While re-reading these messages below this particular one 'jumped out at me':
P'Taah: 'If you took one cell of your body and you put it under a powerful enough microscope, indeed you would see within that one cell the birth of universes; the birth of stars. And if you would travel into this universe, then indeed what you would discover would amaze you absolutely. And you would realize that there is not one earth but millions of earths, not one reality but millions and millions of valid realities.'
Dennis here. Could any of you wise(r) ones explain in simple terms what P'Taah is saying here?
It is probably similar to the Hermetic saying
'As above so below' and vice versa As below so above
That sounds real great but what does it relly mean??
Food for thought and we are thinking Beings as well as human beings.
An interesting question you pose Dennis - I would not say I qualify as a wiser one, but I thought I would jump in with what this statement by P'taah "feels" like to me.
If it's true that all of the physical universe is contained within a space smaller than the head of a pin (which comes from good authority, as well as from the growing science of quantum physics) yet also is nearly infinite (a paradox, yes), then what I know from that is that I don't know much, and perhaps understand even less.
If in a tiny, tiny cell there is this vast universe of universes, then your 'as above so below' idea certainly fits.
Perhaps also, shockingly, the universe in which we live now in this present moment IS that tiny cell in some vast and huge being's body.
In my opinion, we are being told by P'taah, that there is much more to the physical realm than simply our planet, our solar system, and our Milky Way galaxy. Billions of habitable planets would mean there are millions and millions of 'earths' - meaning planets that are similar to earth with humanoids similar to us living on them. This hints too at the possibility that there are other types of life-sustaining planets that have on them sentient and self-aware non-humanoids. The idea of vast possibilities and myriad valid realities that are different from ours is suggested in this.
What does this mean? P'taah is trying to take us out of the box, to use a cliche. It helps us to begin to see things on a wider, less insular (less me, me, me, it's all about me, or all only about my family, about my city, my country, my planet) scale.
We're moving into a raised consciousness, and our awareness will need to include others who are part of the whole, but who we have had no awareness of, or little awareness of, in the past. His is a gentle reminder of what many of us are becoming more aware of - that "There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophies, Horatio." (Shakespeare-Macbeth).
If we are to join in a common purpose, with other civilizations who are on this path to Wholeness, this gentle reminder from P'taah helps to get the ball rolling in our consciousness, to open the door to the possibility that we aren't the only people and planet involved. His statement helps expand our minds to wider possibilities. And as you said, we are thinking beings as well as human beings.
The power of course is to use your 'feeling' sense in determining what is meant by some of these things our non-physical friends tell us. When the intellect follows the heart, when the thinking follows the feeling, you find that more truth is opened up to you.
Much love Dennis - and may I add that I have truly enjoyed the beauty of your recent and many postings. I have been so happy after reading them. Chris
Thank you for posting the quotes! I love them all:) This one could be the answer to your question:
Feb 12 2007 How many of you are hoping this is your last lifetime? Well, bad luck! Bad luck because you are already, all of you, existing in what you would term future lifetimes.
We shall explain how that works. You see, if you could imagine that reality, as you understand it to be, is like a wheel. And in the hub, in the center of the wheel, is the Void of Creation, Goddess/God, the Source -- whatever you want to label it. And this force throws out strands of energy and consciousness that come together to become galaxies, to become the blueprint of everything that you could imagine to be in a reality somewhere and more than you could possibly imagine.
Now, one of these strands of energy and consciousness, in a way, is a clump of energy that knows itself as the sourceness of humankind. And this strand of energy and consciousness throws off strands of energy and consciousness that you may call light-beings or angels, whatever you want to call them, and this throws off strands of energy and consciousness to become twelve major clumps of energies likened unto the families of humankind, which throws off strands of energy and consciousness to realize what you might call over-soul. And this over-soul throws out strands of energy and consciousness in which it experiences itself in all lifetimes past, present and future, all experienced from the interior to all of the spokes unto the outside, the rim of the wheel, which is what you experience as your life. So it is that you, in this existence, are absolutely connected to all of the strands that continue through dimensional reality unto the void itself.
Isn’t that exciting? " P'taah
Also your question reminded me of the meditation we did with jani (P'taah) in a workshop, going into "nature", into a flower, a rock, ourselves, the multiverses. It's all the same as you say in your post.
Thank you for your kind thoughts. I but respond to the posts with what I trust is a 'good heart' and I am delighted that they hit a responding chord with others here on the board. I too look forward to reading your treatises on here too :).
What you say is valid and reminds me of the line in a poem that ends '....to see the universe in a grain of sand...'
