Welcome to the Human Spectrum: The Russian Doll Spectrum.
I have posted 3 "videos" related to the conclusions resulting of the A.V.A study / a total of 21 files. I have cut these conclusions in 3 sets to make them more easy to process because despite being massive the A.V.A study is easy to cut in modules.
In fact, it is way more than just one conclusion but a collection of astonishing finds leading to a new paradigm in Social sciences, Health, Justice...I so wish this could change the way we understand each others, shaping a safer more ethical society.
I do believe in Justice but that world is NOT safe, NOT ethical:
Abusers are protected.
Victims are re-victimized.
Politicians, Police and, Justice are all corrupted.
It's chaos everywhere.
It's confusion everywhere.
It should not be that way.
It must not be that way.
There should be an other way.
There must be a better way.
If you look at the wild world, it is both structured and peaceful.
Science has an amazing understanding of the complexity of the natural world.
All forms of life are classified, in order, in orders. From the smallest, to the biggest: from atoms to bacteria, elephant or coral. Science has find orders, naming and classifying so much, so well. It's all...tidy:
We understand how bees dance to communicate and why bees built their hives with octagons.
We understand how bats use their sonar.
We understand how dolphins talk and how ants built their nest.
We can predict quakes and eruptions in nature.
We can travel under abyss or to the moon...
But in that never ending understanding of the wonders of the world, there is an astonishing paradox: Science does not understand humans or quakes in their brains and eruption of anger.
Science does not explain why the self labelled most intelligence creature of them all, the social human goes to never ending wars, use tortures, rape its own female, abuse their children, enslave others (still),... Science does not explain why a terrorist can kill hundred in the name of God, while some others will burn the wild forests of the world that sustain so much life.
Science does not understand:
Why Hitler lead the world to global war?
Why Nelson Mandela die apartheid fighter while his wife Winnie end up on trial for corruption and murder?
Why the most iconic woman Marilyn Monroe had never ending miscarriages and could never pass her genes?
Why Bill Cosby a father icon end up being an authentic sex predator?
Why the bright genius Robin William did killed himself ?
or why when they get old, so many of these bright humans will get dementia...
Science does not understand humans.
Science does not understand the nonsense of humans.
Instead Sciences does labels. A head spinning merry-go-round of labels: Autism, Bipolar, Borderline, Dementia, Narcissist, Pedophiles, Psychopath, Schizophrenia, Sociopath,...but who is who and why? What is the trigger spinning the chaos?
Even Science is confused: Is a patient autistic...or schizophrenic...or both??? Why autistic patients share so much comorbid characteristics with Schizophrenic patients? What does trigger Dementia? Why some have hallucinations? What is the etiology difference between auditory and visual hallucinations ?
Science who does explain just everything does not understand humans? Really? Can it be possible? What a paradox! Maybe this is where is the nonsense of our world? Maybe understanding what elude us about ourselves would bring peace to the chaos of humankind?
And what if, we knew...without knowing that we knew?
I do believe so.
A.V.A Study does support that belief.
A.V.A Study is a meta study investigating and connecting the most astonishing studies and knowledge from sciences about humans. A.V.A study does connect the human knowledge about human from the genius of Leonardo Da Vinci, to molecular neuro-sciences from few months ago.
The main problem about sciences, is not the lack of knowledge. The main problem in Sciences is the lack of communication. Science is sclerosed: Sciences does compartmentalization so much and so well that Science does forget to share with itself it's own knowledge. This is real and this is non sense, a real waste of precious knowledge.
Social Sciences focused on Social Sciences. Brain science focused on brain. Genetics focused on genes...Everyone focusing on what they investigate. Everyone is a specialist.
I'm no specialist. I'm avid learner. I have no real expertise in science but I'm avid reader who like to understand. One day, I did start a book for my daughter to answer her many questions. Her book grow big, too big. I scale to a study: a monster study, a meta study: the A.V.A Study.
While it was only expecting to investigate the roots of violence, A.V.A Study does give sense to the chaos of human with the human spectrum: a widest spectrum including others spectrum's: the Autistic Spectrum, the Schizophrenia Spectrum, the Dementia Spectrum.
A.V. A study end up re inventing human bringing understanding to the chaos:
A.V.A Study find a bio marker to differentiate Autism from Schizophrenia.
A.V.A Study has a suggestion for those who like Professor Simon Baron Cohen are considering a new name would be approprate for the Asperger Spectrum.
A.V.A Study find a cluster of bio markers for visual hallucinations.
A.V.A Study find a cluster of bio markers for auditory hallucinations.
A.V.A Study can explain why patients with Alzheimer have trouble with locomotion.
AA.V.A Study can explain which patients are at risks with Alzheimer and why.
And most of all, hopefully, A.V.A Study does help understand violence finding clusters of bio-marker for antisocial behavior.
Rethink all this and much more: making it simple, solving so many problems that are all connected:
With so many implications the speed of the videos is just to give you a sense of what is behind that study, my monster baby.
When I start that project my goal was to explain neurology to a non reading child so I had to go visual. She was 5 at that time and was confused why the world she was living in was unfair. She is 9 now. Her world is still unfair but she does understand why.
I do understand human. I made our world easy, tidy, out of chaos. I wish I can make your reality as simple as our is now because if we all understand that reality there will be no chaos anymore.
I'm human. I know who I'm. I know where I do stand on the human spectrum. What about you? Where do you think you would stand? What would you do with that knowledge about yourself ? What would you do if you could knew yourself deep to the core? What would you do if you could know just about...anyone?
I hope you have questions.
I have answers.

