I have been writing notes underneath the YouTube videos that I have been composing, but it has been limiting what I can say to a certain number of words.

THE LAW OF FALLING

One of the odder chapters in the book BEELZEBUB'S TALES TO HIS GRANDSON by Gurdjieff is entitled "The Law of Falling".  In this book, Gurdjieff describes space ships that went through space that "fell in the right direction".  When I first read the chapter, I did not get the inner meaning of the space ships.  But then I read COMMENTARIES ON BEELZEBUB'S TALES by John Bennett and found this book unlocked the symbolic key to understand the meaning of the chapter, and after understanding how to decode the chapter, I found I could unlock other chapters of the book as well.

The law of falling has to do with "gravity waves" moving throughout the universe at 3.75hz and how Robert Monroe was found to have left his physical body behind and move into his energy body or lucid dreaming body at this frequency.  It is a state of surrender to Divine Grace, where you surrender and let go, and fall into the pull of Divine Grace, and let it move you through all the challenges of the spiritual path.

The archangels who invented this "surrender drive", which is the essence of the spiritual path in many spiritual traditions, however, found that the devotees of this path had trouble when their space ships encountered the gravitational power and atmosphere of other worlds.  When they were near a world, they would have to shutdown their surrender drive and deal the situation on what Star Trek called "impulse drive" and even modify impulse drive with "thrusters" to navigate the issues of the local environment.  Very gradually, they would get unstuck from the gravitational pull of a world, reach "escape velocity" of this pull, and they return back into empty space, and then activate "surrender drive".

In the book by John Bennett, the atmosphere of a world is our meeting with other human beings, especially family, friends, acquaintances, and enemies who "push our buttons", "activate our issues", and "pull us into their emotional dramas".  The atmosphere is the charged emotional environment and its intensity.  When we understand how to "let go" in meditation, we are soaring down the spiritual path and processing everything very well.  We are doing high level processing in a high state of consciousness, and then we are pulled down through a sanskaric activation, and are back at a slower and more mundane level of working through our issues and overcoming our ego state.  We are entangled or caught in the atmosphere of another world or another complex human psychological process, one which may even be actively pushing its own agendas on us, trying to coopt our energies for their own purposes, and even trying to jam our analysis of what is going on so that we can figure out how to free ourselves from this "gravitational eddy" that we have now got stuck in.

Another group of archangels solves this atmospheric gravitational eddy problem by developing a back up engine.  This back up system will absorb the emotional energy of the atmosphere and then, at the right time, transform it and fire it out of the impulse drive engine, boosting the power of this drive in the process.  This is the equivalent of doing "Tonglen" in Buddhism, where one breathes in the negative afflicted emotional energy of the atmosphere and transform it into positive loving energy that we gift and breath out into the atmosphere.  This energy conversion system allows us to dissolve our ego state more quickly and free us from the gravitational grip of the other person.  In other words, we realize, how much it seems to be about the other person, that it is always about something inside of us and the other person has hooked into, and we learn how to breathe in the afflicted emotional energy and let it transform our ego state, and when we do so, we boost out of this whole situation, and then, when out in space again, we activate surrender drive, and continue.

The improved space ships worked better than the older ones that only knew how to surrender in ideal conditions.  Their upgrade allowed them to use adversity and gravitational eddies in order go back into "outer space", beyond the gravitational pull of an atmosphere, and then engage "surrender drive".

Surrender drive is like "warp drive" in Star Trek, while atmospheric navigation is like impulse drive and control thrusters in Star Trek.  One has to use them when they "drop out of warp" (or drop out of dynamic surrender into the sacred and have to engage the situation and surrender the ego in an ordinary way).

In other words, "surrender drive" or "warp drive" does have issues with ordinary space and time.  There are a lot of reasons why one "drops out of warp" (loses the feeling of surrender and falls to a lower vibration).  When it encounters minimal resistance, we soar.  When we get pulled into a lower frequency, it still takes time to ramp up to escape velocity and re-engage warp (surrender drive), and, again, feel the spaciousness of a high state of consciousness.

