Ghosting the Soul: The Virtuality of Life

March 17, 2023 / Iam Saums / 2 Comments

“Everything we experience in social reality is a simulation.”

Heredity of Maturity

All of us are afflicted with the social psychosis of adulthood. When we were younger, we observed our elder relatives as the standard of maturity. Many of us followed a similar path they did with a plethora of indoctrination, institutionalization and programming. We assumed the role of a qualified, respectable and responsible member of society. All the while, our soul, intuition and heart were dissected, oppressed and abandoned, sacrificed for namesake, status and wealth. Yet, it did not pan out in a way that empowered, evolved and fulfilled us. We simply conditioned ourselves to become a variation of our parents.

A Bitter Pill

When we acquiesce to the currents of social reality, we emulate ourselves as projections of personality. Oftentimes, when someone presents alternative topics, cognitive dissonance rises in all whom have logged a lifetime of social programming. When we encounter diverse viewpoints, we are conditioned to resist releasing old ideologies for a transcendent vision. Universality, to our fixed, linear perception, causes a personal paradox, crashing our regimen of knowledge, history and relativity. Our arrogance and ignorance defensively flex in a feigned attempt to appease our pursuits for an artificial sense of security.

Believe It or Not

With all of social reality’s narratives, manipulation, prejudice, propaganda and rhetoric, it is nearly impossible to distinguish one’s unique, personal truth from society’s chaotic symphony of lunacy. Eventually, we accept and apply biased, social deceptions to our behavior, ideology, intelligence and lifestyle. When we are confronted by the diversity of another’s experience, our defense mechanism is to debate, discredit, demean, ridicule and ostracize them with our unbridled fear and ignorance. We enable our self-righteousness at the cost of genuine belonging, expression and understanding. Our distrust of others is simply illustrative of our disbelief in ourselves.

Matrix of Enslavement

For a decade, I have been writing about the intricacies of how we are enslaved by social reality. Whether or not we choose to observe that entities, governments and organizations impose a virtual matrix to enslave humanity is irrelevant. If we do not see it now, then we simply are not paying attention. We are too preoccupied with its triviality. Our fear denies and devalues our soul, diminishing and destroying our personal power. As unbearable as it may seem to be with and accept alternative perceptions, our greatest quality is to embrace diversity. Our universal purpose is consciousness, creativity, evolution, freedom and transformation.

“Many of us know how we exist, few of us understand who we are.”

Human Aquarium

Social reality to us is like water to the fish. Because we are assimilated, we fail to see how detrimental it is to our experience. We do not sense it; therefore, we fall prey to its influence. We interpret it as “reality,” then move on to its next simulation of social bliss. Our sporadic attention spans enslave us into the vicious cycle of momentary gratification, governed by our desires, obligations, routines and reveries. The exploitation of amusement, education, media, politics and religion corners us into delusion, diversion, indifference and uncertainty, as we spiral out of consciousness into the vortex of existence. Social reality is the artificial boundary of the human aquarium.

Immaterial Purpose

Our greatest epidemic is our monetary dependency. Social programming desensitizes us to the influence and impacts of our oblivious proliferation of greed. Fiscal endeavors can be perceived and achieved in many ways, yet none supersedes the egocentricity of earning more at the cost of others. The dynamics of business have become an acceptable, common standard for competition and conquest. The ultra-wealthy’s gluttonous addictions and psychoses perpetually push the boundaries of global economic collapse. The rest of us enable our enslavement with our participation in their engineered marketplace.

Ghosting the Soul

We are phantoms of our universality. During our social indoctrination, we willingly sever our connection with our soul, intuition and heart for conformity. Beyond the fullest extent of our apathy, cognitive dissonance, cynicism, denial, intelligence, mystification and victimization, we are the shadow of our soul. Our fear manipulates us to “ghost” ourselves. We hide behind the defenses of our personalities, emulating the worst of humanity and acquiescing the best. We are an idiom of reactivity, yielding our power to everyone and everything, beneath the veiled, social threat of being held accountable, authentic and benevolent.

Silent Partners

There are millions of dedicated, altruistic people, both on and beyond the world, who send energy, healing and prayers to all. It does not matter how educated we are, our ideology, politics, religion or status. We can always receive the universal energy of being, healing and love. How we choose to accept and apply it to our life is entirely up to us. Maybe we believe we do not need another’s help. Maybe we believe it is an expression of weakness, trusting others for guidance, support and relativity. The eternal question I would ask, “how is that working?” In an egocentric, social reality, we know it may. When empowered by our universality, we understand it does not.

The Power of Choice

We make millions of decisions in our lifetime, yet these are distinct from choices. Surviving is a daily, instinctual decision we all make. Thriving is a conscious choice only a few fulfill. Will we continue to settle for the insanity of doing things over and over again with a same result? Will we break this vicious cycle and choose to transcend the enslavement of social reality? Will we embrace and express the multidimensional energy of our universality? Every moment is an opportunity to transform our being. Choosing to shift our experience is the key to our freedom. All it requires of us is to align and relate with our soul.

The Virtuality of Life

Everything we experience in social reality is an illusion. This is not to say nothing is true. It simply does not exist within the virtuality of “life.” No matter how excruciating it is to accept this truth, we cannot transcend our enslavement without being free from the simulation. Being, consciousness, creativity, empowerment, evolution, understanding and transformation do not survive in social reality. They thrive in the synergy between the universe and our soul, when our mind and body resonate with the energetic frequencies of our intuition and heart. This equilibrium is essential in becoming an expression of universality. It is our soul destiny.

“Virtuality is how we exist. Universality is who we are.”

A History of Mystery Continued….

February 23, 2023 / Iam Saums / 4 Comments

“When we release the illusion of reality, we experience the truth of being.”

Four years ago, I published an article, “A History of Mystery.” I recommend reading this first.

A History of Mystery

Originally published on July 12th, 2019

Rude Awakening

In this piece, I shared a few of my personal experiences shifting into and exploring diverse dimensions. One I am most present to in this moment happened twenty-five years ago. Right after falling asleep, I found myself in a vast domain, standing before a massive wall of energy resembling the illumination and movement of fire. Everything else around me was white space. All I recall was stepping into this energy and shifting into the beyond. Mere moments passed before I returned to my body, awakened by my girlfriend.

