The seeming lack of self-sovereignty humans have experienced stems from the incongruity of two unique facets of the Infinite’s Self-delight in Its existence; two beings, both maintaining illusions of form. These illusory forms then feel powerless because they try without success to control each other.
A man is caught in a thunderstorm. He feels the loss of his self-determination because he cannot control the weather. The storm is the physical manifestation of the weather spirit. The man is the illusory physical manifestation of his eternal formlessness. The real part of both is obeying the Song of the One Life.
Because the real parts of both are actually not two, but One, the game of the illusory images can be changed, provided it is part of the Grand Design from their timeless, formless realness but not from the illusory images.

The intent of the Infinite is an illusion. There is no plan in place creating a construct to which life must adhere. The expression of delight in Its own Being is a spontaneous symphony.
If there was pre-meditated intent there would be a matrix to enforce that intent – an artificial, illusional structure that is impossible within the One Life. The illusion of structure cannot be maintained within spaceless space.
The spontaneity of life expressing is the result of there being no time – not a specified moment, not a past, not a future. There is nothing for us to align to. Unobstructed by illusional belief systems, life expresses through us.

The electromagnetic components of life have held our memories, but in reality neither exists. The magnetic parts of existence have stored memories and the electrical parts have interpreted them. This has created a further illusion of our having had a past. In turn, this contributed to the illusion that the future could be predicted based on the past.
The electrical parts of created life have given the impression that there is masculinity – the proactive, positive principle. The feminine, as an illusional reality, was derived from magnetism – the receptive, negative principle of life. The reality of the One Life does not support this illusion. The Infinite Oneness is androgynous, having no gender. The illusion of polarity stemmed from the illusion of electromagnetism.

For millennia, the environment as a mirror has been used by truth seekers to access information about ourselves and as a guidance system. The language of dreams and of our environment has reflected what we failed to see in our daily journey.
Mirrors give backward images. If there is a deficiency in our perception, it would be mirrored as an actuality in our environment. That which was lack would be mirrored as substance. Although these mirrors have been helpful, the images were unreal. This could only give us information about the box in which we found ourselves.
It is in knowing that everything within the box is unreal that we transcend the make-believe world into the One Life of no beginning.

The linear communication of speech, sight or sound is not possible. Where there is no space, there is no direction. There is also no linear communication needed or possible when there is no relationship, when no two beings exist anywhere, where only the One Life is.
Within the One Life, communication cannot use the illusion of the body and its senses as a vehicle. The five outer senses have implied there is an inner and an outer reality. The many inner senses of man have consisted of electromagnetic impulses. Although they have been more inclusive and nonlinear, they have nevertheless been based on the illusion of duality, created by the unreality of electromagnetism.
Illumination 66
The desire of man to control his environment and his life has been pervasive. It served the purpose of focusing his attention away from the terrifying vastness of his true being. It gave him the feeling of having control over his illusory reality and his transitory existence. It also gave him a purpose, he thought, that would justify the unreality and artificiality of physical life.
Premonition, prediction and prophecy cannot work since there is no real foundation to them. There is no predictable plan. Physicality has never been real and the endless vastness that we are cannot be controlled.
Illumination 67
The staid – what the mind regards as the orderly – is highly prized in the illusory world of man. Propriety – the rehashed and obsolete value systems of another – are inflicted on generation after generation.
On the other hand, the few who actually hear the unbounded Song of the One Life or who merely wish to live free from the fetters of social conditioning others would foist upon them are shunned.
Wildness is the term ascribed to boundless expression and it is considered contagious – something that if not ostracized could spread. It could break down the carefully constructed strictures and partitions of what is acceptable and what is not, threatening the societal structure itself. Through authentic expression, illusions of man could come tumbling down.
Illumination 68
The spiritual awakening of man has been mapped as going through three distinct stages: identity consciousness, in which the perspective is contracted; God-consciousness in which the perspective is expanded; and ascended mastery, in which all perspectives are viewed at once.
Yet how can the unreal projected form be growing or developing? Real formlessness does not need to do so. The unreal form has been like an aperture through which to view life – a means of changing perspectives in order to role-play possible outcomes. There are no real stages of ascension for the physical and illusory forms.
Illumination 69
We cling to the familiar, a trait found throughout nature. Animals have familiar trails and watering holes. Humans too are creatures of habit. Seers have noted that animals that have habits and ruts also have less vitality and are more easily hunted by predators. This is nature’s way of ensuring that those with less life-giving vitality have less chance of passing on their genes to the next generation.
The illusion of anything being familiar must be dispelled before it becomes our contented prison cell. Life is newly expressing, even though illusory forms seem to linger. Like a river where the water is always fresh and nascent, we cannot feel the One Life behind the images and think that anything is the same in two successive moments – nothing is ever familiar.

Generations of seers have divided information into categories: the known, the unknown and the unknowable. Yet what can truly ever be known to us? The forms around us on which we have come to rely are merely pliant holograms produced by that real part of life that cannot be accessed through the illusory senses. The only reason they seem real is because we believe them to be.
The unknown pertains to that which, although not presently known, can be known. Because the only part of life that is real lies behind superficial experience and beyond our knowingness, all of life is forever unknowable.
Illumination 71
There are no mathematical sequences or any geometry, for there is no linearity or structure. The reality behind the illusion of form has no time or space, or linear progression that needs to be mathematically defined.
We define math by what it is not. Something is at 35 degrees because it is not at any of the other degrees – this is the same way form is defined and used to identify one person from another. It is therefore part of the illusion of space. The act of measuring and defining the unfathomable One Life is part of the illusions created by mind in order to feel in control. Mathematics, like language, helps us think that we measure and label the unknowable.
Illumination 72
Mind is the creator of the holograms of life. The movie projector throws images onto a screen and mind has done the same in creating the multiple images within the formless, giving the false impression that they are real.
How did this deceit occur, this false creation seem so real? Because mind made itself a self-appointed arbitrator and convinced all that its creations were valid. It has stubbornly refused to consider any evidence to the contrary. It has ridiculed, attacked or ignored all that does not uphold the seeming validity of its unreal creations.
It has contracted focus so that the larger perspective cannot be seen. Mind is not real for it has had a beginning. All that has had a beginning within the eternal Oneness of Being is not real.
