Resistance is futile.
Star Trek fans know well that these are Borg words, always spoken just before they assimilate their victims into the "collective."
I've been pondering the deeper meaning of this phrase, and of resistance in general, for some time now.
Anyone who has studied martial arts knows that resistance gives power to the other side. Wise people know, often at an unconscious level, that emotional or mental resistance creates the same thing. When we don't give our opponent anything to fight against, when we simply melt away, he or she falls forward and flounders.
In an electrical circuit, resistance creates a backup in the flow of current, and doesn't allow all of the current to flow through. (Note: I'm planning to do more learning about electricity, as I have a hunch it will reveal quite a lot, metaphorically, about other energy flows.)
I've experienced that pain, both physical and emotional, is simply resistance to something we don't want in our lives. And our ultimate resistance in the body, the ultimate fear, is to death.
What if resistance is an inherent part of living in a physical body? I have come to understand that we begin as beings of energy, bodiless, a part of All That Is. I don't know what kind of consciousness exists then; I suspect it is the ecstatic communion of connection with everything that exists, not aware of any separate existence. Then, it seems, we choose to become physical. "Where" we find ourselves then, upon being born, is a function of the energy frequencies on which we have chosen to focus (karma). Coming into the human physical plane seems to mean forgetting that there is no time, forgetting that we are creators with the power to instantly manifest matter simply by manipulating energy frequencies. We choose to experience separation from the whole, and spend our life resisting absorption back into it.
Hold on, resistance is futile!
That's right. The connection to All That Is is always there. In these human bodies, we have the illusion that we are separate, that we will "die" when our physical body disintegrates...and while it's true that the specific DNA that I am made of will never exist again, the energy frequency that is "me" is what attracted and created that DNA, not the other way around. Closer to the truth: the physical matter that is I is different at every moment, and where I choose to place my focus shifts the DNA at every moment. So I'm "dying" and recreating myself moment by moment anyway. Death is an illusion, part of this beautiful fable we've created so that we can play the game of separation from All That Is, so that All That Is can experience itself from billions of different perspectives.
Is resistance simply fear?
What happens, then, when there's no resistance? Is it possible to be in a body without resistance, or are we just giant electrical circuits with energy channeling through our atoms and cells until they finally burn out? Do people who live with less resistance live longer? This, however, starts to go into questions of destiny and life purpose.
We all seem to have resistance to energy flows in various parts of our bodies, based on patterns we carried in our soul's energy frequency before we were born. These patterns must be connected with why we are here; when each type of resistance (fear) can be seen, acknowledged, and then released, a new energy frequency comes in with slightly less resistance than before.
It's as if some of us are more open to a higher "voltage" coming through and have a greater capacity to channel (allow) All That Is through us. Others are in resistance and burn out quickly. Everyone's capacity is different...does this depend on our own resonant frequencies? Are those of us who are extremely sensitive or fine-tuned able to handle more energy than those on a grosser, more corporeal level? I don't mean this in any judgemental sense of some being "better" or "worse," any more than I would say a peony is more beautiful than a maple tree. I would add that I don't really know what it means to be sensitive or fine-tuned, and I have a sense that each of us has a higher level of sensitivity when we are in tune with our own integrity.
It seems that the level of resistance manifests in a physical way via the DNA we choose. It seems likely that DNA is simply the tuning device that our soul's energy uses to bring our bodies into material existence. Bruce Lipton and others have demonstrated that we can change our DNA with our thoughts. When we truly choose openness, in integrity and with every cell of our being, and we discard the conditioning of our "past," it seems we can then reduce resistance and create a body that is in harmony with our own soul's core frequency. Many things on the "outside" conspire to trigger resistance in us: chemical pollutants, stressors related to overcrowding (noise, lack of perceived space, lack of access to natural life), energies coming from those humans who have chosen to live in lack rather than abundance (guilt and all its associated emotions). It takes an individual with strong energy to CHOOSE to remain open and hold that core energy of light and love in the midst of lower-level frequencies. I hypothesize that the way to access this strong energy, that we all possess, is to stop wasting energy resisting who we really are. It takes a phenomenal amount of energy to hide or reject parts of ourselves. And this is key: accepting every part of ourselves, without going into a frequency of judgement, means accepting every part of All That Is, without judgement. In this holographic universe, what is inside is outside. I have a little bit of Gandhi in me, and a little bit of Hitler.
The Mother, partner of Sri Aurobindo in Pondicherry, India, spoke of experiencing a golden energy that is present all around us but not tangible to most. My sense is that we humans are all beings of light, capable of so much more than we know. Scientists don't know what a huge part of our DNA is for, and so they call it "junk." Quantum physicists like Nassim Haramein are now demonstrating that there is an infinite, nearly untapped energy available in every tiny speck of existence. Is this the golden energy that the Mother experienced? When we reach a level of no resistance (or nearly none?), when we are living in total acceptance and openness to what is...when we get out of the way and let energy flow through us, then perhaps more of our DNA is activated and we have access to the infinite abundance of the universe.
