In looking at how
Creation/creation arises from within an equivalency of energy
and consciousness as discussed in the topic “Origins
of creation/Creation.” unbounded and
non
localized energy and consciousness can be seen to take on their
particle nature by creating an illusion of separation.
Consciousness focus it attention and awareness in a particular way.
That, in turn causes the energy to
localizes into a particular form. The particular form that
energy takes then holds the focus of conscious such that
consciousness has an experience of its creation/Creation until the
flow of energy giving rise to the form
dissipates. Consciousness then has the option of freeing itself
from its focus or become attached to the past and redirects the
energy into the particular form it just experienced.
The observer and the
observed (Top)
It is interesting to note for
consciousness to observe and experience the form or creation that it
intends, it needs to separate itself is some fashion into an
observer and the observed based on the intention that is held. The
consciousness becomes the observer and the energy becomes that which
is observed or an experience of what is occurring. Anything which
arises within creation will arise within the context of an observer
- observed pair within a given environment. There are three
components to every manifestation: the observer, the observed and
the context or environment of the observation. There are three
together represent an intention that is desired to be expressed to
be both experienced and observed and it is though the observation
that experience is had. This phenomenon of the illusion of a
separate observer and an observed also gives rise to an inherent
duality. In this regard, duality is an inescapable phenomenon of
Creation.
The ultimate illusion and the function of the attribute of
consciousness that can best be called “mind” is to hold this
illusion of observer and observed. Mind thinks it is the observer
independent of its observation and the intention or creation which
forms the observer - observed pair. In reality, the observer is
interconnected and at one with its observation and the environment
of that observation. Similarly, the function of the attribute of
energy that can best be described as the particle nature of the
wave-particle nature of energy is to hold the particular form
that is to be observed and help the mind to sustain the illusion by
being a particle or a fixed form whether that fixed form is only a
belief or an physical creation or experience of that belief. By the
particle having limits and boundaries to its existence it is seen to
exist separate and unconnected from the observation and the
environment in which it is observed.
One of the more important aspect of this observer-observed pair is
that how we choose to observe can change what we observe. How we
choose to observe is a focus of our attention and awareness and that
focus causes our
creative life energy to flow to create and experience of that
focus. Changing our focus, that is how we observe, changes what we
experience. Changing how we observe can reveal the unseen aspects of
what we observe. Another way of saying this is by changing the
conditions under which we observe something, we reveal a facts of
itself that is otherwise unseen. We can observe either side of any
duality by how we create our observation. Because an observation is
a focus of our attention and awareness our creative life energy
flows to experience that observation we become the duality.
Energy consciousness when seen and experienced separate from
each other form a pair much like the particle and anti particle
formed in the
pair production phenomenon. What is different is that in the
pair production phenomenon
non localized
wave energy is split into matter an antimatter. In the case of
energy consciousness, the energy consciousness splits into a energy
and consciousness pair analogous to the matter - antimatter pair.
How
this process occurs can be described as follows. This discussion
start with understanding our consciousness resides in a sea of
energy consciousness. For our purpose we start with the fish bowl as
used in the discussion “Origins
of creation/Creation” and diagramed in the figure entitled
“Consciousness awakening creates a distrubance.” As our
consciousness awakens as in the figure it
localizes its energy and creates a disturbance in the infinite
sea.
In wholeness and complete uniformity of the infinite sea, there is
no Creation. There is no observer and there is nothing to observe.
Everything is the same. One does not know if they are awake or
asleep for there is no contract, no change, no discontinuity or
disruption to the calmness for an observation to occur. Unless there
is some disruption or discontinuity that is created in the
uniformity to create the contrast to make an observation, there is
nothing to observe. One can view this discontinuity as created by a
movement of consciousness in some way. Consciousness awakening is a
movement by consciousness and such a change sufficient to create a
discontinuity that starts the creative process. Or consciousness
changes what it thinks and believe is also the creation of a
discontinuity from the past. As we shall come to see, it is this
particular change that allows is to become conscious creators
It is only in separating into an observer and observed in some
context of observation does Creation come into existence. This is
achieved by choosing beliefs to create a distortion in the fabric of
consciousness to cause whatever we believe to be formed. It is much
the
way music is made But what is important to realize about music
or any sound, although there is a disturbance in the air that gives
rise to the music, unless there is someone to hear or observe the
music, no music is heard. Without an observer to observe Creation
there is no Creation.
If
we contemplate the origins of an observer-observed pair arising out
of the uniform oneness (or no-thing-ness, nothingness), the context
of observation is “in uniform oneness.” The process starts with
consciousness somehow awakening.
Creation/creation start with the awakening of awareness as
symbolized in the diagram, “First Step in the Creation Process.”
First step in the creation process is awareness appears out of the
calm pool of creation represented by the initial circle.
Initially
we have the
non localized
source of energy symbolized by the circle. The moment with have
awareness awakening, consciousness becoming conscious, we have a
point of reference. We have a localization of energy. In essence the
non localized energy
localizes into a form by the awakening of awareness and
diagramed in the figure entitled, “Awakening consciousness localizes
energy.”
