A New Member of The Malleable Light
Hi there,
Thank you David for inviting me to join in on this site. Thanks also to Emmy and Renate.
I’ve found The Malleable Light a splendid tool for maintaining my motivation on Astral Travel & Lucid Dreaming and I’m excited about joining the team
.
My spiritual interest has always been present even as a small child. I did loose focus for a while as a teenager but rediscovered the search in my early twenties. I would call myself highly philisophical and desire to further understand what we are doing here on this planet Earth, and for that reason I also desire to further understand what it actually means to be alive and aware. This world we live in seems governed by an Intellegence and I desire to understand it and our role in it.
I first encountered Lucid Dreaming in about 1998 giving me a resonable depth of experience on this topic.
I am a virgo sun sign, turn 32 this month and am a mature age university student in my final year of a Naturopathic degree. Interests outside of meditation, AP, LD etc are sport (all types), health (hence the naturopathy) and music.
I may at times post experiences of Lucid Dreams or Astral experiences but find experiences from my everyday life and insights I gain through life totally relevant and worthy of mention on this site. When my insight feels deep and effects me profoundly, either energetically or spiritually, I shall post these experiences here also.
Please do not take what I say as Truth, however what I post here will be my Truth as I perceive it at the time. I am human and am simply offering my opinion and experience.
Thanks again to David & I hope you enjoy reading what I have to offer.
Peace be with you,
Dean

Hi Dean,
Thanks for the kind words and it’s great you have you on board. I know you will provide great content.
You are absolutely on target when you suggest that people should not take what you say as the truth. It seems that so many times I see people stating things as Truth and then even worse, people accept it as truth without question. People do indeed have to find their own truth and contrary to what others may say, I doubt that anyone will ever find the ultimate truth, at least on while on Earth (although I may be wrong! : ).
I am just a localized manifestation of everything I see around me and whatever is around me is um well I don’t know. So what does that make me?
David,
I do not know?
I believe I am an information processing unit that stores memories, has experiences, has senses etc. Why all the facilities to process this information and store memories… Don’t know… To Evolve?
I believe what I am now, is dependent upon my experiences past (possibly other lifetimes & other forms), my responses to these experiences, and the understanding I have gained from them.
I do “believe” myself to be intimately connected to something greater, or if not greater, then connected to the quantum field – Either way I think I am talking Great Spirit.. I believe I possess part of this Great Spirit within me (and it is only belief & not knowledge – maybe it’s not knowledge because I’m a skeptic – but skepticism is healthy in moderate dosages).
There seems to be rules governing this level of existence and my desire is to understand the rules and why they are there..
Can I ask what makes you believe you are “just” a localised manifestation of everything you see around you? What about the things you can’t see?
What does a localised manifestation of everything you see around you look like, what does it think like, feel like? I’m sure you’ll agree that you are much more that what you can see
What then are you? A conglomeration of all things?
I’m not sure… Perhaps something greater..
We are talking about the Ultimate Question here…
Peace,
Dean
@Dean Keune
Perhaps I should have just used the word “universe” instead, however I hate using that word because then people start thinking “galaxies and stars” and I believe there is so much more (just like you say) that we can’t see.
I was basically trying to say that I believe the universe is a collective consciousness and that I am a localized (normally isolated) manifestation of that consciousness.
I believe that I exist as a isolated unit for a very good reason in that the universe is collecting unique experiences from billions if not an infinite number of beings such as myself as perhaps a creative outlet or for some high purpose that I don’t yet understand.
So yes, in my current version / theory of my existence I am actually part of the collective and am the collective all at the same time.
Perhaps this collective is a isolated unit of it’s own experiencing what it’s like to be an isolated collective and then it’s part of a bigger collective of collectives and we then enter into the infinite loop.
Just a thought.
Exactly along my thought lines…
Just wanted to welcome you to the blog, Dean. Looking forward to reading your entries.