The Boundary of Being

Since this experience, I observe this energetic barrier to be a boundary. In my understanding, when we cross this threshold, everything we encounter of this world remains in a vortex of what we perceive as “reality.” All we experience beyond this boundary is the energy of the universe, and its synergy with our soul. When we return to sensory awareness, we are unable to recall our transitory, universal experiences. Our body and mind are incapable of comprehending multidimensionality. Terrestrial existence is primarily instinctual and intellectual, with periodic emotions and rare epiphanies of intuition.

In the Darkness of Oblivion

27 years ago, I was in a musical group and living the party life. One Summer afternoon, I was taking a nap, prior to a performance that evening. After falling asleep, I found myself in a domain of utter darkness. I was in a deep pit, and I sensed the disturbing presence of entities all around me. As they drew closer to me, I was immobilized by negative energy. In sheer horror, I found a focus of will power to break the vicious cycle and escape the ominous doom seeping into my soul. Eventually, I pulled myself out of this wicked realm, gasping with terror, as the residual dark energy surged through my body.

Duppy Conqueror

For over half of my life, I have encountered these entities more times than I would choose to recall, in many diverse dimensions, environments and incarnations. Each time, they became craftier at entrapping me. A year ago, I had what I believed to be my final experience with them:

I found myself in the backyard of my childhood home, playing with neighborhood friends. I suddenly shifted to the family room of the same house and heard thunderous footfalls approaching down the hallway toward me. A dark spirit, unlike any I had confronted, held me down on the ground and proceeded to lash me with its fists. Three entities circled me (the same ones from the pit), crawling like legless slugs. I found my will power, and for the first time, released a powerful, vocal roar, stunning the entities into fear and annihilating them for good. The dark spirit vanished, and I awoke empowered with the sense the entities had been defeated.

“The darkness empowers our light.”

The Shadow of Empowerment

What I experience is frightening to my core. It disrupts my equilibrium, intensifies my emotions, scatters my thoughts, frays my instincts and occasionally leaves me physically wounded. Yet, in all my experiences, my awareness, confidence, courage, energy, insight, prayer, strength and understanding has expanded beyond my imagination. In reflection, I realize the experiences inspire a unique, personal empowerment. Howsoever my instincts, thoughts or emotions interpret them, they are all universal. The duality of social reality programs us to believe in the black and white of dark and light. Yet, there is so much more…

Revenge of the Duppy

A few months after my experience in my childhood home, I drifted off one night and instantly shifted into another dimension of my bedroom. I looked up to see the dark spirit that had been attacking me in my previous encounter, standing over my bed with a wicked grin of malicious intent. Its eyes were blazing with a fiery glee. It had a silver, white aura, and a black form like the vacuum of a starless sky. I rose to face it, (which was the first time I recall moving in another dimension.) As I stood, it thrust its hand into my chest. I could feel its darkness pulsing through my being, viciously and violently seizing my energy. My focused will power severed the dark tether and I returned to my body, gasping for life with every breath.

The Cost of Consciousness

Many may believe consciousness is an illuminating experience of empowerment, enlightenment and ecstasy, an adventure of discovery, exploration and fulfillment. In some ways it can be, yet in most ways it is not. My personal experiences with consciousness have been extraordinary, insightful and powerful, as well as arduous, horrific and perilous. Beyond the energy, focus, intention, balance and expression it requires to establish and sustain awareness, there is a darkness we all must face, our own. This is the most terrifying experience we will ever encounter. It is the cost of our consciousness.

A Solar Return

24 years ago, I met a healer who practiced an East Indian ceremonial tradition. She performed an ancient healing ritual on me, and I instantly shifted consciousness:

I was walking down an octangular, glass corridor surrounded by brilliant light and flaring fire. When I focused my vision, I realized I was on the Sun. I came to a door at the center of a solar flare and crossed its threshold into a large octagonal room. The only illumination were fire embers moving through the grains of its wood-paneled walls. In the center was a massive, uprooted tree, stripped of its bark, with its gleaming roots sprawling throughout the space. There was an altar at its heart, and I was drawn to lie down upon it. I shifted again and returned to my body on the healer’s table. Later, I discovered this was my soul’s ritual of being born.

Our Common Experience

I feel to the roots of my soul we all have these experiences, uniquely sourced by our resonance with the universe. Our only distinction: some of us recall them, while others are unable, or unwilling. Our engagement in social reality inhibits our natural ability to intend and fulfill their eventuality. Personal consciousness creates and empowers our experience. We all have a soul existing omnidimensionally in the universe, which empowers our potential to explore beyond the boundaries of our being. Our absolute question remains: Are we willing to release the illusion of our persona to embrace the truth of our soul?

“Conscious experience synergizes our soul with the universe.”

The Experiential Awareness of Being

February 10, 2023 / Iam Saums / 1 Comment

“We are as conscious as we are present.”

Soul Sacrifice

We are born into physical reality with the feelings, thoughts and behaviors of our ancestors. Existence in social reality is inhibited by the programming of our education, engagement, heredity, intelligence and religion. We instinctually and intellectually adopt and enact perceptual filters to insulate our solitary lifestyles. Our desire to be right supersedes our need to express our truth. We are defensive when we encounter anything distinct from our individual and socially adopted narratives. We sacrifice our personal power, becoming victims of addiction, exploitation, fear, influence and insecurity. We eagerly chase peer affirmation for a superficial existence.

The Vortex of Our Oblivion

We settle for a life of anonymity, as it seems the easier way. Yet, surrendering our personal power to entities and organizations, reliant upon our acquiescence for the imposition of their control, is the cause of society’s current conundrum. We are born an eternal being into a physical form. Yet, we are afraid to acknowledge, become and express our unique soul. Through our exposure and interaction with social reality, we eventually devolve into a vortex of egotism. All who succumb to the selfishness of their desire are the vacuum of a black hole. All who choose to express from their soul are an emanation of the universe.

