ANYTHING is possible





Jesus replied, “Why do you say ‘if you can’?

Anything is possible for someone who has faith!”
(Mr 9:23)




This doesn't really belong here - or does it? - but being familiar with the "profile" and the personal inclinations of many readers who like to ponder about the mysteries of time and space, like I (and the rest of us "forget-me-nots") do, I feel the following might be of interest to many of you out there.

[...] By functioning from the level of unbounded consciousness that is the source of creation, one can potentially do anything, no matter how "impossible". Again, the Conscious Unified Field showed that we can indeed consciously choose to manifest phenomena that are improbable enough to be labeled "impossible" in the Materialist Paradigm. Since there is in the world of quantum mechanics a finite probability of anything happening at any time or place, the reality brought to light in the Conscious Unified Field Experiment has the potential to provide the experience that literally anything is possible.

Do you have a dream that moves you deeply? If so, your dream moves you deeply for a reason, and you can move nature deeply in the same way. The Conscious Unified Field Experiment showed that nature responds to our inner desires and intentions in "impossible" ways. If there is a single take-home message [...] it is that you can create the life you want. You can manifest your dream, no matter how impossible it may seem. If you have a dream, go for it. Go for what you really want, not just what you know you can get. The resources at your command are truly infinite. Anything is possible."


The passage above is from what I consider to be one of the most underrated books on the mysteries of consciousness and its interaction with matter (the spawn of time/space) published in recent times:





(A few words about its author, Dr. Larry Farwell.)


And there are more of such underrated gems to come.
Stay tuned. :)




A final word from your blog mistress:

You are feeling GREAT right now, right...?
Tomorrow you may still feel some afterglow.
And the day after tomorrow some petty annoyance will make you "face reality" and forget all about this.

That's what happens every time. Doesn't it?
And then you wonder why such philosophies "don't work"?


My friend, fortify yourself in advance.
Resolve NOW to ignore your own upcoming doubts.
Resolve NOW to ignore them day after day.

And THEN see what happens.

Lost (in) time



I have always, even as a child, suspected that there may be something quirky about "time": that it may not be all that it seems to be - or not to be.


But before I discovered the internet, I had no idea that so many other people had occasional... »issues« with time/space. And it took me a relatively long time to google for »lost time« - just to see what would come up (apart from Proust, of course.)

Nor did I have any idea that so many people seem to associate this phenomenon (be it subjective perception or something else) with UFOs and/or with "spirit activity" (scroll down to "lost time").


But the odd occurrence I am about to describe has nothing to do with either "spirits" or UFOs, even if they do come and visit us and/or influence our perception of timespace. That much I (seem to) know.


What exactly it was, I don't know.
You decide.





Salvador DalĂ­, Soft watch at moment of first explosion, ink on paper, 1954.




It happened one mid-afternoon in the summer of 1999 or 2000.

I was waiting, somewhat impatiently, for a re-run of a TV documentary which was scheduled to start about 25 minutes later.


I checked the hour, turned on the TV to see whether there was any change in programming - no, there wasn't (checked it against the printed programming in the TV guides, too) - and turned it off again to do some work at the PC.

As I sat down to work, I glanced at my PC clock and then at another clock in the living room. (Both were always on time.) I opened a document file... and closed it again, almost immediately (certainly before writing a single word) - I decided I was in no mood for work, after all.

So I got up, sat on the sofa and turned on the TV again - just in case... But of course the documentary I was waiting for was still some 20 minutes away, according to both the schedules and my clocks. And obviously there had been no sudden change in the programming; the channel where the documentary was coming up was still showing a different programme, exactly according to the schedule. I turned the TV off. (Yes, I have this mania of never leaving the TV on if I am not watching - sue me.)

So I got up again and went to the kitchen, to have a drink - but not before checking the hour on my monitor screen and on the other clock. (Needlessly - about a minute, at most, had passed - but automatically.)

I crossed the two or three metres that separate my sofa from the kitchen. I opened the fridge, took out a drink, closed the fridge door and went back to the sofa. Still bored, I switched the TV on again... and there was my documentary, WELL under way!
(How do I know that? Because I had seen the programme before, but had missed the first part of it - that's why I wanted to watch the re-run. What I saw when I turned on the TV was the part I was already familiar with.)

At first, I was incensed (at the TV station, for its highly irregular programming - or so I thought). I took the TV guide again, checked the schedule, checked the clocks... and discovered that, somehow - I have no idea how or when - 20 minutes had passed since I last checked the hour.





What happened there?
Or rather... HOW did it happen?

I have no idea.

I do know that it was NOT a »seizure«, as some people are quick to suggest.
I mean, who on Earth has
seizures standing in their kitchen and not even notice it?
Besides, what kind of "seizure" exactly - and I emphasise: exactly, i.e. am asking for a scientifically rigorous definition - would that be, especially considering I had never experienced any before?
(But then, the most »scientific«-sounding explanations are usually the most ridiculous and in-credible ones. The often flippant tone that comes with them doesn't help either.)


I was under no influence of drugs (don't use them), alcohol (I rarely keep even a drop of booze in my home, and that wasn't one of those rare occasions), or any type of medications. As far as I can remember, I had slept normally the night before.

The weather, by the way, wasn't unusual in any way - not that I can remember. (I mention this because an electrically charged atmosphere seems to be much more conducive to time/space anomalies.)

Whatever it was that happened, I do know I am by no means the first, the last or the only person to have experienced this.
There are hundreds, perhaps thousands of accounts of this kind.
To read more about such experiences, go here and here.
(And if you had one yourself, be sure to drop us a line.)

But if you'd rather forgo timespace speculation and invest your time in Marcel Proust's quest (always a wise investment, if you ask me), go here.
It is a totally delightful website; I could not recommend it warmly enough. The time you spend there, or indeed with Proust himself, may be lost - but never wasted.
