Sky Hero, book excerpt

[Guest guest]

This book is pretty good. Bill gives a more comprehensive description

of the mechanics of " mind/Mind " than I've seen elsewhere...

" All experience is a product of our mind, and all experience is

dreamlike in nature. We have learned to believe that our mind's

participation in reality is awareness. But what we have come to call

awareness, the awareness we use in our experience in consensus

reality, is really the activity of our mind solving the problems of

our perceived reality. Our awareness of our holographic self is

filtered through our paradigm and presented as a comparison or

evaluation of ourselves with others and our place in this movie. It

is through this process that we believe our awareness originates, but

the process itself virtually eliminates the awareness of our nature

as holographically connected beings. The resulting presentation, the

presentation we think of as awareness, is not awareness at all.

Severely filtered to give the illusion of separation from the whole,

what we think is awareness is actually the activity of our mind and

its paradigm.

 

" And we have been taught to give our attention to this activity. We

have learned to accept this limited presentation and are rewarded for

giving our attention to it. When we are able to focus our attention

on this activity we gain a " place " in our reality and arrive at what

we believe is a self-identity.

 

" Attention to this paradigm activity, this problem solving activity,

is the foundation on which our social structure is based and is the

driving force for our education system. In our social and

technological paradigm, cultures that have not developed attention to

this process are viewed as backward. Yet, these cultures often

display abilities that cannot be defined within our paradigm. We know

of cultures that never invented the wheel or telescope, yet have

mapped the solar system in a detail that we are just now able to

verify. Isolated, seemingly backward tribes of people have been found

that have accurate descriptions of the stars beyond our solar system.

Other cultures remained isolated in one place on the earth, yet

possessed information and detailed drawings of all the peoples of the

earth. Our scientists ponder these conundrums, searching for an

explanation that fits within their paradigm. But they have never

looked within; they have never looked to the process by which our

mind constructs reality.

 

" Being consumed every waking moment of our day by the problem solving

activity of our mind is not awareness at all. Each and every thought

we experience has its origin in Mind -- in the pure holographic

potential of The One. There is no other source of thought. Each and

every thought arises in Mind without separation, limitation, or

meaning, and in full Balance between the potential for experience and

holographic awareness of The One. Our natural identity is not

separate from the whole. This holographic awareness is available just

behind the activity of the paradigm, behind the thought activity we

have learned to believe is self-awareness. "
