our spirit and our body. Two separate items
[Introduction]
The Game
You have a mind and a brain. The brain is around eight pounds of mass. It collects and stores data plus auto controls many of the body functions and keeps things running smooth, much like the computer in your car does. The body is basically a machine that operates on around four watts of electricity.
Your mind is pure intelligent energy that has no shape, mass or size. Your mind does the decision making based on the information stored in your brain. Your mind has the emotions and feelings and deals with the drama in your life. Your brain does what your mind tells it to do much like your cars computer responds to your actions when you drive the car. You are not the car. You simply operate it. You are not your body. You simply operate it.
Your mind is your soul. Your soul is you.
The religious side is, When we die, our body goes into the ground and our soul goes into Purgatory or to Saint Peter at the Golden gate or something like that. Basically, the bible is telling us that our body and our soul are two different things. On Judgement day we (our souls) stand before God. We are our souls and our mind is also us. Our body is not actually us. We simply use it to get around on this planet. Make sense?
Now for the hard questions. Why are we here in these bodies? How many souls are out there floating around and where did they come from?
The beginning
Imagine an entity that is all powerful. A life form that can create anything with just a thought and knows everything even before it happens. Imagine something with the powers of a God. Even Gods need a reason to exist. Now, put yourself in their shoes. You would have no drama, no emotional experiences, No winning, no losing, no love or hate. You would feel nothing. Even Gods need these emotions.
Now, we're not talking about a single God but an infinite number of powerful entities. They all are aware of each other and communicate telepathically like ants. They all need a reason to exist. They were not always powerful and all knowing. At one time, like us, they had emotions and feelings of love and hate. By levitating to the level of Gods, they lost these feelings, these emotions, and they needed to find a way to step back to simpler times and recreate these feelings again. That's where we come in.
They created Earth and all of its creatures. (including humans).They would take their pure intelligent energy form, remove most of its abilities and memory. Then connect it with an unborn embryo. The child would be severely limited at birth and would require the assistance of a parent or two to survive. The entity would spend a lifetime enjoying the emotions and adventures within the child that they had lost when they became entities.
There became two divisions of entities. Those inside the creatures on Earth and those controlling the situation. At first, it was a hands-on game. The controllers often contacted the humans and spoke with the humans telepathically (today known as prayer). They often took human form or even an animal form when they made contact with the humans. Humans found they could summon the Gods (entities) through prayer. The humans could initiate telepathic communication with prayer. They built temples and made sacrifices and made offerings to the Gods to appease the Gods and hopefully receive the Gods blessings. Earth was one wild and crazy place at first. Danger lurked everywhere. The controlling entities created floods, famine, earthquakes, wars, life was exciting. Some of the entities didn't like the idea of giving up their memories and powers and to be born on the planet. They chose to create their own full grown human form and kept all their powers and memories, then they roamed the Earth creating havoc and breeding with the humans. The offspring from these trysts were born with DNA from both parents and they acquired some of the powers from their entity parent. Many of the offspring became powerful among their people. Some became Kings and Pharos while others were feared and hated by their neighbors. Hey were driven into hiding. They are our witches and warlocks. Some controlling entities created monsters and creatures like flying dragons and Minotaur's and Pegasus. The game was on. Greek and Roman times were hostile and full of adventure and drama. The entities had their reason for existing. Their creation was like a video game with them at the controls. Imagine a virtual reality headset that not only allowed you to see through the little plumbers 'eyes but you would have al five senses. You would believe that you are the little plumber. The other entities, the game controllers would create situations along your journey to save the princes. There would be hardships, failures, pain and some success. You would experience love, hate fear and pain along the way. Your soul, aka you, would experience all of the emotions of life that you had outgrown in the past.
The beginning again
We need to step back from Greek Mythology and look at the true beginning. The entities created the planet and stocked it with a single cell organism. This organism had the ability to propagate and mutate. The vast possibilities intrigued the entities because the end result was vague and difficult to foresee. They had a challenge. (a reason to live) The single celled life form functioned by stimuli alone. It simply nourished and propagated automatically with no thought involved. As time went on, the life form became more complexed. At one point, the entities decided to connect themselves to the life forms like we do with virtual reality headsets so they could experience the daily life of these creatures. That's when the entities started removing most of their powers, emptying their memories and connecting to the humans. By then, life was still “Eat or be eaten". Life was very hostile and dangerous. The entities enjoyed the challenge. There was allot of hands-on manipulation of the outcomes of many encounters. Cheating would be another term for controlling the outcome in disputes. Early man was aware of the powerful entities that they referred to as Gods. The Gods and men spoke quite often through mental telepathy. Men quickly learned that a happy God would take care of them and an unhappy God would make their lives a living hell so mankind worshipped their Gods and gave them offerings and built temples where they could communicate with them. The entities had egos and loved being worshipped. They bestowed many things on mankind that the other animals didn't get. Don't get me wrong, life was still violent but on another level for men than for most other animals. Mankind progressed to the Greek and Roman periods.
