A Vision For Humanity |
Gloria Crook |
The known history of humanity has shown us that we are an enigmatic species. We have undergone so many changes during that known history, and there are so many facets to the structure of us, that a vision for our future must include some inscrutable mystery. An attempt to vision our future truly requires a surmising of causes that we, as a species did not set in motion. If we are honest, we have only the vaguest notion of all the possibilities. We stand in the face of existence with an illusion of certainty that wherever we came from, whatever we have done, and whatever might befall us, we can set our own course as if we clearly grasp an intended destiny. Every human failing, all egocentric mentality and dispute based on separation, are part of an illusion built by humanity, itself. At the same time, however, Truth has been functioning, and creating evolutionary growth with no deference to human miscreance. The mind is a faculty which has evolved until most of humanity is now thinking. Our material knowledge has stretched until we are able to recognize ourselves to be a part of an Infinitude of Universes. In the Copernican view, our relative insignificance blatantly surrounds us. Still, with every evidence to the contrary, we blindly and pitifully, act as if we experience freedom of being. It can be imagined that our combined mental, emotional and physical lives, now and in the future, will change. That change may be due more to our being a part of that Infinitude of Universes impressing all substance in our world (including us) than our being an independent, driving force. If Immutable Mystery is connected with the Causes mentioned before, is it then possible to register in our collective mind, the Vision as predicated by that Mystery? It would seem an extreme measure of relinquished preconception might open a door for precipitation into our collective mind. An admission that we haven’t got a clue to how that Mystery makes choices for the future would be an untarnished beginning. From there, as we relinquish our blind assumption of disconnected material existence, the fog might lift from our collective eyes. We behave as if we possess unconstrained choice, and that our separative opinions matter greatly, related to Mysterious sustaining Causes. We remain unable to consciously and humbly participate in Plans and Procedures of Omniscience and Omnipotence. These are taking place whether we are conscious of them as such, or not. They have been taking place throughout our tenure as a species. The Mystery Immutable, enduring outside the range of human thought and language, into Infinite spaces of quantum motion indicates well how far afield we have gone in our self-absorption. Color, sound, silence, light and speed, sweep us in an interminable spiral forward from which there is no escape. All of our deluded concepts of separation are illumined as invalid. Is there collective consequence in our existence somehow? A mysterious Purpose for us as a species? Can we grasp it? How can we get beyond our “mind slaying the Real?” We can only experience being moved from “here” to “there” until we do. Putting intellectual gymnastics in their proper place might be a first move. Allowing the Precipitated Power of Heart to overwhelm us into true submission could be another. Our unanimous, synthesized, transmutation in abject AWE, might open the door to full Conscious Participation in that Mystery. The suffering through our ignorance might have brought us to see the necessity for complete renunciation of our autarchical functioning. If we can sense how our potential lies in that the Mystery IS Being ALL, including us, (Truth) , then we will have accomplished Beauty and Goodness as well. Then, there could be no false, supercilious awareness of difference. Then, there could be no playing with the Universe’s Energies on any level for our curious pleasure and disposal. Then, humanity could participate in the Procedures and Purposes that have been underway always. We would have outlived our puberty, and become aware in the Wisdom of Brotherhood and Realized Synthesis — full grown humanity, prepared for the uses by Omniscience, Omnipotence and Omnipresence in wholly Conscious Participation. |
