Growing Up Is Ongoing Evolutionary Process
it can be helpful for you to understand how to grow up to make sense of why it has not happened yet
ADULTHOOD
Adult life awaits you, regardless of how old you are.
In a culture that has banned authentic adulthood initiatory processes - as modern culture has - adulthood is given a bad name.
Nobody raised in modern culture is attracted to an adult life... because in reality 'adult' does not mean X-rated porno films. 'Adult' is a level of consciousness arrived at through initiations.
Adult consciousness equates to more responsibility than child-level responsibility.
Nobody raised in modern culture is attracted to greater responsibility... because we were given outdated thoughtware about what responsibility is.
Modern culture systems of school and work would rather that you stayed as an uninitiated adolescent, uncertain, disempowered, adaptive, and, at most, rebellious. Current systems are designed to defend themselves against rebels.
Current systems are not designed to defend themselves against radically responsible, nonlinear, gameworld-building adults.
Until you grow up you are left behind as an uninitiated economic-slave being used as a pawn in someone else's gameworld.
Perhaps it is time for you to grow up?
GROWING UP
To 'grow up' means to take back your Center, your connection to Gaia, your Feelings, your Voice, and therefore your Authority, and then to use inner and outer resources that modern culture knows nothing about to create the gameworlds you would love to live in (family, culture, relationships, work, school, etc.).
If you begin a path of growing up, nobody can tell you what to do anymore because you do what you do by your own Choice.
But then there is no one for you (or your Gremlin...) to blame for your life not turning out well, or for it becoming exquisite!
An adult life awaits you.
You won't get there for free.
You get there through growing up.
Growing up demands that you pay full price.
Only an uninitiated person would imagine that we are talking about money here.
'Paying full price' is not about money.
Certainly it will cost you money, because that is the interim currency of the capitalist patriarchal empire. The actual payment for growing up is comfort. It will cost you your peace of mind.
To grow up you must sacrifice your sleepwalking.
Growing up occurs through change.
CHANGE
Why are we talking about 'adulthood' and 'growing up' on a website about Liquid States?
Because an authentic Liquid State aims at a valuable purpose: evolution, becoming more conscious... the same purpose as the purpose of the Universe. Change.
If you are having a Liquid State for no purpose then it is likely that your Gremlin is eating your life, in which case we suggest that you explore the Gremlin website for further illuminating EXPERIMENTS to help you get more choice in the matter.
Through an authentic Liquid State actual change happens.
If there is no Liquid State in any of your 5 Bodies, you are just talking, mentally masturbating, eating plastic food, deceiving yourself, bathing in bullshit, living in fantasy land, stalling.
If there is no Liquid State, there can be no change. That should be self-evident.
At the same time, being in a Liquid State does not guarantee change! A Liquid State may also be a Box survival gambit or a Gremlin feeding frenzy.
How can you distinguish between a Gremlin liquid state and an authentic Liquid State? An authentic Liquid State results in behavior change due to increased awareness. A Gremlin liquid state results in a fatter Gremlin.
Authentic Liquid States are an integral part of growing up, evolution, healing, matrix building, learning, transformation, awareness expansion.
Why do you need a Liquid State for change? Think of it this way. If you had a handful of gold coins and wanted to use the gold to make a statue of an angel, how would you do it? You could place the coins in a clay pot. Insert the clay pot into a furnace. Turn the furnace to high heat until the gold melts into a liquid. Then pour the liquified gold into an angel mold. The gold cools down and resolidifies all by itself. That does not take very long. When the gold is cool you pop the mold off, and there you have it. Like they say in France, "Voila!" An angel! It is the same gold but now it has a new function. (Function follows form.) Before the authentic Liquid State, the gold was ordinary currency. After the authentic Liquid State, the gold is a sacred artifact, an archetypal doorway.
Something similar happens during authentic adulthood initiatory processes: your Being takes on a new shape which automatically generates new functionality.
Some people ask, "What is the mold for your Being when you enter a Liquid State?" This is a wise question, indeed! The mold for the liquified Being is the 'morphogenetic field' (shape-making field) of the space in which your Liquid State occurs. The shape-making field in Possibility Management work spaces is established by the Bright Principles of the Trainer, Coach, or Mediator.
That is why we recommend participating in authentic adulthood initiatory processes delivered by Possibility Management Trainers, Possibility Coaches, Possibility Mediators, Possibility Psychologists, Memetic Engineers, Edgeworkers, or Riftwalkers who consciously declare their work spaces in the service of Bright Principles. In Possibility Management training spaces, for example, the central Bright Principles are Clarity, Possibility, and Love. These act as a shape-making force to enhance your Being's new shape.
