Since I finished the first book I’ve taken some time to look around and see what information is out there. Everywhere I look I see disclaimers about everyone using “Their Discernment” as they read and listen to ascending information. I think everyone knows how the dictionary defines this word, but how do you apply that to information that pushes the envelope of our current reality?
A person that has recently awakened has a voracious appetite for new knowledge. Knowing whether the information they read is accurate is difficult at first because all of the concepts are new and undefined. After a period of time however the outline of a puzzle picture begins to form and you then start looking for the pieces that fit within it to complete the picture you are seeking. This is the puzzle of your reality construct and you have assembled it based upon what you have been taught and what you have accepted as true.
Almost all of what you read out there is filtered through the personal perspective of the writer, including what you are reading now. Picking through the personal embellishments and incorrect information is like assembling a a puzzle in the dark; you have to feel around the edges of both pieces with your consciousness and decide for yourself if they fit together within your understanding.
This is my personal perspective of the awakening journey so now I will ask you; How did that resonate? Did you use your personal discernment to see if my information fit within the boundaries of your experiences? This is an obvious and easy exercise because the information above is merely a perspective and does not challenge the edges of anyone’s reality puzzle by providing shocking new information. As your journey continues however you will begin to find information that challenges the edges of your reality puzzle and you are then forced to make a decision. Do I expand my puzzle to encompass this new discovery? Or do I discard it because it does not fit within what I have already accepted? It is here that the all encompassing word ‘Discernment’ comes into play.
Within the teachings that originate from unity there will always be a thread of truth that weaves them together. The embellishments of perspective then grow around the basic truth like rock candy on a string, but the truth is still there at the core holding all of the information together. I provided an example of this fact just the other day when I offered a scientific understanding of an analogy from a Swami. I loved his sentiments and nothing he said was untrue. All I did was reinforce and add to his work. This is the feeling around the edges I am speaking of. Truthful information fits with other information and creates a larger picture for you to see the Universe you live within.
The laws that define the material constructs and the energy realms of this Universe are really quite simple. They utilize repeating patterns that build upon themselves because they work and form the foundation of everything. Let us be honest here, consciousness desires to stay occupied and avoid boredom. Consciousness is also intelligent and does not create unneeded complexity ‘just because it can’. If it works it is used repeatedly, PERIOD.
Using the concept of putting the pieces together that fit, you begin to create a foundation of understanding. We all start with the accepted science of atomic structures, molecular interactions, planetary rotations, electrical theories and so on. All of these theories fit together like puzzle pieces. A sphere with a rotating geometry of particles that form and change as the electrical charges are manipulated. This is simplicity in action and an obvious repetition becomes visible as you observe the totality of it. You then begin to expand upon that hard won knowledge of our material construct and begin to add the variable of consciousness. This is where the puzzle becomes fuzzy because this is the limit of our current understanding.
It is up to each individual to use the thread of truth to sew their personal reality together as they feel the edges of the pieces of information being published by the awakening population. If it fits, add it to your puzzle and expand the edges of your reality.
