Foundation Part 2 - State vs Experience
During the early hours of March 25th, 2022, I lived through and experienced an event that changed my life profoundly. I received Love, knowledge, and guidance. There I was… I AM.
What follows is the continuation of my sharing of the knowledge, consciousness, Love, and guidance gifted to me that night. I am truly grateful for this opportunity to share. My hope is that you can enjoy and gain some, if not all, of what I received that night in March 2022… so that your life, too, can be transformed and your consciousness expanded.
If you haven’t read the previous post: Foundation Part 1 - BEINGNESS-ONENESS, I invite you to do so for clarity and continuity. Of course, you don’t have to… but I believe it will make this reading and your journey easier.
... And then, poof! Out of nowhere came the realization that if I, GOD-SOURCE, am to experience anything, anything at all, however small or big, there needs to be something else. Another state or something to give perspective to the state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS I’m in... To allow a comparison to enable me to experience...
... That state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS... And not just Being in it.
Let me expand on that. In that state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, of pure energy, of pure LOVE that I was in that night of March 2022, there was no experience. There were no thoughts, no movement, nor time, just pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS.
I want to emphasize the word “STATE” because there was no experience, just the state I was in, the state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, here and now... No time, no thoughts, just pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS. And I say no experience because, in that state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, there was absolutely Everything and Nothing at the same time... And there was zero movement... Complete Stillness. GOD-SOURCE.
From my consciousness of that night, there is a difference between a state and an experience. There is a state of being, of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, and an actual experience surrounding that state. When I was in the “STATE” of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, there was no experience. I was just Being. It may sound like a contradiction, but to me, there is no contradiction because these two things, the “STATE” and the “experience", are very different. They are two very different things. Two sides of the same coin.
Now, here’s the funny thing. When I was in that state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, I could not experience it while I was in it. Why? Simply because while in it, I had no reference point, nothing to compare it to. I was just IN IT. This state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS is also pure Stillness. No movement. And yet, it is Everything and Nothing all at once. This is very difficult to put into words because words are so limiting.
And from this Everything, that pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, I was conscious that to experience something, I needed two things:
First, I needed a reference point, something to compare it to. This reference point could be in the past or the future, but not in the present. If we don’t have a reference point, we cannot experience something. We can be IN IT but not experience it.
Second, I needed motion, movement. I needed time. The motion, the movement comes from looking at the state and then looking at the reference point. There must be motion, movement of some kind, for the process of comparing, of experiencing to happen. How else can we shift from one state to the other? Motion and movement cannot be or occur outside of time.
So, a state is fixed, static, with no movement and no time. To have an experience, we need time because an experience is a process that happens over time. It flows through time. If there is movement, we can compare things, we can experience. That’s where the reference point comes in. The reference point allows us to compare one state to another state. So, in our lives, we jump from state to state to state... It’s the jumping from state to state that happens over time and allows us to experience.
The state is always in the present, in the now, outside of time. The experience happens through time, from the past to the future. We, therefore, experience the world by continuously jumping from one state to another state, then to another state, and then to another state, and so on. The following state can be the same or almost the same as the previous one. Or the next state can be vastly different than the one before. What remains constant is that a state is always static because it happens out of time itself. The experience comes from the movement, the flow of states through time.
The best example I can give you to visualize this is how a video works. A video is a collection of still frames or pictures that are moving or changing at a certain speed, and this quick change of frames creates the illusion of movement. And this happens through time: no time, no movement, no experience.
Now suppose frames that succeed one another are identical. In that case, when they flow, we have the impression that nothing is moving or changing. If each frame differs slightly from the last one, we experience change or movement when they flow.
But each frame or picture is static (the state), while the movement, the number of frames per second projected on the screen and that eventually pass in front of your eyes, forms the illusion of movement on the screen. To flow through time… to be able to make sense of this illusion, we need a reference point from the past or the future — something to remember or to look forward to. We need to remember the last frame or anticipate the next frame.
To better visualise this notion of still frames flowing through time to create movement, please watch videos that will come out under the following search on YouTube : flipbook animations
If we can’t associate or link the last frame to the current frame, the current frame will just be a frame. It will be a static frame, a STATE. But suppose we can associate it with the previous one. In that case, there can be continuity, there can be a flow, and there lies the experience. Based on that night’s events back in 2022 and the state of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS I was in, that's my comprehension of it.
So, in essence, we are in a state, then we skip into another state, and so on, and the skipping from state to state allows us to experience life as we know it. This skipping makes sense because we compare it to what we have already experienced or to some sort of anticipation of what we would like our life to look like in the future. This... is the flow of life that we experience.
Now, out of that realization of pure BEINGNESS-ONENESS, out of that expanded consciousness of wanting to experience and not just BE, something swelled. And in that swelling was the intent. Not a thought — simply an intent. This intent, in turn swelled too, and then there was a thought. This thought was of creating a double of everything I AM, of GOD-SOURCE, to create for myself, ITSELF, a reference point. A reference point to experience everything completely...
