It's All in Your (Nonexistent) Head

I want to talk a little about how this is all in your nonexistent head, why we have to totally convince you of that, and by this give more focus as to where this is all going. I'll present it as a series of case histories and episodes, some of which are my own experiences. I'll probably have some facts wrong, and I don't mind being corrected, but the gist will be intact. If my facts are wrong, and you feel it's important, point it out in a forum or something.

Now that I've written the entire document, and I rattled it out as fast as I could type it, it topic hops a little, but I'm not going to change it. It's solid for making the points that it makes.

In The Holographic Universe, there was a description of a party at which a hypnotist was present. He wound up hypnotizing a young girl. I think she was about 12 or so. The hypnotist instructed her father to take his watch off and hang it on his finger behind his back with the watch face facing towards his daughter. He then told the girl that her father's body was transparent, or maybe even that it no longer existed, and then instructed her to look at the watch hanging in the air and tell them the time. She did. When he brought her out of the hypnosis, they asked her what she saw. If I remember correctly, she said, "I saw the watch hanging in the air."

In The Life and Teachings of the Masters of the Far East the author and others were in the presence of an apparent miracle worker, I think in India. He took an orange seed, threw it on the ground, covered it, it sprouted and grew a tree before their eyes, which then bore fruit. At that moment, a man, an apparent true master, approached and roundly chastised the man, sending him away in shame, explaining that he was a type of fakir, a magician in the vein of street magicians, and had merely used his skills to hypnotize them into believing that they had seen what they had seen. He then took an orange seed, threw it on the ground and covered it, it sprouted and grew a tree and bore fruit right before their eyes, which they then were actually able to eat.

Now, had the true master not shown up and done that, and had they gone ahead and peeled and eaten the evidently "fake" oranges, could there in fact actually be any difference based upon what we're saying in the Emerald? If this is all just perception, what could the true master have been trying to get across? How is it that his oranges were alleged to be real while the charlatan's were not? Was it that he was somehow doing what he was doing independently of their observation? With the first guy, the fakir, had there been an observer standing somewhere away from them, would that observer have seen the fakir's orange tree? And by the same token, would an observer standing away from their group have seen the true master's orange tree?

As a sidenote, I was intrigued in watching The Illusionist because one of the Illusionist's "tricks" was the near instantaneous growth of an orange tree, which seems to be somehow an archetypal symbol embedded deeply in the psyche. I'm not entirely sure why I know that, but I do. Maybe Peter will actually read something I'm writing and tell us what he gets about orange trees. If he does, I'll bet that it will be completely unexpected. That being the case, then perhaps the point of the book was not so much to make a distinction between the "fake" and "real" orange trees, but to remind the reader of something as symbolically represented by orange trees/oranges.

Let's pursue this one a little further. Nothing in this mental level is as it seems. In other words, what could an orange tree represent on an archetypal level? Let's look at archetypes first, as an understanding of the power of symbol as critical to understanding, eventually, the depths of the Blue Emerald as a symbol. From Wikipedia: "An archetype...is an original model of a person, ideal example, or a prototype after which others are copied, patterned, or emulated; a symbol universally recognized by all. In psychology, an archetype is a model of a person, personality, or behavior." Also from Wikipedia but with more specific reference to Carl Jung's use of archetype: "The use of archetypes to illuminate personality and literature was advanced by Carl Jung early in the 20th century, who suggested the existence of universal contentless forms that channel experiences and emotions, resulting in recognizable and typical patterns of behavior with certain probable outcomes."

One of the events in Carl Jung's experience was with a patient who'd had recurring dreams about scarabs. At the moment they were talking about it, a tapping was happening on the outside of the great psychologist's office window. When he pulled back the curtain, there was a scarab there, flying against the window, in Paris. The scarab was of the type that you see in Egypt, and not Paris. The scarab was especially venerated in Egypt, and very well may have been the symbol which, once stylized, became the Fleur de Lys as the symbol of France. An entire book could be written about that symbol alone, and in fact there have been many, which themselves describe my own lineage, as it were, but we'll not go into that now.

