Realizing and Manifesting the Real World

           Where have I been? My recent discovery that I am not only not experiences but not the experiencer either is not new. As I (Spirit) was emerging in the illusion but before the experiencer’s experience of existence shifted, I taught, and the experiencer practiced, “Don’t squash the human! Let her thoughts and feelings be, without judging them.” The “I” had already shifted from the experiencer to Spirit. I knew the experiencer (person, human) was in my awareness but was not me.

So, where did I go? Before the shift, the experiencer was 85% at peace but felt there was a “black box” in the corner of her mind yet to be undone. She understood this to be what stood in the way of the realization of Spirit (me) in her experience. My emergence in the illusion set the experiencer on a trajectory into and through this remaining denial of God to reach realization. It has been as though she had to start at the beginning with this remainder, and so at times I have been blocked again and the experiencer seems to have forgotten much she knew. Even, for a long, dark time, that God is Love! (See her memoir.)

There are three stages an experiencer goes through in relation to Truth. First, there’s the intellectual stage when you accept that Truth is true and would probably call this a belief. Second, is when you are aware that Truth is true. It is active in your life. This is when you might say, “I get this more than intellectually”, yet you realize you are not there yet. Finally, there is realization, when Truth is what you are and live, resulting in it manifesting as the real world.

In A Course in Miracles, in the stage called The Period of Settling, when you experience “reasonable peace”, it warns you may think you have come farther than you have. Awareness of the Truth in the false world should not be confused with the realization and manifestation of the real world, which is a whole other dimension and experience of existence. For most studying nondualistic teachings, realization is what they seek. (And realization is what those on non-nondualistic paths do not know is possible!)

Before realization, Spirit comes to the experiencer as Presence, Guide and Teacher, but does not come through the experiencer, resulting in the real world manifesting as a sense of abundance, love, security, peace, etc. and a material life that expresses these. So, the experiencer’s mind stands between Spirit and realization manifesting for the experiencer. For realization to manifest, the delusion of the experiencer’s autonomy (ego to some) must fall away from the experiencer’s mind as its false world blocks Spirit’s manifestation for the experiencer. This is a dramatic shift for the experiencer as he/she/they comes out of the delusion of his/her/their own autonomy and accepts union with Spirit. During this transition, the real world manifests imperfectly, as the experiencer leaves the false world behind and moves into the real world. However, the real world is the context in which the transition occurs as it is the inevitable outcome.

This experiencer has begun to have new, unexpected experiences of manifestation, increased synchronicity, intuition, and foreseeing and other experiences, mostly the result of Seeing. These are the real world slowly coming into view as the false one continues to fall away.
