Back to ojjo and the simple life

Right, back to the thoughts of ojjo and we have a few topics which still require an introduction.

• Basic Forms of Life
• parallel universes

The most basic forms of life can hopefully provide the most honest answers to the meaning of life. An insect (we could go simpler if you prefer) has the ability to suffer and yet we see no evidence of love, fulfillment or other emotions. Mating is instinctive and one can only guess why they have such a propensity to fight for life. They seem to inflict no pain on themselves (lemmings excluded) and when you view how the ant have such a structured society it certainly begs questions to be asked.

Little Girl of mine are they following you

Little Girl of mine, did you kill that boy? So what was your weapon of choice? Did you shoot that gun, or did you use that knife, so chillingly reserved, for all those lovers delight? Did you use your fists, and little Girl of mine did you come? Did you crawl around in smiling grace, or did you panic into a run? Did you feel that warmth, or hide, in all your whitewashed thoughts? Little Girl of mine did you kill that Girl, on bloodied fields this day? Did you hear the screams, then speak to explain, of how you are so sane? Little Girl of mine, do you want to die, I can feel your sorrows cry, though don’t you find that fun is lust and lost without me there? Perhaps you look to heart to see how similar you are to me. Please look around on these your grounds and tell me you’ve not won. Speak soft your voice, light touch your feet, can you smell your own deceit? Little Girl of mine, alone in time, alone on these plains today. Now, Little Girl of mine, are you free? With all this talk of hunting fate it is the only way to be.

Outside

The honeymoon was to be perfect, the afternoon was cool and the couple stood hand in hand, watching the sun set over the ocean, misted by the light rain. The lovers kissed before returning to their suite. And the raindrop hides from his tears as he climbs into an empty nest, seeking shelter in the corner, in the darkness. Looking over the rain-swept sea to a place where his lover falls, waiting and watching as the sun sets. Virgin sunset forgotten as though he had seen it a thousand times before, wind breathing constantly, raindrops are screaming. The smell makes us shiver as the warmth flows through our veins. It is the smell of death, recognised instinctively and he whispers quietly to himself as the end is near. To have spent that moment with someone whom you are destined to touch makes me feel alive, but I can’t help but think it is in death we shall be. For you must wait a while as I complete that which I control. It shall be our gift, you will not be alone, our leaves are shed off the same branch. The newly-weds made love, content, with the sound of the rain splashing outside.

Vision

Can you see it? Faint glow touching the frigid night. The light sparked, but what it trigged, I do not know. Explosion… the damage, yet to be known. A piece offering of silence, clarity. Then, thundered a thousand veins, voicing untold memories in that single heartbeat. Sinking, burning embers, the shaking, stormy seas, ancient captains await while naked patrons dance on the sea floor. The breath of onlooking urchins are felt against the current. The battle is not yet lost as mutilated fingers grip the swollen surface. Determination, pull, you must - are you out? Swim now, amongst the seagulls, dive through the sand, for you are now free not of your journey, but of your vision.

The Darker side

Supporting the hunter and encouraging the strong, dominant prowess, there evolves what is wrong. What is warped? What is right? To the creatures of the soil with heart of no home and of blood with no body. To the twisted thoughts that hide in a crowd. To the killer that stalks, boarded in their mind and to the prey that shuts itself down before the kill.

Return

Prepare your mind and mould your emotions tonight, do this well. Build your foundations strong, My child, and I too, shall decorate myself in our last darkness. Tomorrow we shall fight our daemons, peace be our background which we will glimpse through bloodied senses, but My child, should victory comfort us, we will live on our battlefield, amongst our enemies, favoured by our sightless eyes. In a light that shall never fade, a pure spirit shall be borne and we shall return.

Life without Society

For the religious folk out there, consider the difference in the following:
A person brought up in a modern society as a Christian who attends church on a weekly basis and feels strongly about their beliefs.
A person who lives deep in the Congo (African) jungle who has never heard of the Christian religion and believes in the All Knowing Crocodile God of the river.

These two people are living life at the same time, which according to popular belief is a grain of sand in the ocean floor of Gods creation. The popular belief amoung the Christians is that if you do not worship the correct God, you will not follow the righteous path to heaven and hence the spread of missionaries around the world. Surely this then means they believe that they hold knowledge that others don't and if others don't obtain this knowledge they will not follow the path of Gods love. How can this view of life be compared with their view of God who creates all things equal, has a love of all men equal and has given every person the greatest gift of all, this life?

