Human Birth Right - Photography, Poetry, and Writing by Philip Seidenberg

The Analogy of Fog

Inside the cloud of fog indirect sunlight illuminates space in all directions as it's blocked, reflected, and redirected by water particles and cloud droplets. Underneath the fog's canopy it's dark and cold as a result of the absence of direct ligt from the source. As the fog burns up through the increasing CONCENTRATION of heat and light energy, the sun radiates through the haze to show its location. As it does, heat energy from the sun begins to warm the surface of the Earth. The fog becomes doubly bombarded with heat from the direct rays of the sun from above, and from the Earth's convective heating from below. The cloud of fog is caught in between heat energy from above and below and begins burning up exponentially quicker once the source of energy is exposed. As the fog burns completely, the light is clear, the source is known, and the connection is direct. It is out of the fog that we progress into the conscious light. It is an exponential jump in consciousness acceleration once the source of light is exposed. It is darkly, confusingly, and blindly unconscious when the source of light is blocked, reflected, skewed and redirected.

Wherever your place is in the cycle of fog, it is your birth right to emerge into the conscious light. You don't need to know what you want, commit to living a conscious life, or possess an understanding of your spirit to partake in the emergence of your birth right. All you need is a small space of openness in your heart and a child like curiosity that inspires you to wonder where the light comes from. You don't need to conceptually understand or hold awareness of the varying layers of reality to connect to the source of light, you merely have to increase your CONCENTRATION onto the openness of your heart, and to practice being in it to increase the flow of light.

Its not about possessing a place of power or being a leader over anyone through this process, its about neutrality, for the birth right belongs equally to all. Those in the fog have not found the source of light, but the light is equally theirs. Those in the fog have not found their choice, but the choice is equally theirs. It is about love, compassion and learning from all; those in the fog, those accelerating their consciousness through a glimpse of the light, and those living fully in the light.

Those experiencing and embodying the ohm state of mind and present time consciousness still have learning to be done from those in the fog. The isolation and separateness of those in the fog is but a reflection of our own separateness as a human race. It is as much an imperative for those above the fog to reach below and pull upward as it is for those below the fog to reach above and pull downward. Oneness stretches infinitely in all directions and the collective experience is valueless for there is no measurement in the space of the heart, the space we are evolving into, our human birth right. There is no one special group inspiring this change as our collective consciousness chooses to express itself through our unity and our separation.

As part of our human birth right and as creators of reality it is important to tolerate and value the various levels of consciousness existence in the present, rather than to reject and rescind separateness and ignorance to the past. Emerging through ignorance grows love and appreciation for awareness, thus, ignorance itself has inherent value and should be loved and tolerated equally as a place of being as part of our human experience. If we are all one, than we are all what we collectively experience. Having the strength to hold hands through the fog while offering support, tolerance, and compassion so that we may all experience the collective human birth right of clear and direct connection to the source is the greatest catalyst for uplifting the consciousness of our world.

Love exponentially greater everyday.
