EARTH FROM MARS / A SMALL STAGE IN A COSMIC ARENA



This view of the twilight sky and Martian horizon, taken by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity, includes Earth as the brightest point of light in the night sky. Earth is a little left of center in the image, and our moon is just below Earth. A human observer with normal vision, if standing on Mars, could easily see Earth and the moon as two distinct, bright "evening stars."

Whenever I see a picture like this I am deeply humbled and I realize that my life's purpose on this small stage in this vast cosmic arena must be profoundly obvious and simple. As such, my life's purpose was to find, prove, live and share the truth of a Unified Field of Love and Soul Consciousness that exists not only beyond time and space but also beneath our deepest fears: Allen L Roland

I actually have a deep almost primordial memory of being part of a vast cosmic dimension which was beyond comprehension. It may have been a womb memory but the feeling was that I was part of something beyond vast and incomprehensible ~ somewhat similar to what I feel now when I see the picture of Earth from Mars.

As Carl Sagan knowingly said ~ The earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that in glory and in triumph they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of the dot on scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner of the dot. How frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturing, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity ~ in all this vastness ~ there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. It is up to us. It's been said that astronomy is a humbling, and I might add, a character-building experience. To my mind, there is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly and compassionately with one another and to preserve and cherish that pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”

Is it possible, in a Unified Field of love and soul consciousness that exists beyond time and space, that we are instantly joined to a universe that is rapidly surrendering to this same innate universal urge to unite?

As the Universe expands is it, in reality, feeling an increasing innate urge to unite? 
Yes, all those Galaxies in our expanding universe are awaiting their innate call to union ~ as the millions of people on our expanded crowded planet are also awaiting our innate call to union.

Then, what is the call?
The call, quite simply, is love or the innate universal urge to unite. 
Let me use the findings of the recent Nobel Prize winning researchers, Politzer, Gross and Wilczek, to prove my point.
They won the 2004 Nobel prize in physics for their studies of the “strong Force ~ the powerful and mysterious energy that holds the nuclei of atoms together.

They explained the mystifying qualities of the strong force, which holds together the fundamental building blocks of nature, called QUARKS, to form protons and neutrons ~ two of the basic components of atoms.  

Now, this is when it gets interesting

Independently, they developed the theory and the mathematical equations to show that Quarks are held together by the strong force which, unlike any other force in the universe, gets stronger as the quarks get farther apart ~ a concept now known as “Asymptotic Freedom “.

So as the Universe expands it is, in reality, feeling an increasing innate urge to unite. 
Yes, all those Galaxies in our expanding universe are awaiting their innate call to union ~ as the millions of people on our expanded crowded planet are also awaiting our innate call to union.

The simplest analogy is to a rubber band encircling two objects.

When the objects are close together, the rubber band fits loosely. But as they are drawn apart, the rubber band stretches, trying to pull them back together.

Now, here is my take on these findings as applied to my Unified Field of Love and Soul Consciousness.

The strong force in the atom is the urge to unite which is the principle property of my Unified Field.
It is the same urge to unite that Bose and Einstein found when they discovered that photons (light particles) have a tendency to travel together versus act randomly ~ which eventually led to the discovery of the laser.

It is also the same urge to unite that Teilhard de Chardin speaks of when he wrote ~ "If there were no real propensity to unite, even at a prodigiously rudimentary level, indeed, in the molecule itself ~ it would be physically impossible for love to appear higher up in the human form."













This illustration shows one of the three newly discovered planets in the star cluster Messier 67

As CNN Tech reports ~ "We won't be visiting Messier 67, home to about 500 stars, anytime soon. It's also a Milky Way resident, like us. But the cluster is about 2,500 light-years away from Earth, in the constellation Cancer. One light year is nearly 6 trillion miles."

But I maintain, that once we surrender to love or our innate urge to unite, we will be seeing though different eyes and recognize and begin to celebrate our interconnectedness with our neighbor inhabitants in this vast cosmic arena.  

Carl Sagan describes that eventual first contact with extraterrestrial life as probably happening in 2350 but he is limited by the speed of light. I maintain it will happen sooner if and when we surrender to love and the universal urge to unite ~ See Carl Sagan's First Contact ~  8 minute video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JIYSqfEKdA


In summarythe great dawning and, I would add, inevitable realization of psychology, science and religion is that our separateness is an illusion measured by the state of our consciousness and that our ultimate reality, once again measured by the state of our consciousness, is the realization that we are all united and part of a loving and indivisible whole (the Unified Field) ~ and we resist it at our peril. 


For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love : Carl Sagan

CELEBRATING MY SUNSET YEARS






















As I approach my 80th birthday on this planet, I realize I'm still celebrating life with good health, a deep loving relationship with my partner, Keiko and a life filled with many fulfilled dreams as well as a major gift for mankind ~ which probably won't be recognized until after I've passed on. My gift for the planet is my discovery and sharing of the  Unified Field ~ A Unified field of love and soul consciousness that exists not only beyond time and space but also beneath our deepest fears, and whose principle property is the urge to unite ~ and I've proved its existence with my heart centered work with my clients for nearly 40 years and especially combat veterans with PTSD: Allen L Roland

I'll be 80 years old on January 18th and find that my greatest joy in life is still empowering others to surrender to love and heal themselves through the power of gratefulness and it can happen so quickly. Once we begin to thank people for being gifts in our life we enter a magic kingdom where our heart opens and we begin to see through different eyes.

As I approach 80, I can now fully experience the beautiful sunset that was always there in the distance. I can truly see its vibrant colors and surrender to the natural flow of my life ~ from birth, through my groping and growth years and finally arrive at and accept the sunset as I slowly drift towards the darkness.

I've always identified with these words from William James ~ "I am done with great things and big things and great institutions and big successes, and I am for those tiny invisible molecular moral forces that work from individual to individual, creeping through the crannies of the world like so many rootlets or like the capillary oozing water, yet which, if you give them time, will bend the hardest monuments of human pride."

However, it is the sunset years where we get the chance to reflect on our lives and realize, as in my case, that I could not have done it any differently than I did and hopefully, just by being myself, that I made a difference on my brief visit to this small pale dot in the universe.

A small pale dot where 80 years is a flash of light and in my case it’s a flash of love ~ for the heart's desire, as Mahfouz once wrote, was to love so deeply that we would transcend time and space and my Unified Field is testimony to that possibility and my life's work has been spent proving it with my book and my work as a transformation counselor.

In my book RADICAL THERAPY / SURRENDER TO LOVE AND HEAL YOURSELF IN SEVEN SESSIONS ( NOT SEVEN YEARS   I  demonstrate that the seeming separation from love (psychic Pain) is not only capable of stunting our emotional growth as well as effecting our immune system ~ but that by once again surrendering to love through gratefulness we can truly heal ourselves.

See and listen to Carl Sagan as he describes this small pale dot, where we play out our brief life dramas and which he correctly calls a very small stage in the vast cosmic arena . 3 minute must see video ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p86BPM1GV8M

To live in the hearts we leave behind is to never die