DRAFT-IN-PROCESS
In "The Biology of Transcendence: A Blueprint of the Human Spirit", Joseph Chilton Pearce writes,
"....Neither our violence nor our transcendence is a moral or ethical matter of religion, but rather an issue of biology. We actually contain a built-in ability to rise above restriction, incapacity, or limitation and, as a result of this ability, possess a vital adaptive spirit that we have not yet fully accessed.
"While this ability can lead us to transcendence, paradoxically it can lead also to violence; our longing for transcendence arises from our intuitive sensing of this adaptive potential and our violence arises from our failure to develop it...."
In response to Pearces's assertion, my question 'How can this adaptive potential be developed?' leads me on another quest.
*
First, a side trip to my previous post. Comments came that over-population is the most pressing social issue.
Here's my spin on over-population. As with all issues, 'over-population' is the perception that there's a problem.
The perception stretches the comfort zone of the perceiver, making it an issue.
Facts and figures may seem to indicate over-population threatens our survival, but it still comes down to individual interpretation of the facts. Some say it's an issue, some say it's not.
The world's best scientists cannot agree on issues such as global warming and over-population....
The global elite, it seems, are currently working on the 'problem' of over-population. How they go about it, though, may be on their karma.
We who value the thriving of earth and her creatures, including the human species, can put more energy into elevating the quality of life for those who remain, such as by teaching our children and ourselves emotional intelligence skills as one step.
Although in 1978 at age 25 I made a decision to not have children, I now have two sons and grandchildren by love and marriage, and am related to all children by humanity.
Whether issues exist or are merely the projections of perceptions, I choose to support a shift towards a 'better world' by putting a different SPIN on myself, that is, by allowing my Source-Psyche INtegration to emerge.
*
That brings me back to the central question of this post, 'How can this adaptive potential be developed?'
Pearce also wrote, "From the beginning of our life, the characteristics of each new possibility must be demonstrated for us by someone, some thing, or an event in our immediate environment.... models of nature's new possibility, our next evolutionary step manifested by our newest neural structure, transcending violence to create a new, viable reality...."
Further along, Pearce continues, "There are many names for, and facets of, the shifts our spirit can bring about. Unconflicted behavior isn't a religious, theoretical, philosophical, or semantic issue, nor a matter of logic. Instead it is the alogical crack in the egg of reality, the way of faith, the way by which creator and created give rise to each other.
"Faith and belief are poles apart. Belief is intellectual and from the head. Faith comes, I can only surmise, from the heart, or perhaps from kath or chi — that center of will in our being."
So I ask further, what are the conditions in which ascendence or transcendence occurs? Two are primary: Faith and Grace.
Grace is a condition over which the individuated human expression has no control. It is the lightening bolt, the NDE, the spontaneous expansion of Consciousness which lifts a person into another reality -- and gives a glimpse of eternity.
Faith is initiated by the person with an act of free will to surrender survival instincts and strategies to a higher power. This biological imperative as Pearce describes is activated in a clear moment of decision to let go of personal choices and trust deeply beyond the personal to the greater existence, with no labels or beliefs required..
Grace and Faith work together in a Creator-Created dynamic, the eternal and temporal aspects of the same One Being.
Here's one way the biological adaptive potential of humans might be developed:
Some few modern humans may step out of their cultural confines and be the initiators of a new model — such as, 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself.'
For me, there is no separation between 'I am Source' and 'having a human experience.' They are two aspects or focal points of the same, therefore concerns about personal pronouns are a moot point. The actual is in the energy behind the words, in the motives, emotions and choices of the will.
Service to self or service to others may simply be service to contraction or service to expansion — service to division or service to wholeness, factoring in the free will choice of each individual.
Reflecting on this, initiating the new model will likely involve faith not of a religious but of a biological kind activated by a choice of will or an opening of the heart. An intermediary step may be to focus energies on developing emotional intelligence that includes self-awareness and self-management and for which there are an abundance of tools.
Looking at the tools, I feel a need to approach the traditional emotional intelligence assessment from another angle, and welcome feedback.
Traditional assessments and other resources can be found here: EMOTIONAL ALCHEMY.

An intermediary step may be to focus energies on developing emotional intelligence, for which there are an abundance of tools.
Looking at the tools, I feel a need to approach the emotional intelligence assessment from another angle, and welcome feedback.
Traditional assessments and other resources can be found here: EMOTIONAL ALCHEMY.
SPIN EMOTIONAL ASSESSMENT
The first line of each is from a traditional assessment,
followed by my feelings towards the statement.
This is still in-process.
The idea is to go beyond a numbered answer, which I found to be of limited value, and instead give a more complete and honest written response, which can only help increase my self-awareness. And then, see how it unfolds.
Self-Awareness
___ 1. I am aware of the physical reactions (twinges, aches, sudden changes) that signal a “gut reaction.”
I am more often aware on a subtle level of intuitive feeling, 'below' body awareness, and sometimes of physical reactions such as tight neck and shoulder muscles, or heightened stress which appears as sensitivities.
___ 5. In assessing a situation, I look at my biases and adjust my assessment accordingly.
Recently, I am more aware that my thoughts and their associated feelings are from prejudices and mis-perceptions. Then I drop the perception and gain clarity about what is.
___ 9. I consider my “emotional temperature” before I make important decisions.
I am becoming more aware of the impulsiveness of my past, and have recent examples of pausing to consider emotional states and motives before making decisions.
___ 12. I can identify the emotion I am feeling at any given moment.
It is still challenging to identify my emotional feeling of the moment. Most often it seems my feelings are neutral, although I am aware of emotional pain passing through.
___ 15. I think about the emotions behind my actions.
This is something I can practice more. I am aware that my self-assessment may be distorted, such as believing I am peaceful when actually my feelings are numb.
What can be improved?
I would benefit from pausing to 'assess by feeling' a situation before even having a thought towards it -- and pausing more in general to feel.
Self-Management
___ 3. When I feel angry I can still stay composed.
This honestly has improved for me over the past few years. Of course, my self-assessment can only be vague without my being tested by challenges and having the feedback of those who know me.
___ 6. I can keep going on a project, despite obstacles.
A characteristic of Asperger's is staying on task. I feel strong about my steadfastness to complete.
___ 10. When I feel a strong impulse to do something, I usually pause to reflect and decide whether I really want to act on it.
That too is getting better. I feel more in control, or mastery, of my impulses.
___ 13. I am able to honestly say how I feel without getting others upset.
Generally, I find written communication more soothing and less threatening when it comes to saying how I feel. It is hard to compose the words on the spot, to someone's face.
___ 18. I am good at managing my moods, and I refrain from bringing negative emotions to work.
'Bringing negative emotions to work' doesn't apply as I am retired. I was not good at this during my years of employment. Far too out-spoken and reactive to be socially attractive. Tended to instigate needed change without trying. Of course, I never had the whole view. I can only speculate that my mood management would be much improved now.
What can be improved?
It is early to say, yet there is a feeling that when a base is established in my psyche that 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself', it will give me a still place to go internally in a storm. Even though nothing is external, the language is used to communicate.
Social Awareness
___ 4. I generally have an accurate idea of how another person perceives me during a particular interaction.
Mostly I've been clueless about how others perceive me, and sometimes deliberately ignorant. However, I am starting to pick up on it.
___ 7. I can engage in an interaction with another and pretty well size-up that person’s mood based on non-verbal signals.
Not at all. And if I get a clue, no telling how accurate it is.
___ 14. I can show empathy and match my feelings with those of another person in an interaction.
As an Aspie, I have undisplayed empathy. I do feel the feelings of others, often on a subtle level, and sometimes feel pain for their pain. I deeply feel more global emotional pain, and in reflecting on the past feel the emotions of others.
___ 17. I watch how others react to me to understand which of my own behaviors are effective and which are not.
Mostly I am confused by how others react to me and tend to set it aside. It would be helpful to improve my observation and interpretation skills.
___ 19. It’s easy to understand why other people feel the way they do.
Certainly my past judgment of how people feel has shifted to more compassion and understanding.
What can be improved?
I would benefit from pausing to assess my own energies before entering a new situation, and make a smoother transition. I can also give more focus to feeling others.
Relationship Management
___ 2. I readily admit mistakes and apologize.
It seems relatively easy for me to admit mistakes and apologize, although it may require some processing time first. I do a lot of self-talk and self-corrections but need to be more aware of my inner critic. Often, apologies aren't enough or aren't wanted, so changing the behavior that gives rise to apology would be more useful.
___ 8. Others feel encouraged after talking to me.
I imagine that is more true of my written than my verbal skills.
___ 11. I can deal calmly, sensitively, and proactively with the emotional displays of others.
It's getting better, especially when I'm not already stressed.
___ 16. I am respected and liked by others, even when they don’t agree with me.
I don't know but feel it's generally true. People seem to be fairly forgiving, or just don't want conflict so don't hold grudges. In discussion groups, I am better at not reacting to triggering comments, and am glad to leave it alone -- although self-righteousness occasionally kicks in.
___ 20. I can effectively persuade others to adopt my point of view without coercing them.
In earlier years I was fairly successful in sales. These days I generally don't want or try to be persuasive, even when passionate to share my realizations. I prefer to share or express, with no attachment to expectations. Management or mastery of self resonates with me, controlling situations does not. I prefer the strength to let it go and yield to trust. In the end, it is each person to their own journey.
What can be improved?
I have a tendency to be overly-serious and would benefit myself and others by learning to loosen up, lighten up, and laugh a lot more.

