Welcome Living creature to the Earth. Congratulations! You are now separate from everything that you were before. Don't remember? Good you are not supposed to. Exciting isn't it? Scary? Just for a while until you get used to it. But don't worry you will get used to it. It's a little uncomfortable going from being part of everything to knowing almost nothing but don't worry your one of the lucky ones. You're Here! The ones that came before you have made your turn just a little bit easier just as you will help to make the turns that come after you a bitter easier. It used to be a lot harder so be glad it took us a long time to get to this point.
You’re going to need some help starting off but you have already shown that you are qualified because you are here so take comfort knowing that you beat out billions just like you to get to right where you are. You are a winner! And you will always be a winner as long as you want to be. All you have to do is want it. As long as you "want" you will be fine. Why? Well because wanting leads you to grow and growing will turn you into what you can be. I built into your system this desire factory to keep you on the right path. While you follow your wants you will be following the one most important rule that will keep you here. Call it the prime directive. What's the rule? BE YOURSELF. Doesn't sound that difficult does it? It's harder than it sounds. Why? Because you are not alone here. There are others. Some are similar to you and some are not. They are also winners like you. And they are trying to be themselves also. They also want what you want and some times you both can't have it. Its called competition. This is why you will form groups so that you can work together to get what you want. But groups are not you and you are going to have to pretend that you are not yourself to get what you want. It’s called compromise. These groups are called families, tribes, religions, nationality, races, schools, employment, language, gender, etc. You see already you broke the first rule: you are not yourself! You stopped being yourself to get what you wanted but you broke the first rule. Okay, don't worry you have a built-in "self forgetter" that allows you to forget who "you" are called your unconscious mind it will help you convince the others that you are not yourself and that you are part of their group. Everyone has this but since we all forget it, it works fine. This is important because when you are part of a group you can more easily get what you want remember. If you were aware of this all the time you would come across as dangerous to groups and you would kill your chances at using them for their advantages. The problem is that when you are part of a group you have to use their rules and these rules are not always in your best interest. Families, religions, employers, Nationalities they all want you to act according to their rules. They will tell you things like: We don't eat with our hands, We can't eat meat on Fridays, You must believe this or you will go to hell, You have to support us, you must pay your taxes, or membership dues, etc. The thing about groups is that they are useful but limiting. Groups like everything else are just a tool in the great game of life. Just don't forget this point or you will forget that you are "you" which is rule number one; remember "be yourself-just do it when you are alone." Groups want you to work for them more than you work for you. Some groups have gone so far as to ask you to die for them. They will convince your "you forgetter" that it's noble and wonderful and manly and honorable to die for the group. They call this loyalty and make a real big deal about it. And they are right. It's everything they say but do you want to check out of the dance? If not, stay away from that kind of thinking. They will even show you others that did so as heroes of the group. Unless you are ready to go back to where you came from and you want to stop being "you" don't go down this road. The choice is up to you. Being you is fun. If you’re not having fun your are doing it wrong! Remember life is just a game it can be fun if you play it right.
Don't think that groups are all against you either, they are not. Everyone in a group is just like you. In fact this letter is for them also so just remember that. No one is more important than another but some will be more favored than others especially if they want something more than the others. This goes for you too. So if you really want something figure out how to get it or how to do it. There will be this idea called fairness. Every one who loses will want it. Winners will not. Beware of people who want fairness they are the ones that want groups. This is because they have not yet learned how to win on their own. Winning is getting what you want. There will be times when getting what you want means someone else won't. They will say its not fair and they will want to be part of a group that will work for fairness. Use groups like a tool but don't get so attached that you lose yourself. Learn about reciprication its a way to trade unlike things that have different values so that your interactions pay off for you and the rest.
