Ahhh-TheLight.com and wHeretwoworldsTouch.com
are the products of what Rhea A. White would call a "project
of transcendence."
Such a project is a lifework specifically sourced in the kind of
alteration in one's overall consciousness associated with known aftereffects
of spiritually transformative experiences, also known as "exceptional
human experiences" / EHEs. In
fact this project will have succeeded insofar as its intention
to contribute to the globally awakening consciousness inspires
and/or brings together others who recognize in this work of so
many pathfinders a
mirror of their own greatest aspirations and a light to bless
our collective and their own pathfinding.
What is
a
"Project
of Transcendence"?
After cultivating and nurturing EHEs, they may lead to a new way of
being, living, and connecting in the world. This may lead to fresh
insights concerning one's life purpose and "calling" that
involve aspects that transcend the experiencer's ego and everyday
activities and bestow a sense of grace and of doing and living as one is
uniquely "meant" to do. Projects of Transcendence can be
avocational, such as a specific art or craft or recreational activity
(e.g., a sport), or they can be genuine callings, such as nursing,
farming, studying marine mammals, veterinary work, or any number of old
and new ways of making a living that is personally and cosmically
meaningful. They are activities that extend over a period of time,
possibly a lifetime, with built-in opportunities that enable the
experiencer to grow more and give more back to life, which in turn is
continually pushing the limits from within and without to new depths and
heights of experience. This is because, in our view, it is the
evolutionary impetus to growth and in humans, the extension of
consciousness to new levels inwardly and outwardly, that is at the base
of EHEs. These projects are almost always initiated by an EHE
which, if assiduously followed, will lead, at the lower end, to
engagement in a meaningful activity, and at the higher end, to a
discipline that will fully engage the person over a long period of time,
possibly a lifetime. During the course of the project the person
becomes aware of a deep connection or even a oneness with a deeper self,
other people, other life forms, the Earth, the Universe, and the
sacred. As part of this ongoing process, more EHEs will likely be
experienced. These Projects of Transcendence have existed since
earliest recorded times. Every one of the world’s religions is a
Project of Transcendence, as is every art and craft. A Project of
Transcendence is usually initiated by a call to transcendence, or what
used to be known as a calling, or sense of vocation. That call is
itself a form of exceptional human experience. In the past the
lore concerning each art or religious discipline was carried by
institutions, whether they were monasteries, guilds, or schools.
Within these institutions each person was likely to have a spiritual
director, master craftsman, teacher, or mentor to offer guidance
concerning their exceptional experiences. One of the best modern
descriptions of these projects is Inevitable Grace: Breakthroughs in
the Lives of Great Men and Women: Guides to Your Self-Realization by
Piero Ferrucci (Tarcher,
1990). He describes the major ways of being in the world and
finding unity, which he calls the ways of beauty, action, illumination,
dance and ritual, science, devotion, and will.
We can learn about Projects of Transcendence in many ways. We can
read or see films or listen to tapes or talk to persons who participate
in certain activities we feel an affinity to which we are drawn.
And we can read biographies and autobiographical writings about/by
persons who have engaged in long-term activities that partake both of
interactions with the world and with others in a way that involves
"soulmaking." All these ways are both based on and can
give rise to further EHEs that continue the process of becoming one with
everything that is. They lead the experiencer into awareness of
the EHE process and ultimately, the Experiential Paradigm.
These two websites attempt to acknowledge a collaborative
manifestation "Project of Transcendence" that ultimately spans
human hirstory up to the present and even beyond the present into what
we think of as our future. As
we Awaken one by one to greater awareness of our multidimensional being,
we naturally become avid co-creators in this Great Adventure that is our
unfolding Humanity. Across
all that we deem to be past-present-future, from all over the Earth,
from the physical to the most exquisitely refined dimensions and aspects
of who and what we are, we are together this Project of Transcendence!
The continuous Awakening to the MORE that we are as an unbroken,
unified whole – constantly exclaimed by Awakening Experiencers –
comprises a continually converging, coalescing, flowing, dancing sea of
consciousness.
wHeretwoworldsTouch provides a "sacred space" within which to
acknowledge, to celebrate, to learn, to explore, to network, to
collaborate, to support and to nurture this Awakening process together.
It provides a continually expanding complex of resources and communities
where you can with many, many others envision
and bring to conscious fulfillment . . .
-
Your
self as whole and your Whole Self as a consciously co-creative being
-- your personal, ongoing intentional project of transcendence.
-
The
global awareness and participation in this shift into higher
consciousness and being for the Earth in which
Humanity, Nature, and Spirit live in mutually aware harmony.
If ever the metaphor of caterpillar-to-butterfly fit, this is it!
One of the objectives of this Project is to
increase and encourage a more universal awareness and blendedness of
intentionality among people all over the world [and with all
dimensions of being] for this
purpose. It also gives us the mutual awareness that we really
are doing this together and a specific focal point
through which we may share and work together with this understanding
and purpose. The isolationism
and sense of aloneness, the fears, sense of threat and confusion long
associated with exceptional human experiences are rapidly becoming a thing
of the past. We are many,many millions of people! And
we are finding each other and are living triggers for each others'
similar experiences that open a Door into the undeniable
awareness of other dimensions of existence beyond the familiar
physical consensus reality.
-
These
two websites as a collective, collaborative project of transcendence
for the very purpose of being a singular conduit of collective
mutual awareness and celebration of a
revolutionary shift in consciousness that is occurring to people
all over the world. A more thorough introductory article is,
"The
Awakening of a rEvolutionary
New Worldview."
