The New Millennium

Resolving the Essential Nature
of Spirit
~=~=~=~=~
Quie-ahnn Toiat / Do Doc-do served as Spiritual Adversary to the Council of Molokai from the year 821 to 957 at the close of the New Millennium. At that time, she attained maturity and asceeded to her rightful seat on the Council itself just prior to its mandated dissolution at the thousand year close and in preparation for The Reformulation of Power which will coincide with the dawning of The Next Millennium ..... now about to begin.
It was during her regency as the Council's Adversary that she recaptured the legacy formulating the Tenants of Spiritual Sensibility from which the following exerpts in text are taken.
Some of the works are her own, many more are not. The latter are fragments, which though carried forward as though they were brought forth simultaneously with contemporary principle and thought, are actually ancestral...many originating in the darker regions (now nearly completely forgotten) which were character to the first centuries of the New Millennium. (Some of you as readers may actually be living in the midst of that time frame)
Though their authors are lost to us forever in the tangled roots of our beginnings, their spirit is poignant and vibrant with us today...perhaps the remnant fabric of those first spiritual warriors themselves...their gifts, and consequently their eulogies...to the world they must then have known would one day become....the one we live in today.
Do Doc-do has never claimed origination for much of what she has assembled or what it has become in terms of explaining the development and integration of the spiritual paradigm into our system of governance. There are those close to her, however, who remain consistently and definitively certain that the strong thread which wraps this ideology and history together is indeed of origin uniquely her own. They are the ones who would know. They saw it happen. They are the ones she sought out as the scripts unraveled into her psyche and flowed through her hands into the reality they would become. It was they who she chose to be the first to witness and comment in trial. They were the first to bear her confidence and give their critical advise. As far as we know, none...or at least very little...of the manuscript ever traveled outside this circle of confidants prior to her presentation of the completed work to the Council near the end of her Adversary service.
We have made no attempt here at comprehensive presentation. Her detail is not reproducible short of epic proportions. What we have decided to prepare for conveyance back to the beginnings of modern time is a compilation of the skeletal structures of her thoughts and their support in history. The text contains no notation or arrangement indicating editing. We hope its context and flow survive the peril of radical deletions.
There are many things to discuss here. Most could be omitted, except for the long-observed fact that, though often it is not clear or obvious, it is none the less well known that the subtlest of our originating beliefs concerning the origins and unfolding of the universes in which we live serve with unnerving regularity in the formulation of the systems of governance we employ for guidance and therefore deliver all of the experiences of reality which form our lives.
So here, I will choose not to omit very many. Better to wind a maze which demands patience and return to unravel than to present a picture so deceptively plain and clear that all who enter it fall though the lacking fabric of its base.
The Losing of Hierarchy/ The Gaining of Fear
There was(though quite some time ago) an age of long extent in which there existed a structure and system which gave pretense to the manufacture and guidance of personal spiritual truth.The contortions, machinations and outright catastrophes associated with this organization of what we now universally accept as the unorganizable are legend now thankfully forgotten. However, there are lessons worth remembering in their remembering.
The essential nature of the universe... of reality itself... is one of constant change, continuous permutation and delightful impossibility of one singular experience or being ever being repeated a second time.
From this inherent understanding of the physics of being comes the conclusion that individual spiritual insight or understanding is not only deeply individualistic, but in direct adversarial danger with any concepts of organization, sublimation, education, advice or publication. To associate it with economic reward in any form is ludicrous disaster.
That which is known can only have been known because it was once experienced. If it was experienced then it is now gone. Its individually distinct and non-duplicational nature guarantees prevention of it ever occurring again. A fact, an experience, a being, a culture...even an entire universe. What any of them were then is gone, not what they are now and are guaranteed never to be again.
The cause of universal evolution predicts this. We live in a universe in which the illusion of matter is exploding very rapidly over the fabric of space. As space dilates there is a coordinate deformation of time. Since matter is a result of these, energy and the chosen point of observed perception...nothing can possibly ever be what it is twice.
