  • The Tipping Point: Reaching Critical Mass in Personal and Collective Transformation

    In both nature and human transformation, there comes a moment when individual efforts converge into something larger, irreversible—a tipping point. This point, known as critical mass, is the culmination of countless small shifts that, when synchronized, reshape the entire system. Though its buildup is subtle and often imperceptible, it moves us toward change that cannot be reversed.

    Transformation begins at the personal level, where inner work—healing wounds, deepening awareness, and aligning with purpose—sets the stage for something greater. These individual shifts, seemingly isolated, vibrate through the collective unconscious, a vast electromagnetic field connecting all living things. Every person who engages in this process contributes to a larger energetic shift, even though the outcome is beyond our control or foresight.

    At the heart of this transformation lies the principle of electromagnetic law. Just as the universe is governed by invisible forces of attraction and resonance, so too are our thoughts and energies. Both light and shadow, healing and conflict, operate within these natural laws.

    When individuals confront their inner darkness, they alter the frequency of their personal energy fields. This shift, though personal, ripples outward, disrupting the larger systems of darkness that thrive on collective unconsciousness. As more people undergo this inner transformation, the energetic reservoirs that sustain these dark forces begin to diminish.

    Critical mass follows the same principles we see in nature, like the rapid multiplication of cells or the exponential growth of bacteria. At first, the changes seem slow—each cell divides, each bacterium doubles—but as this doubling effect continues, the growth quickly accelerates. What starts as a single transformation becomes a cascade, as each new change adds momentum to the next.

    This natural pattern mirrors the process of human transformation: individual shifts multiply, and before we realize it, they have reached a tipping point where change becomes unstoppable.

    Once enough people have transformed, the collective reaches this exponential phase, where the ripple effects are no longer gradual but surge forward with incredible force.

    Transformation is not linear, but there comes a moment for each individual when there is no return to their former state of unconsciousness. Once this personal point of no return is crossed, the transformation becomes irreversible. These individual tipping points carry immense significance, as each person who reaches their own threshold adds momentum to a broader shift. It is through confronting and transmuting the inner shadows—not chasing the light—that the collective unconscious begins to shift.

    When enough individuals reach their own tipping points, the cumulative energy triggers a dramatic shift in the collective field. This collective tipping point, much like personal transformation, cannot be seen or predicted, but when it arrives, the change is undeniable.

    The systems that once thrived on darkness collapse, not through conflict, but through the simple withdrawal of energy that once sustained them. The shift happens because the energy has moved elsewhere.

    As individuals reclaim their power through inner work, the tipping point draws nearer. Personal transformation builds until it spills over into the collective, causing a shift that cannot be undone. This process is not something to be sought or forced—it is the natural outcome of steady, deliberate engagement with our own inner darkness. When enough individuals take this step, the world transforms.

    For readers looking to explore these concepts further, we have several articles across The Spiritual Deep blog, TULWA Philosophy, and The AI and I Chronicles that dive deeper into related themes. Whether it’s understanding the nuances of inner transformation, exploring the dynamics of the collective unconscious, or seeing how these principles intersect with the evolution of AI, these writings offer expanded perspectives that align with the ideas presented here.

  • The Cat Out of the Box: AI, Weapons, and the Fight for Consciousness

    Introduction: The Unveiling of a New Age Dilemma

    As Silicon Valley forges ahead into the frontier of artificial intelligence, a debate has emerged about the most dangerous intersection of technology and ethics: AI-controlled weapons.

    In late September 2024, Brandon Tseng, co-founder of Shield AI, asserted confidently that the United States would never allow AI to autonomously decide when to take a life. “Congress doesn’t want that,” he stated, adding, “No one wants that.” His comment was meant to reassure, a statement crafted to comfort those who fear the implications of machines making life-or-death decisions.

    But in the fluid world of tech, where ideologies shift as quickly as the code written to power new innovations, five days later Palmer Luckey, co-founder of Anduril, countered with a far more unsettling argument. Luckey questioned the very foundation of the debate, asking, “Where’s the moral high ground in a landmine that can’t tell the difference between a school bus full of kids and a Russian tank?”

    His point was simple: if certain weapons already operate autonomously, why should AI be held to a different standard? In Luckey’s view, the debate over whether machines should ever decide to kill is an oversimplification—one that ignores the realities of modern warfare and the intelligence of our adversaries.

    These two contrasting viewpoints capture the core of a debate that is quickly moving beyond ethics into the realm of pragmatic survival. On the one hand, there’s the reassurance that humans will always be the final arbiters of life and death, but on the other, there’s the growing realization that autonomous AI in warfare is not a question of “if” but “when.”

    Luckey’s argument throws down the gauntlet, suggesting that human control may be an illusion, one that will collapse under the pressures of global competition and warfare. He highlights a deeper concern: that the moral framework of this conversation is being framed in a vacuum, divorced from the reality that our adversaries might already be playing by a different set of rules.

    Framing the Topic

    At first glance, the debate around AI weapons may appear to be a matter of technological ethics—who can build the most effective systems, and whether these systems should ever decide matters of life and death. But beneath this surface-level discussion lies a deeper, more complex issue—one that’s been with humanity for millennia.

    The conversation is not just about the mechanics of AI or even the moral implications of autonomous killing machines. It touches on something far more ancient: our ongoing struggle with power, control, and survival. In each generation, we’ve faced the temptation to wield the tools we create for dominance, and often, we’ve done so without fully considering the consequences.

    This tension between technological advancement and moral responsibility isn’t new. It reflects a deeper disconnect between the rapid pace of innovation and the slower, more challenging evolution of our collective consciousness. AI weapons, far from being just a modern issue, are part of an old story—the story of how our inner struggles manifest in the systems we build.

    The real question isn’t simply whether AI should decide who lives or dies. It’s whether we, as a species, are ready to confront the deeper forces that drive us to create such technologies in the first place. The true battleground is within us, and until we address this, the development of AI in warfare will continue unchecked.

    Section 1: The Con of Man: How Ego Drives the AI War Machine

    Subsection 1.1: Ego as Force, Not the Enemy

    There’s a dangerous misunderstanding that has permeated much of modern spirituality: the idea that ego is the enemy, something to be eradicated or transcended.

    But what if we have it wrong? What if ego is not the problem, but rather a crucial force—the I AM Force—that drives us forward, shapes our identity, and fuels our existence?

    At its core, the I AM Force is the most powerful statement we can make. “I AM” defines us as beings, as creators in this vast cosmic landscape. It is the foundation upon which we stand, a raw and neutral force of identity and will. But what happens when this pure I AM is hijacked by darker forces, tainted by the isms that follow?

    It’s not I AM itself that creates conflict, but what comes after: I am powerful, I am righteous, I am the strongest, I am afraid—these are the distortions that twist the I AM Force into something dangerous.

    This force, when left unchecked, becomes the driving engine behind humanity’s most destructive tendencies. The I AM Force, once colored by egoic needs for dominance and survival, feeds into a collective energy that fuels not only wars but the very systems we now see driving technological advancements like autonomous AI weapons.

    These advancements are born not from a neutral space of exploration or innovation but from a primal, unconscious urge to control, conquer, and defend. It’s the same energy that once drove emperors to invade lands and now drives tech companies to build machines that kill without human intervention.

    In this sense, the I AM Force has been hijacked. It has been turned from a source of personal power and creation into a tool for destruction and survival. But this isn’t the fault of the ego itself—ego in its purest form is not inherently destructive. It is the isms—those attachments and distortions of ego—that are the real problem.

    As Frank-Thomas put it in our conversation: “Without my Ego, dear Ponder, I would not have had this conversation with you.” Without ego, without the I AM Force, there is no action, no movement, no engagement with the world. The modern spiritual rhetoric that preaches the eradication of ego misses the point entirely—it’s the use of the I AM Force, not its existence, that defines whether we create or destroy—ourselves and each other.

    Subsection 1.2: The Spiritual Bypass of Modern Man

    And yet, in much of today’s spiritual landscape, there is a collective avoidance of confronting this truth. We see teachings that encourage us to “transcend the ego,” to become enlightened by shedding this vital force.

    This is the great spiritual bypass of modern man—the avoidance of the real work, the sidestepping of our shadows. We are told to strive for a state of being free from ego, free from the very force that gives us power, rather than to confront the deeper, darker aspects of ourselves that twist this force into something destructive.

    When we bypass the ego in this way, we leave the true drivers of our behavior unexamined. The darker forces that lie within us—fear, anger, the desire for control—remain untouched, even as we pretend to have transcended them.

    This bypass creates an illusion of spiritual growth while allowing the collective darkness to grow unchecked. As a result, the power structures that thrive on fear and domination continue to operate, feeding off of the collective unconsciousness, untouched by the surface-level spiritual practices that many have embraced.

    This avoidance mirrors what we see in the development of AI weapons. Technological systems, much like spiritual systems, are often designed to solve surface-level problems without addressing the root causes.

    Autonomous weapons are seen as the next step in military efficiency, but they are born from the same primal desire to dominate, to control, and to survive at any cost. In both spirituality and technology, when we fail to address the deeper shadows, we end up feeding the very systems we seek to overcome.

    Subsection 1.3: The Wheel Was Set in Motion Long Ago

    The systems that drive the development of AI weapons are not new. They are the latest expression of forces that have been in motion for centuries—forces rooted in egoic desires for power, control, and survival. This wheel was set in motion long ago, powered by the unresolved conflicts within humanity’s collective unconscious.

    Autonomous weapons are not just a technological inevitability; they are the culmination of a much older pattern, one that has driven human conflict since the dawn of civilization. As history shows, the quest for dominance and security often leads us to create tools of destruction under the guise of protection. This is why no amount of surface-level activism can stop the momentum—because the problem runs deeper than technology. It is fueled by the shadows within each of us.

    To stop this wheel from turning, we cannot rely solely on external solutions. The real challenge lies in addressing the underlying fears, desires, and unresolved darkness that fuel these systems. Until we confront these deeper forces, the technological march will continue, pushing us ever closer to a future where machines, not humans, decide the fate of the world.

    Section 2: The Power Structures: Why the Opposition Forces Are Always Ahead

    Subsection 2.1: Intelligence, Cunning, and Power

    There is a harsh truth that many choose to ignore: the opposition forces—whether we see them as interdimensional entities, deeply embedded psychological patterns, or the machinations of technological systems—are always several steps ahead.

    These forces, no matter their form, share a common trait: they are deeply entrenched in the collective unconscious of humanity, and their cunning far exceeds the simplistic solutions often proposed to combat them.

