Me, No More, No Less

by Rich Stammler

As published in the Volume 6 - Fall 2001 edition of Brass Ring Bookstore Perspectives

 
I peer out at my reality with eyes
suited for three dimensions
but they are poor copies of the vision
that pierces the veil of the multidimensional.

That vision melts the wall of opacity
to perceive realities in past and future
in this same psychic space
we call the earth plane.

It is to keep the ego personality from overloading
so I must be satisfied with fleeting glimpses
of the multiverse in which
I have my simultaneous existences.

These fleeting glimpses arrive
in vague intuitions
and amorphous emotional structures
or, sometimes powerful intuition.

But it is primarily in the dream state
where I am free to drop the ego perspective
and in my native form
explore the other facets of me.

Each personality peers
into a very alien world
to my constrained eyes,
in which each is denizen.

Through my experiences I contribute knowledge,
and insight to the entity that is me
that part that assimilates all
and is my greater core being.

Attenuated by the readiness of each aspect
all is shared,
all is available as each is ready
depending on the maturity of that personality.

But you ask, "why am I?"

Ah,
the eternal question
to which I finally have an answer,
at least to my satisfaction.

I am here because the entity
in its pure light form,
a portion of First Source
of which we are all a fragment.

Because that core being
cannot, in its formless state,
experience the more dense,
more slowly vibrating universes.

This is the physical,
the earth plane
so comfortable to you and I
(or—uncomfortable)

The entity must create a vehicle
and split off a portion of itself
in order to experience this reality,
which is tuned for rapid emotional growth.

It does this to Become.
It Is only to the extent that it experiences
and it experiences through vehicles like you and me.
It is, like you and I, the totality of our experiences.

It is this that provides the knowledge,
and insight for the entity
to enable it to become and in becoming
it forever is.

Our physical life is an illusion
for time and space does not independently exist
but is created in the course
of the experience of this personality.

Space is created by our energy.
As we perceive (and think) we create,
the quantum wave collapsing into something specific,
a time and space event.

The movement of time is our physical propensity
to thread events together into a string
like pearls aligned to form a creative object.
We create a lifeline with certain experiences.

In reality it could be threaded in any order
and each order would form unique experiences,
unique lessons to create a life
and another facet of the core entity.

Our position on this earth plane is also
more interconnected than we assume.
It is Gia to be sure, but something much more,
something much more intimate.

We not only depend on the phylogenetic ladder
to hold our lofty position
above the rest of the life forms on earth.
We, the purveyors of the kingdom.

We are simultaneously each of the rungs,
now.
We are them and they are us.
I am also you and you are also me.

No more, and no less.
