Part 4
“Infinity
times twenty-six.”
By
R. Peterson
Let’s
go together somewhere you and I … somewhere we haven’t been for a long, long
time. Let’s have an adventure. How about a treasure hunt? Let’s find something
of great value and bring it back. I know, your mother told you never to talk to
strangers let alone go anywhere with them and that is good advice. So let me
introduce myself. I am merely a collection of thoughts transmitted to you from
the past. Harmless for the most part … trust me.
How far in the past?
That depends on when you are reading this. It could be minutes, hours, days,
weeks, months, years, centuries, millenniums, epochs, periods, eras, and eons
since I put these words on a page. But probably not;
no
more than a few days, weeks or months would be my guess. It
doesn’t really matter. I wrote these words in the past and you are reading them
in my future … in your now. My mind has traveled forward in time to connect
with yours …. Pretty amazing … yes?
Before we begin our
journey we must first know where we are and where we are going, otherwise how
will we know when we leave or when we arrive? Space is created by velocity and
time
is measured by space. All known things in the universe are relative to each
other, created in perfect balance and are only an infinitesimally small
fraction of that which is unknown. All we know for certain is that we are
somewhere in the middle of something very large … and getting larger. No matter
where you are, you are no longer alone … I am with you. As to where we are
going? Why back to the beginning of course. Back to the beginning of everything! What better way to remake you into what
you most desire!
I will ask you to do fourteen very simple things as
you read. When I ask you to do something it will be in bold print like this. Don’t worry … the things I
ask you to do are very simple and can be (must be) done in secret to have the
desired effect. This is about you and me and the inner workings of the mind …
no-one else. If you find yourself reading ahead without doing what I asked
please back up a paragraph and read and (do) again. This is very important. In
order to go certain places and to open certain doors you must become something
that I can control. I will never make you do anything you wouldn’t normally do.
If you trust me, I will take you to the beginning of time to retrieve a
treasure of immense value that you have lost … or perhaps you never knew you
had.
When we finish, you
will be on an emotional rocket-ship, soaring higher than anything in the world
will ever lift you. You will feel a fantastic power inside of you for an hour,
a day, for weeks or for months. How long you retain this euphoric feeling … will
be up to you.
First of all I want you
to be comfortable … relaxed. Some people might want to take a bath or a shower
and put on warm flannel pajamas perhaps a pair of warm slippers. No one is
going to see you and I want you to look/feel your best. Unless of course you’re
in a large office or some other crowded area. In that case you probably are
already dressed and looking your best under the circumstances. Other people can
be so needy and stressful to your own well-being. Don’t think about them now if
you’re not alone. On this journey it’s only you and me. Are you ready for an adventure? If so read
these instructions and then do them very carefully. This is very important. (1) Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Count slowly to three. Exhale and then open your eyes.
You are beginning to
relax now. A very slight and very
pleasant tingling sensation has just started in the tips of your toes and is
now moving up your legs. Are you
ready?
(2)
Blink once … and we will begin.
If infinity exists it
must exist in all things: time, distance, weight and size. Infinity is a closed
structure without beginning or end. Therefore that which is absolutely the
farthest away from you … is also the nearest. The largest and the smallest
things are actually the same. The beginning is also the end and mass will
eventually reach a point where it weighs nothing. If this doesn’t make sense
that’s okay … you don’t have to believe what I say … just trust me!
We’re going across the
universe and back in time to the very beginning of everything. Impossible you
say! That would take exceeding the speed of light millions of times and a
trillion lifetimes! That is true if we traveled in any conventional way … but
we’re going by way of small … very
small. The entire universe is as close as the tip of your finger.
(3)
Close your eyes and tap your finger on your leg three times.
You are still conscious and very alert … but you subconscious
is growing smaller.
(4)
Continue tapping with your finger as you read.
Each time your finger touches your leg we get twice
as small. The room you were sitting in is now as large as a field then a farm …
now two farms … now four … eight … sixteen … thirty-two … sixty-four. We are
now just a tiny specks melting through the floor. The splinters of wood that
surround us are as large as tree trunks … now houses … then cities. Single cells
in the wood are like huge caverns … then mountains looming over us. Microscopic
life forms flee in all directions as we pass through their dimension.