Do you ever lie in bed at night and just before you sleep, when you lightly close your eyes (allowing only a slight bit of light in), see shapes and faces milling around?
No doubt this is your subconscious which is slowly becoming active and getting ready for your dreams. I would further imagine that the people saying that they also see these shapes are those that have vivid and numerous dreams. Those that don't, probably don't remember the majority of their dreams. The faces are clear and changeable and always seem highly related to what was done did during the day. So powerful is the ability to focus on images and alter them that the change from awake into sleep must be an instant and sudden blur. If the subconscious is so powerful and so elusive of the patterns of time and earth, perhaps it is then possible to turn to a life of this order, perhaps this is a taste of the next energy level although our firm anchor within the creation of earth will not let us progress.
What of ghosts and spirits? Religion and spirituality?
Even those wholly opposed to the existence of ghosts will admit to their belief in Angels and the work of God.

Love, lust and the afterlife

For the romantics it is as important as the meaning of life, perhaps even, it is the meaning of life. So you love your partner, they pass and you find love again. How do you feel this will affect your soul? If you believe in one life as opposed to many lives or if you believe in the journey of the soul with an intrinsic romance cumulating as you rise to a higher energy level, this question will elate you or deflate you. Do you believe in a soul group as popularised by the Celestine Prophesies? Are we integrating with the same souls on the path of the soul? How do you view your siblings and lost relatives? Is love an earthly emotion and are we being naive to think this exists in the afterlife? So many questions...

Eternity or end

What happens when you reach a higher energy level? Will I get bored?
How do you see time and its effect? We could possibly be viewing time as an earthly restraint which does not exist at a higher energy level. If you believe time is as it stands then who do you believe created God? And so the questions revolve and revolve until we come down to one fact, which is this, if you believe in God then that God must have put earthly barriers in place to deny us the logic of knowing the meaning of life and the way the universe works. Our lack of intelligence could be viewed as an earthly barrier as well. If you don’t believe in God, you must surely have a few questions regarding time and the coincidental explosion of life. Where did time start?

Purpose of life

To experience the beauty of the gift of life, perhaps to experience suffering so we are grateful for the afterlife, or perhaps we are here to entertain higher beings or God.

Fellow man or cinema of the soul

Do you believe the person next to you is real?
Perhaps everything around you is made by God but centered around your universe, i.e. those people do not have the same feelings and are not partaking in the same journey as you. The Matrix trilogy proved how many people warmed up to this idea, but 'ouch'...
This is a dangerous thought as society as we know it is built around a person’s ability to feel remorse and guilt with regard to the treatment of others. This view point does however, lead to the possible elimination of the journey of the soul theory, but asks serious questions as to who is with you, and how alone you may be.

Journey of the soul

Assuming you believe in God, God has given you the ability to think on your own and as such you should not be afraid to take a stand and commit to your opinions. Answer the following but have a definite opinion of your own:
• When do you believe life begins?
• Do you believe a God would give souls only one life with which varied challenges would be faced? I.e. Would God create all things unequal?

Consider the following scenario:
A man lives to be 96 years old and lives a true and great life with a wealthy family, while an infant is born and dies when it is only a few hours old. Do you believe in this instance that both souls progress to the afterlife? What is the purpose then of life if you consider the infant? This scenario is vital to any belief system. A journey of the soul supports a view that God creates all things equal and that a soul progresses through predefined challenges in its move to a higher energy level, this then brings up the question of destiny another topic entwined with the meaning of life.

God

Yes/No - Please tick the box. It is that simple.

I seem to recall a movie about Sherlock Holmes where Dr Watson asked Sherlock if he believed in God, and Sherlock picked up a rose from a nearby garden and held it up and pronounced that only a God could create something so complex and so beautiful and as such it is logical that a God must exist.

Life of ojjo - Part I

Let us swim quietly through the life and philosophy of ojjo.

We will begin with the obvious and then move further into the depths of ojjo. The first point I would like to make is that the questions of faith are simple, the structure which can be followed is simple and therefore the answers may be simple when not moulded by the collective complexity.
• Do you believe in God (whether Allah, Buddha, or the Crocodile God) ?
• Do you believe in reincarnation (referred to as 'the journey of the soul')?
• What do you see as the purpose of life?
• How do you view your fellow man (real and independent or embodied in your journey)?
• Do you believe in an end or in eternity and how do you justify?
• Love, lust and the afterlife, just what is going on?
• A life without society... lonely, religious or pure?

Intro

And here we are,
one of all,
part of something great,
yet what we are a part of, is all we know.

There are questions which may be asked,
there are questions which may be answered,
and there is that which we are not to know
