Live to see more than is seen

Here's a thought.

We live based on what we believe. For many of us, our beliefs are based on what we can see, hear, feel, touch and taste (our physical senses).

But what if we also believe that there is something much greater than what we can sense? In this case, our beliefs will be based on our 'sixth sense'.

When we believe something, we see it.

The first case is based on beliefs that are formed primarily from sensing the apparent 'external' world.

The second case is based on beliefs that are formed primarily from sensing the apparent 'internal' world.

Can you see that the world is round and not apparently flat?
Can you hear the dog whistle in the apparent silence?
Can you feel global oneness in apparent separation?

What are you? Are your beliefs predominantly from an internal or external
sensing?

The Superconsciousness

In all my contemplations and meditations, over the years,
I keep coming back to the Superconsciousness.

I like the notion of the Conscious part of us having an objective
focus on the external finite physical world that is partially
perceived, as best it can, by the senses of seeing, hearing, smelling,
touching, tasting etc.Yet recognizing its inability to
comprehend all of reality. i.e it sees a flat world when we
know it is round.

I like the notion of the Subconscious part of us having a
subjective focus on the internal infinite non-physical world within.
I like the idea that it is connected to the infinite universal mind.

I still see the Superconscious part of us that has a perfect ideal,
a perfect seed, that is there for us to better access and bring
in to manifestation in both our subconscious mind first, and then
into our conscious mind, and eventually in manifestation physically.

I guess I seee it as the perfect DNA that all life refers to, to
help us evolve towards perfection.

The Primary Cause is Loving Wisdom

Take anything in life. Take anything that has been,
is now, and will be.

If you examine the primary cause you will discover
that, ultimately, it leads to unconditional love and
wisdom, as its root.

Think about anything. Contemplate the immediate cause
that led to the effect, then the cause that led to the
immediate cause etc. Keep going back until there is
nowhere else to go, because, you will have arrived at
Love and Wisdom, or Creative Intelligence if you prefer.

So, if you wish to create anything. Start with unconditional
love, be of maximum service, give. Your certain knowledge
and total faith will unfold the wisdom.

I feel like the captain of an airliner

During Mindfulness of Breathing this morning I contemplated the body,
the feelings, the mind, and the Dhamma.

I suddenly felt that my body was like the body of an Airbus
A380 aircraft. It contained all the sophisticated wiring, as
its nervous system. It contained all the systems and processes
for seating,eating,toilets,entertainment etc, as the organs
of the body. It contained all the communication and navigation
systems, like the eyes and ears and voice. It contained large
engines under the wings, like our lungs and muscles. It contained
wings as arms and undercarriage as legs, to transport me.

It contained lots of people watching movies, eating,drinking,
talking, walking and sleeping, as the heart of the system, and
it contained the cockpit, with sophisticated computers and
controls, and a flight team, and me.

I felt that the real I, the self, was a tiny part at the
top of the head, that had the power and duty to direct and
control this vast complex and extraordinary body, as best
I could.

The body complete, like the airliner, or spaceship, or any complex
machine, uses resources from nature and, after a while,
it will deteriorate and eventually die and return to the
earth to be recycled and to be reused in the future.

The I within, doesn't seem like an I at all, but it is as
if it's a droplet of the total ocean temporarily experiencing
the grandness of it all, and developing itself?
