Musings of a Spiritual Warrior

22 December 2005

Another month plus has passed.  It is amazing how fast time is going by these days.  I'm still busier than ever at work.  There is just not enough time to do everything that I might want to do.  Also, it doesn't help that I am exhausted by the time that I leave work.  Over the past few days, I've been moved to read the best quotes from the 2002 Musings.  I was once again amazed by the quality of the work that came forth.  Reading these passages, it dawned on me that they should indeed reach a larger audience than they have reached to date and they should have a profound impact on people.  As I write this the song Let there be Peace on Earth, and let it begin with me plays in the background.  It is very moving to me.  It is a sort of theme song.

Spirit expresses here as she does nowhere else.  There is something special and magical about that.  The process began in March of 1993, over 12 years ago.  The quantity of expression has varied dramatically during that time, from hours per day to nothing for entire months.  Oh well, it is what it is.  There have been enough words brought forth that it literally takes months to read them all.  That is saying a lot in and of itself.  All that has come forth is available here at the Beyond Imagination site.  From the beginning, I knew that this was something that was coming forth from source, from spirit, through me.  As such, it was something that I was strongly moved to share and share freely.  There is nothing hidden.  There is no code to decipher.  Though, I have not been moved to find the intended audience for this expression.  If you build it, they will come!  I built the Beyond Imagination site to house the expression.  And, people did come, but not in the numbers that I thought they might.  Also, the feedback was far more limited than I imagined it would be.  My hope was to find kindred spirits ... members of my spiritual family.  But, this did not really happen.  Part of this is my hermit nature.  Yet, I openly invite communication and feedback.

Am I crazy?  Perhaps.  But then, we're all a little crazy in some aspects of our lives.  Normal is an arbitrary statistical grouping.  Being normal is not necessarily good in any way.  I take pride in being different, in being unique.  I know that we are all unique expressions of spirit.  What we do with our special gifts is our choice.  Some people choose to stuff them away.  Others freely express them.  Still others fall on the spectrum in between these extremes.  We are given our gifts for a purpose.  They are to be used in service in some manner.  This is not something that has to be difficult.  It is meant to be a natural expression.

Consciousness is ever on my mind.  She is ever expressing through me.  Yes, she.  That is how I experience her anyway.  It matters not that my form is male in this existence.  How do I know what to write next?  I don't know.  I just allow whatever will be expressed to come forth ... trusting that it will be appropriate.  To date, this process has not failed me.  It has resulted in a large body of expression that continues to move me to this day.  And not just some of it ... all of it!  That says a lot as well.  One of my greatest challenges has been to come up with concepts of self, Self, and SELF that enable me to accommodate what is expressed here and how it is expressed.  The bottom line is that there is far more to us as individuals than we are consciously aware.  Further, there is incredible cooperation occurring behind the scenes to allow us to create the reality that we experience.  Spirit is subtle yet persistent.  She moves us to do what we are meant to do, if only we will listen to her gentle guidance.  Life is not meant to be difficult ... though there is nothing wrong with a good struggle or challenge now and then.  The bottom line is that we create it all, every aspect, every detail ... no fine print, no exceptions.  That means there is meaning to be found in the details as well as the generalities.  I don't pay much attention to details much of the time.  My head is often in the air, my spirit soaring to new heights.  There is a sense that I am still a stranger here, a stranger in a strange land.  I don't understand what it is that moves others.  My knowledge of others is limited at best.  Is it time for that to change?  Or, are there others like me that I just haven't found?  I consider myself to be a transcendentalist, in the spirit of Emerson, Thoreau, and Channing.  Surely, there are other transcendentalists out there.  What am I willing to do to find those whom I am meant to work with?  Do I have to do anything?  Is it not enough to be whom that I am, do as I am moved by spirit to do, and allow the play to unfold as it will ... including meeting and interacting with those that the play calls into my life.

