Category: Apocalypse

Apocalypse, or lifting of the veil, is always possible. We have a heavy emotional investment in our own beliefs. Apocalypse happens when those beliefs develop cracks and this revelation often never surfaces on a conscious level. What allows renewal, or the rebirth of the phoenix, is the realization that life is death, and when you hold to specific events you lose the opportunity to engage in what is going on behind all of these seemingly real and solid events.

We float in a universe of everythingness. The apple is a donkey, is a shrub, is maggots, is gas floating in the air. This is why things seem to change no matter what we do. It’s necessary. It’s the essence of life.

“It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.” REM

“I sat in the dark and thought: There’s no big apocalypse. Just an endless procession of little ones.” Neil Gaiman, Signal to Noise

    Lifting of the Veil

    Shall we discuss apocalypse? It’s a Greek word the same as the word sin, and just like the word sin it’s typically misunderstood in the English speaking world. It means “lifting of the veil.” It’s a reference to having visions. As we go through our daily lives we tend to get caught up in the…

    Life is Death

    There is an interesting variant model of the observer effect. It’s called the quantum zeno effect. The quantum zeno effect runs along the lines of “an observed particle never decays.” Which, if taken back to today’s subject of apocalypse, means that we often don’t experience renewal because we continue to intend the existence of the…

    Ultimate Apocalypse

    Are you familiar with the Marquis Desade? On the surface, his philosophical insights were valid were they not? He basically believed that you didn’t see someone’s true character until you witnessed them in hardship or suffering. The reason being that unless they were put under this stress, they would instead bury themselves in any of…

    Tapestry of Causes

    Perhaps it’s time I got to my point. I will use the apocalypse of Biblical antiquity as a metaphor, the great flood. We are immersed in a flowing reality. We are not adrift. Our spirits are in their very nature able to move with this reality. In fact, they embody it. It is their very…

    Intention Is Always There

    Does the world look like we intended it to? Perhaps describing my own apocalypse… Seen from a strictly autobiographical view, my life has not really ever gone as I intended it to. I have had one failure after another, and my list of substantial accomplishments is from my point of view non-existent. The more I…

  • Be There from Here

    Be There from Here

    Anyone like the group Blues Traveler? I will twist their lyrics a bit, but it might help this idea come a bit more clear. Intention sits behind the world like a nervous magician waiting in the wings of a bad play. Where the heroes right, and no one thinks or expects too much, and Hollywood’s…

    Be It Now

    If you want to achieve anything great, stop asking permission. If you want to achieve something great, be something great. Be it now, because every intention around you is formed in the same context as is yours. You are riding a wave of intentions that culminated from a million drops of rain and converged into a…

    Achieve You

    The apocalypse is now. All events have ended now. All stories have ended now, and everything begins now. This is once upon a time. All creation is going on right now. All events you will know in your life have happened right now. This is why your life can seem so predictable, because you believe…