We have now come to the understanding (which was certainly not the understanding of our distant forbearers) that Spirit is a predicted and substantial corollary of these other elements of reality. Space, time, energy, point of perception and matter contain the material we sense as spirit. In its fabric are the senses of direction (predicted by velocity and vector) the illusions of travel and stagnation (which obviously exist in parallel media), love and its partner rage (which...among various other states...are the statuses of relation between objects and phenomenon)((translated into our emotional jargon)) and connected communication with the unseen, the inexperienced and the unknown...telepathy...time dilation reversed (which we also now know as an easily predicable capability of our senses).
Since that time (and it took quite a bit of time) when spirit became integral with physics...we have evolved a systemology of governance based on these deeper truths...one in which the removal of hierarchy is the result of admitting the impossibility of repeated circumstance and hence the futility of rules, laws, structures and repression.
This process began early in the first century of the New Millennium and took at least three centuries more to complete.
There was, prior to that time, what must have amounted to a literal industrial machine constructed as an attempt either to extricate both the individual identity of spirit and its development for reasons of economic and political control...or (more likely) an obsessive tidal wave of deeply troubled wanderers desperately looking for a platform of stability and control on which to stand (or at least approximate that illusion) and they called it Religion.
What a strange word.
No linguist I've ever found can explain or trace its origin. Its linguistic history is as baseless as its originating concept....which is that spiritual evolution and diversity can be captured, documented, condensed, codified, institutionalized, industrialized and redispensed with predictable (and profitable) results.
It now appears that not only were approximately 8 millenniums wasted on throttling this ludicrous ideology to death, but it killed billions of innocent personages in its wake prior to its demise. It was the underpinning axis of wars, famines, purges, diseases, torture, ruination of biospherical systems and obsession with economic hedges (leading invariably...and predictably...to exactly their collapse)
The main function of industrial religion appears to have been war. This may explain the linguistic origin of the name...religion...re-legion...that is to "legion again".
Legion, for those of you who don't know, was a component of an army of war. Religion, therefore, was the methodology which was used to regenerate (or "re-legion") war. This is further explained by the economic reality of that time which was falling pathetically short of bio-spherical stability and could only be propped up by constant regeneration of conflict and warfare as a methodology for keeping the mind of the industrialized and over-consuming populace off the fact that their misery was directly a result of their failed sustainability and abysmal relationship (or lack of) with the deep planetary nature...the evolving spiritual body of the Ghia Chi.
It was, as should now be quite obvious, the inevitable path of evolution that Religion was quite thoroughly throttled and whacked to death in the first and second centuries of this millenium...as the predecessor for better things to come. Obviously, the best that could be expected from such ludicrous institutionalization and hierarchy was a guaranteed repeating of the past...which, as we said before, was exactly the result...for 8 thousand years.
Some are slower than others.
No matter how dysfunctional a belief basis is, its removal will result in a widespread wave of fear.
Despite the fact that it is well known that fear has no substance, cannot hurt us...in fact does not exist, except in our imaginations (which are quite within our control)...still fear has the ability to control those who cannot or will not stand, face it forthright and listen as its non-substantial specter passes through us and disappears. And so it did for quite some time. The dismantling of religion left in it wake an epidemic of panic and fear.
That's when we, as a species, started to get healthy. Ironically, for the 22 thousand years prior to the 8 millenniums of religion, we lived without either...religion or fear.
It may very well be that here, at the close of the New Millennium, after 9 centuries of self-extrication and spiritual ladder climbing...we may only have managed to return to where we were as a species 31 thousand years ago. But I'll leave that one to the pundits and philosophers. We are where we are...and its a beautiful place to be...whether we've already been there or not...which is discernibly impossible, of course, based on the physics of what we're already considered here.
