There Is All,

All Is Everything There Is

There is All.
All is everything there is.
Everything you know, everything you don’t, everything you can imagine and everything you can’t.
All is the thing that regularly gets named as God, in whatever language the people doing the naming speak.

Love is the feeling we all live for,
It’s the most important thing in our lives.
When we strip away everything in our lives, all the day to day thoughts and worries, we find love.
It’s always there.
Everything in our lives is built upon it.

We live to understand Love.

How many songs do you know of that are written about science, technology, or economics? I would suggest, not that many, this is because music is generally an expression of how we feel, rather than an expression of how we think. Music, if it ‘touches us’, allows us to express and engage our feelings, and if we are honest in how we express and connect with them, we will find they are all founded in love, pure love. We are constantly trying to make the world aware of our emotions and feelings of love, and at the same time, we are constantly trying to keep them hidden from view, to protect ourselves, and as far as can be seen, it’s always been this way. A kind of Double-Feel.
We can write great books about history, science, technology and other aspects of learning, but not great songs, we just can not express ourselves in the same way about these subjects, these subjects require a far more matter-of-fact form of expression. We have to access a different part of our minds when dealing with these subjects, a completely different part than that which we use to express love.
Love comes from the heart, logic comes from the head, or more correctly, love comes from our feelings, logic comes from our thoughts. It is obvious that feeling is more important to us than thinking, that is, truly, deeply important, not day-to-day important, like paying our bills or going to work. But we’ve been conditioned to trust our thoughts rather than our feelings, to place the greatest emphasis on them, as if our feelings are a side issue and as such, don’t really matter. But they do, they matter so much more than our thoughts, it is in fact, our feelings which cause the thought process to begin.
We feel, therefore we think.

The world around us is constructed by the thoughts that we have, and this itself can be expanded by saying, it is constructed by the thoughts we’ve been taught to think. Society is always telling us what to think, it is always laying down rules and guidelines for our behaviour and interaction in the world, in this way, it is always telling us who and how to be. And as we adhere to these rules we become incorporated into society, we become it, we become the very thing we’ve been told to become, then as a natural progression, we begin to tell others how to become society, and subtly and unconsciously chastise them if they don’t see things the way we do and conform to what we and others believe they should be. For if they don’t become what we’ve become, then we assume they are in some way criticizing us, our decisions and our lives. We think they are implying that we are somehow wrong, that our lives are wrong, that our society is wrong. But just look at society, is it right?

There is, and always has been, a great imbalance between the rich and the poor, the haves and the have-nots, some people of the world live in unimaginable opulence, whilst a hell of a lot more people live in abject poverty. Even the people who live in normal, everyday comfort, like us in the west, are immensely more privileged than those in the poorest countries in the world. If you live in a house, with heating and plenty of food, a TV and a nice kitchen, you are living like a king compared to a lot of people in the world, people who struggle everyday just to feed themselves and their families, how is this right? How is this ‘society of the world’ justifiable. It isn’t, but we accept it because we’ve been taught to accept the validity of it. We’ve been taught that some countries and their people are just poor and that’s how it is, that they are somehow unlucky, whilst we, on the other hand, are lucky. Is this a justifiable situation? Is such an obvious imbalance a fair situation? Can it not be corrected so that everyone can live in relative comfort, can the situation not be more balanced if we really want it to be? Of course it can, but we’ve always been taught to believe otherwise, we’ve always been subtly taught to be selfish, to only be concerned about ‘our own kind’, as if they are the only ones that should matter to us.
From an early age in our schools, we are subtly and at times, not so subtly taught that ‘our’ people are somehow better than the people of other countries, that the achievements of this country, our country, are more important than others, and that the digressions of this country are explainable and understandable, and to a degree, honourable. We get taught that in all the wars we, our people, fought in, we were the ‘good guys’ fighting honourably against some evil foreign force, which thoroughly deserved to be killed, by our brave boys.

