Man Map
In this section, we would like to portray our attention to man's canvas at the individual level, the level at which you deal with painting your reality by cultivating portions of the female philosophy within yourself (your Frame). Everything that happens collectively starts at the individual level. There can always be some hesitation or barrier self-created on a personal journey. This barrier comes in the form of thought /fear manifesting into reality when we begin searching into the outside world/our consciousness for help or protection with apparent lack for the individual who partakes this quest of self-discovery.
This is quite normal on the path, but we need to emphasize that this notion of fear can create a paradox. The belief or fear that we have of the outside world comes from a fear-based reality from the inside world. This fear-based notion can magnify from a simple thought of “will I be looked after, and will I be supported on my inner quest.” This lack can come into reality without considering that the mere fact that we were placed or born into this planet was for the individual personal transformation. The fear-based belief that you need to change or fix the world or others around you to change the self invites the notion of your fear to change.
If you understand that change can’t harm you, then you will realize you won’t need to change anyone around you. If you fear to change, you will operate on the same frequency or sphere of activity and attract people's situations or things that will be fearful of change also, thus living life or territory that rule and control unexpected turn. If we welcome change within our personal development, we will be invisible to anything we are not in vibration. (Like attracts like). Just understand you are creating the scenario you are afraid of and honour your creative powers no matter what dial you are tuned to.
This great quest that used to be known or restricted by few numbers of people has grown into a global effort and is publicly displayed through open-source format, just as the spirit has brought to our attention in these volumes. In the journey of self-realization, the inner life of the soul takes the lead before all outer practices, the invisible/spirit above the visible/science below material. A man connected to his version of space understands many mansions above, share the benefits of the earth below. The choices made between himself and humanity are left in the hands of the Great Spirit. Love you as you would want to love another, the Great Spirit created you for yourself, perfect the body the outward window of the soul as you would see the father as perfect in heaven. Reproduce divine perfection of the soul/inner child as you would see realization birthed from the mother and catch a glimpse of the whole.

Let’s open the self-way readings and the element of earth with this key phrase: If we plan on entering any relationship to take, we are mostly digging two graves. Whether it be with us or outside of us, the reality of any relationship can sometimes be used to fill that emptiness or that missing piece of the life puzzle. In any relationship, be business or with a partner and that someone asks for help, ask yourself first and foremost if you can help yourself in the process while accomplishing their expectations and goals. This system can help us apply sufficient boundaries as we enter to give and be in service. If there are any judgments caused by poor reasoning or insufficient knowledge in the relationship, it can be easily forgiven if we dare to admit them. Take a look at the stars; they align themselves the way they want; when you make an error in judgment and impose anything on anyone, act like a star shine on lookup rearrange our projections to be kinder and bring down your heaven on earth.
We don't make our relationships; we appreciate what we see in them. We would perceive that the relationship of hell can be something that we have just been carrying around with us, not the link you have entered into, whether it’s intimate, sexual, work-related or friendship. We can do the best thing for ourselves to drop our bags to throw our cards on the table, be completely honest with ourselves, and offer ourselves relationships with love, peace, and friendship. People who have been harmed harm people and themselves. This harm can come in the form of social, economic or even parental, to name a few.
This has been passed down to each person taking the burden or responsibility of transcending the past through generations. The great news with this situation is we're closing the gap. All of us who have forgotten our mistakes and have gotten the courage to let them go is soaring to new heights, breaking the chains tied around the trauma chests and opening these areas, and creating treasures.
What we call mistakes or judgments can always be a choice; the 2nd or 3rd time a similar unpleasant situation arises, it’s a pattern running our same old fears. We can transcend our fears by feeling those thoughts; fear can be felt as anticipation expressing the point of graduation day, coming closer to us or us getting closer to it. Every time we move through a barrier self-created, we transcend that template in us, the rest of humanity and the earth.
The choice can be ours; of course, we can transcend things by non-compliance or even leaving the situation we created to process it on our own or somewhere where we can feel safe to do so. If, for some reason, you don't feel safe, you and the other party can’t accommodate the situation that arises regardless of the mirror people places or things are holding to you; just remember their reflections, and they come in and out, you’re not the reflections. Once we have acknowledged the cause and effect of our actions or decisions to move on from the situation, then we can find the free will to do so, finally letting go of what’s been hurting our heart/soul. You may find that just that alone was the most courageous decision in that now moment. The choice you have made for both parties to truly love yourself and let the past reflections and the other person or event go can anchor significant self-worth templates and boundaries.

The essence of our transformation may not be about transforming the other but more about embracing our self. We can all be students and masters here; everyone can teach us something we know nothing about (forgot). The ultimate test of a person can be to learn from everyone; true mastery may not be about mastering others but about mastering our past. When this mastery becomes solidified, the world can offer itself to the one who stops looking for more. The work of love can then prepare the ground and anchor the body in which the fruitful seed can fall. No person owns the wood in the forest or the waters in neither the river nor the soil; no person can hold from the earth or the air we breathe. We did not make them. Treat these gifts well, even in better condition than when we first borrowed them. The earth and space may set no value in the material things.
With this next key solidified, we can see that constant change can be the only thing regular in life. The more we become aware, the more we can shed what we have learned from our daily activities. Our minds can become clean and free by previous conditioning. What we think we can become, walking in awareness. We descend to the earth through the mother to receive a rebirth by the spirit, to be born again. This signifies the assimilation into the blood of life (Spiritual River), the very seat of every action. The self can strive for results, the complete union of spirit and matter. The mastery of the spiritualized soul transformed into an instrument of divine service to all of the kingdoms. You see, we need a physical body to access the records; the body can be seen as the access key fanning out and encompassing all planes, times and dimensions of life.
This concept can be known as living within a multidimensional reality. When we see life as sacred on the kingdom of earth, then all can see the same. When we begin to choose growth and the stability of life by focusing our mental rays on this planet, those rays can open the dormant inner sense awakening direct action soul to many souls, all leading back to the one. This baptism can only be achieved on earth where all five elements exist and are known in the heavens as the elixir of life, earthly purpose, and earthy signification. So the big question, how do we build the temple? From the process of renewal, restoration, and growth that makes all genomes, cells, organisms, and ecosystems resilient to the natural fluctuations and events that occur on this orb human-made or nature created, they are the same. Some may call this system or key the Morphogenesis of the human soul, the transformation of individuals by the social ideal of thoughts offered as an example to humanity.
A balanced relationship with all the elements can give the capacity for consciously making sense of all things, applying logic, verifying facts that are presented, moment to moment. A balanced male frame can change practices and belief systems as new or existing information becomes readily available with reason. Whether the info seems mystic or intuitive, the elements can help cultivate the infinite expression of word power awareness and action. A new social alliance can be portrayed universally and sustain life everywhere, starting right from the physical temple on earth for man and woman.
The frequencies of gamma and delta hold our reality together as alpha and omega. Gama being the higher frequency's such a flute, the beginning of a cycle. In yoga philosophy, Krishna's flute is the body, the symbol of freedom creating the world from sounds that emanate from his music. Delta being the lower frequency, such as a drum, the ending of a cycle. In Mohawk's native traditions, the drum is a symbol of the body; the drum's deep sounds purify the mind and the ego, preparing us for self-surrender or letting go. When both octaves become wave-less, we achieve equanimity.

Alpha and Omega cycles can be seen as evolutionary enrichment, a service to, or for, a more expansive celestial template. The Alpha point can be the seed carrying the codes and blueprints for an entire cycle. The Omega point can bring the designs and laws for the ending of an evolutionary cycle. This Omega cycle can prepare us for our ascension into a new Alpha system of higher light levels and soul advancement, or many other Alpha systems of creation. Each being can qualify for or has the free will to accept higher light orders to be infused within the whole Alpha/Omega system.
This light infusion can continually run as we transcend the lower density of light on the planet into a more constructive wholeness of light; freedom within light can govern freedom within humanity (be the change). Lower light density may be old programs that can no longer sustain our current higher light programs' vibration. These programs may make “weight” within the foundation of the planet and our being. Those of us who choose the path of surrender can experience tremendous energy shifts within our bodies, allowing us to hold more light (information).
When we move into an Omega point in our reprogramming, acceleration can occur, and we can assimilate and eliminate tons of information within our Being - what we understand, or thought we understood, in our conscious reality drops away. We may begin to make room for new information or light. Let’s look at the possibility that there may be no healing to be done. When we look at our trauma differently, as treasures, abundant opportunities to learn and grow, then the cure may have already begun; the body’s natural healing process may respond and start immediately. We will use an ocean metaphor to simplify: what happens to a river or sea when it gets stirred up? If you place your hand in a stream and begin to move the water around, things start to surface; all the mud and dirt can start to rise. When you take your hand out, the mud from the surface can eventually settle back down. The living miracle/body knows what to do when the mud surfaces from the river, just like the mechanic knows how to fix the car.
It can be simple to let the living God (Mechanic) take care of itself, just let things surface and settle. The more we engage and focus on the mud in the river, the more we can act the part out, making it harder to shift out of that hypnotic state, taking its toll on the body. We can start to sound like a babbling brook, continually focusing on talking about the mud stirring beneath the surface. The ocean can be seen as life; there can always be something that may stir it up. These cycles can happen many times within our ages. Some move faster through these cycles (depending on how they adapt and perceive the older programs), while some may choose to act the process out in more space and time, reflecting on the original programming they may have created or attracted.
The Omega cycle can feel like a death or transition. Some may choose this death within the physical, and some may not. It can feel like your whole being, or what your perception of your person was, drops away, and you arrive like a butterfly out of a cocoon into a new Alpha/Omega cycle within.

