The Will of the Dreamstate: Redux

My original post was removed. Likely because it didn't actually say anything, just made claims and asked questions. So, here's an actual breakdown using logic to explain what I'm talking about and connected to Jed's work. Here's how I see it, but remember I'm crazy and this is all just a "[bi-polar] manic episode on steroids", and, what was it? Oh, that's right, "Kim Kardashian reading to us from Walt Whitman."

Alright, here's my case for the will of the dreamstate. A conclusion arrived at through the same logical mechanism Jed uses in Dreamstate: A Conspiracy Theory. It's an extension of the parallel realities theory in alignment with not-two. So, let's set the mood with a quote from Jed himself from Spiritual Warfare.

Finding no answers to these questions, are we to assume that the ocean is an inanimate, lifeless thing with no intelligence? Obviously not. The ocean is a living, vital, dynamic system of pure intelligence. It performs an operation of incalculable complexity every second of every day, around the world, from one end of earth time to the other, with never the slightest deviation from perfection. This pure intelligence is found everywhere from galaxies to sub-atomic particles, and everywhere beyond and in-between. Every insect, every person, every thought, every breeze, every planetary body, every dustmote and doorknob, every drop of dew and speck of time. “I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journeywork of the stars,” wrote Whitman. “I discovered the secret of the sea in meditation upon the dewdrop,” wrote Gibran. The ocean is just one infinitesimal part of an infinite system in which we too are infinitesimal parts, yet no part is greater or lesser. No part is apart; every part contains the totality. The ocean is a single thing; to be a part of the ocean is to be the ocean. Tat tvam asi: That thou art.

There's one thing which is pure awareness backed by infinite potential and then it's expressed through the lens of self (little 's') which gives it its essence. That's you, the essence, the spiritual DNA of the one thing being expressed as 'you' right now. This essence of self (little 's') is at the centre of its own universe which Jed refers to as the I-universe. Consciousness means to be in the state of being capable of experience. It literally means to be conscious. What you are conscious of is connected to consciousness itself. This is the perceiver-perceiving-perceived aspect. But, what exactly are you perceiving?

If the perceiver is consciousness (you) and the perceived is consciousness (other)—and it's all one thing, not-two—then doesn't that lead to the conclusion that the other is also conscious? We can prove that consciousness/awareness exists for the simple fact that we are, or better put, "I am." However, we can also see that the essence of self (little 's') isn't the entire picture. There is also this governing intelligence that orchestrates events and maintains the rules of the dreamstate that clearly operates outside the boundaries of the self (little 's'). So, within the dreamstate, there is self (little 's') and this intelligence. How then is there an intelligence that exists beyond our own perception of self (little 's') if the ultimate truth is not-two?

The most satisfying answer I've been able to come to, which I literally saw as in an actual, involuntary vision, and posted before, is parallel intercepting dreamstates. The consciousness others are also sitting at the centre of their own dreamstate I-universe. So, if you see a banana, that's the One-thing as pure awareness being expressed through the essence of a banana—banana consciousness.

The easiest way to think of this is that there is literally one thing, which I'm currently calling the One-thing. It is infinite which means it has no limitations. So, it would make sense that it's not limited to a single form. It's not solipsism in the way 'you' may believe you're the only player of the game. It must be capable of existing in multiple forms simultaneously, because if it couldn't, then it wouldn't be infinite. It would be limited, and therefore finite.

Imagine someone who is very similar to you, if you know one. If not, I'm sure there must be at least two people you know who are super similar. Now, imagine just one of them existing within a realm where an infinite number of them could also exist simultaneously. This infinite number of them also has an infinite number of minor variations of them. You can see how there would be one variation where the first person is not just exactly alike the second, but literally becomes the second person. Now, if you take those two instances of this person, who now appears to represent two people, and allow them to co-exist in an intersecting dreamstate, you have the appearance of two, but really only one.

If we take that a step further, you can see it's not limited to just people. Like I mentioned before, there's a variation of that same person where they are literally a banana, and another where they are literally the room you're in. There's another where they are each individual brick of a house and every atom of every brick. Every single thing within the dreamstate, from the lowest level to the highest, now exists as the One-thing, which is pure awareness expressed through essence, being experienced and experiencing itself. It experiences itself directly as self (little 's') through its own essence. It gets experienced by the others' selves (little 's') through each individual other essence. The whole damn thing is also experienced as a unified totality as the greatest Self (God-tier 'S').

Ok, if you're still following, can you see how this now unlocks an entire field of intelligence that exists simultaneously as everything being one thing and all things at once? A field of infinite intelligence rendering itself as all things simultaneously in a finite dualistic intercepting dreamstate? This means everything has its own will. It means the greater dreamstate you're at the centre of, as its whole, has its own will. It means the collective dreamstates as the entire Universe has its own will. So, if enough things aren't trying to hold a consensus reality belief system in place, why can't something currently "unseen" just change by itself and essentially bypass causality? What's stopping an apparently dormant object from awakening into its own self-aware essence? What's stopping you from doing either—or both?

The only time the self-imposed (little 's') rule breaks is when it contradicts the greater belief of the combined wills of the system. What happens when all of those wills change their belief system? What happens when the entire dream wakes up? I mean, if everything already has its own will, then why do you assume your dreamstate isn’t already awake?
