Introduction

I lost consciousness once and I remember that people were busy around me. This statement is contradictory to say the least! Yet it is the experience that almost every person has who has this type of experience following an accident of any kind, the so-called near death experience (NDE).

In my case I was barely seven years old and I was under a car from which I got up and from where I walked home some 60 meters away, with the broken femur, repeating over and over again. who wanted to hear me: my leg! my leg! I finally collapsed.

I was not then clinically dead or at least I imagine. Still, I was witness to a hubbub around me. This event undoubtedly triggered the idea of ​​"life after death" and of a long and slow journey, a suave quest for the meaning to be given to this observation. I hardly ever told anyone about it because I didn't make a big deal out of it and at least one person I knew was totally an atheist and materialist described to me an even more explicit scenario than mine that he had experienced in a serious car accident where in addition to his own life he almost lost those of his wife and children.

It is only now that it comes back to me at the untimely end of a night's sleep that actually ended with this surprise. It must be said that I have all my time for such an impression to sow in me the idea of ​​thinking about it barely awake.

It is not nothing to have all this time because it is perhaps the realization of a key moment in my existence. I always feel like I've never been quite in my body, to the point of finding what is called life often downright absurd, to the point where I've basically always been rebellious, unable to fully function. as was required of me, as much as of my peers. And this is perhaps my great misfortune because I have always been flabbergasted by the ability of others to comply with what is required of them.

The fundamental question has always been more or less this: what is the point of all this? I do not think I am very original with this type of questioning but most people do not especially want to ask it and those who ask themselves often end up putting an end to their life or sometimes fall into fanaticism. So how did I get through the pitfalls of this absurd life? Well, precisely because I found my answers. In fact, they were given to me like a mother bird give food to its chicks, as my mother would have said. I was sort of extremely lucky because just eight years after that car accident, I was being taught most of what I needed to know, like a seed. It's up to me to make it fruitful.

I even rebelled against this revelation, this apprenticeship and it took me almost 50 years to come to terms with it, that is to say accept it. All my progress during these 50 years will have served to test in every way what I learned from this auto mechanics teacher who the previous year had kicked me out of his course several times because I despised him and disturbed his classroom. This is to say to what extent we are sometimes wrong.

I come from a so-called Catholic background and unlike my sister who the previous year frightened me with her training in cathechism, I was part of the first post-Vatican II cohort, the one that was going to move from cathechism to cathechesis. At the time I was so enthusiastic about Church and religion that I became an altar boy! It must be said that my father also served me as a model because he was involved up to his neck in the workings of the parish, to the point of being the project manager of the construction of a new church for our parish of The Good Shepherd, the aptly named. The culmination of my involvement was undoubtedly the mass dedicated to the fiftieth wedding anniversary of my grandparents where obviously then ten years old, I was assistant to the parish priest, a parish priest whom I admired, like an affable and stout father with a deep and gentle voice. However, I gradually lost my interest in religious matters and eventually moved on to other activities. 

This rite of passage is however not trivial and it is with hindsight that I realize what this period was like. When I was eight or nine I was allowed to leave home to go and serve mass. The church was about ¾ of a mile from my house. Then I would just come home soon after. I was made responsible and I took responsibility without knowing it. This notion of responsibility would not have occurred to me. It was quite natural, like a small animal that must learn to live in its environment. It didn't occur to me that I had to be responsible. It's innate. But that's what we humans say socially: empower ourselves. Besides, seeing parents today accompany their children everywhere, I wonder to what extent the notion of accountability would not have lost some of its meaning. So much protection.

I'm more of the technician type and my questioning is always one of the purposes: what's the point? This is the case with the meaning of existence: what is it for? Because seeing my entourage gesticulate, I can only ask myself all the time, what is the point? Humans are utterly hopeless. I still haven't figured out why most of them do what they do. I'm not going to dwell on that. It has little interest. It's not something I want to understand after 50 years. Obviously I understand that very well. I know everything there is to know about the functioning of the human species at the beginning of the 21st century. This is why it is not very interesting, even boring in the end. Childish. And It is thanks to a great serenity that I can moreover overcome all the heap of everyday absurdities which I witness helplessly. In this I am no better than anyone. "There's nothing we can do about it".

Back on topic. This early experience of awareness of existence outside the body served as a stepping stone for my subsequent existence. Well, I didn't jump very high. I mostly hovered. Besides, I had a friend at one time called Justin Plané. Just in Plane. Most of my life I have been doing it. I did what I was asked to do. Without much conviction. I had to exist like everyone else. In this I have no originality. I do not try to distinguish myself as a great scientist. What I know, what I perceive is a slow process. And if I were to charge a fee for this apprenticeship, it would be in the order of a million dollars an hour. After all there is 50 years of research behind it.