The will of nature or its universal expression can order all things. Throughout life, the Sun shines bright so we may clearly see our neighbours and the winds blow so we may hear the words compassionately that are spoken and respond respectfully. The moon shines at night, so when we rest, we can integrate our day. Nature can be present throughout, spreads and flows within all things at all times with spirit.
Give gratitude and respect to all who give worship to spirit and nature, even when it looks different than ours. If we practice the natural way, we may attain a level of peace in this life and find that our journey may be less burdened with responsibilities throughout the day. Try to see it as Different people different experiences, but underneath that, we are worshiping the same. Let’s take a look at some basic things that motivate us and drive us in this carnation, it’s a two-letter word FOOD SOURCE, and the consumption of Prana or life force (nature) the less we consume, the more nature can thrive within us and outside of us. The more Prana or life force we interact with outside of ourselves in the environment and the material world, the more it can take/deplete our natural Prana or life force within.
The body can begin to be dependent on the outside world/mind and feed on it, as the body learns how from muscle memory. Everything we take, do or interact with from outside of us can take from inside us, our physical body, our organs, our tissues etc. Even our aura, light-body, soul, or spirit, whatever names we would like to give it. Take as little as you can, consume as low as you can, and transcend the material's desires and the mind as they enter the environment, BE IN THE WORLD, and NOT OF IT.
We can begin to work with the holographic thought-forms within our own space matrix before imposing them on the planet and others in the environment. It fascinating how fast things can unfold into our reality matrix in this present time zone we are in; as we may be aware, there’s a super conscious influx of information arriving at our planet every nanosecond. We would perceive as time with our manifestations or creating our own realities can come into fruition quickly.
We may be able to free ourselves from the mind, try to monitor our thoughts with wakefulness. When you attain that freedom from the mind, liberation can arrive all by itself, your mind can become very calm, all worries can vanish. Those who have achieved even very little of this great quest can be noticed by the charm in their eyes, their voice, and their energetic body solid in their HEART space, their center.
When we celebrate the present, the future can unfold naturally; this can be the homeostasis seat of our real consciousness, effortless co-creative power of space/ether. When we have space integrated and anchored into our body's higher physiological systems, we can maintain our connection to the internal stability, manifesting outer stability with very little disturbance within the body’s mechanical conditions and functions with unseen or space between.
This space in-between can be where all the action and thought waves come into motion. If we are missing this, it will look like sitting on the bench watching the football team from the sidelines play the game. We have a choice to sit idle and watch everything unfold or play an active part. They both are relevant, but to some, interacting and throwing the football can be fun. And let’s mention personal determination or taking an active part in our development physically/mentally and emotionally (mind) can maintain optimal body weight, health and all other aspects that create a sustainable body/environment must come from within. And yes, our bodies are smart enough to mostly maintain optimal efficiency, despite what the mind tells us to do.
A healthy mind can create a healthy body. We will close this last portion out before moving into the next section of nature and women with these comments. Thoughts can create waves and swim in the same ocean together, so please let’s watch our thoughts. One day we may wake up and come to the complete realization there may be no difference between the inside world and the outside world. When we interact outside of us, we are touching inside us. When we touch inside of us, we interact outside of us.

We are training for the future and put on this planet to observe our patterns, energy, and discipline flow. We are continually introduced to transformative thought forms during specific transitional periods on the earth, a biological testing zone. These interim periods can happen every 100 years when humanity gets an evolutionary jump forward.
We are currently in one of those learning stages that began in the year 2000; acceleration took place to open specific information channels to our species. If we look at nature on our planet, specifically our plant species, each harvest and gather light/love (data) in their unique way with childlike efficiency. This process can be known as the singularity; each seed begins the germination process straight up from the same foundation as all the other seeds (earth). The seed synthesizes into plant form and other plant forms to create something new and unique from each other. The seed begins to focus its entire energy straight up from the earth towards the sun.
These plants have a unique mechanism named photosynthesis, a memory programme that allows them to harvest and convert Love/light energy from the sun then used as fuel to perform their duties beyond any rational, logical or theoretical discussion. This light and information can be found when engaged from within, performing miracles and anchoring themselves (roots) deep into the mother as they reach the sky (father). The displacement of the sources within the earth triggers a memory and affirms one agenda of Success. These plants begin to focus solely on growth. Their needs are met from the sun, the water, the air, and the earth. Their future knows love. Just like plants, we share an agenda and tomorrow, we even share similar organic properties.
