Dear Dale, Wow, human consciousness meets human consciousness and I guess it will be a pleasure meeting on a level playing field being to being. I can feel the intensity of your consciousness and of your challenge jump right off the page even without seeing your face and they say we need visiual cues. And I must say that I appreciate your attempt to begin with questions that try to clarify my communications instead of jumping right in. Sounds like we have some people here who know how to really listen. I don't often meet such folks in real life. (wait a minute I didn't really say that did I, this is real!) Obviously, in my conscious this is as real a communication as if you were sitting here. One thing that strikes me in the moment is the time we have to reflect on each others communications, time to listen and take things in. Time to think a little as we respond. I think this facilitates deeper and more meaningful communication, what do you think? But to get to your questions. I guess you could say that I go all the way with this consciousness stuff. First just on a word level, yes for me consciousness is what reality is. For me pure consciousness is God or God is pure consciousness and it is the stuff that the universe is made of. Is reality part of my consciousness? The only thing I could say about that is that there is no or should be no separation between reality and my consciousness. Everthing that I perceive, think, feel, imagine, intuit, sense is really just a disturbance in my consciousness. But I could go on all night about or lecture about the nature of consciousness and how it is the dark light of space and includes all the light from all the stars in the universe but I don't think that is what we want to get into. But I will say on an experiencial level that this morning before getting out of bed I meditated for an hour and just sat inside my own pure consciousness, beyond all thought and feeling and body sensation. Nice space and strong and self confirming. When I had to look at some of the trouble spots in my life the thoughts would come up real slow and kind of hang there in space for a minute so that I could feel my strenght in relationship to those things without being disturbed by them. I hope this makes a little sense.

Though I am romantic myself and have the pleasure of loving and being loved by a beautiful women and wife and have lived the greatest romance with her I have studied this subject before during and now after and have found that the incredible love I feel and share with her is dependant on my ability to love 360degrees around me, to love all who I meet and "communicate" with. When we lie with I will love only you we are talking about the romance and the type of relationships that 90 percent of the music on the radio is about, falling in and out of love and all the blindness and temporary ego collapse. I feel that non exclusive love is a new light being born on the planet and those who cling to much to that one other are suffering and that is one basic reason why we are seeing so much divorce and separation.

The rest will have to wait till tommorow becausse that beautiful women of me is calling for me to go to bed and she is good at watching out that I do not over do it. Talk to you tommorow and I look forward to your penetrating challenges and I hope in the end or in the beginning we also find love and understanding and cooperation but any which way we have to go to get there is fine with me. I respect most of what I have read here on this thread and it seems like there are some real interesting people here that I would like to get to know.

Goodnight, Robin
