The Moral of Light

What is a moral other than learning for the moment you’re in? A token of wisdom that encapsulates what you’re going through, how, when you look at this token of wisdom, you see this moral, this lesson, as yours.

I am proposing: what if you could find, through discovery, through challenge, a moral so deep, so to speak, that it is your moral? The moral that you are meant to bring forward for yourself, for others, in a way that you find you are bringing this moral back to divinity, back to all of us, back to the Almighty Creator himself or herself. That this moral is indeed meant for the divine masculine or the divine feminine eternal.

This moral of yours is so significant, so enlightened, that you may even find yourself dissolved by it. That you find yourself as only a vessel, not to personality, not even some deluded sense of purpose of self, the utter motion you have surrounded yourself with, but something that has been projected into the primordial peace of the vastness of space. And you, who have been moral throughout this witness of what has always been, that you, YOU, have found this moral. Unmistakable. Irrefutable. And that even the who in you instantly takes it so deeply that it dissolves, and you are filled with a complete moral.

At first it is a message, then a lesson, then a teaching, then a manifestation. And what if I told you that true moral has a physical representation? The sudden feeding of the masses with a fish—what a moral. The turning of clay pigeons into actual birds again—what a moral. The kneeling on the plains of the Sahara, and I place my finger into the sand and water issues forth—again, what a moral.

No matter how big or how small, the moral of the moment is what is of utmost importance. To focus completely on the now is a hardened one, but you can look to the future and the past as well and see the moral is there also.

You can find your unique moral. Each and every one of us has one. Through countless lifetimes you will reemerge to discover, from this chaos, from this confusion of reality, this moral which is uniquely yours. You will no longer be the Buddhist, be the Christian, be the satanic—you will be the moral.

Your eternity is not the discovery of who or what you are, for that leads downward. What carries upward is to place a thread in the geometry of life, of existence, because that is what carries on, not this shameless self, which is not who you are, not even in the slightest.

The self, the others, the nation, the world, the solar system, the galaxy, and onward forever, continually expanding—you see, this is all motion. The mind is immovable. The mind is independent. The mind perceives motion, the delusion that movement causes. As the mind struggles with what its place is in existence, for it is perceiving even now movement. But being immovable, being independent, notice: through your eyes you may even fall to the ground, but to the mind, which is always at its center, always immovable, quite independent, even death is still a movement.

Now LOOK—there is GOD looking at you, and IS DANCING. GOD wants you to be dancing as well, in its bliss, and is not going to let you go. You must surprise it. You must remind this GOD of the moral you are bringing forward, because in dancing you tend to forget. In bliss you forget. In motion you forget. And so you must remind this GOD of the moral you were meant to bring forward.

This GOD wants you to be dancing as well, just to dance within and without. To dance in the spirit, to dance in the flesh, to dance in the moment and through the moment. But you must not lose the moral in the movement. You must not lose the lesson in the bliss. You must not lose what you came to bring forward.

And this GOD has brought forward the moral of light. How light is a betterment to you, to all others, to all of life. This was, is, and will ever be the Alpha, the Omega, and his was light.

Dance, or not.

The Mind Is Immovable

The mind is immovable. The mind is independent. It can, and it is within and without—you, me, anyone else, even to the blade of grass. You are there too, the mind. Division, unity—what can you do?

This goddess, this god, which is both feminine and masculine, dancing in front of you, is having a very good time, and it will not let you go. What you can do is bring forward a moral. A lesson. A teaching. A manifestation. The physical representation of this moral is what surprises this god/goddess. The moral, as that which surprises this god—remember, you are not a god.

This is when you can separate, in a poor definition of this. Be done. Have enough of experience itself. For if not done in this way, you will remain for countless lifetimes as who you are now, who you are as another. A moral is to be about physical manifestation—not a manifestation of the self, not of movement, not of this god/goddess who has chosen to dance forever.

Again I will say: look up and see this god/goddess. It is underfoot, holding you up. It is above you, even the air you breathe. It is in bliss doing so. But it has forgotten all the morals and remembers them through you, to keep the sacred geometry intact and blossoming.

For you to move from this, you must bring a moral uniquely yours. Your life has a moral to it. You think you know this when you say, what I have learned as a person about my life. But this moral is more than that. This moral is you as a living person, yet more unto this god/goddess than unto you. We are all beings of light.

To remind this god/goddess of moral is to demonstrate the physical representation of this moral uniquely yours, that transcends you as a person. This causes reality itself, to you and to this god/goddess, to remember the moral. Then you will receive something. Once you have paid homage to divinity, you have the moment to transcend experience.

The moral can be perceived as superfluous or as hardened as steel, to the moral of asphalt that carries your foot or vehicle to where you are managing to go. Destiny is managed this way, by the moral or morals that surround us.

The Moral of the Made World

Notice how many eyes look at you. I stand in my room, and the eyes of the carpenter, the electrician, have already seen me within this domicile. To the forest, the grove, the ocean—a different maker, of course—but the moral of the creator is always there: what they have learned in their moment and have surpassed the rest of time, not with who or what we are, but with the moral of their lives, or countless lives.

How the moral of those lives resulted in the betterment of themselves, of others, and supported the myriad of complications with the harmony of a made chair to ease my mind in my time. Rightly so, as I sit in the chair, which is now fact.

It is quite incomprehensible to see how these morals to the Almighty are so easily understood and accepted in reality, the same way that when I command my foot forward, reality accepts that movement without complication, anxiety, or worry that all life will end by the movement of my foot.

And notice how these facts, these logics created by us, are as well understood and accepted freely by reality as not to alter it, at least not in such a significant way as to stop it; and that these morals that we have as well stand the test of time—to me, to you, to all—as a betterment, and that shall stand.

And look how comfortably I sit in this chair, not made by me but by another who caused to commit his moral, his betterment, his chair, and has done so well that the chair still stands within reality without inevitable annihilation—an end that always seems distant to us, and so causes this illusion of non-being within us all.

No one said it would be easy, and you are not guaranteed to be happy about this. But find contented, for it holds quite the flavor these days. Content and content are very much the same. But today, enough. You can narrow this down to karma.

Content and Karma

To explain karma and content:

Content is consciousness. The tunnel that you are aware of as you—not you as self, but you as chi. Chi is the wisdom of the cosmos itself, wisdom which is harmony, wisdom always in refinement. We are forever in the process of the refinement of wisdom. Even as the quantum and the quasar hold themselves to a unity, there is a wisdom which does this, and we try to translate it into other words like math, design, or what have you, and in futility call it our discovery.

Chi has been likened unto magic, science, to thera, and will be called something else by something else, but it is chi that holds it all together. The content which surrounds the content—the consciousness—whether yours or the cosmos, neither possesses it. You cannot possess consciousness, for that would make it static, the same, and unmoving. To possess consciousness would mean it is still.

There comes a matter of faith, then, to let consciousness go, so that it restructures, or continues forward or backward, at a level of wisdom. And to fool with the understanding of something such as this, to fidget with it, would only blossom more fear. To put yourself in fear is to put yourself back into existence, but now with more contemplation of the confusion.

Karma is the flow, the relationship of chi and movement, chi and the self. Bad karma is the flow that is obscurant, the obstinate, that which blocks or frustrates the flow of this relationship, sometimes in the hope of something new, or in return to that which is old.

Good karma is that which supports the flow to continue forward.

Yes, HE is right: God/Goddess on one hand, Buddha on the other, to stop karma. But once again, to free yourself from experience, from the God, you must bring forward a moral. This also frees you from the Buddha.