That brings me back to the central question of this post, 'How can this adaptive potential be developed?'
Pearce also wrote, "From the beginning of our life, the characteristics of each new possibility must be demonstrated for us by someone, some thing, or an event in our immediate environment.... models of nature's new possibility, our next evolutionary step manifested by our newest neural structure, transcending violence to create a new, viable reality...."
Here's how:
Some few modern humans may also step out of their cultural confines and be the initiators of a new model — such as, 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself.'
An intermediary step may be to focus energies on developing emotional intelligence, for which there are an abundance of tools.
Looking at the tools, I feel a need to approach the emotional intelligence assessment from another angle, and welcome feedback.
Traditional assessments and other resources can be found here: EMOTIONAL ALCHEMY.
SPIN EMOTIONAL ASSESSMENT
The first line of each is from a traditional assessment,
followed by my feelings towards the statement.
This is still in-process.
The idea is to go beyond a numbered answer, which I found to be of limited value, and instead give a more complete and honest written response, which can only help increase my self-awareness. And then, see how it unfolds.
Self-Awareness
___ 1. I am aware of the physical reactions (twinges, aches, sudden changes) that signal a “gut reaction.”
I am more often aware on a subtle level of intuitive feeling, 'below' body awareness, and sometimes of physical reactions such as tight neck and shoulder muscles, or heightened stress which appears as sensitivities.
___ 5. In assessing a situation, I look at my biases and adjust my assessment accordingly.
Recently, I am more aware that my thoughts and their associated feelings are from prejudices and mis-perceptions. Then I drop the perception and gain clarity about what is.
___ 9. I consider my “emotional temperature” before I make important decisions.
I am becoming more aware of the impulsiveness of my past, and have recent examples of pausing to consider emotional states and motives before making decisions.
___ 12. I can identify the emotion I am feeling at any given moment.
It is still challenging to identify my emotional feeling of the moment. Most often it seems my feelings are neutral, although I am aware of emotional pain passing through.
___ 15. I think about the emotions behind my actions.
This is something I can practice more. I am aware that my self-assessment may be distorted, such as believing I am peaceful when actually my feelings are numb.
What can be improved?
I would benefit from pausing to 'assess by feeling' a situation before even having a thought towards it -- and pausing more in general to feel.
Self-Management
___ 3. When I feel angry I can still stay composed.
This honestly has improved for me over the past few years. Of course, my self-assessment can only be vague without my being tested by challenges and having the feedback of those who know me.
___ 6. I can keep going on a project, despite obstacles.
A characteristic of Asperger's is staying on task. I feel strong about my steadfastness to complete.
___ 10. When I feel a strong impulse to do something, I usually pause to reflect and decide whether I really want to act on it.
That too is getting better. I feel more in control, or mastery, of my impulses.
___ 13. I am able to honestly say how I feel without getting others upset.
Generally, I find written communication more soothing and less threatening when it comes to saying how I feel. It is hard to compose the words on the spot, to someone's face.
___ 18. I am good at managing my moods, and I refrain from bringing negative emotions to work.
'Bringing negative emotions to work' doesn't apply as I am retired. I was not good at this during my years of employment. Far too out-spoken and reactive to be socially attractive. Tended to instigate needed change without trying. Of course, I never had the whole view. I can only speculate that my mood management would be much improved now.
What can be improved?
It is early to say, yet there is a feeling that when a base is established in my psyche that 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself', it will give me a still place to go internally in a storm. Even though nothing is external, the language is used to communicate.
Social Awareness
___ 4. I generally have an accurate idea of how another person perceives me during a particular interaction.
Mostly I've been clueless about how others perceive me, and sometimes deliberately ignorant. However, I am starting to pick up on it.
___ 7. I can engage in an interaction with another and pretty well size-up that person’s mood based on non-verbal signals.
Not at all. And if I get a clue, no telling how accurate it is.
___ 14. I can show empathy and match my feelings with those of another person in an interaction.
As an Aspie, I have undisplayed empathy. I do feel the feelings of others, often on a subtle level, and sometimes feel pain for their pain. I deeply feel more global emotional pain, and in reflecting on the past feel the emotions of others.
___ 17. I watch how others react to me to understand which of my own behaviors are effective and which are not.
Mostly I am confused by how others react to me and tend to set it aside. It would be helpful to improve my observation and interpretation skills.
___ 19. It’s easy to understand why other people feel the way they do.
Certainly my past judgment of how people feel has shifted to more compassion and understanding.
What can be improved?
I would benefit from pausing to assess my own energies before entering a new situation, and make a smoother transition. I can also give more focus to feeling others.
Relationship Management
___ 2. I readily admit mistakes and apologize.
It seems relatively easy for me to admit mistakes and apologize, although it may require some processing time first. I do a lot of self-talk and self-corrections but need to be more aware of my inner critic. Often, apologies aren't enough or aren't wanted, so changing the behavior that gives rise to apology would be more useful.
___ 8. Others feel encouraged after talking to me.
I imagine that is more true of my written than my verbal skills.
___ 11. I can deal calmly, sensitively, and proactively with the emotional displays of others.
It's getting better, especially when I'm not already stressed.
___ 16. I am respected and liked by others, even when they don’t agree with me.
I don't know but feel it's generally true. People seem to be fairly forgiving, or just don't want conflict so don't hold grudges. In discussion groups, I am better at not reacting to triggering comments, and am glad to leave it alone -- although self-righteousness occasionally kicks in.
___ 20. I can effectively persuade others to adopt my point of view without coercing them.
In earlier years I was fairly successful in sales. These days I generally don't want or try to be persuasive, even when passionate to share my realizations. I prefer to share or express, with no attachment to expectations. Management or mastery of self resonates with me, controlling situations does not. I prefer the strength to let it go and yield to trust. In the end, it is each person to their own journey.
What can be improved?
I have a tendency to be overly-serious and would benefit myself and others by learning to loosen up, lighten up, and laugh a lot more.
In "The Biology of Transcendence: A Blueprint of the Human Spirit", Joseph Chilton Pearce writes,
"'The ability to rise and go beyond' is the definition of transcendence.... While this force constitutes our nature and fires our spirit, an honest exploration of it must contend with this counter question: Why, with a history so rich in noble ideals and lofty philosophies that reach for the transcendent, do we exhibit such abominable behaviors? Our violence towards ourselves and the planet is an issue that overshadows and makes a mockery of all our high aspirations....
"Neither our violence nor our transcendence is a moral or ethical matter of religion, but rather an issue of biology. We actually contain a built-in ability to rise above restriction, incapacity, or limitation and, as a result of this ability, possess a vital adaptive spirit that we have not yet fully accessed.
"While this ability can lead us to transcendence, paradoxically it can lead also to violence; our longing for transcendence arises from our intuitive sensing of this adaptive potential and our violence arises from our failure to develop it...."
"Culture, as the collected embodiment of our survival ideation, is the mental environment to which we must adapt, the state of mind with which we identify.
"The nature or character of a culture is colored by the myths and religions that arise within it, and abandoning one myth or religion to embrace another has no effect on culture because it both produces and is produced by these elements.
"Science has supposedly supplanted religion — but it has simply become our new religious form and an even more powerful cultural support....
"That we are shaped by the culture we create makes it difficult to see that our culture is what must be transcended, which means we must rise above our notions and techniques of survival itself, if we are to survive...."
"Creator and created as a co-inspiring dynamic make imperative a simple natural law: Intelligence, no matter how innate or genetically encoded, can unfold within us only when an actual model for that intelligence is given us.
"All dynamics must have their generative source, even if the source can never be factually determined -- if there are two mirrors reflecting each other in an infinite regress, which one could we say initiates the reflection?...."
[Gary's note: Perhaps the initiator is the One who placed the mirrors, i.e., the self-existing Source/cosmos of consciousness/One Being which broke the Stillness so that creator Gods/Goddesses and their creations would emerge.]
"From the beginning of our life, the characteristics of each new possibility must be demonstrated for us by someone, some thing, or an event in our immediate environment.... models of nature's new possibility, our next evolutionary step manifested by our newest neural structure, transcending violence to create a new, viable reality...."
[Gary's note: Some few humans may also step out of their cultural confines and be the initiators of a new model — such as, 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself.']
"I discovered how to bypass my body's most ancient instincts of self-preservation, which resulted in a temporary absence of all fear and subsequent abandonment of all caution....
"This sort of unconflicted behavior manifested, it seemed, from a split-second recognition, without qualification or rationale, that death was a foregone conclusion, an integral part of that very event, that death was already within me. Death was not a possibility to be avoided but a fact to be accepted as it was already accomplished -- death had already happened....
"To find that the structure of reality was negotiable when I was free of all internal conflict was a momentous discovery for me -- as was my realization that all internal conflict is produced by our feat of possible harm or death. The irony of this is that there exists for us a state in which harm really can't occur within the confines of a particular single event if we bypass our block of fear and open to this other perspective.
There are many names for, and facets of, the shifts our spirit can bring about. Unconflicted behavior isn't a religious, theoretical, philosophical, or semantic issue, nor a matter of logic. Instead it is the alogical crack in the egg of reality, the way of faith, the way by which creator and created give rise to each other.
"Faith and belief are poles apart. Belief is intellectual and from the head. Faith comes, I can only surmise, from the heart, or perhaps from kath or chi -- that center of will in our being."

