We all have a unique and individual expression of our being embedded in our dna. And some part of it is also inherited from a cultural conditioning behaving as a connection to a cultural past. When it unfolds in our spontaneous expression of being it will have its own pre-established way of presenting itself as imagination.
Its in our blood. And it is really not in the physical world. The struggle we have with this are within ourselves.
It also constitutes an individual form of danger when we by a collective, by corporations or governments, without a connection to our being allow ourselves to live out all kinds of interior worlds of imaginative self interest onto other people. We will then become a danger both to people, and to the world.
What we are doing to each other then, to this otherness, is trying to mirror and replace the within in other people, with that of our own, and then try to morally justify our actions by the submission of other people. As if a loud voice or forcefulness was an argument in itself.
And if they do not agree to this. We bring our war to them.
This will now become our world.

About collective regression
When we were forced to believe in what was written down, and not in what we hear and we can see, we were also forced to separate our physical life from the experience of our transpersonal life. Our imagination were taken from us, and we got driven out of our selves and forced to replace it with someone else’s perception of being. It is still happening to us. We are still living with this collective threat on individuality everyday.
The doubt this creates is what separate us from our beingness, and that is what make people so confused.
Who owns imagination?
The reluctancy to change comes from our unwillingness to give up any existential ownership of individual imagination.
The father of our civilised world
Imaginary speaking, I find myself living in a society which is compelled to act this figure in the cloud out with the ruling it has over everybody´s apprehension. They don´t seem to know it, but they are supporting him by continuing his old formal character, making his outworn presence felt in everyday life in terms of rules and regulations, in dogmas, and in a distant dead behaviour coming out of it. They are upholding a system of absence in their lives by trying to fill themselves up with a sense of responsibility and duty towards social and religious convention. Which they also force onto others. They believe in some principles of normality. Not in the experience of transpersonal reality. And nobody seem to be questioning this cloud figure rulings there. They just see themselves as a single part of his organisational maintenance.
It is almost incomprehensible what this is doing to them, and to our environment.
His tyrannical madness is what makes them all crazy.
Mother nature
She is the growth and eternal renewal of all life. She carries and nurture the source and generative power of life. She embeds it and cares for its forms coming to life. It is the very spirit of life which is brought to her for her to carry. And she is what makes it all possible, because she brings whatever shape given to her, its physical body. When they are given to her she will nourish them. She will provide for them, and she will care for their wellbeing. Without her there would be nothing, our physical life will not exist at all. Life will no longer have its beingness. It will disappear from the source of individual life.
Life will be deprived of its purpose, it will have no meaning.
Citizens of being
Can we allow ourselves to live our life from the inside out, following the nomadic life of within and its impulses. Or do we choose to live our life from an imaginary outside mirror constantly judging us by some principle of normality that we are not?
This is the inside war of our individuality. Here is my battleground and my rage.
It is a terrible war of balance. A fight for my life.
About authority
We seem to have mixed up senses about what the meaning of power and the meaning of authority is. Power is the sun, the growth of nature. Authority is the interconnection of all life cycles beyond individual life. Authority is that existential knowledge which cannot be transferred from one person to another. That which has to be learned anew by each and everyone of us, by ourselves, alone.
Authority is respect for that which will help us on our way.
The reality of being
”In the spiritual sense of reality you’re connected to everything, you know you’re connected.
But in the religious perception of reality, you committed a crime for being born, and in order to be – to justify being here – to get to stay – you had to submit yourself to an authoritarian system. You had to submit to the male dominator chain of command.”
— John Trudell

About being
We are a civilization about to drown in our own mental waste.
About our personal double
We have been led to believe that we have to use a substitute for ourself. A not us to be used as a separate personality, and to be lived out as some kind of a non-connected representative of words rather than the experience of what we are. An attitude to be expressed as an alternative to individuality outside of our true being as an adjustment to how we think others want to perceive us. But even if we then somehow believe it is us, it is still going to behave as something separate from us. No matter how hard we try to convince ourselves otherwise, it is going to generalise and depersonalise our actions in the world we live in as that other. And by using it in that way, we will then come to blame an act of what we are doing on the role we are playing. Even if our actions still are our personal doings.
It is quite telling when people do awful things to other people or to our earth, and then look completely dumbfounded to the responsibility when confronted with it.
They don’t even sense it as something of their own. Its that ”other one”, the surrogate personality.
It has become a separate personality acting on its own.
Maybe, its true or proper use is to help us personify all that we have of that inside of us, which can act as us and be as us from within, and make that better known to us in its own rights through our energized experiences.
We seem to have more in common with the aboriginal stomp dance in the light of a campfire than is apparant to the eye.
Inequality creates crime, not poverty
And if you look at it the other way around, this will show that where crime rate is high, there is a lot of inequality.
Authority Experiment
This testperson is our views, our beliefs, -isms and political ideologies.
What if they are our leaders and the person submitted to the electric shocks are us.
Conformity Experiment
We are that testperson, and the others are our beliefs, our views, -isms and political ideologies.
A base of reflexion
Do you think that’s air you’re breathing?
It is not we who imagine, but we who are imagined.
The mind is in the imagination rather than the imagination in the mind.

