Oneness and Transformation

by Rasha - excerpted from her book, "Oneness"

Many who read these words will feel a reluctance to step into uncharted territory, when the
reality of what is transpiring becomes obvious. And after all the work has been done and the
destination is in view, it is easy suddenly to question all of it. For it is one thing to have
intellectually grasped the concepts that have been presented and to have gone through the
motions of putting them into practice. It is quite another thing to begin to embody the heightened
energies and to experience the quickening that accompanies it.

The new sensations of heightened vibration can be alarming, at first, if one is unprepared to
anticipate the feelings that accompany the advanced stages of the transformation process. As the
interdimensional threshold is approached, one can expect to experience an otherworldly sense of
detachment from the mundane aspects of one's life script. And at the same time, a sense of deep
contentment that is not cause related permeates one's consciousness.

.......For the pages are turning so quickly at this stage of your journey, that outcomes will not actually be experienced in the way one might anticipate them under normal conditions.

The states of heightened contradiction-between your heartfelt connectedness with the
momentum that propels you and at the same time the irritants that you continue to manifest-can
be confusing, when caught in the heat of the moment. Yet as you distance yourself from these
petty dramas, you can feel a palpable lightening of all that held you in its grasp. The release is
sudden and dramatic. And, seemingly for no reason at all, you shift into a different octave of
beingness. And you know, without having to be told, that something very significant indeed has
happened.

You will experience sensations of accelerated energy.
And you will experience the sense of
being present in two realities simultaneously.

This is, in fact, exactly what will have happened. For before you make the shift-physically-at the
interdimensional threshold, your subtle bodies will have preceded you. Your energies will be fully 
present in the higher dimension, and at the same time, you will have retained your conscious
awareness in this "here and now." The process of merging your energies with the higher octave
of your beingness is a gradual one. And as your subtle bodies are assimilated into the energy field
of that higher dimensional aspect of you, you can begin to sense the presence of that heightened
perspective here-as you.

Prior to having made this dramatic vibrational shift, you will experience a sense of coming to
completion with the interwoven themes that have characterized this lifetime.

Whether or not you notice the otherworldly sensations that mark the heightened stages of
transformation, there will be no doubt that a deep sense of inner awakening has at last begun. 

You are birthing the one who personifies the culmination of that entire body of experience. And
that one recognizes the comfort and familiarity of the Divine essence you hold within. There is
nothing foreign or otherworldly about experiencing your connectedness with God. For it is none
other than your very own Divine essence, ever-present within you, that reaches out in that
embrace. It is not something that suddenly enters. It is something that has never left.

You will wish to spend extended periods of your time in blessed isolation now. And you will
find yourself withdrawing your energies and your presence from virtually everything that once
held your attention. Now you feel great indifference toward what is transpiring politically, and
what is transpiring socially in a world in which you once counted yourself as fully present. From
where you now stand, all of it appears irrelevant.

You are not being asked to pay the supreme price of the relinquishing of your physical body in
exchange for the lessons learned, as are some in other corners of your world. The price many
of you have agreed to pay is far dearer than that. For you have dared to weather the virtual
annihilation of an entire state of beingness that has kept you imprisoned in self-defeating patterns for lifetimes. The ravages of such an experience cannot be underestimated. And,
depending upon just how invested some of you were in maintaining the stance in question, that
is the extent to which the energies of change have come to bear upon you.

You entered into these agreements knowingly-fully aware of the trauma that would result when
the time was at hand. But you were also fully aware of the possibility of transcendence that
might be realized from having weathered those levels of upheaval. And you exercised your
power of choice. And you prayed from the depths of your very soul, to be permitted to go
through exactly what you're going through, for the chance that you might, at long last, be free
of what has been your life pattern and taste what is truly there within you.[/b]

The prophecies for these times of transformation are not something to be feared. They are
possibilities to be embraced by those of you who are fortunate enough to be touched by the
sacred energies that deliver them. They are the monumental turning-points you yearn for as a
soul. They are the gift of deliverance. 

The so-called "End Times" to which the attention of so many is now drawn is not an ending in
the physical sense, so much as a transcendence of the limitations posed by linear perspective.
The endings that may well transpire in the physical lives of many are not the objective of the
events that may precipitate them. Rather, these endings are the doorway to another level of
experience, whether or not in physical form.

