Wings of freedom BY DESTINI THOMPSON
"There's nothing you can dream that can't be dreamt" constitutes an underlying innuendo in a heartwarming movie about a precocious little girl with a creative mind that enriches her relationship with her workaholic father. In the cinematic comedy "Imagine That," the message is indelibly seared on the psyche of viewers that we are all stars in one sky and that all things are imaginable. Reality refers to all that exists and happens and includes the awareness of such. The majestic life is arrayed with serene acceptance, overwhelming fulfilment and ethereal wholeness. The symbol of house depicts femininity, the symbol of occupant depicts masculinity and a child is an interwoven wholeness growing out of the blissful union of his or her father with his or her mother. The Sun is a spherical, gaseous child of wholeness, which emits immense quantities of light, whereas the Moon is a spherical, maternal object of beauty, with a reflective surface, which houses and empties itself of the light from the Sun. The Planet Earth produces life in strong, paternal abundance and is a unique platform for plants, animals and people. A child partakes of life hidden in his or her mother's pelvis in water prior to birth before partaking of life exposed in the domain of his or her father on land after birth, and the spirit is hidden from the physical body by the maternal brain when asleep and is exposed to the paternal physical body when awake. In other words, your flying spirit of fire is housed and unhoused during the sleep cycle by the beautiful waters of your brain, which is housed by the strong land of your body as a part of existence, and the potential for a holistic knowledge of all of existence occupies your spiritual awareness. It is interesting to contemplate the life of a turtle and its dual citizenship permitting it a somewhat cyclical awareness of receding into its shell's interior as contrasted with an awareness of what transpires on its shell's exterior. Other illustrative ideas of a person's tripartite nature are that of amphibious organisms, such as frogs, which migrate from life in water to life on land, as well as the athletic endeavour of tennis, in which one ball vacillates between two opposing domains as facilitated by the skill and the finesse of the competitors. If this is analogous to a person's spiritual awareness traversing his or her mental environment and his or her physical environment, then does one comprehensive set of scientific laws make a marionette or a puppet out of both realms and the consciousness which travels between them? Each person has the capacity to assess what is possible at a given moment, and to personally decide upon a course of action or inaction from among his or her options, as well as the capacity to act without such assessment having taken place. The ability to auto-nomously assess one's options allows an individual to act without reference to the instructions of another person and without reference to a pattern of behaviour which may have been exhibited by another. Further, as it is possible for the human will to dominate most innate propensities, this means that it is possible for a person to opt to rebel against the natural mental signal to exclusively pursue pleasant sensations, and it is possible for a person to opt to rebel against nature's urging for him or her to pursue a viable means to survive and flourish as an individual. The will is the spiritual aspect of a person which flies freely when a person is awake, and voluntarily initiates those activities of the brain and the body which are not reflexive. In a sense, those events may be described as free which entail their occurrence in a virtual realm prior to their occurrence in the actual realm, with a decision-maker operating to effect or negate the duplication or actualization of the event. This weak-sense notion of free will is compatible with the theory of determinism to the extent that a distinction is made between the character of boss (i.e. the laws of nature or their author) and that of a decision-making agent. However, contra-causal free will defines a free will agent as a potentially random and original initiator of events and it is not compatible with the theory of determinism be-cause it maintains that each person veritably co-dictates the events of his or her life whereas the theory of determinism permits only one legitimate dictator of all aspects of existence. Each person has fixed requirments consisting of air, water, food, sleep, and physical contact for his or her personal survival. The three inherent virtues that we seek to augment are beauty, strength, and knowledge, and the three inherent vices that we seek to diminish are ugliness, weakness, and ignorance. The pelvis may be viewed as a feminine house of beauty shadowed by ugliness, the rib cage as a masculine house of strength shadowed by weakness, and the skull as a neutral house of knowledge shadowed by ignorance. A person's skull, pelvis and rib cage may be respectively analogized with a person's spirit, mind and body. The body is a physical vehicle, which houses the mental vehicle of the brain, whereas the spirit occupies the brain, and is the driver of both vehicles. The bodies of females tend to resemble the shape of a pear due to a wider pelvis, the bodies of males tend to resemble the shape of an apple due to a wider rib cage. The body of a child may be symbolically represented as a mango or a skull by virtue of the way in which the Sun is centred at the helm of the Solar System. The buttocks reject the death-suggesting waste of harm from the pelvis thus signifying basic fear, the breasts of a mother offer the life-sustaining food of help from the rib cage thus signifying advanced love, and the head transcends categorization as masculine or feminine and signifies freedom. Gravity exerts somewhat of a depressive force on objects, attracting materials towards the core of the Earth, and it also exists around and between objects, and keeps celestial bodies in their respective motions. Homo sapiens are regarded as the crown jewel on the biological horizon in a manner reminiscent to the way in which: the great white shark is deemed the chief predator of the seas, the lion is regarded as the king of the jungle and the eagle is christened as the presidential navigator of the air. Plants are constrained by their attachment to the Planet Earth similar to the way in which a person's skull is attached to his or her rib cage. Animals are free to move around similar to the way in which the attachment between an infant and his or her mother is severed subsequent to an infant's skull departing his or her mother's pelvis. People are free to fly due to the human spirit which has the capacity to formulate instructions by way of an inner voice. The laws governing civilizations are based in nature, or the divine architect of nature, and are continuously elaborated upon and refined by people, to promote an orderly and dignified way of life amongst humanity. Human rationality means that people are able to investigate what is necessary for things or events to exist or happen as well as the potential or actual usefulness of things or events and human beings possess an innate capacity to interpret situations known as intuition. It is readily apparent that the laws of nature permit an immense amount of variation and the imagination is most assuredly each person's own fluidly maternal dream realm. The flavour of an aspiration tasted as a dream in the mirror realm is superceded by that same aspiration eventually being experienced as a concrete reality. The wholesome essence of a person is the aspect of you who tastes the intangible prior to experiencing the tangible. A person is a spiritual awareness whose consciousness is cloaked by his or her mental universe, amidst the universal physical cloak, and whose consciousness has the potential to embrace all people, places, things, ideas and events as a whole. Love is generally regarded as the most uplifting and magical emotion that a person can experience. Empathy is the facet of love which entails a person's capacity to imagine himself or herself to be another, and to assess such a hypothetical experience to the extent that one may anticipate what is likely to help or hurt another person in the real world, by way of reference to one's self as a person sharing a common nature with humanity. Love is typically expressed by way of carefully observing a person, maintaining physical closeness, exchanging passionate words, arduous actions and meaningful gifts. If a person's natural inertia, or reluctance to work, is not regulated, then it may result in wasted time, unutilized energy and a lower standard of living for him or her. Your purest nature unconditionally directs you to avoid death, pain, shame, isolation and internal punishment, and to pursue life, pleasure, pride, connection and internal reward. Maturity is demonstrated by a keen understanding of the emotional forces of fatherly love and motherly fear, which operate within you in tandem (Continued on Page 5) |
