The Value of the Insignificant

Written by Mathew Naismith

Biologically speaking and knowing, life on Earth could not exist without the existence of microorganisms nor electrons and protons. This means life on Earth as a whole relies on microorganisms including the creation of the air we breathe, however, what if I told you that there is something way smaller than microscopic organisms or entities as a whole!!

Actually, microscopic organisms or microscopic entities are immensely huge compared to what everything was created from. If life on Earth and the universe itself relied and relies on microscopic organisms and mass/form to exist, what does everything, including consciousness, rely on to exist? If physical mass on Earth relies on microscopic organisms to exist, what would, say for example, consciousness rely on to exist? Would not consciousness itself in the absence of form consist of something far less miniscule than micro matter or form?

I often visualise my egos right index finger ever so gently touching something so seemingly insignificant to the ego that it almost seems not to exist, not until this interaction creates a ball of bright light. Light in this sense seems to represents a pure state of awareness. The interaction seems to be between two distinct entities of ego and non-ego. Often the ego exists in a state of bias and/or desire thus lessoning its state of awareness.

Isn’t it funny, how the ego always goes after or searches for what is significant to what is insignificant. How huge is the expression of love or material gain these days?  Love to a lot of people is far bigger than the universe itself with huge gains, something significantly significant. Materialism, there is never enough in volume where material gain is hugely significantly significant.

Yes, people like me are in quite a different state of consciousness to the above, where the ego sees more significance in the insignificant than the significant.

         

Insignificant: Not worthy of notice

Significant: Important in effect or meaning

No, I am not a theist but I am certainly not an atheist either. To an atheist, before microorganism could be proven to exist, they simply couldn’t have existed as there was no device to measure their existence. So if it can’t be measured, it simply could have never existed!! I don’t think like this, where facts are the main stay to the existence or none existence of everything, usually in the absence of truth. Yes, I certainly seem to think more like a theist, where measurable facts are not the only way to know or have some idea of the true existence of something.

What are human measuring devices totally reliant on? The five senses, in other words truth is very limited to the five senses. In this case, no device can be created to measure anything beyond the five senses, within this, of course nothing smaller than what can be measured by these devices built upon these senses will ever exist.

Sixth sense: Grasping the inner nature of things intuitively

Intuition:  Obtained through intuition rather than from reasoning or observation

Our reasoning if often governed only by our five senses, as is our observation and even life experiences, however, an observation beyond the limitations of our five senses creates a totally different reasoning process that is not limited to certain specific biased variables.

So let’s get to the truth of the matter. God, or what ever you may call this state of pure awareness, is that small that the ego often overlooks this state. It is like the measuring devices based on the five senses, if it not of a significant size or feels good to the ego, it is insignificant therefore either non-existing or totally ignored as having no significant value to the ego. The perception of love and materialism has a huge significant value to the ego. Yes, if it is not valuable in someway to the ego, it is often ignored. Think on this, how could something of non-ego have value to the ego?

So why is this God state so minuscule that is almost doesn’t seem to exist to the ego? 

The answer is obvious, it is a state of non-ego for only the ego has volume therefore value.

So does this state of non-ego have value to me? Yes, to my ego, but not in the same way as a measurable value, a value of some kind of significance.

Our own bodies are made of trillions of microscopic atoms, could not everything as a whole, including consciousness, be the creation of something even smaller than microscopic or electrons and protons, in other words something very insignificant to the ego but highly significant to existence as a whole? 

If our egos like it or not, the ego and everything else of physical significance is totally reliant on the non-ego entity or non-ego state of pure awareness existence. Yes, even in a pure state of ego, the non-ego resides, be it of insignificance therefore unimportant to the ego in this state.

So why does this state of pure awareness give a strong feeling of love?

As hate is in relation to ignorance, for only in ignorance can a consciousness become abusive to energy, so it is the opposite of love, for only in awareness can a consciousness become complementary to energy. It is the awareness in the ego that creates a feeling of love, as it is that ignorance creates a feeling of hate, and quite naturally so.