What is being brought to completion in this "here and now" are the intense patterns of karmic
compensation that were enforced vibrationally in a system that was ongoing and essentially
inescapable. By altering the vibrational basis through which that aspect of reality has
perpetuated itself, beings are once more being given the possibility to exercise their free will
and to live their lives fully in the Now moment.

Know that in these times of transformation, all things are possible. The script is being drafted
anew, based on your willingness to embrace the layers of change that are erupting within each of
you. Life in this tumultuous period of "history" is defined by the degree to which each is able to
detach from the need to try to control the process. Clinging to the safety nets of the past places
an energetic death grip on your ability to float through the turbulent patches and harness the
powerful currents that have come to carry you through.

The higher dimensional realities through which you now progress will provide a broad
spectrum lens through which you will be able to focus your own unique perspective. What you
perceive will be your own vantage point, with the coloration of a more universal outlook. You
will instinctively view the world and your role within it from a place that sees All of it as you
would see yourself. The qualities of compassion will have been stimulated to the surface of your
awareness. And you will be able to feel deeply the sense of standing in the shoes of another.
For you will perceive that other as your very own Self.

Your ascension into the range of realities where you know yourself to be One with all else you
encounter, marks the turning point in your evolution as a pinpoint of consciousness with Self
perception. For, from this point forth, the thrust of your efforts will not be focused in erasing
the vibrational residue of past action. Rather, you will embody the
experiential reinforcement of your knowingness of the interconnectedness
of All Life, in the ongoing Now moment.

*** YOU HOLD THE PROMISE OF THE FUTURE WITHIN YOU
*** COMING FULL CIRCLE
*** THE WATERLINE OF YOUR LIFE
*** YOU ARE NOT WHO YOU WERE LAST WEEK
*** A COSMIC REMINDER

Time after time, existence after existence, you have been birthed, you have died, and you have been birthed again.  In this lifetime alone you have birthed and died a hundred times already and there will be a thousand more to come.  Level by level, week by week – you birth another level of you, another nuance that is not known and has not been seen, another possibility, another perception, another day.  And every night as you slumber, you have the option to let go of what has hurt you, of what has wounded you, what has lessened your light, what has lessened your heart, and fly to the stars and dance in the heavens, and be birthed anew on the sunrise.

Humans are the only species in this part of the galaxy that have the ability to die a hundred deaths and be born a hundred times in a small existence. You are re-incarnation-al aspects of the original you, of your original being from this human birth.  It seems as if weeks are years and years are weeks, and days are long and nights are short, and the sun shines brighter and the waters run bluer.  All of this is because you perceive it as so.

For what you seek, you shall find and what you yearn for you shall become, and what is unknown shall be known.  For wide is the path that you have sculpted for yourself.  Lift up your being on this day as you see above the conflict from a viewpoint high on the cliff of divinity.
 
Many in your world support you not.  They heed not your words.  They heed not your intuition, your perception, and your prophecy.  They go slower and slower each day in their pace as they move forth to the apex of their life.  Many of them think that the very apex of their being is their death.  And when they get to the top of that pyramid of self – that is all, and the curtains are shut.  But know dear ones that the apex brings you into another level of your being.  Stand as a babe on there first day of walking with your arms out stretched saying, to all of creation “Take me, Lead me, Show me, Walk with me.”  And it shall be. 

For you hold the promise of the future within you.  You hold the hope of all those who sleep in fear and confusion.  You hold the promise within your cellular structure – the promise that this world would not be destroyed again, the promise that the Christed one would come back, the promise that the Masters of Light and your stellar parentage would one day would look at you eye to eye.  The promise that there is nothing on earth that does not love you, it only does not love itself.

The darkness raises its head like a sleepy dragon trying to bait you into becoming fearful, filled with anxiety as an asteroid passes, as another Hitler is born, as a demon surfaces, as a boat sinks, as a city falls apart.  And you must believe dear ones that all is well.  You must hold that promise within you no matter how you see your world crumble.  For it is that very vibration of Hope that you hold that will lift you just a few inches above the mass consciousness in order to see the truth of the new day, the new order, and the new light that is being birthed.

We had finally come full circle and embraced the wholeness of our being; the good, the bad, and the unknown.  We had finally embraced the past, the present, and whatever may come.  We had finally learned how to let go and love internally and completely.

