My condolences DarkOwl. Sorry to hear about your mom.

This incident with the masks was surprising, and inspiring.

Thanks for your detailed reply QUIETpuddle, I was wise enough to prioritize doing the inner work and working on the spiritual foundation. And intuitively knew that prioritizing and focusing on pursuing the superpower abilities, would slow my progress in my spiritual path instead of helping. I see those like using drugs to access states that you are not spiritually prepared for can lead to problems instead of help.

And I understood that those states are arbitrary and not rigid and I understood that they also can overlap and are not a linear rigid sequence of stages.

And that's a good point that the "I" can not be fully sincere in it's willingness to surrender. And I am sincere and committed on my spiritual "study" and in living embodying what I study so I have experienced many times subtle, light like a feather, realizations or revelations, that come like a thief in the night. Of course not about the "final" ineffable revelation realization of the Absolute,   but about smaller realizations that are huge leaps and milestones in my spiritual progress. I loved that bridge between the two worlds concept that ACIM calls "Holy Spirit"(it even has the same initials as Higher Self), knowing about it is extremely helpful and offers some peace of mind cause I realized that there is a part of me that has not lost the connection and I can never be lost forever inside the illusion. And it understands my illusions and my symbols in the illusion and I can recognize sometimes "it's" hand in using my own illusions to guide me towards a gradual liberation from my illusory cages.

I believe Yazhi is saying that once you merge with source and "you" disappear then eventually an "I" happens to re-emerge and start the cycle all over again in a different variation this time(and I am wondering whether other souls with their unique soul journey are exactly that). And that makes sense to me cause I am and I and how the heck did I happen to enter in the world of time and illusion and if it happened once why not happen again.

And I understand the non duality perspective on this but this is something that non duality can't explain and give a satisfactory answer to my mind. How did "I" or the Whole get inside the illusion in the first place. And what does make sense to me is that the complete is not complete without the world of illusions. The entering into a "state" of illusion happening being a part of the changeless timeless eternal creation that just is, makes sense to me.   

Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to reply, I'll read this again when I find time and your other posts that I have only read without studying them and see if there is anything I wanna discuss.

PS
One last thing that I just thought, my mind is having a hard time putting you in a little box so would you say that the closest symbol/metaphor I can think of using to understand you with my mind is the concept of the Voice for God/"Holy Spirit" of ACIM? Are you a bridge between the REALITY of the ABSOLUTE and the world of illusions? Or have "you" disappeared and merged with Source and I am talking to the Whole/Source directly through the tulpa of your body/mind that you were in before your disappearance?

I love your signature, it is brilliant! It conveys so much with so few words.

@CHARCOtranquilo

Why did the Whole/Source happened to enter in an illusion of time? Is this happening part of the eternal,complete, timeless creation?

Isn't this illusion of separation where it appears that the Whole/Source is a separate person, something that always was part of the eternal complete reality/eternal creation?

And isn't the experience real while the Whole appears to be dreaming of being a person and not the Whole? Can we say that the experience is not real while the Whole appears and believes to be inside a dream/illusion where it appears to have forgotten that it is a dream/illusion and not real?

We can say that it wasn't real when the realization happens, but can we say it isn't real while the realization hasn't happened?

We can say that the only thing real inside the dream is the Whole, Who/What We Really Are, so doesn't that mean that the experience that the Whole appears to be having is a real experience while the realization hasn't happened? And only once the realization happens, only then there is the realization that it wasn't real and that it never happened in reality but only inside a dream, but isn't the experience real before the realization that all that happened inside a dream and it didn't happen in reality?

Isn't it real UNTIL the the realization that all that happened inside a dream and never happened in reality?

And how did that realization happen to be forgotten? Was the timeless "event" of forgetting that realization, that created the illusion and the world of time, always eternally part of the eternal reality?

Anyway.

