Good morning,

I trust,

Or whatever time it is,

I'm glad that we have the continuing time and opportunity to share our ideas and work together to do what?

What's it like to be you?

If we're observing it all of ourselves,

We can see,

And I spoke of this quite extensively last night,

That there is an almost constant foment.

There is always within us a certain kind of feeling.

May change color slightly,

It may change intensity,

But there's always a certain kind of feeling.

You could say a certain awareness of ourselves,

Or more accurately,

A certain character or quality that is almost always with us that we can be aware of.

That awareness is something that very few of us understand at all,

Because the truth is we take it to be,

In quotes,

Our awareness.

What I want to look at with you this morning,

And in a way to continue the talks that I'm giving on the Hero's Journey,

Of this idea that we live in a world that is so much larger in its invisibility than its visibility,

For the difference to be actually immeasurable.

Like right now,

While I'm talking,

I am in a certain constant state of interaction.

Look fairly calm,

Quiet on the outside,

But within Guy,

Just as is taking place within you,

There is not just what we are communicating,

But there is something in us that is communicating to us what it is that we feel about what's being communicated.

How do we feel in this moment of communication?

And our eyes,

Spiritually speaking,

Are still closed like a puppy,

Because we don't fully understand that there is at all times a very deep,

Running,

Invisible interaction between what we see and experience in the world and between us.

It's almost like a person on a boat in the ocean,

And because of the way the light of the sun reflects off of the waters,

There's just this kind of a two-dimensional effect.

We see the surface of the water,

But we see nothing beneath the surface of the water.

We see nothing of how the sun itself streams into the water.

We see nothing of all the micro and macroorganisms at the different levels in that water.

And yet there we are,

And we're living in this sort of a two-dimensional world,

But all the time we're actually floating over and through a world that is so deep in its dimensions,

In its population,

As to be inconceivable,

Honestly,

Because it's not just the things that we can see with our eyes that are part of that circulation and part of that interaction,

But it's all one beautiful,

Constant movement,

And we don't see that we are,

As human beings,

Part of that movement.

So that we feel our life to be the outcome of the movement of thought.

We see and take our lives to be the outcome of the movement,

The appearance and movement of our reactions.

So we take that minimal,

Minimal,

Minimal,

Barely above animal experience as being the full possibility of who and what we are,

Because relegated to that realm of this very limited interaction with the circulation of life,

We're limited to our own thoughts about that.

This is honestly what it means if and when you've ever heard the idea that humanity is sound asleep,

Or the allegory of the caves where people see only the shadows on the wall.

There are countless illustrations,

Metaphors.

So this is what I want to talk to you about a little bit today.

And I thought best to set the tone through a story.

So if you will,

I like to tell stories,

Keeping in mind that every spiritual story that you and I are all of the characters,

All of the qualities,

The storyline,

The whole nine yards,

We are all a participant in this story that I'm going to describe in any parable.

So here's a biologist and he has received a grant to study a certain section of the ocean off of the northwest coast to learn about its flora and fauna.

And he takes his daughter and his wife,

And they are given a nice,

Nothing elaborate.

Who needs something elaborate when you can sit and look at the ocean like that and they have this home on the ocean,

A little dock with a little boat,

Glass bottom boat,

Scuba gear,

The whole business.

And the biologist,

The father,

Wants his daughter to not necessarily follow in his footsteps,

But he would like her to have awakened in her this understanding of this dimension of life,

Of this circulation of life.

And so quite often he would take her out with him in this flat bottom,

Glass bottom boat,

And they would float over these elaborate kelp beds that occupy the northwest coast.

Giant kelp,

I don't know if you've ever scuba dived or snorkeled,

But there is this direct parallel.

You sit here where I live in Oregon and the winds come and all the trees are moving.

Well,

You float through the water and you see that the current of ocean is a kind of a wind doing exactly the same thing to the body of kelp that the winds do up here.

It's all part of a circulation.

And he shows her this and they see the otters and the fish,

All of the things that live in this ecological niche in its intricacy and its movement.

And the daughter's captivated and who wouldn't be captivated looking at a world that there you are and you don't see the world at all.

All you see is the surface.

And suddenly she's given the eyes to see into another order of creation and more importantly,

Of all of the movement that's going on.

