want readers to understand that this is not intended as a personification. A devil, or a demon, as I have mentioned in prior articles, represents an automation, or daemon in computer terms — that forms as a fundamental basis for perpetuating our realities. This might also be subconscious, or a hidden co-creator, or a self-perpetuating fixture of some kind.
We call it a “devil” when it seems like it controls us more than we control it — and often dealing with the devil is not pleasant, even when we understand that boundaries must be changed. In fact, I hope I have demonstrated that it is best to see pain for what it is — a boundary we either value or don’t and it is up to us to re-negotiate the terms.
Here is perhaps the most critical thing that will help understand the core of this article: The universe shows you what you need to see. It does this through the physical world, through people, through dreams, through words and pictures, feelings, emotions — it the fabric of the world will bend and contort like a mirage to show you the truth in perfect order. The scene of your life never contains deception. NEVER. Deception is imposed by you after the fact. What is you see is always true but it is up to you to discern it.
This means whatever you are going through in your life is exactly what you need to see in order to get where you want to go, even if it is vile and painful, because that pain is within you and you must decide on how you wish to deal with it — either embrace it and integrate it, or let it destroy you.
There is always a reality that is compatible with what you want. You just need to open & close the right spaces within yourself and allow it to flow into you. If you have trouble finding this flow, this is showing you what is “blocked” so it might be remedied. This is where discipline & persistence will win you the day, but never let yourself fall into unnecessary endurance or brute force. Flow is flow because it is soothing & flowing not abrasive/eroding or blocking/restrictive.
That’ll do for now.