We are in darkness
where no sunlight can reach … and so we become the light. Clusters of molecules
appear, grow huge and then absorb us. Still we go down … tinier and tinier …
into the vast emptiness called inner space. Tiny specks of light appear glowing
like stars and the distance between them in unimaginable. We are floating in
darkness … warm and yet wonderfully cool … a place where dreams are made.
What we are seeing is the universe. Remember how I
said the tiniest things and the largest were the same. We now have to move
across the universe back in time to the beginning of all things … but how? The
problem of propulsion still remains over vast and immense distances. The only
difference is now we have an immense source of power far above us in another dimension
where the entire universe we are in is just a tiny pin point on the tip of your
finger.
(4)
Raise your right index finger and lightly touch your earlobe. There
is a rumbling sound in the far distance. Far below you in the vast darkness, where
your subconscious floats, massive engines have started. Your heartbeat quickens
ever so slightly; this is good. It takes an enormous amount of power to attain
the velocity that we need, even on such an impossibly small scale.
(5)
Gently make an X with the tip of your tongue on the roof of your mouth.
We are now enclosed in a clear glass bubble. Soft
invisible foam surrounds us and conforms to our bodies. You feel warm and
protected. You are completely relaxed. Exhilaration
flows through our veins as the rumbling sound grows louder. Massive reverse
gravity boosters attach to the back of the bubble with a series of clinks and
clunks and we are ready to begin. There is a faint vibration that tickles your
toes as the massive engines power up. When you are ready to begin …
(6)
Wiggle the toes on your right foot.
The acceleration is instant and without any resulting
G forces. The tiny specks of light (stars) streak past us approximately two a
second. We are moving through inner-space at twice the speed of light. We
collide with something. Don’t worry it was not unexpected. You feel only a
faint vibration in your legs. When you exceed the velocity of light you go
backward in time. This is our destination … the beginning of all. Another
collision and then another. Our mass doubles each time but without the effects
of gravity there is no way to feel it. The collisions are coming two at a time …
then four then sixteen. Our speed is increasing. Instead of collisions, each
impact feels like one of a continuous series of vibrations. Because of the vast
distances we must cover even this speed will not be enough. We must accelerate
in multiples of ten!
(6) Wiggle the toes on your left foot.
The surge in
velocity is awesome. Now instead of stars moving past we have distant galaxies
zooming past at one-hundred times the speed of light … now one-thousand. The
collisions continue. The horizon appears to be shrinking. Now we hear the
whoosh-boom sound as entire galaxies crash together and are absorbed into our
sphere. We are now impossibly massive. So much for that New Year’s diet right?
From
our three-hundred sixty degree view of the universe we see the edge of the
universe and it is being drawn inward. We are now moving back in time at one
million times the speed of light. There is a roaring sound as millions of galaxies
collide and become much smaller objects moving toward a central point. Still
our acceleration continues. Our velocity is now one-hundred million times the
speed of light … now a thousand.
We see that we are near the outside edge of a vast
circle being drawn inward. Rainbow beams of distorted light shrink and twist … disappearing
into holes made of nothing. The mass of the globe we are moving in is nearing
the limits of infinity. Still our acceleration continues. We have now reached a
billion times the speed of light and we begin to slow as our velocity
approaches infinity … but will it be enough?
(7) Press your right foot against the
floor.
We begin to slow
even more, but we are still moving impossibly fast. Shrinking … compacting. From
all sides trillions of chunks of matter each more massive than a billion
galaxies are coming together. Our combined mass (weight) is also approaching
the limits of infinity.
(8) Press down with both feet against the
floor.
We have to slow
time even more if we are to witness the beginning or the end of everything …
remember I said that all things related to infinity are the same. We are now just
one huge cracked ball of fiery matter with ribbon-streams of colored light
being drawn inward. Now there is no color to the light only white flashes as
the ball of matter we are a part of shrinks.
All matter in the universe now has a diameter of
less than a million miles … now a thousand … now a hundred … now ten. The
roaring sound has now stopped and there is only silence. No light … no weight …
no time … nothing … except …
(9) Close your eyes take a deep breath and
enjoy the feeling.
We are floating in an endless void without matter,
space, time or energy. As John Lennon once said “there’s nothing to get hung about …” We can stay as long as you
like … and we do.
You and I have never felt such restful contentment.
Gone with energy and mater are all the stresses and worries of our world. But I
promised you a treasure …. didn’t I?