We have this never-ending fascination with war, as if it’s an intrinsic part of life, as if it’s built in by design to human life; we live therefore we must kill. How did this situation ever come about? When did we start believing in the right of one country, generally the richer, more powerful one, to slaughter another weaker, generally poorer one, for whatever reasons stated. War, as every one knows, only elicits horror, pain, grief, sorrow and loss to those on the receiving end of it, to those involved in it, whilst providing power and vast profits to those far removed from it, those in banks, offices and government buildings. War only serves to decimate populations, to eradicate vast swathes of innocent people from the earth, all in the name of what? A shift in the struggle for power or control, the furthering of a political agenda or ambition. How have we allowed this to continue for so long, why do we still unceasingly support ‘our boys’ as they go off to slaughter a load of ‘those lot’, how de we tolerate and justify this hellish situation? Because we’ve been taught that this is how it is on planet earth, that this is how mankind is and always has been, whilst at the same time being constantly reminded about the never-ending work towards peace on earth, a peace that is seemingly to be achieved by continually going to war.
We have this glorification of the ‘fighting forces’, we call them heroes, we see them as heroes because they are part of a system, a convoluted machine whose sole purpose is to kill other people, and subject others to misery and suffering. And for some strange reason, we do not associate this machine of death, with the slaughtering of others, we associate it with a wonderful euphemism, we call it ‘defence’. And we happily spend billions on it’s implementation, billions and billions spent ensuring we have the capability to kill vast swathes of people, other people, foreign people, people we’ve been taught are different from us, not as ‘good’ as us, not as honourable as us.
But I ask this, how many people do you personally know that enjoy slaughtering other people, that enjoy the sight of suffering, do you have any friends that long to indulge in this blood-lust, people that would happily see other people blown to bits by super hi-tech weaponry, happy to see people dying in ever more horrific ways, revelling in the pain and misery these atrocious wars cause. No-one in normal life knows of such people, but the people of normal life, the taxable bill payers, keep falling for this age old trick, that ‘they’, our enemies, somehow need slaughtering, that it is the right thing to do. We all know, all those with half an ounce of intelligence, how we feel about war, but we keep thinking that it is somehow necessary and natural. It isn’t, but we’ve been continually told that it is, we’ve been conditioned to believe in it, and so it is, and probably, always will be. But if our actions were driven by our true feelings, then every weapon would be laid down, never to be picked up again, they would be dismantled, and their components recycled, and put to use to aid mankind’s growth, rather than its demise. We would never again allow our elected leaders to spend billions and billions on this so-called defence. We would see it for what it is. A power-fuelled money-making atrocity, indicative of everything humanity claims not to be.  
It is our thoughts that allows war to happen, not our feelings.

Then we come to the thing described by some as the ‘root of all evil’, money, the thing which powers human day-to-day life. We love money, we genuinely love it, we dream of it, we dream of having more of it than we already have, more than we’ve ever had, we dream of having so much an amount of it, that it will fix all of our problems, as if there is such an amount. We’ve been told that money is everything, and everything that we want can be obtained with money. We’ve been told that money will bring us happiness, and that happiness is, in a way, dependant on money. We’ve been breathing in the importance of money since the day we were born, it’s in our blood. We worship money like it is a God. We are slaves to money. We live our whole lives with the concept of money looming over us. It controls us. It controls who we are and dictates who we can be.
But money can only do two things; it can buy what we need and it can buy what we want, and once we come to terms with the difference between the two, once we realise the importance of acknowledging the difference between want and need, that’s when money will start to lose its power over us and we can slowly start to loosen its grip on us, to reduce its control over us. To be free of its power.
We need food and water to survive, we do not need technological gadgetry. We only want gadgets because we are told we want them by the companies who stand to profit from us buying them. And these companies deliberately infuse the want for them into the fabric of society, because they know from experience, that we are susceptible to the pressures of living in society. In this way, they are putting a price on the need to conform, the need to fit in with everyone else, but we don’t need to pay this price, we don’t need to conform in this way, we just want to. Society and our insecurity makes us want to.
The state demands the need for money, this is, at present, an unavoidable consequence of living, but the states unrelenting need to keep the amount of disposable income of each person at a constant is a consequence of a power and control by financial means, and taxation enables the exertion of this power. But this itself is a result of a society mired in the worship of money, a system that needs economical permutations and continued financial growth, in the same way that a breathing life-form needs oxygen.
How did we become so in love, so enthralled by, so dependant on pieces of metal, paper or more recently, numbers on a screen? Because we were told that that is how it is, that that is how it has to be, that it can be no other way, that it is the only workable system, and so that’s what we think, and always have thought, we think money is as life-giving as food, water or air. But it’s not, it’s just an invented system, a system that was invented due to its ability to greatly benefit some, and not so much others, but all the same, a system, something which can be changed anytime we want to, unlike the system of eating, drinking and breathing to maintain life.
We need to eat food, we do not need to pay for it.