PSYCHOSPIRITUAL SOURCE INTEGRATION
EARLIER VERSION
770 Words
An inquiring mind asks, 'Would preparation be helpful towards easing me through the current cycle of cosmic events, to a new experience of existence?'
My psychospiritual development feels to be the foundation for this new experience, upon which all else rests.
How can I consciously accelerate my psychospiritual development, the integration of human experience with essential being?
I've found the vibrational qualities of the eternal psychospiritual can be touched by softening attention, letting go of attachments, and 'sinking in' to the subtle and mystical eternal (sometimes called turning inward, though no border between inner and outer actually exists.)
From that place/non-place, the 'inner' voice spoke to Elijah, not in fire or earthquakes but in a gentle breeze, and through the psalmist wrote, 'Be still, and know, I am God'.
As an aside, the patriarchal/masculine God of the Bible separate from humanity is to me preceded by the self-existent all pervasive cosmos of consciousness, referred to as Source. Still, I respect the literary work of the Bible and gain insight from it.
Nothing is external. Yet generally, modern society creates a false sense of the temporal external, and drives all attention there. Our cultural imprints are mostly oppositional to deep spiritual connection. Note that external is eternal with an X.
Continuous imbalanced focus on the temporal and sensory-based external hinders the psychospiritual essence of humanity from developing, while technology advances. The vibrational qualities of 'love for Love Itself', felt in the heart and cellular, is the ultimate connectedness, while the temporal distortions of the world generate a sense of disconnect.
What would effectively address this state of affairs, for betterment?
It seems the metaphorical veil between human experience and Source is thinning, which enables more direct conscious connection. Psychological patterns of mass consciousness are set against this and insist on separating my experience from my essence, but I can create new patterns by integrating with essential being, the Source I am.
Source, as I understand, is also developing or evolving. The cosmos of consciousness is self-learning, and my human experience/personality/individuality is part of the process. As an individuality, I am not the entirety, but a fractal, of Source. Still, in that fractal is the whole. I am not perfected but on the path, and leave the details to the unfolding Mystery.
A person conscious of having a moral and ethical core cannot act in contradiction to it when they are in integrity.
Someone with weak or no essential integration will be far more capable of acts against the earth and humanity, would you agree?
A statement of Source integration can begin with 'I am...'
For example, 'I am Source, integrating a human experience.'
What sort of person would likely develop from their conscious Source integration?
How would relationships with others be affected by the Source integration of each person?
According to the Ra material (Law of One), the determining factor of Ascension is whether a person's life serves self or others.
As I mused upon this, the realization came that if I serve others in order to gain reward for myself, I am actually serving self.
Therefore, motivation matters.
So my statement of self-identity continues,
I am Source,
integrating a human experience,
guided and motivated
by my love
for Love Itself.
'My love', when deeply felt, bridges consciously between my finite human experience and infinite Love Itself.
Now, what type of human being would likely develop from living in alignment and integrity with that statement?
Would such a person be able to exploit others, and natural resources? What sort of characteristics would naturally develop in that person?
In what ways can this Source integration be applied to my daily life and evidenced in my quality of actions?
While reinforcing PSI (Psychospiritual Source Integration) with the mantra and deep breathing, periodically over the day, I work on my shadows by examining the contents of my mind in the light of expanding awareness.
For example, I became aware of how my prejudices towards certain types of diversity have run through my life, and let them go, one by one and in the moment. I cannot live from 'Love for Love Itself' if there is any prejudice in me.
Living from the Christ mind in a human experience, I imagine, still necessitates using discernment (having frequency and resonance awareness) and setting boundaries at times. Though it might appear otherwise, neutrality is not passivity, and there is strength in sensitivity.
Reader feedback is appreciated.