That is true for all that is i.e. material and the immaterial existence is really all 'made' of the one substance energy/plasma/'God stuff'/. I have heard it explained as a holographic universe where each small particle of 'matter' contains the blueprint of the whole Matraverse (my word) we know as the Universe.
You said something too, that reminds me of a theory I held (and still have not totally discarded), in my younger years. You said and I quote:
"Perhaps also, shockingly, the universe in which we live now in this present moment IS that tiny cell in some vast and huge being's body"
I once put forth the idea that since the planets are so far apart and resemble somewhat the molecular structure of matter (that is of several electrons revolving around a nucleus with the distance between the electrons being on a proportionate scale with the distance between the planets revolving around a star), then we could say that just as atoms go to make up molecules and these molecules make up elements and the elements make up matter: then by analogy, the planets revolving around a star(solar System) make up an atom, a galaxy makes up a molecule, a supergalaxy makes up an element etc etc onward and outward .... And a universe by projection makes up a bodily organ by comparison; and the whole of 'creation' the many-layered multiverse, makes up a Body. This Body some people would call God. Hope you get the gist of what I mean.
I called my theory 'The Atomic Theory of The Universe' and shared it with my more intellectually inclined peers only to discover, amid their jests, that this theory wasn't new but had been proposed by some school of philosophers in the dim dark past. I was most put out that I had not thought of it originally! That was to be my claim to fame!! I still can't comprehend why it met with such derision. If the Philosophers of old considered it sound enough to actually put it forward as a viable theory-well I am in good company. So yes we could well be a cell in the Body of God. Similar to a cell in our body.
Some say the day of our joining the 'Galactic Federation' is approaching quickly so P'Taah could be preparing us as you say.
Namaste Dennis
'If you put your heart to it you can do most anything'
That message really does explain it very very well. I had read that weekly quote quite a few times without it 'sinking in'!! I re-read it s-l-o-w-l-y now and pictured the wheel in my mind and the flinging out of matter, and this time it made sense and I got the picture and message. P'Taah is a great story teller and thus a great teacher. So thank you for directing me to that quote Marta. Yes we are all One. For many years I had been giving lip-service to the idea that there is ONE MIND, but I didn't fully understand what it meant until I read Ernest Holme's 'This Thing Called You', and 'How to Change Your Life'. He stressed that God is omnipresent (at all time everywhere at once) and explained it so well even I grasped the powerful Truth of that reality. If God is everywhere there is no place where God is not. Quantum physics has shown that matter is really a whirling mass of energy and that ALL things that exist is energy in some form or other. Therefore ONE SUBSTANCE exists every where at all times. I used to think of life and me and then ONE MIND outside of myself. But that is not the right way to view life. Life is... and that’s it. All is ONE Mind, all is energy, all is life expressing itself: all is God. Now I see that there is ONE SUBSTANCE only. And all that is made, all that is seen and not seen, in fact EVERYTHING is made from that substance as that is all there is. So ,yes, I now see and comprehend that ALL is ONE. All physical things, including us and our bodies and everything we are, is made out of God or, as I prefer Universal Mind. We (really everything) are Mind set apart . In our case we are set apart to be us. So I am Mind Dennisfied and Marta you are Mind Martafied. We are all part of the ONE and so a part of us would indeed show the characteristics of the All and just one part would glorify the whole. Well I do go on. But that was a major, major 'ah-ha moment' for me. We really do need to FEEL with the HEART and SOUL the Beingness of Truth and the Truthfulness of Being. So with this Namaste to you and All. Dennis
I'm glad you could FEEL the spokes of the wheel onto the hub and the multiverses.. this concept of ONENESS takes a lot to be able to take it in and really FEEL it..
Perhaps the easiest for us humans to first experience it, when we fall in love with someone. When we love someone so much, that we FEEL we are ONE with the other person..
Then you can FEEL the LOVE with everyone and everything else.. and it comes back to YOU.. full circle..like P'taahs "wheel"..
Because of who we are,{Love having a human experience} we retain a blue print energy, or cellular memory of the universal connection to the all. In this way we are also eyes to the soul of all that is, ever will be, and the energy that is reborn within the breath of existance. Much like the foot, or hand can not say they are not one with the body, and parts to the greater whole, so the cells within us remember our names, and orgin of birth. Much like the breath being also part of the wind, our union adds to the rememberances of all we are.
No matter what form we take, or how far we go, we will always remember home within us. This point, or cell understanding was the guideing light of our transformations, and awareness within us. We came here to grow, and magnify that which we are, Love. How could our cells not embrace the universe within us when we see from this place. Loving you, was loving me, and loving me, was also loving you.