About power
When we as individuals confuse knowledge with power, we magically exaggerate our importance in relation to our self with the unconcious capacity for wisdom.
This creates the true sense of the word evil.
Revolt
All revolt is important because it leaps out of time and bring our image of history, or permanent truth, into a personal sequence of transition.
History is an attitude
I am caught in the present history as a problem of attitude between father time and eternal youth.
The inferiority complex game
Is Trump completely out of it playing the inferiority complex game helping his counterpart to strengthen his position by exchanging the threats he uses to drum up support for his sense of significance to his people.
No matter which version used. They are both working the same complex on their own people.
Are people really that stupid?
Indigenous knowledge from the north
”There is knowledge that cannot be acquired through anyone else. It cannot be transferred from one person to another. Every single person has to recognize it anew within himself. And by himself go through the trials that surround it.”
Ruota landa
I find it interesting that the finnish word for Sweden, Ruotsi, or Ruotti in meänkieli originates from the mythological Ruotta, meaning plague. In sami, Rota/Ruotta is a being thought of as evil and harmful to us humans. She resides in the underworld Rotaaimo or Ruota landa. It is where people go if they don´t live according to the gods will. She is the queen of the abyss and a tormentor of humans and livestock.
It is quite telling.
Participation mystique
“Most connections in the world are not relationships, they are participation mystique. One is then apparently connected, but of course it is never a real connection, it is never a relationship.”
– C G Jung
”In a situation of participation mystique, the locus of the guiding will and consciousness is, in a way, outside and separate from the individual members of the group. Like a colony of ants or bees, each member is directed at an unconscious level by patterns of behavior that flow from the organizing structure of the colony itself, rather than the individuality of its members. In fact, in participation mystique each member becomes like an appendage, or cell, to the larger body of the group. This can create a mystical high for those who participate in it (hence the name). However, participation mystique is also the underlying mechanism of mob psychology. Its overall result is a decrease in the level of consciousness and autonomy among the group members. The individual’s perspective is suspended in favor of a group consciousness (or lack of consciousness, to be more exact).”
The expired father
Imaginary speaking, we find ourselves acting out this figure of a heavenly father ruling over our apprehension. We are supporting a sky god character that has long since expired by continuing his formal character and making his outworn presence felt in everyday life in terms of rules and regulations, in dogmas and in dead ritual behaviour. We are upholding a system of belief by trying to fill us up with a sense of responsibility and duty towards social and religious convention. To something of the past. But by questioning his ruling, we might become something more than just a single part of his organisational maintenance. We have other ways to experience inner life as individuals.
We can actually become sensitive enough to become humans.
About public acknowledgement
Like all kind of extremists we seem to believe that we need public acknowledgement to exist. And then we get stuck in an outgrown historical setting of ideology and religious beliefs trying to make up our minds. Thats why people knowingly or not, tends to shy away from politics, old -isms and organised religion. People don’t need that to have a living connection to themselves today. Authorities, coming from the outside, from society, tradition, convention and scriptures, with its habitual and literal beliefs no longer provide any correspondence to our immediate personal experience of the here and now. People are looking elsewhere to find the answers to their needs. They are listening to the awakening voices from inside themselves.
The sense of place
When we are on vacation, or watching a mesmerising sunset, hiking or spending our free time outdoors, we get a sense of being, of being close to nature and of belonging to a place.
That sense is also what is lacking if we do not balance up our rational mind with this experience of true identity to land in our daily life.
It is a poor substitute to have a disconnected rational view of patriotism, or an ideology’s false sense of land, replacing the true personal experience of an inner sense in relation to a place. That inner sense is what we share as individuals with everyone else. Our true identity is not any combinations of collective identities like sex, race, social class, vocation, nationality, or religion. What we really share is that inner closeness to place, a true sense of being it. Of nature in ourselves. If we disconnect ourselves from that personal identity which is derived from this one context, we also miss out on having a true relation to land. We will start to look at it in a one sided rational way, and in rational concepts of ownership as in ideology, nationalism or religion. Or just as some infinite resource to fuel the growth of market economy with.
A consequence of this is that we are loosing our sense of being in ourselves. Of being in a true relation to a place. We are losing out on the essence of our relations to each other. And to life.
Victim addiction
It is almost too obvious that people like Trump and extremists of all kind, appears as childish victims to us. It is all about opposites, separating everything into either of two extremes. Unconscious about it they retaliate on everything they perceive as the threat they must provide themselves with. They have become addictive to the process of having aggressors. And by trying to turn others to agree with them by oppression, they create their aggressors if they do not agree. Everything in their world circles around this polarity. Victims and aggressors need each other to exist.
And this is what media exploits. Its not a healthy symbiosis.
Loss of self
When a person loses his or her direction of the self, he falls into a pattern in which he or she attempts to separate everything into two opposing extremes (i.e. good vs. evil, true or false, ). Also, this person will try to always agree with one of the extremes. Doing so creates tension and stress, as this person seeks to continuously either try to prove his or her opponent to be incorrect. This person will also try to convert his or her opponent to accept his views. If this person cannot convert his opponents to accept his or her views, then he tries to oppress these opponents. This reveals this person’s need to control others who are different than him or her-self, as well as his or her fear of those who are different than him or her-self. If this opponent chooses to react to this oppressor, this opponent becomes a victim to the oppressor. Soon both the oppressor and victim need each other to exist. This creates an unhealthy cycle of abuse which leads to death and little (if any) soul development, as the thought processes of both the oppressor and the victim become addictive.

