Oh! Could Be!

Alfred Dalrymple

Romance

We are made of the stuff of the universe...the laws of which are harmonic. At our centers we are the same...there between thoughts. During much of man's history, however, the use of awareness has been dictated by major institutions. The universal center, the "stuff", has been buried...as trillions have been spit on, cast aside, beheaded, blown-up, stoned, burned, stripped of property. Institutionalized thought has floodlighted the dark parts of mind...euthanizing the fear of mortality...this assuring the power of dominators. As we emerge from this darkness...we must study how man, body and soul, relates to the awareness beyond himself. Why do we have "I"? If we are made of the stuff of the cosmos, what is throughout existence which allows "I"...and is "I" necessity to the entirety? There seems to be awareness beyond and above man...as part of man and all existence. At the center of all the \"stuff\" is an equality that refers to the definition of the awareness...which is love of existence and of what exists *** Man has the free-will to see reality or bury it. If he chooses to live far from the center of himself...in the clouds of "brainwash"...he is free to do so. But in that place he is, effectively, a robot. Man\'s make-up shares the laws allowing the cosmos to be. If the cosmos is not a machine, neither is man...at his center or near to it. Free-will defines man if awareness is a central determinant of the physical laws that allow existence. Again, I speak of man at ornearhis center. As we escape the unquestioned certainties of Institutions, mostly institutionalized "church", Science must consider that awareness precedes DNA and not the other way around...or Science will plunge us into an even deeper age of robotism.

Politics & Social Sciences

Philosophy

Institutions have effectively brainwashed and dominated man's mind for centuries, and now science can do likewise by saying that we make decisions according to what our genes dictate. Of awareness...what do we share with the entirety? If the cosmos has I, in us, how else does it have it? And can we lose ours? The cosmos...always becoming in its continuance, is not a machine, and neither is man. Awareness precedes DNA and not the other way around. Not through institutionalized Church or Science are you without freewill.

Religion & Spirituality

In this universe one thing follows another. We relate to the speed of light, and say nothing can travel faster. Today, we know that two entangled bits of matter, though separated by vast distance, immediately co-respond to stimulus applied to one. Some say there was no message sent. The co-response is due to the oneness of reality. I believe messages can be sent over a vast distance immediately. This retains the separable nature of reality, and assures that man has self-emanated choice"free will. Man is not a machine, programmed to act according to what his genes dictate. Time and distance are relative also, and primarily, to the immediacy of consciousness.

Awareness As the Ground of Being

On the Everest trail, Alfred hires Nell Barton, Jangmu Sherpa to be porter, and to listen when he reads from his new book. Alfred believes that the Ground of Being is consciousness. He thinks time, distance, and size are part of it as is mass and its laws. He says consciousness affects this as to movement and immediacy allowing energy to be mass. Energy equals mass. E = M. The immediacy of consciousness allows the separable nature of reality assuring free will. The human "I" can make choices as separate from genes, other men, or the "I" of the Ground. Nell tells him his mother's milk had laughing gas in it. She questions, criticizes, and often agrees. Then very near the sun, they shower together and wash away the dust of human thought.