It was the learning to live without fear that launched our species on the spiritual path to recovery. In order to vault that obstacle, first we had to get to it. To get to the fear, you first remove the mask of religion (which is a hedge). Once the feeling is real, the recovery can begin. It did.
By now, it should be obvious that the specter of falsely insulating structure occurred repeatedly in every assembly of that era...in its spirituality/ religion, in its physics, in its system of governance and in its economic/ social assembly.
Can you see now how a simple basic spiritual tenant will remanufacture itself time after time and find its way into every aspect of existence where it can persist indefinitely and defiantly of prolonged epics of time?
How many more of these incongruous misinterpretations of the basic fabric of God do we live with today unknowingly and suffer the consequences of...despite our comparative comfort and certainly our now long-established state of peace?
It is worth remembering that the 5th ingredient in the explanation of nature is the Chosen Point of Perception. That is a point we choose whether we realize it or not...and seemingly, mostly, it's not.
The Phenomenon of Thrill as a Guidepost Through Time
The Urban Psychosis (discussed elsewhere) produced for quite some time an aberrated definition masking the true nature of Thrill. Centuries ago, the stresses and repressions generated by the aberrant living environments of Urban Settings when they were released for brief periods...typically sojourns out of the toxic environemnt...produced a giddy dizziness characteristic perhaps of someone taking a very large rock which you had forgotten to notice off your head.That isn't thrill. It's more likely to be called something like situational inebriation.
Thrill is a relative state of harmonic peace and exhilaration experienced in peaceful and healthy environs.
It has a physical causality because of the transparent nature of space and time.
It is the corollary to relational harmony...in fact, it is the vision of that harmony. That vision can be experienced from any point of perception if you are focused on the event in which the relational resonance between objects or situations is producing harmony and peace.
Because our minds have the capacity to travel in time in both directions, it is possible for us to imagine (or deduce) any situation.
From the basic tenant of physics in manifestation with personal existence that "if you can imagine it, it exists" comes the next conclusion that what you imagine may or may not be in resonance.
If that object or experience is, say, in the future and it is indeed in a state of harmony, manifestation, or bliss...what will be experienced when you imagine it is Thrill...which is simply the recognition in contemporary space and time of the visioned event in another space and time.
This recognition transcending current experience is stunningly accurate and extremely helpful in discerning a course of direction and action.
"Follow your bliss" was an old old saying. Right on the money. Learning to recognize the experience of Thrill and coupling it with the imagination associated with it...along with the realization that it is indeed an indicator of a resonant situation ahead gives us an excellent mechanism for daily personal direction.
That perceptive capability is only accessible in the stillness of nature (which, as we know, is never really still) and deep quietness within us experienced for long periods of time each day. In these conditions...which necessitates crucially the fact that the natural universe and its integrity must be preserved at all costs...or all is lost...we can attain direction for continuous good.
The Complete Sanctity of Individual Spiritual Direction
We walk a thin line, even in the discussion of matters such as these. There is also seemingly, a paradox at hand.The commonality of our experiences and culture that make even this discussion a possibility of communication and like experience between individuals at the same time should probably be an impossibility given the expansive and non-repeatative nature of physics and the deep individuality of spiritual direction finding.
Obviously, it is and it isn't. Another prediction of scientific manifestation, but a subject for another day.
Basically by necessity of drive to communicate and elimination of all other possibilities, we arrive at the dictum which we now use in the integration of spiritual integrity into our culture and systemology of governance: that spiritual direction must by nature be left to respected individual domain, never be organized or institutionalized, cannot be condensed or codified and can only be accessed through the person to whom it belongs and no other.
Perhaps the experience of all this really is the same between those capable of living it...even though the conclusions and directions are distinctively different...producing a community of radicals.
I like that...and having now exhausted all other tenants of physics, governance, economics and culture...albiet still needing a reason on which to base a convincing arguement...."I like that"...and, I guess, that will just have to do.