Psychospiritual Integration
786 Words
Universal vibrations of joy, peace, and freedom broadcast signals throughout the human design, non-intrusively yielding to the inherent gift of free will choice.
On our journey through the ages, we humans develop and expand, learning to understand our potent gift of free will. Individually and collectively, this awakening can be very unsettling -- a far-reaching and extreme life experience. Another possibility is that we take our development into our own hands.
I was born with an innate urge to examine and question what was presented to me with an open mind. That brought force plenty of struggle yet my love for truth propelled me into new experiences.
I hadn’t found any lasting satisfaction in the solidified material world. Drifting off into religious structure had stiffened my life. Exploring spirituality came with a feeling of exclusion and aloofness. Staying in abstract thought was entertaining yet not very lively.
It is granted that life itself finds a way. In a dark hour my inner light inspired me to stay tall and start living by principles that spoke to my heart. That moment new energy flooded my body and I made a leap and left the shell of my known life.
Critical thinking and knowledge and kept me awake to a degree, yet integration opened all the doors that had excluded me.
It wasn’t all smooth and easy, as mental processing of right and wrong had to shift gears. Expanding into the universal mind of neutrality and creative thought is a continuous process.
But, that is just one side of the coin. While gaining deep insights of the universal workings I saw the need to walk my talk.
While pondering my latest mantra, I am Source having a human experience, it dawned in me that the individual soul or human psyche is a type of regulator for spiritual voltage into the human body.
What allows the higher Voltage?

With delight I realized how beautiful and effortless is the intelligent design.
My early interest in psychology was rekindled by the animated .

BEYOND THE ISSUES
The question, 'What is the single most pressing social issue of our day?', gives me fodder for a muse.
Is there truly any pressing social issue? Or do my biased perceptions project an appearance of social issues, and actually help to manifest and perpetuate them?
The word 'issue' indicates generally the idea that there's unsettled matter in one's world of perception.
Most ideologies of society force uniform and divided thinking as a misleading invitation to belong. Fear is instilled with the limiting concept that I am separated from the Source which is so essential to my life.
For millennia, humanity as a collective has manifested and experienced a social environment built upon traumatizing fear, a world shrouded in beliefs and disputes that often dismiss the deeper solution.
The solution for the social issues I experience and witness in cultural consciousness is found in cognitive psychospiritual development.
Growth or expansion in my life happens when I choose to use my life force and cognition to liberate myself from unkind thinking and limiting actions — by examining the contents of my mind in the light of expanding awareness.
Turning meditative, I experience a peaceful calm, and can look into any idea from a space filled with clear-sighted vision and creative intelligence.
Within that presence, my life shifts into freedom and fluidity, with vibrations that by their inherent nature are a catalyst for social change. Issues cannot linger to create havoc or stagnation in the expansion of a liberated creative intuitive mind.