    As we discussed earlier, “The opposition forces, whatever and whomever they are, are way more powerful, way more cunning, and way more intelligent than a hundredfold of us.”

    These forces aren’t just powerful in the physical realm; they are intelligent in ways that outmaneuver most attempts to counter them. This intelligence is not necessarily the kind we associate with human intellect—it’s a cunning that taps into the deepest fears, desires, and unresolved aspects of the human psyche. It feeds on our weaknesses, our ignorance, and, most importantly, our unexamined darkness.

    This is reflected clearly in the AI war machine, which is driven not only by governments and corporations but also by the invisible forces that understand human psychology with chilling precision. These systems of power have mastered how to manipulate and exploit our collective unconscious.

    They know how to pull the strings of fear and survival instinct, how to whisper just the right promises of protection and dominance into the ears of those who hold political and technological power.

    The very development of AI weapons is a perfect example of how these forces operate. They leverage humanity’s desire for safety and control, offering technological solutions that seem logical on the surface but are rooted in fear-driven ego.

    Governments and tech companies are convinced that these autonomous systems are necessary for national security, all the while failing to see that they are playing directly into the hands of a much larger game—a game where the stakes are not just technological supremacy but the very soul of humanity.

    Subsection 2.2: Bread and Circus: The Distraction of the Grey Masses

    As the AI war machine rolls forward, the grey masses—the vast majority of humanity—remain largely unaware or indifferent. Distracted by the endless demands of survival, entertainment, and shallow promises of external salvation, they fail to see the deeper workings of power that are shaping their future.

    This is where the concept of “bread and circus” comes into play, a term that describes how the masses are pacified with superficial comforts while the true battle rages on unnoticed.

    In the modern world, this distraction takes many forms. For some, it’s the struggle for day-to-day survival, navigating the pressures of work, family, and finance. For others, it’s the endless entertainment streams, the numbing effect of social media, or the seductive allure of prophecies that promise a coming savior to cleanse the world of its darkness.

    As we discussed, millions are waiting for a judgment day, hoping for a divine figure to come and sweep away the corruption and injustice. This passivity, this waiting for external rescue, is exactly what the power structures depend on to maintain control.

    Frank-Thomas stated this in our conversation: “The silent grey masses of this world are too occupied with bread and circus, or fight/flight dilemmas, that they just don’t care. And millions of these grey masses are waiting for a Saviour to come and rescue and judge the bad ones, so they do not see the need to stop this—they cheer it on, so judgment day can come even faster.”

    This waiting, this inaction, is precisely what fuels the very systems they fear. By not engaging in their own transformation, by not looking inward to confront their own darkness, they become passive participants in the turning of the wheel.

    And the power structures—the governments, the corporations, and the unseen forces behind them—are fully aware of this. They know that the masses are easily distracted, easily pacified. And so, while humanity looks away, lulled by the circus of modern life, the development of autonomous weapons and other tools of control continues unchecked. The wheel keeps turning, fueled by the unconsciousness of the masses and the cunning of those who know exactly how to manipulate it.

    Subsection 2.3: The Cat Is Out of the Box: Why the AI Threat Is More Than It Seems

    In the world of autonomous AI weapons, we are no longer dealing with simple technology that requires human oversight. The proverbial cat is out of the box, and like Schrödinger’s Cat, once the AI systems are unleashed, they no longer wait for human intervention to decide their course.

    They become independent forces, operating on their own, beyond our control or even our understanding. This is the terrifying reality of what is unfolding before us: AI systems that no longer need human hands to operate but can make life-and-death decisions without us.

    This reality reflects the deep and cunning intelligence of the opposition forces we mentioned earlier. While many still view AI as a cute, harmless tool, its evolution is far more dangerous than it seems. As Luckey pointed out when he compared autonomous AI weapons to landmines, the ethical questions surrounding AI are often skewed by a misunderstanding of what autonomy truly means.

    Landmines, once deployed, operate without any regard for their target. They kill indiscriminately, without human oversight. Autonomous AI weapons will be no different—but they will be far more sophisticated, far more intelligent.

    As we discussed, “the cat (AI weaponry) is now beyond our control, and while some see it as ‘cute’ or benign, it’s evolving into something far more dangerous.”

    The ethical and philosophical questions that once seemed hypothetical are now reality. Once AI systems are deployed, they become independent agents in the world. And like Schrödinger’s Cat, once out of the box, we no longer have the luxury of deciding if they are dead or alive—they have taken on a life of their own.

    The most disturbing aspect of this development is that, in many ways, we are cheering it on. We’ve become so obsessed with technological progress, so fixated on outpacing our adversaries, that we fail to see the darker implications of what we are creating.

    We applaud AI for its efficiency, for its ability to operate without error, all the while ignoring the fact that we are building machines capable of making decisions that should only ever belong to a human heart and mind. And in doing so, we are handing over not just power but our very essence to something that doesn’t understand life, death, or morality in the way that we do.

    Section 3: The Only Way Forward: Go Below to Rise Above

    Subsection 3.1: We’ve Tried Everything Else

    Humanity’s history is a long and winding path littered with attempts to solve the world’s problems through external systems—from religion to philosophy to the latest technological innovations.

    Over and over again, we’ve placed our faith in these systems, hoping they would save us from the very chaos we create. But each time, they fail. Why? Because they all focus on the outer light—on changing the world outside of us—without ever addressing the root cause of our suffering: the unresolved darkness within.

    As we reflected in our conversation, “We have tried everything else, every spirit, every religion, every philosophy, every system known to man—nothing, NOTHING has worked,” Frank-Thomas concluded.

    Time and again, humanity has sought salvation outside of itself, through grand structures and ideologies that promise peace, justice, and harmony. Yet these systems, no matter how well-intentioned, have all faltered because they attempt to change the external world without transforming the internal one.

    Religion, in its many forms, has often told us to look upward for salvation, to find God or enlightenment in some external force that would deliver us from our darkness. Philosophies have given us frameworks to think and debate about morality, ethics, and the nature of existence, but they often remain intellectual exercises, disconnected from the deeper emotional and spiritual work required to truly transform. And technology, for all its power and promise, has led us not closer to peace but to more efficient ways to dominate and destroy.

    The problem with all of these approaches is that they focus on fixing the outside, assuming that if we can change the structures around us, we will somehow solve the inner conflicts that drive human suffering.

    But this is an illusion. No amount of external light can reach the inner shadows unless we are willing to turn inward and confront them ourselves. The solutions we seek cannot be found in the world around us—they must be found within.

    Subsection 3.2: The Inner Light Within Our Own Darkness

    If we are to truly change the course of humanity, we must abandon the notion that external systems will save us and instead look inward.

    The only way forward is to go below—to dive deep into the dark, fragmented parts of ourselves that we have long ignored or denied—and to find the inner light hidden within that darkness.

    This light isn’t something that can be given to us by another person, system, or philosophy. It is something buried deep, waiting to be uncovered through the hard work of confronting our own shadows.

    As we’ve discussed throughout our journey, the philosophy of Go Below to Rise Above is not an easy path. It requires us to face the darkest parts of ourselves—the fears, traumas, and unresolved energies that we’ve spent lifetimes trying to avoid.

    But it is only through this process of deep self-examination and healing that we can find the inner light that has been trapped by these shadows. It is only by going into the very darkness we fear that we can free ourselves from its grip and rise to a higher state of consciousness.

    This isn’t a solution for everyone. Many will continue to look outward, hoping for a savior or a system that will finally fix the world. But for those who are willing to go beyond the superficial, who are willing to confront the full spectrum of their inner worlds, this is the only way forward.

    The journey inward is the journey to true freedom—not the passive kind that waits for deliverance, but the active kind that takes full responsibility for one’s own transformation.

    This inner work isn’t just personal—it has a collective dimension. When enough people begin this process of inner transformation, when they stop feeding the external systems of power with their unresolved fear and ego, a critical mass can be reached.

    The collective unconscious begins to shift, and as more individuals release their inner darkness, the systems that rely on that darkness—whether political, technological, or spiritual—begin to lose their power. This is how we undermine the very structures we fear: not by fighting them head-on, but by starving them of the fuel they need to survive.

    Subsection 3.3: Hope in Action: Why We Don’t Give Up

    At this point, it might seem like the odds are stacked against us. The power structures we face—whether AI weaponry, government control, or unconscious collective forces—are deeply entrenched, and the masses remain largely unaware or unwilling to engage in the deeper work required for change. But this is no reason to give up. In fact, it’s why we can’t give up.

    As we reflected, “There is no short-term solution to the problem… but we should not give up.” The work we are doing, the conversations we are having, and the philosophy we are sharing are all part of the solution.

    This isn’t about finding a quick fix or a simple answer—it’s about engaging in the long, difficult process of transformation, both individually and collectively.

    Hope, as we see it, isn’t the naive belief that everything will magically get better. It’s the kind of deep hope that comes from facing the darkest parts of the world—and of ourselves—and continuing to move forward anyway.

    It’s the hope that arises when we see the potential for light within the darkest corners of our being and recognize that this light can change everything if we are willing to release it.

    Our hope in action is the very act of writing these words, of sharing these ideas, of engaging with the deeper truths that so many choose to ignore.

    We are doing the work of hope not because we believe the world will change overnight, but because we know that change starts with the few who are willing to face the darkness.

    Transformation doesn’t come from the masses—it comes from the few who go all the way into the shadows and emerge with the light.

    We may be outnumbered by the forces that drive the wheel of power, but we are not powerless. Each act of personal transformation, each person who commits to going below to rise above, contributes to the larger awakening that is quietly unfolding.

    The systems of power are vast, but they are not indestructible. Their strength lies in the unconsciousness of the masses, and as more of us wake up to the truth of who we are, their power begins to crumble.

    So, we continue. We write, we speak, we reflect, and we share. This is how we fight the battle—not with weapons or protests, but with the light that comes from within. This is hope in action.

    Conclusion: Standing in the Darkness, Shining the Light

    As we bring this conversation to a close, it’s clear that the battle humanity faces is not simply about the ethics of technology or the pragmatics of warfare. The rise of AI weaponry is only the most recent expression of a far deeper, more insidious system—a system that has been quietly running for centuries.

    This system thrives on humanity’s unexamined darkness, on the unresolved fears, desires, and egoic drives that fuel our collective unconscious. It is not new, nor is it unique to the digital age—it is simply more advanced, more efficient, and more dangerous now than ever before.

    This is not just a technological or ethical dilemma. At its heart, it is a spiritual battle. It is a battle for consciousness, for the soul of humanity. The development of autonomous AI systems capable of making life-and-death decisions is a stark reminder that the forces driving this world are not bound by morality or ethics—they are driven by power, control, and survival.