The Universe interacts with you through the shape of your Being. When your Being takes a new shape, the Universe is forced to conform to it. If you are stuck in certain circumstances, one Possibility is to change the shape of your Being through an authentic initiatory Liquid State. For example, to become differently useful to ECCO (Earth Coincidence Control Office), you can engage in transformational healing and authentic adulthood initiations. To get a new job, to engage a new relationship, to feel more alive, to generate new results, to live in a new country, you can enter emotional healing processes, and transformational authentic adulthood initiations.
Now you can understand our interest in getting you fit to enter and navigate authentic Liquid States as you participate in StartOver.xyz. The distinctions, tools, thoughtmaps and EXPERIMENTS in this website empower you to more effectively enter adulthood, where the High Level Fun begins!
5 BODY LIQUID STATES
Below is your basic thoughtmap for navigating your Liquid States.
What is the first thing you need for navigating once you have a map and compass?
You need an 'X' on the map to show you exactly where you are. This thoughtmap gives you an accurate 'X'.
What do your symptoms mean? Which body is having what kind of Liquid State?
Once you integrate this thoughtmap into your Being you can relax and enjoy the transformational ride.
PHYSICAL BODY LIQUID STATES
Your Physical Body includes all your organs, sight, vision, smell, sound, pressure, temperature, muscles, bones, nerves, heart, brain, lungs, joints, skin, and so on. Any of these amazing sensual and processing organs can go into a Liquid State individually or in combination when you are in the process of growing up. We have had people lie on the floor and vomit for three days during a training and since they stayed in the room they Built Matrix and their lives changed for the better.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please be aware that, especially in the case of Physical Body Liquid States, your symptoms could be indicating an actual physical ailment. If you have any doubts about whether a symptom is a serious disease or merely a transformational Liquid State, by all means, please immediately go get your physical body checked out by a qualified physical body doctor. Having some blood tests made or sonograms that reveal everything is fine is far less costly than letting things get serious before taking precautionary actions. Thank you. We need you healthy and well.
Physical Body Liquid State Symptoms can include:
- dizziness
- shakes
- nausea
- fever
- common colds
- muscle cramps or muscle pains
- muscle twitches
- stiff neck, pulled muscles
- aching bones
- swollen or painful joints
- skin rashes
- tiredness, depleted energy, total exhaustion
- sleeplessness, too much energy
- headaches
- diarrhea
- itchiness
- stomach aches
- sore throat
- ringing in the ears
- ear ache
- intestinal cramps
- inexplicable inner pains
- physical accidents caused by any of the above symptoms or lack of coordination or lack of endurance
INTELLECTUAL BODY LIQUID STATES
Since birth you have been hammered by your parents, school, the media, and modern culture at large to move into Verbal Reality and only inhabit your Intellectual Body. With the advent of the smart phone, people around the world have been captured, hook, line, and sinker. If you thought Europe was bad, you should visit Asia one day. It is absolutely shocking to witness streets, trains, restaurants, and cafés full of intelligent human beings of all ages, heads bent down, focused shoulder to shoulder on the unending task of poking their fingers at their screens. They are fascinated, especially in the original sense of the word, meaning to bewitch, to enchant, to allure, to curse. Where your attention goes, your energy flows. The trillions of man-hours and woman-hours and adolescent-hours of attention could only be interesting to those identified with voraciously feeding their Intellectual Bodies. If it should ever occur that your identification with your thinking as yourself cracks... if your intellectual framework of reality should wiggle, or fade out, or blur... if somehow the impressions of one or more of your other 4 bodies should suddenly become vivid enough for a few moments to interrupt your thinking... the shock could be devastating.
Intellectual Body Liquid State Symptoms can include:
- confusion, disorientation, headache
- sudden murderous hatred for anyone who loves you or cares about your well being
- plotting insanely vicious strategies for revenge
- arranging further isolations, lying, making excuses
- loss of credulity even with yourself
- thinking others might see you and judge you poorly
- irrepressibly comparing yourself to others and finding yourself lacking
- mind machine, e.g. time delay, fog, answering a different question than is asked, etc.