APPLIED SPIRITUAL IDENTITY
by Gary Smith
A further question is, 'How can I prepare myself for the singular opportunity presented by current cosmic events, to shift my identity to a much greater (yet unknown) existence?'
I say, it is by my psychospiritual development. Upon that foundation, all else rests.
Nothing is external. Yet generally, society creates a false sense of the temporal external, and drives all attention there.
The vibrational qualities of the eternal psychospiritual can be touched by the softening of attention, sometimes called turning inward, though no border between inner and outer actually exists.
Our cultural imprints are mostly oppositional to deep spiritual connection. Even canned meditations focus on external techniques. Notice external is eternal with an x, like 'external is eternal, not.'
Continuous imbalanced focus on the temporal and sensory-based external hinders the psychospiritual essence of humanity from developing, while technology advances. Whereas the vibrational qualities of love for Love Itself felt in the heart and cellular is the ultimate connectedness, the temporal distortions of the world generate a sense of disconnect.
What would effectively address this state of affairs, for betterment?
Would it be possible to distill advanced spiritual principles into a simple, direct application which could be accepted by a majority of the human population?
For example, in theory, human spiritual identity is a primary underlying determining factor of individual behavior.
A person who identifies with having a moral and ethical core cannot act in contradiction to it when they are in integrity.
Someone with a weak or no essential identity will be far more capable of acts against the earth and humanity, would you agree?
What are some of the possible ways of seeing oneself, as a spiritual or non-spiritual being?
Which of those self-identities are most likely to lead to the greater psychospiritual development of the individual?
A statement of self-identity can begin with 'I am...'
For example, 'I am Source, having a human experience.'
What sort of person would likely develop from being in integrity with that self-identity?
How would their relationships with others be affected by that spiritual self-identity?
According to the Ra material (Law of One), the determining factor of Ascension is whether a person's life serves self or others.
As I mused upon this, the realization came that if I serve others in order to gain reward for myself, I am actually serving self.
Therefore, motivation matters.
So my statement of self-identity continues, 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself.'
'My love' bridges between my finite human experience and infinite Love Itself.
Now, what type of human being would likely develop from living in alignment and integrity with that statement?

A further question is, 'How can I prepare myself for the singular opportunity presented by current cosmic events, to shift my identity to a much greater (yet unknown) existence?'
I say, it is by my psychospiritual development. Upon that foundation, all else rests.
Nothing is external. Yet generally, society creates a false sense of the temporal external, and drives all attention there.
The vibrational qualities of the eternal psychospiritual can be touched by the softening of attention, sometimes called turning inward, though no border between inner and outer actually exists.
Our cultural imprints are mostly oppositional to deep spiritual connection. Even canned meditations focus on external techniques. Notice external is eternal with an x, like 'external is eternal, not.'
Continuous imbalanced focus on the temporal and sensory-based external hinders the psychospiritual essence of humanity from developing, while technology advances. Whereas the vibrational qualities of love for Love Itself felt in the heart and cellular is the ultimate connectedness, the temporal distortions of the world generate a sense of disconnect.
What would effectively address this state of affairs, for betterment?
Would it be possible to distill advanced spiritual principles into a simple, direct application which could be accepted by a majority of the human population?
For example, in theory, human spiritual identity is a primary underlying determining factor of individual behavior.
A person who identifies with having a moral and ethical core cannot act in contradiction to it when they are in integrity.
Someone with a weak or no essential identity will be far more capable of acts against the earth and humanity, would you agree?
What are some of the possible ways of seeing oneself, as a spiritual or non-spiritual being?
Which of those self-identities are most likely to lead to the greater psychospiritual development of the individual?
A statement of self-identity can begin with 'I am...'
For example, 'I am Source, having a human experience.'
What sort of person would likely develop from being in integrity with that self-identity?
How would their relationships with others be affected by that spiritual self-identity?
According to the Ra material (Law of One), the determining factor of Ascension is whether a person's life serves self or others.
As I mused upon this, the realization came that if I serve others in order to gain reward for myself, I am actually serving self.
Therefore, motivation matters.
So my statement of self-identity continues, 'I am Source, having a human experience, guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself.'
'My love' bridges between my finite human experience and infinite Love Itself.
Now, what type of human being would likely develop from living in alignment and integrity with that statement?
Would such a person be able to exploit others, and natural resources? What sort of characteristics would naturally develop in that person?

BEYOND THE ISSUES
by Gary and Kati Smith
The question, 'What is the single most pressing social issue of our day?', gives me fodder for a muse.
Is there truly any pressing social issue? Or do my biased perceptions project an appearance of social issues, and actually help to manifest and perpetuate them?
The word 'issue' harbors a distortion, the idea that I have to control life. The perception of needing to be in control (for example, to feel safe and free), fuels the distorted fundamental concepts of society, which many defend vigorously.
Most ideologies of society force uniform thinking as a misleading invitation to belong. They instill fear with the limiting concept that I am separated from the Source which is so essential to my life.
For millennia, humanity as a collective has manifested and experienced a social environment built upon traumatizing fear, a world shrouded in beliefs and disputes that often dismiss the deeper solution.
The solution for the social issues I experience or witness while in cultural consciousness is found in my psychospiritual development.
Growth or expansion in my life happens when I choose to use my life force and cognition to liberate myself from unkind thinking and limiting actions — by examining the contents of my mind in the light of expanding awareness.
In that experience of peaceful calm, I can look into any idea from a space filled with clear-sighted vision and creative intelligence.
Within that presence, my life shifts into freedom and fluidity, with vibrations that by their inherent nature are a catalyst for social change. In that liberating cognitive expansion, there aren’t any issues.

COMMENTS ON 'FULL-FED FOR ASCENSION' POST
Bethany Gosa-Holder
I find your words very inspiring. The way you speak of "starflakes" I just love and seeing their fall into the river also as ascension I can completely identify with. I agree that our individual experience/perception is what ascension is about and I personally have a strange affinity for my shadow self for I believe the whole experience, dark and light, that counts but I am experiencing full force the importance of balance in all things for the time I spent out of balance caused a grave illness to grow. Thankfully I have beaten the cancer and now just have to heal the damage it caused. Your words bring me back to what I have been meditating on and what has been put into my awareness allot lately which is the universal energy shape of the torus. In the shape of the torus all points can be connected to one another. I believe when we are fully awake and ascended we can tap into any experience anywhere and be able to see the whole picture, the whole of ourselves in every dimension as I Am connected to all of the energy of the universe. Thank you for this post and the picture with it as well for I find it very encouraging and it has given me a new perspective to contemplate as I strive to stay in prayer and meditation.