Against All Odds

We are conditioned to preoccupy our lives with trivial amusements, obligations, pastimes and pursuits. Social reality constantly distorts our focus of awareness from establishing an equilibrium between our instincts, thoughts and feelings. This essential balance brings us into alignment with our intuition, soul and the universe. Our apathy, fear, insecurity, institutionalization, perceptual filters and self-righteousness prevent us from experiencing and becoming the fulfilled expression of our being. Our bodies and minds are cluttered with artificial sensation and thought, enslaving us with virtual reactivity to social reality’s engineered exploitation.

An Act of Will

At any moment, we can shift our experience. The contemporary standard of living is to be born, deceived, enslaved, manipulated, programmed and inevitably die. No matter how we may elect to perceive these human conditions, they are the result of the social reality we cling to for credence, meaning, reference and relevance. Awareness of these probable outcomes are opportunities to break the antiquated patterns of our instincts, thoughts, feelings and behaviors, to align with our heart center, intuition and soul. Conscious experience is an expression of our focused will. A spark that lights the fire we kindle with our vision and intention.

“It is our birthright to create and empower our awareness.”

Self-Awareness

Experiencing relativity in our environment and society begins with understanding ourselves. Not the function, history or knowledge of what we do, yet who we are being. We are all victims of collapsing and compounding our profession with our identity. How we sustain ourselves financially is not an expression of being. Making this vital distinction frees us from becoming prisoners of our programming. We cannot be self-aware until we are related with the universe. Self-awareness is transcending our environment, transforming our relations and empowering our being with our intuition and soul.

Social Consciousness

Once we establish and sustain our awareness of self, we can apply and express consciousness in our social engagement. Our soul, intuition and heart center empower us to be as present as possible in our relativity with society. The most important practice in all our relations is to listen. When we provide an authentic environment of listening, we are expressing our being. The greatest gift we can give to another is the experience of being heard; appreciated, recognized and validated. We inspire personal power with our listening and acceptance of who they are, beyond their expression, emotion and intelligence.

Existential Understanding

Everything exists in some way. Yet, it is not how we exist; it is who we are being. Shifting our paradigm of perception from surviving to thriving may be the best way to embody existentialism. Our institutionalization conditions us to endure the positive, negative and neutral elements of our experience. When we are motivated to simply live through our challenges, we are not really living, we are evading. We misinterpret these powerful opportunities as problems. When we are empowered to consciously progress through these experiences, we are evolving. Our understanding of existence expands, inspiring us to become solutions.

Experiential Awareness

We are multidimensional beings with the potentiality to have omnidimensional experiences. This is our universality, sourced by our soul’s synchronicity with the universe. Our intuition conveys our soul’s empowerment through our heart center, into our mind, body and environment. It is our personal destiny to become aligned, balanced and empowered with our unique experiential equilibrium. Our omnidimensionality creates, expresses and manifests our fulfilled experience. Living life in the simulation of social reality may seem like a gratifying encounter for some. Experiencing being in the eternity of universality creates awareness for all.

“Being present in the present is experiential awareness.”

Source and the Mediacracy

December 2, 2022 / Iam Saums / Leave a comment

“Mainstream media is a crime against humanity.”

Broadcast Controversy

Six corporations control the global mainstream media. The editorialization of information has proliferated dogma, propaganda and rhetoric, driven by our selective inclinations. The news is not a broadcast of factual data to maintain our relativity with the pulse of current events. It is opinion, propagated by commercial agendas to deceive, distort and manipulate perception. Ratings, clicks, comments, likes and shares determine the information we receive. Advertising and entertainment are methods of conditioning, utilized to delude, distract and pacify the masses. Yet, we eagerly assemble around our devices to feign social intelligence.

Mainlining Mediacracy

Cell phones, computers, tablets and television screens are the modern projectors of artificiality, receiving and transmitting toxic electromagnetic energy to the user and their environment. Our fascination with their functionality has distorted our perception, causing an excess of social psychoses. It is an epidemic of oblivion, inhibiting our way of being, consciousness, destiny, evolution and universality. We are biological and psychological software programs, coded to accept the laws of reality as the rule of life. When this is challenged, we defend and enable its existence with our social programming.

Media Matrix

Our frequency of interaction with the media matrix is the degree of our programming. We are conditioned into a simulated lifestyle, congruent with our self-exposure to social medium. All things begin with energy. The energetic signature of the mainstream media is artificial, intense and negative, inciting and spreading fear. Our instincts become prone to anxiety with the virtual threat of a pending doom. We are inundated with intellectual information, coding our neural pathways into vicious cycles of arrogance, entitlement and egocentricity. Our emotional awareness is distorted and diminished, separating us from our intuition, soul and the universe.

Soul Sacrifice

Our coding is wired with the fear of losing what little control, possession, status, security and vanity we believe we have. Yet, we willingly surrender our personal power at every opportunity. We endure reality instead of empower experience, collecting whatever fleeting memory we can capture. We wager our authenticity, enlightenment and fulfillment for social superficiality. All the while convincing ourselves intelligence, knowledge, productivity, reputation and wealth are the standards of happiness. Meanwhile, our body and mind deteriorate with the absence of our heart, intuition and soul.

“The mainstream media imposes awareness; the universe empowers consciousness.”

Enabling Enslavement

All forms of media desensitize us to the horrors of human existence. Whether it is war, genocide, environmental annihilation, inequality and injustice, class, cultural or racial superiority, our exposure is excessively toxic. We are socially assimilated into competition, debate and division, where we invest our focus and energy into a surplus of social terrors, enabling their realities. These atrocities persist due to our obsessive tendencies for egocentricity. When we become disinterested, distracted or indifferent, we simply scroll or swipe our screen for a more desireable flavor of artificiality.

Totalitarian Programming

Our social programming is so gradual, we are unable and/or unwilling to trace its momentum. It is even more challenging to discover and observe its course. We acquiesce our personal power with our engagement in the paradigm of the mediacracy. If our enslavement was accelerated, many of us would notice and cause an uprising. This is the primary purpose why its progression is at a snail’s pace, to control our personal perception and prevent our freedom. We simply fail to acknowledge its influence and impact. We are preoccupied by an elaborate system of desire, delusion, diversion and exploitation. Therefore, we are oblivious to the atrocities we enable with our participation.