This advent, by the way, was involved in Jung's development of synchronicity, or meaningful coincidence. Look at the word "coincidence" and you'll know why I'm so frequently using the word "cooperative." Coincidence doesn't refer to randomness, at all. It refers to at least two events converging to become a single event, pretty pure to what we've been discussing around here: co and incidence.

But why was the scarab so venerated in Egypt? If someone Googled that you'd probably get some stock explanation that occurs because Sir Budge wrote a book about it, but there will always be layers upon layers of meaning. These layers of meaning, by the way, is what I'm pretty good at recognizing in order to investigate. I'm very good at seeing patterns as they relate throughout, or are superposed upon, the whole dream. Anyway, what is the scarab's meaning as an archetype to the ancient Egyptians? And is the meaning arbitrarily set? In other words, can you change the archetypal meaning of any given symbol? I don't know why not.

Let's give a direct example of that, and again I hope I can get Peter to read some of what I'm writing. One day a Blue Emerald member who is pretty close to us, and is in fact just starting to tear through the Membrane (I wish he'd contribute more), called Peter complaining of some nagging stomach thing, I think it was, and wanting help. He caved in and called having tried everything, which included Aquaware and ALIIX (if you don't know what these are, it doesn't matter for now), two of our powerful software creations. Peter said, "Go to Google, to images, key in coffee beans, select the third result, print it and put it in your back pocket. The problem will pass in a day or so." Well, the incredible thing is that it did. So, how do coffee beans relate to stomach disorders? Is it on some archetypal level? Did Truth speak to Peter from some quite fundamental level and assign meaning in that moment to an image of coffee beans? What we would call "the cube of creation" tends to spill out some pretty off the wall stuff sometimes.

I'm an advanced hypnotherapist, and there was a book we were required to know about called, I think Hypnotherapy Scripts. The point of the book was this: get your subject into a state of hypnosis, or what I might call robotic receptiveness, and then read them a script right out of the book. It had an index of conditions, so if the subject was having trouble with bedwetting, as an example, put them "under," and then read them a script about flying a kite, and it would work, unbelievably well. Now I won't sign off in blood on that it was the script about flying a kite for bedwetting, but the point is how could a story about flying a kite be related to bedwetting? And the book was truly that abstract. It would be like saying, if someone wants to quit smoking, put them "under" and read them a story about an ape, and it would work astonishingly well.

The point is, that whatever the appearance and configuration of the symbol is in this perceptual level it nevertheless has a truer meaning on some truer, or more fundamental, perceptual plane. Do you see what I mean by nothing in this perceptual plane is truly what it seems? In other words, if you're looking at a rock on a mountain, is it truly a rock? In an alternate reality, a more fundamental reality, it might be a sleeping creature right out of Tolkien. Let's pursue this one a little further. A few years ago Peter called and asked me for clarification on something I was saying in stuff I was writing in FirstWave, which served as a model project for The Blue Emerald. I said, "Well, let's look at it this way. Did you see the births of your children?"

"Yes."

"Now shift your perception to the fifth dimension and watch the birth of your children and tell me what you see."

"An aperture opened in this weird spaceless environment and geometry is pouring out."

So, on a truer or more fundamental mental (hm, funda-mental) level Peter's children were nothing but geometry. If you were to proceed to an even truer mental level, they're nothing that is even visible, such as an invisible waveform, or what we might call frequency, but not even frequency has validity in the idea of all this being a dream. But I think you get the idea of what is being expressed here. That there are truly an infinite number of mental levels, some of which are, shall we say, more primary than others, where, for example, maybe like thinking, or similar thinking, causes "everything" to congeal into a mental level that seems more solid or which can be consistently "occupied," such as this one we refer to as the 3rd dimension (just a label).

There was another occasion where Peter and I were hiking up what was a bizarre mountain. At the top, with his sight, he was describing what was really there, and not what I was seeing with my eyes. We walked past an interestingly shaped rock about four feet long and two feet wide, and he gave it a wide berth, because what he was seeing was...well, I'll quote him, "...and that's...I don't know what that is, but it's an animal of some kind, and one like I've never seen. Scary fucker."