Love your analogy’s re water finding it’s own level and beauty in different states but I want to know who asks the caterpillar if it wants to be a butterfly? Does it have free will? Do we have free will? Do we agree to come to earth and through the family that births us?
Everything responds to love and “vibration” of a person. I think we can raise our vibration by connecting to Source/Creator god through meditating in silence and in nature and tapping into our circadian rhythm’s.
Btw happy birthday Gary from Scotland UK.
Gary
Ah, thoughtful questions. Whatever and wherever I write or respond, it is true for me in that moment and can change in the next. It is continual exploration and discovery.
You asked, '....who asks the caterpillar if it wants to be a butterfly? Does it have free will? Do we have free will'
G -
There is a distinction between nature and humans. Biologically we are part of nature, but as developing psycho-spiritual beings we are unique on earth amongst nature. Not superior, but having a set-apart origin and destiny.
Free will is endlessly debated. Yes, humans have free will choices which a caterpillar 🐛 does not. The caterpillar can only follow the programming of its design.
Human free will is not unlimited. It is interwoven with many factors. I can choose to do my inner work as the post describes but cannot determine the outcome. Often I cannot control my environment and circumstances but always I can exercise a degree of choice in my responses. That's not easy at times, as in my case, the neurology of Asperger's, misophonia and HSP strongly dictates my reactions/responses with what seems to be automatic behavior. However, with honest, diligent inner work I can effect changes.
In the analogy of the post, I see correspondences between the full-fed state of the caterpillar and the psychospiritual readiness of the human, before metamorphosis and ascension. Also, in the dissolution of the caterpillar into liquid within the cocoon/chrysalis and the yielded state of the human ego to its higher self or Source aspect before transformation. In the caterpillar it is pre-programmed. In the human, the choice for yielding comes from within.
You ask, 'Do we agree to come to earth and through the family that births us?'
G -
I can prove nothing, and do not try to impose my views on others. So I can only say what is true for me, in this moment.
My deep knowing tells me I agreed to come to earth, and made choices as a pre-incarnate soul where and when and through whom to be born. The state from which those choices are made cannot be defined from the incarnate state, but in general it is non-linear so time does not exist there as it does here. I feel pre-incarnate beings are not necessarily all-knowing, and it may be that from there, earth life is as mysterious to 'them' as 'they' are to us. We each have only a vague sense of each other, with some exceptions. Nevertheless, the strong sense my my pre-incarnate choices has remained with me over many years. Fifty earth cycles around the sun ago, as a 17 year old, I wrote prose expressing that very thing... making the choice to be born. Again, I am not saying it is true of everyone.
You wrote, 'Everything responds to love and “vibration” of a person. I think we can raise our vibration by connecting to Source/Creator god through meditating in silence and in nature and tapping into our circadian rhythm’s.'
G -
Yes, that is so. I would extend that to say from my experience I raise my vibration and connect with my Source aspect also by examining the contents of my mind throughout the day, in the light of expanding awareness.
Thank you so much for writing. Your questions stimulate my response, and that is helpful to my exploration and discovery.
May I add your comment to my post?

Thank you so much for this amazing response. It resonates very much with me and of course you may post it, copy it anywhere. I consider everything I write on FB to be shareable as, like you, it is only my thoughts at the moment of writing.
I will add I think the spiritual world, spiritual entities arrange “syncing events/path crossing” to aid us and them with the family we agree/arrange to be born into on Mother Earth (who I think is an actual being, who is busy trying to organise humans to “raise their game” as we have already 9 times managed to obliterate ourselves on other earths (that is a long story that I got through a talk by John Lamb Lash who has studied lots of cultures, myths and legends, creation stories etc). You may want to look him up on the Internet.

THE UNIVERSE IS YOU
A gentle voice comes to me, saying:
“You are leaving your home,
Becoming human so that you may
Experience & learn & advance.
The memory of the paradise you
have dwelt in
will be removed; otherwise you
could not bear the pain and sorrow
of life on earth.
You will forget your true identity,
believing yourself to be
a physical being.
The parents you have chosen
will feed you, clothe you, protect you
and give you love.
Be not deceived by those who will
try to convince you that life on
earth is the important, the only,
or that you must secure yourself
to their beliefs in order to be 'saved.'
They have been misled.
Open your mind to all things:
experience the many paths,
always do your best,
and you may one day
be granted Enlightenment
and realize that you
have the life of Buddha,
the life of Krishna,
the life of Baha ‘u’ llah,
the life of Christ within you.
Then you will be freed from the
bonds of the flesh, the bonds of
rebirth, of space and time.”
The way is before me,
i will my molecules to slow
their vibration, and
hover above my mother-to-be.
She is sitting in a chair,
knitting.
i slip inside her and enter
her womb,
the unborn fetus,
now my body.
The woman feels a movement
of life
within her,
and she smiles.

I find your words very inspiring. The way you speak of "starflakes" I just love and seeing their fall into the river also as ascension I can completely identify with. I agree that our individual experience/perception is what ascension is about and I personally have a strange affinity for my shadow self for I believe the whole experience, dark and light, that counts but I am experiencing full force the importance of balance in all things for the time I spent out of balance caused a grave illness to grow. Thankfully I have beaten the cancer and now just have to heal the damage it caused. Your words bring me back to what I have been meditating on and what has been put into my awareness allot lately which is the universal energy shape of the torus. In the shape of the torus all points can be connected to one another. I believe when we are fully awake and ascended we can tap into any experience anywhere and be able to see the whole picture, the whole of ourselves in every dimension as I Am connected to all of the energy of the universe. Thank you for this post and the picture with it as well for I find it very encouraging and it has given me a new perspective to contemplate as I strive to stay in prayer and meditation.

