Philosophers have dialoged on consciousness since ancient times, from Hermes Trismegistus, Socrates, and Plato to Blavatsky, Bailey, Gandhi, and Watts, just to name a few. Most of these philosophers’ works were designed to teach us that we are not a body with a soul; rather we are the Soul, with a body; we are consciousness.

Simply put, consciousness is a radiatory effect of life and all life radiates consciousness. An atom, rock, dolphin, human or cosmic master, all are manifestations of consciousness; the difference being just a matter of the degree of consciousness that manifests within.

Group Consciousness Tom Carney says “Consciousness operates concentrically; it radiates from the center outward. This may seem a minor point, but it bears directly on the essence of group-consciousness. As one’s consciousness expands into the frequency of group sensitivity, several things happen. One of the most profound and seldom realized, is that multidimensional reality is gradually revealed. One’s sense of self expands from its ancient focus on the dense physical plane to an awareness of connectivity, through other dimensions. When Bill Clinton said, ‘I feel your pain,’ he was revealing the fact that he was connected to others. We have been feeling each other’s pain, passion, fear, loving kindness, indifference, you name it, for eons. Yet because of the intense identification with our own dense physical body, we did not realize what this feeling was telling us. It was saying as clearly as possible, ‘I am not separate from that; in fact, I am that.’ Our Sister-Brother’s Keeper Because consciousness expands through encompassing successive circles of new understanding, it does not lose its sense of individuality. Consequently, the expansion of consciousness eventually leads to an overwhelming realization that one is, after all, one’s sister/brother and therefore, one’s sister/brother’s keeper. This realization is the evidence of the success of evolution, of the unfolding Plan. It is evidence of brain-conscious awareness of our immortal self, our non-dense physical, spiritual consciousness. This is the Soul, our true self, operating in full brain–awareness or consciousness within the daily dense physical plane life of the individual. The denial in which we have been living is the denial of our true, immortal spirit. This realization immediately opens all other dimensions of reality. Everything we do, every feeling we have, every thought we think, impacts all of humanity. Also, through the way we live, the institutions we generate, the things we build and destroy, we impact all of the rest of all of the Kingdoms of Nature, including what we call the mineral kingdom, the very stuff out of which the planet is formed. Global warming, for example, is a direct result of how humanity feels and thinks.”

What Is Transformation?

by Maryann Miller

Transformation is a metamorphosis from one state or condition into another. It is the result of a process that produces great change, resulting in something new and nobler than before. Through the metamorphic process, major changes in the frequencies of our very being occur. These shifts produce a progression of consciousness into higher and higher frequencies along the continuum of consciousness.

The process of transformation begins with self. Modern physics is finding that both the material world and consciousness are parts of a single unbroken totality of energy. At quantum levels, there exist frequencies of energy far beyond our normal everyday reality. Physicists call this the quantum potential. At this quantum level, the totality of existence is enfolded within each fragment of space and time. Thus everything in the universe affects everything else because all are part of the same dynamic web of energy, a web characterized by profound order and purposefulness.

We Are Connected

One ingredient in the process of transformation is recognizing our interconnectedness with all life. Once we understand this truth at all levels of our being, we realize that as we nurture others, and all of the kingdoms in nature, i.e., the mineral, plant, and animal kingdoms, so too do we nurture our very selves. When we perceive all things as aspects of one whole, an inner shift in consciousness occurs, producing:

• The ability to be sensitive to, or in tune with, subtle frequencies of energy or consciousness.
• The ability to participate in a dialogue of shared meaning that leads to aligned actions. In this type of dialogue, the goal is to create a special environment in which a different kind of relationship among the parts can come into play – one that reveals both higher intelligence and consciousness.
• Development of trust and intimacy.
• The willingness to set purely self interests aside in order to work toward cooperation and the greater good.

Universal Conscious is a kind of living organism that is much more than the sum of all its parts. It is a radiation of Light through which the consciousness of many individuals moves to unfold a higher plan for themselves, humanity and our planet. As more and more individuals and groups consciously align with Universal Consciousness, the resulting effect will be a global transformation of consciousness that will affect every man, woman, and child.

Life Stages of the Butterfly

The life stages of the butterfly explain the power of collective consciousness, which is part of the frequency of Universal Consciousness, in a most profound way. For those of you who may not be aware of this particular symbology, I include it here. Norie Huddle wrote about this symbology in her book, Butterfly, which was published in 1990.

At a particular point in a caterpillar’s development, a new type of cell begins to form; these cells are called imaginal cells. Imaginal cells have a different vibratory frequency than the caterpillar’s present cells, and because they multiply at a very rapid rate they are soon looked upon by the caterpillar’s immune system as enemies, so the caterpillar’s immune system begins to destroy these newly developing imaginal cells. The imaginal cells, however, just continue to multiply at such a rapid rate that, even though many of them are destroyed, a great many survive. The thing they have in common with one another is their vibratory frequency and because they are of the same frequency, they resonate with one another and so they begin to cluster together in groups. And because they are the same frequency, they can pass critical information back and forth to one another, which eventually helps prepare them for their next step or stage.

As time passes, another amazing thing begins to happen; the clusters of imaginal cells begin to form larger strings of clusters. These strings of clusters continue to pass information back and forth from one cluster and string to the other and then one day a most amazing thing happens, a transformation occurs. Something new, different, and incomparable emerges that is much more than the sum of all of the little individual imaginal cells, or even their clusters. A magnificent, marvelously beautiful butterfly is born and the caterpillar’s world is changed forever!

The exquisite butterfly continues to carry within it, each individual imaginal cell and each cell, encouraged by the other cells, carries out the responsibilities it is drawn to conduct. Each imaginal cell works within the imaginal community in a willing, joyful, creative way, and in so doing the new life form of the beautiful butterfly is supported, nourished, and sustained.

Experience of Universal Consciousness on a Personal Level

• On a personal level, the experience of Universal Consciousness brings:
• some of these bullets are hidden under the graphic
• a sense of wholeness – a sense of connection, balance and integration – an experience of unity and deep trust,
• a recognition that each of us is an important part of a greater whole
• compassionate and loving wisdom,
• profound tolerance, and a desire for inclusiveness,
• a reorientation of self-interest and a realization of deep personal fulfillment that comes out of service to others
• integrity and authenticity, an understanding of the bigger picture and a deep sense of purpose and meaning to life.
• Our charge, humanity’s charge, is to attune our conscious mind with the higher frequencies of Universal Consciousness. The more powerful our conscious connection with one another at these higher frequencies, the greater can be the spiritual transformative power of energies released, thus producing greater shifts in consciousness on a global scale.

Attunement with Universal Consciousness

Attunement with Universal Consciousness brings:

• Heightened intuition, enabling us to access extraordinary wisdom.
• Synergy: we are able to draw to us that which is needed, bringing with it greater confidence.
• Synchronicity: we are able to accomplish outcomes that are vastly more than the sum of each of the individual parts.
• The means of accomplishing the seemingly impossible.