What I would like to propose is a further upgrade beyond what Gurdjieff indicated in his chapter, and that is to upgrade "warp drive" to "quantum slipstream drive".

QUANTUM SLIPSTREAM DRIVE

There is not a lot of write up in the Star Trek canon about the difference between "warp drive" and "quantum slipstream".  What warp drive and trans warp drive is about is dropping into a subspace field where the laws of ordinary space and time are no longer fully operative, and the speed limitations of relativity (that we cannot go faster than the speed of light, which would limit us to travel 1,000 light years to the nearest solar system) are transcended.  However, when we are back to interacting with people in ordinary space and time, we naturally slow down and have to deal with them under the laws of ordinary space and time.

Quantum slipstream does not involve punching a wormhole through subspace and moving inside a subspace tunnel.  What it does is to find or create a "fold" in space and time, and ride inside of this fold.  This means we are interacting with ordinary space and time in a new way.  It is like being in a subspace and subtime field while interacting with ordinary space and time, moment to moment, within a bubble which on the inside is beyond space and time, and on the outside (the bubble membrane itself) is part of ordinary space and time.  This means that we do not have to vibrate down to where others are to interact with them, and therefore they do not have to hinder us.  We can flow within slipstreaming while seeming to interact with them through a kind of translation matrix, and still stay centered in our surrender drive even better.

This would represent a second upgrade to the drive system of our "space ship" or "meditation matrix".

UPGRADE PROCESS #1

In order to upgrade our space ship to the new drive, we need to understand the previous versions and their limitations.  Then to understand "space" and "time" in a dual way.  We understand space as it is from a higher order of reality, where space, time, and matter are illusions and "dreams in consciousness".  This means that every planet is an illusion and there is no matter or emotion to transform through tonglen or ordinary ego reduction in the spiritual traditions of planet Earth.  Every ego is seen to be unreal, a construction in consciousness that we made and then believed we are, and made real to us, and then believed it was us.  Part of the upgrade is that we realize that no one has an ego.  And that every ego is an illusion.  If we make the egos of others be real, then we are stuck in our own unreal ego that we have now made real.  The making real of the ego is how we get stuck in our ego.  If we see it as an illusion, then we are free from its grip.

The key idea is that we cannot make the egos of others real and make our ego unreal to us.  The same logic that makes the egos of others as real to us will also make our own ego real to us.  This key idea needs to be deeply internalized in order for the upgrade or initiation to happen to a higher vibrational level than "warp drive level surrender" required, where the ego merely needed to be transcended or broken through, whether real or unreal.  In slipstream, the ego must be seen to be an illusion that we are making real and getting stuck in.  If we do not make it real, then we cannot get stuck in it or in any atmosphere in any world.

UPGRADE PROCESS #2

The second key idea is that we do not need to prove to them that they are wrong for making their ego real.  We can stay in the higher view that they are already pure conscious awareness that they have chosen to be lost in an ego state where they are choosing to believe it is real and make it seem real by believing in the state, and let them do so.

Meanwhile, we do not have to believe in what they are doing to themselves and still see that they are pure awareness that is imagining their world and believing it is real.  We can see where they imagine they are and where they actually are simultaneously.  If we can do this, then we can "stay within the quantum fold" and keep on flowing.  It is part of what Jesus was trying to share when he taught people to be "in the world, but not of the world".  To be more precise in terms of this quantum slipstream drive, "seem to be in the world to others, but not believe you are in the world at all".  You stay in the center of the bubble, and let your bubble interact with their bubbles, while flowing inside and staying in your own process.

UPGRADE PROCESS #3

The third idea is that we stay in "circular surrendered breathing" which I have covered before.  This breathing has several components:

(1) Whisper chanting "ah" on the inhale and "dheeh" on the exhale.

(2) Breathing in and visualizing liquid light coming from a six inch sphere floating above your head and coming in through the soft spot at the top of the head.