Resistance is futile. This doesn't mean, however, that we will be assimilated--we already have been. Each of our unique selves is a part of All That Is, and has always been so, and will always be so.
(I won't get started on the subject of time...at this moment...)
Wonderfully said. As I read I realized quickly that what you write here could easily be a book report so to speak of so many different things I have learned during the past few years of hypersynchronicity learning curve. A few of my favorite passages:
"the energy frequency that is "me" is what attracted and created that DNA, not the other way around"
"It seems likely that DNA is simply the tuning device that our soul's energy uses to bring our bodies into material existence"
"we can change our DNA with our thoughts. When we truly choose
openness, in integrity and with every cell of our being, and we discard
the conditioning of our "past," it seems we can then reduce resistance
and create a body that is in harmony with our own soul's core frequency"
"I hypothesize that the way to access this strong energy, that we
all possess, is to stop wasting energy resisting who we really are"
"It takes a phenomenal amount of energy to hide or reject parts of
ourselves. And this is key: accepting every part of ourselves,
without going into a frequency of judgement, means accepting every part
of All That Is, without judgement. In this holographic universe, what
is inside is outside. I have a little bit of Gandhi in me, and a
little bit of Hitler"
"Resistance is futile. This doesn't mean, however, that we will be assimilated--we already have been (are/Am/never not was)"
And finally, in the last paragraph the question is posed, what is that golden light? What my mind has come to learn lately, but my heart is yet to fully reacquire the experience of is that the Golden Light is the direct result of fully accepting all parts that are me/Am, even the ones I presently think I am ashamed of or am fearful of, etc. Over the weekend I watched Saw III and 30 Days of Night, two of the most disturbing slasher films I have ever seen. As hard as these kind of films are to watch, what I am completely convinced of is that the Creator that we are co-Creators with sees every experience, even the most dark and vile in our 3rd density estimation illusion, as a joy and pleasure to experience, while remaining completely unmoved from Faith, Hope, Love, Peace and Joy. To the Creator, there is no bad thing that needs fixing before it can all be good again - there is simply us, free will agents, being allowed to take it all in any way we wish on our way to returning to what we really never fully forget.
There really is no separation - just the construct providing for a very strong illusion catering to the free will of the agent/entity seeking that dark place of separation and then pretending like it is something happening to them/me. The layers of illusion on illusion on illusion are vast, but who we really are always remains constant in spite of the self-prescribed vivid dream. Response-Ability is the road home to the place we never really left.
Adyashanti does a wonderful job of sharing this type of info - I think I will look him up again to get a refresher course again. Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz is a very good analogy of all we are talking about here....

Greetings Realfood
Above piece on resistance is right on point and I truly enjoyed your position.
Appreciate your input here and would like to hear more ...makes perfect sense to me....I enjoy reading others that
express feelings and positions that resonate with my own....I guess we all do !!
Thanks again
Blessings

Realfood,
Wonderful, thank you so much for posting these thoughts, Several of them seem to be meant specifically for me at this time in my life and are much appreciated.
Welcome and keep writing,
Namaste,
Jim
...to be writing freely, from the heart, about what you know you know you know? Thank you for writing to us here, where we all not only 'get it,' but appreciate what you have to share. Welcome to the fold...
Pax, Lux, Agape- Deb
As I sit here this Friday morning with a light workload at my desk, I have the exquisite sounds of Jonathan Goldman's "Chakra Dance" dancing/resonating in my mind and heart from memory of listening to it again Wednesday night while reading Secrets of the UFO by Don Elkins and Carla Rueckert while weeping from the so beautiful message that is so well conveyed from this 1977 compilation of experiences and common messages to us here on earth (I will attach a PDF copy of the book in this post for those who would like a copy for downloading to their computer).
My memory was resonating strongly with the 2nd song on the CD which corresponds with the 2nd "orange ray" sacral Chakra because, I believe because it is a kind of awakening as one transforms to the 3rd "yellow ray" Chakra or "Manipura Chakra" or
"Solar plexus chakra" which corresponds with the 3rd density experience we find ourselves primarily in right now, the first level of self aware consciousness.
The reason I bring this up is because of why I think the 2nd sacral orange ray chakra song is so strongly resonating with me right now. It could very well just be a very personal experience (all true experience is nothing but very personal anyway, LOL), but I felt strongly led to offer the experience by attaching this particular Jonathan Goldman offering here in relation to this forum.... What struck me strongly is the feeling of awakening it seems to convey, a feeling that relates very well to all that is happening right now on planet earth, at least for those seeking such experience, seeking to expand and grow as was always intended.....