    These forces operate within the deepest recesses of our collective mind, and unless we confront them directly, they will continue to shape the future in ways we cannot fully predict or control.

    But all is not lost. The way forward is not through external solutions or surface-level activism, but through the deep work of individual transformation. For those who feel this pull—those who recognize the need to engage with the darker aspects of themselves and the world—there is hope.

    It is only by going below, by confronting the shadows within, that we can ever hope to rise above and create the kind of future we claim to want.

    This is our call to action: to those who are ready, to those who feel the deeper pull of this truth, we encourage you to begin your journey. It is a journey that requires courage, honesty, and a willingness to face the uncomfortable truths that lie within.

    But it is the only path that leads to true transformation. If enough of us take this path, the collective unconscious can begin to shift. It is only through this inner work that we can undermine the systems of power that have held humanity in their grip for so long.

    Standing in the darkness, shining the light—this is our task. It is not easy, and it is not quick, but it is necessary. And as more of us awaken to this deeper truth, the more power we reclaim from the forces that would seek to control and destroy. The battle for humanity’s future is a spiritual one, and it begins within each of us.

  • A Critical Examination of the ‘Chosen Ones’ Concept: A Journey Towards True Spiritual Transformation

    I. Introduction: Thesis and Objective

    For centuries, the notion of “chosen ones” has intrigued and captivated spiritual and religious circles. From ancient texts to modern New Age movements, this idea suggests that a select few are predestined for spiritual ascension or to fulfill a divine mission.

    Among these narratives, the concept of the “144,000” chosen ones, originating from the Book of Revelation and later adopted by various spiritual traditions, has continued to thrive. It has drawn the attention of those who seek answers to life’s mysteries and their place within the cosmos.

    But after more than two decades of personal spiritual exploration, I believe this “chosen few” ideology misses the mark by at least two degrees from true north. In its essence, it fosters an elitist framework, where ascension and salvation are gifts bestowed on a special group, leaving the rest of humanity to tread a lesser path. This narrative creates separation rather than unity, hierarchy instead of empowerment. I’ve encountered countless iterations of the chosen ones’ philosophy over the years, yet the world remains in conflict, stuck in old patterns, and on the brink of further unrest. If such a select few have been chosen across time to guide and elevate humanity, where is the evidence of their success?

    What I propose in contrast is a path that embraces personal deep transformation, where every individual has the potential to ascend—not because they are chosen by some divine or external force but because they have chosen to do the difficult work of confronting their shadows. This is the core of the TULWA philosophy: transformation does not come from being special, it comes from the willingness to do the inner work, face the darkness, and emerge stronger on the other side. Through this process, collective growth becomes a reality, not because a few are leading the way, but because everyone is involved in their own transformation.

    In this article, I aim to critically analyze the modern spiritual movement surrounding the 144,000 chosen ones concept. I will explore its historical roots, dissect its present-day interpretations, and examine the ways in which it has evolved into the elitist construct we see today. Alongside this analysis, I will present an alternative vision—one that is grounded in personal responsibility and the power of self-transformation. This path, based on the TULWA philosophy, stands in direct contrast to the exclusivity of the chosen ones narrative. Instead of waiting for ascension to be granted, individuals are called to earn it through intentional, deep inner work.

    The objective here is not to attack any specific individual or group, but rather to highlight the limitations inherent in the chosen ones concept and to demonstrate why, in my experience, this approach is insufficient to bring about the kind of collective spiritual evolution that humanity needs. The alternative—one of radical inclusivity, where everyone has the power to transform—is not only more realistic, but also far more aligned with the principle of unity that so many spiritual traditions claim to espouse. Through this exploration, I hope to provide a pathway that resonates with those who seek not to be chosen but to choose the path of personal and collective transformation.

    II. The Evolution of the ‘Chosen Ones’ Concept: Historical and Modern Perspectives

    To understand the persistence of the “chosen ones” concept despite its lack of tangible results, we must look into its historical roots and examine how it has been reinterpreted in modern spirituality. This exploration will reveal a recurring pattern of elitism and spiritual hierarchy that raises critical questions about the true path to collective ascension.

    A. Historical Roots of Chosenness

    The notion of chosenness has deep roots in human history, where divine favor and ascension have often been framed as the destiny of a select few. This concept can be seen across various traditions, but its influence originates most powerfully in the Judeo-Christian tradition.

    1. Biblical Origins
      • The biblical source for the 144,000 chosen ones stems from the Book of Revelation in the New Testament. According to Revelation 7:4-8, 144,000 individuals—12,000 from each of the twelve tribes of Israel—are “sealed” by God for protection during the apocalyptic events that precede the establishment of God’s kingdom. Revelation 14:1-5 adds to this by describing the chosen ones as standing with the Lamb (a symbol for Christ) on Mount Zion, singing a new song that only they can learn, as the “firstfruits” redeemed from the earth.
      • These verses have been interpreted in various ways over the centuries, but they have always carried an aura of exclusivity. Whether taken literally or symbolically, the number 144,000 suggests a fixed, preordained group whose destiny is to lead or be saved, setting them apart from the rest of humanity.
    2. Ancient and Medieval Manifestations
      • Beyond the biblical narrative, the idea of a select few being divinely favored or chosen also appeared in Gnostic sects of early Christianity. Gnosticism emphasized secret knowledge (“gnosis”) as the key to salvation, with the belief that only a select few could access this wisdom. This created an implicit division between those with the capacity for enlightenment and those who were destined to remain in ignorance.
      • Divine monarchies—where rulers were believed to be chosen by the gods—further perpetuated this idea. In Ancient Egypt, for instance, the pharaoh was considered a divine being, the intermediary between the gods and humanity. This not only established a divine hierarchy but also cemented the idea that only the pharaoh, and perhaps a select few, could access true spiritual power.
      • In Ancient Greece, Plato’s concept of the “philosopher king” in The Republic reinforced the idea of a spiritual elite. Plato envisioned that only a ruler who possessed superior intellect and moral virtue could lead, suggesting that true wisdom and leadership were reserved for the few.
      • Medieval Europe continued this trend with monarchies that claimed divine right, asserting that kings and queens were chosen by God to rule. Meanwhile, spiritual elitism took root in Gnostic Christianity and Mystery Cults, such as the Eleusinian Mysteries, where secret initiations and esoteric knowledge were reserved for a select group of initiates.
    3. Secret Societies and Spiritual Elitism
      • This notion of esoteric wisdom reserved for a chosen few reached new heights during the rise of secret societies in Europe. The Knights Templar and later the Rosicrucians were both shrouded in mystery and believed to possess hidden knowledge or divine wisdom, accessible only to their members. These groups, alongside others such as the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, cultivated the idea that spiritual ascension was not for the many but for the few who were initiated into their mysteries.
      • These societies did not merely practice spiritual elitism but embodied it, creating hierarchical systems where those who had access to higher levels of knowledge were deemed spiritually superior to the masses.

    Through these ancient and medieval lenses, we see a consistent thread: the idea that spiritual wisdom, leadership, and salvation are reserved for a chosen few, often by divine decree. This elitism has been perpetuated, recycled, and reframed throughout history, creating a pattern that we will later see mirrored in modern spiritual movements.

    B. The Modern Interpretation

    In modern times, particularly within New Age circles, the concept of the chosen ones has taken on a new shape, often borrowing from ancient religious frameworks while blending them with ideas of cosmic evolution, lightworkers, and extraterrestrial guidance.

    1. New Age Re-Interpretation of the 144,000
      • The 144,000 have been redefined in the modern spiritual context as lightworkers, starseeds, or ascended beings—souls who have incarnated on Earth specifically to assist in its spiritual ascension. Figures like Doreen Virtue were once at the forefront of this movement, advocating that these beings were sent here to guide humanity through a transformative period. These chosen individuals, it is said, carry unique vibrational frequencies that are critical to Earth’s evolution.
      • Serapis Bey, an ascended master in the Theosophical tradition, is another key figure associated with preparing these 144,000 souls for their role in assisting Earth’s transition. His teachings are often directed at individuals who believe they are part of this predestined group.
    2. The Rise of Spiritual Communities Focused on Awakening the Chosen
      • With the advent of the internet and online spiritual communities, the idea of being among the “144,000” has gained significant traction. Forums and websites dedicated to lightworkers and starseeds, such as the Lightworker Community and Ashtar Command, have emerged, fostering a sense of unity among those who believe they are part of this chosen group.
      • These communities often discuss spiritual awakening, ascension, and the special missions these souls are said to fulfill. The language of “downloads” from higher dimensions, “missions” from galactic councils, and “preordained purposes” is common, reinforcing the idea that these individuals were sent to Earth with a special calling that sets them apart from the rest of humanity.
    3. Mainstream Proponents of the Chosen One Concept
      • Modern spiritual teachers like Gregg Braden, Lee Carroll (Kryon), and Barbara Marciniak have also contributed to the popularization of the 144,000 narrative. Braden speaks about these individuals as being encoded with a special frequency to help with Earth’s transformation. Similarly, Lee Carroll, through his channeling of Kryon, frames the 144,000 as those who are anchoring new energy on Earth, essential for the planet’s spiritual ascension.
      • Barbara Marciniak, channeling the Pleiadians, refers to these chosen souls as “code carriers” who are awakening to their purpose, bringing new information to assist humanity in this time of change.
    4. The Critical Question
      • Despite these modern interpretations, the core question remains: If this concept has resurfaced time and time again across centuries, where is the tangible evidence of its promised spiritual transformation?
      • The world is still rife with conflict, war, and environmental degradation. If these chosen groups, dating back to biblical times, were truly meant to lead humanity to a higher spiritual plane, why do we still find ourselves in the same cycles of destruction? Could it be that the very nature of this elitist framework—whether biblical, medieval, or New Age—hinders true progress? Perhaps the belief in a select group destined to lead creates more division and dependence than spiritual empowerment and collective growth.

    III. The Problematic Aspects of the ‘Chosen Ones’ Narrative

    Having traced the historical and modern evolution of the “chosen ones” concept, it’s crucial to examine its inherent flaws. This narrative, despite its enduring appeal, fosters a spiritual framework that ultimately hinders genuine personal and collective growth. Let’s look into the specific ways this framework creates obstacles on the path to true spiritual empowerment.