The
second step of the process is where consciousness becomes aware such
that it has the equivalent of an individualized thought. This step
is symbolized in the figure entitled “Second Step in the Creation
Process. The equivalent of an individualized thought creates the
observer and something to be observed.
The realization of “I” and the subsequent “I am” or “I am not” is
all that is needed. It is the awareness of “I” not “I am.” but just
“I” that causes the observer/observe pair to arise. It is the
realization of one’s existence with without any relationship to
anything else that causes Creation to unfold. The awareness of one’s
exists creates a reference from which comparisons and separation can
be made. The”I” become separate from oneness and brings it to
existence all that is seen as “I” and all that is seen as “not I” no
matter how big or small the “I” perceives itself to be. The
recognition of “I” is a disturbance that ripples out through out all
of Creation that give causes the Creation to come into existence to
be observed.. The appearance of “I” is the separation of Creation
from oneness. To recognize the “I” is to be in separation
This second step in the creation process is the awareness of “I am.”
The “I am” is a thought that comes into existence within the mind
“I” and the energy of energy consciousness moves to manifest the
thought. It is the creation of the observer - observed pair. The
pair exists when the “I” of the “I am” realizes “I am” is separate
from that which is “I am not.” The “I” of “I am” defines itself by
what it is not. In the figure entitled “Second Step in the Creation
Process” the circle begins to separate into an observer and the
observed. The observer and the observed is the thought manifested
within a context of observation. The thought manifested is another
ripple in the calm pond of creation. The center of the circle
separate and two foci (the observed and the observer) form resulting
in an ellipse.
The symbol for the second step is the ellipse. The ellipse is chosen
because each focus is equal to the other for that is the nature of
an ellipse. This is to say the creative process that is occurring is
the experiences of a thought held by the observer manifested as an
observed phenomenon or creation within uniform oneness. Yet you
really don’t know which is the observer and which is the observed.
Both are equal The need for this disruption or discontinuity of
oneness is to allow the conditions for an observation to exist
otherwise without the disruption or discontinuity, there is nothing
to observe. That focus
Whether you see consciousness as separating itself into a creation
that creates the equivalent of a sound heard by an observer, or
consciousness creates a disturbance and then hears the disturbance
thinking it comes from somewhere else doesn’t matter. The effect is
the same. When we chose to believe anything, we create a disturbance
in the fabric of Consciousness. That disturbance then creates the
observer and observer pair. The attention and awareness of
consciousness causes and the energy to form itself into an
experience of what consciousness holds.
An
inherent duality (Top)
What needs to be realized is that
any thoughts create a disruption or discontinuity in the fabric of
Creation. Our mind takes the energy it senses and
localizes it into a thought. The creation of a thought is a
disruption or discontinuity that can then be experienced as a
creation. That disruption creates the observer - observer and an
inherent duality. Any time our mind focuses our attention and
awareness it causes a duality to arise. There is that on which we
focuses and that on which we don’t focus. Mind is what creates the
illusion of separation by how it focus our attention and
awareness on one aspect at the exclusion of all other aspects of
Creation. Redrawing the observer - observer pair represented by the
ellipse can provide some further insights into how the duality
exists although we may not be aware of its creation.
Redrawing the observer and the
observed (Top)
Now what is interesting is there
are many ways to redraw this observer - observed pair. In any
observer - observe pair, there is a context of observation. The
context is the background or backdrop of our observation. We tend to
think the background is external to us but we also have an internal
backdrop.
Who
is observing whom?
(Top):
We can stretch our mind as to what this really means for there are
several contexts of observations we can draw. There is no reason why
we cannot redraw the ellipse as in the figure entitled. “Who is
observing whom?” All that is done in the figure is remold the
environment around the points of observation.
Reality will mold itself to the beliefs that mind holds. To create
anything and any experience we only needs to hold a concept and act
to manifest that concept until we turn it into a perception. In
essence this is what has been done. As in the Figure entitled “Who
is observing Whom,” the material contributing to the
ellipse has been redrawn into two individual looking at each other.
Both draw the same but each looks at the other. Here we have an
observer seemingly separated from the observed within an arbitrary
context of observation. However, since all is energy consciousness,
we are faced with the question, who is the observed and who is the
observed. Who is watching whom? We assume that since our
consciousness is observing we are the observer, but are we? Are we
the creation being observed or are we the creator observing the
creation?
A
traditional view of God (Top):
This then takes us to the traditional view of God. A traditional
view of God is that God is the entity that created the world. Many
concepts of God attribute Creation as an act of God. This God is
perceived as standing outside creation looking into creation,
observing creation and is capable of controlling and/or recreating
creation. In the Figure, “A Traditional View of God” God becomes the
observer of Its Creation and as drawn in the Figure we have “God”
the observer of creation looking form the “outside into creation”
viewing Creation.
However based on the separation of the observer and the observed, we
can ask, ‘Did Creation create God? Is Creation only observing God?
