If God is a Word...

it is a noun!

it is a verb!

it is a verbal abuse!

So, if we are to not hold on to anything - does God behave the same way? Does God hold on to anything at all? Does God have a Karma?

I think the mind is starting to accept it, it has taken a while. The mirage looks so real, and when the dream is sweet... who wants to wake up :) But the real is too obvious now. There's no one here.
A verb, a process, a vibration, the faintest movement in consciousness rearranges the apparent.

The flow continues, that's the magic. The show must go on.

Yes, indeed there is that key phrase from Infinite Play.

"One being both noun and verb."

I can’t remember if I posted this below so here it is.

Be wary of those that speak of beliefs for they speak of fictions. Speak of knowing from direct experience, possibility and probability. The word “belief” precedes fiction, a hope or wish. Speak of experience this is to testify, speak of possibility and probability

They garnish the truth with fictions, and cloak it with story and labels, don't eat the garnish; see the truth behind the story; cast aside the labels that divide what is not separate.

The truth is known through experience and it's knowing cannot be told, yet being the light one can illuminate the path, of which there are many. The ultimate is not obtained so much as bestowed at a stage of one’s evolution of the soul.

"The Truth becomes self evident it needs no authority"
~Infinite Play

A story may not be the truth, but it may convey it, sometimes the truth is disguised as fiction to escape censor.

A single sentence may convey a volume of truth, a volume of sentences may convey little truth.

The truth is simple, a story complex.

To argue whose fiction is true is a fruitless endeavor.

Bear witness so they are exposed and aware of the possibility and then let it prove itself through their own direct experience and they will have knowing, for the faith that moves mountains does not come from hearsay but from knowing and the knowing cannot be told.

A benevolent all pervading intelligence operating behind the scenes for those with the eyes to see it, synchronicity, the signature of a master coordinator behind all events, evolutionary impetus the cause of effect, one being both noun and verb, that which does is that which is. The self that reads is the self that writes.

In a world of truth there is no fear, in a world of fiction they fear the truth.
~Infinite Play the Movie

Words create illusion
Words destroy illusion
The right words spoken
The spell is broken
~Infinite Play

Greater than a statement is the power of a question; a statement can be deflected, the question creates a vacuum that must be filled.

Hi Sameer, that question was asked and answered here on intentblog Jan 2006 and other places.

Click my name and read the comments, #34.

Amazing coincidence?

Deepak,

Your timing is splendidly uncanny.

I had to deal with this the day before, my ex was forcing the sale of the house, the bankers destroyed my remedy in an unethical move, everything was approved and they suddenly backed out, the world’s financial systems are in big trouble now because they have really raised my ire, and you all have Chase to thank for that. I will be sending every member of congress some great insight.

I was clinging to something I was attached to, my house. So I was processing this all morning soon, as I let go and decided it was perhaps time to move on wherever the universe takes me, free from burdens I felt much better, the darkness lifted, even if it is at a loss I gained my freedom.

Not only that I gave up my attachment to human civilization, so now I can terminate it from my consciousness, and begin it anew.

First to fall will be the Medical Industrial Complex then the Media, then the Bankers and then the Insurance companies that feed off of FEAR. Not that there is anything wrong with the notion behind these industries but ego without wisdom being in control of them have committed extreme violations against humanity, intended or not. They have not fully admitted their wrongs and made amends. An ignorant population watching sports and sitcoms is not off the hook either, a collective fault for sure.

Unless God changes his mind, but that would only happen if everyone changed their mind, if I know what I mean.

They had their chance for correction.

One has an ingenious plan and you can all watch it unfold.

The other day Sunday one of my servers had a problem, so I drove to the data center but I took the Greenfield exit instead of Evergreen, not sure how that happened but there are no accidents. I got a little lost but then found myself at the offices of a famous attorney who someone had just mentioned I should see to help with a very special movie of a mock trial. It was as if I was being directed.

I can’t say for certain what will happen because many minds could change in a day.