Work must next be addressed. In our present state, we need to work, but this need is wholly dependant on the need to provide ourselves with money, with which we need to exist as a functioning member of society. But how many jobs would be eradicated if we abolished the need to pay for things? Hospitals would still need doctors and nurses, schools would still need teachers, power plants would still need its operatives, supermarkets would still need people to fill its shelves, and so on. But how many people are employed as a result of the system of paying for things? Can we not, if we want to, eradicate the need to employ people as a result of the exchange of money. Imagine for example, the reduction in the staffing levels of a supermarket if there was no need to pay for things; there would be no need for people to man the tills, no need for office staff to process the money, to process it for banking, there would be no staff needed to pay wages, and so on. We would only need people to ensure levels of stock are maintained by ordering the correct supplies, and a small team of people to place those supplies on the shelving. Now imagine the reduction in staffing levels across all the employment sectors of life as a result of the disappearance of money. This would free up a vast amount of manpower, which could then be utilised in a much more beneficial way for aiding mankind’s growth, as opposed to sustaining financial growth. We could train more doctors and nurses, more teachers, more engineers, more scientists etc. In short, more people would be trained in ways that we, the people of the world, actually need.
But due to the constraints of a finance-based society, this is not possible, and the workforce is, as it has been for too long, stuck in the cycle of working for the ability to pay their way, rather than working for the good of man. Why is this? Because we’ve been told this is how it is, and how it needs to be. But it doesn’t need to be like this, only the people who benefit directly from this system, need it to be this way. And they, to protect their greedy interests, have taught us how to be financial slaves, working ourselves into early graves.

The TV. Gawping at the box. Mesmerised by the tube. Watching, watching, watching, even when ‘there’s nothing on’ to watch.
Everyone in the modern world, barring a very few, watches the TV, and most people watch it semi-obsessively, planning their evenings around ‘what’s on’. Sitting there in their chairs, on their sofas, in the same sedentary position, hour after hour, watching their favourite programs, followed by anything else that will do, sometimes sitting there watching things they don’t even like, rather than doing something else with their time. Why? What is so appealing about watching another version of life, another different representation of it, be it a fascinating, fantastical, inventive version, or a more mundane, commonplace, everyday version of it. Everyone seems to love the little stories it weaves for our eyes and to some extent our minds. Rather than the TV being the amazing conduit for information or entertainment it has the potential to be, it has become more akin to a security blanket for most people, grasped every time they have time on their hands, something that provides a soundtrack to their, in-the-house lives. For some, it is turned on when they walk in the house after a days work, and only turned off when they go to bed, it is, in reality for too many people, a very useful way of getting through those hours when they don’t have anything planned to keep them occupied. It helps to relieve the boredom of life. It helps them to pass the time. But why would anybody want to pass the time given to them in life? Isn’t life worth living? Are there not a myriad of things with which people could spend their time doing instead of watching TV. How many people sacrifice the chance to have hobbies, interests, pastimes and pleasures, for the ability to sit, night after night gawping at a screen depicting other people engaged in hobbies, interests, pastimes and pleasures, all for the viewers apparent viewing pleasure. It’s a bit like wilfully choosing to watch life pass you by. It’s a bit like saying ‘look, look at how good life can be’.
So why does it happen, why this worldwide, mass addiction to watching life go by? Because we are conditioned to believe that because everyone does it, that that is ‘what you do’, we are exposed to it as children in the houses we grow up in, and so we replicate it in the houses we now live in as adults, and so, we are more than happy to teach it to the next generation, citing that ‘if it was good enough for me’ and, ‘it’s what you do’, in this way, no-one thinks to question it. Why would they, why would anyone question something which is so ingrained in each and everyone’s conception of society; a norm.
Unfortunately, as a consequence of this situation, too many people rely on the TV to tell them all they know about life, some people know nothing of the world they live in unless it was gleaned from watching TV, and as result of this, they become dependant on it, it becomes a de facto friend, something to trust and believe in, and so they never think to question it, they never question the veracity of the news programs they watch, they believe everything the TV tells them, they never question their addictive, dependant need to slavishly watch the TV, day after day, night after night, they merely reason that if everybody else is doing it, why shouldn’t they. They never stop to question all the time wasted sitting in front of the TV, and all the possibilities that time could have afforded them.
But people do not need to watch TV night after night, not if they don’t want to, they can choose anytime they want to, to turn it off and do something far more interesting and fulfilling instead. They can choose, anytime they want to, to live life, rather than to watch it.

