Pyramid of Time

Pyramid of Time

  

Time is a construction of our mind used to measure experiences, distances and events.

(continued from Yesterdays Blog Post) 

I took the pipe home that night and began to make up a ceremony that I did frequently through the months in the privacy of my home by myself. It consisted of facing the sacred four directions of North, South, East and West and extending blessings and prayers to all living things. About a month later I picked up the book Return of the Bird Tribes. As I read along, I came to the chapters on White Buffalo Calf Woman and her pipe ceremony. As I read about the legend, I came to the section in the book that described the entire pipe ceremony and what I had made up in my little ceremony was White Buffalo Calf Woman’s ceremony word by word. The depth of Violets connection to time and what she could see amazed me, and yet within this gentle soul was an antiquity that I had rarely encountered in all my travels. She remained standing and beckoned me to sit next to her. As I sat, there were several other Aboriginal people who had come to see Violet. She turned to her assistant, a large Aboriginal woman with the deepest blackest eyes I have ever seen and Violet asked her, “Is he a goodie or a badie?” Her assistant went into dream time and slowly opened her eyes and said: ”He is in-between.”  Violet then looked at me with a large grin upon her face and said “I know who you are”. You are the one from Atlantis who bridged science and spirituality together and your back to do it again.” Then, she said, “You know that Aboriginal man you were seeing all the time?” (Remember, this is four years later.) I said, “Yes.” She said, “That was you. You have come home.”  She gave me my Aboriginal name and spent four more hours with me leading me on several Shamanic journeys. My life was not the same when I left her presence.

So when we think about how Quantum Physics is proving that time is a mental construct and what is real is consciousness, it raises the questions of how real can our past really be and how real is our projections into the future.  Worry serves no purpose nor does regret of the past.  What does make a difference is our focus of mind upon the eternal and timeless presence of who we are and being in the eternal NOW. 

We are quantum creating beings spinning out our world with every thought we think, emotion we produce and word we speak.  Let us spin our realities from a heart focused upon the knowingness of ourselves as the eternal traveler.  We are returning ourselves back to a state of oneness.

Pyramid of Time

Pyramid of Time

 

Time is a construction of our mind used to measure experiences, distances and events. 

 

If we lived by the Mayan calendar, we would be measuring time in states of being instead of actions or doingness.  The Roman Catholic Church developed the clock and time keeping. This development externalized the consciousness of man and woman and indoctrinated the world to what we can do rather than to who we are.

In the quantum field of possibilities there is no time.

There is consciousness void of a measuring instrument to determine what the mind perceives. One of the primary distortions of our consciousness is that time exists. We project our minds into the future with worry or anticipation. We send our minds into the past in regret or reminiscence. We rarely ever experience the sacred moment of “now” — where we really are. 

To be truly self aware we require to practice being fully present in the NOW. When I first conducted training’s in Australia several years ago, I remember flying above Sydney with the beautiful city, opera house, harbor and royal gardens down below. As I looked out the window of the plane, after a very long flight, I closed my eyes and in my minds eye was this old Aboriginal man staring me in the face. I opened and closed my eyes again and there he was. This vision never left me for my entire two month stay in Australia during my first trip. I didn’t think much of the experience other than it was a bit annoying to fall asleep every evening staring this old man in the eyes. 

The vision never spoke just appeared and stayed when ever my eyes were closed. 

Years past and I continued to return to Australia to conduct trainings and perform corporate consulting. One of my dreams was to do work with an Aboriginal healer because I believe that the indigenous people of our planet have secrets that our form of science is just beginning to catch up to. I have studied in India, Hawaii and with Native American healers and I deeply desired to be introduced to and work with an Aboriginal healer.After four years of wondering whether or not this would happen, one of my students approached me after one of my courses and asked if I would be interested in meeting the Aboriginal law keeper for Western Australia.  I said, “Are you kidding?”  So, we arranged a pick up for me and off we went to meet Violet.  I didn’t know what to expect from the meeting and was told that Violet would know when she saw me.
I entered her home and was taken to a slight, dainty Aboriginal woman about 70 years of age. She greeted me with a hug and whispered in my ear. “White Buffalo Calf Woman,” do you know why you’re here?
I looked at her with her big smile grinning back at me and I could only just nod yes. I have a history from many years back with the Lokota legend of White Buffalo Calf Woman and somehow Violet knew the depth of the Lokota legend to my soul. 
Now I must digress to another story for a moment so you fully understand the impact of Violet’s comment to me.
When I was a young man, I participated in a re-birthing training in San Diego, CA. I was one of about twenty participates. It was a great experience and during the closing circle I noticed one of the women in the circle.  She had, sitting before her, a buckskin bag with some object within it. When the talking stick came to her she looked at me and said, “I don’t want to do it, but the dream was so real and vivid and the message was that you would know what to do with it. I cannot do anything else but to give this to you. It is my most sacred object please guard it with care.” I took the bag and opened it and within the buckskin was a beautiful deer antlered medicine pipe.