(3) Visualizing the liquid light relaxing, energizing, and renewing all the cells it flows into, and then feel it come into a nine inch diameter sphere in the heart center, and from there, on the exhale, pumping into the whole body, nourishing and energizing each and every cell.

(4) On the exhale, one whisper chants "dheeh", and feels one merges with all the wisdom of the higher Buddhas to surrender, trust, allow, and abide in a power coming from Luminous All Pervading Space (God) and to let this Power do everything for us with our moment to moment permission.

(5) One removes all pauses between inhale and exhale, and feels a continuous breathing that merges inhale and exhale together.  The feeling is of one continuous circle of breathing with only a gentle "turning" between inhale and exhale.  There is a feeling of flowing and adapting to each moment which is the purified spiritual wisdom essence of the water element.

(6) One lets go of the subtle ego called the "breather" or the one who imagines it controls the breathing as an entity that is not the breathing.  One instead "breathes from the breath itself as the living breath itself".  In Buddha's words, you breathe from inside the breath, rather than being a thing that is trying to control the breath from outside the breath.  This controller ego is what gets enmeshed in subtle power struggles with every ego in an atmosphere or world.  When we release this, inside our breathing, then there is nothing to hold us in the illusory dramas of a world.  There is therefore no gravitational pull to break free of.

(7) After feeling that we are breathing from the breath itself as the breath itself, there is one more step, which is to "let us as the breath be breathed by Luminous All Pervading Space" (God).  This removes any last trace of something that needs to be surrendered to God or Space.  We let our process by held.  It is like linking into a tractor beam that gently pulls us past everything and keeps us on track.  Because it is not from us, we do not have to struggle with anything.  This is Quantum Slipstream Divine Grace.

This circular surrendered breathing is the drive system of a quantum slipstream upgraded space ship.

UPGRADE PROCESS #4

The fourth and last upgrade needed to engage in quantum slipstream drive is to concentrate on the crystal at the third eye point, and hold the thought "engage quantum slipstream drive".  If we ever hit a bumpy patch of space, time, and an atmospheric drama gravity well, we concentrate on the thought "engage quantum slipstream drive" and engage in the seven gears of circular surrendered breathing.  This process restabilizes us in quantum slipstream.

Some secondary processes are, (1) "I let them have their illusion, even if it is about me, (which it always is, since egos generally want to make every other ego real and struggle with each other) and let myself have my reality, which includes them in unity with me, and thus I am instantly freed."  This would correspond to the highest level of "forgiveness" that Jesus had taught.  (2) "I release them to do whatever they want, and give myself permission to live from my freedom too, and then use my freedom to do circular surrendered breath".  (3) "There is nothing real in this situation to fight or resist or even transform."  (4) "I let this illusion be as it is and flow beyond it".  (5) "I surrender into the all pervading light and let it take me home".  (6) "I used to work hard in impulse drive and even with the limitations of warp drive, but I do not have to any more."  (7) "I can bypass all this unless I make it real, try to avoid it or struggle with it, I do not need to fight an illusion, only see it as such and let it go."

A dream taught me how to engage this quantum slipstream and I found that when I moved through the thickness of the "dark night of the soul" that is dissolved.  It was no longer being held together by my belief in this dark night or in the belief of those early spiritual warriors who struggled long and hard to go beyond it, and who believed that those who came after them would have to work as hard or they were "avoiding the inner work".  I found I moved through the same spaces, but they did not feel solid or heavy any more.  I found that when I was tempted to make the obstacles real, and my body was tightening something inside as a reaction to "what is", that I would remember to re-engage quantum slipstream and go into circular surrendered breathing and was instantly freed again.  It felt like "traction control" in my Saturn car when it was on an icy road.  Whenever the car seemed to slide on the ice, traction would instantly engage and realign the car, and it would not deviate from its chosen course.  The body part would spontaneously relax, and even ancient tension patterns would melt away in this drive state.
