330 | Is Self-Image Real?

If we allowed ourselves the clarity, in self-honesty, to see whether what is inside oneself is a valid/equal representation of its outside application and vice-versa, we would be giving ourselves the opportunity to make a pragmatic assessment and adjust ourselves and our behavior in a way that there is no discrepancy, no inner conflict. If we lived such clarity and self-directive movement or call-it self-will, in self-honesty, as ‘human nature’, much of the troubles we face as society would not exist.
We would all be communicating on equal terms because what I see and say is what you see that I see and say, based on the actuality of a reality where facts and words and actions show the inner nature of a human being that is self-reflected and able to place itself in the shoes of another – from this would emerge facts that would reflect a practical, pragmatic consideration of ‘what is best’ for oneself and another/others, as life, as equals of life.

What do such considerations have to do with self-image?

Well, it seems that self-image is something that keeps us from being true to ourselves and each-other as life.

Why do I say that? Because at some point in a person’s life the question arises, is this self-image real? Interestingly enough we mostly consider questioning another’s self-image and seldom our own. And if our own self-image were question, most people would be likely to say that of course, my self-image is real.

That begs for another question:
How do we know our self-image is real?

Well, to find that out, we can ask ourselves the question, to begin with; and then we can for instance make a list of all the things we think and believe about ourselves, positive and negative. Then we can have a look at all points in self-honesty, to see what is real.

I found for example that most negative ideas I had of myself were merely accepted inferiority and self-judgment, while most positive ideas I had of myself were merely projected desirable points which I was not yet living as 'who I am' in the actuality of reality.

So I'd say that if images/ideas of oneself exist in the mind – it is worth investigating. Because – if we live in direct communication with reality, expressing ‘who we are’, why would we need any images/ideas/definitions ABOUT it?

Another question that is relevant to ask ourselves is:
If I am real, and I am here – what is self-image? And what do I need it for?

Obviously in the context of the capitalistic/consumerism system this is easy to answer, because in the System as we know it the human being has become a commodity. Therefore, as a commodity, it must have a ´package´, which is what self-image is:
It is the picture/idea/representation of self that we SELL to others (and sometimes even to ourselves) so that we may be seen a certain way and through being seen a certain way get to achieve/attain what it is we `desire´ or prevent/conceal whatever it is we `fear´ – meaning the pursuit of self-interest.

Our world system tells you that what you see is what you get, and that how you look is who you are. Is this an acceptable belief-system for the future of mankind? What are the consequences of such `game´ in the world? What is the message given to children by presenting such context as if it were what life is about?

Do children today have any self-realization as life? Or is their self-definition always based on self-image – meaning that it includes all positive and negative attributes their environment tells them to desire and respectively to fear.
Will a child then ever really consider discussing their problems, troubles, thoughts and internal experiences with another, if they fear the judgment that comes along with any negative self-image? Or will they be too busy concealing and suppressing what is going on inside, just for the sake of `keeping up´ the positive image and get the “value” that we deny them as human beings.

In our world today, with all `evolution´ that mankind has apparently achieved, there is one bizarre thing anyone still in their senses should be able to observe: We deny ourselves and each-other, we deny the children of this world their/our actual value as life – and we replace the value of life with the “values” of consumerism, the “values” of the system which lead an individual to either `success´ or `failure´ but in both cases to alienation from life, because in one´s struggle for `survival´, in the desire for `success´ and the fear of `failure´, one will lie, one will deceive, one will manipulate, one will present a fake image and a face that fit the `criteria´ the System poses as it imposes itself onto life, feeding off it just for profit, just to keep the System running, no matter what.

It is time to re-evaluate the accepted value-system upon which our world and all systems within it are based, because we can see for sure that this value-system in fact devalues life, it does not in fact support life – it only supports profit, and this is unacceptable in the face of life, where half the world is struggling at the brink of extinction, not to mention starvation and extreme poverty as well as the lack of basic hygiene and the basic needs for a life in dignity.

It is also suggested to re-evaluate any ideas and beliefs, definitions and value-judgments one has accepted in the context of ‘self-image’ – because in doing so one will discover what it is one has in fact placed value into and how that affects one's movement and expression in life, and obviously such self-reflective investigation opens up the opportunity to re-evaluate it all in self-honesty and really ask oneself the question of the value of life.

Do we really value life?