Now the big issue. The really big one, the one that will just not go away, the one that comes and goes, ebbs and flows, but is always there, always in our lives. The belief in God, or, the disbelief in it.
Everybody has God in their life, whether they believe in a higher force or not, whether they pray to it, sort of believe in it, don’t really believe in it, or think it’s a load of silliness. Very few people can honestly say that God plays no part whatsoever in their existence, it’s the one subject we all seem to have an opinion on. Throughout all of mankind’s known history, the question of its existence seems to have enthralled people and caused endless debate, and, if the truth be told, endless trouble.
The first point asked about God should be, what is God?
God is a human invention, that should be obvious, based on the knowledge that everything we’ve been told about God has come from the minds and mouths of human beings. Everything that has been written about God, was written by the hand of a human being, every aspect of what we know about God is as a result of the human interpretation of its existence. There is no part whatsoever of the God story that is not the result of the work of a human being, therefore, it is not naïve to say that God, by definition, was wholly invented by human beings. The God we know of, is the God of human beings. We created Him.
We invented this God, as it seemed to be the best fit for our model of life and everything that is, what is behind everything that is, what created or caused it, and what eternally sustains it. In short, it explained a lot of what, at any given time, was unexplained.
But as people gained more information about how the world works and its various causes, our unwavering belief in God started to waver, and more and more people started to doubt the existence of a higher force making everything happen. We no longer blamed vengeance for the rains failing to come, we no longer feared anyone’s anger when lightning struck, we could instead, rationally explain these once remarkable things by way of scientific research and deliberation. We then started to ‘thank God’ for science, and for taking us out of the dark, by enlightening us with reason. As, no doubt, did the people who would have previously been selected for human sacrifice.
But in spite of all the acquired knowledge and all the amazing discoveries through the years, God stuck around, and the scientists found that no matter how cogent their findings, no matter how many mysteries they unravelled, no matter how far they delved into the cosmos, or the atom, God would just not go away, his hold on the human psyche was far too strong, no more so, then when people felt especially weak and in need.
But as science progressed, God evolved, he went from being the fearsome, judgemental, at times insecure, all-powerful force of the universe described in the books written about him who loves all who believes in him, into a sort of buddy who can be called on whenever necessary to sort out everyday, mundane human problems. People started to believe that God, as long as he was believed in, and occasionally prayed to, could be evoked, put to use, then sent away. He could be called upon to cure ailments, fix social problems, help in business affairs and so on. He apparently could also be relied upon to turn a blind eye to the digressions of those who believed in him, as long as they truly believed in him. In time, God became the sort of God who fitted in exactly with the moralistic double-standard nature of humanity. He was there when the righteous people needed his blessing, and he looked away when the same people committed sins. A spiritual win-win situation. It started to seem as if God was created precisely to serve the purposes of humanity, whatever they might be at any given time.
The concept of God seemed to evolve at precisely the same pace that human beings evolved, fitting their spiritual needs down to a T, which makes perfect sense when you understand that everything we know about God comes from human beings.
But the truly great aspect about the concept of God, and it’s usefulness to humanity, is, it’s all a matter of belief, and therefore cannot be conclusively proved nor disproved, no matter how great or sparse the evidence, which means, in essence, that every single human being can be right about God, whilst at the same time being completely wrong about God, it all depends on what and how they believe, and as such, each individual argument cannot possibly be argued with. A simple and unprovable ‘truth’.

