Only the free alliance of Silent Awakened Individuals living within the One
and Many can change any of this.
How are we to remain opened and here? Can this be life on Earth, a life in
which we are opened to the vivid immanence of all beings and each other in all
parts of time and shared human space?
When consciousness ceases to be a problem, the circle of presence in time, in
actuality, does close by opening, opening in true mutual regard and affinity,
both beings meeting without resistance or demand. Mutual presence is Life
affirming Life, entirely individual and whole in itself, yet mysteriously one
in the original state of Being and Awareness. We-awareness Is.
The Silent Individual is in a state of total listening, which is the state of
total reception of the entire field of perception as a unity, the undistorted
appearance of the whole world in its actuality within the awareness space of
We-here-and-One.
There is the complete absence of editing, identifying, comparing, analyzing,
comodifying, which is merely paranoia posing as thinking. The Silent
Individual is made intelligent and wise by affinity and the Will-to-Life
rather than to power.
Self-awareness consummates itself in We-awareness within the One. The Silent
Self-awareness space openly meets the totality of the others’ familiar and
mysterious presence. The responding in this state of deep, energy-filled
silence is always true to the affinitive essence of the Other.
When first the few, and then the many, awaken, Living Culture is born within
the formless womb of the One. When this comes into being in the World, as it
inevitably will, the whole environment of Civilization will foster, encourage
and provoke wakeful awareness in all citizens. The Silent Individual living in
the Mystery of the One and Many will be the vision to which the whole of
humanity will actively aspire, and, thus, true freedom and real democracy will
come to all humanity.
We are contemplating the most radical revolution in the exoteric history of
the Earth. This revolution, destined to spread all over the Earth, arises into
manifestation from within the One. This revolution is more far-reaching and
radical than the Christianizing of the Roman Empire or the tumultuous spread
of Islam or the Industrial capitalist revolution or the Communist revolution
or the Techno-economic global revolution of today.
This peaceful revolution is the natural, compassionate response of Aware-awake
Individuals to the dire chaos spreading throughout the world, oppressed by
will-to-power and money wars, peopled by separate self non-entities in
de-sensitized torment.
This peaceful revolution, destined to spread all over the Earth, arises into
manifestation from within the One.
We come like lambs, but we are also lions. We come to question whoever
pretends to arbitrate how much of Man’s whole being may appear real in the
everyday world where all humans meet. We come to render abrogate every profane
organization and non-entity that would disrupt the sacred meeting of humanity
on Earth. We-awakened within the One, we have begun to transform the
delusional paradigms of the world into the deep spiritual knowledge that heals.
It is our destiny to be here in this time when the only potent answer to the
world’s problems is a spiritual state of awareness called “We-awareness within
the Mystery of One and Many”. This has always been the answer and always will
be the answer. How could it be anything else when “there is no religion or law
higher than this truth”?

It's Christmas time, but you wouldn't know it, walking along the streets, riding on the subway - well, except for the (slightly) intoxicated Newfie who was yelling out yesterday, with a big smile, "Merry Christmas!" and providing a boisterous running commentary on how cold, detached and paranoid Torontonians (or, should we say, separate self non-entities) are. He said that by the looks on all of our faces, it was clear that Santa wouldn't be leaving us any gifts, because clearly we had been really bad this year. He could see that I was actually listening to what he was saying, instead of looking irritated or mildly amused, or pretending he wasn't there, and in our short conversation, we managed to share some positive energy and exchanged sincere wishes with each other for well-being over the holidays and in the New Year. He may have been a little loopy (okay, maybe really loopy), but it was the most real exchange I had had with a stranger in a long time. As one person, the only way to effect any real change in the macrocosm, in the world as a whole, is to change how you function in your microcosm, how you relate to others on a day-to-day basis, to become aware of what kind of energy you are sharing with them, and, in return, to insist, as a spiritual being, on being treated with respect and not being inflicted with someone else's bad attitude or poisonous vibe. There is so much more that I could say - this piece of writing brings up so many important issues and inspires so many thoughts - but I hope that other members will come by and share their thoughts and ideas as well. |

This is an amazing piece of writing, deep and true, with a wide scope. I have often looked at the world around me and wondered where we have gone wrong and how we can change it. Thank goodness that in discovering Spiritual Realism, "We-Awareness", I am finally giving up my misanthropy and seeing the actual, palpable potential in human beings for positive change, for goodness. It isn't always easy: at work I want to make the attempt to meet the people I am serving as individual spiritual beings, but they either don't really want to be met (either because they are too busy or self-consumed) or they don't want to make the effort of seeing or treating me as an individual spiritual being. I mean, if they actually acknowledged me as a spiritual being, they wouldn't be able to get away with treating me with disinterest, disdain and/or disrespect. This seems to be one of the plagues of our modern capitalist society. We can so easily trample psychically and vibrationally over people we don't know, and often in our personal lives we get away with doing it to the people we profess to care about.