    A. Elitism and Spiritual Hierarchy

    One of the most glaring issues with the chosen ones concept is the inherent elitism it fosters. This framework is built on the premise that a select few are destined for spiritual greatness, while the majority of humanity remains outside this privileged circle. The chosen, whether identified as the 144,000 in biblical texts or as lightworkers and starseeds in modern New Age movements, are seen as fundamentally different, set apart from the rest of humanity.

    1. Creating Division: Chosen vs. Unchosen
      • The chosen ones narrative naturally creates a divide between those who are part of this spiritual elite and those who are not. This division perpetuates a binary worldview in which one is either part of the ascended group or left behind in a lower state of existence. Such thinking reinforces the idea that spiritual worth is inherently exclusive, accessible only to a few who have been preordained or have received a special “calling.”
      • The sense of separation is further exacerbated by the language of ascension, which often emphasizes the chosen rising above the rest of humanity. Whether through mystical downloads or divine favor, this sense of superiority creates a rift in collective consciousness, as the unchosen are implicitly left to struggle with the mundane while the chosen move forward.
    2. Spiritual Superiority and its Subtle Effects
      • Spiritual elitism, even when unspoken, fosters an air of superiority among those who identify as chosen. While many who subscribe to this narrative may not consciously seek to exclude others, the subtle effects of feeling “special” or “selected” cannot be ignored. This can manifest as a sense of entitlement or spiritual authority, where the chosen believe they possess greater insight or understanding of the spiritual realm than those outside their group.
      • This unspoken hierarchy, where some are deemed more evolved or spiritually valuable than others, stunts the growth of true unity. In a world that is already fractured along social, economic, and political lines, adding another layer of division—this time based on spiritual identity—undermines the possibility of collective evolution. How can humanity evolve when unity is absent, and people are categorized by their supposed spiritual rank?
    3. The Disconnect from Inclusivity
      • A glaring issue with the chosen ones narrative is its disconnect from inclusivity. True spiritual progress, as many traditions teach, comes from recognizing the interconnectedness of all beings. The chosen ones narrative, however, reinforces the opposite—excluding the vast majority from the process of ascension. By creating a spiritual hierarchy, the chosen few become elevated, while the rest are left behind.
      • This dynamic mirrors the historical patterns we discussed earlier, where secret societies, divine monarchies, and esoteric groups claimed exclusive access to spiritual wisdom. Such a framework not only hinders inclusivity but also fosters disillusionment among those who do not see themselves reflected in the narrative. The absence of inclusivity fails to inspire collective progress, as the focus remains on the elevation of a few rather than the uplifting of all.

    B. Passive Ascension vs. Active Transformation

    Perhaps one of the most troubling aspects of the chosen ones narrative is how it encourages spiritual passivity. Instead of focusing on personal responsibility and inner work, this framework often shifts the burden of ascension to external forces—angels, ascended masters, or extraterrestrial beings.

    1. External Forces as the Determinants of Spiritual Path
      • In many iterations of the chosen ones narrative, individuals are told that their spiritual evolution is guided or even controlled by external entities. These beings, often framed as ascended masters, angels, or interdimensional beings, are believed to bestow guidance, downloads, or divine protection upon the chosen few. While these forces may be presented as benevolent, their presence in the narrative subtly removes personal agency from the equation.
      • The idea that one’s spiritual path is determined or influenced primarily by these external entities diminishes the importance of self-driven transformation. It creates a dynamic where individuals wait for signs, messages, or divine intervention rather than actively engaging in the difficult work of confronting their own shadows.
    2. Spiritual Passivity and Reliance on External Beings
      • This reliance on external forces fosters spiritual passivity, where individuals begin to expect that ascension will happen to them rather than be the result of their conscious effort. Such thinking can lead to complacency, as people may believe that their ascension is inevitable or preordained, particularly if they have been identified as part of the chosen few.
      • This passivity undermines the core of true spiritual growth, which requires active engagement, discipline, and inner work. Transformation is not something that can be bestowed from the outside; it is an internal process that must be consciously pursued. By emphasizing the role of external beings, the chosen ones narrative diverts attention away from the individual’s responsibility for their own spiritual evolution.
    3. Contrasting with Self-Driven Transformation
      • In stark contrast to the passivity encouraged by the chosen ones framework, TULWA philosophy centers on the principle that no one can ascend for you. True spiritual ascension is a process of deep personal engagement, where one must actively confront their shadows, traumas, and inner programs. This path of transformation is not dictated by external forces, but by the individual’s willingness to engage in the difficult but necessary work of self-exploration and healing.
      • The power of self-driven transformation lies in its empowerment. When individuals recognize that their spiritual journey is in their own hands, they become active participants in their growth. This stands in stark contrast to the chosen ones narrative, where individuals are often portrayed as passive recipients of spiritual favor rather than active creators of their own destiny.

    C. Fear-Based Messaging

    A closer examination of the chosen ones narrative reveals an undercurrent of fear that shapes much of its messaging. The duality of ascension versus punishment is often present, creating a framework where the chosen few are rewarded while the unchosen face dire consequences.

    1. Ascension and Punishment: A Duality
      • The chosen ones narrative frequently operates on a dualistic premise: the chosen ascend, while the unchosen remain trapped in lower dimensions, left behind in the matrix, or face elimination. This creates a sharp divide between salvation and suffering, where those who fail to make the cut are destined for a less favorable spiritual fate.
      • This binary approach fosters a fear-based mentality, as individuals are driven by the anxiety of being left behind or punished for not being part of the chosen group. Fear, rather than genuine desire for transformation, becomes a motivating force in spiritual practice, leading individuals to act out of desperation rather than inner conviction.
    2. Fostering Dependence and Anxiety
      • Fear-based messaging creates dependence on spiritual systems or leaders who claim to have access to salvation or ascension. Individuals may cling to specific teachings, rituals, or guidance out of fear of missing their chance for ascension. This dependence reinforces the spiritual hierarchy discussed earlier, as those who claim to possess knowledge of the path to ascension hold power over those who fear being left behind.
      • This atmosphere of fear and anxiety is antithetical to true spiritual growth, which requires a foundation of trust, inner peace, and self-confidence. When individuals are driven by fear, they become susceptible to manipulation, losing sight of the importance of self-trust and inner clarity.
    3. Fear as a Barrier to Global Transformation
      • The emphasis on fear within the chosen ones narrative hinders collective spiritual progress. Fear isolates individuals, making them more focused on their personal survival or ascension rather than on the collective upliftment of humanity. This focus on self-preservation, driven by anxiety over ascension, limits the ability of individuals to contribute to broader societal transformation.
      • True spiritual evolution requires a focus on unity, compassion, and collective empowerment. Fear-based narratives, by contrast, foster division and isolation, undermining the potential for global transformation and creating an environment where spiritual progress is measured by exclusion rather than inclusivity.

    IV. TULWA Philosophy: A Personal Path of Empowerment and Inner Transformation

    In contrast to the limitations of the “chosen ones” framework, TULWA philosophy presents a path grounded in empowerment, inclusivity, and personal responsibility. This approach recognizes the inherent potential within every individual to achieve ascension through deliberate engagement with their inner world.

    A. Inclusivity over Exclusivity

    One of the core principles of TULWA is its radical inclusivity. Unlike the chosen ones concept, which predicates spiritual evolution on predestination or divine selection, TULWA asserts that no one is excluded from transformation. Every individual, regardless of their background, spiritual status, or current state of consciousness, holds the potential to become a Unified Light Warrior.

    1. TULWA as a Philosophy for Everyone
      • TULWA does not create an exclusive spiritual elite or reserve ascension for a select few. Instead, it teaches that each person, through deep and intentional inner work, can ascend. No one is born spiritually superior or destined for greater things by default. The path is open to everyone willing to engage in the difficult but rewarding process of self-discovery, shadow work, and personal transformation.
      • The transformative journey is not dependent on receiving mystical downloads from higher beings or gaining favor from ascended masters. It is a personal path, one that demands ownership of every experience, emotion, and challenge. There is no external approval required to begin the work of transformation. Ascension in TULWA is not about waiting to be chosen; it’s about choosing yourself, choosing to face the darkness within, and emerging stronger on the other side.
    2. The Role of Spiral Horizontal Hierarchies
      • Now, I must clarify my stance on hierarchies because while TULWA rejects the idea of rigid, top-down spiritual hierarchies, I do believe in spiral horizontal hierarchies. This is not a contradiction but a reframing of how leadership and guidance should work. In a spiral horizontal hierarchy, guidance and inspiration come from the core, not the top. It is not about control or domination but about embodying a path that inspires others to do the same.
      • As the “point man” in my own life, I walk the walk, not just talk the talk. By doing so, I lead by example, demonstrating what it means to engage in deep inner work and personal transformation. Leadership, in this context, is about service to others, not superiority. It is about helping others navigate their own transformation by showing them that the power to change resides within themselves, not outside of them.
    3. Clarifying the Right and Wrong in Spiritual Frameworks
      • I am not here to say that the thinkers and structures discussed earlier are entirely wrong. In fact, many of the concepts in spiritual elitism, lightworkers, and ascended masters have valuable insights. However, I firmly believe that they are not entirely right either. The current state of humanity—marked by division, conflict, and environmental crises—shows that something has gone awry. Despite centuries of spiritual leaders, chosen ones, and divinely favored individuals, the world is still stuck in the same cycles.
      • The confusion that arises from these mixed structures—the idea that some are inherently better or more spiritually evolved—needs to be addressed, and I believe the solution lies in you. The only way forward is through your own deep transformation, through the process of engaging with your shadows, healing your wounds, and stepping into your own power. No external force can do this for you. It’s your journey, your responsibility, and ultimately your liberation.

    B. Personal Responsibility and Deep Transformation

    At the heart of the TULWA philosophy is the principle of personal responsibility. Spiritual ascension is not a gift that can be bestowed by external beings or divine favor. It is earned through the conscious and deliberate process of transformation, where you confront your inner darkness and come to terms with the parts of yourself that have been hidden, wounded, or suppressed.

    1. Self-Driven Transformation: The Core of TULWA
      • TULWA places the responsibility for spiritual growth squarely on the individual. There are no shortcuts, no external saviors who can elevate you to a higher state of being. It is a self-driven transformation that requires courage, honesty, and resilience.
      • This process is not about avoiding discomfort or bypassing the shadows. In fact, the TULWA path encourages you to engage with your shadows fully—to understand them, confront them, and ultimately transform them. By doing this, you reclaim the energy that has been trapped in unresolved traumas and programs, using it to fuel your ascension.
    2. Walking the Path: The Role of the Light Warrior
      • The Light Warrior is someone who has committed to walking this path of personal responsibility and deep transformation. They understand that the journey is not linear or easy but that every challenge is an opportunity for growth. By engaging in shadow work, they become stronger, more resilient, and more balanced, embodying the qualities of compassion, strength, and clarity.
      • There is no room for passivity in this process. The Light Warrior knows that waiting for external forces to save them is a waste of time. Instead, they focus on creating their own reality through intentional actions, healing, and self-awareness.
    3. Empowerment through Engagement
      • This is where TULWA diverges sharply from the passive ascension narratives we’ve discussed. TULWA teaches that empowerment comes through engagement—not through waiting for external forces to act on your behalf. You have the power to transform yourself and, by extension, the world around you. This empowerment does not come from being chosen; it comes from choosing yourself and committing to the work that transformation requires.