And anyway,

She's so struck by it that she just loves the feeling of it.

Why do I love,

Why do you love the feeling?

Like for instance,

I love storms.

When things are moving and grooving,

Shaking,

When things are going like that,

I just love to be in that movement.

You watch from a distance the clouds come in or you watch the sun as it starts to set or rise.

Why is it that we're drawn to those kind of moments in the world around us?

The answer is because we have,

Without knowing it,

A certain corresponding consciousness,

A part of us that doesn't just see and register the two-dimensional world,

But that is capable,

In fact created to take in not just the three-dimensional world,

But even the four-dimensional world where we can see that there is something that is in passing time,

But that the whole movement is timeless.

We have an inkling,

An opportunity to share directly in this circulation that takes place between the world outside of us and what it moves within us.

Why are we moved by what we see?

Because when we see what we do and we're aware of it,

We're part of the movement that we see.

And this is quite the beauty,

Really quite the only beauty is to take part in this.

She's all taken with it in a big way.

And unbeknownst to Dad,

There's a fairly large aquarium behind one of the sheds on this property because other biologists have lived there.

And she goes,

Without saying a word,

And she collects salt water,

She gets some kelp,

Takes it off the beach,

Finds some various sea creatures,

Little hermit crabs,

Whatever she can find,

The shells,

And she basically decks out her little aquarium to where it looks in her mind's eye exactly like the giant aquarium that she had been floating over with her dad.

And she's just tickled pink with the world that she's created.

And in one respect,

You can say,

Following her little intuition,

This was what she could do.

Well,

About,

Well,

Let's just say,

Seven,

Eight days later,

Her little spirit that had been quite buoyant,

You know,

Running out without Dad knowing it,

Without Mom knowing it,

And looking at her aquarium to see if anything was going on.

Well,

Her dad knew he could see what was going on,

But he didn't say anything because he also knew that there was a great lesson coming to his daughter,

Something that he wanted to teach her,

But that you can't teach.

People have to experience it.

I've often said,

I said again last night,

I can tell you about these truths that we share,

I can show you through example,

But I can't take you into the experience of them.

You and I are either drawn to want to understand something of this divine life,

This whole life or we're not.

Anyway,

Seven days later,

She's getting draggy down,

She's not happy,

Finally comes to her dad.

What's wrong,

Sweetheart?

She doesn't want to admit what she's done,

But he already knows,

And she confesses.

And he says,

Let's go out there and take a look.

And as they're walking out,

She says,

What is it?

She says,

Everything is dying.

Everything is dying.

I feel responsible.

What's wrong?

Why is everything dying?

And then he sits down with her right outside of that little aquarium that she built.

He starts to explain to her something.

He said,

All living creatures need to live in a world where there isn't just space and there isn't just objects that are familiar or necessary to their continuity.

But along with space and objects,

No matter how well they are arranged,

Is the necessity for a ceaseless,

Vital circulation.

And without that ceaseless,

Vital circulation that regenerates and refreshes,

Re-oxygenates,

Cleans the water,

No creature can live.

And everything in a system that does not have that vital circulation,

That is not living in that and as part of that law,

Then the health and vitality of the organisms in that system are going to die.

No circulation,

No life.

You don't have to be an Einstein to understand that.

Everything must be constantly refreshed.

And it must be in that refreshed state of circulation.

It is made new.

And everything is made new because part of that circulation is the regeneration of every creature and every level in it.

As it has brought the nutrients,

The energy,

The light,

The food it needs,

It becomes something else and it passes on what it becomes.

And you can see,

I hope with at least your mind's eye,

That without this circulation,

This greater flow,

Nothing can grow.

No flow,

No grow.

Pure and simple.

Because without flow,

Nothing can grow and things must grow and not grow what they've been so that these creatures can all fulfill their natural destiny,

None of which can be fulfilled when they are cut off and isolated from life.

Now I just want to throw in one idea quickly to you.

And it's connected to this.

It's not principle,

But it's important.

We live,

Don't we,

In a time of unprecedented change.

But we also live in a time of unprecedented violence,

Unprecedented anger,

Unprecedented dying,

Unprecedented greed and ambition.

