聽神談關於【宇宙萬物「自我覺知」的層次】
一切生命都是在動的能量(All of life is energy in motion.)。沒有東西是恆常不動的。完全沒有。在宇宙裡，沒有一樣東西是靜止的。一切都在動。而這個「動」即是「改變」。
尼爾：可不可能有些東西會動，卻仍保持原狀 ？例如我花園裡的石頭看起來和一、二十年前一模一樣。甚至，和一百年前一樣。
宇宙裡的能量並非全以「相同的速度或頻率」───或你可以說「相同的意識層次」───在震動。
「全然自我覺知的能量」以較快速的方式移動，以產生差異(Energy that is totally aware of Itself moves in faster ways to produce difference.)。不是全然自我覺知的能量，則以非常緩慢的方式移動，一再地產生與先前存在的幾乎相同的模式，直到那模式經過一個非常長久的時間，修改了它自己。
尼爾：所以，那就是 為什麼石頭看起來好像保持不變，而我的外表卻年年都在改變的原因。
年年嗎？會不會是月月？實際上，應該說是天天都在變，雖然那些每天的改變沒被注意到───就像石頭裡面的改變。
以較慢速度震動的能量系統，比較可信賴、比較牢靠、比較穩定。這正是因為它們一再地產生與先前存在的模式相同，直到那模式經過一個非常長久的時間才改變它自己。
舉例來說，宇宙就是以這樣的模式旋轉。你們的銀河，以相同的方式旋轉了億萬年，而你可以指望它以相同的模式旋轉更多個億萬年。
這全都與自我覺知的層次(levels of self-awareness)有關。
尼爾：你是說，石頭是有 自我覺知 的嗎？
每樣東西都是自我覺知的，只是自我覺知的層次不同：高度自我覺知的能量，永遠在追求變得更加自我覺知(Everything is self-aware, but levels of self-awareness differ：Highly self-aware energy always seeks to become more self-aware.)。 一旦一個能量系統逐步增加自我覺知的程度，它會更想追求更大的自我覺知。
尼爾：「曾經滄海難為水。一旦見識過巴黎，你如何叫他們待得住鄉下呢？」
沒錯。你知道越多，你越想知道；你體驗越多，你越想體驗。這是生命的本質。
生命透過生命的過程本身，追求更多生命。(Life seeks more life through the process of Life Itself.)
真的是這樣。我在此所說的是，能量震動得越快，它就會震動得更加快速。
摘自《重新定義神》第6章
All of life is energy in motion. Nothing stands still. Nothing. Not a single thing in the Universe is static. All is moving. And movement is change.
Neale: Can’t some things move and still remain the same? The rock in my garden looks exactly the same today as it did ten years ago. Twenty years ago. Heck, a hundred years ago.
Not all of the energy in the Universe is vibrating at the same speed or frequency— or what you might call the same level of consciousness.
Energy that is totally aware of Itself moves in faster ways to produce difference. Energy that is not totally aware of itself moves very slowly, producing over and over again nearly the same pattern that existed before, until that pattern alters itself over a very long period of time.
Neale: So that’s why the rock looks as if it’s staying the same, while my appearance changes from year to year.
Year to year? Try month to month. Actually, day to day, although those day-to-day changes, like the changes in the rock, are not noticed. Energy systems that vibrate at lower rates of speed are more dependable, more reliable, more stable.
This is precisely be cause they “produce, over and over again, the same pattern that existed before, until that pattern alters itself over a very long period of time.”
The universe, for instance, spins in such a pattern. Your Milky Way has been spinning in the same way for billions of years, and you can count on it to spin the same way for billions of years more.
It all has to do with levels of self- awareness.
Neale: Are you saying that rocks are self-aware?
Everything is self-aware, but levels of self-awareness differ. Highly self-aware energy always seeks to become more self- aware. Once an energy system becomes increasingly aware of itself, it seeks to be- come more and more self-aware.
Neale: “How’re ya gonna keep ’em down on the farm, once they have seen Paris?”
Exactly. The more you know, the more you want to know. The more you experience, the more you want to experience. This is the nature of Life. Life seeks more Life through the Process of Life Itself.
That’s poetic.
It’s also true. So, what I am saying here is that the faster an energy vibrates, the faster it is going to vibrate.
