About Loss And Recovery Of Personal Power
How many times have I made a certain decision in order to keep peace
, gain acceptance, or feel valuable - perhaps without even knowing it?
To provide a current example, this last week I gave into pressure by a friend to spend a night in a poor spot for me. For a long time now I have been working to create a dream body. I have been working to realize that I am dreaming and to be able to do simple, purposeful acts in the Dream space. In order to do this work, I need to sleep in unpolluted setting.
Last week, my friend begged me to stay with her because she was lonesome and scared. Problem was, her dwelling was dirty and disorderly. Yet there was a secret part of me that wanted to feel needed. I didn't want to see it, so I told myself a lie. I said to myself I would take care of her by spending time with her. I quieted the little voice that told me that to stay there was opposing.
To use the language of Don Miguel Ruiz, many times we agree to things unconsciously. We make unspoken agreements in order to stave off our shadows, our demons, without admitting it. Sometimes the other person's shadow complements ours and a marriage is made in hell. Many times, the other person consciously or unconsciously states, "No thanks". Usually that's when we feel they are heartless, callous, sadistic, self centered, and harsh. In whatever they respond, a piece of us is lost. Each time we give away true power in hopes of gaining worldly control, a piece of us is lost.
The problem about losses of this kind is that they are not simply in the mind. Koyote the Blind talks about how we often lose pieces of ourselves through sexual relationships. This type of example illustrates that the loss is physical. It's not just in our heads. A piece of our available energy is removed.
Of the shamans I have heard speak about loss of this sort, E.J. Gold is the most explicit about what occurs to those lost pieces. Gold says that when we pick an alternative less than completely consciously, we also make the other choice - also unconsciously. At that point of making an unconscious choice, we spawn a parallel universe.
A parallel universe is exactly
what it sounds like. It is a universe just like this one, except that in one, I made the other choice. Of course, from that instance onward, the universe could become increasingly different, depending on how consequential the choice was. Think of someone who got drunk in Vegas and woke up married. Lucky for them, in the parallel universe they fell asleep with their face in the cake.
Parallel universes exist, at least on some interpretations of string theory in physics. Where are parallel universes? They interpenetrate one another in knotted dimensions. We're going past ourselves in parallel universes all the time, but normally we have no access to those other selves.
You can think of parallel universes like a camera lens. You can concentrate the camera on your neighbor's puppy or you can focus the camera on the blade of grass by her left paw. It is impossible to see both images clearly at the same time. The camera lens in the case of parallel universes is what the Toltecs call the assemblage point. The assemblage point is part of what creates our perceptual system. It is the lens that filters out most of the rays of creation, simultaneously creating our home world, our home universe.
E.J. Gold has invented a device called the Beacon. It is a radio circuit with quartz crystal grips. One important use of the Beacon is recapitulation, the recovery of lost parts of ourselves. Often the recapitulation of the shamans is also called "Soul Retrieval," but the term is technically not correct.
Many of us at The Tequihua Foundation have been using the Beacon with Aka Dua, a Toltec substance that can be used to transform unconscious acts and emotions into tangible energetic effects. Some people use Aka Dua energy in healing, art, or yoga, to name a few.
The Beacon can assist us in getting the lost parts back again. The Aka Dua can assist us in keeping them. Call The Tequihua Foundation for more information about the Beacon and Aka Dua: 951-686-3471. www.tequihuafoundation.org