So, what does that rock look like on the mental level of the fairies and gnomes? It probably has a face and talks, is probably even a smartass. The point is that the rock exists on all mental levels, but what is it on each? The one thing you can be sure of is that on all mental levels it is data that is the same as you. On "our" level it's a rock. On another level it's a bizarre creature. On another level it's geometry. On another level it's a waveform. On another level it's the iconic lips of the Rolling Stones.

As an analogy, let's use a computer. On the hard-drive you have raw data, formlessness, 1s and 0s. That's one level. In order to assemble an image and make it available as something recognizable on another level, you have a level which contains the mapping information, which is like having a structure template in charge of how to configure "dots" to make shape and color, and which is another level. On yet another level, the monitor, you have images as programs designed to appear in some recognizable form, drawing from the fundamental level of formlessness in order to display something which results from imagination (image-in-action).

What's important to know at this point is that all of that dreamdata thinks, perceives, is absolutely sentient, is every bit as sentient as you believe yourself to be, no matter what its apparent form. As such, you can talk to it. It waits to be spoken to, commanded, to be told by visualization what to morph into. I'll give yet another example. A member of the Emerald slipped on some ice and broke her shoulder. If she'd like to come forth and refute or correct anything I'm saying, so she shall. She was in terrible pain. Hated the pain pills. She relented and called Peter and asked for help. As Peter was deciding what to do, to conjure and release his incredible power and reconfigure the whole universe, a small blue Gumby-like entity appeared to him and said, "Hi. I exist to place myself on the front of ___________________'s shoulder to help heal and relieve the pain. May I go now?" Peter said "Sure. Go." Needless to say, he was stunned. Then, a red replica of the first appeared and said, "Hi. I exist to position myself on the back of ____________________'s shoulder to help heal and relieve the pain. May I go now?" Peter said, "Yeah. Go. Git 'er done."

See, the data is intelligent and can form itself into the planned solution to a planned need. You could say that ______________________ broke her shoulder for the very purpose of facilitating these entities' occurrence from the formlessness of the dataflow as a means to teach Peter something. The beauty of understanding this on a deep level is that the "universe" will always produce the solution simultaneously with the problem, which is just like saying that the problem never existed to begin with.

Why am I discussing this? Because if you want to understand what you're really dealing with, for instance for the purpose of manifestation, you might want to know this stuff so that you can go beyond creative visualization and believing that you're actually manifesting stuff. Don't be overwhelmed, because you don't have to be able to define something, or see it, you just have to know that what you see with your senses isn't necessarily what the thing observed is, and if you can talk to the thing on a level and in terms that are a truer system of in-form-ation, then you can in that way tell the data what to be.

So, if you're telling already existent and intelligent dreamdata in some apparent form what you want it to be, is the idea of manifestation even valid? No. In like manner, if you're a cooperative in some healing advent, you're telling disease dreamdata, intelligent and with its own programmed agenda, what you want it to be. Albeit, you're doing so according to the dictates of the Dream as a whole because it's the Dream that's going to toss it into your path and "force" the decision.

I know you're thinking, "Well, I already manifest and I've never had to know what you're saying." A valid point, but what you've apparently "manifested" to this point is what has been required to get you to an ever deeper understanding, and which, for all intents and purposes, brought you here. It's also important to note that the dreamdata, once again, is nowhere else but in your nonexistent head.

At this point, it's also important to point out that based upon what's being said here you are never creating anything. Everything's already created. All of the total volume of dreamdata already exists and does nothing but change its apparent form according to what is needed by the Dream as a whole, as was pointed out with the two Gumby characters above. What you're doing, instead, is telling already existent dreamdata to be something else. But we'll pursue this further elsewhere. It's what is known in alchemical parlance as transmutation.

Back to symbols/archetypes. The Blue Emerald is one of these, shall we say, major archetypes, a contentless representation of information that is deeply embedded in one place only: your psyche. There is no collective human consciousness or psyche; there is only your psyche. This will be explained further in an upcoming Student & Guru. Like moths to a flame, The Blue Emerald, already in your psyche, has called you here in order to remind you of something.