I want you to understand that this unprecedented change is not directly responsible for all the things that I just listed,

Because all the things I just listed are the outcome of something that is dying,

Something that is cut off completely from life,

So cut off from life that it can only be at odds with everything that it sees challenging its life.

Because whether we see it or not,

And I know that most of us don't yet,

Just as the things that we can't see with our eyes,

These eyes,

Where we live here in Southern Oregon,

When my wife and I drive down to the foundation for the talks,

We drive by a little stretch,

Just a country road,

But we drive by a stretch of a stream,

Quite a large stream,

It's called Jump Off Joe.

Jump Off Joe starts back in the hills and mountains,

Runs down and eventually connects to the Rogue River.

And one day,

A long time ago as I was driving along,

I was thinking,

What is it that it's so fascinating about a river or a stream?

And in a heartbeat,

It was clear,

I have to take two minutes to explain it,

But I realized where I'm looking at Jump Off Joe,

Part of the joy of looking at the river is that you're looking at something that doesn't have a beginning or an ending.

Where does Jump Off Joe begin?

Where does it end?

Well,

The mind says,

Well,

It starts with whatever it is up in the mountains and these little rivulets become a stream,

They gather together,

Enter into something at some point,

Somebody said,

Look at that,

We're going to call that Jump Off Joe and then Joe jumped off into it,

Which happens to be a true story.

And then it becomes Jump Off Joe.

Jump Off Joe doesn't have a beginning or an ending.

Jump Off Joe doesn't end in the ocean.

And Jump Off Joe doesn't begin where the first waters start.

Jump Off Joe is a circulation,

Isn't it?

Without the sun making the evaporation and bringing the condensation to the mountains and without the mountains acting on the clouds and drawing out of the clouds because of gravity,

They can't get above it.

The raindrops,

Without the raindrops,

There's no streams,

Without streams,

There's no Jump Off Joe,

Without the ocean,

Jump Off Joe doesn't continue and then the ocean brings the raindrops.

So if you can see it with me,

It is a constant perfect circulation.

Sunlight,

We don't think to ourselves that sunlight is,

Excuse me,

Part of a circulation,

But it is part of a circulation.

And not just the light itself.

Because in one respect,

We live in a river of light.

This great sun that itself was formed by a greater sun yet,

Etc.

,

Streams this light down,

This light streams down into the creatures.

The creatures take the light,

They circulate it in their system,

It comes out something called food or form.

Food or form then does and acts what it does,

Carrying the energy of the light into the world they're in.

And then like the trees that fall on this property,

Eventually the sunlight and all of that and all of the energy breaks down and becomes food for the ground.

And then the ground gives birth to what it gives birth to to receive the light.

I just want you to see that we live in this incredible invisible circulation,

This constant interaction between what is divine and celestial in nature and what it acts upon in you and I.

The pressure systems that bring the storms,

Bring the warmth,

Bring the cold,

Bring the seasons,

Part of the circulation and its relationship with the interaction of the sun and our tilt towards it.

All of this is going on all the time.

And now to the point,

The same thing is happening in our consciousness all the time.

Nothing is outside that circulation.

Nothing isn't being acted on at all times.

You are,

If you're listening,

Being acted on by the words that I'm sharing with you,

The ideas.

I am,

As I'm speaking to you,

Being acted on by the impressions that I'm being given to share with you.

And together we are involved in a circulation.

But the circulation just isn't because I'm sitting here in a physical body.

That's going to get off,

That's going away.

The circulation is that which comes and enters into our consciousness,

That which it moves in our consciousness,

And more importantly,

Whether that consciousness allows those changes to take place,

Allows those changes to produce in it,

What those changes are intended to produce,

To bring about,

If you will,

Making a little leap here,

I hope you'll go with me.

What greater circulation system is other than what we call life and death?

See,

For us,

Death is the end of the circulation.

I'm telling you it's not.

You have been given eyes to see that the world that we live in is a tintype of the world above it that gives life to it,

And that this world below and this world above exist as they do,

And the lower world could not exist without the higher world.

Try to figure out what kind of world there would be with no sun,

No life giving light,

No circulation produced by the onset of these incredible forces of all magnitude,

Bringing into the forms that which innervates them and brings them into this moment where they lived.

They give birth and then they die.

