On Ownership and Possession

Ownership and possession are illusory concepts that are intended to help remind Spirits in the Material World of the exact opposite:  detachment.

A person can only own or possess a "thing" (another illusory concept of Our own creation) as far as he or she can take it with him or her into the "next world." The same goes for human-manufactured entities such as "nations" or "corporations" (which, in and of itself, is an interesting corruption of the potentiality for truth in language as "corporations"--which contains the root word "corpus" meaning "body"--have no bodies) as they can, in truth, own or possess nothing (without forceful policing) as they can most certainly not take any thing with them when the pass. For example, what possessions can "nations" such as Babylonia, Nubia, Phrygia, Atlantis, Carthage, Phoenicia, Scythia, Pandya, Mohenja-Daro, Harappa, Zhou, Han, Qin, Anasazi, Inca, Aztec, Byzantium, Ottoman Empire or even Swabia, Burgundy, Savoie, Liguria, Catalan, Yugoslovia, Siam, Prussia, Biafra, Tibet, Mongolia, or The Soviet Union still claim to possess? These nations (as well as the billions of humans who lived in their eras of governance) are dead, nonexistent (except in historical recreation) and cannot possess, manipulate or protect their material (or intellectual) "possessions."
     Thus, Russia or China cannot "steal" a possession of any other country insofar as no other country (or person) can own or possess a thing. Heck! The "thing" itself is unpossessable as it is a construct, a fabrication, a make-believe item that comes from a certain reality that a majority of us choose to share, buy into, succumb to. So let go of elections and leaders, drones and submarines, information and ideas, lives and constructs as they are all illusional creations of our own Collective Mind. Use things to remind you of the nothing that you take with you when you die, use ideas as a reminder of the mercurial creative power alive within each and every mind, use beliefs as reminders of the systems of understanding we had as infants, as members of pre-Columbian tribes, as Romans or Druids or Israelites, as Spirits beyond the Material World, and use biological life as a reminder of impermanence and entertainment while preparing for a return to a multi-dimensional realities in which the Soul can never die.  
     Detach from labels and labeling, detach from concepts of possession and ownership, detach from beliefs in right or wrong, detach from valuing one thing as "better" than another, detach from misleading concepts such as life and death, pain and suffering, yours and mine.

Josh Radnor, Agent of Kali

People! Check out this sixteen minute video from actor Josh Radnor. He gets it, he is truly an agent of Kali the Creator, Kali the Destroyer (even if he doesn't know it, wouldn't admit it). He is an agent of change, of learning, of growth, of fluidity, of acceptance and Joy, of Peace and Love.

What do you think?

Thanks, Josh. (BTW: Loved Liberal Arts.)

Kali the Destroyer

I read this morning that a little girl carried a bomb onto her school bus yesterday where it detonated, causing the bus driver to lose control whereupon the bus careened off of the road, over a ledge and down into a lake. Between the effects of the bomb and the bus's sinking into the lake waters, all 43 occupants of the morning bus ride perished. And this on Veteran's Day!

I can imagine some of the questions racing through your head while you were reading this post. "Was the bomb an act of premeditated malice on the part of the girl? or her parents? Or did someone plant it on her? (It was in her backpack.) Was the incident planned specifically for November 11, Veteran's Day? Who is behind this heinous act? Why target children? Where did this happen?" etc., etc.
     These would be typical responses for those of us caught playing the 21st Century American version of the Earth School Game. Some of you who might be of a more callous nature, or from a far different culture might have a completely different set of questions or judgments.
     As a representative of God, of the Unified Field of Divine Cosmic Consciousness and Kali the Destroyer (and Creator), I would like to issue my congratulations for the act of provocation perpetrated upon the families and affected members of the community in which this event took place. The sacrifice made by the perpetrator (sacrifice of his/her life, rights, physical and emotional well-being, relationships, and so many other things) in order to offer up this extraordinary gift to the humans affected by this event is, at some levels, so amazing, so selfless, so beautiful. Just think of the years and number of extraordinary things these people--the "victims"--have a chance to learn about Life, Love, Beauty, Truth, and them Selves through this event. They can learn many dimensions of things like grieving, anger, revenge, coping, hatred, spite, bias, prejudice, longing, loss, forgiveness, empathy, unconditional love, belief systems, values, ethics, ontology and cosmology, spirituality, etc., etc., etc.
     I have to remind myself all the time that so-called "negative" or "destructive" or "tragic" events are also windows of change, opportunities for learning, and doorways to new challenges. Every death or end is followed by birth and beginning. Every moment dies, revealing a new moment to follow. I have to remind myself that Kali the Destroyer is also Kali the Creator, Kali the God of Time, and Kali the God of Change. Out of all "evil" or "bad" one can find (if one is willing to look) for "good," for birth, for creation, for life. The choice, as always, lies with each and every one of us playing this Game--at each and every moment. We can let go of and allow the death of yesterday, the past, the old versions of ourselves. We can recognize and use the insidious, unstoppable passage of time and the chaotic creation of change, newness, with expanding expanding awareness, expanding acceptance, and expanding consciousness, or we can resist, try to fight change, try to remain "true" to "who we are" instead of remaining open to the flow of who we are becoming. There is no right or wrong. It's all a Game. A Game that we have voluntarily chosen to participate in. What we sometimes forget while playing The Game is that we are always, constantly, forever, in Choice. I would urge you to choose with intention, choose with your own will, choose freely, choose wisely, and be happy and forgiving of your choices for you will always have more to come.

Events like the school bus bombing above, real and/or imagined (does it matter which?), are brought to you on this blogsite in the effort to illustrate to you how every event is an opportunity for learning--to show you that there are many, many perspectives from which one can observe and, if one chooses, assign meaning and value to the things that happen in our world. This is yet another way of illustrating that everything--every single thing that draws our attention--is full of information from which we can learn more about our Selves. Random acts to provoke mind expansion.