The Means Justify the End

The design of our enslavement is evident. Harness our attention with engineered information. Destroy our personal power within the environmental vortex of society. Provoke and maintain our fear, herding us into authoritarian dependence. Condition us to police each other under the threat of social punishment and ridicule. Program our obedience with mere survival to satiate our angst. Keep us distracted and preoccupied with a steady stream of amusement, debate, pre-planned global events and societal shifts, all while abolishing our basic freedoms and rights. We are indoctrinated to invest in social reality more than ourselves.

Choose Your Illusion

Where we aim our attention is where we express our energy. It defines our experience. We are conditioned to engage in the vacuum of disempowering realities, imposed upon us by authoritarian entities and organizations, existing as banks, corporations, education and religious institutions, governments and political parties. They diminish our personal intention and power by transmuting the energy we invest with our participation into sustaining our individual enslavement. The payoff we receive is our anger, apathy, indifference, naïveté and self-righteousness. Mainstream media feeds our insatiable appetites with content customized for our oblivious consumption.

The Currency of Reality

Since we are in the simulation of social reality, we are blind to the profundity of its exploitation, influence, impact and programming. Furthermore, we choose to refute its existence, believing our willful denial will somehow prevent its inevitability. Where we focus our attention is not just where our energy is expressed, it is also where we acquiesce our personal power. What is our greatest inconvenient truth? We alone cause and enable our enslavement. Knowing, let alone understanding, we are the cause of our social oppression is the vital epiphany empowering our freedom.

Transcendental Shift

We are given infinite opportunities to sever our tether with the mediacracy and social reality. Every day we have the choice to tune out from the peripheral programming and tune into our soul by listening to our intuition. Who we are is established by the quality of our source. Awareness of current events and their engineered complexities may harvest knowledge of society. However, consciousness empowers understanding, manifesting our universal experience of being. When we are enamored with the bells and whistles of the mediacracy, we are only emulating artificiality. When we are related with our soul, we are sourced by the universe.

Universal Source

Our soul and the universe are one. Our intuition resonates with the energy of our universality. This synergy between the universe and our soul empowers us to transcend the duality of the mediacracy. Our heart center enlightens our mind and enlivens our body with this energy to transform us, our environment and social reality. Breaking the vicious cycle of artificiality is our common purpose. Creating our unique experience is our personal destiny. When we observe, understand, express and embody our universality, we are one with all. Everything else is opinion.

“Streaming universality is the source of conscious experience.”

The Experience of Empowerment

November 12, 2022 / Iam Saums / Leave a comment

“Reality is enabled by the acquiescence of our personal power.”

False Personality

There is a commonality in all our personal rackets. Those which we expend all our effort and energy to defend with our false personalities. What is a “false personality?” It is likely the one reading this article. Our false personality is the virtual projection of ourselves we present to the world. One cleverly sculpted by our social indoctrination through our education, heredity, politics, religion and social engagement. We all have one. However, it is unnecessary to conceal our fears, insecurities and triviality in justification of our personal apathy, indifference and oblivion. Unless we concede to the influence and imposition of social reality.

Human Nature

All of us believe, hear, know and see only what we want. We don’t even seek to understand ourselves or the society in which we are imprisoned, let alone all sides of our experiences. Our priorities are to accumulate, amuse, breed, consume, debate, intellectualize, proselytize and sleep. This dualistic dance sends billions of empty souls to the grave long before their time. Living in personal oblivion is the greatest vicious cycle ever enacted in the history of humanity. Occasionally, we stir from our selective slumber to rebel against things we do not fully understand. Yet, we rarely exhibit the devotion, focus or intention to transform them.

The Listening We Feign

Contemporary society does not encourage authentic listening. Most people do not genuinely hear others because they fail to heed themselves. Therefore, they echo the commotion of social reality, carelessly engaging with instinctual and intellectual declarations of ignorance and insolence. Perceptual filters blind and consume our awareness, condensing it into a competitive existence of psychological controversy. We are wired into a vicious cycle of reactivity, motivated by our feigned responses of duplicity. We do not listen because it does not sponsor the agendas and strategies our egos employ. This is the bane of our humanity.

The Listening We Are

Authentic listening begins with empathy, observation and silence, both within and without. It is an internal expression of being, aligning us with the universe, empowered by our soul and inspired by our intuition. We cannot understand listening until we hear the voice of our being beyond our unconscious emotionality, intellect and instincts. When we give the gift of listening to ourselves and others, we are a beacon of empowerment. Personally, this is the societal shift I anticipated over the last few years. However, we were so obsessed with returning to the way things were, we enabled virtual social reality once again.

“Misplaced power is the plight of humanity.”

All That Was Lost

Over ten years ago, energetic shifts in the universe began to accelerate. Those who were present to this were hopeful and inspired with the possibility of a collective progression in awareness, expression, transformation and understanding available to all. I could feel it in many experiences on multiple dimensions. No matter how authoritarian entities and organizations invented elaborate forms of amusement, distraction, fantasy, fear and trauma, the currents of energetic momentum in the universe were strong. Many were becoming conscious and empowered by these shifts. Then, the virus pandemic hijacked our curiosity, focus and intentionality for universal potentiality.

All That We Sacrifice

All of us are an infinite expression of the universe, whether we are present to or personify our multidimensionality. It is evident society does not encourage transcendent expressions of conscious being. Therefore, we are enslaved into the paradigm of social reality, condemned to instinct, thought and opinion. It is much easier to pull the wool over the eyes of humanity within a controlled environment. We have acquiesced our personal power to perceptual deception, conceding our vision, focus, intention, purpose, transformation and destiny. We sacrificed our universal being, consciousness, expression and relativity for the amusement of artificiality.

All That Is Found

Though it appears we wagered our universality for social simulations of belonging, convenience, conformity, fulfillment, reality and security, all is not lost! Our multidimensionality exists beyond the duality of our mind and body. At any moment, we can choose to shift our experience with our personal empowerment. Our heart center is the gateway to intuitive insight, inspiring us to listen and align with our soul and the universe. Enlightenment occurs when we transcend our conditioned lifestyles of attachment, egoism, expectation and materialism. We are universal energy, ever evolving and transforming into our unique expression of being.

