You’ve just had an example of one of the grossest and most obvious Reality Shifts we’ve had in a couple of years. What happens is this: you wake up one morning, and unaccountably, absolutely everything is somehow different. The differences are generally subtle and hard to detect unless you’re a very experienced XD (Extra-Dimensional) Voyager, and you happen to have a very good CROSS-MEMORY.

The CROSS-MEMORY is what doesn’t disappear when you cross over into another parallel world, which happens on a tiny scale every day, but this recent boundary crossing was enough of a whopper to make you sit up and take notice.

At last, a clear and easy to understand Reality Shift Transition that I can point to and we can examine it in detail.

GUILDENKRANTZ EFFECT

When a major Rift and Shift occurs, you FEEL it, but usually can’t SEE it. In this case, it’s quite visible. The Guildenkranz effect is this: one minute you’re one place, and the very next moment, you’re somewhere else.

I refer to the play, Guildenstern & Rosenkranz here; whenever the characters are needed onstage to play a scene, they suddenly shoot there, fall there, stumble in there, whatever it takes to get them to the right place at the appointed time.

In a Reality Shift, the receiving end literally pulls you to it, you don’t go there, so the net result is:

Wherever you are now, that’s where you’ve always been.

In a strong Reality Shift, several VESTIGIAL memories and items can remain through the crossover. Within three months, the previous reality will seem like a dream, distant and vague.

Why distant and vague? Because in this reality, the things you remember from the previous incarnation or reality will be hard to reconcile with the present reality structure.

It’s hard to believe unless you’re an experienced traveler, but the way it is now, here, is the way it has always been, here in this reality. SpaceBuddhaa has lived at Jim & Mary’s ever since I can remember, but that’s the I that lives in this reality zone.

My CROSS-MEMORY tells me that things were very different back in the other reality, but I’m experienced enough to not have to wipe out that previous memory from another reality.

In this reality, SpaceBuddhaa never came here, and therefore didn’t put us on justin.tv, so in this Reality, we’re getting onto live video broadcast for the very first time.

But from her Secret Mountain Retreat in Canada, the co-founder of Prosperity North, whom you know as SpaceBuddhaa, had the foresight to register us with livestream about three and a half years ago, when the Reality Shift started to grind into place.

SpaceBuddhaa is very psychic sensitive. In the previous reality, she was powerfully aware of the BIG CHANGE that was coming, as any highly trained psychic sensitive would be, and from that viewpoint, welcomed the Work Opportunity, even though nobody knew exactly how the Reality Shift would manifest, and the timing was unclear.

Well, now we do know, and it makes perfect WORK SENSE. The Work Takes Care of its Own, as the saying goes, and it does. Everyone in our community is now in the right place to do their Bodhisattva Work, and that’s all to the good.

My job is to prepare you for Work, wherever you might end up doing it — I have no personal interest, and my job description does not include collecting people to live with in close intimate quarters.

Taking stock, we have enough staffers here to do the job, and folks out there can do their jobs online, which makes physical location at the physical ashram obsolete, useless and expensive.

So you’ve just had a whallopingly obvious example of a Reality Shift. Let’s take stock of the change, using a simple “compare” technique:

PREVIOUS REALITY:

1.  The House, barn and Granny House were total messes, showing the result of 40 years of institutional style neglect. Grime streaked down the walls of the house, and there were paths of foot-traffic everywhere. The hall carpet was torn and worn. The handles on the kitchen cabinets were junk plastic. The countertops were Arborite and had been used to receive garbage, dirty dishes and kids’ food stuff for years and years without repair.

2.   We were on justin.tv and had been for 7 1/2 years with 5.5 million viewers. There was no sign of trouble.

3.   Jedrik was here as a student, until SpaceBuddhaa, the spiritual teacher, manifested in her place, about 3.5 years ago, to prepare herself for The August Shift. The morphing was clearly and strongly evident, if you compare her “look” today with her “look” yesterday. It’s two very different people. The SpaceBuddhaa you see today never lived in California, and one look at her, and you know it’s true — they’re two entirely different individuals, one a rather eager and bright student, and the other, a more serious and dedicated individual who has been prepared over the years in a higher space, for much higher things.

4.   My internet connection could not be established for over six months with no apparent cause. Claude repeatedly tried to repair it, but to no avail.

5.   Our email had been down for over three months without us being advised by the service provider, and they refused our phone calls. If you emailed us at this time, your email did not get through, and we had no way of knowing that it hadn’t.

