Child Energy.
Children are the blank slate upon which a future can be written that may manifest in a million different ways. They show up in our life of worldly weariness from the stars. To explain the conception, gestation, and birth process of a human being by using scientific data, is similar to answering of the question of in what is our Universe contained by using scientific data.
Certainly, in order to function day to day, it is necessary for us to block out much of what is more real than the physical. And yet, the baby from the mystic nothingness appears in a sometimes tawdry and nearly always preoccupied setting.
Surely everyone who thinks back to their earliest years will remember an enigmatical comprehension not of this world. One may say this is because a child has no experience. Education hasn’t been bestowed by the elders as yet. The serious business of participation in matters of cultural and societal importance hasn’t been completed.
Yet, many people will remember something they can cling to throughout their life. Similar to a life preserver in too-deep water, this memory may provide the character that allows one person to rise above adversity, and another to submit to prosaic insensitivity.
Oddly, a remembrance comes to mind of a most early discovery, or perhaps a repetition of habit pattern, not of the commonplace. A discouragingly small number of people understand this phenomenon. As a very young child, I developed a relaxing exercise that, after growing older and becoming more informed, I understood was meditation.
I would quiet myself and stop thinking. Most unusual for a small child, but the result was that which many who meditate experience. The basics of quantum physics are described by the religious community of ancient Buddhism. This understanding seems to be a result of meditating.
Neither religion nor science was of a child’s concern. Yet, the exercise produced the euphoric joy for which meditation is worth the trouble. In this state, as a young child, I would experience what can only be described as “the big and small” feeling at the same time.
Asking my seriously unimaginative mother what this was, as most little children will do, the response from my preoccupied Mom was the typical “Don’t be foolish”.
Over years and my own immersion into cultural nonsense, this knowing has been the foothold needed to allow for survival on a psychic level. Existence in this physical reality could have been different if the mystery remembered from another plane was acceptable.
Adults have a deeply serious job of bringing a baby through childhood and training them to become responsible and contributing human beings. The care-givers themselves are dealing with pressure that is serious and unrelated to the meaningful matters of existence.
Could a better respect for matters of the mystic, which is of the psyche, allow the space in a family and in a culture, to learn from the wonder of children at the same time we nurture and train them in the ways of society?
We cannot believe that we know everything that is of importance of life. Too many people and families are in too deep anxiety for this to be true.
Children may have much to teach, if we could listen. I can’t believe the majority of people wouldn’t remember their truth from before life, and this is a reference to the psychic as compared to a reference on reincarnation, if they could relax and consider.
A trip back through one’s lifetime through peaceful remembering may take one to a more innocent presence of personality. This can be called meditation, if we must label the process.
A personally-developed exercise is to start in the present year at age attained. More than thinking of yourself, feel your reality and what is happening at this time. This may be for several seconds or minutes; this is your remembering. Do as you please.
Drop back to the previous year, and then the next, and do the same for each year from the current through your childhood, then gently before birth. At this point, you will probably be floating in nothingness. It seems most people don’t remember their birth or the time before, myself included.
If you can float back this far, you will have gotten the idea. You will have created a picture of your life that will fascinate. You’ll uncover the complexity of your personality and the reason for this. The fascination of uncovering the little person who had first appeared out of the nothingness is worth the trip.
Can’t take time out of your work-a-day world to do this? That’s the point. And if it is so difficult for an adult, what must it be for a child?