Yet, another way of viewing this and looking at this is to ask, “Who
is God and who is the entity created by the thought of God?” for you
really can’t tell the difference for the observer and the observed
are made of the same material and are actually one and the same.
They are just redrawn from a different perspective. The energy of
the universe simple changes it form based on how consciousness
changes the focus of its awareness and attention.
A
view from within Creation (Top):
A third view is also presented in Figure entitled “A View from
inside Creation” and gives an idea of what this observer -observed
pair looks like when viewed from within Creation. Here we can view
the observer creating their experiences within Creation and
observing Creation from within their experiences. Or, you can see
Creation observing a created entity having an experience of
Creation.
In looking at any of these perspectives it must be remember, that
this material is about accessing and releasing your unlimited
creativity and we need to understand what beliefs we may have in our
consciousness that may be causing us to view what we experience the
way we do. Do we give our creative powers away to an external cause
that may not exist. In doing so we end up denying our own powers to
create reality and our experiences if not also create a victim
consciousness. Or, do realize how much responsibility we have for
creating the experience that we have simply by how and what we think
and how we act.
Some additional views from the wave particle nature of energy
(Top)
In looking at the observer -
observed pair, there are three additional ways to look how energy
consciousness can be seen separating into and observer and an
observed and how it relates to the wave particle nature inherent in
the energy within our being. Within each of us have a
creative life energy that flows from the source/Source of
creation/Creation and sustains our being. This energy can be
experience as an energy or as our
creative spirit depending on how
we choose to focus our attention and awareness. You can say our
consciousness is this flow of energy which has awakened to an
awareness of itself.
However we choose to view it, there is nevertheless an energy which
is sustaining us. That energy is
localized within our bodies but still possess and
non localized
portions which spreads out into all of Creation. The following
provide some thoughts of how you may wish to perceive as to how this
non localized portion of your energy is functioning.
The
observer - observed pair as a wave particle
(Top):
The first view is that of the figure “Who is observing Whom” where
the particle nature of the energy is
localized in the observer. As seen in the Figure entitled,
“Observer Observed Pair as a Wave Particle, “ the wave nature is
then what is permeating the all that is which not of the observer.
It can be said it is what is giving rise to that which is observed.
How this wave nature gives rise to what is observed is probably
better understood in looking at the observer - observed pair from the perspective of the
pair production phenomenon and the corresponding discussion of the
paper cut out.
The observed - observed pair viewed from pair production
(Top):
As
discussed elsewhere, the
pair production phenomenon can be used
to look at
how our internal world is reflected externally.
This point is better brought out when the pair production phenomenon
is viewed analogously of a
paper cutout from a formless blank sheet of
paper. It is the paper cutout analogy that we can better seen the
wave particle nature of energy and how the wave nature of the form
permeates the environment in which it find itself. This is
represented in the Figure, “Wave Particle Nature of the Cutout.”
The formation of a particle and antiparticle is essentially the same
as creating an observer - observed pair within a context of
observation. The only question is whether we choose to view from the
particle or the antiparticle. However, it need to be realized when
viewing from either the particle or antiparticle, the view is of the
opposite particle and the environment in which it travels.
The
wave particle observer observed pair in creation
(Top):
We can return to the Figure “A View from Within Creation” and redraw
it as in the Figure “Wave Particle Observer Observed in Creation” to
see how the world we experience lies within our wave nature. Our
awareness and energy is
localized in the belief we are a human being. It gives rise to
our body and the creation we experience. What is important to note
were is actually our body is part of the environment and not us. We
can lose an arm or leg and still our awareness is not lost. This is
the most important observation from the
pair production phenomenon.
That is, our awareness (consciousness) is the particle and our body
and its environment (the form energy takes) is the anti particle.
Our perceived
and actually awareness (Top):
These discussion give rise to another view of the observer -
observed pair. That is the observer is our awareness and the world
we experience, including our body is the observed. The context of
observation is the particular form or perception our awareness and
the form the energy takes as a result of that perception. The
Figure “A View From Within Creation” is how most of us
view our experience of Creation. That is the energy which gives rise
to our experience of Creation is split between creating our body is
the cutout and it resides in the environment in which it finds
itself. The concepts of
dormant consciousness,
subconscious, and
aka
cords, listed in the Figure are discussed in the hyperlink files.
The topic “A View From
the Particle” uses the
pair production phenomenon to show how this view arises.
In actually, a view from within creation should be view more like
the Figure entitled “A More Realistic View From Within Creation.”
Our awareness is viewing Creation from a set of beliefs which causes
the energy to form into a experience of those beliefs. The body and
the world it inhabits is actually the creation of what mind
perceived. The key to this process is the
bridge point.
It is where our
inner and outer creative powers merge
within us at the
source/Source of
creation/Creation. What is important to realizes there is a dance
between our inner and outer worlds. The
outer is just a reflection
of the inner. As we rearrange the inner we change the observer. In
changing the observer, we change what we observe for the two are
integrally connected
like the cutout and the hole it creates.