Earlier I said follow your wants. That's mostly true but the problem is choosing what you want. When you figure out how to determine what you really want you will have reached a very desirable stage in the dance. It's at this point that clarity will begin and when you will see that everything I have said so far is true. Choosing what you want is confusing because you first start off knowing what you want but then you will learn to use groups to get it. But slowly you will forget what you originally wanted because the group will be so important to you. You will trade what you want for something completely foreign. Then you will get what you think you want but you will then discover it wasn't what you wanted but rather what the group said you should want. This will leave you wondering what is going on? Why didn't getting what you wanted satisfy you? The answer is not as complicated as it seems: you compromised and forgot what your really wanted and you put what the group wanted in its place. This will make you ask questions which at first will make you feel bad because the group has taught you to feel bad when you question the group. They call it morality, guilt, ethics, etc. But after you discover a few things on your own you will get stronger and dare to ask harder and more painful questions. You might even find your self leaving the group mentally while physically still pretending to be part of it. Take your time at this point. This is the time to gather information and reflect what you really know versus what you have been taught to believe. Question everything you learn from a group because every group has its own rules. Some is true some is not. You will discover that it's incredible how much you believe that you really don't know. It's painful. You might even wish you hadn't reached this point many times because the comfort level is now gone. I don't recommend getting mad. Everything you are against weakens you. Focus on what you want instead it strengthens you. Learn to negotiate and navigate in groups this will lead you to great pleasure. You might even want to start a group against the other group yourself (see how this works), But don't, if you push through it you will discover yourself again. After all discovering yourself is the most fun part of becoming all that you can be. This is what you were made for. It's really a lot of fun.
I have prepared for you inside your life a guidance tool kind of like a compass. You will know it as pain and pleasure. Pain is how you will avoid going down paths that will not get you where you should be. But just like a compass only shows you the general directions pain and pleasure only do the same. In life you will have to go East and West sometimes to go North or South because there will not be any roads to take. It's the same with the pain and pleasure compass. You will have to go through some pain to get to your pleasure. This is called resistance. It's built into the dance. The best way to get to your goal is to focus on driving not the destination. But make sure you’re on the right path. But don't think that just because you are going through pain you are going the right way. Some groups believe this! This is because many times competition provides resistance so people mistakenly think that resistance means competition and generally competition means that there is stuff others want and you might want it too. Sometimes pain just means someone needs to build a road here. Maybe you can build that road? When you master using your pain and pleasure compass you will learn to drive you mind. Avoiding pain and obtaining pleasure will be a great source of motivation. In fact it is for every living creature with a brain. Your mind is the vehicle that I have given you to navigate and enjoy the ride. It's a great tool but you will not know how to drive it correctly for a long time. Some people never learn. They stay on the group side of the dance. They will make the world a better place for you and those like you. Don't hold this against them. You might actually be one for a very long time. It's not a bad thing. Some plants never flower, and it’s fine. Its all in correct order. When you think that you have gotten really good at driving your mind be careful you don't think you have mastered it. Make sure it's not the group that's making you think that. We can call the group "culture". When you are a huge success in the eyes of the World you will have reached a point where you think you're really good at self control and driving your mind, that's when you need to get away and reflect on whether you are really following your own road or the road of the group. Also, remember what ever is good for you will be good for those that come after you. Just like you showed up into a better world than the ones before you, it is this process we use to make this a better place.
I need to tell you about rules. Rules are patterns that make boundaries. That's it and nothing more. Boundaries are what make you "YOU". When you stop being you all boundaries cease. I use boundaries to separate everything into itself. However remember that rules are just tools to make the game. They are arbitrary. Rules are everywhere. Some call them the laws of physics, others call them commandments, some call them law. Groups love rules. I use rules but I never make a rule that I can't un-make, or break. That's just the way I am. I don't like to limit myself. If you want to have some fun, make up some of your own rules. Just don't take them too seriously or you will regret it. Or a group will form around them and soon you guys will be forgetting who you are.
Okay, you’re thinking this all sounds too good right. You just can't wait to get out there and be all that you can be. Great that's what I am hoping for but here is the catch. When it's all over and you come back to join infinity everything you did, thought, felt and created stays here on this side. You can't take any of it with you. You are just playing a character in the dance of life. When it’s over you will be right back where you came from enjoying the view from my side. You will not remember any of it from your point of view. You see "You" will be no more, instead you will wake up and be ME again after you merge back to the great Everything. Infinity and beyond. You will just simply love all of it. You will enjoy every single molecule of it knowing that you are building the most beautiful art work and you will love it all equally. No group will be more favored. No individual will be more favored. You will just keep watching more individuals in all their glorious forms develop and grow and add to the beautiful creation. Magnitude and beauty and glory and life in its entire glorious splendor will continue as You/God unraveling and revealing. You are the creation, the creators great dream, it's no artificial illusion "You" are here but "you" are playing a game with and against yourself. You have been doing this for eternity getting better and better as time passes. You are the Great Creator, you take many forms and you do it all at the same time. You started with the simple and you made it complex. You started with no rules and you brought order to chaos. Then you returned it to chaos again. You are the Earth,
Go have fun kids!