Now, enough of that ramble. Back to the examples.

There is a fairly famous case history of a woman who has type III diabetes, self-injected insulin for years. I think this example was also in The Holographic Universe. She also suffered from multiple personality syndrome (can't ever recall what the more modern label for that is). When therapists or researchers or whomever invite the second personality to come forth, they draw blood and there is no diabetes. The second personality simply doesn't have it. If that isn't indication enough that it's all in your head, I don't know what could possibly do a better job of it. I looked further into the second personality, and she in fact was sort of haughtily indignant that the "main" personality would have such a repulsive condition.

Why does this woman have this fascinating and bizarre collection of conditions? One reason: to become a documented case history to show the "rest of us" what is true. And she's not alone. There are dozens of cases very similar to hers now on record, all for the same reason, plus the fact that they're part of a great story. We have to have phenomena in order to stretch limits of perception, or belief, and perception and belief are precisely interchangeable terms.

Now you can juxtapose this against what healing really is about, miracle or otherwise. It's not a matter of whether or not you have the capability to heal something, it's a matter of whether or not it's time for a given illness to be something else. However, and this is huge, if you have doubts about your capability, then you can count on the fact that it's not time for the "illness" to be something else. Sometimes it works, though, despite doubt, and we'll get to that in a sec.

A further example along these lines, and I'll give a couple of my own - I think it was in one of Gregg Braden's books where he talks about a video where there are three Chinese practitioners in some sort of hospital who, on cue, begin chanting "already accomplished" as they walk around a patient. On x-ray video of the abdomen of the patient a large ovarian cyst simply fades from view and ceases to be over the course of a minute or two.

Although they were chanting in Chinese something that apparently closely approximates the words "already accomplished" they could have as easily been chanting "it's not real" over and over and they would have been saying the same thing.

So, as for my examples. Years ago, maybe 13 or so ago, when I thought I was a shaman my uncle was diagnosed with kidney stones by x-ray. He was in tremendous pain. My whole family and he were at our cabin at the time, in the outback of Utah where I'm thinking of having the starparty/forehead-touching-for-membrane-piercing party this Summer sometime.

I went into full-on chant mode, smoking native tobacco and blowing it on the side of his body with the afflicted kidney. I'd surrounded him with stones and crystals, and placed one or two on his body. I had a feather in my hand. I was thinking it's not there. It's just not there. I held that in my head for a solid 20 minutes. I'd actually had a few drinks, which I think may have helped me to believe my own bullshit.

The next day he was pain-free. They were gone, and I knew it. He didn't believe it. He decided it must have been misdiagnosed and that he actually just had shingles, which can, in his mind, pass quickly. Until recently he didn't believe the events of that night, and maybe still doesn't, but he did say to me, "Jason, that was transcendental. Thank you." I'll add another anecdote to this right now for further example.

Recently he began having pain in his calf. He went to an MD who I take it has a more holistic approach to conditions, which means that he's a healer and not really an allopathic doctor. This doctor told him he suspected that at some point he'd been bitten by a brown recluse spider and that, as happens in rare cases, somehow his body sequestered the venom in some sort of protective sac. Then, literally 25 years later, the sac lost its integrity and the venom, now somehow ameliorated, got into his blood and was making his calf hurt. Apparently the venom was no longer necrotic, but created swelling and pain in a big way.

It got into his ankle and toes and made them swell and discolor and became very miserable, even dangerous, possibly leading to gangrene from infection. He went to the hospital. My mom called me and said, "OK, let's whip something up for him. I'll convince him to get out of there before they kill him." I'll give some more examples below as to why my mom calls me for things like this.

So, I thought, yep, it's already done but I gotta do something to prove it. So I took a pinch of Activ8 (now Alkhem) powder, dissolved it in water, opened the Temple of Code, thought the alchemical water was for my uncle's toes while seeing his toes as normal. He visited my mom a couple of weeks ago (today is May 30, 2009) and she sucked a dropper full and squirted it into his mouth before he could protest, and 20 minutes later the swelling was gone and the pain almost completely diminished. This is routine for me.