In leaving, let's say that I'm not too interested in the reflections of a certain Richard Dawkins for whom all the evolution is only the simple fruit of chance. In this he and the neo-Darwinians are laughable. They have made a hypothesis about which they have no proof. It doesn't hold. I am resolutely closer to Anne Dambricourt, paleoanthropologist at the Museum of Natural History in Paris. It was through a radio interview that I discovered her a little over 20 years ago and what she said will serve as a basis for explaining what I have learned in parallel. Her research is the keystone, a beginning of scientific understanding of what is the evolution of life and of the different species.We can't limit ourselves to that, but scientific advances in many areas should use her research to establish a better understanding of how the whole works. I had the pleasure of spending almost a week with her a mere six months after this radio interview 3000 miles away.

I have an analysis grid, an analysis grid, let's say cosmic for short, and everything must be gauged against this grid otherwise it does not work. As I wrote above, I am a technician and the notions of spirituality, religion, science are an integral part of my approach. There is no incompatibility between notions of spirituality and notions of science. There is complementarity. I am pushing the envelope to say that everyone is right and that no one is entirely right. We must show intellectual humility in all areas which is not I might say the turf of individuals who flounder in various affirmative and presumptuous ways in this world. 

I don't claim to have the whole truth at all, only the truth, nothing but the truth! This is my vision based on this original knowledge, followed by study, research, observation and reflections on human beings through anthropology, other social, spiritual themes, etc., as well as other aspects of life through what we call the natural world. This acquired knowledge is in a way the other end of the telescope: how does it work from the point of view of the Other Side and not that of the material world. Things take a whole different perspective. This is for you to gauge the plausibility of what I am putting forward.

These words are not scientific as such of course, except that I will always try to maintain a basis of rationality in my explanations. They also cannot claim to be 'scientific' in the sense that they cannot be proven at this time or that everything I write can be scientifically verified as such. However, if we consider many scientific fields we can consider the speculative nature of science. New knowledge comes to alter what we believed to be final and to open the limits of what we call "scientific truth". Quantum physics, for example, makes assumptions that are increasingly inaccessible to the layman that challenge scientific certainties that were previously consideredthen like truths. Very little is scientifically sure now. So it should be as well with Darwinism and evolution of species as dictated by this approach. It makes no sense and nothing of it can't be proven and has never been.

This blog is dedicated to all people who want to 'think outside the box' and to those who are looking for sensitive explanations of our presence in this world.

PS If I choose to introduce as the search keywords "suicidal tendency" and "suicide", it is only to try to reach those who are at this stage of their life. The purpose here is to help you understand that your situation or mine or that of anyone else is a construct of the mind that needs to be examined and revised. Suicide will only bring you back here, exactly where you left off ... It is essential that you work on your journey differently. This blog will try to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Where do we start?

Where do we start? I guess it can be said that we can start from anywhere, for everything is linked and must make sense overall.

The universe has many dimensions. We live here on Earth in one or two or three of those dimensions: plane, surface and volume. But that doesn't say much and we all know about those three dimensions. They also exists in other levels. So we can't count them so much as "dimensions". We thus live in the material world. We also live in other dimensions/planes most of us can't see while living in this material world, only feel. Anything we do here is "copied" at least in one other dimension/plane. In fact in all other dimensions/planes. We can't get away with whatever is happening to us down here whether of our own making or imposed upon us as it is the case with the other dimensions. We are quite responsible for what is happening to us. Why can't we see those other dimensions? For some reasons, among them to not influence our current situation.

Although we have our free will it does come not only with liberty but also responsibility. We can't get away with anything. It's copied elsewhere. So eventually we will have to answer for our behaviour out here or on any dimensions for that matter. How? Well not as 'punishments' or 'sins' but as infractions with sanctions that are consequencials to our deeds... whether "good" or "bad" and we can't escape from them. I will discuss about those aspects later on because the subject matter is vast! Let's say for now that the notion of "karma" is partially what it is about.

Our lives "down here" have some interesting aspects that we don't find as such in other dimensions... The material world makes converge all types of people. Our mandate has always been to make this place a... paradise. We have missed the point for sure. This interaction of all genres of people helps us determined where we fit in. On other plans we won't find ourselves with either the most illuminated mixed with the most criminals and everything in-between. Only here. And on other plans or dimensions we do not choose personally that we belong to one or the other. It is our level of "behaviour" that determines where we should be. We have no say as such in that regard. Our free will all along makes us be where we are at. If we want to be in the most etheral, pure, peaceful, etc. places we have to act in order to reach those areas. Otherwise we get stuck in where we are as long as we do not consciously wish to move on. In some instances it can take the equivalent of hundreds of earth years before we realize this and wish to move on because we think where we are is where we should be. It's a construct, a personal one. And we get along well with our fellows in where we are because we fit it. Not unlike what is going on down here, except that we are not evolving much by staying in one level for hundreds of years... Furthermore, we must move on at one point or the other because everything in the universe IS movement. If we do not wish to move on we will lose the right of being. It seems contradictory that we have no choice and that we do. More explanations about that later because it is another vast subject!

