 110. Music, Mystic Revelation |
After we reached the other side I said thank you and goodbye for now to the four boatman. I and my inner friend started walking and soon came to another obstacle in our way. The obstacle was a man-made barrier called THE WALL of many bricks, and it blocked our path. This wall was very large and incredibly complicated in its construction. Most of the living bricks just associated them selves with the wall, and most were proud to be part of the wall. But one brick seemed to be made of gold. This special brick knew that ALL IN ALL THE OTHERS WERE JUST BRICKS IN THE WALL. This special brick said he became a golden brick because he suddenly realized that he was not just made from the dust or clay of the ground, with his disassociation and internal alchemy he transformed himself from a so-called ordinary brick to a highly refined element of gold, and he radiated this brightness to help get the attention of the other bricks so that they also could be free of the wall which blocked the spiritual path.
Standing by this wall were many young and talented beings of bright inner light. They were the creative, adventurous and sometimes desperate pioneers who risked their outer life and inner Self to find a better way to live a natural life, some were successful, some died, and some were abandoned by their elders, but every single one of them knew there was a better way and was willing to lose everything in order to find the truth of living.
Many of these musical mystics were singing and playing what seemed to be different types of musical instruments or sound generators to get other beings to listen to them. The four boatmen who we left behind now appeared in front of us. They joined the beings of bright inner light and sang about INSTANT KARMA, and WATCHING THE WHEELS GO ROUND, and ONCE THERE WAS A WAY BACK HOME, one sang while his GUITAR GENTLY WEPT others sang about being DUST IN THE WIND another sang about A BAD MOON RISING and one had BETTER RUN THROUGH THE JUNGLE some sang DON'T HELP THEM TO BURY THE LOVE, and TOGETHER WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL. Another sang about SO OFTEN WE LIVE OUR LIVES IN CHAINS AND NEVER KNOW WE HAVE THE KEY. One sang about THE ANSWER IS BLOW'IN IN THE WIND, and COME TAKE THIS BADGE (of egoic identification) OFF OF ME...I CAN'T USE IT ANYMORE. I FEEL LIKE I'M KNOCKING ON HEAVEN'S DOOR, another was screaming as loud as he could to BREAK ON THROUGH, BREAK ON THROUGH, BREAK ON THROUGH TO THE OTHER SIDE. Still others sang, COME ON PEOPLE NOW. SMILE ON YOUR BROTHER, EVERYBODY GET TOGETHER AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER, RIGHT NOW. As John the beloved sang about INSTANT KARMA he asked WHY ARE YOU THERE (in a separate state) WHEN YOUR EVERYWHERE (a universal spirit) a group of singers asked IF YOU CAN TELL HEAVEN FROM HELL, BLUE SKY'S FROM PAIN - CAN YOU TELL A GREEN FIELD, FROM A COLD STEEL RAIN (i.e. Do you understand and see the difference from being identified with the body-brain or being spiritually free as SELF). Another group asked everyone to REACH OUT AND TOUCH THE FLAME - ON THE HIGH DESERT PLAIN (inner plane of consciousness) WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME. There seemed to be mystic reformers singing and shining their light to all who would listen. And as peace and harmony reined the ever present divine love materialized in the form of a "young lady" named MADELINE; she helped the children and the animals by teaching them that in any realm, dimension or lifetime and under any circumstance that everyone always has everything they need deep inside of themselves and that OZ NEVER GAVE ANYTHING TO THE TIN MAN THAT HE DIDN'T ALREADY HAVE, and finally that we all have the power to return "HOME" (SELF-REALIZATION) at any time.
The wall had a DOORWAY, or GATE TO ALL WONDERS that few find. I left my companion behind and passed through the GATE, on the other side was a radiant DIVINE BEING this being had THE FACE OF EVERYONE WHO EVER EXISTED and its HEART WAS ALL OF HUMANITY. It seemed that this DIVINE BEING of no being was expecting me, and asked why I took the long way home? I suddenly realized that in any time and at any place in life that all I had to do was to stop thinking of my self as selfiam. That all I had to do was to get rid of the self in selfiam and all that would be left is I AM and then came the REVELATION that inside I've always been I AM and that the inner I AM is the same I AM as the radiant divine universal I AM, the I AM that I AM, THE SELF OF EVERY SELF.
