    The only caveat is this: you can’t CHOOSE to “get rid of the idea of the governor” because that would be you being the governor. However, you CAN see (if you’re told, or if it comes to you - still not a conscious choice though) that your thoughts really only ever just ‘pop’ into your mind. Even if they’re logical, they’re still ‘happening’ to you, just as are the feelings inside that you experience. You can’t choose your thoughts beforehand without just thinking of them - and this realization unlocks everything. You’ll always have a conscience - morality isn’t gone (though you may not always see right and wrong clearly), but you’re not in control. You do learn, and you never know what you’re going to think of in the next moment, so there’s always hope. But you’re not in control. This lets you relax, and relax about NOT relaxing if you haven’t yet, because you’re not in control. And again, you’ll always feel your conscience, but you’re not in control.

    Ideas? Fortunately, we're well outta the realm of idea and into reality! LOL. We're not just one macro-organism on a single solitary planet either =) I will venture a guess that if there are other civilizations out there, their biggest cultural change is when each of them come to the realization as a species that they are each one with the Universe, and therefore, one with each other (allowing them to work as one team to advance their exploration into the cosmos❤). Just things I love to think about. There could end up being an interstellar love story in the far flung future.

But Alan watts speaks to me more than anyone. Every word put precisely to what I see and understand in my life. I am currently alive and he is not, but his presence through his words lives continuously. Everything I understand and cannot put into words this man did many years ago. Every lectures blows me.

    Alan listen. Almighty God is real on that there's no doubt, what is less well known is this physical Universe had to created so imperfection could live and grow, this physical Universe is in away a sacred place where those found in error can be admonished! We were the 'Celestial Beings' that found Almighty God's disfavor? So we are those individuals that somehow seen to transgress in some way against 'Almighty God' higher celestial laws, falling short of the greater celestial Mark? This set aside physical Universe had to be created as error hadn't existed before in such away, Almighty God 's wisdom knew this could be a possibility, Almighty God wisdoms is beyond mere mans, isn't it a good job it is! Almighty God has never ever in the full sense existed in this physical Universe, this Universe is in a natural fallen state, to accommodate imperfection are in other words fallen 'Celestial Beings' now being admonished only in kindness so error can be corrected and genuinely understood and overcome! Modern and ancient organised and none organised religions are sadly man made, 'Almighty God' is in the higher celestial realms, 'Almighty God' can't come down to our lowly physical levels; we have to ascend to the higher celestial realms; to meet our Almighty God, imagine if a celestial Almighty God came into this physical Universe what would happen, it may possibly be like a positive terminal coming in contact with a negative terminal, what would be the results only Almighty God would know, religions are by the tongue of ordinary mere men, to rule over the masses, it's a rough tale but a one that needs saying! All religions are lies by the evil rulers, that shadow governments that never change, there never voted in or out, always constantly in power, bringing corruption to the earth sadly, we are in the grip of tyranny, let it not kill the love in our sacred hearts, Almighty God doesn't exist in this physical Universe, Almighty God can't come into this physical Universe; without Almighty God's celestial presence destroying the very Universe, like a positive terminal connecting with a negative terminal, if that happened probably only the highest celestial Almighty God of the real celestial realms may know for sure.