I understand these questions are from the perspective of an "I", an ego-person-soul, inside duality but they are good questions that probably can't be answered with words but only through direct experience and revelation. And I suspect pursuing these questions invites the part of the "I" that is the bridge between the world of time and the "eternal world", to prepare the ground for the realization to happen. So "I" better not think about this too much lol

And it's an illusion of jumping from matrix to matrix anyway, "we" are dreaming of all of that , so why can't the Whole/Source enjoy the dream of duality? It's not that bad in the less veiled and less dense layers of the dream where there are no nightmares. And it can't be ad infinitum cause eventually the realization happens, that all this is just an illusion, just a dream and it never really happened in reality.

I personally don't mind the higher densities where there is less duality and no nightmares and am not in a rush to exit the world of time and duality and even if I wanted to exit, from what I understand it's not up to me anyway and I have infinite time so why the rush. So why not enjoy the dream and only exit the lower frequency matrix cages. But I do wanna exit and assist anyone else that truly wants to exit this artificial matrix ASAP and then after about 1000Y in the "5D" cage I am probably done with that cage too. Although the way I'm going and with Yazhi's info I'll probably exit both the "3D" and the "5D" cages and "ascend" directly to "7D" and experience the "5D" as a "guest" where it is other people's cage and not my cage, like Athena and Yazhi.

Anyway.

(First a disclaimer: I am mostly thinking out loud here, this is thought in progress. I just started writing and haven't thought about what you are saying too deeply, so I may have misunderstood what you are trying to express Happy. If you(or anyone else) are interested and when you find time, you can use this long 'rant' (that is related but also mixes it with with the wholographic topic) to get an idea of my understanding on this and point out where I may have a different understanding on what you are trying to express. )

Well now I am not so sure that the way I understood that sentence is the way you mean it. Maybe another way to put it is "Authority is the right to choose to explain or not explain behavior affecting others"?

What I got when I read that definition of authority is something like a captain of a star-ship that has an authority over the star-ship, or a special ops team leader that has an authority over the mission/operation. Where they make decisions and choices/behaviors that will affect everyone in the ship or the team and don't have to explain their decisions or their behavior.

And in the case of a hierarchical (power over others(poo), other-responsible) group/social structure, instead of explaining, they give an order and the other party obeys the order (or else face some kind of punishment using some kind of force).

Or in the case of non-hierarchical (power-within, self-responsible) group/social structure, instead of explaining, the captain or team leader relies on the other party trusting them and their decision, and the other team members have the right to choose to not follow the team leader's decision without explanation (and without facing any type of punishment).

And the captain or team leader will trust their choice and decision. So this is based on trust, instead of on force. All members of the team mutually trust all other team members' decisions and behavior, without them having to communicate the reasons behind it. No matter what team role they have assumed responsibility for, and even if a team member has assumed responsibility for being a team leader.

And if there is time, they can have a meeting and through communication find a decision that they all can get on board with. Or if it is a time critical matter the team members that disagree can stay out of it or if they are needed for the operation then the operation is cancelled if they can't be replaced. And they can have a team meeting afterwards and conclude who was responsible for the failure of the operation. If it was the captain or team leader then they will face the proper consequences (not punishment)of their decision, if it was the team member(s) that disagreed with the team leader, then they will face the proper consequences (not punishment) of that decision.

So in a way in this type of non-hierarchical group structure, it's not the captain or team leader that has authority over the star-ship or the operation, but all the members of the team have equal co-authority and assume equal co-responsibility over the star-ship or over the operation. Each through their unique specialization. 

And since the only real type of authority is the natural personal authority, the imposed/imposing type of authority is an illusion created and maintained using the real natural personal authority. A shared illusion by both parties, where one of them believes they have authority over the other, and the other one believes that someone can have an authority over them. The person giving away their authority is still using their natural personal authority to choose to obey the other person. And the other person is using their natural personal authority to assume authority over others using some type of force or leverage or some way to apply pressure to others to force them to willingly submit to their authority.   

