Rage Against The Cage!

Every once in a while we all need to bust out of our daily routine and enjoy the freedom that is our birthright as citizens of the Universe. The Earth-matrix is a very restrictive cage that tries to force us into a uniform way of thinking and being so as to keep us from exploring the wider existential questions and discovering that the material plane is a mere, momentary illusion in our eternal existence as energy beings. It wants us to focus all our attention on the attainment of material goods in a “pursuit of happiness” that never ends. Like a hamster on a wheel, the matrix control system wants us to keep racing without questioning why we’re running and to what.

As Albert Einstein said it’s a “very persistent illusion” designed to be all encompassing and convincing. This is why those perceptive few who are able to live outside the “mind-cage” are resented and even persecuted by those who have chosen to fully embrace and live in the illusion. To be fair, there are many for whom it’s not a choice by reason of their incarnational intention. They came here to experience the limitation game to the fullest degree, therefore those of us who rebel against the matrix program and live outside the illusion are subconsciously seen by them as “game-spoilers” of sorts.

Personally, I try to respect everyone’s game even as I go about living life the way I choose- the way that brings me the most satisfaction. As I’ve said in previous blog articles, It gives me great pleasure to beat-the-system by building my own low stress, off-grid refuge (Skyborne Ranch Camp) where I can be my authentic self. At the same time, even my sanctuary can become a cage if I start feeling obligated that I have to build more and make improvements to this wonderful piece of property. Let’s face it, anything that we’re doing because we feel we have to, rather than because we want to, can become another cage. I’ve learned that it’s important to find a balance between my building projects and enjoying the illusion in the moment.

Even with all the turmoil these days as millions are waking up to and challenging the matrix system, (and it fighting back to maintain control) it’s not wrong to just get out there and enjoy the beauty of the material world. Which is what I did this week. I’ve always loved to travel, and doing so by motorcycle gives me a sense of freedom and exhilaration. It also puts me in the moment and forces me to travel light, taking only a few essential items. This time around the road led me to Phoenix, Arizona to visit my long-time friend, business-partner and co-owner of Skyborne, Dan Marazon. He recently purchased a motorcycle and has become quite proficient in piloting it. This was our first opportunity to explore together some of the beauty of the Arizona Landscape as well as some of the Western-themed towns around the megalopolis of Phoenix. Here’s a little slide-show with some pictures from our explorations along the Apache Trail and Canyon Lake. (Use the arrows at left and right to move forward or backwards through the images, or swipe right or left on a smart phone).

The particular destination (Tortilla Flat) seen in many of the images was one of the “haunts” of a miner in the days of the “old west” named Jacob Waltz (aka “The Lost Dutchman”). He apparently discovered a rich deposit of gold but died soon thereafter without passing on the location. Thus, to this day many people search for his lost mine in the nearby wilderness of the Superstition Mountains hoping to strike it rich. While I’m tempted to see them as just more hamsters on the matrix wheel trying to find meaning in the material illusion, who am I to judge? The material world is a place to experience all types of dramas and who can say that one is more or less valuable than another? If upon review of their incarnation a soul gains some eternal insight from the experience, perhaps they found their treasure after all!