You are asked to increase your belief factor in yourself and all of your abilities. You are asked to redesign yourself in a collage of life imitating art.  You are asked to step up to the plate and upon what is needed to be done, let it fuel your life force. Instead of allowing life and her daily deeds to suck all of your energy allow it to give to you increased energy from all circumstances that surround you.  Stop whining about what has be-fallen you and see it as a heavenly helping hand, a piece of the soul puzzle you seek to fit the picture in your heart.

Coming into oneness is not a journey for those weak of heart or weak of intent.  It is a journey for those who are brave those who are warriors and warrioresses.  It is a journey for those who can scale the mountains of self, the mountains of emotion, and the mountains of the past.  Using them as stepping stones as the heavenly realms proceed upon earth.

You stand at a place where the sand and the waterline meet.  You have not yet ventured into the deeper waters of life and light, nor into the ocean of all that is yet to come.  You but stand on the seashores of yourself, preparing for invisible storms. you are walking into an ocean of pure possibilities – of virginal energies that have never touched the earth before. They come as an unexpected high tide. Day after day, layer after layer, you and mother earth are imbued and embedded with these cleansing energies that are being received by your human body and light.

Allow your humanness to shine in all its mortalness and mightiness.  If you were to separate your human body, your light body or your soul, and your mind (brain) – you would see that each is as a different star shining, radiating a different light.  As the planetary lineup is seen in the early morn, it will become as a mirror reflection to you. When all of the planets and stars lineup – the light becomes more brilliant.  The light becomes amplified and magnified.  Each aspect of the trinity of livingness that you are can then shine as brilliant stars and show their true essence.   Align with the stars within you, with the galaxies that you represent that you remember, that you hold, and that you are becoming.

You are being re-sculpted into something new more enhanced than you ever thought possible.  The new energies are in every part of you. All of you are being birthed into a higher consciousness, this is the first glimmer of all the light to come.  You are only a few inches into this new portal of expansion.  In the next 5 years – you will be accessing encoded places inside of yourself that hold the secrets of the universe. Never ever in your human countenance have you entertained such possibilities. 
These encodings are your prime property.  They are the treasures that you so seek – the treasures that you innately know are yours.  Every hair of you has changed and now holds a higher light.  Every aspect of you goes forward at a quicker pace.  Even the energy known as the self– has been unleashed and it now moves forward out of the condensation of the past.

As what you once deemed important in your human life changes.  Your abilities, your divine encodings are being amplified. Thoughts will be projected, desires, and truths will be issued without a physical word coming from you.  You will find more a deeper connection with nature, and the earth.  The people that once pushed your buttons, and painted you into emotional corners will find that you no longer re-act to outside external stimuli.  There will be no need to retaliate to pay back.  Now when they push you into corners you just enjoy the corner for a minute. You will be far more concerned with expanding your divine energy than acting and re-acting to anyone.

You are not who you were last week.  You can not go back and visit that person even on good behavior.  There is no going back to what was.  You are part of an energy that exists no where else in time and space as you know it.  You are one of a kind.  The humanness that you enter into is a genetic duplication of the Creator frequency.  The physical body that you as souls incarnate into is holding the God Codes.  Your soul is already constructed of such high frequencies.  You have no need to worry about accessing them – YOU ARE THEM!

When a group of you come together in prayers, intent and in truth – then all of you for one tiny slice of time – walk through the same hologram. That in itself  is a miracle made manifest.  As you hold that hologram for specific intended time in workshops, in prayers, in gatherings – the stronger and the longer you hold it—the more ripples and wave effects happen.  When you first have a thought – that thought is a WAVE.  When that thought is manifested on earth – that thought becomes a PARTICLE.  First you gather as a wave and then you solidify that thought, that thinking, that awareness as a particle. It is then birthed and issued as a truth rippling out through all space and time.

For it is one thing to have intellectually grasped the concepts that have been presented and to have gone through the motions of putting them into practice. It is quite another thing to begin to embody the heightened energies and to experience the quickening that accompanies it.

"We are like caterpillars, contemplating pupation. No longer will I chew on the cabbage leaves, no longer will I spend my time moving around on the underside of the foliage. Life must be a preparation for the transition to another dimension..."