By the way the problem with the server mysteriously dissapeared after a reboot and I could not find the cause. Oh and the Lawyer has a television studio.

A trillion dollar class action in the court of mind.

I will check that out Richard. Thanks!

Well, after listening to that video, I can see what Deepak is talking about.

We are the process and all this is the process and if we know this, then there is nothing to hold on to or cling to and visa versa, as holding is resisting the flow or process.

However, since I and most (I would think) cannot seem to rise to that level, it's very difficult to let go. I hear from my higher Self all the time to, "Let go," so now I can see what it really means. It's very hard. Every day I look at my physical body and this physical world, as well as seeing that others look in this way too.

On the flip side, I do not believe that the material world is real, because when I first started seeking God about 6 years ago, I got a peek at what everything really looked like. When I saw everything as a wave, it did not exist materially and I believe that this is the state when matter might be maneuverable or maybe not? I soon became afraid when I could see thru the roof of my house as everything kept expanding, so I stopped looking. This was like a whirlpool of water as Deepak suggested.

I suppose the wisest advice would be to just go and move with the flow like water runs in a stream. So I will keep working on it, even though I probably should not be doing any work on it, because one would have to 'get it' as Deepak says. To really 'get it' and know it would probably be freedom, I suppose.

Well that's all for now.

Thanks for sharing Deepak!

Love, Char

Oh, this reminds me .... my Higher Self told me the several days ago that God was the Program, as well as me (us) being the program. I don't have my notes with me, so I don't remember the exact wording.

Program is both a noun and a verb to. Plus, when I went over my notes, I looked the word program up over the weekend to get a better idea what my Higher Self was saying. It kind of made sense once I read the definition in the dictionary.

Love, Char

That's amazing Char I wrote this here on intent blog just the two days ago, we must be riding the same wave.

As for science and God I think it helps to look at God as the operating system or kernel. The many beings (individuals) are processes or threads that run on top of the kernel. Of course the operating system keeps all the threads running within certain boundaries allocating resources to them etc. I don’t think what we refer to as God is a being of linear thought but something of comprehensive knowing and happening with one simple impetus the expansion of life, consciousness and experience.

This kind of reminder, of what our realest reality is, is something I'd like to hear every day, like a sermon or lecture.

My questions for you: since everything is a pattern we create, why then is God a mystery? How separate is God from us? The insubstantial, ephemeral processes our neurons bracket as things, are part of God. As are we. Does it matter if God is a noun or verb? Is it important that we face the mystery called God squarely enough to give God new labels and categories? These questions aren't asked lightly or sarcastically. I have my own answers to them, but was wondering how you think of these things.

Thank you once again for your voice, which is like a meditation.

Those were definitely onions I was planting.
Yet, under hypnosis, people will eat onions as if they were apples and not bat an eyelid.

Perhaps when I look tomorrow my onions will be radishes. They might not be there at all. Course, those mice are all in my mind. Help! Why do I let them get away with it. I grow onions in my head and mice to eat them.

Pull yourself together, Edmund or you will end up all mice crap.

Go get the cat out of the lookalike box and hope that it's not there, either.

Jeez, for a figment of my imagination, I discovered 'The Way Of The Wizard.' Did I pay you for that Deepak?

Deepak, we should note that non-attachment may save one’s life in the days to come.

If you are one of the “Self” selected few that read Intent Blog you have nothing to fear you will learn what to do or where to go. The people watching sitcoms and sports may miss out, better time spent reading Intent Blog from start to present being sure to not miss the comments, there may be clues for you. Tell your friends and family.

Do you all remember the revelation from Infinite Play that DNA does not appear to have evolved just different switches flipped? It seemingly contains the code for basically every species and it started out that way. It seems I was right about the appendix as an incubator for essential bacteria (nano-technology) and I didn’t require millions for research it came from understanding the biochemical system (I am a systems analyst and architect by trade). Orthodox scientists used the appendix as an example of why evolution was a trial and error accidental thing; I suspect everything has an intelligent reason.