The type 2 authority requires 2 or more people to agree on some level(mostly on a subconscious level) to play that co-dependent "3rd/4th density" game of giving your authority away/having authority over others.

And also in the spirit of "BOTH this -AND- that"(as opposed to "ONLY this -OR- ONLY that") there could be a third type of authority, type 3 (type 1+2=3 ), and we could call that co-authority. Or wholographic authority where every member of the group is a wholographic member.

Meaning that if you "cut" the group (or the 'collective consciousness of the group') in two or more parts, you get two or more parts of the whole group and not one half of the group and another half of the group as in non-wholographic groups. Every member of the wholographic group is a unique version of the entire group and contains the entire group in them and not just a piece of the group.

So they can speak both for themselves and for the entire group(their own unique version of it). S/he is BOTH an individual member of the group AND at the same time the entire group too. And [BOTH an individual AND the entire group] = every member is a unique version of the group and they are not all the same version of the group.

Anyway, there are two main ideas in this post:

-- the one is the idea of co-authority or wholographic authority (non-hierarchical, power-within, self-responsible)

-- and the other one is the idea that the type 2 imposed/imposing authority is only an illusion and is built by both sides using their real natural personal authority and a hidden subconsious belief that it is possible for our natural personal authority can be given away or to be taken or that it is possible for one "child"/fractal of Source to have an authority or power over another "child"/fractal of Source.

Anyway (inside anyway lol ). These are just some initial thoughts on this subject and if something is not clear feel free to ask about it and I'll try to clarify what I am trying to say or maybe become more clear myself about what I am trying to say, cause I am mostly thinking out loud and these ideas are a work in progress.

PS
And as a side-note and an example, I think I have understood correctly, that even Alenym doesn't have the sole authority and responsibility over this operation regarding Earth, but she has equal co-authority and co-responsibility of this project with the rest of the crew members. And in this operation/project she has assumed the responsibility of the tasks that the Queen of Taygeta and people of royal bloodline specialize in.   

PS2
I am not sure I fully understand this definition of moral and ethics but maybe a third "BOTH this -AND- that" version of an integration of morality and ethics is "you communicate the standard of behavior you follow yourself"?

PS3
One reason I am spending so much time in writing this is because this authority discussion is related to the forum group structure and especially the relationship between regular members and the members that have assumed the responsibility of moderating the forum and also related to the authority type between any other member. And if someone wants to discern if a member is behaving in an authoritarian type 2 way towards another member, you can pay attention to whether they are behaving(not what they are saying) in a way that shows that they recognize and respect the natural personal authority of the other member. (And as a side-note to Happy: I don't fully understand why "the most reliable discernment is whether you find reason to question the behavior or not." do you mean "whether you find reason to question the intent/motive of their behavior or not"?

And another reason I am spending so much time writing this is cause it is also related to sth that has been on my mind for quite sometime that I initially wrote here but decided to move it to it's own thread, cause it's related but another topic.

Druids, Merlin, Shamans, and prohibited knowledge destroyed by the Cabal - Athena Swaruu

Swaruu X (Athena): "We, the Swaruu´s, have been here for the better part of 12,000 years, never being human, but that makes us a bridge between the extraterrestrial and the human because we know both worlds well and can connect what happens outside the Earth with what happens inside. And few non-human races have that ability. The Taygetans try, but they have many problems."

So how do we imagine our way out of all those things?

It depends on, out of all the things that we can imagine, which ones we fully believe and know beyond the shadow of a doubt, TO BE POSSIBLE for us to BE, to HAVE or to DO.

So for example:

-- if we truly fully believe it/know it to be possible for us to teleport our "material" bodies, like little Yazhi, then when the boogie-men with the syringes come to force inject us, we'll just say "NO THANK YOU, sayonara b*tches" and disappear in front of their eyes.