You must realize that when all things are gone …
matter, energy, time space one thing still remains … and it is the primary building
block of creation.
Many of the foremost theoretical
physicists in the world today believe that our universe is nothing more than a
magic trick. And many claim to have proof. A Holographic Universe in essence means that the information that makes
up what we perceive as a three-dimensional reality is actually stored on a
two-dimensional surface, including space-time. This means, essentially, that everything
you see, feel, smell and touch … is just an illusion.
When all else is gone
what you have left is … imagination.
It is peaceful to look upon the vastness of nothing …
a black blanket without purpose or demands. But you and I want more … in fact
we want it all!
(10)
Close your eyes, take a deep breath and imagine three swirling spheres being
created in the darkness before you.
One of the spheres is bronze the color of a quiet desert at sunset. Another is silver like the dancing of moonlight on splashing
night water. The third sphere is gold
like a bouquet of camellia flowers reflected in a mirror. Each of the spheres
has its own unique power … but you can only pick one … you must choose
carefully.
(11)
Close your eyes, take a deep breath and slowly count to three. Reach out with
your mind and touch the sphere of your choice with the tip of your finger.
Even as you feel the sphere being absorbed through
your finger you feel a restless energy forming. Infinity rests on the razor
edge of beginning and end. Even the infinitesimally small weight of imagination
when successfully used … has substance.
You feel the pressure building even as the globe you
chose moves up the veins in your arm and covers your heart. The power and abilities
you have longed for all your life are now yours! You shudder from euphoric
convulsions of unaltered bliss … even as nothing explodes into everything!
First there is light spreading outward in a vast
wave of energy. Newly formed subatomic particles of matter dissolve into radiation
and strengthen the light. A few particles begin to cluster together and form
base atoms. In less than a thousandth of a second trillions of particles begin
to form the first crude elements Hydrogen, Lithium and Baryllium. The high temperature
is still too close to infinity to form sustainable matter the elements quickly
dissolve back into energy. We are spreading outward at the speed of light and
the universe begins to cool.
(12)
Close your eyes and count the breaths you take.
Even as you count you realize you are in an eternal
and deep sleep. Your physical eyes are open so that you can read but your subconscious
eyes are sleeping. It is the only way to endure eternity. The only thing that
matters is the awesome power of the precious sphere that you hold inside of
you.
After your first breath matter has formed and the
first clouds of matter are born, it has been a billion years. After your second
breath the clouds have begun to condense into stars … it has now been two
billion years.
After your fifth breath stars have begun to cluster
into galaxies. Vapor surrounding the stars has begun to form into planets and
asteroids.
Near your tenth breath we are drawn into a spherical
galaxy and near a newly forming star on one outside arm. A cloud of vapor
rotates around the star and we are directed toward a fiery rock orbiting third
from the burning mass of hydrogen gas.
Right after your eleventh breath the rock begins to
cool and water vapor forms … it begins to rain in the atmosphere of the planet
Earth.
On your twelfth breath oceans have formed and
evaporated countless times … finally dry land appears and is sustained.
Plant life develops in the oceans and on land by the
time you exhale for the thirteenth time some of the plants have un-rooted and
became mobile.
As you exhale for the fourteenth time you sense the
ages passing. Two hundred million years and the first animals move onto land.
Another three hundred million years and dinosaurs rule the Earth. After another
four hundred million years there comes a time of darkness and most of the life
on Earth dies … but a very few survive. It is the beginning of mammals … and
the age of man.
(14)
Close your eyes and take a deep breath, count to three. This time open your subconscious
eyes as well as your physical ones.
You feel wonderful and
you should. You and I have traveled to the beginning to time and back again and
we have both returned with a treasure. Only you know what your special treasure
is. You are vastly younger now than when
you left. Time travel does that to a person. The next time you are running late
for work and realize the bus has just left you, try thinking of the bronze
sphere. Relax and use your newfound powers. Try imagining an empty taxi coming
around the corner … it does.
The next time you are feeling lonely think about the
silver globe turning inside you. If the universe truly is a hologram you have
only to use your imagination. You smile and begin to dance as … your phone
rings … and a friend invites you to a party.
You always feel hope when you think of the golden
globe that surrounds your heart. Life is an ever changing vortex of magic,
mayhem and madness … you have been to the
end/the beginning and back … and love is only a heartbeat away!
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU
