This is another question for those who answered my last question. Can I ask you something else?

Question

I'm curious about another part of that quote.

"...he will experience the reality and uniqueness of as many other aspects of reality.."

"uniqueness of as many other aspects"

Is this implying that uniqueness is retained or is it implying that uniqueness is encountered as you are "swept along in a gestalt of comprehension"? Or both? If uniqueness exists at deeper aspects of oneness (paradox?) then should we also be capable of retaining it there?
And what about those 'aspects'. Are these aspects other dimensions, or are they ways in which something can be viewed by the mind, i.e., 'he looked at all aspects of the situation', or both, or something else?

Take your time.~sip~

Answer 1

It is about the unlimited nature of the Universe, in that without the microcosm, the macrocosm cannot exist. Within the Oneness of us all, within the Tao, we must DARE to be different. Just because we comprise this Oneness, this ALL THAT IS, does not mean that our individuality must be lost. It is our very uniqueness that makes the All That Is so special. This gives YOU the opportunity to be different, to shine a little brighter, to enlighten. Our differences are what keep us united. Because within our differences, there is at least one, maybe two vibrations, maybe more, that resonate with another unique being. And these resonsances bring us together, piece by piece. Our souls, our spirits, if you will, maintain their individuality while harmonizing and resonating with those of like mind.

As far as the dimensional issue is concerned, I have no doubt we experience many different dimensions in both our physical existence and our experiences that occur beyond the physical.

Regarding the uniqueness of other aspects: I believe this is referring to our ability to only perceive limited fragments of light, color and sound in our physical reality. When we move beyond the physical, we do not have to mask the totality to explore and experience the vibration as we do at the physical. We are unlimited, so we can experience the vibration in its totality. We are harmonizing with the external nature of our Life Force. We are unconsciously knowing, touching and experiencing our soul. There is no limit to dimensions at this level of consciousness. There is simply the All That Is.

A bit verbose, but it is the best I can do.

EDIT: ((((((Vicarious)))))). Perfection.

Answer 2

The many other aspects to me means the Universe is peopled with such a variety of personalities, beings of such a different nature than us, unique to there own sector of the Universe. At the risk of appearing 'out there' I will say that on a conscious travel out of body, I encountered two 'non-breathers who live in close proximity to Earth. This was a mind opening experience unlike any other as I got a 'glimpse of the uniqueness of another aspect' of reality. Not like another dimension, but like I visited another location away from Earth which was quite real. This experience came before I started reading The Urantia Book, which by the way, blew me out of my limited perspective when it mentioned a planet of non-breathers living in our sector of the expanding Universes... Quite a book indeed!

Answer 3

Shihan1, a person after my heart! You know that our individuality is not loss, for if such a thing could occur, the ONE would suffer loss. Our individual uniqueness is our relationship to the whole, it is what nurtures the whole into knowing thy self. The ONE knows thy self through us, and the ONE supports every part. It's like a shards of a broken mirror.

In the beginning their was no experiential knowledge, individuality is what drew souls into internal division, so that each whole while growing into its individual completeness would thereby resonate with the others in becoming perfect embodiments of that in which they abide within. True oneness isn't in a collective, although we share a common DNA (so to speak) and a common source, we are each holographic parcels of the whole - neurons within the mind, co-creators. The greatest problem is the fact that people believe paradoxes are bad. But I say one whom can hold a paradox in their mind is truly a genius, in the fact that they know from a higher perspective there is a third force that makes it one. What this means is that every duality is in actuality a triad! We need not pick one over the other, oneness exist and so does individuality.

EDIT: Others know too! Points below.

Answer 4

i do not think there is a paradox - if we 'lost' our uniqueness, where would the soul of the Oneness be?
it is because we ar many within the Whole that the Oneness is as vibrational as it is.
i would not be mys'Elf if each part of me was not so special.

the other aspects are the other individuals' perceptions of reality, after all, we each have a unique mind. when we can 'tap' into that combined consciousness is when we "experience the reality and uniqueness of as many other aspects of reality"

Answer 5

Words are ineffective to describe a mystical experience.

This is true for Seth's words or yours or mine or anyone who answers this question and anyone or work that they quote.

Every being is unique. The Universe is Unique. Uni = One. This means that every being is an individual while being part of the Whole.

Without the boundary separating each of us from the Universe, we perceive the Uniqueness. When the boundary is allowed to present itself again, we perceive the uniqueness of our-self and everything else.

The aspects are perhaps the individual perceptions of reality of which we are aware. This is not readily understood by the logical portions of our minds because it is the logical mind which makes us believe in "portions" and "parts" and "aspects". There is only One. That is Reality. Reality is not understood by the mind, so the mind creates "aspects".

Answer 6

I tend to think they are actual realities, actual other dimensions, some of them only fractions apart from the one we are mostly focusing on. At the same time I'm sure that what we see depends on the person looking at it.

But there has to be an underlying *truth* also or else, amongst all those various experiences of different people, we would not be able to recognise the common ground.

And yet we do.

I have noticed that people who have had some mystical experience in their lives easily recognise it in others, regardless of their religious background (or the lack of it). There's no conflict between such people and yet, they may have very different explanations, descriptions and names for their experience.

Answer 7

I am not certain of course but perhaps it is the uniqueness that is encountered and the aspects are other dimensions (I am very familiar with this) and also ways in which something can be viewed with the human mind...both...frankly though, I am not one to be overly philosophic I am definitely a direct experiencer, usually a mute one too...words cloud the issue, words are a virus that lies...

What you sipping? ha ha!

Answer 8

Sometimes, I encounter a chasm too deep and wide for me to cross. Rather than attempt to 'comprehend' why, I have learned to circumvent around it with new ideas. Some fail but none are fatal as yet. I have divine protection on this journey. I proceed as wisely as I am capable and learn as I go. My base is not as deep as others because I need to keep my way simple enough that a child may follow where it leads in relative safety considering the perilous pits where it began.

Answer 9

Uniqueness and aspects. To see beyond myself I have to die to my ego and momentarily loose my uniqueness. The more I do this the more of my uniqueness gets to go with me. Uninspired darkness that we think of as ego that separates itself from God by pride dies. When you die to yourself some parts of your uniqueness dies but not all. A totally evil person will have no memory of their previous life after being reincarnated. The more you’re a creature of love the more you’ll retain of yourself.

Aspects are the points of view that the common spirit of humanity experiences in each of us. Like a cut gem with many facets we are each an aspect of our common self.

Answer 10

im not sure what you mean
but i can tell you that
the many are one
and the one is many
the many and the one are not two

its a fundamental principle
of time/space
that everything is unique
(watch the movie pi)
its about pattern recognition
thats kind of a key
the one and the "uniques" dont cancel each other out
if you understand what im getting at
they exist simultaneously
because they are different aspects only

part of the confusion comes from the implied "observer"
which creates an "object"
the dualism of thought
