A Fortnight of Time
I often speak with my clients about horizontal, vertical, and circular (sacred) time. I am beginning this post within a fortnight of horizontal time from my previous birthday, which was on April 14. On that day I moved on from my 58th year to enter into another year of experience, practice, and evolution of being me; spirit grounding in body, using the tools of mind and emotions to enable the journey forward.
The vertical aspect of time, first described by quantum physicist Hugh Everitt III, in 1957, contains “choice points” of infinite possibilities of manifestation from the future. We attract and manifest from this field of infinite potential. I call this process the attraction and manifestation of a future memory.
We are accustomed to having our Now being informed by past memory, but the Now is also informed by future memory. Circular, or sacred time, as it is called by the shamans and mystics, is the consideration of the quantum hologram of time, the fractal infinity of Now; all time is happening at once.
You might also keep in mind an alternative, and etymologically accurate, meaning for the word “present.” We are used to considering the word “present” in terms of its relationship to Now, or, present time. We may also consider the word “present” by dividing and conquering its inner meaning. The word actually means “pre sent.” All of the Now has been pre sent and informed by our past memory and future memory.
As Einstein once said, “The purpose of time is so that everything doesn’t happen at once.” He was referring to horizontal time, even as he was aware of vertical time. His humorous, brain teasing, comment was offered to help reduce mass consciousness confusion about the new concepts in quantum theory called vertical time and circular time.
The first fortnight of time after my birthday is my time to get my sight alignment, and sight picture, and trigger control. Trigger control mostly involves how one is managing their inner world of breath control. If you desire a “good shot;” i.e., a good manifestation, you will learn about the alignment of your vibrational offering (sight alignment) with your vibrational attraction (sight picture), and how the Universe has to manifest that desire for you. An important secret is in the inner world of your breath, and where it merges, around your Heart Mind.
The breath enters the body bringing in with it more than just the oxygen that we need for cellular metabolism; the breath brings the subtle elements of our sustenance, entering the core of our being, and merges around the Heart. The Heart is the seat of the mind. I call this sacred place Heart Mind. We create the future memory of what we manifest from the vibrational energetic of the Heart Mind.
In the wording of the previous paragraph we moved from the Zen of Skill at Arms to the mystery and mastery of Breath to Heart Mind to manifestation of a future memory. Seeming incongruities, or implausibilities, are often an invitation for us to stretch out of our familiar comfort zone of conditioned thinking and feeling. Stream of consciousness play may appear from entry to entry on this Journal site, and the reader is invited to flex.
These days, the word “fortnight” is rarely used. That is to say, I am the only one in my circle of friends and contacts that I hear using the word fortnight. I used it recently and my friend asked me, “What’s a fortnight?” It is a wonderful word from the Old English “feowertyne niht,” which is fourteen nights. It is half of a lunar cycle, which is another way of thinking about it.
Today the New Moon will occur at 9:24 PM, with the Sun and Moon in 5 degrees of Taurus. The sight focus of this New Moon is to rest one’s breath on what you value most, hold fast to that, and let the rest go. Forgive the rest. Just let go of the ball and chain. Onward.
I also think of a fortnight as a regular old 2 week period of time in which I can exercise some passion. Of course every moment is evolving into the next 14 days, and I attempt to hold this fractally nested concept of the evolving Now, with just the number 14. I just think 14, which is two sevens, and so I also like to think “two sevens.” Divide and conquer.
People numerologically associated with”two sevens” seem to be inherently and intrinsically lucky people. For example, someone born with two sevens in their birthday is going to have a lucky life, someone who graduated from medical school in ‘77 is going to have a lucky medical career, someone with 77 in their Social Security number is going to have luck in their professional career and finances, etc.
The number 14 is also associated with the descriptive of Enthusiasm. I know this because my sister Margaret sent me a birthday card from Memphis which explained this description of 14, and I believe in important synchronistic birthday cards from important people.
I went a little further, and looked up Enthusiasm in the dictionary so as to get my sights straight on the etymology. This word is from Greek “enthousiasmous,” and means “to be inspired.” And we are back to the breath. What are we doing in our breath?
There is a pause between every in-breath and every out-breath that most of us pay no attention to. There is not enough focus on the Pause. The Pause is also known by others as the Gap. What is happening in the Pause? Is the Pause of any significance whatsoever?
I think of a symphony, and we are sitting in the concert hall listening to the sound of the symphony. It is a string of notes from a great number of coordinated instruments and players. The arms attached to the stringed instruments are in their vigor, and others muster their breath, exhaling into the fluted tubes. Somebody is waving a magic wand. Cymbals and drums and ongoing melodic vibration are filling the hall and the flesh.
It’s a good thing they have pauses in between those coordinated notes! Otherwise, the flesh would be subject to a discordant cacophony, or chaos of sound, which creates vibrational disturbance in the Heart Mind, so the new science shows.