All That Is Possible

Our soul is one with the universe. This has, is and will always be our common truth. Where we place our focus of attention is where we intend our energy. Often this is coerced and seized from us within the vicious cycles of social reality. Yet, when we align with awareness and empower our experience, we reclaim our being from the endless diversions to which we yield our personal power. It is essential we observe, differentiate, empower and transform to relate with and embody our universality. Our greatest opportunity is to manifest our creativity as our way of life. This is the natural progression of being.

The Natural Progression

All of us have a unique energy, expression, purpose and destiny. Our creativity is an embodiment of our being. When we resonate with our soul, we flow with the natural currents of the universe. Surviving social reality is a two-dimensional experience within a three-dimensional paradigm. It is the design of our enslavement. Thriving is a manifestation of omnidimensional being and understanding. It empowers our freedom. The natural progression of our universal expression requires an equilibrium of our conscious instinct, intellect, emotionality and intuition.

Experience of Empowerment

We are programmed into maturity through our dependance on and engagement in social reality. Constant conditioning, conformity and survival eventually prevents the manifestation of our personal destiny. We inevitably abandon the legacy of our universality amidst the extreme societal climates of indoctrination, institutionalization and orthodoxy. Reclaiming our personal power enlightens and synergizes our social experience. Empowerment is the momentum of our universality. Being in flow with its energy is our collective destiny. Empowering our being, transforming our experience, and inspiring others to empower theirs is the expression of our universality.

“Empowerment is the essence of conscious being.”

Beyond the Veil

October 7, 2022October 7, 2022 / Iam Saums / 4 Comments

“There is darkness…then there is light.”

Plight of the Afterlife

Centuries of extraordinary experiences have been documented about what we encounter when our soul leaves our body. All who witness these events are empowered to recall their journey. Yet, their personal revelations are often met with social anxiety, denial, dismissal, doubt, fear, insecurity and ridicule. For the experienced few, these encounters are more real than reality itself, regardless of public reaction. Many eagerly refute their remarkable experiences in a quest to discredit and scrutinize all that is contrary to the dogmas in which they are conditioned, or the artificial reality in which we are enslaved.

Experience to Remember

For over 30 years I have had these encounters. They are distinct from being awake or asleep. In my experience, it takes over 45 minutes for me to have lucid dreams, feedback from my mind releasing the past, daily events and unnecessary thought forms. As we drift off to sleep, something happens to us which transcends the REM dream state. The residual impacts of our conditioning and programming constantly impose their influence and deaden our senses. Yet, what happens in that window between awareness and slumber? And why do we fail to remember?

The Fire of Youth

As children, we can. We experience these encounters to their fullest, yet we lack the capacity to articulate, retain, apply and understand them. Eventually, the conditioning and programming of social reality compromises and diminishes our intuitive acumen and awareness. In addition, our exposure to ordinary life destroys our creativity and consciousness, severing our relatedness with the universe. The virtuality in which we exist is designed to stimulate and preoccupy our instincts and intellect, scramble our emotional being, disrupt our connection with our intuition and separate us from our soul.

The Age of Truth

As adults, we gradually surrender our intuition and evade our emotions. We are addicted and obsessed with the artificiality of society. Our social environment is not sustainable to nurture multidimensionality. However, we have the potential and possibility to experience what exists beyond three-dimensional reality. It requires observation, focus, balance, intention, expression and being to align and relate with our soul and the universe. This is the essential equilibrium between our intuition, emotion, intellect and instinct, to ground and center ourselves into the resonance of universal experience.

“We experience only a fraction of the universe.”

The Grand Illusion

Experience, relation and understanding begins with observing, accepting and transcending the greatest lie ever invented. “Reality” is real. None of this is real, at least in the way we are led to believe. It is a simulated illusion. We are born, conditioned, developed and trained to exist similar to a computer program. We interpret it as real because we are seemingly experiencing its commonalities within the paradigm of social reality. Yet, our engagement and investment in this societal matrix is the very energy enabling its existence. In essence, our life force is highjacked and manipulated by the few to enslave the many.

Sacred Space

All life empowered by the universe requires personal space for conception, evolution, existence, expression and being. For us to receive the energy of universality, we need to constantly align, center, ground, express and transform ourselves. There are energetic ebbs and flows in the universe, as there are personal shifts we must frequently experience to fulfill on our destiny. This involves our unique investment in creating, establishing and maintaining our sacred space, a personal energetic environment to cultivate our relatedness with our soul and the universe. This is our true purpose on Earth.

Who Feels It Becomes It

Our lives are lived through our perceptions. Yet, this is merely a figment of social reality. The personal power we acquiesce to our instinct and intellect imprisons us into the linear existence of duality. The body and mind are the dominating elements of our being, often overpowering our heart, intuition and soul. Each one of us emanates the energy to be creative, conscious, empowered, enlightened, intuitive and transcendent. Our choice to be all that we are expresses a universal shift relative to the birth of a star. The torus of energy in our heart center is the gateway for our soul to express universality into social reality.

The Soul Journey

The essential experience we all encounter in the moments between being awake and asleep is when our soul travels. It leaves our body and mind to journey beyond the electromagnetic barrier of the Earth’s atmosphere and known human existence. When we cross this threshold, we leave behind everything of this world to embody multidimensionality. However, when we return through this boundary to our body, we forget everything we experience while our spirit explores the universe. Our instincts and intellect are unable to comprehend our soul’s journey. Therefore, we are incapable of universal recall.

“Our energetic resonance is our universal signature.”

Are You Experienced?

It has taken me over thirty years of experiences to accept, remember, translate, integrate and understand their nature and purpose. They transpire in various ways with infinite possibilities and outcomes. Every time I return, there is an electromagnetic resonance throughout my being, in my body, mind, heart and intuition. I feel these are the remnants of universality empowering me with its multidimensional impression. This essential energy is received and synthesized with my personal consciousness, evolution and transformation.

Beyond the Veil

For the first time in three decades, I consciously experienced this transcendental shift. I was sequestered in a sacred space for days without food, water and, for the most part, light. At some point, I was able to transcend the boundaries and inclinations of my body and mind and cross the threshold into universal being. In this experience, I saw light in the darkness, heard sound in the silence, found clarity in the chaos and felt who I am and how I exist beyond my personal perception. I recalled where I travelled and the experience of progressively shifting and returning to my body.