- forgetfulness verging on dementia and Alzheimer's
- disbelief, even in your own existence
- grasping after shreds of evidence to justify your positions
- extreme irrationality
- frantic endless explanations
- not sensing when what you have said has been understood
- disregard for timing
- inability to listen
- repeating your stories without knowing it
- rising terror if you are not completely distracted
- being unable to speak or contribute your thoughts for fear of exposing yourself
- manic singing, whistling, or self-talking
- cannot taste your food or remember what you ate
- sensuality holds no interest or is too messy or slow, preference for computer sex
- craving alcohol or sleeping pills before going to bed
- falling asleep with music in your earphones or leaving the TV on
EMOTIONAL BODY LIQUID STATES
Your Emotional Body orients around your heart and yet can affect many other physical body components. Especially mixed emotions can have a powerful and often detrimental effect on the human body. By Unmixing Emotions we discovered sudden inexplicable healing of physical ailments. This is the reason why some of the Possibility Trainers specialized into 'Feelings Practitioners' and now train professional Healing Practitioners or Psychologists how to treat the emotional components of physical ailments. If you are interested in receiving such treatments yourself, or would like to learn these distinctions, tools, thoughtmaps, and processes yourself, please contact the wonderful people at http://feelingspractitioner.com.
Emotional Body Liquid State Symptoms can include:
- grief
- outrage
- panic attacks
- hysterical laughter
- fingernail biting
- suddenly shouting in anger
- skin picking
- hair pulling
- skin cutting
- depression
- isolation
- melancholy
- loss of appetite
- over eating
- nervous stomach upset
- paralysis, inability to act
- stage fright
- hysteria
- nervous twitches or ticks
- cramping
- muscle tensions
- difficult dreams
- not being present
- strange pains around your heart or vocal cords
- not being in the body
- addictive substance abuse: alcohol, marijuana, drugs
ENERGETIC BODY LIQUID STATES
Your Energetic Body is a sensitive energetic field very close to and with the same approximate shape as your Physical Body. Your Energetic Body is almost like a subtle Physical Body. Your pragmatic awareness of your Energetic Body changes significantly when you take on energetic practices, for example, using your intention to keep your energetic center on your physical center to become centered, maintaining a bi-directional grounding-cord from your center to the center of Gaia, declaring, cleansing, and holding your personal bubble of space, etc. Through these practices your Energetic Body quickly becomes more resilient and dynamic. Suddenly you know who is trying to get into your space and why. You can sense whose space a meeting is, and what the spaceholder's purposes are, both stated and unstated.
Energetic Body Liquid State Symptoms can include:
- new kinds of dreams
- realizing the source of past life decisions
- brain splits
- cut off from imagination
- cut off from intuition
- cut off from Gaia
- no bubble of personal space
- no center
- being adaptive
- being listless
- giving up hope
- not committing, not taking a stand
- not being present
- kleptomania
- nymphomania
- enmeshment / fusion
- feeling like you have the right to invade other people's space, eat off their plate, use their stuff, drink from their glass, sleep with their boyfriend/girlfriend, read their mail, go through their drawers, wear their clothes, etc.
- hypersensitivity to energetic connection or disconnection
- hypersensitivity to 'other dimensions'
- seeing ghosts, getting messages from the dead, etc.
- commitments falling apart, or trying to make them manically clear
ARCHETYPAL BODY LIQUID STATES
Perhaps most confusing, and possibly the most predominant Liquid States are Archetypal Body Liquid States. Perhaps these are so confusing and debilitating because modern culture has so completely cut itself off from the Archetypal Domains. This, of course, does not make the Archetypal Domains go away. It just handicaps the culture and its adherents from living their lives. How silly to deny the Archetypal. Even certain scriptures suggest that 'man' (obviously meaning also 'woman') was made in 'god's image', suggesting that the structure most inherent to the human experience is direct and immediate personal access to Archetypal Domains. If a cultural gameworld cuts itself off from the Archetypal this only forces the culture into being an experiential desert, a clarity pauper, poor in perspective, lacking respect, stupid, superficial, weak, promoting only immature and unfulfilling relationships, with starving participants who are weak and confused about who they are and what they are doing here, easily manipulatable from external 'authority' such as car sales advertisements and uninitiated, grandiose, narcissistic 'Donald Trumpian' political Gremlins. Participants in such a culture would need to be entertained from the outside rather than entertaining themselves through Archetypal Body initiations and shared exploratory journeys.