But when they die,

They're not disappearing.

They're just taking part in another order of that circulation that our physical eyes know nothing at all about.

And that one part of us doesn't want to know about it.

I have to get on with the talk because that's a pretty important idea.

We say,

You and I,

We say that we want change,

Don't we?

Yeah,

I want things to change.

But there's one of those fine lines,

You know how they talk really fast at the end of commercials,

And there's something in us that is that fine print at the bottom says,

Yeah,

We want change,

As long as the things that change are in accord with something in us that doesn't want to change.

Something in us that is fixed.

So as long as what changes are taking place,

I'm okay with,

Then I'm okay with change.

And because we are spiritually blind,

Literally,

We don't see that the changes that take place in the world around us are quite a ways away from literally downstream from the changes that are taking place in the consciousness,

Because the world that we see with our eyes and the things that are going on in it are in fact an expression of the consciousness of humanity.

Only now there is so much humanity that we can't avoid the reflection of an unconscious nature that only wants what it wants when it wants it,

And if it's not that,

Then it's at war with whatever it says is producing this unwanted change.

So you see there's violence.

We think to ourselves,

Well,

I'm not like that,

And I'm not this or the other,

But if you could just see yourself,

One thing goes wrong on any given day,

And there's hell to pay.

But the task here,

And we must move on,

Is it if we,

You and I,

Want to have peace in our hearts?

Imagine – and I tell you that you're intended – imagine being a human being who,

When that unanticipated,

Unwanted moment – now please listen,

Can you begin to kind of see what we call moments?

Because moments for us are the experience of something in the flow that the mind selected so that it would know itself through that moment.

Is there a separate drop of water in a river?

Is there a separate bit of water in a wave?

Or is a river a ceaseless movement of corresponding parts,

All of which,

Like the wave,

Are part of the expression of a circulation greater than themselves,

That merely is expressing itself through the individual form,

So that we look at a river and we can understand.

The river doesn't have a particular moment to it.

The river is the movement of life expressing itself.

What we call the world around us,

The moments that we pick out and that punish us or that we try to take pleasures from,

Those moments only exist relative to a consciousness that looks at the world as something like a candy shop or a bakery or a dump,

And it doesn't want this and it wants that,

And so it imagines and picks out of life the things that it wants and it also looks at life and it decides,

I don't want that.

Imagine looking at a river,

A diamond flashing on a lake when the sun is at the right angle,

And out of all of that picking that one little flash,

Picking that one little part of the river and saying,

No,

I don't want that.

That would be insane,

Wouldn't it?

Because we understand it's part of a movement.

And we can understand that the movement that we are aware of is inseparable from its movement through our consciousness.

And if the movement is inseparable from our consciousness,

That means that whatever the movement is moving in our consciousness is intended to move with it.

You know,

Sometimes I can't help wishing,

And I get rid of it the minute that it takes place,

I can't help wishing that these ideas,

That they,

And they're not mine.

What would happen if a human being at least understood that there is no such thing as this negative reaction,

There is no such thing as this summary resistance,

This anger where you suddenly want to throw something or you want to lash out at someone or you want to push the moment away or you don't want to look at what's happening because it's so clearly in conflict with whatever it is that your consciousness says things have to do in order to flow with you,

Take place in the light of life,

In the kingdom of heaven,

Your relationship to the Tao,

To the true moksha,

The true life that you and I are intended,

But we have something in us that we're not aware of,

That when something comes as part of this change.

Did you know that as I'm speaking to you,

Right,

Literally as I'm speaking to you,

Something like a quadrillion neutrinos,

Whatever the heck those are,

These invisible particles that they have spent a gazillion dollars trying to figure out what they are,

That you and I,

This whole world has been penetrated.

Do you think for a split second that it made in the image of God,

Do you think for a split second that there isn't something in you that isn't registering all of that,

That circulation?

And do you think that if that's true,

That that circulation is part of this movement of light,

This river of life,

And that in this movement,

In this river,

All things are intended to be touched,

Stirred,

Give themselves up,

Die so that something new can take place so the whole of that circulation can occur?

What do you think it means when Christ said,

Our Father who art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy name,

Thy kingdom come,

Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven?

May this divine understanding,

This wisdom,

This love circulate as above through below.

