Next Age Basics – Unity Consciousness

This is the key to the understanding and integration of the other four next age concepts. The main reason that the next age is often called unity consciousness. The concept that we as humans are one with each other and all things is the single biggest difference from our present belief that we are separate and alone.

One with all things. An easy statement to make but a difficult one to explain and equally hard for us to truly, in our hearts and souls, believe. My explanation could fill a book, but in this article I will share with you my journey to the place of knowing that we are one. My intent is not to convince you that unity consciousness is real. I know that’s not possible. I want to pass on my experiences and perspective in the hope that you can feel the truth for yourself. I hope is to create a space for you to examine how oneness may or may not make sense to you.

The unity concept is the foundation that gives clarity and understanding to the other concepts I will discuss in this series, so needless to say an essential aspect of our journey to creating a new planet earth.

Throwing around nice words like “unity” and “love for all things” and “we are all the same” may be alright for the feminine or emotional aspects of our selves but I can hear the male, logical, analytical self saying “show me.” I know, because for the majority of my life I looked at things from a male perspective. I wouldn’t accept ideas on faith alone. I needed to be shown some proof.

It wasn’t until I woke up in 2000, after a life changing event, that my right brain woke up, making it easier for me to understand the idea of oneness. It wasn’t for a couple years after that I found some left brain evidence that solidified it into my being. So I will spend a lot of time talking to the people who need some pseudo scientific proof and know that the right brain feminine aspects don’t need this to understand the connectedness of all things.

Unity Consciousness

Even though we are in a consciousness of separation, unity is one thing that we as humans have ingrained in us from birth. Starting literally in the womb where mother is connected to child with the umbilical cord. This connectedness carries on with us into the unity of marriage, then family, then extends to race or religion. We can easily feel and understand this concept when we go that far in our description but once we start talking of things outside of that is where unity usually ends.

It stems from the fear of the unknown. From the lack of understanding and knowledge about a race or nationality. From seeing people as different if they have different skin color or have different customs or beliefs. Fearing them. Or judging them as not normal or possibly a threat to our families or way of life. When we are introduced to a culture or person that is different from us we quickly recognize that there is no difference. How many of us has had that happen? Our idea of oneness is then extended to them. Taking away the ignorance of not knowing them immediately eliminates the fear.

This is the first step in expanding our consciousness out from our immediate sphere of experience. Factors that are accomplishing this result are the advent of global travel, mass media and of course recently, the world wide web. We can quickly and easily obtain information about different countries and people which is eliminating the fear of the unknown and allowing us to understand that the human race is all the same. We all having the same experiences in life. With global communications we are now able to reach out and interact with people all over the globe which allows us to see the similarities.

It has been in the last century that this ability to connect globally has started. I believe it is an essential part of us creating new human behavior in the next age. The idea of the existence of mass consciousness has been reserved to people inhabiting the small area in which they lived.

Now with our present methods of communication it is possible to experience things from a global consciousness, making the idea of unity consciousness much easier to accomplish. There is a scientific explanation for this phenomenon. It is called a grid or web that surrounds the earth connecting all of us together. Have you ever had the experience of being with a group of people and you all had the same thought at once. We like to chalk those times up to coincidence, but is there really any such thing as coincidence? If you have ever noticed in nature how a species seem to practice non-verbal communication, seeming to know what the other is going to do. They do this because each species has their own web that they tap into that relays their intentions to each other.

There are actually three grids of consciousness surrounding the earth: the primal, the duality and the unity grid. Humans are at least as advanced (well, maybe) as any other species so why would the concept of a grid to precipitate human communication be so hard to believe. It has been known since the 40’s that there is a geo-magnetic grid encompassing the earth that was there for unexplained reasons. This is the web that connects us together. The web of love. Ironically, the Internet is also called a web and the concept is the same.

After my awakening, when I was completely turned around to being right brained dominant. I totally believed that we were one with all things yet, if asked, I could not give any kind of scientific explanation for my belief. As time went on and as I examined the unity concept, my old habits of left-brained analyzing kept creeping in. Then I found two sources of information that quieted my left brain tendencies and gave me a clear understanding of unity consciousness. One was Drunvalo Melchizedek’s 2 volume series called “The Ancient Secret Of The Flower Of Life”.

The Flower Of Life

Drunvalo gave me an extremely detailed scientific explanation of the creation of all things. His book goes into a detailed dissection of the sacred geometries of the flower of life. He explained that in this symbol is the blueprint for all of creation. he explains the Genesis pattern which showed me how all things in the universe were created from the same beginnings. That we are all made from the same stuff. Perfectly logical explanations for why we are one and how we came to be.