(Not just consciously believe it but subconsciously too, if there is a part of us in the subconscious that doesn't believe it then we will feel it and we know deep inside that we don't fully believe it/know it)

-- if we truly fully believe it/know it to be possible for us to levitate material objects with only our thoughts and mind, then when the boogie-men with the syringes come, we will levitate them, but first we should close our nose cause we don't wanna smell the poop in their pants.

And since we are not little Yazhi and although we can imagine doing those things in our imagination, we don't believe it yet to be possible for us to do in the external material world. (Mainly because we still have the belief system/agreement/idea that the material and astral are not the same thing). So how do we imagine our way out of all those things?

We imagine all the ways that we fully believe/know are possible for us to do with our bodies here in the "external" "material" world, and then do them, create them, using our physical body actions that we are already masters of.

Like for example:

-- We can imagine and fully believe that it is possible to create and live a scenario where we escape to the woods when we hear that Gates is coming with a syringe in his hand.

-- We can imagine and fully believe that it is possible to create and live a scenario where  we find a doctor that will issue a fake certificate that we have healed from convid and we can have a free pass for 6 months.

-- We can imagine and fully believe that it is possible to create and live a scenario where we don't pay the fines and go to jail and meditate all day.

My point is there is absolutely no difference between us imagining and creating and living a scene  where we teleport away, and between us imagining and creating and living a scene where we escape through the back door to the woods. The only difference is that we fully believe that the second scenario is possible, while we don't believe it is possible for us to teleport our physical body.

"The only thing that is limiting us, is the idea(belief) that we are limited".

PS
Another way to put this is that there is absolutely no difference between us and little Yazhi. We are using the exact same creative god power that Yazhi is using to create and live her reality where she can teleport, move through solid matter etc. Yazhi is her imagination and living her imagination and so are we.

The only difference between us is that we are using our creative god power to imagine and create a different life than Yazhi, and we use it to imagine and create limitations and to create a life where we don't remember and have amnesia about those things. Like Yazhi says

"[...] And that includes bodies, bodies that, as you imagine them, you call that incarnation, and you imagine that you are trapped in a body for the duration of an incarnation, but that is illusory, it is also your creation, your ideas.[...]"

We are using the same god-power as Yazhi to imagine create and live that we are trapped in limited bodies with amnesia, and we are imagining and creating (subconsciously not consciously), that there is a veil and we can't remember how we are doing that and how to cancel that "

So my point is that our difference with Yazhi is NOT IN OUR ABILITY AND CREATIVE GOD-POWER , but IN WHAT WE ARE IMAGINING AND CREATING using that SAME creative god-power that we both have. We have the EXACT SAME creative god power with little Yazhi, we are just using it to create a life full of lack and limitations and a life where we have amnesia and where we don't remember how to cancel and stop creating that.

I like using the harry potter metaphor, where there are wizards that have magic abilities and moguls that don't have magic abilities. So when Yazhi is doing some impressive magic superpower spells, us mogul folk(both on the ground and in orbit), are in awe and some of us a bit jelly and wishing we could have them too and use them to bring down the cabals.

But what we don't understand that a powerful wizard is in awe of the moguls, because a true wizard knows that we are not moguls and that we are actively currently using powerful magic and powerful spells to suppress and limit our magic and are using a powerful spell of forgetting to forget that we are doing that so we believe that we are magic-less moguls. Why would we do that? One of the reasons is that that's the only way you can create and live the experience of being a puny magic-less little mogul human.

My point is, we are using the same creative god-power that Yazhi is using RIGHT NOW in this moment to create and maintain this experience of powerlessness lack and limitation. RIGHT NOW not WHEN WE ACTIVATE OUR DNA or WHEN WE REGAIN OUR POWER that we have lost, we are actively using our god-power right now, in every moment to keep our DNA from reactivating and to maintain the veil so we don't remember.   
   

(And of course understanding all this is not enough, we have to also live it, but even only understanding and realizing this is a huge step)

I loved part one. Did't know there is a part 2, can't wait.