The Dilemma of Divergent Selves
There is here, a subject, which must be addressed because of its critical place in the continuity of spiritual development and discussion here....but one, which of itself, would necessarily require a treatise of full extent just in its own right. I'll make this as brief as possible and apologize in advance for the shallowness and incomplete nature of what follows here.The subject deals with the phenomenon of Original (or Natural) Self in direct opposition to the alternative self definitions and identities of synthetic nature which stem from origins such as contemporary belief systems, sociological mores, religious dogma, rumor and outright stratagems of commercial and political manipulation.
There was a time in our historic origins as a developing species (not that we are completely free of these dilemma yet) when the proliferation of media, the shrinking of the global culture through communication and the escalation of battles for political and economic control produced a chorus of "shoulds" directed at altering the basic natural definition, development and manifestation of the inherent and original self rendering a world human culture which could (probably should) be described as nothing short of psychotic.
The "committee" effect, so characteristic of the now historic remnant archives originating in the first, second and part of the third centuries of the New Millennium describe a horrifying level of confusion and dilemma which may very well have been ingredient in the dismantling of what would then probably have been deemed "civilized culture". Our definition of that planetary spiritual and psychic state would now be "unnecessary, misdirected and unproductive insanity".
The plague of addictive obsession which paralleled this duplicity of self identity and fulfillment is legend to that era, is described in specific detail in the vignette which follows, and can now (safely on the other side of it...hopefully for keeps) be seen as a very simple diagnostic principle rendered to a point of debilitating array...that is...the discrepancy between the natural or original self in debilitating tension with the illusions of dysfunctional alternative belief system self expectations.
All this, of course, even after the dilemma is cleared and the belief systems safely pulverized leaves us with the challenge which remains with us to this day...who am I, how do I find this out, and on what do I depend for direction into what I will become tomorrow.
As I've warned before, opening the origins and intricacies of what we now know to be the inherence or original physics, the global manifestations of evolution and bio-energetics, their functional determination and necessity in the role of intuitive guidance, the production of vision and its necessity in spiritual attainment and the traceable origins of our individual spiritual psyches and their destinies.... are not subjects we come to this discussion enabled or accommodated to examine today.
They are, in fact, explorations which can never be completed or competently delineated. That is because they are inextricably tied to our spiritual vision and evolution itself and as such must be left here to remain the challenges of introspection and discovery which you, as an inherently evolutionary and spiritual being will face at dawn tomorrow morning...and every morning thereafter for as long as the spirit is found within you to play the game yet another day.
I will not, however, leave this discussion without imbedding all that is now known to the Office of Spiritual Adversary to the Council in one story. This is a story relating to a persona, which like so much of our early legacy in this Millennium is unfortunately lost in terms of her name, location, dates and identity. But her transformation, for all that I have come to know as Adversary, contains in the minutest detail the grains of what we now see as universally attainable spiritual transformation and peace. Here it is:
A Vignette Out of Spiritual Dilemma and The Dawning of Peace
During that time, among many other customs we now consider demonic, it was style and culture for women to detach themselves from the bio-energetic connection with the Ghia Chi by applying footwear which elevated them...sometimes to the point of equilibrium collapse or falling...out of contact with the earth which was, of course, thier mother and origin.Explanations for this bizarre custom range from an attempt to compensate smaller female stature into visual contact with taller males to a challenging for delicate aesthetic balance. Whatever, the result was predictable (a global chi energy disconnect) but not clearly understood prior to the advent of bio-energetics and their power to describe the interconnection of all physical objects including the Collective Unconscious...or god.
This woman had been raised in a painfully artificial belief-system riddled culture and consequently struggled for three quarters of her lifetime with myriad faces of synthetic selves including a system of expectations demanding constant attention from stronger males triggered by a latent and debilitating self-perception of helplessness (when the fact was, she was by inherent nature vibrantly strong and willful). Media phenomenon of a particular era in what must have been her history portrayed this chivalrous Prince Charming paradigm to the point of massive debilitation of women and a horrific shackling of males with the nearly constant demands for help when help was not only not needed, but actually blocked the female acceptance of personal mobility, freedom and confidence...with the predictable result that they (the women) harbored repressed vindictive rage which invariably exploded in veiled and inappropriate places.
