I tend to think that the fourth dimension is associated with the capacity to hold the history of our own personal world, from the beginning to the end of this universal cycle, in the present moment. When we wake up in the 4th dimension, we are still present in the lower 3rd dimensions (we are still human beings travelling along the time axis), but at the same time we can see the whole process laid out before us in timelessness, as a "picture", a tapestry of interwoven event threads. The tapestry we "see" is a mental analogue, a mirror of the process that happens in time, and it is witnessed from a "point" which is outside time, perceived at once, without jumping back and forth along the time axis.

Embracing and using this new faculty lets man remember the past and consider the future without leaving the present moment. Energy is not wasted anymore on dwelling on the past/future, we can live in the here and now with 100% presence (which makes the present moment much more colorful, lively and detailed). As the 4D self takes care of the panoramic overview, the 3D self doesn't have to force the 3D mind to do stuff which it was not designed for, and this brings considerable relief. The whole way of perceiving and handling existence becomes much more optimized. It's like finally finding an adequate and down-to-the-guts satisfying solution for a problem which we tried to solve thousands of times before but always failed (and this failure irritated us beyond belief because we knew from the depths that there IS a solution). We did not realize that the reason we could not solve the problem was that we were trying to solve it with a tool (in this case the rational mind) which was not designed for this job.

From being awaken in the fourth dimension comes the idea that our stay in this world is some kind of a learning process. We see the past and the future, we see our karma, we see how our decisions influence the world, we see the interconnectedness of all. From this understanding comes the view that we have responsibility for ourselves, and the decision that the only thing worth doing is to embrace and assist the evolution of the world.

But the fifth dimension is something which goes even beyond this. For me, becoming awaken in the fifth dimension starts with the experience of the present moment gaining a certain "depth". It's as if man would find a kind of Singularity, a hidden zero-door, orthogonal to the 4D world, in the core of the present moment. I mentioned before that the 4D awakening makes it possible for man to concentrate the energies into the present moment (they are not wasted any more on the past/future). With the power of this concentration the mind starts to "dig" into the present moment and as it's digging deeper and deeper, the sense of a certain internal structure of the present moment starts to dawn on the human consciousness.

This is all happening parallel to the living in 3rd dimension. It's like a microscope's zoom being turned up and up, which lets man see more and more details of the environment of the present moment. (There are good mathematical analogues here, like theory of limits and such, but I don't know the English vocabulary.) The closer we get to this "vertical" axis, the higher the zoom, the richer and more profound the internal landscape becomes.

The ancient saying "as above, so below" is totally understood when this process comes to its end. Then we realize that the structure of our present moment actually contains everything what we are. Furthermore, it contains and explains the whole world. Macrocosm = microcosm becomes evident.

And when we find that everything is contained in the Here and Now, that God has actually never lost us, that we don't have to travel anywhere else to gain more knowledge because just by contemplating the present we can have any knowledge we ever wanted, when we rediscover this connection with the Source which satisfies our soul in such a great way that all doubts are diminished, that's when we become enlightened beings.

When we regain this direct connection, suffering ends forever. Because we have direct connection, a lot of questions that were important before just simply become irrelevant. They are not answered, they are dissolved because we perceive clearly how our need for an answer to a certain question was intimately connected to our longing to God. Longing to God gave the question its life. If this longing is satisfied, the question is not relevant any more (at least for us).

This is very similar to how the fourth dimension awakening makes life less complicated, but in this case it happens on a much higher, all-encompassing scale. If we have a direct connection to God in every moment of our life, if we experience our moment as our entire life, then we become free of every desire, we become fulfilled permanently, so nothing in the world can ever pull us back again into unconsciousness.

With this wisdom, life is perceived as Lila, a play in the hands of God. Good and Evil become players in the drama. This perception of the world is not a fake one because in this state all the theories of the world, about Good and Evil, about the "one correct way" to lead one's life, about the "one proper attitude", etc. are perceived as what they are: theories that people make up in order to solve the basic human problem which has its root in our longing for God and in our fear of being left alone. (Behind all the veils of the human drama, we are all just crying children left alone in the darkness.) These theories are inadequate because they lead us further away from the present moment, they force us to think in past/future terms, to get into arguments, etc. and this makes the consciousness bound again instead of liberating it. When you have the direct connection, all the theories become unnecessary (although you can still think about them if you wish so) and life becomes self-governing, without any necessity of externally imposed rules.

