Theme For Volume 22 of Ray Nascent:

What is alien to us? Isn't anything that is unfamilar to us deemed alien? If it weren't deemed alien, it might have a name rather just a description. In a multidimensional world, there is really nothing alien to us. Everything is a part of us. Whether we remember it or not, it still doesn't make it alien although it may still seem unfamiliar. Some people call it the shadow self. Others call it extraterrestrials. And still others call these manifestations other-dimensional focuses. This newsletter explores the gift of "unofficial information": That information that comes to us as strange, unique, and slightly out there. In a multidimensional world, everything that is out there is first "in here" and so we go on to explore yet another fascinating aspect of Self.

Duality Trap: Arrogance

Recently, in a German tabloid interview Tom Cruise was asked if he believed in aliens. Cruise replied:

"Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe?"

"Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know,"

Whether we agree or disagree with Tom Cruise's statement, one thing is for sure: our truths are not necessarily other people's truths. As usual, what may be deemed to be the absolute truth in Tom's belief systems can be just a reflection or one aspect of a phenomena that isn't fully understood. What may be "alone" to Tom may be "at One" to others. What may be aliens to Tom may be "other selves" to others. What may be little gray men to some may be hallucinations to others. There is definitely something going on out there (or in here, as the case might be) but what is the actual truth behind it all? Will there ever be one truth that fits everyone?

Arrogance is not, as some may suggest, believing what we want to believe despite evidence to the contrary. Rather, arrogance is not allowing others the choice to believe what they choose to believe and discounting other people's personal truths based solely on our own personal truths. This entire world is experienced through belief systems. We would not be in physical form if we didn't agree to use them as our tools for experiencing this physical reality. What belief system we choose to align with is purely a personal choice. We can choose to believe in Martians or we can choose to believe in Science. We can choose to believe in God or we can choose to believe in no God. We can choose to believe in Psychiatry or we can choose to believe in Scientology. In the end, these belief systems become our personal truths -- however they are not absolute truths. When arrogance meets arrogance, in terms of two people unwilling to accept each other's points of view regardless of whether agreement is there or not, what we automatically create is conflict and hostility. This is our choice. Differences in beliefs do not require conflict. It is our choice in how we meet differences in our lives. Everyone has a right to believe whatever they want to believe -- even Tom Cruise or Matt Lauer -- even if those two truths are in that moment diametrically opposed. In the end, it matters not whether Tom Cruise believes in aliens or whether Matt Lauer takes prescription medications. These are personal choices and do not require agreement from anyone outside themselves for acceptance to take place.

In order to dissapate the automatic reaction that takes place when we encounter personal differences, it is important to learn to speak our truths in ways that assert who we are but do not discount another individual's reality. Or sometimes silence may be chosen as a valuable tool as well. By expressing allowance in our own lives people begin to feel free to allow others their choices as well. By doing so we will learn that the only true "War of The Worlds" lies in the inner conflicts we choose to have within ourselves that we create in our own reality.