6.   We were preparing here for fashion shows, art auctions, cosmetic events and trunk shows for the spring, all timed to coincide with SpaceBuddhaa’s return.

7.   The Temple at the Ashram was unfinished, due to my inability to get into Second Life.

8.   We were in the middle of the worst drought in recent California history, and rain was not predicted. Dry, dry, dry, for months and months, with no hope of respite or relief.

9.   Our electric service was just fine, no problems for the past six months at least.

IMPORTANT ADDITION — Add to all this the fact that yesterday the means by which we make apps has radically changed. ALERT TO GAIL: all your templates must now be changed to accommodate the New Reality.

Is that outrageous, changing all the technical requirements to make an app, suddenly and without warning? Isn’t it a crime that our service provider accidentally erased their database and source codes all of a sudden? Isn’t it awful that justin.tv closed down overnight without warning?

But none of those things happened; that’s only from the perspective of an XD voyager — that’s you — who remembers how it used to be. That is, I hope you can remember. It fades fast, and will soon be gone, unless you take steps to prevent it. One means by which you can enlarge your spiritual footprint is to remember these world-changes; they can expand your view of time-space and reality.

PRESENT REALITY

1.   The house is absolutely gorgeous. You wouldn’t recognize it. Literally. It’s a different house, and I know you’ll agree that you’ve never been here before. A somewhat similar place, but not this place. It isn’t merely cosmetic; the structure is different, strikingly so.

Here, in this reality, Magic Car is fully detailed inside and out, yet we never sent her in for the work, where in the previous reality, she was a total mess, the result of a year’s worth of no interior cleaning or expensive detailing maintenance. Now, without anyone doing anything, she shines inside & out.

The barn is totally different. There’s plenty of space now, where before there had been nothing but clutter.

The Granny House is drop-dead gorgeous, clean and fresh, everything working in the kitchen — we didn’t used to have one there, but this Granny House has a kitchen, and a beautiful shrine in the front room. The formerly dark dirty walls are brilliantly clean and newly painted, but WE NEVER DID THE WORK.

The big jacuzzi bathtub that used to be there was “replaced” by a shower/tub enclosure, and all the faucets, doorknobs, all the fittings, are brand new Kohler fittings, just as they are in the main house kitchen, where you’ll see antiqued brass fittings on all the cabinet doors, beautiful stained wood and stained glass and brass and copper and splash guards and brand-new stainless steel dish-drains, ceramic tile inlaid countertops and our “new” stove and dishwasher which were different in the previous reality.

The wood trim in the house is, in this reality, all finished and beautiful, the floors are unwaxed and refinished with a fine thin coat of protective seal. The ceramic tiles are brand-new in the back and front entryways. The lighting is totally different from what you might be able to recall, if you paid attention when you were here last time.

You would not recognize the living room which is 8 feet longer, has a different skylight, as does the dining room, and there are birds and lizards everywhere, and what’s more, they’ve always been here in this particular reality spectrum.

The atrium is unrecognizable from the previous, with an 11 foot tall metal sculpture right in the middle. All the beams of the house are different and they’re noticeably a different length. There are other signs & portents of change, but you’d have had to use high attention and good cross-memory to be able to spot the differences from here.

There are Persian carpets everywhere, yet we didn’t buy them, nor were they donated. They’re just here, where before, they weren’t. There are a lot of things like that now.

A few more clues from the house & garden — the Zen Garden is trimmed neatly, the brick walkways that I laid down 35 years ago here are beautiful and still quite useable.

The large pond in the Zen Garden is finished, has a fountain and waterfall; yes, it’s complete and working, and what’s more, in this reality, it always has been. The stream doesn’t leak in this reality. The back lawn is a lawn, not high bush country. The food garden is lush and productive and we have a banner crop of figs, nuts and grapes.

The front gate is beautiful and clean, the trees and bushes well-trimmed. The lights along the driveway are new and clean and they all work.

My desk is in a totally different place than it was in the previous, and I have two wooden filing cabinets in here, not the half-pint metal ones that plagued the previous reality.

The BRAND NEW wood decks are on the upstairs balcony outside my art studio, which is much larger and completely cleaned out and ready for art use.

There’s a brand-new redwood deck at the brick plaza, where we used to park Magic Car. We now park her back a bit, because the brick plaza and large fountain make it impossible to park there.

You’ll find that the entryway to the house has been “redesigned”. Actually, there are several places that are actually built differently than the previous. In the master bedroom, there are eight darkwood ceiling beams where before there had been only four, and the bathroom is now almost twice the size it had been.