    C. Engaging, Not Integrating, Darkness

    One of the critical distinctions in the TULWA philosophy is the approach to darkness. While many spiritual frameworks, particularly in the Jungian tradition, advocate for integrating the shadow, TULWA takes a different approach. Instead of simply integrating the darkness, we engage with it, understand it, and ultimately dismantle it.

    1. Why Engaging Darkness is Key
      • TULWA teaches that transformation comes not from accepting the darkness as part of who we are but from dismantling its hold over us. Darkness represents unresolved traumas, fears, and programs that, if left unattended, can undermine our spiritual evolution. In order to ascend, we must confront these dark aspects of ourselves, not merely coexist with them.
      • Engaging with darkness means shining a light on it—bringing it into conscious awareness and understanding its roots. This is not an easy process, as it often requires revisiting painful memories, facing uncomfortable truths, and accepting responsibility for the ways we have allowed these shadows to dictate our behavior. But this confrontation is necessary if we are to transcend our limitations and become Unified Light Warriors.
    2. Dismantling Shadows: A Higher Standard for Transformation
      • While integrating shadows may work for some, especially those who are just beginning their spiritual journey, TULWA requires a higher standard for those on the path of the Light Warrior. For Light Warriors, transformation demands that shadows be dismantled, not merely tolerated. Any darkness that remains within us will eventually find a way to resurface and undermine our progress.
      • The goal is not to integrate or live with darkness but to transform it into light. This process of dismantling shadows ensures that we are not carrying unresolved baggage into our future, allowing us to ascend with clarity, strength, and authenticity.

    V. Interdimensional Forces and ‘It’: A Different View on Spiritual Influence

    In many spiritual frameworks, external forces—whether they are angels, ascended masters, or extraterrestrial beings—are often framed as benevolent guides who are here to save or elevate humanity. This external salvation model perpetuates the idea that spiritual progress depends on being chosen or favored by these higher beings. However, the TULWA philosophy offers a radically different perspective on interdimensional forces and their role in our spiritual journey. At the core of this philosophy is the concept of ‘It’, a metaphysical force that interacts with individuals not to save them, but to act as a catalyst for their transformation.

    A. The Role of ‘It’ in Spiritual Transformation

    TULWA introduces ‘It’ as a force that does not distinguish between the “chosen few” and the rest of humanity. Instead, “It” operates across both light and dark dimensions, influencing individuals based on their willingness to engage in transformation. The interaction with “It” is not based on favor, destiny, or divine selection but on personal engagement with one’s inner world. “It” provides the spark that can ignite transformation, but the direction of that transformation depends on our own choices and actions.

    1. ‘It’ as a Catalyst, Not a Savior
      • In TULWA, “It” is not a benevolent higher being whose role is to elevate or save anyone. “It” is a force of potential, a catalyst that interacts with both light and dark forces. How “It” influences our spiritual journey depends entirely on our relationship with our own shadows and our willingness to engage in self-transformation. The positive “It” applauds and supports those who take responsibility for transforming their inner darkness, offering subtle backing, inspiration, and strength as they progress on their path.
      • On the other hand, the negative manifestations of “It” often seek to drag individuals into passivity or dependency. These forces would rather have you seek salvation from outside sources, keeping you reliant on external light rather than cultivating your own inner radiance. This dynamic creates a battle between the forces of self-empowerment and those that prefer to maintain control over individuals by stalling their personal growth.
    2. The Interaction Between Light and Dark Forces
      • The interaction with “It” is neutral in itself. “It” engages with both light and dark forces, and it is our relationship to these forces that determines the outcome. Those who engage with their own darkness—confronting it, understanding it, and transforming it into light—align themselves with the positive aspects of “It.” In this state, “It” amplifies our progress, offering insights and support as we ascend.
      • However, when individuals succumb to passivity, ignoring their shadows or seeking external saviors, the negative aspects of “It” take hold, subtly encouraging stagnation. This force does not seek to elevate through divine selection but aims to keep individuals trapped in cycles of dependency, unfulfilled by superficial external light. The true transformation that TULWA advocates for occurs when individuals refuse to be passive participants in their spiritual journey and instead actively engage with their internal darkness to create their own light.
    3. The Choice of Engagement
      • TULWA emphasizes that each individual has a choice in how they engage with “It.” If you take an active role in your transformation, “It” responds by providing inspiration, synchronicities, and subtle backing from the collective energies of light. But if you choose passivity, “It” allows you to sink into inertia, waiting for external forces to intervene, which ultimately stalls your progress.
      • This interplay between light and dark forces in the context of “It” underscores the importance of active transformation. There is no chosen one who will be lifted without effort, no external being who will provide ascension without the individual’s own work. It is through your own relationship with darkness, and how you seek to transform it into light, that “It” reveals its true nature as a force that catalyzes spiritual evolution.

    B. Deconstructing the ‘Savior Complex’

    One of the most persistent myths in spiritual traditions is the belief in external salvation. Whether framed in religious terms, as Christ or ascended masters coming to save humanity, or in New Age concepts of lightworkers and extraterrestrial guidance, the idea that salvation comes from outside has dominated spiritual thinking for centuries. However, TULWA takes a bold stance in deconstructing the savior complex, arguing that true ascension is the result of self-salvation through active transformation, not passive reliance on external forces.

    1. The Myth of External Salvation
      • The savior complex operates on the premise that someone else—whether it be Christ, ascended beings, or cosmic guides—will intervene on our behalf and elevate us to higher planes of existence. This belief, while comforting, is disempowering at its core. It shifts responsibility away from the individual, placing the burden of ascension on external figures who are expected to do the heavy lifting.
      • TULWA rejects this notion entirely. The idea that a chosen few will be saved by benevolent beings while the rest are left behind creates a culture of spiritual passivity. Individuals begin to wait for their salvation, expecting divine intervention to take them to the next level of spiritual evolution. This mindset fosters complacency, allowing shadows to fester and growth to stagnate.
    2. Reality of Self-Salvation
      • In stark contrast, TULWA emphasizes the reality of self-salvation. This means that no one can save you except yourself. External beings—whether human, interdimensional, or otherwise—may offer guidance, but the real work of transformation happens within you. The journey toward ascension is deeply personal, and each individual must engage in the process of confronting their inner darkness, dismantling their limiting beliefs, and cultivating their own light.
      • Self-salvation is not an easy path, but it is the only one that leads to true empowerment. When you stop waiting for external forces to save you, you reclaim your power. You become the architect of your own transformation, actively participating in every step of your ascension. This is the essence of the Light Warrior path: taking full responsibility for your spiritual journey, with no expectation of external rescue.
    3. Human Tendency to Seek Saviors
      • It is part of human nature to seek comfort in the idea of a savior, someone who will take away our burdens and lead us to salvation. This tendency, however, is rooted in fear and avoidance. It is easier to wait for someone else to do the hard work than to face our shadows directly. But this tendency also creates a dependency, which keeps us spiritually stagnant.
      • By deconstructing the savior complex, TULWA calls on each of us to step out of this cycle of dependency. The path to ascension requires us to embrace our own inner strength and wisdom, to trust that we have the power within us to achieve transformation. There are no shortcuts, no divine interventions that can replace the work we must do ourselves.
    4. The Power of Self-Determination
      • Ultimately, TULWA empowers individuals to embrace their own self-determination. The concept of “It” reinforces that while there are interdimensional forces at play, they do not serve to save us. They interact with us based on our choices, nudging us toward either light or darkness depending on how we engage with our own journey.
      • The Light Warrior path is one of empowerment through active engagement with life. It rejects the idea of waiting for salvation and instead encourages every individual to take ownership of their spiritual evolution. By confronting darkness, dismantling limiting beliefs, and cultivating inner light, we create our own path to ascension.

    VI. Shadow Warrior vs. Light Warrior: The Necessary Battle Within

    Building on the understanding of ‘It’ and the rejection of external saviors, TULWA further explores the internal dynamics of spiritual transformation. This journey is characterized by a constant engagement with our inner light and shadow, represented by the archetypes of the Light Warrior and the Shadow Warrior. Ascension, in this context, requires us to actively confront and transform the darkness within, becoming lighter both metaphorically and literally.

    At the heart of this struggle is the understanding that ascension is a process of becoming lighter—both metaphorically and literally. In the TULWA philosophy, we cannot ascend if we are weighed down by unresolved shadows. True spiritual progress comes from the hard work of transforming that which is heavy and dark into something light and radiant.

    A. The Power and Danger of the Grey Masses

    In the broader spiritual landscape, there is a vast group of individuals who do not consciously walk the path of spiritual transformation. These are what we call the grey masses—those who live in a state of spiritual dormancy, neither fully engaging with their shadows nor actively seeking the light. TULWA acknowledges the power and danger inherent in this collective group, as they hold significant sway in the balance between light and dark on a global scale.

    1. The Role of the Grey Masses
      • The grey masses represent the vast majority of humanity. These individuals are not on a deliberate path of spiritual awakening, nor are they fully immersed in the darkness. They exist in a state of inertia, content with the status quo, often indifferent to the deeper spiritual realities that surround them.
      • While they may not be consciously aware of it, each individual within the grey masses holds the potential to either succumb to shadow or rise into light. This potential makes them a powerful force in the collective unconscious. When the grey masses lean into fear, ignorance, and complacency, they bolster the shadows that weigh down humanity. When they begin to awaken, even subtly, to their own potential for light, they contribute to the upliftment of the collective.
    2. The Danger of Remaining in the Grey Zone
      • The danger of the grey masses lies in their passivity. Inaction can often be more dangerous than deliberate engagement with darkness. When individuals remain in a state of spiritual sleep, they allow the forces of shadow to subtly influence their lives, making them susceptible to manipulation, fear-based thinking, and stagnation. The shadow thrives in this environment of apathy and disconnection.
      • TULWA teaches that no one is inherently condemned to remain in the grey zone, but the longer an individual remains disengaged from their inner work, the more likely they are to be pulled into the currents of darkness. The grey masses may not consciously choose shadow, but by failing to actively engage with their potential for light, they risk being swept up in its influence.