Now, I'm not bragging. I understand it was time for the illness to be something else, but the effectiveness of the action is directly proportionate to my lack of doubt. But how does one overcome doubt? It's like a chicken and egg thing. If we have to accomplish something in order to overcome doubt, that implies the presence of doubt to begin with. Right? So why does it work? Only one reason: something else is doing the work despite your own doubt. What that something is is ultimately where we're going with one of the pieces of all this.

It also begs the question: well, if my uncle wasn't consciously in on the action, and he wasn't because he's only now becoming a believer, then why did it work? The answer's simple: obviously because it was time, and secondly because I was in effect communicating with a more fundamental element of him which doesn't require his conscious permission to do something. Our conscious selves are almost completely uninvolved with what's going on until we begin to get conscious of the truth of what's going on. That more fundamental element of people will be discussed more below.

The only difference between years ago and now is that years ago I was communicating with that more fundamental, and less programmed, level, without knowing it, and now I'm doing it while knowing it. That's the only difference, and is just another form of knowing.

About ten years ago a dear friend, a woman I wound up dating, had suspiciously enough an ovarian cyst the size of a lemon. She was scheduled to have it surgically removed. I told her I could get rid of it. She didn't believe me, but I said, "Hey, it's an opportunity to experience something that in your mind would be miraculous. They'll probably want to take an x-ray before your surgery, and that way you'd be able to see for yourself that it worked." She agreed. We lay together on her couch (she had her suspicions that I was just trying to cop a feel!). Because of some small presence of my own doubt, I told her it would take three sessions, in effect issuing an edict that would become self-fulfilling, of course. I put my hand over her ovary and held in my head that the cyst wasn't there.

The fact is that right then it was no longer there, but because I'd "blown" it and said it would take three sessions, that all by itself "caused" it to be there. The moral of the tale is that we only got two sessions in before she went in for surgery. They took the preop x-rays and, sure enough, the cyst had been reduced by 2/3rds, precisely as I'd commanded right from the beginning. The doctors were blown, as it had been only a couple of weeks since the original x-ray. But, what the hell, she thought, let's go ahead and get the rest of it. They cut her open and went ahead and took the ovary and a few more things while they were at it.

Also in The Holographic Universe was a tale of an anthropologist, I think, who was studying natives somewhere, I think in Borneo, or at least in that neck of the woods. He was concealed in some foliage watching two young girls, one of which was a few years older and was evidently giving some instructions to the younger. At one point, if memory serves, she became slightly frustrated and commenced a beautiful magical dance, in the midst of which an entire stand of trees faded from view, to the great astonishment of the observing scientist.

A few minutes later, she brought it back through another magical dance. Same questions: was it hypnosis or did it actually happen, and is there a difference? And if hypnosis, did she know the scientist was watching and thus hypnotized him? If not hypnosis, and this objectively happened, then we know beyond any question that it was a communication between herself as data and the trees as data, and that through her dance she "pleased" the dreamdata that represented the trees enough to either fade from the subjective view of all observers or to blend into or become momentarily the data that represented the background, in effect becoming camouflaged by the sky, or actually becoming the background sky.

And then, in reverse, pleased it enough to make itself subjectively visible once again.

Let's pursue this one further. We know what skilled hypnotists are able to do. Take Chris Angel, for example. Sandi and I have made quite a study of this guy because he's a shining example of a hodge-podge of skills. We've peered into his head at the time he was doing certain things, well at least inasmuch as the time we were watching him do something that had been prerecorded. He's highly skilled at all the diversion and sleight-of-hand stuff, and he's also a highly skilled hypnotist/mentalist.

An example is when he takes four junior high school kids and has them lift a car. The first thing he does is put them "under" and gives silent instructions. A few seconds later, he says aloud, "Now lift the car." Those are very specific instructions, said aloud, as a command. They walk over, position themselves each at a fender, and lift the car like it's cardboard. Now, the questions: did he silently tell them the car was light? Or did he silently tell them that gravity doesn't exist, which is precisely the same idea.