Soul Return Experience

One reason we cannot remember when our soul travels is due to the intense process of re-integrating into our body and mind. In spirit, we are related with the universe as a multidimensional expression of energy. The best word to illustrate this is “universality.” When we return from our experience, the progression from being one with essence to existing in a three-dimensional reality with a two-dimensional existence is equivalent to condensing an ocean into a stream. This “reality” we adopt and emulate is the dream. We simply fail to nurture the necessary, energetic containment and expression to empower and inspire universality.

Afterglow

Reintegrating into social reality is not the most challenging experience when our soul journeys beyond the veil. It is the return to our self and who we have become that presents the greatest adversity. In my recent encounter, I recalled most of my experience, yet little of who I had been. Though I have become accustomed to these energetic shifts, I am not fully present to or related with the person I am now. I am in transition. As mentioned in previous articles, I am not inspired to simply know about these explorations. Knowing is an interpretation based on instinct and intellect. I am empowered by the experience of understanding my soul’s relation and resonance with the universe.

A Force of the Universe

“Duality is the bane of existence.”

Heaven and Hell

Recently, I travelled to Northern Michigan to visit family. Scanning through the radio stations in the rural areas I came across several religious programs. While I waited for the station to change, I caught some of the content. There were undercurrents of “Heaven and Hell.” Most of it fear-based threats of dwelling in the latter if you didn’t believe. I smiled, shook my head and pondered why so many people are obsessed with the paradigm of a dualistic afterlife. Then it occurred to me, why does it have to be one or the other? Are these the only options? Intuition “saved” me from the instinctual and intellectual ping-pong of religion.

Re-Entry

A week ago, I returned from an annual event in which I participate. It is difficult to describe with words, so I will not attempt. I will say that it is a community experience where people work together and support each other in an extraordinary experience of relativity. The event is so intense and powerful, I release all the things I am exposed to in my daily life. When I return to society, the distinction between where I have been and what I am walking back into is a cultural shock to awakened senses. The key is to sustain my connection with this way of being, amid society’s strategies to impose competition, conformity and duality.

By Design

Social reality is an artificial system of control. If this is not apparent to us now, perhaps it never will be. We all have a common choice to shift how we act, think, feel, behave and be. Many of us invest in social reality, carving our little piece of artificial heaven, which often manifests as our personal hell. Many of us may even believe our selfish desire to bolster our individual ego, experience, power and status is happiness. This is furthest from the truth. Yet, suggesting this to people often provokes their delicate dander’s in defense of what “they” alone believe to be true. Truth is a way of being, illuminating, progressing and transforming our experience.

Weapons of Social Distraction

The greatest distractions are those preventing us from observing and releasing our obsession with their triviality. Society is addicted and dependent upon amusement. Even the seemingly meaningful events in our lives are diversions from genuine consciousness, creativity, relativity and transformation. Finding and sustaining our personal balance with all the dimensions of our experience is essential in manifesting our empowerment, enlightenment and transcendence from linear reality. First, we must be present to and accountable for the distractions we allow to influence and alter our unique destiny.

“We exist in mind and body, devoid of heart, intuition and soul.”

The Truth of Reality

Our experience of life has been highjacked. We are influenced and programmed by covert, authoritarian organizations with the strategic purposes of exercising control, imposing fear, generating profit and projecting artificial power. Beyond our anxiety, conditioning, denial, insecurity, oblivion and self-righteousness, all of us feel this to be true. We simply believe negating their existence will prevent their agendas. This is exactly what they desire. To coin a phrase, “the greatest trick the Devil ever played on humanity was to convince the world he doesn’t exist.” Millions of people have acquiesced into this collective obscurity.

The Reality of Truth

Personal truth cannot be discovered or explored in a congregational paradigm. Yet, society is rife with political, religious and social groups to distort and ultimately condition our individual understanding. What is the bittersweet reality of being our truth? It is a singular experience with little to no social encouragement, empowerment or support. In every way, we face extreme adversity in our quest to stand in our authentic power. However, personal truth can be influenced by our ego, transmuting it into delusion. One collective truth transcends our pride and prejudice. It is the universal truth with which we all resonate.

The Empowerment of Being

All who choose to be an expression of the universe must release their individual interpretation of how their truth exists. Being present to our universality empowers us to observe, envision, focus, intend and become its embodiment. Knowing is an expression of our ego. Understanding is the experience of being one with the universe. It can be said that enlightenment is a fantasy of the mind. Whereas empowerment is the force of the universe, inspiring us within the flow of its natural progression. Freedom from instinctual and intellectual attachments empowers our being with universal energy.

Resonance and Relativity

Beyond our body, mind, heart, intuition and soul, we are a unique frequency of energy. Becoming it requires us to establish and sustain an equilibrium with all elements of our being. When we are aligned with the universe, our soul resonates through our intuition, emanates from our heart center, empowers our mind and body and transforms our experience and environment. Maintaining this resonance is our purpose. Expressing it into our personal lives is its relativity. Our resonance and relativity are the cornerstones to being an expression of the universe. They are the prime elements of our universality.

Universal Experience

Standing in our truth is a challenging endeavor in a society imposing control, corruption, manipulation and the elimination of insight, vision, expression and being. It is not just the cascade of contention we encounter in social reality. It is the resistance within us which far exceeds the societal reactivity ultimately compromising our universal relativity. When we stand against the currents of society, we are a force of the universe. Our personal truth is merely a steppingstone to discover, embrace and align with universal truth. Our common destiny is to transform our social encounters into universal experiences.

“Universality is the expression of our soul.”

A Source of Creation

“Universality is the origin of our creativity.”

Sleight of Social Reality

The common reality we adopt and accept is an illusion. It is a perceptual projection driven by our engagement and interaction. The more we invest our focus and energy, the more we manifest it into our experience. It is a hacked simulation to distract and preoccupy us with the trivialities of “life.” This is the ultimate conspiracy theory, because the collective, cognitive dissonance of humanity refuses to accept the truth. We are enslaved by social reality.

My friend Elva Thompson recently wrote an article, “You Will Own Nothing.” She writes about how we are all programs of artificial intelligence. Everything we are, do and achieve is an orchestrated replication. Our beliefs, instincts, thoughts and emotions are conditioned, behavioral patterns sustaining our artificiality. We sacrifice our soul upon the altar of knowledge. Knowing this is one thing. Understanding it is the beginning of our freedom.