This is one great answer to exactly what I was asking with those rhetorical questions. This is a very helpful map/model to what I am asking about and trying to understand better.

I believe the "I" with a capital "I" is what Yazhi is talking about in the last video.

(And I believe when Yazhi says here the unified field she doesn't mean Source, that's why she say that return to the unified field is not a dissolution of the Selt)

I am not in this "stage" yet but this "I" with a capital "I" is not that sacry to "me". It's actually kinda like a heaven and there is already an almost total liberation.

So I have some questions:

1. Do you agree that Yazhi is describing that "stage" in this video? And am I right in assuming that you don't need to "reach" the final step of realization of the absolute first in order to "reach" that state that Yazhi is talking about?

2. Using this map/model of the "I"s, which "stage" do you get at using ACIM? And when they say "Kingdom of Heaven" in ACIM do they mean what Yazhi is describing in the above transcript or is the "Kingdom of Heaven" the way everything is experienced(?)/happening after the final step?

(I haven't read the whole ACIM but by reading The Disappearence of the Universe, I got the impression that ACIM is for getting out of the physical "3D/5D" matrixes out of the physical universe/material universe, or Uxit to use Grivehn's very funny term, or is that just a stage in ACIM before the I-xit happens lol) 

3. And I understand that the final step just happens when it happens it's not done by the "I" or does it happen when the "I" is ready to let go of even the "I"? Can the "I" do that or does the "I" only need to have the sincere willingness to fully surrender and let go of even itself, and then it's out of it's hands?

4. And also I just remembered something Yazhi said once that really caught my attention cause I have never heard it anywhere else: that you can start creating again even after you completely merge with source. And that NOTHING is not the equivalent of total enlightenment but only half way. (And I remember hearing something similar in the Conversations with God material). What do you think about this?

(If this is how it is, this letting go of ABSOLUTELY everything is scary for the "I" but knowing that you can reemerge and create a new "I" and start all over again from scratch, makes it easier for the "I" to let go ABSOLUTELY everything and dissapear merging with Source)

These are a lot of questions again but I am posting them together cause they are related and you can get an idea about what I am trying to get at. I am interested in what you (or anyone else) have to say about about these when you find time.

COSMIC_CHICKEN_Vega

PS

Oh good, cause I was worried that the image of you in my mind might have missed the subtle play with words. And don't take this personally lol I am talking about the image of you in my mind not you the product of my mind.

(And just FYI I noticed the 1o 2o too )

Or is Robert369 trying to give us a subtle hint that you are secretly working for HRH The Queen... And I am not talking about Alenym, I am talking about Her Reptilian Highness The Queen... Everyone keep you eyes wide open...

If you were you'd probably find there are people  already in there and are grumpy about some very critical life and death detail, like for example Gosia's hair color choice, or the fact that Gosia writes her reply before the quote and not after......

@QUIETpuddle

*silent applause*

That was very beautifully written.

"I" pretend that "I" don't understand WHO wrote this and WHO am "I" applauding. Is there a point in "me" applauding if there is NOONE to applaud? 

So "I" take that applause back and "I" am gonna choose to see it as if this message wrote itself, it was just a happening and NOONE wrote it. Otherwise "I" run the risk of losing "my" mind(or should "I" say "I" run the risk of losing "my" "I") with all this nondual talk. lol Just like all the other non-dual spiritual teachers "I" try to avoid listening lol.

Why won't NOBODY leave "us" alone and let "us" play "our" illusions of duality. "I" am trying so hard to pretend that "I" don't understand what NOBODY is talking about. lol NOBODY is like "our" moms and dads yelling at "us" to stop playing "our" illusory games and DO NOTHING in the real world and just BE. The final attachments before liberation are the hardest to let go OK? So NOONE should leave "us" alone and let "us" play our illusion games just a while longer. The cosmic drama soap opera illusions can be fun to play for a while, until they are not. At least outside this reality bubble, cause this reality bubble is not very fun to play at this moment.