Guess which one it was. Neither. He told them to lift the car, and nothing more. Had he told them either of those two, that the car was light or that gravity didn't exist, the introduction of those ideas to the otherwise nonprogrammed level of their minds would have become the notion, and therefore the reality, of limitation, just through acknowledgement. Since no potential of limitation was introduced to the truly robotic and emotionless portions of their "minds," the mind behind everything, they simply acted according to command. Now, it's worth pointing out that virtually all of the data in operation in this dream is quite like that, robotic, knowing no limitation, but some of it, with some reasoning capacity, will simply refuse to do what you tell it to do because it is subject to a set of "laws" that we will be discussing in later documents.

The same thing "spontaneously" happened to the lady that lifted the bus off the child. You might recall this particular story made national news. She didn't have time to indulge in doubt. She had to act. There wasn't any time to debate whether or not it could be done. There was only time to get the bus off the child. She, like an automaton, and if I remember correctly she later reported being completely automatic about it, no thoughts involved, just beside herself - she walked over and did the job.

Is this or is this not a definition of a superbeing?

So, where are we going with this? It should by now be apparent. We told you we were going to create a family of Ultrabeings, and that's what we're gonna do. A big responsibility, yes, but we'll do it, and we're going to have to figure out just how some of this is done according to the rules extant in this modern context. How this is to be done on an individual level begins with Alkhem because to get closer to understanding all this as dreamdata in an inescapably lucid way (enlightenment), the dissolution of all that is unnecessary is the same thing as dissolving your limiting perceptions, which is once again interchangeable with belief. Perception is belief. We can't stress it enough: get Alkhem and get moving with your scheduled acceleration.

What is meant by that? It's quite simply this. All "ages" and "times" and "epochs" are all happening right now, but how this video game works requires the presence of an entity known as Time. Yes, time is also an entity, intelligent, sentient, and can sit down and have tea with you on some level of mind.

I'm going to "randomly" toss this in. Do you know why time-travel isn't possible? Because there isn't anything solid to travel to. You can conjure images up from the all-pervasive hard-drive if you want, but you can't visit another timeplane because, quite literally, it doesn't exist.

The legends we have of superbeings are true, of people who could levitate, disappear, teleport, manifest-on-demand, etc. I myself didn't fully believe that we were going to accomplish anything like this until the last five months or so, a few months after my own Membrane piercing. In all of those "past ages" we figured out how to perform superstuff, and always with the mental dreamtools that were available at that mental timeplane, and always equal to the "position of advancement" of the timeplane itself. What is meant by that? Pretty simple. Even though what is to be accomplished will be the same thing, the technique for accomplishing it might be different from age to age, and it always has to be figured out according to the age in which it is being figured out. It's a friggin' video game, folks. And all this is is a repetitive cycle of accomplishing the same things. And why? As stated elsewhere, to demonstrate for sleeping split consciousnesses what is possible, to stretch their own self-limitations and place it squarely in the province of imagination, and secondly, because it's fun.

The kicker to this is that I think this age's design is to actually exceed the level of accomplishments of the past, thus Jesus' admonition, "Greater things than I have done shall ye do."

We're using The Blue Emerald, that archetypal symbol embedded within your psyche, to mine the information necessary to accomplish pretty much one objective: the removal of all doubt, which is the same thing as removing all programming that spawns doubt.

So, it should also be apparent to some extent that given all of the above information, enlightenment isn't really necessary. And it's not. There are people in the world who can put their hands through walls and disappear from one spot and reappear in another, but believe it or not many of them still believe they're IN a world, imagination though it may be, and that they're simply one with everything that they believe to actually exist. There is no actual existence other than as imagination. What enlightenment does is make it almost immeasurably easier to know that you're not working with things but with dreamdata that is everywhere and nowhere, making you unequivocally everywhere and nowhere, precisely as Neo discovered in The Matrix.

If you want more of my own examples let me know in a forum or something and I'll do another document. Some of my other examples have to do with my brother Josh's recovery. You can read his story under his membership profile. He still doesn't believe that his miraculous recoveries were due to stuff with which I'd cooperated to effect the on-schedule miracles. Maybe someday he will. Maybe he'll even read this document. It was great fun blowing those doctors and nurses away, and "I" did it with water.