Signature Watermark

Our unique creativity cannot be truly observed, experienced, expressed or made manifest within the imposed domains of education, media, occupation, politics, religion and society. We are not taught how to transcend the design of our enslavement. We are influenced to adopt, enable, enforce and maintain the status quo of authoritarian indoctrination. Now more than ever, we need to stand for, empower and express our creativity and imagination.

Each of us has a unique perception of the universe, ourselves and society. The social reality in which we exist is contrary to our conscious understanding. Creating in the wake of its currents is a common practice for artists dedicated to their personal expression. When the tides of humanity ebb and flow with global circumstances and events, conscious beings align with the universe, establish their equilibrium, focus their expression and embody universality.

The Art of Understanding

In the previous article, “From Vision to Being,” I drew the distinction between knowing and understanding our experience. Knowing is a declaration of our intellect. Whereas understanding is an expression of our soul. It is the difference between thinking our way through life and being a personification of the universe. There are many things we will never know, at least in the ways we believe, desire or expect. Understanding provides us the opportunity to be.

To fulfill our understanding, it is essential to establish equilibrium between the domains of our being. This empowers our ability to align ourselves with our universality. Understanding is a multidimensional experience, requiring the balance of our body, mind and heart to relate with our soul. When we shift the focus of our intention from knowing to understanding, an extraordinary expansion of consciousness occurs. Understanding is the cornerstone of our awareness.

“Conscious being is creativity.”

Common Tones

All of us have unique elements of our being to express our originality. For all the diversities that define our personality, there are vital qualities we all share. Regardless of belief, experience, heredity, ideology, interpretation, perception, politics, race and religion, we all have a soul. Our soul synergizes with the universe, providing us an abundance of empowerment and energy. This is true for all of us, no matter what personal or socially induced filters we apply to our experience.

We all have an intuition which functions as an avenue through which our universality relates with the rest of our being. Our heart center is a powerful, electromagnetic torus of energy, expressing itself beyond the acuity of our awareness. Our mind is an app we use to interpret and apply all we are into the three-dimensional domain of human existence. Our body is our vehicle, driven primarily by action, desire and instinct.

Creative Dynamics

Creativity is the expression of our universality. We are not artists, simply observers, interpreters and ambassadors of universal experience. Our soul is one with the universe. When we are aligned and related, we discover, experience and express the source of creation. Insight, inspiration and manifestation begins when we release our instinct, intellect and toxic emotionality to embrace the energy of universality. Our relativity with being is the expression of our creativity.

Our soul emanates universality. Our intuition receives and transmits this energy to the centers of our being. Our heart center is the focal point of how we synergize our multidimensionality. When we are balanced, our intuition, heart and mind transform universal epiphanies into inspiration, sending empowerment and energy for its expression. Whether we are conveying art or life, our creative dynamic is empowered by our consciousness.

Source of Being

In social reality, spiritual experience is commonly perceived as delusion, fantasy or imaginary. Relativity with the universe is almost impossible to encounter; let alone create, establish and sustain. Artificiality is the existential ego of social reality. Fear, insecurity and self-righteousness annihilates our creative expression. Every moment is an opportunity to align, focus, ground, center and shift our experience. We are only as eloquent as our relativity with the universe.

All we desire, think, say or do is irrelevant in relation to who we are. Many believe our instincts, thoughts and actions are the key elements of our existence. However sensible this may seem; it is furthest from the truth. Our vision, observation, focus, experience, expression and being is the omnidimensional progression of how to shift and transform social reality. We fulfill our universality when we manifest the unique expression of our being.

Video Interview with Lorenzo Malowane of “The New Agora” presented by “The New Now.”

“Love is an experience of being related.”

Being the Love We Are

We all need to be loved, even when we are not being loving to ourselves or others. One of the most challenging aspects in practicing love is our ability to see how often we are not loving ourselves. When we neglect to grant ourselves this necessity, we cannot express it towards others. Our self-loathing compromises our genuine ability to share love with all. My experience with loving is accepting others for who they are and who they are not. Authentic relativity is observing the uniqueness each of us offer and understanding the blessing it brings to the world.

The Universality of Love

Most often in society, love is as an instinctual desire. It is often misinterpreted and misrepresented as sexual attraction. Once this itch is scratched, many move on to satiate the next one. This is the lowest level of relativity. If a connection is made between the individuals, an intellectual encounter occurs. Though, this experience is one steeped in duality where many reside here to relate primarily with their minds and bodies.

When we allow ourselves to open and be vulnerable, we enter the emotionality of relationships. For many this takes years of relation for it to begin, and even this may be an instinctual form of feeling. However, some do choose to connect on an emotional level and develop and nurture their heart center. This is where the magic begins. Given the heart is the gateway to the soul, when two people choose this experience, their intuitions guide them to the universality of love.

Acceptance and Understanding

The two most absent qualities in the last couple of years has been acceptance and understanding. In a society where communication, relativity and workability have broken down, it is plain to see how detrimental their absence has been in regard to our collective evolution. Acceptance is a cornerstone of love and understanding its foundation. In these times of isolation in the interest of health and well-being (someone explain that one to me!), it isn’t the distance we have with others, it is the separation from ourselves and more accurately our souls.

The Freedom Within

We are separated from ourselves. Most are not able to accept let alone understand this reality. Being in the experience of love calls us to be related and in love with ourselves so we may share it with others. Each of our journeys is unique. We will not find love for ourselves when we seek it in those around us. We can only experience it within. Given that most of us do not know who we are, this makes being in love impossible. We may believe we are, yet belief and being are very different things. Creating and becoming love empowers us to share in its experience.

“Love is being in the moment so much that nothing else matters.”

The Art of Equilibrium

“We are diamonds with infinite facets of existence.”

