You are invited to listen to the ancient wisdom, "look around you". Look especially at the living things that surround us. Life is still "magic" to us, because we haven't yet found a way to make life (other than the "natural" way, of course, but we're not here to read about sex, as stimulating as that would be). Life is all around us, and yet we still haven't found even the most basic forms of life anywhere else but on this, our planet Earth. This brief treatment about the energy of life assumes that life only takes forms that are familiar to us, that are carbon-based forms made of matter that are alive.
The life energy essence (L.E.E.; an initialism rather than an acronym; pronounced EL - Ē - Ē, not just Lēē) is the energy of life that will soon be discovered by science on the atomic (nuclear) level. When the L.E.E. is found, scientists might then learn how to duplicate life in the laboratory, perhaps give actual life energy to AIs and help older people with the aging process. The reason life has not been duplicated in the laboratory before this is because scientists have only been trying to do so on a chemical basis rather than on an atomic/nuclear basis. What is the difference between, say, a living cell and a similar cell that has died, or between a small beetle and an inanimate pebble in the sand? between a carbon atom in us vs. one in non-living charcoal, or between a water molecule in a living being and one in an ocean or river? I think we're about to find out as we dig deeper to find the L.E.E. housed in the atomic structures of certain elements and molecules in the bodies of living beings.
In some ways we are today similar to scholars of old. In ancient times those scholars thought that the universe consisted of four elements: air, earth, fire and water. Today we know that the universe consists of a much more complicated and intricate array of elements, as we see in a periodic table. And today scholars have theorized that there are four fundamental forces, or "interactions" as they are now called: the strong force, electromagnetic force, weak force and gravitation. This writer postulates that there are more than four fundamental forces, perhaps many more, that are thus far undiscovered. And one of those >4 forces is the L.E.E.
These musings have led this writer to draw certain conclusions about the L.E.E. and the purpose or meaning of what having that force within us just might turn out to be. So please prepare yourself for speculative ideas along those lines. Thank you beyond words for reading!
Fifth force
[edit]The L.E.E. joins the four known fundamental interactions: strong nuclear force, electromagnetism, weak nuclear force and gravity as a fifth fundamental force – the life force.
Now, don't be shocked ... when we probe such things, the first thing you know, there are questions that arise. One major question for me at first was: is the L.E.E. one of the already existing known forces? or is it a fifth fundamental force? Evidence appears to point to the latter, that the L.E.E. is a 5th force that leaves the quantum world of living things when they die. And of course the L.E.E. is not found in the nuclear structures of inanimate things like rocks, docks and clocks. Such a vibrating energy as the L.E.E., which moves on (to where?) when we die, must be separate and distinct from the four known discreet and essential energies/forces/interactions.
Prison planet
[edit]A question that people have been trying to answer for thousands of years has to do with purpose – "Why are we here?" This is another take, my take, on the answer. This planet some call "Earth" is a prison planet. We made it to planet Selene (the Moon) and we might make it to planet Mars, and maybe even beyond that a planet or two, but there is no healthy way out of this solar system. No healthy way. Either the radiation will kill intrepid explorers, or the long periods spent in space will. So if it hasn't been obvious to you by now, hopefully it will soon become so – this planet Earth is actually a prison for living things. We are sentient living things, this is our prison, and we are its prisoners. Yes, Earth or Gaia, Tierra or земной шар, पृथ्वी or 地球, whatever you would like to call it, is a prison.
So...
- What have we done to have been incarcerated here on this planet?
- Who or what is regulating things? (Who is the warden?) – and
- What happens to its prisoners? (us)
This is not a new idea as some of you may know. Schopenhauer's philosophy includes a comparison between Earth and a prison, or more specifically a penitentiary. His thoughts tended to be more mundane, more Earthbound. It seems that adding space travel to the mix is new.
Not an obvious philosophy?