 
Which leads nicely on to the most important part of life, the most important part of everything that is or ever has been, the Truth.
Every believer in God must be prepared to believe in Science.

Every believer in Science must be prepared to believe in God.
And everyone should be prepared to be wrong.
Then and only then will your mind be open and ready for the Truth, whatever the Truth may be.

But when we make that decision, the decision to embrace and live the Truth, when we decide to stop allowing excuses to be a viable option, when we stop blaming others for what is clearly the result of our own actions, when we stop running from what we know is right, we are forced to ask some very searching questions of ourselves…

What do I want?...
Who am I?...
What is my life?...
Why am I the way I am?...
What really makes me happy?

And it seems that no-one wants to face up to these questions, no-one wants to look inside themselves for the answers to these seemingly difficult questions, not after years and years of ignoring them when they came to mind from time-to-time, not after years and years of contentedly allowing themselves to be given free passes that allow themselves to ignore these immensely important questions.
These questions can only truly be answered with one type of response; the Truth.
And there is nothing more frightening to people than the Truth, for they have lived their whole lives running as fast as they can away from the Truth, as everyone does.
Facing up to the truth, is the greatest fear anyone can face, and that’s why so many people are happy everyday to accept and live in the lie, the lie that is everyone’s life.

So what is the Truth?
The Truth is Love.

Everything that is, is made from Love, it is the force that makes everything happen, it is the force that has always made everything happen, and always will.
It is a force of such power, we cannot comprehend it, it is the force behind every other force, the thing that powers everything.
It makes matter, it makes life, it makes feelings. It makes and is everything. It is All
We humans think we know what All is, we think we can describe it, but the truth is, we are a billion, billion, billion lifetimes away from understanding even the tiniest part of what All really is, our race will have long departed this reality before we even come anywhere near to understanding it. It is not God, it is far, far more than that simple human concept. No human will ever be able to understand what All truly means, we are just not capable, we are just not built that way, no being can understand what All is, only All can.
But we can understand how Love makes us feel, we can embrace Love and live our lives by the lessons it teaches us. We can be Love, because we are Love, it’s what we are made of, as everything is.
Love is how we feel All, it’s our connection to it, and we are never separated from it, it’s always there, inside us, a part of us, all around us. It is us.
All is everything that is, all the good, all the bad and everything in between.
All is all the matter, all what we can see, and all the things we can’t.
All is all what we know of existence, all the things we are yet to know and all the things we will never know.
All is all the life as well as all the death.
All is all the feelings, all the thoughts, all the memories and all the imaginations.
There is nothing which is not part of All, even nothingness.
But more importantly to us, All is Love, and Love is All.
And that’s all we need to know.

When we start to live life according to the principle of Love and all it can give to us, then we start living, really living.
Living to live, living to love, not just living to get through life.
Living life as it was meant to be, a life of fulfilment and a life of Love.
A love for life, all of life and everything that life is.
No more guns, no more violence, no more fighting, no more hatred
No more greed, no more starvation, no more selfishness, no more divisions, no more us and them
All of life as one, living together as one.
This is what Love can give us, and will give us as soon as we embrace it, as soon as we let love guide every action.
It’s the only Truth, and we all know it, because we can all feel it
We can all feel Love, because we are all Love, because Love is All
Because everything that is, is a part of All, and All is Love
You don’t need to believe this, it’s not a belief system
You just need to feel it.
You just need to look inside yourself, and see how you feel
You will feel it, it’s impossible not to, because it’s what you are
You are the feeling of Love, made by the feeling of Love, made to feel Love by the feeling of Love, for Love is all there is, for Love is All.