Day 78: Our Evolution is Mutation and Devolution - Have a look

for context see my previous blog posts:
One Universe | The Only Real Thing is Consciousness?
Debunking Self-Delusion | Self Forgiveness on Consciousness
and the series:
Relationship Dynamics



the insight from any spiritual quest will inevitably be that: we´ve been searching, yet the more we search the further we get from what we search for: because it´s ourselves.

from this insight emerges the realization that I am Here.

from the realization, acknowledgement and acceptance that I am Here -
the question arises:

where am I going?
how did I get here?
where do I stand?
who am I?
how did I become?

it is the answer to the question of our becoming that is the key to creation. and if I will it, the key to freedom.

here is the paradox:
freedom requires me to will it.
yet how free is my will to will freedom?

a trap within this all has been: that we´ve been asking for and searching for freedom for self only - in self-interest.

somehow we refused to consider: if I am to be free, must not all be free? am I really free if not all are free?

so now we are here.
we realize: our will is not free. our will is trapped. where? how? what is pulling the strings of our decisions, choices, ways?




let´s look at the polarity within this world and we as humanity are existing as -

let´s look at our evolution on an individual level - what becomes of a human being:

the mutation of the mind consciousness
the devolution of the physical body

and the spirit?


the holy spirit of life has become de-man

`demonic´ as the actual nature of the human psyche

`angelic´ as the delusional ideas of grandeur of the human mind

the body trapped within the battle of the two, inspite of the fact that both polarities are but illusion -

yet made real -

the`demonic´ rules within the physical world as a externalization of the secret mind where we always try to get `our way´ (self-interest) and thus manifest hell on earth;
and to not have to face ourselves we dress it up in beutiful words and colors, and it looks `angelic´ but behind the pretended (and often believed) `benevolence´ hides the motive of self-importance that disregards the interest of the whole as life, acting always in self-interest, driven by fear, based in separation from life.

the positive and the negative exist as consciousness and cannot exist without each-other, yet compete for survival and divide the individual that is trapped within the cycles of polarities -
not really moving, rather being driven through the same energetic patterns, which often mutate with time - the personalities may change, but the name of the game is the same.

what is the name of the game? what are the power-games we play, both in our relationships and within ourselves in the mind?

the world is the manifestation of that struggle, those inner bipolar conflicts

they express through our politics, our education systems, our money system, and all externalizations of our nature, which, how long can we deny it, is rather disgusting.



yet fascinatingly enough the most negative message is the most positive message

a global orgasm of energy that is waiting to be directed

a reflection of ourselves

in a world trapped in fear, consumption, greed

ourselves: lost


we´ve been searching

but in self-interest

we´ve been looking

but outside of ourselves



our evolution has proven itself to be a problem

in the past 100-200 years we have been rapidly 'becoming' - yet what have we become?

organic robots hanging on strings of emotions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, projections -
driven by self-interest in fear, separating the singularity as consciousness from life as the whole

within that, in word, thought and deed  we `evolve´ into an enemy to life, an enemy to ourselves, seeking but never finding, and the more desperate the seeking becomes, the more nasty our ways become in how we try and 'get' what we think we are seeking.

god - success - power - control, - satisfaction - validation - revenge - the ultimate jackpot?

what we are in fact seeking is life - is ourselves. nothing and no one can give it to us. we must give it to ourselves, but for that we must give it to everybody else.

that is the chance that the manifested consequences of our evolution as humanity collectively and human beings individually reveal to us.



thus far, our evolution was taking place quite slowly and in unawareness, and within that, slowly but surely exposing the nature of our evil ways rooted in fear and set to self-interest - a slow survival struggle with lots of ups- and downs that were taken for granted.

all the while much blood is shed in the name of this `holy war´.

religion and spirituality failed to show a common-sensible way towards a betterment of what has become 'humanity'.

we have been seeking, but we got lost in following projections of 'grandeur' and 'divinity' as one can see within new age; and lost in the chambers of our secret mind where we've been suppressing and denying the 'evil' nature of ourselves - our fear and self-interest, our abuse of energy -

zombies


not only our relationships have suffered from our addiction to energy - we haven't even been able to have a self-honest relationship with ourselves within ourselves and how we participate in our reality in every moment, such that the body would not have to undergo such traumas, because we do not get to actually CARE for ourselves as life, get to know ourselves as life, and live so that the body flourishes a stable health instead of deteriorating with every breath.

so the time is definitely here.

call it revelations, call it judgment day, call it armageddon, call it the number of the beast, call it the end times -

it is about each and every one of us and all of us together as one humanity, one body, one universe.