And it is set up that way,

But human beings as we are,

Are presently set outside of that system because we believe life is supposed to confirm the kingdom that we've made in our own image.

And so this,

All this life,

This light comes,

And the images that we've made are struck by them,

And instead of understanding and thinking to ourselves,

Thank God.

You know,

Here in the Southern Oregon,

It's not such an issue,

But when we lived in Ojai,

California,

It would get so dry in the sand and the wind would come,

It gets so dry.

I can remember sitting there to myself in the end of the fall,

And you'd lay in bed and you would just,

You would just long to hear the first,

The first drops of rain on that wood shingle roof.

You just,

You long to hear that.

Why?

Because then the circulation was starting to take place and the life-giving waters would then touch the seeds that died or gone dormant over the hot summer,

And then out of the ground would come the mustard and all the wildflowers and everything would begin the process again through that circulation.

We're meant to take part in that circulation,

But we are presently sitting outside of it.

If you want to write something down to help you understand what I'm getting at,

You can write down these simple ideas.

First,

There is no resistance to any movement of life without what is moving,

Running into something that we are identified with.

We don't think to ourselves that like that little girl's aquarium,

All these shells and mollusks or whatever it is that she put in there,

We don't think to ourselves that these objects,

If they're not part of the circulation,

Then they're interfering with it.

So that the ideas that I have about myself,

That you should treat me a certain way,

That this should happen,

I should have this,

I should never have a worry,

My health,

I should look like I'm 35 years old until,

In fact,

I should never change.

That all the things that produce these changes,

Like aging.

Why does the problem,

What is the problem with getting old?

I mean,

I get it,

Believe me.

Your body hurts,

Your legs aren't the legs they were.

You try to run.

And it's like slow motion.

So where's the problem with that?

Rather than something in us never stops comparing what should be to what is.

And what should be doesn't exist without a certain level of consciousness having collected all of these images and their corresponding identities.

So that when the circulation moves,

And it strikes one of these identities,

Something that was long intended to be changed,

To die,

Long ago meant to assume a new form.

We can't help taking on the way we are now,

This process of identifying with experience,

It's almost impossible.

A child has no choice.

That's all the way we know to relate to the world around us is through the experience we have of it.

And then we don't understand that something in us,

In order to feel secure,

Works with or against that experience,

Stows it away,

And produces a kind of residue in the stream of consciousness,

That as it grows through accumulation by conditioning,

Then begins these,

Becomes these objects,

These things that are in the way of this movement.

And we register this movement through our resistance to it.

And instead of understanding the moment where I resist what you've said or what you did or what I see,

Instead of resisting it,

My purpose in that moment is to realize that I couldn't feel this resistance to the moment.

I couldn't be afraid,

I couldn't be anxious,

I couldn't go through any of those moments of negative reaction,

I couldn't go through that unless there was something in me that by the grace of God was being stirred by that circulation.

Then the stirring is not intended to produce someone who goes out and then begins to build a dam there,

Who begins to shore up all of the things that suddenly feel like they're going to disappear and be washed away.

I know it's hard to understand,

And I can't,

I can't,

I can't take you there,

But you and I,

Our real nature doesn't have a person,

This identity that we are so firmly established in because who we really are is forever washing in and washing out,

Forever appearing and disappearing because everything in the circulation,

By definition of something higher acting on something lower,

Everything lower is being remade.

And it being remade may mean being removed because it no longer serves the purpose of the grand body the circulation is moving through.

So here we are and we have the summary resistance that I want you to understand cannot be separated from this consciousness that is attached and dependent on a certain image or identity.

Resistance doesn't exist without identification.

All identification is fixation.

It's synonymous.

What I am identified with has become fixed in a consciousness that didn't know or couldn't allow for that transformation to take place when it was first revealed.

So now that resistance,

That identification for us,

It becomes more and more easily triggered,

Doesn't it?

And eventually the whole of my existence becomes established in a fixation.

And fixation is what?

It is isolation from the system,

From the stream.

Attraction means I am cut off because my attention goes directly to what I blame for,

The conflict I feel.

Instead of understanding as we're intended to and it's inherent,

Again the teachings are lost.

He prepares a feast in the presence of my enemies.

Love thine enemies.