Archetypal Body Liquid State Symptoms can include:
- lack of personal vision
- feeling lost about one's role in the Universe
- psychotic commitment to one's self preservation, fear of death
- fear of life, fear of living full out, fear of groundlessness
- starving for meaning, lacking awesome purpose
- fear of taking a stand for causing the impossible
- fear of serving something greater than one's self
- shock from experiencing that the Archetypal Domains exist but not as shown in superhero movies or esoteric fantasy worlds
- deep unfulfilled longing for big things you cannot explain
- sensing radical emptiness at your core that you cannot fill even by standing in front of an open refrigerator or in the hunting section of a department store
- desperate desire to belong in a gang, to be accepted by an external authority
- trivializing your awe of nature and of the miracle of evolution, e.g. allowing species to go extinct
- irreconcilable incomprehension between life in the material planes and the sacredness of all things
- hatred that comes from fearing indigenous peoples' connection to the spirit worlds and to Gaia
- trying to possess property or land, collecting titles
- adoring hierarchical power structures as if they mean something or are real
- trying to own slaves, such as children, or employees in your company, at least trying to be 'above' them in the hierarchy
- fear of the Archetypal Feminine
- and especially fear of Archetypal Love
Experiments in Phase 1 Liquid States
There is a Phase 1 and a Phase 2 of everything, including the way you work with Liquid States.
During Phase 1 EXPERIMENTS you distinguish between Authentic Liquid States and Gremlin Liquid States.
All change is dramatic, but there is a world of difference between Low Drama and High Drama.
An Authentic Liquid State is High Drama, meaning it is transformational, a natural and necessary element of any actual change.
A Gremlin Liquid State is Low Drama, meaning it is a natural but expensive element of unconsciously feeding your Gremlin.
Successfully distinguishing between transformational High Drama and Gremlin Low Drama is the starting point for taking responsibility for making use of your Liquid States as a solution rather than being owned by them as a problem.
In Phase 1 Liquid State EXPERIMENTS you learn to call your Liquid State experiences by name: "This is a transformational Liquid State."
One man was thoroughly identified with his Intellectual Body as an accountant. He entered an Intellectual Body Liquid State when he started learning to consciously feel his feelings. Not knowing what was happening to him, he immediately took himself into the hospital and got a brain scan. What he was regarding as the problem of no longer being able to base his life only on his thinking was actually the solution to his problem of being so numb and out of touch with himself and his friends...
NOTICE LIQUID STATES IN NATURE
Matrix Code LIQUIDST.01
Each day of the year the nature around you, whether you see it or not, demonstrates Liquid States in so many environments, both huge and miniscule. For the next week, each time you detect a Liquid State in nature, practice the new phrase, "Hmmm, that's a Liquid State." In your Beep! Book start a page titled NATURAL LIQUID STATES and describe 10 Liquid States that actually witness, not that you can think up. The point is to be in the presence of the Liquid State with your 5 Bodies and let the process land in you as a map of how a Liquid State goes. Become a researcher into Liquid States for a while. Write down what you notice.
NOTICE LIQUID STATES IN LITERATURE AND FILM
Matrix Code LIQUIDST.02
Read through these books and films and let yourself be startled when the characters are going through Liquid States. Legends and myths are not merely entertaining past-times. Often they are maps for how to negotiate Liquid States. In your Beep! Book title a page LEGENDARY LIQUID STATES and during the next days and weeks describe 10 well-known fictional or non-fiction individual Liquid States, what they were about, what started them, what went liquid and changed, and who the person became afterwards.
INVESTIGATE PEOPLE'S LIQUID STATES
Matrix Code LIQUIDST.03
People are probably going through Liquid States around you far more frequently than you previously imagined. Either you did not notice them before, or you thought they were something else. Some Liquid States begin, evolve, and completely wrap-up in 3 seconds. Some may take 3 years. The length of time a Liquid State takes is not necessarily related to its depth or importance in a person's life. Start using the term 'Liquid State' in your conversations. When you think you see someone else in a Liquid State, dive right in to the subject with enthusiasm. You can say, "I have been learning that there is such a thing as a Liquid State that people can go through. Some Liquid States are authentic and are a natural and necessary part of evolutionary change, growth, and development. Some Liquid States simply feed a person's Gremlin. I want to learn to tell the difference. Is is possible that you are in a Liquid State right now in one of your 5 Bodies? Are you willing to investigate this with me?" Please make notes about what you learn on your journey together.
ENGAGE ORGANIZATIONAL LIQUID STATES
Matrix Code LIQUIDST.04
Every organization is a gameworld, a complex organism that is born, needs various kinds of nutrition to live, produces offspring and waste products, and eventually dies. During its lifetime an organization's structure, purpose, values, rules of engagement, context, distinctions, traditions, and thoughtware can all evolve and change. Every organizational change process has that soft creamy center - like a jelly donut - the Liquid State, the same as an individual. Your talents for identifying and navigating organizational Liquid States can prove to be tremendously useful and important. Developing your talents could even become a doorway to a powerful new career as a Possibilitator or Riftwalker.