But, what about intent?  What about the idea that we are to consciously choose what we want to experience?  The sense is that this is fine for some, perhaps even many.  However, for some reason, it is not the way that I am meant to live.  Spiritual purpose is the focus of my life.  I was going to say, enough that I would give up my individuality for it.  Interesting, especially coming from one who is essentially a hermit.  We have said many times that we would express what spirit would express through us.  It is not what I would do, but what she would do through me that is the greatest gift that I can offer the world.  On my own, I am limited.  As an instrument for spirit, I am unlimited ... because that is the nature of spirit.  How do I know what she would have me do?  It is simply a matter of stepping down, resigning my will to Thy Will, and allowing what would come forth to come forth.  Thus far, that is how it has been anyway.  It is not clear that this is to change anytime soon.  And, why would I want it to change?  There is an exhilaration that comes from serving spirit.  There is a special high unlike that which comes from anything else.  Here, there is the sense that I am being all that I can be.  The creative expression is phenomenal.  Also, there is a sense of joy that comes from giving of myself in this manner.  One might ask, then why are there breaks that exceed a month some times?  Good question.  My only explanation is that there are cycles, even acyclic ones.  There is an inflow and an outflow.  The expression is an outflow.  Somehow it needs to be balanced by what I take in.  However, the bottom line is that there are spans of time when I am not moved to come here to express.  There is nothing wrong with this.  It is just how it is.

I was moved to re-read the Beyond Imagination book over the past week.  It blew me away once again.  There is so much material packed into that 100 page work.  There are so many ideas regarding creating the foundations for a new world.  Why is it that so few people have found that work, or choosen to buy Beyond Imagination: The Early Works?  Can that have really been written over 12 years ago?  Actually, the 12 year anniversary of its completion was two days ago.  The bulk of that work was done over a few month period.  That was clearly a special time in my life.  It was just after my first manic period, and an extensive manic period that was, spanning most of the year.  October 1 marked the 12 year anniversary of my first visit to the mental hospital.  Yes, I was in need of help.  But, I still don't believe that I truly got the help that I needed ... other than quieting my mind and giving me the time off from work necessary to integrate what I was experiencing.  It is not clear that we've come much further.  I was hoping that by now there would be "hospitalization" available for "spiritual emergency".  For, that is exactly what I experienced, the emergence of spirit from within me.  I knew that as it was happening.  However, few in my world seemed to know or acknowledge what was happening.  Then again, it is not like there are many people in my world.  I have lived a very sheltered and solitary life.  But, are there any regrets?  I wonder.  Have I truly lived the life that I might have lived?  Or, is the very way that I have lived what enabled me to experience what I did in the way that I did?

Once again, there is a sense that I should be doing more, a sense that I am not being all that I can be, a sense that I am not living my life as fully as I could.  But, what am I going to do about it.  Write!  That is your forte.  Allow spirit to express through you as she will.  Give her every opportunity.  Invite her to play an even greater role in your life than she already does.  You have more free time than you know.  Written expression is it for you.  It will make you happier than anything else that you do.  So, do it.  Quit making excuses.  It is only through engaging in this expression that you can see what can come forth.  And, by observing and consuming what comes forth, you ingest the inputs that challenge what you know yourself to be.  You only get tired when you are bored.  It is time to choose to escape the boredom.  Engage your talents fully.  It is not clear that your work will ever enable you to do this.  There is a reason for that.  Work is how we exchange our services for our livelihood.  This expression is not "work" for you.  Yes, it occupies your energies and your time.  However, this is re-creation for you, creative expression at its highest.  There is a chance that you could be paid for it someday.  However, there is also a chance that what you express is simply ahead of its time and awaits an audience that exists in what you know to be the future.  Interesting.  Something feels right about all of this.  I have no reason to question it.  Also, I have no ties to any particular outcomes.  I am open to my life playing itself out as it will in accord with whatever spirit would move me to be and to do.

Wow.  It has been awhile since this much has been brought forth.  We'll have to see whether it is an anomaly or a habitual thing.  With the holidays coming, it could easily be the former.  Oh well.  We do what we can when we can.  That is all that is asked of anyone.  In many ways, I expect a lot of myself.  However, I don't impose my expectations on others.  Each of us marches to the beat of our own drummer.  Though, it seems that some beats are much more similar than others.

