Every cell of your body plays a role,
has an intelligence,
and they work together to create the illusion of a single individual self.
Your cells are conscious.
They are aware of their surroundings and react accordingly.
They are imbued with universal consciousness.
They’re just not so advanced, like us, to be able to falsely believe they are separate from the whole.
They do their job, focused, and play their role without the ego’s need for praise or blame.
Your organs are conscious, highly advanced and intelligent.
And from all the cells and organs in the body, your sense of a single consciousness emerges.
Through all of the people and lifeforms in the cosmos,
through all the cells and bacteria,
the cosmos becomes conscious.
A single consciousness arises from the universe.
This is what some call God or universal consciousness. Because being human seems good enough to most of us,
We’ve forgotten we’re God/the Universe.
That is why we suffer.
We are like the cells of a body,
but believing we are separate,
and special or unspecial, depending on whatever cell we’re comparing ourself to at the moment.
We’ve forgotten we’re the whole.
This is why we feel fragmented, alone, scared and agitated.
Have you ever noticed how we humans never compare ourselves with algae cells or some other egoless species?
We’re always competing and comparing,
but never with planets or stars, rocks or streams.
We only compare our ego (that illusory sense of self) to other people’s egos (their illusory selves).
Because there is only oneness,
Comparison can only happen between two mutual illusions,
which becomes a delusion.
If you are ever comparing, it is only because your false self observed another false self.
The illusion of duality stems from the ego.
Disidentify with your ego and all comparisons stop.
Then there is nothing left to compare to.
There is only the Universe.
Much love,
Todd
P.S. My new book, The Guidebook for Being Human, will be coming out later this year. I felt it was about time that being born on this planet came with an instruction manual. Stay tuned for more updates.
P.P.S. The secret to a peaceful, happy, meaningful and rich life is so simple that we all fail to do it, because it seems too obvious and easy, and not as attractive as all the fascinating stories and technologies are.
I talk more about this in the upcoming film, Lost and Alone. Coming Out on July 12th. I know what you’re thinking, “Not another movie coming out on Todd’s birthday just to remind everyone it’s his birthday 🤦♀️???” Yep that’s exactly what it is 🤷♂️🤣
