Of all the perspectives revealing the human conditioning as an ego-alien encounter, A Course in Miracles stands clear as a witness to its lack of true substance - regardless our invested identity by reaction.
But an alien will is in this case assigned to 'Other' seen as threat to be masked and distanced from or denied–and attacked as a means to maintain the split of a private mindset of control from fear, guilt and hate cast out or projected away – as if to get rid of or limit it. Such is the mind set against itself unknowing. Such is a mind driven for getting, pun intended.
We receive life miraculously - that is by no means of our own laws of cause or effect. That we are, is prior to any thought or experience by which we recognise or accept a sense of self and world. Yet our mind is a capacity to think or imagine its own creations as a going forth of ideas given value, priority, significance and identification, such as to 'Fall' into vanity and self-conflicted limitation - AS IF at the hand of an Other.
Sovereign integral recognises 'Brother' as all creation within one life we both are and share in. An alien thinking sees 'other' as witness to separate sense of self-autonomy locked down to a body. An 'alien' world of bodies and things reflecting a fragmented and dissociated fear over which a drive to get fulfilment 'externally', runs as shifting narratives for 'continuity' or unified sense of self set over masked or manipulated conflict.
'The Men in Black' serve a believed need for unconsciousness within a 'Matrix' of manipulated or machined predictive controls.
It remains evident that our narrative or mythic archetypes run beneath and within all unfolding drama, and yet are not Divine Platonic templates, so much as entanglement of victim and perpetrator arising from a split mind of Separation Trauma - by which a covert identity THINKS to have taken itself from God (As in Prodigal Son) or from the Gods (as in Prometheus). A mis-taken identity runs guilt as its primary directive against Disclosure.
Yet what is truly Revealed is far deeper than any ego-alien encounter rendered as grandiose, for the lack of substance to the basis for 'Separating' reveals a lie that was but is not. Awakened responsibility for thought is no longer compelled to victimhood or perpetration of coercive judgemental self-convictions. But true freedom is not at the level of the body, the self-automata of its mindset; however intensely or ingeniously we may seek, demand or take it for 'ourself alone' - regardless such self hides in collective mythic or ideological symbols of virtue or war against vice.
What is 'bottoming out' in terms of recognising and releasing and addictive dispossession we could not really see because it 'saw' for us?
It is a tipping point of tolerance for entangled complicity in pain to a recognition of primary connection within our being, but outside our sense of control.
The nature of a real relationship is a contextual alignment regardless the form it takes.
The nature of assigning fixed meanings of past associations to perceived forms or behaviours runs a predictive control that was invoked to 'make you safe' from an experience of conflict you could not or would not resolve, and so it made time and space for elements held apart in concept through which a mindset in reaction runs as if in reversal of effect driven causes – normalised to social masking to a 'prison planet' locked down in 'solitary' running on dreams of its own self-imaged reflection for a 'special love' that for a moment seemed within grasp to be snatched, broken or betrayed.
So the Pharaoh/King was set to restore the Golden Age, to assume the power of divine vengeance as both Terror, and sacrificial obeisance and appeasement to limit its dictates.
Assignment of destructive intent to life 'puts it there' rather than own a mis-guided attempt to fulfil a true need falsely framed. To a guilting mindset, owning error attracts damnation of social rejection and exclusion, but to the desire to release and be released, it is where a poor choice can be replaced by a better one, in terms of its true fruits lived and felt.
What is the nature of a recognising and releasing of an ideological capture perceived only in Others, but restored awareness and responsibility for judgements by which we want to give to 'others' to get rid of in our self?
But giving – at the level of thought given acceptance as our own - is the way to KEEP.
What we give we share and strengthen. Everyone demonstrates or embodies their thinking by teaching it and learning it - as a self-reinforcement for what is given value now.
The shift is of an awareness of a true desire to learn a better way than a mind set in its own spin. Opportunities to learn were never withheld, but we could not see them while we sought what we thought would 'make us safe' or powerful in a world of 'others' who do not see or recognise us.
By what we bring TO relationship is what we draw forth. As we sow, so shall we reap applies a blind justice. But a releasing of time and space is given in our true created nature as an innocence of being - prior to and beyond the world we think to know by 'thinking' set in robes of knowledge against fear of disclosure.
It is this Innocence that guilt would destroy or deny to mask in 'representation' of grievance given power. Gaslighting our own mind attracts or becomes a ritual ab-use of relationship to mutual manipulations set in darkness. Lest light reveal hollow, false and sacrificial of all that is true.
Denial projected out has never really left the mind, but the insinuation of a reintegrating wholeness will seem to be an invasive violator, a seeming enemy of shifting shadows kept from light by gaslight or guilting blame setting blame as a social debit system of covert ID masking as power struggle for survival in its own im-pacted terms & conditions.
Beware fascination with horror and addictive compulsive identity in the 'dynamics' of conflict. I don't say this or anything from anything but a willingness to share in what it invites or reveals worthy of acceptance as a renewal of living presence rather than the stamp of a past made in anger. This world holds both as if to join them.
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again!
But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here.