Why would you believe in anything when there is no need to believe in anything? Why would you believe in any religion, in any faith if you have everything at your hands? That's why with the awakening in the fifth dimension life can really become a game. The Heavens have been Earthed by you, through you. You became the Game itself. There are no dualities anymore (only in 4D, but even there they become free of the associated baggage that made them a nightmare before). It is a game played by God through its selves, where God's constant enjoyment comes from the selves' direct perception and associated feelings, emotions, thoughts, wonder about the myriad ways of how God's creative mind is constantly expanding the boundaries of existence in every moment through the device of human evolution. That's why God wants us to wake up. To evolve the selves to a level of enlightenment, when they can perceive the wonders of creation. And through the selves, God enjoys itself enormously. (That's how we become hidden lovers of God.)

Great respect to the ole' story-teller, the Wizard of the Core.

Excellent comments, cellux. Many great articulations of points near and dear to my own ontology. The apes are racing towards heaven to reclaim the throne!

This all sounds familiar to me, but every time ive heard it was while reading on eastern mysticsm. Im 19 years old and now i feel as if i should dedicate my life twords meditating, and im wondering if thats what you guys are trying to suggest?

Paul, you raise some interesting points about time and the body. It's sort of paradoxical though since the body itself is entirely bound to time, though seemingly unaware of its passing.

John Eccles suggests that the Self stitches together the moment-by-moment snapshots of the mind to create a filmreel of experience in time.

Corey, meditation is certainly a worthwhile pursuit, though I don't think any of us are saying we should all dedicate our lives to it. This is an individual choice. A life of meditation might be a very valid path for some, but not for others. It can be extremely rewarding but it can also be an escape. The most important thing for you, I believe, is to honestly examine your self and your actions, and the motivations behind them, and try to act with integrity and compassion.

sad it is that we think all dimensions have something to do with us and our preception..

Well, we're talking about human consciousness so, for us, all dimensions do have to do with our perception. Do they exist without our perception? Probably. Is there any way for us to prove to ourselves that something exists without observing it in some fashion? No. Everything we know about reality is gained through our perceptions. Therefore, our "reality" is a construct assembled by the mind based upon our perceptions. It might simply be a matter of design that all humans assemble more or less the same construct.

beautiful ... all of the comments here are like reading my personal experience say .... since NYE '2000 :) . I , as well have experienced this deepening of the moment ... presenting itself anew , but with an old familiarity that you cant quite put your finger on ... also , this kind of "sifting through" kind of effect this , sort of as if the self is , there are no words , ill leave it at that . I myself have noticed exactly what paul had said about paying attention to the strongest feeling and it transmuting into ecstasy as well ... i had imagined that what i was doing was turning emotion ( mental impressions from the past - stored in the body ) into consciousness .. and that this ectasy was what happens when memory is transmuted into present-moment awareness again, sort of like stretching after a long sleep feels good ... kind of like my own personal alchemy ... so this is great to read and see that this is REALLY HAPPENING haha . One more thing... id like to ask you guys ... have you also noticed that days go by like moments , that you have no experience of time anymore ... i find that a day will pass with the snap of a finger ...weeks the same way ...

p.s - has all this been the past ? is it ending? are we moving beyond experience ? is experience , the past ... ? what is it that I AM , then , if not experience itself ?

infinitribe, if you really must know, you are the observer of your physical body. The person that posted that comment wasn't you; you are the one that was aware of your mind thinking of writing it. You're the sentient being that "goes along for the ride". I remember reading it somewhere that "you are not the one who speaks your thoughts, you are the one who hears your thoughts". You may not be "experience", but you are the "experiencer".

Amazing, I never even knew that there was so much teaching going on in this subject. Some of the things mentioned in that email is exactly the way that I see it as being. Especially the part that says: being the experiencer does not depend on biology, not even your mind. Thanks Paul.

yes,Gregory, i understand that i am not my body and mind , but the "experiencer" of these things... that whole post-script that i wrote was not really me asking questions that i need an answer to ... if you look back there and read it again , i think youll find that all those questions lead you back to the same thing/non thing that you were trying to tell me i dont know about ... well duh!