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, especially the last 3rd where it feels like the sun is breaking through the clouds of illusion and misunderstanding and you don't know whether to laugh or weep, so you do both as you feel the sensation of all that may have been troubling you wash away forever.....

Love and Light to you and yours Elizabeth. The boiler plate you have been using to preface your posts lately is so appropriate for what we are to be learning here on earth right now. Made me think of the place I am in in Secrets of the UFO where Don Elkins is sharing some testimony from 3 subjects that go back in regression hypnosis to past lifetimes that are from other worlds, albeit, similar to earth in many ways, but much more advanced in the concepts of using much more of the mind to create "things", and amazing temples with priests and students that beam Love and Light throughout the universe with the well-developed discipline of unconflicted and unbroken Loving intent mastered through many generations of practicing the art of Love/Light Conscious intent.
The vast majority of all of Creation already operates in such a manner. There are a minority of STS elitists still doing what they do since free will is unceasingly honored regardless of what each wishes to experiment with in this Love (intent)/Light (action) inviolate construct, but service is the true law, and all, including all rogue STS groups and entities, shall ultimately conform to how all of this works so beautifully, for it shall be even their desire to do so at some point in their spiritual evolution. They, like all of us, will naturally want more than what STS elitism is offering, and the only way forward from there is the art of service to others, the unassailable nature of Creation of One.
Secrets of the UFO is as amazing as the Law of One material that came four years later. In fact, it is so similar that I was sorely tempted to consider the possibility that Don and Carla had simply created the character known as Ra from the Law of One sessions, but would be very hard to believe they are in to deceiving their readers just to get an oh so very common point across, the point that so so many visitors from other worlds/dimensions have been trying to get us to embrace for tens of thousands of years now. I fully anticipate the dam bursting on this information fairly soon now, including the very real possibility of some level of mass landing in some interdimensional capacity, maybe even the kind that only those who want to engage/receive our neighbors from all corners of this vast universe can see, and the rest are honored as those not yet wishing to shake up there illusion of life to that degree.
There willingness to share info with any of us and offer guidance that does not violate free will is so very commonplace - has been the way things work for so long now. And we on earth are so late to the party, LOL.... When one truly understands how safe and how powerful they are as potentially fully functioning members of this awesome universal community of One, one is (at least most) naturally inclined, when fully realizing the magnitude of that safe place they truly exist in, to beam out nothing but positive thoughts, beaming Love and Light throughout a universe that understands that above all other intentions. They are so ready to welcome us and so wanting us to remember, to understand. All conflict and strife will so simply fade into nothingness when we do....
Love/Light, Chris
p.s. oh, Berry, here are 3 and 4 you requested from that same disk, Dance Chakra
I'm thoroughly enjoying Secrets of the UFO...thanks so much for posting that, and Jonathan Goldman's sounds, as well.
You said, "...maybe even the kind that only those who want to engage/receive our neighbors from all corners of this vast universe can see, and the rest are honored as those not yet wishing to shake up there illusion of life to that degree."
I'm coming to understand that we all "see" exactly as much as we're ready to see. It's a question of how open each of us is to All That Is. The more I'm willing to accept and love every part of myself, and the more I get that I can't really figure out what's going on via the information that comes in through my body-bound five senses, the more moments of grace come that are openings. I have to be willing to give up my ideas about who "I" am and what it means to be human in order to be open to something more.
I have spent many years of my life outside my home culture, and one experience that was especially strong during the first three or four years was that I came to understand my home culture so much better through the eyes of the one where I was living. In many ways, I learned more about myself than my hosts...and that came from being willing to adopt different ways and see myself through their eyes (as much as that was possible...) This is also true with cultures from cultures other than human ones.
We all get to choose our own version of reality...and I choose service and love and intense curiousity about this universe and the beings here in it!
Love from a snowy and beautiful Bonn,
LeAnn

So glad to hear you are enjoying Secrets of the UFO. As for the Jonathan Goldman "Dance Chakra" disc selections, when I first heard them, all I could think of was how cool it would be to walk into an XTC-laced rave and hand that disc to the DJ, and then watch the happy faces loving one another dance as One to it.
There is so much to look forward to in all of the nows to come! I cannot wait to experience time in a more fluid 3 dimensions like is mentioned in Secrets of the UFO. All we have is now, and that is infinite......
I believe Dewey B. Larson (RS Theory) is on to something!!!! I will attach pages 127 and 128 from Secrets of the UFO here on this post to show a very interesting phenomenon featured in the book concerning, or at least relating to Larsonian physics, something that happened with some pens that moved by themselves to form two very interesting symbols, and then the definitions given from two contactees.
Love/Light, Chris
p.s. we are experiencing record breaking snowfall here in the Northwest - the stuff school's out dreams are made of, LOL