Why do you live? To be happy. What makes you most happy? Love
This is the Truth.
When you know the Truth, it all becomes so simple, so obvious.
That’s because you’ve always known it, it’s the Truth you’ve always known, it’s the Truth you’ve always felt, the Truth that you are.
The Truth has always scared us, because it is so powerful, this is why we run from it, it is the most powerful thing we know, it is all we know.
The Truth is Love and we are Love and Love is All.
And that’s all we need to know.

This is the message, this is what’s been trying to be told for ever
The message of Love, the message that we are all Love
Everything that’s ever been in humanity’s existence, has been leading us to this message, teaching us about this message, making us ready to receive and understand this message, all the lessons have been leading us to this, the only Truth, and now we are ready.
When you truly understand this, you will know, and when you know, you will never forget, you will never forget the Truth you always knew. And when you truly understand, you will know why everyone knows as soon as just one person does, for we are one, we are the same thing, we are all the same one thing, we are Love, and Love is All.
I know this, and I know that if I know it, we all now know it, for I am you, you are me, and we are everyone, all of us, just one thing, Love.
We are all representations of, examples of, little parts of the only thing there is, All. And All is Love
We may know this, we may know what we are, we may know what Love is, but we will never know what All is. We don’t need to, all we need to know is what Love is, and how it makes us feel, for when we feel Love, we know we need no other feeling, it is all we need, for Love is All, and that’s all we need to know.

I am the lucky one, I have felt All. I’m the one who knows.
I have felt the most indescribable feeling of purity
A feeling which cannot be described, a feeling that is beyond any words a human has or ever will have, our words will never be enough. They weren’t meant to be, this feeling is not the realm of words or any human communication or system. This is pure, it is the realm of reality, of the Truth, and only our feelings can comprehend the Truth, only our feelings can comprehend Love, only our feelings can feel All.
I have felt All, and as soon as I did, the very instant I did, I knew.
I knew exactly what it was.
The Truth was never clearer or more purely defined, absolute purity, absolute clarity, absolute. Everything. All.
I felt everything, every thought, every feeling, every experience I’d ever had, I felt it all in an instance of feeling.
My whole entire existence condensed into a singular experience of being.
And it was all wiped clear in the presence of this brilliance, all dissolved into irrelevance, nothing was anything when faced with this, it was all blown away, and I was shown the Truth.
And my life was shown to be shameful.
My life compared to this, absolute pure Love, the Truth. All
How I cried. I cried the most beautiful tears, I never wanted to stop, I could have cried forever, I wanted to.
My life and this, the purest purity, the purest essence of Love.
All
There are no words, all my words of description are meaningless, they mean nothing, they don’t even begin to describe the tiniest element of this, they cannot, and never will be able, no ones words ever will, words will never be sufficient, they are too limited. Words are from the mind, this is not, the thing I experienced is far beyond words or humanity, it is of something we will never understand.
But we don’t need to know what it is, we don’t need to understand, we just need to know Love, and that’s all we need to know.
We are Love, and Love is All. And we all know it, because we can feel it, it’s us and we know it, we just don’t know it.
But we will, because the message is out, and while one person knows it, then we all must know it, and slowly but surely, we will all remember the Truth we’ve always known.
The Truth that has been readying itself to be known
The Truth that has been hinting at itself for so long, giving us clues
And now we are ready, ready to feel it, ready to feel the Truth
So feel it, don’t listen to me, feel it, don’t read about it, feel it, don’t believe in it, just feel it.

It is you.

​It is the Truth. It is Love. It is All.