Maybe you can reprogram your neuro network to anyway you want. If that's want you
want then meditation is OK ;)

Paul, thanks for the further insights into Vivation. Fascinating! The concept of the experiencer makes me think of Nisargaddata's "The Witness".

the concept of the experiencer ... lol . I love nisargadatta ... read his books ... concentrated on the formless I AM , the presence for only about 1 year , whenever i forgot and became involved in identification with my mind , i would bring my attention back to the presence again ... you at first will watch the sense of presence and then "you" will go unconscious , and your mind will seem to drift off to sleep , bring the attention back .. you can do it all day long and it doesnt interfere with your daily activities ... after a while , something funny happens , i cant begin to tell you what it is or put it into words , but when you see it , you will know what i am talking about , you begin to see it everywhere and always , formless , before experience ...the world will only exist if you care to pay attention to it ... but you will never identify with it again ... all the whys and what for's and questions and theories will only occupy your time if you want to entertain yourself , you will see the truth if you give this technique a try .Now , please dont take all this as me trying to say that i have attained "enlightenment" or that im trying to be a cyber-guru ... i am telling you the truth , i am happy now because of this technique , i have stopped looking ....and yet this site is just as interesting to me as when i needed answers ... if something makes me different at all its because i have seen one thing i DO NOT know ... and it has changed everything.

Vipassana meditation IS about fullness... but it is not stated explicitly. The English word "emptiness" is ambiguous in translating what Buddhists interpreted their goal as. To attain "Emptiness" in its literal translation is the wrong context. Buddhism is not trying to get rid of emotions, feelings, motivations, desires or even ambitions. It’s not about “emptying” yourself so you end up with a dead boring life. It is about realizing that those things have no deep & profound effects to affect you on a personal level negatively. Meditation is crucial to understand what Buddhism is trying to get across, because it is practicing non-reactive awareness – being an observer. So it really IS about looking at life with fullness...

..the key aspect to the 'countdown to transcending' has to do with using what becomes immediately available to any individual and what appeals strongest to that individual's strengths and weakness:

too often there exists a d0gmatic reaction from many 'fringe' groups to freeze the m0j0 as if to say: '..yes we know the end cometh but we are going to foil the end by creating enough technical jargonings and wankings to not see the end cometh...'

...an attitude that haunted (..and still does...) the o.t.o not just under crowley's reign but under minds that are not willing to open themselves to the immense possibilities that as a species - we are wired with the tools to self-destruct only to become renewed into the true alchemic formula that the universe can never lose:

as such -- being creations and co-creators and co-creations and creators: the only true 'original sin' would be to fall forgetful to the simple and effective truth that we are not alone in the universe as the universe continually penetrates whom we are pereptually with information and knowledge and hints and suggestions that continually enters and un-folds within all of us:

...however we must overcome that tendency to think along the lines of being 'outside' of events when we and such events were never ever separate nor separated sans our annoited mindsets to create constant barriers of distractions.....

i recall grant morrison's epic masterwork 'the invisibles' where future buddha dane 'jack frost' mcgowan was initiated into the great other when he found himself transported into a fighter jet instanteously by his mentor elfayad without prior training on flying let alone piloting a fighter plane ever before:

at that point for jack frost -- questions of enlightenment were not important but learning to focus and listening to the instructions of elfayad on flying and landing the fighter jet became the only enlightenment required for jack frost to know:

..and there lies the brillance to that particular scene in the invisibles: that when all has been postulated and calculated and theorised and d0gmatised and estimated: does one have the balls to do what they must do regardless of the seemingly impossible situation they might find themselves within at the moment...

to quote the truly beautiful and awe-inspiring martial artists and woman extraordinarie michelle yeoh (..of crouching tiger hidden dragon fame among other films of her brilliant career..) from a television interview i had watched a while back:

'...there's a difference between throwing a punch and knowing how to throw a punch.....'

we all know that the countdown has always been in full affect because the countdown to transcending was programmed into the completing mainframe of reality and the universe: then our truest responsibilities lies within doing the home work from within using all the tools available: given: sought: invoked: extracted: constructed: de-constructed: cut and pasted: attached and programmed: detached and re-programmed.....

..as gandhi himself once espoused: the mountain has one top but many paths to reach that singular point -- we are all approaching the end of this historical epoch and the paths to take remains countless and without any need to be counted nor labeled nor even 'confirmed' as being 'real' or an 'illusion' for we are the dreamer: we are the dream: we are the dream weaver: and we are the dream stealer.....

we are all and we are only one --- keep this well within mind and learn to walk the path that has been chosen by you.