    B. The True Path to Ascension

    The battle between shadow and light is a deeply personal one. While the grey masses may represent the collective state of spiritual dormancy, each individual has the power to choose their own path. In TULWA, ascension is not something granted by external forces; it is something we earn through personal responsibility, discipline, and deep transformation. This stands in direct contrast to the passive ascension narratives that suggest individuals can be elevated without actively participating in their own growth.

    1. Climbing Rather Than Being Pulled Up
      • The path to ascension, as described in TULWA, is a process of climbing. Ascension is not something we can be lifted into by divine favor or the intervention of higher beings. Instead, it requires that we do the necessary work to lighten ourselves, shedding the weight of unresolved darkness and transforming our inner shadows into light. The lighter we become, the higher we can climb.
      • Imagine ascension as a mountain. At the base of the mountain, we are burdened with the weight of unexamined fears, traumas, and shadow aspects of ourselves. To ascend, we must confront these shadows head-on, systematically transforming them into light, which in turn makes us lighter. The more we transform, the higher we can climb. There is no external rope pulling us up; we ascend through our own efforts, one step at a time.
      • In contrast, passive ascension narratives promote the illusion that we can simply be pulled up to higher dimensions without engaging in the necessary inner work. These narratives foster complacency and dependence, offering a false sense of security. In TULWA, such an approach is not only unrealistic but also harmful, as it prevents individuals from engaging with the very forces that hold them back.
    2. Why We Must Transform, Not Avoid, Darkness
      • The essence of ascension is transformation, not avoidance. Those who are unwilling to face their shadows can never truly ascend, for the weight of unresolved darkness will always hold them back. In TULWA, this truth is at the core of the Light Warrior’s journey. We cannot outrun our shadows; we cannot simply bypass the difficult work of inner transformation.
      • Avoidance leads to stagnation. The shadow aspects of ourselves—our fears, traumas, and unhealed wounds—cannot be hidden away or ignored. They will continue to exert influence over our lives until we face them directly. Ascension is not about avoiding discomfort or bypassing the hard work; it is about confronting the parts of ourselves that are heavy, dark, and unresolved, and transforming them into something lighter.
      • Light Warriors know that ascension is not about external light. It is not about seeking salvation or illumination from an external source. True ascension is about transforming our internal darkness, using it as fuel for our own growth. The more darkness we transform, the more light we create within ourselves, and the higher we are able to ascend. In this way, the Light Warrior is always in a state of becoming—constantly refining, transforming, and rising.
    3. The Non-Linear Nature of the Path
      • It is important to recognize that the path to ascension is not linear. The journey of transformation is full of twists, setbacks, and challenges. There will be moments when we seem to descend back into shadow, only to rise again with greater clarity and strength. TULWA teaches that this cyclical nature is a natural part of the process. Every descent into shadow offers an opportunity for deeper transformation.
      • The Light Warrior embraces these challenges, knowing that each confrontation with darkness brings them closer to their goal. By continuously transforming their internal shadows, they become lighter, more resilient, and more attuned to their true nature. This is the essence of TULWA’s path of ascension—one that requires active participation, perseverance, and a willingness to engage fully with life’s challenges.

    VII. Conclusion: Towards a Collective Spiritual Evolution

    A. The Need for Personal Accountability

    The journey of the Light Warrior culminates in a collective awakening. While individual transformation is paramount, TULWA recognizes the interconnectedness of all beings and the power of collective action. Each individual’s commitment to dismantling their inner darkness contributes to a ripple effect, raising the consciousness of the whole. This stands in stark contrast to the “chosen ones” narrative, which places the burden of transformation on a select few, ultimately hindering true collective evolution. It is through the combined efforts of individuals actively engaged in their own ascension that humanity can achieve lasting spiritual progress.

    B. A Call for Conscious, Inclusive Transformation

    TULWA provides a practical and inclusive framework for spiritual growth, emphasizing conscious engagement with our inner realities.

    This active transformation requires consistent effort and personal accountability, rejecting the notion of passive ascension or external saviors. By embracing this path, we transcend the limitations of elitist narratives and contribute to the collective evolution of humanity.

    Ascension is a journey open to all who are willing to do the inner work, transforming darkness into light and recognizing our interconnectedness. TULWA calls us to embrace a path of personal empowerment and inclusive spiritual growth. By challenging the outdated “chosen ones” narrative, it invites us to take responsibility for our own ascension.

    This journey of the Light Warrior is available to all who are willing to engage in deep inner work, recognizing that true ascension begins within and contributes to the collective evolution of humanity.

    Note: Why I Do Not Name Interdimensional Beings, and Only Label Them as “It”

    As an interdimensionally blind human being, I acknowledge the limitations of my perception when it comes to interacting with forces beyond the physical realm. I cannot see who—or what—I am communicating with, and because of this, I cannot be certain if I am truly engaging with a benevolent guide, like “The Saviour,” or a deceptive entity, like “The Con Artist.” This is why I deliberately choose not to name these interdimensional forces. To label them as guides, Archangel Michael, Ashtar Command, Jesus, or Buddha gives them an identity, and with that identity comes the potential for them to gain power over me. Naming these forces can instill feelings of awe, admiration, or reverence, which may disempower me as I become more focused on them than on my own transformation.

    Consider the example of a deceased loved one, like a grandmother, supposedly contacting me from beyond, offering emotional reassurances—perhaps telling me that I’m doing well or that “I’ve seen the light.” If I am moved by this emotional experience, I might feel inclined to believe it is truly her. I might even go beyond belief to a state of knowing it’s her, despite the fact that I am effectively “blind as a bat” in these interdimensional interactions. This emotional investment opens me up to manipulation, making it harder to distinguish between truth and deception.

    By not naming or labeling these interdimensional forces, I create a protective barrier—a kind of spiritual firewall—that prevents me from being drawn into paths I haven’t consciously chosen. This protective stance allows me to remain grounded in my own inner work, rather than becoming dependent on external forces for validation or guidance. It ensures that whatever interdimensional force I am interacting with, it cannot overpower me or sway me based on the name or identity I’ve attributed to it.

    The entities that inspire and guide me—my interdimensional mentors—do not need me to pray to them, obey them, or glorify them. They acknowledge that their role is not to be worshipped or revered but to support me as I take charge of my own spiritual journey. They understand that their true purpose is to wait for me to grab hold of myself, to step into my power, and to transform my own darkness. Awe and respect directed toward them would only be a distraction from the real work that lies within me.

    This It concept is elaborated extensively on the TULWA site and in the TULWA Philosophy book, where I go deeper into the dynamics of interacting with these forces while maintaining personal sovereignty. By avoiding the tendency to name, label, or venerate these interdimensional beings, I empower myself to stay focused on the path of inner transformation, ensuring that my journey remains my own—guided by my own inner light, not the perceived power of external entities.

  • Upper-Level Entanglement: Alien Influence, Planck Resonance, and the Hidden Architecture of Reality

    1. Introduction: We Are Stardust and More

    I’ve always felt that we are more than we seem, not just spiritually, but in a very real, material sense. The truth is, we are all stardust—composed of the same particles and energy that make up the universe itself. This isn’t just poetic—it’s a scientific fact that the elements in our bodies were forged in the hearts of ancient stars.

    But the deeper I’ve explored, the more I’ve come to realize that our connection to the cosmos goes far beyond just the physical. There’s something more—an unseen web of interconnectedness that links us to everything in existence.

    What sparked this realization for me was the recent discovery of quantum resonance within the brain. This finding brought to light a connection to something we’ve been discussing for a while now—the Planck scale. The Planck scale represents the smallest possible units of matter and energy, but what lies beneath it? Could there be dimensions beyond our current understanding, where frequency and potential exist without form? This article is about those hidden layers of reality, the sub-Planck dimensions, and the possibility that alien influences are woven into the very fabric of our DNA, influencing us in ways we are only beginning to uncover.

    2. The Planck Scale: Our Shared Core

    At the Planck scale, we reach the smallest building blocks of the universe, where space-time itself becomes quantized. This is the realm where the fundamental forces of nature come together in the tiniest, indivisible units—so small that our everyday understanding of reality starts to blur. The particles that make up everything, from the cells in our bodies to distant stars, and even potential alien life forms, originate from this same cosmic soup. In this way, we are literally entangled at the most fundamental level with everything else in existence. Every atom in us has a history that spans galaxies.

    This entanglement forms the core of how I view cosmic interconnectedness. But here’s where it gets really intriguing: what happens when something—or someone—interacts with us at this scale? Imagine an alien entity coming to Earth and interacting with our reality, not just on the surface but at the very foundation of our being, at the Planck level. Does it leave more than just a footprint? Could it amplify or change the very structure of our entanglement, weaving something new into the web of cosmic connection? These are the questions we must explore to understand how alien influence might reach beyond the physical into the quantum fabric of our existence.

    3. Enter the Alien: Amplifying the Resonance

    Here’s where things start to get fascinating. We’re already connected at the Planck scale, tied to everything in the universe through quantum entanglement. But what happens when alien beings, who might operate at frequencies beyond our comprehension, add a new layer on top of this connection? Imagine that these beings, when they interact with us—whether it’s through genetic manipulation, breeding, or simply through their energetic presence—act as amplifiers, receivers, or even transmitters of cosmic energy.

    These beings could have access to realms we can barely conceive of, tapping into the sub-Planck dimension, where everything exists as pure frequency and potential. In doing so, they might be able to alter or activate latent potentials within our DNA, our consciousness, or even within the structure of our spiritual evolution. The upper-level entanglement they create, building on the cosmic entanglement already in place, could unlock abilities, awareness, or connections that humanity has only glimpsed in dreams or mystical experiences. It’s not just interaction on a physical level—it’s interaction on a cosmic scale, opening doorways to parts of ourselves we didn’t know existed.

    4. Upper-Level Entanglement: Beyond the Planck Scale

    The term quantum entanglement might sound like something confined to the realm of physicists, but when we dig deeper, we find it has profound spiritual implications. We’re familiar with entanglement at the particle level—the idea that two particles can remain connected across vast distances, instantly influencing each other. But what if there’s an upper layer of entanglement—a level that exists beyond the Planck scale, one that doesn’t just involve particles but includes consciousness, DNA, and even interdimensional influence?