Mortal Metamorphosis:

At birth, our soul transitions from the source of all creation, embodying elemental and planetary properties before manifesting as an embryo. What is occurring in the universe in these moments has significance to who, how, why and what we are to become. The sequence of events leading to our arrival is unique on a soul level, as we choose the progression of our terrestrial evolution. This metamorphosis is so powerful, we often fail to retain any recollection of our experience. Our everyday collective conditioning further obscures our universal understanding, as does the absence of universality in social reality. In essence, our being is diminished and enslaved energetically, intuitively and emotionally for assimilation into an instinctual and intellectual existence.

Solar Origins:

For thirty years, I have had multidimensional experiences. When I was younger, I participated in a ceremony that activated a powerful, soul memory. I recalled moving through a glass corridor surrounded in light. I realized I was on the surface of the Sun. I observed its solar flares and winds dancing like waves on the ocean. At the end of the passage, I crossed a threshold into an octangular-sided room. It was darker than the corridor yet illuminated with flames moving through its wood walls like the blaze of a campfire. On the far side, an upended tree’s roots flared out encompassing half the room. I was guided to climb into the center of the tree and lay down on an altar. Soon after, I returned to my body and realized this experience was a universal recall of my soul’s journey to earth.

The Greatest Deception:

Nothing is as it seems. Most of what we believe, know, think and do is perceived through our filters of instinct and intellect. Therefore, we do not create, we merely react to recurring events, situations and outcomes. Our existence is confiscated from us long before we have an awareness or comprehension of its universal potentiality. In essence, we live in an artificial reality invented to serve an invisible authority with the sole purpose of enabling our enslavement. Society prohibits and restricts emotion, intuition and spirituality. It takes the greatest elements of our personal power and weaponizes it against us, making all that is sacred sacrilege and all that is profane revered. We instinctually and intellectually engage and exist in a virtual program, tethering ourselves to social reality.

Tapestry of Trauma:

Our lives are riddled with suffering. We associate this with our conditions, leading us to apathy, despair and remorse. We disempower ourselves with the mere threat of pain, building personal bubbles to defend our programmed beliefs, fears and insecurities. This is our strategy to avoid the agony of experiencing our chronic negligence and resistance to evolve. It seems much easier to sacrifice our personal power upon the digital altar of society. When we choose to exercise self-observation, the realization of our self-deception is infinitely more traumatizing. We believe our survival from suffering is a badge of honor we carry with distinction and pride, perceiving ourselves as better, stronger and wiser than others. This is the delusion we endorse to evade our pain. We employ duplicity to conceal our deficiencies from the world and ourselves.

“Our pain is a reminder of our purpose.”

Opportunity for Awareness:

We are all programs integrated into a holographic projection, existing in the matrix of social reality. We accept this paradigm because we neglect to sever our tether from its imposition and influence. It is all we experience of life. Our acquiescence is established, justified and satiated on a daily basis. Every day, we awaken and accept a simulated dream enabled by our compliance, engagement and fear. Every day, we relinquish our personal power to an external force, as we gather a meager existence within reality’s virtual parameters in our desire for self-gratification. Again and again and again…ad infinitum. This is the “dream” we live more often than we care to admit. We are the key to the evolution and freedom we deny ourselves every time we pass on our opportunity for consciousness.

The Forest for the Trees:

We are multidimensional beings of energy, yet we have achieved a fraction of our potentiality. In the space of all possibility, we opt to exclusively personify ourselves in our mind and body. Though we perceive this as attainment, our encounters with instinct and intellect are superficial. We all have a choice to be proactive or reactive. Proactive people create, empower and transform their experience to enrich their lives and those of others. Reactive people often avoid, defer and procrastinate until their circumstances elicit rash decisions, leaving them disempowered and victimized. Destiny is created by vision, focus, intention and purpose. Fate occurs when we refuse to choose, wagering our transformation for our defenses, fears and self-righteousness. Establishing and expressing our personal power is the vital distinction between surviving and thriving.

Yin and Yang:

We are unbalanced. Men are predominately male and women primarily female. Yet, we have both masculine and feminine qualities. Society conditions us to be one or the other. This causes gender conflicts within us and ultimately in society. Men may mistake their femininity as homosexuality, gravitating towards aggression, insensitivity and violence to compensate. While women may embrace masculinity at the expense of their femininity to compete and excel in a patriarchal society. We have been conditioned to repress the alternative virtues of our gender for fear of defamation, embarrassment and ridicule. This has divided our being and our relations. Gender equality begins within. Observing and embracing our diverse natures offers us the opportunity to create our balance and transform how relativity exists for all.

Consciousness Rising:

One of the greatest societal deceptions imposed upon us is the belief we are human beings. We are all souls manifesting ourselves with our intuition, heart, mind and body. How we exist in social reality is defined by who we choose to be. Most dwell in the dense, energetic vibrations of instinct and intellect. However, now more than ever, a rising tide of conscious beings are emerging from the simulation, whose sheer presence compromises its agenda, control and influence. Many are caught in the social crossfire, taking up arms against their family members, friends and acquaintances to protect their duplicity. For all who choose to experience universality by balancing their soul with their intuition, heart, mind and body, it is beyond the choice. It is our realization of who we are destined to be.

The Boundary of Being:

Twenty-Five years ago, I was staying with family in Northern Michigan. I drifted off and instantly found myself standing on a threshold. It was a massive, vertical wall of living energy. I was in between the realm of social reality and something beyond imagination. Curiosity inspired me to move through the barrier, and I lost consciousness of this realm. Years later, I received an insight. There is a boundary of being related to the Earth’s electro magnetosphere. When we cross it, everything of this world disappears. When we return to this reality, we fail to recall who we become and where we travel. We are omnidimensional beings existing in numerous realms. Our ability to journey beyond the boundaries of existence is empowered and sustained by our personal equilibrium.

The Art of Equilibrium:

We are in a new era of being. One encouraging us to observe our vision, hone our focus, establish our balance, express our intention, embody our purpose and create our experience. Our lives are a labor of love, inspired by our originality, relativity and truth. Our exodus from the simulation of social reality into the progression of universal being is omnipresent. We are in the shift of experiencing the synergy of our creation. Everything familiar, known, thought or understood stands to negate this evolution. The equilibrium we empower, enhance and establish expresses our universality. It is our signature, the unique impression we inspire within ourselves and others. When we are in the flow or our experience, the resonance of our energy is the declaration and manifestation of our being.

“Omnidimensionality is our universal destiny.”