It seems to me that one of the most basic human experiences, one that is genuinely universal and unites – or, more precisely, could unite – all of humanity, is the experience of transcendence in the broadest sense of the word.
–Václav Havel, President, Czech Republic

However, although serious and critical, the situation might not be as hopeless as it appears. After more than half a century of intensive study of holotropic states of consciousness, I have come to the conclusion that the theoretical concepts and practical approaches developed by transpersonal psychology, a discipline that is trying to integrate spirituality with the new paradigm emerging in Western science, could help alleviate the crisis we are all facing. [highlight]These observations suggest that radical psychospiritual transformation of humanity is not only possible, but is already underway.[/highlight]

In the following text, I will try to outline such a vision on the basis of my observations made in years of research of holotropic states of consciousness. It is not a construct or result of speculation, but a worldview and life strategy that emerges spontaneously in individuals who, in the process of freeing themselves from the imprints imposed on them by the trauma of their birth and their early life, have had profound transpersonal experiences. Deep experiential work of this kind generates what we can call “spiritual intelligence.”

It is not difficult to understand that an important prerequisite for successful existence is general intelligence – the ability to learn and recall, think and reason, and adequately respond to our material environment. More recent research has emphasized the importance of “emotional intelligence,” the capacity to adequately respond to our human environment and skillfully handle our interpersonal relationships (Goleman 1996). Observations from the study of holotropic states confirm the basic tenet of perennial philosophy that the quality of our life ultimately depends on what can be called “spiritual intelligence.” Spiritual intelligence is the capacity to conduct our life in such a way that it reflects deep philosophical and metaphysical understanding of reality and of ourselves. Buddhist scriptures refer to this kind of spiritual wisdom as “prajñ para mit.” Unlike the dogmas of organized churches, spiritual intelligence acquired in the process of experiential self-exploration has the power to override the scientistic worldview of materialistic science. At the same time, it is equally effective as a remedy that can counteract the useless dogmas of organized religions.

What had begun as psychological probing of the unconscious psyche conducted for therapeutic purposes automatically became a philosophical quest for the meaning of life and a journey of spiritual discovery. People who connected to the transpersonal domain of their psyche tended to develop a new appreciation for existence and reverence for all life. One of the most striking consequences of various forms of transpersonal experiences was spontaneous emergence and development of deep humanitarian and ecological concerns and need to get involved in service for some common purpose. This was based on an almost cellular awareness that the boundaries in the universe are arbitrary and that each of us is identical with the entire web of existence.

A New Vision of Reality and a New Myth to Live By

The image of the universe at large underlying the new vision is based on philosophical implications of quantum-relativistic physics and the anthropic principle. It acknowledges consciousness as a fundamental aspect of existence, equal or possibly supraordinated to matter, rather than its accidental product, an epiphenomenon of matter. It sees the universe as a product of superior creative intelligence and permeated with it (“anima mundi”). Instead of the Newtonian supermachine consisting of separate building blocks (elementary particles and objects) it portrays the universe as a unified field, an organic whole in which everything is meaningfully interconnected.

New biology recognizes that evolution of species was guided by creative intelligence and that synergy and cooperation between species was at least as important a guiding principle as Darwin’s “survival of the fittest.” The biosphere and its inhabitants cannot be understood when we take into consideration only materials that constitute them without explaining where order, forms, meaningful relations, and esthetic aspects of creation come from. Concepts similar to Sheldrake’s morphic resonance and morphogenetic fields are critical for understanding the function of DNA and the genetic code, as well as the relationship between consciousness, memory, and the brain (see Sheldrake’s New Science of Life). Holographic thinking pioneered by David Bohm and Karl Pribram threw new light on the relationship between the part and the whole

The Nature of Reality: Psyche, Cosmos, and Consciousness

The necessary revisions discussed up to this point were related to the theory and practice of psychiatry, psychology, and psychotherapy. However, the work with holotropic states brings challenges of a much more fundamental nature. Many of the experiences and observations that occur during this work are so extraordinary that they cannot be understood in the context of the monistic materialistic approach to reality. Their conceptual impact is so far-reaching that it undermines the most basic metaphysical assumptions of Western science, particularly those regarding the nature of consciousness and its relationship to matter.

Terence McKenna put it very succinctly: "The history of the silly monkey is over, one way or another" (McKenna 1992).