Remember also the speculation from Infinite Play that some members of a species could naturally produce code (a virus) that would terminate other members of the species following the Supreme Evolutionary principle? Well I have studied the plagues the few who survive and a few crucial pieces of Linus Pauling’s research that gave the insight. It may more along the lines of can you handle an upgrade, would you inhibit the fever that controls the process with NSAIDS? Do you have the chemical elements to feed the process of conversion?

Remember what stress does to the immune system? It shuts it down. Remember how it was written that a nation under stress would invite the spread of a pandemic?

Those non-attached would have the strongest immune systems and also represent evolved consciousness who better to survive? The Meek shall inherit the earth.

I unexpectedly watched that movie I AM Legend the other night, I thought it rather beautiful nature having taken over Times Square and those infected reminded me of the ego.

I wrote a piece called Vitamin C and the British Empire about 14 years ago. I also posted it here on intent blog as well. Seek and you shall find the answer. Click my name.

The cost of survival may only be 20 cents a day but it requires knowing and maybe one other special substance that you all will be told about.

Nothing is for certain; many minds can change in day.

It’s just a movie, all in Infinite Play.

Oops, not, there are no accidents. Below is the link regarding the British Empire and Vitamin C the one above was in error?

Don't dwell on the past, be sure to gain it's wisdom.

I doubt seriously that God cares one way or another what we call him/her. Saying God is a verb
is for our benefit no?

If we asked God, s(he) would most likely say there is no such thing as a relationship between subject and object, so that means God would not be an ordinary old verb but an intransitive one.

Again not that God cares, s(he)'s probably having a big chuckle right now.

Heather,

God cannot look upon God, he is doing the looking, it's a vector thing. Hence the eternal mystery.

Without moving put your attention on what is behind you, the great nothing.

Deepak, I love the new way you communicate here! Loving criticism...I'm not crazy about the red glasses! :^)

Makes sense. Since a bible verse reads, "God is love," where 'love' is a predicate nominative, not the object.

So IF love can be both a noun and verb, likewise God must be too.

Richard, my attention is relative, local and ultimately meaningless. Being is.

Happy Godding.

Here is an explanation of the "God Energy" referred to as described by Ra - the Law of One study guide, (search: Ra-the Law of One).

Love causes intelligent energy to be formed. This energy has a rhythm or flow as of a giant heart beating. The outward beating and then the inward beating occurs until all the focuses are complete. Then THEIR SPIRITUAL NATURE OR MASS calls them inward, inward until all is coalesced. This is the rhythm of realty.

There is Unity in this Intelligent Energy. This Unity is all there is. This Unity has a potential and a kinetic. There are distortions of this Intelligent Energy.

The first distortion of intelligent energy is Free Will. The Creator grants total freedom of choice in the ways of knowing.

The second distortion is the distortion of Love. Love uses its intelligent energy to create a CERTAIN PATTERN OF ILLUSIONS OR DENSITIES in order to satisfy its own intelligent estimate of a method of knowing itself.

The third distortion is Light, or Light Energy.

From these three distortions come many, many hierarchies of distortions, each having its own paradoxes to be synthesized, no one being more important than the other.

The origin of all energy is the action of Free Will upon Love. The nature of all energy is Light, including THE INNER LIGHT WHICH IS THE GUIDING STAR OF THE SELF.

This is the true nature of all entities.

Yes Heather,

Language is the fabric of illusion.
~Infinite Play

The physical realm is an illusion/dream. In the movie we see how the smallest particles "pop" in and out of the universe. Scientist are asking in this movie: Where do they appear when they are not appearing in our universe?

I don't believe they appear anywhere. We are witnessing the creation of a dream/Idea. Not God's Idea, but ours.

We believe to be separated from God. In this belief we have created a world/universe apart from God.

As God & spirit is to love...so is Consciousness & Energy to illusion.

Verb...noun....both...neither..beyond.