we have the chance to take evolution in our own hands. the how is currently being understood like never before, seen in the global arena in a small group of people like you and me -desteni-, that redefine the starting-point of living in self-honesty, in self-forgiveness and through self-corrective living application. we train ourselves in becoming the living solution for ourselves, away from concepts of superiority/inferiority, god/devil,love/fear, power/powerlessness, more/less; stopping the addiction to the positive/negative energy cycles, and substantiating ourselves within the physical reality we all share - which includes every single being we meet and every cell in our bodies.

it's not what we do that defines who we are. who we are shows within what we do. and it´s about who we are within whatever we do.

the starting-point defines everything.

the starting-points determines the outflow.


the starting-point from which we´ve been existing has proven intolerable, an enemy of life, a fake trophy on a podest in the name of which we kill.

it is time to stop our separation, individually and collectively, and find back to substance, back to life, back to living.
stop survival and waging wars - start living and manifesting life as equality, freedom, peace, expression; an equilibrium in oneness with all.

a global change will require each and every one of us - standing also for those that are not able to stand for themselves: the animals, nature, the starving, the children, the exploited.

as consciousness we´ll keep on fighting trying to win, to be right, to be validated, to find, to ascend, to be enlightened

as life we will stop the game, and stand as self-willed equals to `enlighten´ our existence as a whole.

we have no choice as life but to stand for ALL LIFE to be ONE - and for LIFE to be ONE all abuse and exploitation must stop; all polarity and thehiearchies deriving therefrom must stop; all greed and self-interest must be transformed to expression worthy of life that are lived in the interest of life.

Day 49: The Devolution of Love

What has become of love? Where is love?

And even if you consider love to be life - then have a look at what has become of life; Where is life?

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed a world, an existence, where love is something we buy and sell, dress it up in bright colors and grandiose experiences, while half of life is left suffering starvation, poverty, war, exploitation - in the name of the love of those who have the liberty through money to define love in this world.

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to ever imagine and picture 'love' in a world where love in action is no-where to be seen -

Because if love for life was in fact in action, we would be having a whole different existence and the world would be a different place; WE would be different.

But we are not - and in spite of our actual nature we have the audacity to delude ourselves and each-other with profound concepts of ‘love’; to create, promote and sell ideas of love:

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to make out of love a mental concept, even a mental veil with which I can hide from the actuality of reality to not have to face myself and this world, this existence as me.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see that my love for self-indulgence is greater than my love for life -

within this I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to separate myself from life to such an extent, that I don't even realize that that self-indulgence I am cowering behind is not even in my own best interest, if I am life.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see, realize and understand that all points of self-indulgence, self-interest, self-consciousness are in fact formed in the image and likeness of the system I was born within, and my wants, needs and desires, even my fears, are products of this system.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see, realize and understand that I am born of life, yet I become of the system, as I become in-formed and mind-controlled to fit into this world; and that the self-consciousness that is taking the directive within me in that process is equally a product of this system.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see, realize and understand that I haven't even gotten to really get to know myself as life, before the system kicked in; that I haven't really gotten to move myself as life, before I was shown and told how to think, how to react, how to behave, how to judge things, how to define myself, how to manipulate, how to lie, how to hide.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see that if love was existent, if we were love, if we were life, if we were free: we would do a totally different deal of exploring and communicating ourselves and each-other, our planet, our world, our existence.

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed a world, an existence, where we create alternate realities through which we communicate with each-other: and within this that I haven't considered that this can only be so if we within ourselves communicate with ourselves through an alternate-reality – the mind; in the image and likeness of the ‘reality’ of the system that 'welcomes' us to this world.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see, realize and understand that love is deliberately promoted the way it is by those in power, because they understand the power of perception and they know that a human being trapped in the mental is not posing any actual threat in the physical, in the actuality of reality.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see, realize and understand that 'love' as promulgated in this world is but a drug - the opium for the people: and it is presented in all kinds of facets for all kinds of tastes - it is everywhere, it is also in all religions.

