In the Beginning, There was Bliss...

Once upon a moment in Eternity, there existed those known as the Eternal Sons and Daughters of Brilliant Light. They dwelt together on the Mountains of Bliss in the Level 7 Heavens. Also known as “the gods,” their bodies were made of pure Light. Even though Goldensphere was their home space, they could reach any area of the Spirit Realm, any node of thought form experience, at the speed of thought. They shared unlimited access to Universal Omniscient Mind where all knowledge existed. The Light shone magnificently in their space, and each of their unique spirit personalities magnified the Light even more. They often gathered together on the verdant hills of the Mountains of Bliss to share wonderful ideas with each other through communion of their spirits.

During one unique moment, as Michiko and his spirit friends hovered together in the sparkling, refreshing energy, some particularly intriguing ideas began to form in their interconnected minds. Telepathically, the others could hear Michiko’s thoughts. Michiko’s name meant, “child of beautiful wisdom” and he was never shy about sharing his great depth of understanding.

Michiko's thoughts went something like this: “We have been experiencing so much bliss here on Goldensphere that we can’t remember where the bliss began or even imagine it ever ending. And the bliss has become so big that we can hardly appreciate the beauty of it anymore. In fact, it’s at the point where we can’t feel anything anymore or grow anymore,” he continued. His voice almost held a hint of whining, an emotion unheard of in Level 7 Heaven.

“Yeah,” another entity telepathy chimed in. “I mean, are we really still here, or are we dreaming? I’m beginning to feel not so alive anymore.”

This was indeed a crisis! So they called an instant emergency meeting at the Hall of Golden Light. The friends floated inside, continuing their amicable banter as they found their seats at the long table. Their gowns and robes reflected shimmering, radiant colors, brightening the room.

“Meeting called to order!” Aaliyah’s sweet voice rang out as she tapped the table. Aaliyah’s name meant “exalted” or “lofty,” and she never hesitated to take a leadership role when necessary. “Who would like to speak first?”

Saadat quickly raised his hand. Well you know my name means “happiness and bliss” right? Well I must admit, I’ve forgotten what those words even mean.”

“Yeah, I know what you mean,” Shaktiana agreed. For even though her name meant Divine woman, she longed to know if there was a lower or higher realm of "divinity" than what she experienced.

Sabira, meaning “the patient one”, shared with everyone that she too had grown weary of patiently waiting for a sense of greater bliss to encompass her.

The meeting proceeded like this for some time (even though it was just a little blip of time in Eternity of course). In fact, their concentrated thoughts had almost begun to create a less than blissful bubble of energy in the Hall of Golden Light.

There was something missing, they all agreed; something more that needed to be understood. They had always known the Divine Nature of Creator…the Light, the eternal Life, the joy, the exuberant creativity. What if there was a place that had the opposite qualities? A place where darkness existed; where life ended; where people did not have a sense of peace and safety; where there was fear, lack, and evil (Of course none of them could really attest to knowing of these concepts or terms, but I, the author, use these words in an attempt to describe what they must have been thinking.)?

And so they began to devise a plan that would enable them to understand, to experience these alternative states. There would have to be a simulation event created, an immersive world experience separate from Level 7 Heaven. Participants would exist in separated vessels that would allow them to experience different scenarios, mini “story” scripts, where they would explore the desired concepts. The designers and participants would be the best and brightest from Level 7 Heaven. Even the Light Being who encompassed the entire Universal Source Mind, and Energy Field of their existence would also participate inside the simulation, ensuring that all agreed upon requirements and contracts were met.

The specifications, features, and characteristics of the world simulation would have to be determined. Both space and time concepts would have to be formulated for an immersive sensory experience. How could the body vessels be designed for the inhabitant to perceive various stimuli in the world? What type of organisms should exist in the world? What about the physical laws that would bind the elements together? And most importantly, they would need to devise a way to completely forget their original Home and Spiritual nature upon entering the simulated world. After all, there would be no way to truly explore and experience simulated states of existence that were not truly “real” unless they erased all memories of Eternity. Yet, under a state of amnesia, who would comfort them, and ensure that they completed their assignments? Another class of beings in a connected non-physical dimension would be created–angels.

How could a world simulation so intricate and elaborate be created? Well the Eternal Sons and Daughters of Level 7 Heaven could of course swiftly access all the necessary answers and knowledge, as they were all spiritually connected to the Light in which all knowledge dwelt. The voice of Source Creator Spirit whispered within their spirits in response:

“You will use the vibration of sound to create form. You will speak Words formed from my Spirit Energy, which will manifest as a type of code. From the code, your 3D holographic world will be spawned into existence. It will become an extension from the Universal Mind, accessible to all participants in the adventure.”

And so it was in Eternity that the question of Good and Evil had spawned new nodes of activity in Universal Omniscient Mind. The best and brightest of the Sons and Daughters of Brilliant Light began to work on blueprints for worlds, planets, universes. Some of the blueprints were used to form physical world simulation models.

And so the original friends found themselves meeting together again several iterations and eons later at the Hall of Golden Light. Amidst all the chatter, Aaliyah’s hand suddenly shot up. “I’ve got a brilliant idea!” she practically shouted. Her voice reverberated within every one's mind. “You know that planet called Earth in the Solar System just next to ours?” she posed. “That might be the perfect place for us to take this experiment to the next level.”

“Yeah, I learned about that planet in Solar Systems 101,” said Michiko excitedly. “It’s surrounded by dark clouds that cause forgetfulness and scary thoughts. It hasn’t been populated yet, even though it is habitable. The atmosphere shuts out most of the Light of the universe even though anyone living there for long periods of time would begin to think the darkness was normal.” Michiko’s idea of “darkness” of course was relative. It was measured against the light of the Goldensphere which was hundreds of times brighter than most suns in the simulated worlds.

Aaliyah continued. “We could go there and forget ourselves for a while. Then when we come back out, we would begin to taste bliss and Light again like it’s new, and remember the meaning of it. Life would be so delicious again!”

“That would be wonderful, except for a few small concerns, O great ascender Aaliyah,” Michiko interjected in fun. “Wouldn’t we lose awareness of our immortal spirits down there in the darkness...after all it’s pretty cut off from the Light? And what would we do if we couldn’t remember ourselves before we “died”.” Even the wise one wasn’t too sure what would happen if they stayed on the planet for an extended amount of time.

It was Pacho’s (meaning “free”) turn to speak now. “What if we somehow created within ourselves the ability to procreate while on the planet? (You see, there on Goldensphere there was no need to procreate because everyone was immortal.) Many of the explorers of the lower realm planets do that you know. Then we could continue to explore the planet as a group for several generations.”

Everyone agreed that the new adventures would be a great idea! And thus began the long saga of humankind on planet earth. The simulation would endure for millennia, even until most of the Sons and Daughters of Brilliant Light had lost all memory, hope, and knowledge of their true home...until the day when the Universal Rescue, Return and Restore Mission would begin.