There was, not just in the millennium preceding this one, but indeed for several prior to that one as well, a belief system in the indigenous cultures who had existed undisturbed in symbiotic resonance with the land for centuries...a belief system that said: "Greet each day's new sun by standing bare foot on the warm breast of Mother Earth no less than half an hour daily."
Obviously, this admonishment met categoric disregard in the several centuries prior to the birth of the New Millennium and our fundamental development in understanding of the bio-energetic nature of our beings. As we all know, simultaneous to the myriad psychotic proliferation of artificial selves and the concomitant stylizing of equally alienating garments and footwear (some even including fabrics made from the partially digested, synthetically altered chemical byproducts of rotting plant and animal carcasses harvested at great destructive costs from thousands of feet beneath the surface of the planets breast)...came an era of spiritual vacancy which left millions desperate and devoid.
This woman...who was not unsophisticated, unintelligent or spiritually incapable at all...(in fact she was vibrantly talented and capable in all these realms) never the less suffered from a chronic history of having been raped (three times...one of which was her first sex)...was guilt-plagued (though tantalized) by prolific extramarital or extemporaneous affairs (cast against a self-critical and prominent background of dictatorial monogamistic beliefs...cultural and religions)...despite prolific and diverse lovers had never manifested a rich and satisfying orgasmic lifestyle (which we now see as a bottom line in terms of spiritual self-development and manifestation as a form of deep communication)...carried with her a startling collection of belief system fragments which lead to an array of personal expectations which could not ever be (nor should have been) synergistically resolved...insisted on forms of self disguise (utilizing many of the synthetic petroleum chemicals previously describe) before she could muster confidence to face her public...and....(you guessed it) ....stocked a wardrobe of artificially elevating footwear which kept her forever 2-4 inches from a gratifying bio-energetic spiritual connection with the Ghia Chi...the energetic lifeblood of the planet which evolved her and was her potential home.
The other side of this woman's maddening dilemma was that she possessed deep in her energetic psyche a stunning amount of power. She was overtly beautiful, captivating and surprisingly (given her appearance to the contrary) intelligent and talented. She had fragments of a deep and evolved intuitive and intellectual nature. She was passionately committed to integrity, though many of her social acquaintances did not parallel this.
Beyond all this, she had a sparkling...indeed devinely...childlike glee which permeated even the most challenging and threatening of circumstances. She was vibrant, resonant and insistent...bouyant and forever exploring...developing. Not one prone to sitting on her ass...even if she couldn't get her feet to touch the ground.
We all know, now, that there is no such thing as a dilemma in a human life not accompanied by a solution if we can open ourselves to it. It is a manifestation of our nature and life that the dilemmas along with the solutions will be unceasing as long as we maintain the vibrance and decision to live. Afterwards...who the hell knows. Well, I do, but that's a story for another day.
At the beginnings of the dawn of our understanding of bio-energetics, probably sometime in the first century of the New Millennium there was an origin of new consciousness which began to recognize what was then scientifically known in fragments...but categorically unintegrated...as the energetic physical nature that connected all segments of the physical plane. This energy had long been recognized and integrated as the essence of what we call Spirit.
The magnetic pulsing of a planet in orbit and rotation manifested on that plane as a field within which all living creatures had evolved and without which...and of necessity, in direct contact with...no viable or satisfying life form could exist.
We're not quite sure why, one day, past the chronological age of 60, this woman took off her elevating shoes to walk in perpetual intimate contact with the planet being that birthed her and never put them back on again.
As I said before, no contemporary scientist...indeed probably most of our youngest children...would have much trouble explaining what happened to her next and why. But bio-energetic basis for spiritual development is...like I said...a bit too much to wade through right here.