And why is it working? Because it was our own submission in the first place that gave the permission through acceptance and allowance; it was the one belief, the one indulgence, the one survival pattern that we held onto in the moment of conceiving ourselves, perceiving ourselves, defining ourselves through the eyes of the world consciousness: the one point of “this is it” through the mind the moment it aligns itself to cope with this world and locks into the system: one moment and the self-consciousness is born that feeds on life to preserve itself as an image, a persona in this world – with its preferences, fears and desires, which the big players use and manipulate to have the people be but organic robots, willing servants of the system, in essence slaves, while having illusions of love, freedom, power, life.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to see, realize and understand that our love for energy has become more than our love for substance - our love for the mind has become more than our love for the physical, our love for 'god' has become more than our love for life - our love for taking has become more than our love for giving - yet we refuse to face the consequences in spite of the evidence of how we consume anything to get energy while we disregard and deteriorate ourselves as physical bodies; how we consume the earth to get energy as resources while we disregard the physical world and exploit the substance of the planet that is the source of our life;

and that "in the name of love" we have used and abused any and all 'justifications' possible to keep the system running: the mind, the money - the energy, consuming the physical substance we are all equally made of, within and without.

I forgive myself that I haven’t allowed myself to see, realize and understand that the way we exist in this current system within and as consciousness: we are the living dead, walking zombies, energy vampires, self-interested trolls keeping the system running.

I forgive myself that I haven’t allowed myself to see, realize and understand that the same way the whole world system revolves around money, protecting inequality in the name of profit at the cost of life: the mind consciousness system within revolves around “mine” which is the energetic alternate realities each one create on the basis of one’s self-consciousness as one is locked into this world-system, and this self-consciousness will be protecting its self-interest, and will be protecting inequality in the name of love at the cost of life.

I forgive myself that I haven’t allowed myself to realize that if we were love equal to life, we would not be creating dependency and abuse, limitation and inequality; we would be creating freedom and expression, expansion and equality.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to realize that if we really love life, if we really love ourselves, if we believe in love: we must find it within us to show that love exists in fact - by stopping our submission to the system within and without, stopping our addiction to thoughts, feelings and emotions, stopping the irrationality of fear, stopping the mind-control from the inside out; and in fact honor ourselves by expressing unconditionally and standing-up in every moment of breath.

I forgive myself that I haven’t allowed myself to realize that love can only exist if we are it, if we live it, practically, visibly, as that which is best for all in all possible ways.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to realize that when love is equal to life, it cannot be a belief, it cannot be an emotion, it cannot be an experience, it cannot be 'selective'; it must be living expression, visible in every thought, word and deed - not from the perspective of 'positive thinking' or 'charity' or ‘politeness’; but in the very practical alignment of who we are within what we do in every moment, in self-awareness as life, as one, as equals.

I forgive myself that I haven't allowed myself to realize that if love existed as who we are, we would make sure that we educate ourselves to the best of all, and that we assist each-other in transcending our limitations to evolve as life, instead of using systems of 'reward' and 'punishment' and a morality of judgment, which is separation, to evolve as a bi-polar system, in separation from life.

I forgive myself that I haven’t allowed myself to see, realize and understand that if love existed, we would not be punishing the human psyche, we would be assisting it toward self-empowerment and self-realization; and love would not be equal to ‘reward’ and ‘punishment’ – love would be the practical application of equality and oneness, not unlike what Jesus explained: “love thy neighbour as thyself” and “do unto another as you would like to have done unto you” and “judge not lest you be judged”.

I commit myself to bringing forth a world where love is equal to life and lived visibly within who we are in everything that we do, speak or think.

I commit myself to bring forth a world where love is transparency, straight-forwardness, and the absolute commitment to not accept anything less than what is best for all in all possible ways.

I commit myself to bringing forth a world where love is equality - where we don't sell or buy love, where we don't measure love in terms of 'inferiority' and 'superiority', where we don't separate love from ourselves to then set out to find it, where we don’t separate love from life, where we don't create alternate realities to hide or suppress the actuality of reality as who we are in every moment, every breath.

I commit myself to bring forth a world where life is the only value, where we learn to accept ourselves as life and be 'enough', where we learn to actually embrace life in all possible ways.

I commit myself to supporting the education of myself and my world in how to stop the mind-control, get to self-honesty, realize what one has become in the context of the whole, forgive one's acceptances and allowances, and will oneself to stand-up for life, for oneself as life, and LIVE - and this is only possible through understanding how we got to be who we are and live how we live, individually and collectively in this existence.

I commit myself to showing how the same consciousness systems and polarity constructs that operate within and as the individual mind, operate equally the same within and as the world system: the corporations, the big players, the belief-systems, the power-games; and that therefore to change the world we must change ourselves - yet to change ourselves we must change the world - because no one is free until all life is free.

I commit myself to bringing forth a new system for our world where love is practically lived as the value of life in equality and oneness – making our world a place where each living being born into this world has from birth to death equal power, equal access, equal opportunities in fact, and is equally supported in all possible ways to live and express its utmost potential.