The music studio is totally different. If you’ve worked in there, you won’t recognize it, either. There’s more, lots more, but that’s enough to give you a clue as to how to log items to compare realities. Here are the other items:

2.   Justin.tv never even existed in this reality. In this reality, we never even heard of it. There’s no trace of it or us on it anywhere in this reality. To really drive the nail in, there is now no paperwork remaining that proves we were ever there, just vestigial (present, but weak & latent, meaning unmanifested) memories of the “fact” that we used to be on justin.tv. Naturally we’re well trained to CREATE AN EMOTIONALLY AND MENTALLY ACCEPTABLE AND RATIONAL PATH that explains how we got from where we were to where we are now, but that’s all a total fiction, created by the mind to explain a sudden shift in reality, which brains and human minds can’t handle at all, or there wouldn’t be so many brands of downers on the market.

You don’t have to believe the automatically created brain-maze path that explains how you came to be here. At least, I hope you’re an experienced-enough traveler to not need the explanation. Simple acceptance of your state, condition and location is plenty enough to keep you on the Path. You didn’t decide to jump here, you were pulled here by grapple.

In fact, none of this reality-shift was your decision. It was prompted by the fact that the work has taken notice of you, and put you where you need to be for your next step toward the next world. If you can’t handle a simple reality-shift, how can you possibly handle a change in Being?

3.   SpaceBuddhaa is working well from her Canadian home, and why should she not? She’s operated from there for years, and she and Kyle have been a couple ever since I can remember, in this Reality Zone. She has done her work from her Canadian homeland for about 8 years now, and has never left there except to come to workshops here, of course with Kyle.

This is the way it has always been, here, in this reality; they have always been together, and their work in this reality zone is going well. There’s no reason for SpaceBuddhaa to be living in California, far away from her place at Prosperity North and with her partner Kyle, so in this world, she never came to California, except for a few short visits for workshops and such, during which times she left a few boxes of stuff in a Penn Valley storage unit.

In this reality zone, I happen to have access to the cause/effect pathway memories, as I hope you’ll also learn to use and maintain; I remember all the alternative reality issues and events really well, and you will too.

You will accept the present reality as THE WAY IT’S ALWAYS BEEN, just as soon as the vestigials from the previous vanish, and they surely will, unless you do something to make them remain with you, such as making notes in your personal or voyaging journal.

Memories of other realities tend to erase themselves. That’s why you cannot easily recall prior lifetimes, especially if you can’t recall prior realities in the same lifetime. If you have to sing “Happy Birthday to You” just to remember your name, you’re certainly not an experienced voyager, nor could you ever hope to be.

There is in this reality zone no evidence that SpaceBuddhaa was ever here.

There is no workstation at the crow’s nest on the barn mezzanine, nor any evidence of a workstation next to Jewel’s, no jacuzzi tub, no sleeping space in the Granny House, no clothing in the closets, nor any evidence whatever that she’d ever been living here for any length of time, and in this world, she hasn’t.

Forget about all the crap that automatically comes up about how to came to be where you are; you don’t need to explain it, rationalize it, justify it or make yourself wrong for being where you are. When you can give that storytelling and rationalizing up, you’ll be a better voyager. Just accept that suddenly, through no “fault” of your own, you’re someplace else.

YOU ARE NOT GUILTY FOR CHANGING REALITIES.

Humans love to make others guilty. Make sure that you rid yourself of at least that one nasty human habit. Guilt creates control, Mr. Smart. This is Kaos. We don’t control others here. You are not guilty for being at your appointed Work-Post, nor should anyone make anyone feel guilty for making life-changes even on a local personal scale.

This is a school, and as you learn how to handle life, love, the universe & everything, things will change, conditions will  change, and you need to learn to change easily with the flow, not to get hung up, not to get all outraged or emotional about a simple change in your Modus Operandi, your Place of Business.

Change is indicated and imperative. You learn to handle this in my online Death Course. Death is a form of change. Change is a form of Death. If you’re really here to learn the ropes of Bodhisattva life, you need to learn not to forgive — that implies guilt — but to accept the changes as they happen.

This is a real great and deep secret, but it takes work on your part to make it happen. Roll with the punches, go with the flow. I love nothing more than to end up in an advanced level with no money, no armor, no potions, no weapons and no skills. Haw, haw, gorby at his very best!