Coincident with her reconnection to the Ghia Chi which birthed and empowered her, there arrived on the scene a man strangely capable (as few others had been) of sensing her inherent vibrance instantly.... according to what is left of her story. Obviously she could only see him through the judgmental, discrediting, debilitating and skeptical optics of her myriad synthetic belief systems of self and propriety which her past years had led her to absorb.
He must have been the one who took off her shoes. He must have been the one who let her cross the perilous rocks dotting a nighttime invisible cold mountain stream by herself without chivalrous assistance...knowing that the debilitating belief that she was helpless or dependent carried a price tag of incarceration she desperately needed to refuse to pay. She graphically describe each of these events as pivotal to her awakening, but leaves any mention of a accomplice a mystery...though reading between her lines...someone else (and it must have been him) had to have been there.
He weathered the storms of her disillusions manifest because of her dysfunctional beliefs...driven only by an intuitive but powerful sensing the "dazzling" vibrance of her energetic field when he was in her presence. He believed in that force. He knew that it was the childlike spirit of god beckoning from within her asking for...pleading for...direction and help from the real peril she faced...the peril of spiritual suicide at the hands of a vicious committee of alternate egos and identities born as the spawn of diabolical and incompetent religion, politics, social norm and commercial manipulation.
She found her orgasm with him. She came to know the feeling of a man's spirit talking to hers not from the outside of her, but from within.
For as much sex as she had had, she had never actually felt the dynamo of spiritual love.
Because she had reconnected herself with the Ghia Chi,there was alive within her once again (it had been there as a barefooted child, you know) a vibrance which awakened his and together they built each other out of the fabric of nothing but their imaginations and hope.
He was there only for an instant and then mysteriously gone. Always he returned, but always unannounced. She didn't know where he went. She didn't know why or how. But she very soon found that the spaces between their connections were the incubating ground for what was mysteriously passed between them to manifest, integrate and grow. She needed his absence as much as his presence. Both let her grow.
He forced nothing, but gave her choices with an open hand. Sometimes he described her...oftentimes seemingly brutally...but always with a purpose. These purposes came to her, but only after they had shattered the glass shackles of her artificial ideology keeping herself from her real natural spirit.
As her understanding, stature and confidence in the god-child she held all of those years enshackled within burst forward, she left behind a plaguing preoccupation with her appearance...demonically ironic given the dazzling beauty of her inherent being. She also left behind the hideous toxicity in effect of the synthetic chemicals and fragrances she had formed habits of applying to her beautiful body trying to look like who she could only hope...for all those years...that she would one day become.
She found that the power of his sex was only a beginning. His capacities at art, intellect, vibrance, social justice, compassion and play all sprang from that origin within them. They danced together. They were rich and alive.
Though she couldn't understand when he first told her that what he wanted was a "playmate"...to her that made her a sex object and the involvement shallow...that is indeed what she came to see with him, but in a completely different light...a light based on a huge and exhilarating vision of play as all that we can ever really do with any of the reality we're given...either gift or dilema...the only thing that we can do with any of this is to learn and victor over it by playing with it.
This is how her life evolved. This is the gift she opened herself to become. This is how dismaying and frightening all of our growths can become. This is how necessary all of the dilemmas are to our sanity. All of this she took within her. She walked barefooted into the lush forests and across the cold waters of the Ghia Chi. She became unbelievably powerful, compassionate, still, content, happy, victorious, wise and proud.
And then one day she learned that he had died.
Obviously,he had known it was coming. He left only a brief note with her name at the top. It read: "...all I can do to explain what has happened here relates to the deepest feeling of fulfillment and peace I ever found in this lifetime. It came to me always after having held the length of your naked body next to mine. To have held you. Then to leave with a richness which had dawned within me...very obviously one that came from the energy of you. I have discovered the source that energy's mystery and origin. I have chosen to walk straight into the heart of it. I am with you. Thank you so much for accepting my love."
