Thought...

The fastest medium you can ever know, measure and experience. Thoughts travel in no time; Or thoughts are in-time. The presence of intelligence is always now – and thoughts are the rivulet of that intelligence. Like the buzz from a bumble-bee. It's faster than light, well, we are living in the space of information and energy – so, thoughts move as fast as the monkey that is swinging in the chambers of your mind – that’s the power of being in space, being in the present, of in and no-time.
Einstein said: Everything is energy and that is all that is. I concur. Everything is in flux, everything is in momentum. Everything mutually arises. But, also, the physicist John Wheeler shared that everything is Information. I agree with that too. So, I personally believe, everything is information powered by Energy. Thought patterns driving its energetic vibration.
The power of thought is the ability – where Power comes from the Latin word Podere, to transform all. We are the embodied energy that holds the universality of thought. We can tune to all frequencies that the universe operates in, but our minds protect us from that influx to suit what we need – and that’s where conditioning plays its part. Instead of the natural stream of consciousness, thought – space – thought – space - thought, we are met by the burden of the information tempest.
Children are more aware than adults in their presence and feelings – they think, pause and then act. They wonder, but not incessantly to seek an answer, they dream and believe – they are still connected to source, they are really thoughtFUL.
Now, linguistically:
Thought is the product of thinking; to think – Thankjan (Old English) – to seem, to appear. To perceive. To conceive. To meditate. To remember.
So, what seems to appear to you: your reality, your perception is your thinking. All that you see in the external is a result of your thinking.
Now, take the power of thought – which is the meat of your belief systems, as you believe what you don’t understand or see. One simple example is the way we embrace the weekend, when it bestows upon us.
The weekend is just like any other day on the calendar, but for us, it’s the time when we “think” we are free:
Now, what does free mean? To not be obligated. We have picked one or a couple of days of the week, where we see them as freedom days, as opposed to slaves for work during the week. You can even work on the weekend, but it still feel less whelming than during the week. The program, rooting from thought, of this weekly conditioning reflects deeply into our bodies (the allowance to rest) and our external reality.
But, the root meaning of freedom comes from the old English word of Freodom. A combination of free and dom. Where free roots deeper into the Indo-European word of Pri, meaning to love. Dom relates to a state or a house-hold. So, freedom is the household of love – the state of love. Where bondage is exempt. How beautiful is that?
Therefore, the root meaning of freedom can be traced back to the idea of being able to act according to one’s own will and desires, without being subjected to external control or coercion. To make one’s own choices and decisions.
Freedom is the ability to think and act naturally. So, we can think that a day we can be free and others not. The reality, you are always free, but your availability (time and energy) is related to how you see it: Obligation or opportunity.
Our belief systems filter, process and run (by influencing action) our lives, as we don’t think about them. It becomes automatic. So, to change your life, we start with changing the content of the belief system – the thought we build our lives around.
In previous chapters we talked about grounding, which makes the understanding of information practical – to ground/anchor your thoughts in your body. To align thinking with being, to smoothen the doing – to experience.
I don’t believe you can control your thinking, this will only agitate the monkey within and will increase its frantic ways. How can you control the flow of information in the ether? That’s what overthinking is about – insanity to attend and assess to all that goes though in our cranium and beyond.
The way to regulate the thinking process, is by taming the animal – the body – the monkey mind – by observance and creating space... Space, all resides within, nothing is out of space, space is infinity, infinity is intelligence, so to create space, is to become more “infinite”/”Intelligent” More depth about this is in previous topics.
Regulation allows brain waves to be more coherent, which dissipates its chaotic manner into a more orderly one. This allows more coherence with the heart and then there’s inner peace from that. Trying to control is to stress the system. The system is already intelligent enough to run itself, the same way that this same system regulates your internal functions, without you telling it.
Can you ground in this? Root in this? As then, what's irrelevant will automatically transmute back to the bigger mind of the ether and the attached energies to it, will be recycled by the bigger body of the earth. This is what grounding means – we have a lot of unprocessed protons (positive energy), so it needs to be circulated back into the crust of earth – which is negatively charged.
This is the beaty of surrender, is to truly THINK that you are grand by remembering all of this, and cascade it into all parts of the psyche. This is the realization of it.
The awakening. The reclamation. Then, instead of solving whatever problems, transformation, improvement is needed, it’s all activated by your own intelligence, you don’t need to go on chasing those “improving desires”, you just cultivate this intelligence within you and it will bring about peace which is the grandest thing we need as humans. We need inner peace to, to love our own personal and collective insecurities and ally together on this evolutionary path. Think, act and become. Observe and repeat.
Then, you’re connected to your inner matrix, and you become so understanding and aware of what's within, you see and experience it in the outer world. It all start with thought, you can turn any event from an obligation into an opportunity, just by the way you view it. Be authentic.
Concluding this part with mindful statements:
A word is a thought expressed linguistically. Action is words in motion. So, your words have an energetic charge to them. That’s where meditating serves the mind, for the thinking machine to be aware of its own thinking.
“To acquire knowledge one must study; to acquire wisdom, one must observe.” Marilyn vos Savant
Drop the veil of “I’ve got it all together”; you don’t, nor will you. Until you let it all fall apart to create that union.
Homecoming is truth-becoming – in your sensitivities, insecurities and vulnerabilities that’s the way to your heart. The transition. The 18-inch journey from the head to the heart.
How much are you paying outside of yourself, for your inner poverty and negligence?
The poverty within, is distrust without. And it goes on and on.
Seneca – The Roman Philosopher: "To be everywhere is to be nowhere". Cease to hope, to trust, you will cease to face fear. Cease countless desires to curb hopeful and wishful thinking.
Hecato, the Greek philosopher said: “What progress have I made, I am beginning to be my own friend”. Suffering allows you to know yourself – by the design of your grander/higher self.
Socrates - “The unexamined life is not worth living.” The natural art of contemplation and mediation that we are equipped with, is our gateway to deeper and higher realms of realization and consciousness. To truly observe is to the route to wisdom.
From my heart to yours, Peace in and Peace out.