It would be good for you to learn this skill, which is a transcendent skill that does not die with the body-mind. It has to be learned low, then transferred high. I can show you how, if enough folks want to learn the technique.

But you have to be able to spot Reality Shifts before you can really do anything real.

4.   After almost half a year of mysterious outage, my internet connection suddenly works again. In this reality, I took a break from internet stuff to do artwork, greeting cards and Orbs, and by golly, as an experienced traveler, the internet cutoff was a Big Clue that something BIG was up, and it was, as you can plainly see…or perhaps it’s already beginning to dim and fade….???

5.  Our email is still on the blink, thus demonstrating that miserable service providers can transcend almost anything.

6.   We are not preparing here for any fashion show or jewelry show, but we are preparing for a trunk show at Bob & Pam’s “Mana Beads” store in Nevada City, and as of yesterday, we’ve been enrolled as a booth vendor at the CELTIC FAIR, an event that in the previous reality, I said I’d never attend again. But here’s the thing; we never knew about it until yesterday afternoon, when we were informed that the booth had been secured AT OUR DIRECTION, meaning we planned it in this reality, but there is no evidence of that. So, we’re scheduled to sell my copper rings & bracelets and pagan greeting cards at the Celtic Fair this year, totally uncharacteristically and unexpectedly. It should be fun!

7.   I went into Second Life to assess what I’m going to have to do to the place to make it right. Lucky you have that condo to make the kind of money we’ll need to spend to get it looking right. I’ve hired Otho, and he’ll be here in the morning with his spray-cans and his notebook.

I went into the Ashram, and hey, all of a sudden, no problems whatsoever. I reworked the Temple, ran out of energy, will do more today. Strangely, I think I found the source of the sounds people have been hearing, and they do sound like people making love, but that’s not what it is.

It’s some sort of persistent sound thing that persists in the Ashram and has been there ever since I built the Clock Shop; it seems to be some sort of organ music that’s weird and mangled, and it won’t shut off, although it proclaims itself rather loudly.

I can see it in my admin screen, and hearing it, I can easily understand why the folks who heard it reported it to me; I’ll ask Claude for help in getting it out of there. It happens at various spots and various altitudes, crossing boundaries without really having the means to do it — I don’t understand how to get rid of it.

Gosh, it really does sound like sex or something equally gritty and grunty, but I assure you that it isn’t. If someone is actually having cybersex in the Ashram — and it looks to me like I spotted the actual, and quite funny, cause of the alarm — I never said you couldn’t. Don’t do it anywhere but in private, however — I really don’t want to see your ass hanging out on the Ashram grounds, but again, that’s your own business.

I am not a prude. You can dress any way you like, even transparently, if that’s your taste and inclination. It isn’t mine; I have dressed my Avatar to take photos of clothing I made for the market, but wouldn’t consider wearing most of that around town.

Costume Ball? I love them, and encourage them wholeheartedly. Refer to sci-fi and fantasy cons for info and ideas. I’ll attend any costume event you schedule and fill, and I have a Samba Queen Dancer that you just won’t believe when you see your eyes — that can’t be right. Adjust the phrasing to make it come out the way you think it should, k?

By the way, there’s a persistent and very annoying drumming sound in the Cloister apartments, but I can’t isolate the source.

Having not been in the Ashram for half a year, I naturally had no idea that the organ sounds were what were being referred to as “sexual sounds”. I knew about that sound months ago, but never associated it with sexual sounds, but they’re right — it really does sound sexual. Perhaps the maker intended it to be, because it was part of one of those “chill out” rooms I bought before I knew how to build in Second Life.

I’m not a prude, and as a confirmed hands-off type teacher, I don’t tend to regulate people’s private lives or to inquire too much about them; besides, there’s not a story you could tell me about human beings that I haven’t heard a million times before, and believe it or don’t, I’m not exaggerating.

8.   In this reality, there is no drought, and there never was. In fact, for the third straight day, it’s still raining, and hasn’t stopped all this time, although it gets weaker and stronger from hour to hour.

A drought may come sometime this August, but the weather is already quite dark, cloudy and drippingly wet. In the previous reality, it was still hot, dry summer, with a string of days well above 100 degrees.

Now, and for the past three days, since the Reality Shift, it’s early fall, the trees are bright colors, and there’s a chill in the air, the smell of Halloween and harvest. The county fair is Friday.