LOL forgot to mention the movie: What the bleep do we know?

Betty: Thanks for sharing "Ra - the Law of One study guide," as that was very interesting. I'll do a web search on it tomorrow.

Love, Char

Sorry, as I meant "Betsy" S. - my favorite doll was called Betsy and I love her more than anything, until my mother attempted to get rid of her and the third time worked as I never found her. I think I was around 4+ years old.

Ah that's better. AdBlocker to the rescue. It's okay, my friend, Deepak, not casting asp persons. Ad blocker is a misnomer in some respects. It's just blocker in case of your soothing voice. (sincerely)
But it's no good, Deepak. (U know, the verbO) The fact of the matter is that both I and Irvine Waltz and God OBJECT! I never dreamed I'd be able to say that to you. Of course, I never said it to you, anyway. (Ilove the way you say 'anyway',btw.) How could I say it? I don't have access to your accoutriments or the necessary nouns likewise.

But I digress, and, in an attempt to limit damages to my credit record, let me convey, dear Deepak, object of my most obvious affection.
"If you had ever found crap on your shoes you would object, too!"
God objects and that is all there is to it.

As a gardener......well.....oh I wont get into that just now ;)

self, ego, and god - and all the variants in-between (Variants meaning, capitalized, not-capitalized, singularized, pluralized, equated, negated, conflated and analyzed.)...

Talking (thinking - well, on one's BEST days) about self, ego, and/or god (and all variants), at one time or together in a soupy mixture held up as, "an example of my personal intelligence", is an example of wasted time, futility on the hoof, and humans don't HAVE that much time, to waste on such old, forgotten, or best-left-forgotten (yesterday's) "news".

Those that would disagree, even after "thinking more about it" (though generally it is, NOT thinking more about it), are those that have not begun to explore the crevices of the mental landscape wherein they are forced to reside, from birth till death, and usually don't even WANT to, even if they somehow catch wind of the possibility. Hearing that something extraordinary is possible with their evolving nervous systems, and consciousness, raises the hairs at the back of the head and higher in only a very few, and even then, unless somebody TELLS them more, they generally can not continue the exploration on their own.

What is sometimes termed, "the few of the few", are simply those that have already begun and are continuing this exploration, not rehashing the old, tired, and mostly dead or near-dead forms (self, ego, god), but discovering the new for themselves... and then, they don't need somebody ELSE to tell them a damn thing about it - they already KNOW what this kind of unique exploration entails and produces, and they are producing it every minute.

hi there IW,
you say:
"unless somebody TELLS them more, they generally can not continue the exploration on their own"

Some perhaps say 'No More' - when life has not provided the answers that they are seeking, when life has been very difficult, or perhaps the teachers they turned to - to learn from, were fallible.

Yes, to really grow into Awareness,
exploration must continue,
and that longing comes from within,
such as I have experienced
It.

love,
~ Kate

God is a verb, an everflowing process of evolving to higher and higher plateaus of vibrational purity and light. To touch the godliness of life one must become in all ways more and more godlike. This is not theory, it is a living practice. In the living it becomes real. The journey is to make yourself real in the light.

Much of the stupidity prevalent in spiritual circles today is the result of a few deep misunderstandings about the mechanism of inner transformation. An awakened being is a flower of consciousness, the fruit of an often long inner labor of consciousness, and his acts, words and very being arise from a ripeness of intelligence and love surrendering to the grace of his Higher Self. Yet one does not become like him by copying his posture, imitating his words, duplicating his gestures or in any way forcing oneself to fit into how he/she has flowered. Unfortunately, this is what a majority of seekers are doing today...

OSHO says:

"God is characterless, and if you have a character you will never meet God, because your character will confine you into a certain strait jacket; you will become a stereotype, you will not be a living being anymore; you will be a noun not a verb.

