Ever since I was little I would see Monks and I was just mesmerized. Maybe it was because they were mostly solemn and quiet (like me)... Maybe it was because I noticed they tend to be watchful of every move they make... However I was never into the religion, but instead the workings behind it...
Please don't be offended. It's not that I "hate" religion at all - I just had to dig past ALL of it, to find what I was searching for.
So today if I had no limits, no restrictions I would want to be a sort of "monk," (so to speak) but not your ordinary monk... No not Chance... I'm too weird for that.
I would have too create this "monkness" It would need to fit a specific lifestyle, created by openminded kindness.
See there would be no leader or hierarchy... No money tricks, no begging from people, no guilt trips...
Its not even on that level of existence... If its real it would create its own way, it always does...
Even inside there is no "great one" no leader, no servants, we are all equals but take turns being of service and of leadership.
The Monk with the best idea of greatness would be head monk for the day, week, month, year. A Challenge would be set to always provide a higher state of being, and to give back what was taken. We would promote things like "farm to fork," respect for the environment... Never an agenda... If you cut down 1 tree replace it with 2, just simple stuff like that. As for doing what monks do... Well it gets a little "mystical" there.
We would just be normal people by day, and Monks when we are doing "Monkness". Nothing weird, nothing strange even. It would be a very open society, not secretive, or illusive.
In this Priory, we would behold to the smoldering spark of what once was the Universal Light of the Great Ancients," the One light that was the cause of "ALL THAT IS" (GOD, Father, Abba, Elohim, Allah, Brahman, the Atum, IAM, Creator, Source, The Universe - whatever you feel comfortable with) . This all goes beyond any religion, or doctrine of today and even co-mingles creation with an honest view of evolution. This is the knowledge of old before religions ever came to be. So there is a freedom in that. An innocence, a freshness, a relief.
See in this there is no external savior (per say) because there is no religion to build a mulit-billion business upon that sways governments and men's pocket books. That never means Jesus wasn't a very important being or that his words should ever be overlooked... Which is exactly what most all churches have done to make themselves relevant to those who keep the "business" going...
The one truth is simple... There is no beginning or ending because its an eternal loop. There is also "laws" (constructs-agreements) not of men that govern the whole universe, even the heart that beats in our chest.
Those are the "laws" that govern who I am, who I become, and they are Universal, not worldly - so for instance the law of gravity doesn't apply except for planet earth. See you have to start thinking very different. And this so called LAW of ATTRACTION is very real, but not a Universal Law. It is instead a meshing of them, so its a silent Law, often with a big mouth and empty pockets... Also being formed into a religion...
We forget who we are... We are eternal beings wrapped in this earthy meat suit to experience LIFE. We lost the true definition of living a very long time ago. I want to bring it back where it can be felt within... Like I feel it sometimes and I know how to do it, just cant do it on demand...
We are living a micro-second of a time where there is no time. The definitions are not as we think... Not even close in most cases...
Heaven and hell are back to simple energy levels. Light and darkness are high and low frequencies. Good and bad are thoughts that travel throughout the energy fields and are only there as contrast to even know what is what.
It's not hard... Just very hard for preconditioned guilt ridden people to grasp. Yet we all KNOW this when we are back to our non-physical selves... Some of us maybe just didn't forget all of it when we went physical (like we are supposed to... or are we supposed too?)
So sure all the teaching of the ancients are allowed simply because they ALL carry that same common thread once the religions and mans doctrines are removed. The real teachings of Jesus Christ or (Yahshua Ha Masheiac) would be known once more, taught and used (which include white alchemy which was his first "miracle"). Yet also the teachings of Buddha, the Tao, ZEN, even dive into the Greek gods and where they found their vast wisdom, and much more....
There would be nothing banned... It would have a vast library of all sorts of books about LIFE at every level.
Every technological tool we needed to create a book which I will not give the title because I have been writing it since I was 15. Lets just say its a book for the ages, something no one will ever forget if they ever read it...
Study of anything would be allowed... if it was to find greatness within it.
If we wanted to look into Islam we would look for "the specific common thread" (which is there by the way), not what is (or might be wrong with it). If we wanted to look into Zen Buddhism and learn to find what we are searching for by surprise then so be it. The COMMON THREAD is the ruler of mindfulness... No one man owns the rights to that "Eternal Thread", therefore no one man is ruler over another, but rules by his kindness to all he has learned...
This monk thing... It most likely would be my secret obsession, beyond any physical ones I have.
I would call this "mystic monks" but there are already a real mystic monks monastery and they sell coffee also... So I don't have a name.... : (
Maybe I could find a castle... and make it like a Bed and Breakfast or vacation learning experience. It needs to be in the mountains but also near big water (ocean preferably) ... I don't think I would have many visitors these days... but who knows??
I guess we could sell weed, get us a swami, a shaman, a witch doctor, a wizard, and some fine witches also... This could be quite a place when a specific task is in mind... or we might be making our own aurora borealis every night....
Yep I have some really big big deep dreams... Yet in some freakish way... they could be as real as this Mac Book...
