Thank you for being you.
Essentially, I had wished to speak, but had nothing to say at the time. So I said very little with the intention of speaking later regardless of the outcome of my experiment. My experiment was an attempt to try an unusual and alternate method of being of service with my experiences.
That said, I am now ready to add another detail to my story, which I shall also copy into the first post.
A few years ago (perhaps when I was 15), while riding the schoolbus home for the day, a strange thought surfaced lightly in my mind, which I did not understand. It was seemingly addressed directly to me, as if it were not my thought, but a cryptic message. The sentance was, "Every story you have ever read is true." I did not understand... how could that be? The thought kept surfacing in my mind as if my own but not. It only faded once I made the intention/response that I would "keep that in mind". I did not immediately accept it as truth, but I agreed to consider and be aware of that possibility, and the "message" faded in response. This experience had some effect on my growth, in that I was fascinated by the aspect of infinity it suggested. If every story I've ever read is true, then why not everything I have ever imagined, and even could imagine, and beyond? This message, combined with other events and, of couse, my very nature, lead me to contemplate some things.
The contemplation lead me to form and bring these reasonings together (among others):
Everything Exists. - the statement of Unity and Infinity. I invite all to contemplate this statement as a potentially useful excercise.
Nothing does not Exist. - as I would later read from Ra, "There is no nothingness." I also invite the contemplation of this concept. If you wish, try to imagine nothingness. Is it possible?
Existence is infinite
(Therefore) Everything is Infinite.
God is infinite.
(Therefore) God is Existence.
(Therefore) God is Everything.
(Therefore) Nothing is not God.
Of course, these statements border on the limits of our language's ability to describe.
All blessings to all.