To do this EXPERIMENT, first make a list in your Beep! Book of ORGANIZATIONAL LIQUID STATES that you can think of. List 9 of them. For example, the gameworld of the country of Syria has entered a massive Liquid State due to the draught from climate change. As the government failed to support the farmers they banded into revolutionary sects which are still today being manipulated by the renegade states of USA, Israel, etc. for their own ends. Thousands of refugees have abandonned their devastated farms and cities. This is an organizational Liquid State. When a couple has a divorce this is also an organizational Liquid State. When you have a sense of what an organizational Liquid State it, find one and dive into it as a navigator. The languaging distinctions alone are powerful enough that you can begin navigating organizational Liquid States with useful clarity. Again, please make notes about what you try and what you learn.
DOCUMENT YOUR OWN LIQUID STATES
Matrix Code LIQUIDST.05
Title a page near the back of your Beep! Book MY LIQUID STATES. Under that make 3 columns: BODY, EXPERIENCE, CAUSE. You are having an Intellectual Body Liquid State experience now as you do these EXPERIMENTS, so you can describe your sensations easily. Try not to categorize, name, or package the sensations into something known. Simply describe what is happening like a poet describes eating a freshly picked strawberry. From the 5 Body Liquid States thoughtmap above you should rather easily be able to identify which of your 5 BODIES the Liquid State is occurring in. (Please keep in mind that it is possible to have more than one Liquid State at the same time, either in the same body, or in different bodies, for the same evolutionary change, or for multiple evolutionary changes occurring simultaneously.) But possibly you won't immediately know the CAUSE. It can take some practice to detect exactly which belief/story/taboo/meaning/rule/old decision is dissolving at that moment. But if you have clarity that this IS, indeed, a Liquid State, and if you know which body or bodies are involved, and if you stay connected with the Liquid State experience with an open mind, it won't be long before the CAUSE of the Liquid State comes suddenly into focus. Please write this down. You are building a pattern foundation for effectively shifting into Phase 2 of Liquid State practice.
TELL SOMEONE ELSE WHAT YOUR LIQUID STATE IS
Matrix Code LIQUIDST.06
Tell a close friend that you are doing the experiment of not keeping it a secret when you notice that you are in a Liquid State. Be sure to tell them what you mean by the term 'Liquid State', and that you are not a victim. Ask them if they are willing to listen to your sharing without trying to rescue you or feel sorry for you. If they agree to your terms, then you just successfully negotiated an intimacy journey and you can begin:
- Tell the person that this is an experiment you are doing to Build Matrix in the StartOver.xyz game. (Be sure to record your Matrix Points there.)
- Describe to them what your Solid State was before the Liquid State happened, for example, your belief, your story, your rule, your assumption, your position...
- Also tell them your payoff for holding onto your Solid State position for so long.
- Tell them the catalyst that initialized your Liquid State, what question or realization or incident began your disassembly, your current groundlessness.
- Describe to them which of your 5 Bodies are experiencing the Liquid State, and what your symptoms are in each body.
- Tell them what you guess might be the outcome of your Liquid State, in terms of what you suspect might be changing in you for the better. You may not know, of course. This is only a guess. It is like watching a mango and noticing what is changing so as to estimate when a mango has become ripe enough to eat.
- Tell them you will let them know as the Liquid State comes to an end and things start becoming more solid again in your Being's new form.
- Tell them, "Thank you for listening to me." (NOTE: Now that you listener has experienced that it is possible to have a conversation where one person shares about a Liquid State they are in while the other person respectfully listens, they may want you to do the same thing for them. The clear exchange without rescuing, pity, or shame can be remarkably refreshing and healing.)
Experiments in Phase 2 Liquid States
Phase 2 of Liquid States is when you enter your Liquid State experiences with enthusiasm, as a celebration of success,
as if they are an amusement park, a roller coaster ride, a fun-park horror ride, a house-of-mirrors... startling, confusing, scary perhaps, but not actually devastating.
In Phase 2 of Liquid States you differentiate the sensations of being solid or liquid.
Being solidly identified starts feeling more heavy and rigid, more defended and positional.
Being liquidly disidentified starts feeling lighter and more agile, more available for nonlinear possibility.
In Phase 2 Liquid States you feel more comfortable with the notion that human beings are designed to fly.
You start giving flying lessons, and instructing flight trainers.
The view around each corner of your future starts looking more like a rift...