1957 words.  There is no way that we can get that close to 2000 and not exceed it.  Hmm ... 19 x 103.  This comes across as 13:Death tied to 0:Source and 91 = 78 + 13: Death Exalted.  That is clearly a number for transformation of a major order.  That reminds me.  Driving to town from our cabin in Idyllwild we passed many big crows sitting on a fence.  They flew away as we passed by them.  Crows are a sign of major change as well.  Hmm ... 1957 was the year that I was conceived, the year before I was born.  Yes, numbers still have importance in my life.  I don't think that a day goes by when I don't notice something meaningful from this domain.  Yes, it is a domain.  Actually, more a hidden world that is revealed step by step.

That brought us all the way to 2101.  But, there is no sense that we are to stop here.  There is more that would be expressed this day.  That comes from an inner sense, not from any knowledge of just what lies in store.  So, let the voice continue.  We are just about to enter the year 2006, a Z=26 year.  That means that the Y=25 year is about to expire.  Have we answered the question WHY during this year?  My sense is no, we haven't.  We had the potential to do so, but somehow did not achieve this ... at least not in the outer planes of existence.  Why?  Hmm ... the 00:Source Doubled has something to do with this.  There are eight years of this nature following 2000 which had Source Tripled, namely 2001 through 2009.  2005 is the halfway point in this period.  It will be curious to see what 27, 28, and 29 bring.  The Tarot may give us a clue.  These are the Ace of Wands = New Start in the Field of Spirit, the Two of Wands = The Man with the World in His Hand, and the Three of Wands.  The later is not so easy to understand.

27 = 3 x 3 x 3.  28 = 2 x 2 x 7.  29 = 10th Prime.  This is the first prime past the alphabet.  A funny and curious memory came to mind from my grade school days.  I was asked to count from 1 to 1000.  The teacher couldn't believe how quickly I was done.  I still remember writing 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,900,1000.  I don't know what I was thinking, but that is what I did.  Note: there are 28 numbers in that sequence, 29 if you add 2000 to the end.  So what if we use these to count by rather than the normal sequence of counting by ones.

A   B   C   D   E    F   G   H   I  
1    2    3   4    5    6    7   8    9

 J     K    L    M    N    O    P    Q    R
10   20   30   40   50   60   70   80   90

S      T      U      V      W      X      Y      Z      <sp>
100   200  300  400   500   600   700   800   900

<28>         <29>
1000          2000

Does this give us a system that tells us anything useful.  For one thing, each cycle of 9 takes us to another dimension.

WAYNE = 500 + 1 + 700 + 50 + 5 = 1256 = 8 x 157

ELLIS = 5 + 30 + 30 + 9 + 100 = 174 = 6 x 29

HARTMAN = 8 + 1 + 90 + 200 + 40 + 1 + 50 = 390 = 30 x 13

JR = 10 + 90 = 100

TOTAL =  1256 + 174 + 390 + 100 = 1920 = 48:The Man in Search of More x 40:Page of Cups

The only difference between my name and my dad's is the JR at the end.  Hmm ... my dad did not become a SR until I was born and named.  S instead of J adds 90 to the total bringing us to 2010, that is only five years away.  It is curious that a "mistake" that I remember from grade school would re-enter my awareness now.

2010 = 30:Utopia on Earth x 67:Knight of Pentacles

How I love playing with numbers and looking for meaning in new ways.  This is what I am meant to be doing somehow.  I know that.  Further, each "tool" that I uncover allows my mind to reveal that much more.

GENEVIEVE = 7 + 5 + 50 + 5 + 400 + 9 + 5 + 400 + 5 = 886

MAE = 40 + 1 + 5 = 46

BUDDINGH = 2 + 300 + 4 + 4 + 9 +  50 + 7 + 8 = 384

TOTAL = 886 + 46 + 384 = 1316 = 13:Death 16:The Tower

GINI = 7 + 9 + 50 + 9 = 75

HARTMAN = 390

TOTAL = 465 = 3 x 5 x 31

1920 + 75 = 1995
1920 + 465 = 2385 = 5 x 477 =  3 x 5 x 159 = 3 x 3 x 5 x 53

I AM THAT I AM THAT YOU ARE!   Be Happy and Create Well!

LOVE,

Wayne
