Membership Gratitude Chat: February 2016

[DanielaS]

10Q - Feb 10, 2016

 

MEntity: Hello to each of you. We are here, now. We can begin.

 

MikeClev: Hello :) This question is about the topic of Generational Karma. Could you describe how being in this "Mature" Age affects that era? How will being in an "Old" Age be different? Thanks.

 

MEntity:
During an Age, it tends to be the case that all events funnel into the securing of that Age into the populace. During this Mature Age, it is a process of breaking down barriers, emotional rawness, intensity, expanding boundaries while also strengthening any that have been ignored.

 

It is about bringing about an awareness of collectivity, consensus, negotiation, compromise, and cooperation.

 

Events tend to force the idea that "we are in this together, whether we like it, or not."

 

This will be met with great resistance by those who prefer their own paths that do not account for the consequences upon others.

 

The Mature Age, then, tends to be marked by an escalating intensity that is emotional in nature and brings the population to a turning point that finds a way to soothe those in desperate fear for their individual paths while still gaining collective momentum of empowerment.

 

If this soothing of the younger souls is not addressed, then the turning point can be quite disastrous, but the turning point will come, regardless.

 

At some point during an Age, the turning point comes, either with resistance/pain or with surrender/pleasure.

 

The Old Age would be marked by a building upon or up from the turning point of the Mature Age and aim for how to implement collective responsibility and freedom.

 

It tends to be an Age where true anarchy is in effect to some degree that allows order to rise up from chaos.

 

If the momentum continues as we can see it, this will have been well under way with the advent of digital technology, virtual reality, and augmented reality, as "the world" shifts from geographical and national differentiations to a world organized by ideas and philosophies.

 

All boundaries and privacy issues will have long been resolved, and life will not be limited to locality.

 

The Internet is a precursor to the Old Age.

 

There will be those who rise and fight against this by claiming that the quality of life is reduced by emphasizing digital interaction, but this will be met by the Old Age in the same way one might feared that the telephone would remove the necessity for actual contact, or that the use of digital music somehow cannot carry the experience of an actual concert.

 

It will always be true that actual contact is important, but to expand beyond boundaries of geography and locality to form "nations" based in ideas and philosophies rather than territories is a natural progression.

 

We can continue elaborating, but we know there are other questions.

 

MikeClev: Thank you :)

 

Evelin: Hello, Michael! Michael, you told me: "If we were to put a number to what is knowable and what is known in terms of Astronomy and Space, on a scale of 1 to 100, Humans are at 2." On the same 1 to 100 scale, what would be the number of what is known to Humans about 1) our Solar system 2) (how) the Sun (works), 3) what influences Earth's tectonics?

 

MEntity: In terms of the Solar System, we would put the knowledge at 5. In terms of how the Sun works, we would put this at 6. In terms of Tectonics, we would put this at 10.

 

Evelin: Lovely... room for growth! Thank you.

 

MEntity: Very much so.

 

Colleen: Hi Michael. What was the motive for the murder of Robert F. Kennedy in 1968? Who was behind it?

 

MEntity:
This was fairly straight-forward and not as mysterious in motivation. This was motivated by a group who felt betrayed by America and this was their attempt to make a point, to send a message, to try to get across the anger and desperation that was unfolding in the politics and conflicts that were affecting them.

 

The fragment known to have committed the assassination was fairly forthright and open about his motivations, and we do not see these as scripted by force or by manipulation, other than in terms of how a group can bring influence when sharing in an emotion and pain.

 

Colleen: So Sirhan Sirhan was part of the conspiracy. He claims he has no memory of the event.

 

MEntity:
The group has long since disbanded or members dead, but that anger that fueled this group exists even into today.

 

This is not uncommon for those who are fueled by "crimes of passion," and this is included in that.

 

Colleen: Was he the only shooter?

 

MEntity: Once the buildup of intensity, anger, hatred, frustration, fear, etc. is released and has landed in some catastrophic way, the mind is suddenly with a void that was once filled with this singular objective.

 

AnnH: Wow.

 

MEntity:
That is then either experienced as loss of memory, or is retroactively filled with a narrative that is fantasy or shaped from input of others.

 

The fragment in question was not the only one. Three were moving in for the best opportunity. Depending on various parallels, each of these three or a combination caused the death.

 

AnnH: So this happened in a number of parallels?

 

MEntity:
More that it generated various parallels.

 

So, technically, yes.

 

AnnH: OK

 

Colleen: Thanks.

 

PeterK: I am considering the field of virtual reality as a possible career direction, particularly in combination with data visualization and mobile devices. What advances in virtual reality are humans likely to achieve over the next ten years?

 

MEntity:
If there is no collapse, this industry is set to exponentially grow beyond what is in the general imagination at this time.

 

Augmented and Virtual Reality is one of the "great solutions" that not only help to resolve the issues of resources and climate change, but also to herald a radical shift toward the Resource-based Economy.

 

In ten years, if the patterns remain as we can see them now, your hardware will move from external and clunky to integrated, wearable, and neurologically powered.

 

CLARIFICATION: this is not to say it will reach that state within the 10 years, but that it will be ever clearer that it is moving in that direction and feasible.

 

It is a viable career.

 

PeterK: Thank you very much.

 

AnnH: This is personal which I hope can be enlarged into general. The topic could be Dreaming of the Dead. I have often dreamed of my late Task Companion parents who died in 2000 and 2004. In the past few years, I have dreamed of them often as being separated/divorced and having no contact with each other. Very different than their recent incarnated relationship. Recently in dreams it seems my mother has rejected all of her just past family. How do I go about understanding and resolving the choices and changes that those who I’ve known in this life have made now that they are no longer incarnate? What is up with these dreams of the dead?

 

AnnH: Added: My dreaming self has been hurt by my mother's rejection. It's rather tedious.

 

MEntity:
In response to the first question: you are already working on that resolution, but the only missing element is your ACTIVE imagination. Currently, your passive imagination is playing out various scenarios, anxieties, fears, upturned memories, etc.

 

These are rising up because they may be speaking to old, forgotten, or fantasy wounds that you can heal or fix by using your active imagination.

 

Your active imagination requires you to correct your memories, to actively pull up clarification, or to actively replay the scenarios with different, preferred outcomes.

 

For example:

 

If you dream that your mother rejects you and this is painful, it may speak to when you actually did feel rejected, however subconscious or conscious that experience might have been, or it may speak to your grief of missing her but not having any way to truly hear from her to console you as you need mothering.

 

AnnH: Or both :)

 

MEntity:
This is your passive imagination helping to bring to the surface that which your active imagination can heal.

 

Using your active imagination is no less significant than your passive imagination.

 

Imagine her presence, her best moments of loving, your moments of joy, your memories of touch and kindness and understanding when she was not at her best, and/or own your current need for mothering by taking care of yourself with obvious nurturing and kindness instead of neglect or escape.

 

In short, you have control over the impact of experiences such as this by understanding that your passive imagination informs you, and your active imagination can help you.

 

AnnH: Yes, thank you.

 

MEntity: We must conclude here for today. We know this is a new format of exchange with you, and it brings with it potential for rather intimate exchanges with us. Good evening to each of you. Goodbye, for now.