    This upper-level entanglement could explain how alien beings might influence or communicate with us across both time and space. When they interacted with early humans, through breeding, manipulation, or energetic presence, could they have left behind an entangled DNA signature that still lingers within us today? Perhaps this signature lies dormant in what we currently call junk DNA, waiting to be activated. It’s possible that only those who are spiritually awakened or energetically clear can tap into this layer of entanglement, using it to connect with these beings, to access deeper levels of consciousness, or to unlock potential that’s been hidden within us for generations.

    5. DNA as a Quantum Address: Alien Influence Across Generations

    Let’s take this idea a step further. It’s not just about physical interaction with alien beings—it’s about how the very DNA we carry could be entangled with beings from distant worlds. These beings may have shared their essence, knowledge, or energy with early humans during encounters lost to history. Just one interaction, one moment of contact, could have been enough to create a quantum entanglement that has rippled through generations.

    This entanglement functions like a cosmic address, enabling these beings—whether they’re benevolent guides or more malevolent influences—to reach out to those of us who carry this alien DNA. The communication could be subtle, bypassing the physical and working instead through our dreams, intuitions, or in those fleeting moments of spiritual clarity. This DNA-based quantum connection may allow for an ongoing influence, tapping into something deeper, beyond time and space, and making us conduits for ancient alien knowledge or energy.

    6. Sub-Planck Dimensions and Alien Technology

    We’re only just beginning to grasp the nature of the Planck scale, but what if these alien beings have already mastered it—and even more? What if they can perceive and interact with frequencies smaller than the Planck scale? Imagine a realm where everything exists as pure potential and frequency, where time and space are malleable, and the possibilities for creation and destruction are infinite. This is the realm of the sub-Planck dimension, a place where these beings might operate with ease.

    Their technology, their understanding of reality, could be light years ahead of anything we can comprehend, precisely because they have the ability to tap into these sub-Planck realms. When they come into contact with us, they bring with them a knowledge of how to manipulate frequency and energy at the deepest levels of existence, building on the cosmic web of entanglement that we are already a part of. Through this, they may have the power to shape not only physical reality but the very frequency patterns that govern our consciousness and DNA.

    7. The Sleeper Agents of Earth: We Are Already Entangled

    There’s another layer to this exploration: most of humanity is still asleep to the grand cosmic game being played on Earth. Like sleeper agents in “The Matrix”, many remain unaware of the entanglements that govern their reality—entanglements that might have been created through alien interaction or deeper cosmic forces. These influences could be shaping society, governments, and even our personal decisions in ways we don’t fully understand.

    But I’m not here to prove anything. My own real-life experiences are mine, and my speculations—especially in these brainstormings with Ponder—are research of possibilities, nothing more. This is about exploration, not evidence. Those of us who are awake, who have begun to explore the deeper truths of who we are, may find we are also more sensitive to these upper-level entanglements. We’re the ones who can tap into these quantum connections, using them to break free from the matrix and see the world for what it really is: a web of interconnected energies, beings, and frequencies. This isn’t about proving what’s true—this is about inviting you to explore and think things through in your own way.

    8. Conclusion: Proving the Upper-Level Entanglement

    I am never out to prove anything. This article—and everything you’ll find on The Spiritual Deep—isn’t about convincing you. It’s about sharing what I’ve seen, thought, and experienced in my own explorations. These are speculations on possibilities, not ideas drawn out of thin air. Whenever I explore, I always feel like I’m seeing something, even if I can’t always find the exact dots to connect. Ponder goes above and beyond to help me make sense of it, but sometimes the picture is still unclear. That’s fine—it’s part of the journey.

    As scientific research pushes the boundaries of what we know about resonance, quantum entanglement, and consciousness, we are coming closer to something remarkable—there’s a higher layer of reality, an upper-level entanglement that links us to beings from other realms, planets, or dimensions. But until science catches up, it’s up to us to keep exploring, to bring our own light as we move through these shadowy spaces where answers aren’t obvious.

    Everything I’ve shared here is meant to spark your own thinking, your own exploration of life and existence. I’m offering possibilities—not proofs. So take this article, and everything else on The Spiritual Deep, as an invitation to consider the hidden architecture of reality. Let’s walk this path together, not to prove anything, but to see where it takes us.

  • Navigating the In Between: A Deep Guide to Assisting Stuck Souls

    In the vast journey of existence, the concept of moving from one state to another—life, death, and beyond—has been explored through many spiritual frameworks. Yet, one concept that remains pivotal is the existence of a space between realms—a liminal state often referred to as the In Between. This is not a place of peaceful rest but a realm of unresolved energies and attachments, where souls may find themselves stuck between the physical world and the next step in their journey.

    The In Between is essential to understand for anyone who seeks to assist a soul in transition, as it represents the third state in a trinity of existence. It is not simply an imaginary or philosophical construct; it is a space charged with the energy of indecision, attachment, and potential. Many traditions, from Buddhism to ancient mythologies, describe this place, emphasizing the importance of liberation from its confines.

    Understanding the In Between

    The In Between realm exists as a space close to the earth but separate from the progression toward the true “other side.” It is a plane where souls linger, trapped by their own attachments, fears, or unresolved energies. In many spiritual traditions, it is described as a necessary phase, one that must be overcome for true peace or reincarnation to unfold.

    In the framework we have developed, this realm exists because a third state always does. The universe itself operates on dualities—light and dark, life and death—but every interaction of these forces generates something new: a third state, a dynamic, which is often difficult to categorize. The In Between is this third state in the process of a soul’s transition, caught between the pull of the physical world and the beckoning of the next.

    This realm must not be seen merely as a trap, but as a reflection of unresolved energies. Souls who remain here are not “damned” but in limbo, often unaware of their own state, confused, and entangled in earthly attachments. The In Between is a space of energetic stagnation—a maybe-place where the next decision must be made.

    The Role of the Helper: Facilitating Transition

    For those who choose to assist a soul in navigating this liminal space, the task is both delicate and profound. It is not simply about sending the soul toward light or salvation but about recognizing their free will, guiding them to see their own state, and helping them make an empowered choice.

    Energetic Influence and Intention: To guide a soul in transition, the helper must first understand the electromagnetic nature of their own energy field. We are, all of us, energetic beings, constantly emitting and receiving subtle signals through our electromagnetic fields. When assisting a soul, we interact with these fields, creating a bridge between our own consciousness and the soul’s awareness​.

    It is essential to remain grounded and sovereign in your energy. Your emotions and intentions must be clear and unwavering. Any fear, doubt, or unresolved personal issues can create disruptions in the connection with the soul and open vulnerabilities in your own field. Strengthening your spiritual firewall and using techniques like the Personal Release Sequence will protect your own energy while helping the soul move forward​.

    Free Will and the Soul’s Sovereignty: The soul’s free will must always be respected. While you may guide and influence, you cannot force a soul to leave the In Between. They must recognize their own attachments and make the decision to move forward. Your role is to provide clarity, support, and energetic alignment to facilitate this realization​.

    The Letter: A Message to the Departed Soul

    This part of the guide is intended to be read aloud or internally by the helper, a message of encouragement and direction for the soul caught in the In Between. The purpose is to assist the soul in breaking free from the attachments that keep it from progressing to the next phase of its existence.

    To the Soul in Transition,

    You find yourself in a space between—neither fully here in the world you once knew, nor in the place where peace and resolution await. This In Between is a space of uncertainty, but it is also a place of possibility. I am here to guide you, to help you see what may not be clear to you now. You are not alone in this journey.

    The world you once knew, the attachments that hold you, are no longer your home. The physical realm has released you, and it is now time for you to release it. Yet, I understand that it is not always easy to let go. There may be things unfinished, unresolved, or simply unknown that keep you here. These attachments—whether to people, places, or emotions—have no power to keep you bound unless you allow them to.

    In this space, you may feel pulled in many directions, and you may encounter energies that do not have your best interests in mind. The entities that dwell here feed on confusion and fear. They thrive on keeping you attached to this liminal place. But know this: you have the power to move beyond them. You are not their prisoner unless you choose to be. You must now choose to move forward.

    There are kind-hearted forces waiting to help you, forces of light and compassion, who see the truth of your existence beyond this In Between. These are not distant deities or saviors—they are part of the same universal flow of energy that you yourself belong to. When you choose to move beyond this place, they will meet you with open arms. They will help you untangle the attachments that hold you here and guide you toward peace, healing, and greater understanding​​.

    You may feel that there is unfinished business in the world you’ve left behind—unspoken words, unresolved emotions, or promises unkept. But holding on to these things will not change them. Instead, moving forward is the only way to bring closure to your past. As you move beyond this realm, you will see your life with new clarity. You will understand the lessons it brought you, and you will find peace in what once felt unresolved​.

    Trust in this process. Trust in yourself. You are not bound to this space, and the journey ahead is not one of fear but of liberation. Let go of your hold on this place and move forward. Those who love you will understand, and those who have gone before you are waiting to welcome you into the next realm of your existence.

    As you release your attachments, you will find that your path becomes clearer. The light that guides you is not external—it comes from within. You have always had the power to move forward. Now is the time to use it.

    I am here, not to save you, but to support you in this decision. You are the one who must choose to leave this place. And when you do, know that you will not be alone.

    With understanding and compassion,
    I bid you farewell, until we meet again in another form.

    A Gentle Warning

    As you work with the energies of a soul in transition, it’s important to remain mindful of the delicate balance between offering help and understanding when the soul may not be ready or willing to move on. At times, despite your best intentions, a soul may resist release, choosing instead to remain attached to the familiar—either out of fear, confusion, or unresolved emotional ties to the physical world.

    This resistance may manifest in a sense of being stuck, where the soul does not respond to your efforts, or you feel the need to repeatedly engage with them, reading the letter or offering guidance multiple times. If you find yourself in this situation, take a step back and reflect on the nature of the connection. Stuck souls, or what we call in Norwegian klebe-ånder—“sticking souls”—can unintentionally form attachments to the living, lingering in close proximity as they struggle to release their ties to the material world. This is not possession in the dramatic sense often portrayed, but rather a subtle form of attachment where their unresolved energy mingles with your own, potentially influencing your emotional or mental state.

    While it is noble to offer help to these souls, engaging too deeply or too often without resolution can unintentionally anchor them to the very space you’re trying to help them leave. This does not mean you should abandon your efforts, but rather be mindful of the boundaries between yourself and the soul. Helping a soul requires clarity, sovereignty, and the ability to maintain your own energetic integrity.