About fate
”The irony of fate is that, what I don’t recognize as coming from Me, will be served to Me, as fate”.
43
Wounded by the mystery
who hovers over life
I see insanity
The devine
in the blood
of antique syllogisms
Prisoned in the seals
of our love
A nightmare poured
on words
With sweetness
beyond the possible
42
Having sensed
some strange thirst
For the unknown
From the far depths
of your being
From your private
and hidden riches
I am the Past
That you must release
An Idea,
a form of Being
Looking for the light
36
The place where I am not
Of stillness
My self-involvement
or a crowd of people
How could they all be one?
Walk inside us
With given sizes and shapes
I reach into my mouth
to find diversion
It does not reply
33
It is a moment
worth the name
And an unearthly woman
Dreaming
That moves us in here
Suffering
and mute things
And every night
we breed our sins
in her breath
Together
With everything
that gives us our nature
Q and A
Question:
What do you want from me?
Random answer:
In vain your hand glides
so it sometimes seems
Nature still remains
a deeply gnawing mind
delicious sadness,
anguish and living hope
29
The moves
of existence
snares my senses
And leads me
to the rhythm
Of reality
and fatigue
To the black skies
somewhere
Out of this world
23
A voyage
within my mind
Towards the horizon
My dark compelling spaces
Behind the unknown
I pass their magic
at every window
As if a small machine
had entered
Each in separate dreams
22
This is the kingdom
The new neighborhood
that plays for itself
In each simple thing
Like the alphabet
one moves
Across the blackness of the past
21
Smell the air!
The cold nights
Come,
let us drink
To the last of our tears
My shaken spirit
sings to me
in my dreams
20
Hold on
to your dark wings
Those of us not asleep
count on your strength
19
It is in the small things
we see it
The hunger
that is not body
18
My blood
is an angry army
On the edge
of the cultivated
dark unseen
Painted on the morning grey
16
The outside world came in
like a stolen hour of nature
Looking for faults and flaws
in its goings and coming back
I rise from the inside
Of a distant past
15
There are moments
that cannot fly
Through the windows
of old houses
So we run into ourselves
until the break of the day
10
Being beyond the ledges of the concrete
the obvious
With unreality
drifting in
From the roots of a lost breath
that tells me all I know
Nobody really believes me
It is strange
Om minnet
Med minnet återskapar vi hela vår värld. I detta ögonblick. Hela tiden. Här och nu.
Genom minnets oavbrutna upprepningar i återskapandet av våra individuella upplevelser, får vi en värld där den yttre världen och den inre psykiska världen blir en gemensam integrerad helhet i medvetandet.
Detta pågår ständigt och överallt, inom oss och över oss. Det är oändligt.
Med vårt språk skapar vi sedan meningsfulla symboliska behållare för våra personliga erfarenheter så att vi kan hålla kvar dem över tid.
Det är det här vi kallar mening, och det är här allting får ett sammanhang.
Vi kallar det stundens ingivelse.

Another day is breaking
so quietly intense
Up, up into the sun
Like father, like son
i come to greet you
in disobedience
7
I am my own to me
Using up the darkness
in the mirrors of this room
Yea, I am one with all I see
in this
Do you agree?
I can hear the bright bee hum outside the window
6
Drifting out upon my dreams,
on a blade of reason
The light, the shade, the flowers
both young and very old
What do you have for me this morning?
5
I enter’d, from the clearer light
Leaving right and wrong
upon that element of truth and worth
A still small voice spake unto me
I am waiting