In all, the non-ego (God) within everything has no self-value, only can the ego see value in a non-ego entity, of course to do this, the ego itself has to see far more value in the insignificant than the significant. You could relate this to; it is the people’s inactions not actions that tell the true story!! Something to ponder…….

A Reaction to the Egos Abusive Manner

Written by Mathew Naismith

What is the point of people like me doing what we are doing, going beyond human and even soul perspectives and perceptions? In actuality going beyond perceptions and perspectives all together, for only can perceptions and perspectives exist through our egos.

The point is, in a reality where the ego has become highly abusive to energy as a whole, balancing this out with the non-ego (egoless) part of all of us seems like the wise thing to do. In actuality, people like me are simply a reaction to an action hell bent on abusing energy.  It's not a counterreaction where a response is in opposition to an action, it is simply a reaction to the abuse of energy, especially when so many people want and even need to find an answer to our abuse of energy as a whole. In truth, to find an answer to the counteractive response of an abused energy. Make no mistake, an abused energy is in counteraction to the abuse it has received from the ego in control.

As I have stated in a previous post, the ego can never experience actual enlightenment, all that the ego can do is become aware that the egoless part of ourselves is of this enlightenment. The ego simply becomes aware of the egoless part of ourselves being enlightened, thus giving a perception that the ego has become enlightened. Yes, the ego becomes aware but not to the point of enlightenment, for the ego is unable to exist within an enlightened state for there is no ego in this state. Imagine ignorance existing in the same space of pure awareness, it is impossible unless the ignorance becomes aware of it's enlightened self. The last thing the ego in control desires to do is become this aware, however, the ego that isn't in control, in other words the ego that is simply being of the ego without being controlling, can become aware of it's own enlightened self.

At no time separate the ego and egoless self though, the desire to be only of the egoless self is purely of a controlling ego, for only the ego in control desires this much control and stature over and above the ego. Why have so many of us humbled ourselves to the ego? Why does the ego even exist when our egoless selves are so enlightened? Because the egoless self doesn't desire to be only of some kind of higher stature, the egoless self is aware it is all of what the ego is as well as what the non-ego is.

So what's my point? To keep in balance between the ego and non-ego, in other words work in unison with the energies and creations of the ego as well as the non-ego. As I stated in a previous post, there is nothing wrong with materialism, it is simply that we abuse materialism as our controlling egos do of any energy. Yes, balance materialism with spirituality. Become aware that our controlling egos will be abusive to energy if there is no balance.

To become too spiritual in a material (physical) world is also an abuse of energy, the abuse of the material world in favour of a non-material world. What part of us favours one above the other? The ego in control. How abusive can the controlling ego be to energy as a whole? Your enlightened self, or as I prefer being, doesn't desire to be of one or the other, especially one over and above the other, it is what it is, nothing more, nothing less. In truth, there are no perceptions or perspectives of one being above the other in this state, it is simply ego and non-ego, abuse of energy or working in unison with energy. Imagine for one moment working in unison and in harmony with energy as a whole, this includes everything the ego has deemed to be negative or toxic!! I cannot express in words what would occur in this case, the egos perception of nirvana or unconditional love doesn't even come close.

Are people like me in counteraction against the abuse of energy? If a lot of people weren't even trying to become less abusive to energy as a whole, there would be no reaction from people like me. There is no point in awakening a controlling ego hell bent on ignorance, to try this would be a counterreaction but this is not the case. All we are trying to do is assist or guide an ego that is trying to become less abusive to energy, in other words our reaction is simply to do with their egos making an effort to help itself from being so abusive to energy. There is no way that people like me desire to assist a controlling ego who only desires to exist with its own natural environment. Yes, abusing energy is of a natural occurrence to a controlling ego. At no point to the egoless self is this perceived as being below the stature of the egoless self, it is what it is, an existence that can be experienced or not by the soul. Of course a soul that is humbling, humbling itself to the controlling egos environment is not a problem.

Who reads my material, is it an ego in control or an ego aware of it's enlightened self in some way, even subconsciously? The answer is too obvious to me for you are the one's I write for as well as myself, in actuality I probably write more for myself for I am definitely not alone.