God is a verb not a noun. God is a process, a dynamism; and a man of character, the so-called man of character, is dull, dead. He has to be dull and dead, because if he were aware he would have to see the changes that are happening around him and he would have to change accordingly. He has to remain drugged in his unconsciousness, he has to remain fixed with his character because he is always afraid that something may happen and he may have to change his character. He does not want to change his character so he goes on remaining unaware of all that is changing. He also creates a society which is unchanging...."

#30 Great stuff Irvine, gosh, you've got a bit of a bite today! Genius?

Dear Char,

So happy to hear that you enjoyed the input from the source, Ra-The Law of One. I have been very lucky to have discovered this information. Happy reading and I believe you will find it truly enlightening.

"Betsy" S.

I found the story about your doll very interesting. I use the name "Betsy" as it is my given nickname, derived from my more formal one of Elizabeth.

Everything exists, and does not exist all at the same time - except that time does not exist either...until it does, that is.

This material existence that we see, hear, touch, taste, etc., is simply a manifestation of palpable matter for the purpose of enjoyment and expansion by Humanity. It DOES exist at this fairly low level vibration upon which we reside. Love, on the other hand, exists across boundaries of this material vibration, and is likely to morph into something entirely materially unimaginable as energy and light are added.

This is the direction you are headed, by the way - in case you were lost.

PLAH

Aye, pogo, Love is the object of my attention. It's ever so much morphun.

Hey, Richard -

I meant to comment yesterday on your post, but I've been very busy and tired these last few days ... long work hours, etc. Anyway, I think you and I sometimes hit a wave together as well as others. I looked back on my notes last night and I heard about the 'program' on or about March 3 - I think, as I did not bring my notes in again.

Love, Char

Yes, God is a verb. In the Gita, Krishna says "If I acted not ..."

I met a young man on the plane a few weeks back. He was so precise and deliberate and calm in his movements that it appeared he was witnessing his body and willing it to be in synch with his awareness. My goodness he was such a sweetheart. Makes me dizzy to think about this reflective quality of his. But it is all will, God's will and his will. One could say that it is movement of a sort.

While reading comments, the visualization of a seed growing through speed photography came to mind as I thought of how the planet earth would look if it had been seen through the eye of a camera and photographed in a speed mode. Like all plant life, the planet changes over the course of time, naturally, a real reflection of a God creation.

Pantheism makes us believe that all is a part of God and God is a part of all.

If we can see things objectively as a whole, we must then learn to see piece by piece and part by part so that we can see the intricacies of the whole, thus we come closer and closer to understanding a concept of God or Creator.

Noun and verbs only describe aspects of communication, actions or persons, so we are discussing if God is action or person, and notably, all religious organizations have constructed God as a being rather than an action so I contend that God is a noun rather than a verb. The idea is that action results from a process which has to be a noun.

Something exists which puts something into motion. The motion does not move without first the thought or the noun that caused it to act.

Mankind wants to believe that there is some entity or object which is greater than itself so it appears to create a concept of a deity or god...and historically, stories have passed each generations version of that same entity and how that entity must be addressed. None of us reacts to a process or an action as a being but as a movement so we do not consider any actions as creator or deity. God is therefore only a noun. The river moves. The movement of the river is not anything but water rushing past, but the entire structure as a whole is considered a being, an entity, so we call it a name which is river. In English of course.

All this is mind games. Language is a mind game. It is a unifying tool to bring society into focus. So all of life is pure energy always in movement but our minds must focus and thus, we get nouns, people, place, or things. Action is a verb process and while God may be in motion, the concept of what causes the motion is a noun, a thing.

Again, back to the process of a seed germinating and growing, all that is action, but the seed represents a plant, a thing, and it is a noun. In the end, God is like that seed, which is always growing, and all of life imitates that process. The two are essentially one but one must focus on something so it is to the seed we go, the true representative of what is God. Our seed of thought.

Try, try again is my motto. In timelapse photography of seeds germinating, one can watch the progress of a seed from origin to finish, and all I can ask is as that seed is growing, is it a verb or a noun? It is still a seedling but it is also growing and is acting? Is not God the same?