Nothing is new in what I advance here. Everything or almost everything I am going to write has already been said or written by the prophets of the past, whether he is called Lao Tseu, Mohamed, Jesus, Siddharta Gautama (Buddha), Moses, Zarathustra, etc. I only intend to be straightforward. It wants to be a guide. Many aspects of what I will write can be found in all the scriptures, dialogs, etc. Some of what I will write will just all of a sudden makes sense. I have a responsibility towards you here. I am not going to discuss things or advance ideas that I am uncertain about without letting you know. In fact, there are many aspects that I still struggle with. So you have to make your own decision concerning what I propose. As I wrote it is my perspective of things so far, after more than 40 years searching for plausible answers. I am just sharing for what it's worth. For me it is worth a lot! It is logical and plausible. For the last 40 years I encountered quite fluffy stuff and people that did not register on my scale... You are allowed to be skeptical ! I am a no nonsense guy.

Messengers, religions, sciences, spirituality

Most people don't take the time to think by themselves. We are raised, have an education but either are unable or too lazy to put into questions everything that has been transferred to us as knowledge. Thus generation after generation we act as we are told.

Churches have agendas, not hidden for most of them, just agenda. By churches I mean religions and even science. We are in competition to acquire the most adepts to our view. I went through all this myself. It is quite confusing and frustrating for someone looking for answers.

Most religions exist because at their source was a Messenger, a prophet, etc. The message they convey was pure we could say. But men, (men  and women) have always tried to reinterpret the original messages to fit their needs or their own agendas. None escapes this situation.

Not only is it confusing trying to find out a sort of truth in all those words but it becomes also ethically difficult to act in such a way that we feel at peace with ourselves about our actions. Today there are very few instances where what is done is ethically acceptable let alone perfect. The way we live in the material world is incredibly stupid and dangerous. Not much resists to a careful analysis of the way we ought to exist down here that is IN LINE with a spiritual endeavor. It is as if we even oppose living by taking into consideration any spiritual alignment. We are totally blind.

The light at the end of the tunnel

Metaphorically indeed that light is more and more difficult to see or even perceive. We are bombarded by all sorts of information that at the end makes not much sense when added up. We could argue that all that is written and said is contradictory and quite confusing. By orienting our thoughts towards a spiritual basis, everything becomes clearer.

We must take action down here to make life sustainable for all species. We've always fought the natural world, especially since the so-called Enlightenment, (French siècle des Lumières: literally “century of the Enlightened”) and positivism. We have replaced any notion of spirituality by notion of matter/material. Yet they could have worked hand in hand. We thus go on a fool's errand with a blindfold.

It is very simple to grab. It doesn't require a PhD. Anything we do down here that is not in conformity with the highest levels of spirituality is... wrong. Thus about everything we do is wrong because we are unable to follow simple rules of conduct to evolve spiritually. We prefer spending our time in cars in traffic listening to music on the radio while the world is crumbling little by little around us. 

And yet it is still pretty clean down here compared to what's going on just across, on the Other Side, at the fringe of this world in the so-called subtle matter, the heaviest of the ones we don't see from down here (and down is just a way to mean heavy in a gravitational sense) At the edge of the Other Side everything that has been done or THOUGHT by human since the beginning of time is combined. It is an inextricable world of madness. If one is to not stay long in that area one has to start behaving accordingly while one is down here where it is possible to extricate oneself from the madness going on the Other Side right next to this very material world. If one is spiritually advanced one will go through that area without worry. But if not, one is in big big trouble, depending on its spiritual evolution.

On the Other Side at least in the first part, everything is a construct, a personal construct and a social construct, not unlike here on earth. That is we don't have to live the way we do down here if we don't want to. We are fabricating our own journey with the tools at hand. In fact it is not difficult to observe different ways of living down here from region to region. People live differently in, say, Africa (or used to live differently I might add) than say in Europe or anywhere else you want. All this is a social construct which is the result of the thinking of individuals forming a collective and living in a given way. This is also happening on the Other Side. Down here you may wander at will from one place to the other, visiting, exploring or living. On the Other Side though you will have to live where you belong. There is no escape. That is why it is paramount to achieve a high degree of spiritual level. Only through spiritual awareness will one be able to move on little by little depending on the effort taken to move on through spiritual awareness.

On the Other Side it is clearly not enough to be just a law-abiding citizen because laws are man made and thus imperfect and full of loopholes. On the Other Side there are laws governing which are the same universal laws everywhere. Here we can do away with most mishaps but on the Other Side we just can't. We are feeding our own landscape, literally, through our own deeds. It all appears cool because that is the way we want things to look like. But it is not the way it would look if one was to pay attention to the workings on the Other Side. You won't get far and up quick if you insist on staying the way you are. You won't even realize it. It could take centuries for the most stubborn to move on and evolve. And the amount of money you have in the bank down here will not help you at all. You can't bribe people on the other side without going through the consequences. You'll be stuck there until you realize that you are going in circles...