I just thought of something really funny

Just like we accuse each other from time to time here in this forum about who we suspect is behind some member names, I wanna officially claim that I suspect that there is NOONE behind the CHARCOtranquilo name. lol

That account just happened to create itself, and there is noone behind it writing these messages haha. And I strongly suspect that NOONE happened to infiltrate this forum and I am accusing NOONE that they may have an agenda of ruining our illusory cosmic soap opera games in our illusory cages.

Anyway, I haven't found time to continue talking to the quiet puddle about sth I bookmarked, and there is SOMEBODY named Grivehn I haven't replied to yet too, so I'll prioritize him cause at least he is SOMEBODY, as opposed to a bunch of nondual NOBODYs. Sigh... sorry if I overdo it with the jokes, I tire myself sometimes too with my joking monkey.

♥️

PS
And just FYI to all members, I am not crazy my mother had me tested, well not really but all this nondual talk is hard for "our" mind, and if I start talking to her like this maybe she will. lol

Here in Greece anyone over 60, that hasn't taken the first dose by Jan 16 will be fined 100€/month(and we are talking about a lot of people with pensions of 350/450€). I want through all the stages of grief in record time, this whole thing is so absurd and ridiculous. I saw some anger and reactions in social media even from people that are for the jab cause we are talking about people's old parents, grandparents, old aunts and uncles. And there are some protests planned.

But I am cautiously... pessimistic, it already seems it won't be stopped, and it will be like all the other extreme measures that people have submitted to and have gotten used to. The majority is still with their heads in the sand and pretend that they don't see what's happening in front of their eyes.

This will be taken to our version of the supreme court, let's see if they'll decide that it's unconstitutional.

But they is already talk about this being done for more age groups, and I predict that if the courts decide that it's unconstitutional because it targets only a specific group, they'll use that as an excuse to do it for all ages.

I knew that Austria was a really bad sign for Europe. I hear there is talk in Germany and in the euro(c)rats for mandatory vaxinations too. Things do not look good in the EU. I was against grexit back then, cause we are part of the eurozone and that would have been a financial disaster (I wasn't very awake back then yet), but now I wish we had grexited and were a poor failed state country.

At least this is a sign that the already huge pressure that the unmaxed are under (now you can't go to cinemas and other places even with a PCR test) isn't working.

So if you have any donuts in your fridge, eat them while you still can everyone cause the incentives don't seem to be working so they are switching to punishments. Instead of giving you a donut as an incentive now they are going to barge in your house and confiscate your donuts from your fridge if you don't get jabbed. And instead of giving you 50GB of free mobile data as an incentive maybe they'll decide to punish you with slowing down your internet connection to dialup era speeds. Or now that they are going to be stealing 100€ from little old ladies going to church, maybe they'll threaten that they are going to be stealing candy from our kids if we don't get jabbed.

(January 2017 Vega: What are arcturians... exopoliticts, that sounds interesting... channeling? What's that? Planetary ascension? What's that? Wow this is so cool and epic. And we got this, the hard part is over, we passed the 2012 mark and planetary ascension is locked, I don't understand why Teal Swan is such a negative Nancy about this when everyone else I follow is so positive and talks about how wonderful it is going to be...

Early 2020 Vega: Umm... Excuse me... Dear higher self, dear spirit guides, I know you are there behind the Forget-Belt(tm)... But what the actual fuck is this shit? Where are all the unicorns and rainbows, I guess I see some rainbows from time to time but what about the unicorns, I have yet to see one? Is it because I haven't decalcified my pineal gland?

I took one red pill and now you are telling me that I have to take another one cause apparently Morpheus is in another matrix too? OK fine I'll swallow this one but it better be the last one, I want to see some unicorns damn it. Sigh...)

Anyway let's see if this will be enough for people to get their heads out of the sand and face what's happening.