What does that mean?

It means presently as we are that something in us looks out at any moment that doesn't confirm or somehow support our identity as we have it.

And when that takes place,

Now life is my enemy.

Now please listen,

I don't say to myself life is my enemy,

But when I look at the weather or I look at them in the mirror or I look outside and it's not the way I want things to be,

You're not doing what I want you to do,

Then I think I take you as the enemy,

But you are not,

You don't exist as the enemy apart from a consciousness that has made it so.

And were that consciousness washed clean,

Those of you that know scripture,

But it's not just Western scripture,

Then there couldn't be this residue,

There couldn't be this crud,

This content of a consciousness that is so dedicated to ensuring that what it is fixated on gets bigger and stronger so that it feels more secure and try to see the circulation of that nature.

So the more identified I am,

The more fixed I am on a certain belief system,

A certain set of ideas,

Whatever they may be,

And the more fixated I am,

The more rigid I become,

And the more rigid I become,

The more certain I am that nothing is intended to move that until finally the thing breaks down,

And it does.

Whether it's an individual or a culture,

It breaks down because it has to,

Because just like that little girl's aquarium,

It has fallen out of the circulation.

It's a cutoff level of consciousness,

Literally.

Now I can't bring anybody into this circulation.

You can't change anybody to realize whatever it is that you have understood about the futility of this resistance,

Of the incredible pain.

That's why I say we're not sensitive enough yet,

Inwardly awake enough to actually experience that the first and only pain in one respect,

Which is also why Rumi said that the antidote is in the venom,

The first and only pain is the fact that as a creation,

We come into this world and we require to be completed.

All creations require constant completion.

But we don't think that we require constant completion through this divine circulation,

Because for us,

The completion of ourselves is inherent in the kingdom we've imagined that we've made,

And then all the things that we have to do to try to make it seem like it's alive.

Real life doesn't require force of any kind at all.

It's not fixed.

We're never powerless.

We just don't know what real power is because we want it to be our power.

I want it to be my say.

The real power,

As with all things,

Is in this indefinable,

Inexplicable,

Timeless celestial circulation.

And the reason the real power is in our relationship to that is because the only thing that we want power for is to overcome what we think is overpowering us.

But when we can begin to realize that the very pursuit of power begins with resistance,

And that the resistance by nature is a fixation with a certain identity,

Something we believe ourselves to be,

Then we can start to put two and two together in a way that produces a completely different wish,

If nothing else.

Because maybe I can't get over the sudden resistance I have.

Something goes wrong,

Someone says something,

And boom,

There it is,

And you know what it's like.

I'm fixed,

Man.

I'm fixed in it.

But you can begin to be aware of that fixed self,

Which means that we can,

And no matter how dimly it may be,

We can bring the awareness of this resistance,

The awareness of this fixation,

Of this fixed state of self,

This fixed anxiety,

This fixed depression,

This fixed worry.

You fill in the blank.

You can see they're not getting less fixed.

Just because of what was it,

Who said that,

Epictetus,

A rock beneath the surface of the earth weighs as much as on the surface,

A rock beneath the surface of the earth weighs as much as one on the surface.

Just because we can bury these things doesn't mean we're not carrying them.

So we take these moments now and we,

As best we can,

With what little we have,

Listen to me,

You may,

How do I say this to you,

That much light is greater than the greatest darkness there is,

Because darkness is the absence of light and you bring a little light into that darkness and the whole of that darkness changes.

You bring a little of this fixated self that formerly we followed without question,

You bring that into the stream of light,

Into that awareness.

In that moment,

You have brought what has been fixed,

What doesn't want to change,

You have brought it into and under the influence of that circulation and that circulation will begin to do what we of ourselves cannot do,

Which is it will start to reveal the shape,

The form,

The size,

The depth,

The breadth of that residue,

Of that self.

And if we stay there,

We'll start to move with it,

We'll be part of the movement.

That's what liberation is.

I have to stop,

41 minutes,

42 minutes.

Join me,

Follow,

Go to the profile,

I speak three times a week,

You're invited,

Nothing to join,

Everything is free,

Tomorrow I'm going to continue this topic,

You can find out about that again,

Free,

Streamed.

Other than that,

Do your work.

Bye.