The Pause between the in-breath and the out-breath helps bring the restful, peaceful Heart Mind. The Heart Mind informs the Brain Mind, and if the Brain Mind is not overriding this valuable and timely energetic, then we get to follow our hearts.
Brain Mind typically overrides Heart Mind if a variety of certain types of traumas are held in the flesh, and upon being triggered at the subconscious and conscious levels, we get to relive a reflexive trauma memory, and lapse back into yet another repetition of Brain Mind running the Autonomic Nervous System around the block again, grinding another imprint of memoried trauma into the flesh, the body, the field of the subconsciousness, and into the surrounding and interpenetrating LightBody.
Forgiveness is the only way we heal. In various forms of martial training and preparedness practices the saying goes, “Train like you fight! Fight like you train!” It’s true, one will fight like they have trained, and they may have trained poorly, or they may have trained well.
Train well. Entrain forgiveness. Non judgement and Self Love will follow.Your spiritual warrior will emerge. Practice makes the master. Traumatic imprinted memory vibrates in our field from the Heart Mind, attracting another manifestation of the trauma imprint. We must forgive these traumas out of our flesh and LightBody.
My brother Robert, who lives in our native Alabama outside of Mobile, is a student and writer about Creek Indian history and lore. The Creeks were the indigenous tribe of native Americans in Alabama and part of Georgia before they were made to go to Oklahoma on the Trail of Tears. Robert taught me some decades ago about the terminology that Creeks used to describe the Divine Creator.
They used a terminology which I shall attempt to spell here, “Esaugetu Emissee.” You can pronounce this phonetically, as you please. Esaugetu Emissee means Master of the Breath, or Breath Holder. Esaugetu Emissee is a nice descriptive of the primordial Creator of the Universe. Universe is a word which means “One Song.”
We are breathed by the Universe, we are breathed by One Song. When the Universe stops breathing these bodies we live in, then we drop the body, cross over into life after life, and then we are breathed yet again via a more subtle breath. Earth plane is just a classroom extension of Heaven, or Paradise. Nothing is separate in the quantum singularity, though dimensions seem to separate the finer and denser frequencies of the manifestation of the Singularity.
I might mention here that brother Robert is writing a novel about the Creek Indians. It is set to be a trilogy, entitled Strong Current. The book is well researched, meticulously so, and will wrap the reader in a story of rights of passage, and beyond. Rights of passage is a motif which seems to have fallen out of our cultural practices. The book should be out in a couple of years from now.
In the late 1970’s I was in surgical residency training in New Orleans and then Baltimore, and I began to study from the teachings of Kashmir Shaivism some esoteric and vital information. There is a certain sound which the breath makes on the way into the field of the quantum Infinity of the heart, and there is a certain sound that the breath makes on its way out from the heart into the quantum Infinity of the field around us.
When you are quiet and gentle and when you focus on the sound of the breath, you can hear these sounds on the in and out on either side of the Pause. The Pause is located at the end of inhalation, and also at the end of exhalation. As you listen intently, the Pause begins to widen in meditation. The in breath sounds like the Sanskrit syllable “Ham,” which means “I Am.” The out breath sounds like the Sanskrit syllable “Sa,” which means “That.”
The ancients who gave us the oldest languaging on Gaia, Sanskrit, devised seed syllables of sounds which resonated meaning inside of our flesh, the body, the field of the subconsciousness. These syllabic sounds also require some Pause to punctuate them into our evolution.
The breath is informing us to step out of the illusion of Separation, the greatest illusion of all. We feel and believe at the level of Brain Mind that we are separate from everything else, but this is not the case in the quantum hologram, or Mind of God. The breath informs us by its very sound, HamSa. “I am That. That I am.”
This sound and meaning revolve on and on with each breath. Listen inside and outside with a certitude of quietness which is known in the Pause.
The modern day Indian teacher Bhagavan Nityananda, said , “The Heart is the hub of all sacred places. Go there, and roam in It.”
While these words were once an abstract concept in my past, I could always feel the statement resonating in my heart. As time passed, I began to feel and know.
Nityananda’s words have continued to inform how I attract and manifest my evolving understanding of an important spiritual truth. I designed a model to guide my future understanding. The model keeps me on track, and therefore offers me a tool to offer to others to keep them on track.
I call this model Haelan LifeStream, and it is founded on Heart based consciousness. Haelan LifeStream is a learning process about body, mind, emotion, and spirit; all centered on Heart Mind and Heart Mind’s inseparable holographic quantum entanglement with the One Mind of All. I am That.
My fortnight since April 14 draws to a close on April 28 with the closing on the property which will become the next point of focus of the Haelan LifeStream Center.
Please visit the Center and Retreat page. I hope that you will come and see.