Love your analogy’s re water finding it’s own level and beauty in different states but I want to know who asks the caterpillar if it wants to be a butterfly? Does it have free will? Do we have free will? Do we agree to come to earth and through the family that births us?
Everything responds to love and “vibration” of a person. I think we can raise our vibration by connecting to Source/Creator god through meditating in silence and in nature and tapping into our circadian rhythm’s.
Btw happy birthday Gary from Scotland UK.
Gary
Ah, thoughtful questions. Whatever and wherever I write or respond, it is true for me in that moment and can change in the next. It is continual exploration and discovery.
You asked, '....who asks the caterpillar if it wants to be a butterfly? Does it have free will? Do we have free will'
G -
There is a distinction between nature and humans. Biologically we are part of nature, but as developing psycho-spiritual beings we are unique on earth amongst nature. Not superior, but having a set-apart origin and destiny.
Free will is endlessly debated. Yes, humans have free will choices which a caterpillar 🐛 does not. The caterpillar can only follow the programming of its design.
Human free will is not unlimited. It is interwoven with many factors. I can choose to do my inner work as the post describes but cannot determine the outcome. Often I cannot control my environment and circumstances but always I can exercise a degree of choice in my responses. That's not easy at times, as in my case, the neurology of Asperger's, misophonia and HSP strongly dictates my reactions/responses with what seems to be automatic behavior. However, with honest, diligent inner work I can effect changes.
In the analogy of the post, I see correspondences between the full-fed state of the caterpillar and the psychospiritual readiness of the human, before metamorphosis and ascension. Also, in the dissolution of the caterpillar into liquid within the cocoon/chrysalis and the yielded state of the human ego to its higher self or Source aspect before transformation. In the caterpillar it is pre-programmed. In the human, the choice for yielding comes from within.
You ask, 'Do we agree to come to earth and through the family that births us?'
G -
I can prove nothing, and do not try to impose my views on others. So I can only say what is true for me, in this moment.
My deep knowing tells me I agreed to come to earth, and made choices as a pre-incarnate soul where and when and through whom to be born. The state from which those choices are made cannot be defined from the incarnate state, but in general it is non-linear so time does not exist there as it does here. I feel pre-incarnate beings are not necessarily all-knowing, and it may be that from there, earth life is as mysterious to 'them' as 'they' are to us. We each have only a vague sense of each other, with some exceptions. Nevertheless, the strong sense my my pre-incarnate choices has remained with me over many years. Fifty earth cycles around the sun ago, as a 17 year old, I wrote prose expressing that very thing... making the choice to be born. Again, I am not saying it is true of everyone.
You wrote, 'Everything responds to love and “vibration” of a person. I think we can raise our vibration by connecting to Source/Creator god through meditating in silence and in nature and tapping into our circadian rhythm’s.'
G -
Yes, that is so. I would extend that to say from my experience I raise my vibration and connect with my Source aspect also by examining the contents of my mind throughout the day, in the light of expanding awareness.
Thank you so much for writing. Your questions stimulate my response, and that is helpful to my exploration and discovery.
May I add your comment to my post?

POST IN PROCESS
From the same clouds fall countless starflakes,
each unique yet each (in some way) the same --
composed of and made from crystalline water,
in design no two alike.
So each person journeys through life in their own unique way,
within our common human experience.
Ultimately, each of us finds our own way,
none better or worse, only different, yet the same.
In another place, regarding the ascension journey, I wrote an analogy to answer my own question, 'Can I influence my level of consciousness and experience in the New Earth?'
Water seeks its own level, illustrating how I envision ongoing human ascension to look through the cosmic cycles.
While it is true that in hydroponics water rises rather than falls, and Archimedes developed a screw to move the water uphill, even when man uses technology to modify what Nature would do on its own, the water is still finding its own level. Those mechanisms cause water to overcome its tendency to follow the pull of gravity but even in Nature, water is pulled upwards to nourish plants and trees.
So the analogy could be stretched to say that even with apparent counteractions, the individual human essence finds its own level through the densities and dimensions of ascension. Some water seeps into deep underground rivers while some ascends into the clouds, and one is not better than the other because they both provide experience.
It is one's essence and experience of life that ascends (or transcends its former state), as awareness expands and is integrated. Metaphors tend to break down, yet further understanding may be gained by realizing that for the starflake, its dissolution to water and descent to an underground River can still be called ascension.
There is no objectively upward movement, only transcending a former state, gaining experience, expanding awareness and integrating the energies.
My conscious expansion of awareness and its integration into a 'higher' quality of actions (motivated by my love for Love Itself and serving others, the Whole) determines my degree of ascension. A dear friend wrote, 'In a true experience, the person resolves into it. Expanded consciousness with an equally felt sensation of the quality of that consciousness becomes existing.'
Whatever terms a person uses, what matters is the resonance of the moment. So I ask myself, 'If I serve others motivated by the reward of my ascension, or to feel important, am I actually serving self?'
When the question arises, 'How does this benefit me?', my motives clearly are serving self, which is the orientation of society. Surely I can provide for my needs with a motive of my love for Love Itself, without greed, avarice, or fear of lack.
I find resonance in the moment while testing my motivation (which is not the same as intention) in daily actions. Only I know the motives of my heart, but I must be honest to see it clearly.
A qualifying question to ask myself is, 'Am I guided and motivated by my love for Love Itself?'
When I ask that question of my thoughts, emotions and actions, my conscious yielding to it aligns me more and more to the way I choose. This is after all called a planet of free will choice.
All that is needed is to remind myself continually, and think and act accordingly. So the question can be reformed into an affirmation, a strong guide of resolution to my human experience.
Aligning my energies with 'I am motivated and guided by my love for Love Itself' (which includes facing my shadows) is the whole of my path of ascension, awakening, enlightenment, 5D living, self realization and spiritual development.

I chose these images for this post because I know of no one in the collective human consciousness, whether as myth or historical figure, more representative of ascension than Jesus of Nazareth, a.k.a. Yeshua the Christ. I still resonate with the Christ energies, and like the colors used by the artists as well.

ABOUT US
We are a family of four in central California, working together with a common vision aligned with that of the Cardano founder and community.
That is, we believe in and are committed to an equitable financial system accessible to all, one which eliminates the middleman banker, promotes transparency, provides security, supports environmental sustainability and facilitates a more egalitarian society. Cardano technology is all this and more, as its blockchain can also be used for such things as a transparent and secure voting system.
We are ADA stake pool operators, with the ticker (PROS) which can be found in the ADA wallets under 'Delegate'.
The specifications of our new system hardware, with dedicated servers, exceeds the recommendations for stake pool operations.
WHAT WE DO
We provide a Cardano ADA stake pool service for delegating your ADA and receiving rewards. 10% of our profit (revenue minus operating costs) is donated to non profit organizations and projects which support the bees (more below). We don't provide financial advice, but offer links on this website to the official sites relating to each aspect of staking ADA, so each person can do their own research and make their own decisions.