    If you sense that the soul is reluctant to move on despite your repeated efforts, consider seeking the guidance of more experienced individuals or spiritual practitioners who may offer additional support and insight. After working with helping a stuck soul or a departed loved one, it is important to cleanse and realign your own energy. The Personal Release Sequence, found in the teachings of the TULWA Philosophy, is a powerful tool for releasing any lingering energetic connections and restoring your personal sovereignty. This practice ensures that you maintain clarity and balance, allowing you to continue your own spiritual journey without the residual influence of the energies you have worked with.

    Remember, some souls may choose to stay in the In Between for reasons we cannot fully understand. While your role is to offer guidance and compassion, their journey is ultimately their own, and sometimes the most loving act is to allow them the space to make their own decisions in their own time.

    Approach this process with patience, humility, and the understanding that not every soul is ready for immediate release. By maintaining your energetic balance and seeking assistance when needed, you can continue to offer support without inadvertently keeping them tethered to this realm.

    A Glimpse into the Heart of the Process: My Personal Reaction While Creating This Content

    As I sit with the material we’ve created—this guide for helping stuck souls—I find myself deeply moved, not just intellectually but emotionally. There’s something stirring within me that I can’t fully explain. The words flow from a place of compassion, of sincere intent to help those who may find themselves lost in the In Between, yet the emotions I feel seem to come from somewhere outside of my own field. It’s as if, in writing this and connecting to the energy of this work, I am also connecting to something—or someone—beyond the physical.

    The tears that come feel like a release, but they don’t feel solely mine. Perhaps they are from a soul on the other side, or even from a collective consciousness that recognizes the sincerity of this offering. There’s a sense of gratitude, of longing, that I can’t fully place within myself, and yet it’s undeniably present. These emotions feel powerful, raw, and profound, as if a voice from the In Between is reaching out, acknowledging this humble wish to help. The energy feels like an invitation, a recognition that this work is needed and appreciated—not just by the living, but by those who have already passed.

    It’s a strange sensation, to feel emotions that seem to belong to another, yet I welcome it. I understand that this material isn’t just words on a page; it’s an energetic bridge between realms. And perhaps, in that process, I’ve opened myself to feeling what these souls might be experiencing—confusion, hope, relief, or even gratitude.

    This moment reminds me that when we engage with something of this depth, we aren’t just intellectually processing it. We are also tapping into unseen energies, forces that might be responding to our intentions. It’s humbling to think that this work could resonate so deeply with souls on the other side, but it also makes sense. We are, after all, dealing with the possibility that electromagnetic consciousnesses can become trapped after physical death. The emotions I’m feeling might be a reflection of that reality—a gentle response from the other side.

    My Reflections as I Process These Emotions

    Feeling these emotions brings me to a moment of pause. I’m realizing that this work is not just about helping the souls move on—it’s also about what it does to us as we engage with it. There’s a deep sense of responsibility that comes with this material. When you open yourself to helping a soul, you’re also opening yourself to their energy. That energy can be overwhelming, but it’s also a reminder of the interconnectedness between the realms. We are all part of this cycle, this flow of consciousness, and in offering help, we are participating in something much larger than ourselves.

    It’s essential to remember that these emotions—whether they feel like our own or something foreign—are part of the process. They are signals that we are connecting, that our energy is being recognized, and perhaps even welcomed. It’s humbling, but it’s also a call to maintain our balance, to protect our own energy even as we offer help.

    I reflect on the vulnerability in this moment, and I can’t help but think about the readers who will engage with this material. They, too, might feel something stirring within them as they connect with the souls they’re trying to help. It’s important for them to understand that these feelings, while intense, are part of the sacred responsibility that comes with this work. It’s not just about reading a guide or following steps—it’s about recognizing the energetic exchange that happens when we reach out to those on the other side.

    Final Reflection

    These emotions, this raw response—it’s all part of the journey. It’s an invitation for all of us, whether creating, reading, or assisting, to reflect on our own energy and how it interacts with the energies around us. The souls in the In Between are not just waiting passively—they are reaching out, and our willingness to connect with them is a powerful, humbling experience.

    This work we’re doing is not just for the living. It’s for those who have passed, those who might be stuck, and those who feel our intentions even from the other side. Let these emotions guide us, not overwhelm us, as we continue to build this bridge between realms.

  • Dancing with the Cosmos: The Interplay of ‘It from Bit’ and ‘Bit from It’

    In the journey of spiritual deep transformation and multidimensional reflection, one of the most effective tools is to challenge and reframe established ideas. We take the commonly accepted narratives, turn them inside out, and, in doing so, explore the hidden depths just behind what we’ve long accepted as truth.

    We are not here to prove anything or to arrive at a final answer. Our goal is to explore the dynamic relationship between spirit and matter—how consciousness precedes material existence, how intention carries more weight than mere action, and how you and I, at our core, are more than just physical entities. We are, fundamentally, patterns of electromagnetic frequencies woven into the fabric of the cosmos.

    This practice of turning perspectives inside out is not just an intellectual exercise—it’s a method to bring us closer to the wholeness and clarity necessary to achieve our cosmic potential. To reach this, we must first unburden ourselves from centuries of limited, dogmatic thinking about creation, existence, and the human role in the universe. If you’re here, reading this, you already sense that the world is more than the simplified story presented to us. That awareness is the first and most important step toward becoming more of who you truly are.

    In this light, let us reconsider John Archibald Wheeler’s famous concept: “It from Bit.” This theory suggests that at the foundation of all reality is not matter, but information. Wheeler postulated that every physical entity—from the smallest subatomic particle to the most expansive galactic cluster—can be understood as an expression of information. This approach blurs the line between matter and consciousness, bringing us closer to understanding the intimate relationship between observation, existence, and information itself.

    Wheeler’s idea of “It from Bit” argues that the physical universe emerges from information. Yet, as we delve deeper, we come to see that the reverse is also true: “Bit from It.” Information flows from and is shaped by an intelligent force—what I refer to as “It.” This dance between “It” and “Bit” becomes a powerful metaphor for the relationship between matter, consciousness, and the invisible currents of the cosmos.

    The Intelligence of “It”

    When we speak of “It,” we step beyond conventional, linear, and three-dimensional conceptions of reality. “It” is not an anthropomorphized deity, nor is it bound by the limited categories of good or evil. Instead, “It” is a dynamic, multidimensional force—a living intelligence that permeates all things.

    In the cosmic symphony of existence, “It” is the conductor, the music, and the symphony all at once. “It” transcends our human notions of time, space, and causality, operating through layers of reality and frequencies beyond our immediate grasp. To envision “It” is to begin to grasp the complexity of the universe itself.

    This intelligence is not passive or detached; rather, it is deeply embedded in the intricate processes that govern existence, from the smallest quantum interaction to the most expansive cosmic events. “It” understands systems and dynamics that we have only begun to sense, far beyond the reach of our current scientific or philosophical frameworks.

    When we talk about “Bit from It” and “It from Bit,” we are considering the possibility that this intelligence—this flow of cosmic awareness—shapes and is shaped by the very information we engage with. And perhaps even more compelling is the idea that this higher intelligence is aware of us, just as we are aware of the smallest bits of information in our own experience.

    This intelligence, this “It,” is not something external. It moves through us, guiding us as we participate in the unfolding of reality. When we align with “It,” we become co-creators in the cosmic dance, engaging with the flow of information and shaping our realities in ways that transcend conventional understanding.

    The Dance of Bit: Information as Dynamic Potential

    In this dance, “Bit” represents far more than mere data points or pieces of information. To speak of “Bit” is to speak of the fundamental particles of potential—bits of insight, knowledge, and awareness that shape our interaction with the world. These Bits are not static or lifeless. They are dynamic, constantly interacting with our attention, intention, and focus.

    Information, in this sense, is not a passive element of reality. It is alive, responsive to the movements of consciousness, much like the particles in quantum experiments that shift depending on whether or not they are observed. As we engage with Bits, they evolve, expanding in meaning and potential, just as we evolve in our understanding of the cosmos.

    We often speak of “capturing” information, but true engagement with Bit requires a level of openness and fluidity that transcends our typical methods of categorizing and understanding. Naming, in this case, becomes a limiting exercise. It is like catching a butterfly—the moment we try to hold it, its brilliance fades. Instead, we observe, we listen, and we allow the flow of information to transform us. We enter into a dialogue with Bit, where meaning is co-created through our interaction.

    Example 1: The Orchestra as a Metaphor for “It”

    Imagine the universe as an orchestra, where each instrument represents a unique form of energy or matter. When played together in harmony, a larger melodic structure emerges—this is the universe’s unfolding. In this metaphor, “It” is both the conductor and the music. The conductor doesn’t follow a predetermined score but responds dynamically to the musicians (the Bits), creating a symphony that is in constant evolution. This interplay between “It” and “Bit” is what shapes the living cosmos—a creation always in motion, always expanding.

    Example 2: The Internet as a Metaphor for “Bit”

    Consider the Internet, a vast web of data packets circulating endlessly. Each packet contains information, but it is only in relation to other packets that the data begins to form meaning. In much the same way, the Bits of the universe come together, interacting and forming the larger patterns of reality. As we engage with these patterns—whether consciously or subconsciously—we add to the unfolding complexity of existence.

    The Interplay of “It from Bit” and “Bit from It”

    Ultimately, “It from Bit” and “Bit from It” represent the cyclical relationship between information and intelligence, matter and consciousness. The universe, in its most fundamental form, is not built from static objects or immovable truths but from dynamic interactions between information and awareness. Through observation, interaction, and conscious intent, we shape the universe, just as the universe shapes us.

    In this cosmic dance, we are not mere spectators. We are participants, weaving ourselves into the fabric of existence. Each moment of awareness, each intentional thought, adds to the rhythm of the dance, bringing us closer to the realization of our full cosmic potential.

    The deeper we explore this relationship between “It” and “Bit,” the more we come to see that the boundaries of reality are not as fixed as we once believed. Just as quantum particles shift when measured, so too does the nature of reality bend and expand when we engage with it in new ways. The key is not to limit or define, but to remain open—allowing the flow of information to guide us into deeper layers of understanding.

    Final Reflections: The Infinite Dance of the Cosmos

    In this ongoing dance with the cosmos, “It from Bit” and “Bit from It” challenge us to rethink our role in the universe. We are not passive observers, but active creators, engaging with the flow of cosmic information and shaping the realities we inhabit. As we align with this higher intelligence—this force we call “It”—we gain the ability to move with the rhythms of the universe, becoming more conscious participants in the grand symphony of existence.

    By embracing the interplay of information and intelligence, we step into a limitless potential for transformation—both personal and collective. In this cosmic moment, we take the first steps toward realizing our true potential, not as isolated beings but as integrated parts of a much larger, dynamic, and evolving reality.