Ray sold the Grass Valley Summer Street Fair, and the new owner canceled the music and the food, so nobody showed up. “I turned to my husband, as he then was, and said: Squiffy, this is the end of an era.” — reference, Beyond the Fringe

Sure, there’ll be some hot days ahead, there always are in August, but we’re deeply into fall — all the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray. I went for a walk on a winter’s day… I’d be safe and warm, if I was in L.A., California Dreamin’ on such a winter’s day.

Fact is, I knew Mama Cass really well; if she’d lived, I might well be in Hollywood in an entirely different reality, but regardless of where we are, we will always meet and learn to do our work together… and it is all about cooperation.

I watch and note and am aware of all the contributions made by every member of our work circle. I am totally up to date on YOUR activities, rest assured, and I appreciate and cherish your work and your participation, on whatever level you’re currently able to manifest.

Weather changes occur around important spiritual events. These signs & portents are watched carefully by those who know. Masters of Wisdom are aware that subtle signs can be seen, and they are unafraid of new realities.

I am an experienced voyager and adjust easily and readily and happily to new situations. I’m always Gorebagg the Lost, never knowing where I’m going to be tomorrow, and that’s what I mainly teach. How to roll with the punches, mutate with the flux, and go with the flow.

9.   Our electric service is just fine, no sign of any problem.

10.   The tenth item is by far the most telling. Literally overnight, the old system of creating our apps was replaced by an entirely new system, requiring tons of downloads of code and other messy stuff. WE HAVE TO REBUILD ALL OUR APPS! They were created in the previous reality, and don’t work here!

One example of this effect is in the Complete Compleat Enchanter by Fletcher Pratt & Sprague deCamp. InterDimensional Voyager Harold Shea tries to use a common “works first time every time” Zippo lighter in the new reality into which he has been propelled.

Hell, the Zippo lighter works perfectly in the science world, but in the world of magick, it doesn’t, nor does the flashlight, .45 caliber pistol, or the now-rusted formerly stainless steel knife-blade.

In the Galaxy SF story, Wall Around the World, by Theodore Cogswell, Porgy lives in a world of magick, where everyone uses a broomstick to get around, and he’s trying to build an airplane to get over the wall to the world of science.

It’s no coincidental “accident” that those three authors were personal friends of mine and family friends for many decades. Thanks to them, I have numerous places to point to where you can use a story framework to try to understand natural functions such as Time Shift and Reality Shift.

By now, you have some handle on how to concentrate your attention, and you have had some memory training. You also need to be able to handle the changes emotionally; remember that you didn’t decide to make this change. It happened to you. You didn’t set it up, or make it happen, but you can learn to roll with the punches and accept your new fate.

That fate will surely change at the next Reality Shift, upcoming not long from now.

Will you get used to it? John Lilly and I agreed on one important point — it’s not the changes, it’s the transitions. We’ll be working with this in the movements training and now that we’re here in this new reality, we’ll have, thanks to SpaceBuddhaa’s instinctive but unknowing anticipation of this very strong and widely noticeable transition, a continuous and unbroken video transmission on livestream on our own channel, which SpaceBuddhaa set up; Claude has written her an email requesting the admin info so we can use the channel to broadcast, hopefully today.

By the way, the lag is about 1/10th what it was on justin.tv, or would have been, had we ever been on it, which we haven’t…are you following all this?

Also, by this shift, we have a permanent worker in Canada for Prosperity North instead of an advanced student waiting for a Work-Post.

Prosperity North is in much better condition in this zone; here, it’s just on the verge of becoming fully functional, and that fits my primary work-purpose, to get YOU to work at your very own work-post; my job description does not include maintaining an old reality zone, and when you can let go of old realities, you’ll be a whole lot more free.

Keep in mind that most of your past never happened here, so there are bound to be discrepancies between your memories and the memories of those who were never where you just came from.

Oh, I dread trying to teach this; it’s so hard to wrap your brain around time-space and quantum leaps, which is why I recommend leaving the brain at home.

Humans are creatures of habit, and they don’t like sudden change of any kind, even for the better; they hate to actually alter their life style and circumstances.

Reality Shifts happen all the time, and if you’re working toward attention, presence and the waking state, you’ll need to get used to it and SOON.

In the Waking State, you’ll remember EVERYTHING, and won’t be able to ever forget it; you learn to roll with the punches.

If you understand what actually happened, you’ll realize that, from the viewpoint of this present reality, there was no change.

In this world, this is the way it has always been. I’ll be in-Ashram today working on the Temple again. Enjoy your New World. You have every right to be happy!!!

See You At The Top!!!