.0sa, sorry I don't have time to comment fully but I just want to say: :)

it is such a relief to me to know that other people are thinking these thoughts. The question before us now seems to me a process of "bootstrapping," creating intermediary tools and technologies and institutions that help us attain and realize the supramental condition. I would be interested to hear from the author how they have experienced these ideas in embodied form, in their own life - what synchronicities, visions, etc, have guided them forward from what quotidian origins?

for me all of this is still just a dream.

flashbacks are coming from time to time which have a certain feel of certainty to them ("wow this feels much more REAL than everyday reality! this is TRUTH!"). but this is no proof just a feeling inside, an intuition.

another thing which gives hope is that the insights acquired during the process seem to touch areas of my mind which were not known to me before. new things seem to come up from hidden recesses of the mind. so the process can be thought of in terms of "waking up", but again, this might be a personal delusion or telepathic influence of group consciousness with biochemical reinforcement (I feel good when I think these thoughts therefore I tend to elaborate on them).

altogether, from my point of view, I can say that these insights had no practical consequences for me in everyday life. I still struggle as before, although the obstacles are different (as I develop personally, the obstacles are easier to identify as mirrors of myself).

having a firm grasp on everyday reality so that the insights gained can flow into matter and change it: this is the future. or it shall be.

what were we just talking about ? :)

Thanks to author for this blog, it was realy excite. Read my blog to.

Whant gambling? Online gambling at http://online-gambling-123.us is your way!!!

in regards to other dimensions.. please read and learn about string theory. in your research you will discover that extra-dimesions have been proven math... but have not been observed. it is again the view point of the primitive ego centric mind to think that all things have to do with us (humans) perhaps it is true we are merely primitive beings who eat sleep shit and die and that is it.. i perfer to think that we are simple creatures that simply live and die.. my ego wants me to think otherwise.. that i am more then what is between my hat and my boots. what is sigularity of 2012 , it is akin to psuedo-spiritulist like the folks who make this website as what evangalgelic christians are professing the book of revalations bringing the end times.. as we are so important in the grand scheme of the universe that somehow our conscienceness really makes a difference in the evolution of the universe. sad that we can live in the moment here and now and build on creating a world based on reason and hope for better of standing of the world as it is.. it is such a wonderful magical place. just look out your window and see the world and you breathing are as magic and perfect as it gets.. western and eastern thought likes us to think that there is more to this. it seems to me that alot of the energy spent by folks at this web site are trying to obsolve themselves of guilt of affulence( i might be wrong) but for chirsts sake do you think honestly that a child starving in a bed in africa dying of AIDS really is wondering " hmmm in 2012 the universe will blah blah blah blah blah.. " what is searching what is knowledge what is effort ? what is ? what is what is ? why do i care ? all of these questions should be asked before we can begin to think of the union of kali and shiva in cosmic unity dance. what is kali ?what is shiva ? what is cosmic ? why do i care ? and then question even the question.. I think ( and i am probally wrong) that once we begin to question we will see that what we attach to is really supersitution and primitive beliefs and that is really our weak minds wanting to attach to something out of fear of the unknown.. rather then investigate the unknown with create myths.. freaks like jung and campbell would like us to think that this is the highest point in human thought.. that this is how we are designed.. how sad that this modern philosphy still exists in our post postmodern world. WHEN WE WILL LEARN TO QUESTION ?

My universe is intimitely tied to my human experience of it. My ego is a fact of my life and I try to influence it to lead to an egoless state of witnessing creation. Why is pontificating about reality so much less valuable than simply watching the magick of it all? I do both and enjoy both equally. The singularity resides within human consciousness. It is not some apocalyptic evangelical fire and brimstone catstrophe that destroys the world sparing only the absolved. It is a milestone along the path of collective human consciousness, that's all. And no I don't have the myopia of affluence to suppose that a child dying of AIDS cares about the singularity. But is this then some reason that I shouldn't? Should all intellectual or spiritual endeavors be put on hold so we can all suffer together and you won't feel so shrugged by the weight existence? Just because some people feel guilty for indulging intelligence and psychology doesn't mean the rest of us have to give up trying to reimagine the future.

From your take postmodernism sounds terribly dull and devoid of meaning.
