Curtailed by your own reality

[Internal Queries]

physical realities gave us a beginning, that's my view anyway.

a beginning to be sure but form follows function.

I think the quote answers your question adequaltey Neville.

You said it perfectly.

Even trippier is that the whole creation lived out it's history until a perfect balance was achieved.

There was an epic history of rising and falling cultures until we were stabilized.

Once stabilized,

There were still no people, no plants, no animals, no earth, no sun, all was still only the original ocean of thought. Physical reality is embedded in thought as that ocean was memory and potential. Once memory and potential thought through reality it split apart it's own stuff and created a space in between called the now. We are embedded in thought. The importance here is that we must remember the process and mimic it as before we materialize something as the great ocean did we also have to think it through so there will be no problems. There is no life without thought. This original ocean and physical reality mirror each other. Yet, there is much that is contained in spirit that has not yet materialized, of course this makes sense if we apply that spirit is memory and potential, obviously the future isn't here, yet it exists in spirit. We can go there at night when we dream where and there are only as many laws that you create. Some people can go there whenever they want, some realize we are dreaming right now and that our brains polarize the dream, how would you react seeing a very old tribe and see one of them morph from a human into a jaguar? We think it's impossible, we don't understand reality, I am no where close.

My two cents.