He also gives a detailed look at Leonardo Da Vinci’s canon and a canon drawn by Vitruvius, a Greek engineer some 1600 years earlier, which illustrated the  creation of all things and the levels of consciousness that humans have been in and are evolving to right now. How all things in nature followed these patterns of creation with using the Fibonacci series as their guide. He showed how the geometric ratios that are in our bodies are replicated in nature, in the ratios of the pyramids in Egypt, the earth, the moon, the orbits of the planets, in all things. Lots of pretty huge concepts but amazing left brained stuff.

Drunvalo also gets into the creation of the three grids of human consciousness. The first grid or first dimension being the primal grid or aboriginal grid. The second is the duality grid of which we now use, even though there are native cultures that use the first grid as their perspective on being to this day. The duality grid’s geometry is male oriented which is the reason for the male dominance of our cultures throughout our recorded history. The third grid is the Christ grid or unity grid which is a balanced grid of male and female influences or simply put, unified. That’s is where we are headed.

The primal consciousness believes in the concept of oneness with all things. This makes it a harmonic grid. In harmony with all things. The duality grid is disharmonic. Where the prevalent belief is separateness. This consciousness breeds wars and separation which has been a common theme throughout our history. A consciousness where we can’t see the connectedness of all things. This aspect is the reason the duality grid is disharmonic. The third grid or Christ grid is where humanity returns to the concepts of unity, cooperation, universal love. Returns to a harmonic existence. Possessing the knowledge of our oneness.

Anyone who knows music knows that firsts and thirds are harmonic. These descriptions of each grid are not judgmental, just an explanation of attributes of each level of consciousness. This is a huge topic and one where you may want to delve into but I will only touch on the main points so you can see how this information helped me make ’sense’ of the concept of unity.

It was all I needed to satisfy my analytic brain. These are not books that everyone would enjoy. Especially you right brainers. It also helped that I was approaching this with a pretty solid belief that the unity concept was real. But if you can get through it there are so many topics discussed that I am sure there would be something in them that would help anyone in their understanding of unity consciousness.

The God Code

The second source that was instrumental for my understanding of the oneness of all things was the book by Gregg Braden called “The God Code.” Gregg had a career as a senior computer systems engineer in the aerospace and defense industry. How’s that for a scientific analytical brain. He has written many books and is a New York Times best-selling author so his credentials are pretty mainstream.

He worked for 12 years to come up with this information with the intent of furthering peoples understanding of the oneness of all things. He unearthed a remarkable discovery that he shares with us in this book. He applied the alphabets of Hebrew and Arabic to a modern chemistry analysis of our DNA to reveal a code that gives us a clue to the mystery of our origins. Using the elements that form our DNA: hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and carbon or as the ancients called them fire, air, water and earth, he matched their numeric values to the values of the letters in these languages. Gregg showed that there was a message encrypted into every cell of human DNA.

The message reads God/Eternal within the body. Expanding the translation it means humankind is one family united through a common heritage. Preserved within each cell of every human being, this message is repeated regardless of race, color, religion or ancestry. This code is so universal that the identical message can be translated into Hebrew or Arabic, the two oldest present day languages and obviously the two peoples that have the most to gain from accessing this message of unity. Gregg says;

“The discovery of God’s name within the essence of all life demonstrates that we are related not only to one another, but also to life itself, in the most intimate way imaginable. From a single blade of grass, to the vast expanses of uncharted rain forests; from a fruit fly peering at us through the many facets of a compound eye, to the piercing stare from our nearest primate relatives-any logic that preys on our differences ultimately dissolves with the evidence that all life is made from the chemical equivalent of a single name. With such a common bond, we are given a reason to look beyond the issues that may have separated us in the past.”

Unity Of Self

This has been my journey of discovery to truly believing in the oneness of all things. As I said this is the foundation to adopting the other concepts that follow. Knowing that I am God also is rooted in the knowledge that God is in all things. Releasing judgment becomes easy when I know that you are me and I am you. I have discussed the concept of unity in respect to things outside our selves but I have not mentioned another important part of unity consciousness.

The unity of ones self. The harmonizing of all parts of ourselves. The knowing that we are not right brained or left brained or that our body is separate from our mind or spirit. That all pieces work in harmony and co-operation. That we are neither male nor female. Just like god is neither male nor female. That we are not broken into separate parts, battling for control over the other. That the mind is an integral part of the whole and not to be judged as the controller of actions and therefore viewed as non spiritual compared with actions of the heart. When the concept of competition is released from our consciousness, it will include any competition within ones self. we will know that we are one entity working with love and compassion for the good of the whole.

This is the essence of unity consciousness. This is the result of us remembering who we truly are and how we relate to all things.  The concept of unifying ones self can be extended everything. So in the next post I will do that. (OMG there’s more) This is the longest one I promise.

The next part to help realize our connection is to look at the one that is often forgotten in modern society. Our connection to Mother earth.