Another way to look at it is, pretend you are the little plumber that's trying to save the princes. Now pretend you are in an upgraded version of the video game. You not only control the little plumber but you can see through his eyes and hear through his ears. You feel, taste and touch as if you are inside the little plumber. In fact, you feel as though you “ARE” the little plumber. That's basically what we are doing in our bodies. We are the controller but for all we know, we may not even be here on this planet. We may be controlling from someplace else. In fact, this planet may only exist in our minds. We don't know what's real or imaginary. Like the little plumber, we are just hopping through the maze on our mission.
Our history
The history books tell us what took place from early man to present. The times and things that we can't explain, we refer to them as myths. At one point in time, the entities felt the game could not survive at its present rate so they calmed things down by creating the only one God theory for people to worship and they created ten commandments for people to live by. They also stopped communicating with the people directly. This was phased out slowly. At first, they could no longer take human form and roam the earth raising hell and breeding. A few angels were allowed to contact some people with information like the birth of Jesus and a few other things but eventually even that was stopped. Jesus was half entity and half human, He had some powers like healing the sick, helping the blind to see and walking on water was a few of his powers. Jesus set down the new rules for us to follow. Today, we still pray to God but the entities no longer communicate directly with us. They may still make miracles happen but we no longer talk with them directly but that doesn't stop us from praying. Old habits are hard to break.
TODAY
Today atrocities still take place. We still have floods, plagues, famine etc. and we still live by killing other animals. Most poor countries still kill chickens by grabbing the chickens head and swinging the chicken in a circular motion until the head tears away from the body and the chickens body runs around headless until its heart stops and it falls down. Then the chickens' body is dunked into scalding hot water to loosen up the feathers to make it easier to pluck the dead chicken. In modern wealthy societies, we hire this done. We don't experience the chicken's demise. We only see it prepared on our plate. People still try to communicate with the Gods through prayer not realizing that the portal is closed. Gods (entities) are still active in our daily lives but from a distance. They have adopted the Starship Enterprise rule of observing but not interfering. (They still interfere occasionally but not in plain sight. They're more subtle with their involvement.
Where did the entities, the Gods come from?
Mankind has progressed from the caveman to present. A hundred years ago, our forefathers couldn't imagine where we would be today. We can't imagine where we will be in a hundred years from now. Currently, we have computers that can solve problems in a split second that would have taken us years to solve just a few years ago. Technology is snowballing faster and faster every day. Scientists are finding ways to mesh computers with the human brain so we will know what the computer knows and vice versa. We went from dial telephones to beepers to cell phones in a few short years. Soon, we'll have a phone system implanted into our heads and we will communicate telepathically with just a thought. Science is busy deciphering the genetic code. They already have over 5% deciphered. The remaining pieces of the puzzle will fall shortly and we will know how the DNA system works and we will be capable of creating life forms like the ones in Greek and Roman mythology. The aging process will be understood. We will have the power to stop, even revers the aging process along with repairing any physical defects. At some point, we will become all knowing, all powerful and we'll shed our human form and become pure intelligent energy. We will become the Gods that we worship now...Sound like fun?
SUMMATION
Science technology is never going to stop learning. It feeds upon itself. Quantum computers and time crystals are on the cutting edge of science and the computers are being upgraded every day. Science won't stop until it is all knowing.Why do we watch movies? Why do we ride roller coasters at the fair or sky dive or search for adventure and enjoy watching sports games? We need the excitement and the emotions created by them.... Those are the same reasons the entities created Earth and currently inhabit our bodies. This isn't the first time they have done this. Mars at one time was inhabited until it lost it's protective shield. Its Ozone layer or something like that and became dormant. Maybe the entities will revive the planet and repopulate it. Maybe Earth is closing in on its end of cycle and will become dormant.Who knows. Main thing, we should view the religious books as history books. Sure, things will be exagerated or omited but the basic stories are most likely true as seen through the eyes of an uneducated nieve person of that time. We shouldn't consider the Greek and Roman stories as myths because we can't see them as true. Who knows how many planets are populated and who knows if all animals with brains have entities controling them. Do all animals have souls? Take a look at all religions and install the thought of entities being involved. Ghosts, entities that won't leave the game or prodigies being able to understand things well above their age or being able to play a musical instrument without any training. Many things we accept without questioning why, simply because we see that it exists. We don't question why it exists. Miracles and tragedies happen for no appearant reason and we seldom ask why. We examin how the pyramids were built and assume the stones were dragged over a hundred miles using logs as wheels or there being a canal where the stones were floated on barges to the site.We try to use logic but we should be looking for evidence. If the stones were dragged, there had to have been small villages along the way where the workers were fed and housed.There should be some evidence of how they were constructed.Tools,whatever. Then maybe, someone may have had the powers of levitation. Someone created the pyramids with just a thought. Aligning them with the stars for some unknown reason. We can't just think about how they were built but why were they built. If we couldn't see or touch them. We would probably consider them as myths. The idea of two sets of entities, one that controls us individually and the others that control the game with hardships and turmoil and successes. Why do we have love and hate? Why do we need challenges? Are we in a video game of the future ? Why do we have these emotions in our lives?
Please take your red pencil to these thoughts and make them your own. Hopefully, you will expand on this and write a book, make a movie or even start a new religion....Your choice.... Have fun my friend.... If you want more information, contact me at dusty-guy@hotmail.com