[edit]I do realize that this is a radical departure from what most people think of as our meaning and purpose, (if one does think about it at all); however, our being prisoners is based upon more than just the above reasonable conclusions about having no way out of this solar system. It is based on two main facts: 1) contents of my emerald breath unarticle, and 2) my own personal experiences that some might think of as hearsay and maybe figments of my imagination. For me, my experiences are "exceptions" to the hearsay rule; but of course, I cannot speak for others. Belief is a large part of it, and belief is a powerful concept especially when one has experienced its energetic potency over and over again. It's up to you to decide based upon your own knowledge and experience whether or not you, too, are a prisoner here on planet Earth. Seems the wiser we become, the more our beliefs are able to materialize. So use your power to spread the good!
Many long years
[edit]Every prison has a warden, someone who watches over the prison and its detainees. Don't know the nature of this warden, corporeal or spiritual; do know that he, she or it is very smart, much more technologically advanced than we humans are. They (and they may very well be more than one) have been monitoring this prison planet since many long years ago. They have cultivated living beings to hold the life energy essences of warriors out in the Universe who have been caught fighting on the wrong side, on the evil side. They were fighting for evil out in the Cosmos, and now they are here on Earth to learn about the good side, to begin participating in good things and to help spread the good over the globe and, eventually, throughout the Universe.
The Good and the Bad – they can get ugly
[edit]The following usually takes people by surprise. Here on Earth there really is no such polar arrangement as "good and bad"; gray is truth and the truth is gray. We often treat good and evil as if they were absolutes, like the north and south poles of a magnet. Some "goods" are better than others, and the determination of that is at times difficult for us. Everyone has an opinion about, for example, whether or not having and raising children is a good idea. (That will put you in a psychiatrist's office if you're not careful!) Lots of gray area exists between the absolutes of good and evil, and the grays are where the truth always is. People are as yet too early in their development to always expertly discern good and evil. The rest of the Universe is not so gray. It's very different "out there". So when one's L.E.E. has been fighting for millennia on the side of evil, and then one gets caught and sent to a prison planet, it becomes a major undertaking for one to learn how to love, or even like, the good. Some of us are able to overcome all the barriers, all the hurdles, and some of us aren't. They just can't get the hang of it, or they don't even try. It sometimes takes more than one sentient lifetime. Good and evil are illusions here. They seem very real when it comes to the giggles and smiles of a child, a nursing mother or to achieving a huge pay raise vs. muggings, murder, human trafficking or war, but those are very human things. Our biases, prejudices and bigotries get in the way of our ability to make out the truth, that is, the illusion of the differences between the good, the bad, and the ugly gray.
On aggressiveness
[edit]Aggressiveness leading to combative behavior is obviously instinctive in all living things. Every living thing on Earth is here only because of its ability to survive, not just as individuals, but also as a species. The collective that I refer to as the warden sees this behavior and is fascinated by it. This trait, aggressiveness, must have been deeply ingrained as an evolutionary survival trait very early on and has persisted up to the present day. We have taken human form to better emotionalize what is happening here, and the results are surprising... astonishing.
At some point, life finds a way to better handle the aggressiveness it has needed to survive up to now. When we reach that point, the main and major result will be cessation of suffering. That is the hardest to take for some of us. Suffering of the children, suffering of women, even suffering of men is deeply hurtful. Necessary, of course, but exceedingly deleterious. This particular aspect of aggressive behavior is very hard to live with. As human beings we thrive because of our aggressiveness, and we also suffer because of it. It seems that the way to minimize the suffering, the only way, is to stop our aggressiveness toward each other.
It is a good thing to think about how that might be accomplished!
Study in progress
[edit]There will be more to come on all this, because the study progresses on several fronts. It's much like the maglev studies, which will soon lead to transportation vehicles that are not limited to near-ground (railway) efforts. Magnetic levitation in "defiance" of gravity will lead to flying vehicles capable of traveling beyond Earth's atmosphere. As long as we continue to live and thrive, human beings will grow to higher and higher technological abilties. I call that a good thing, and when we can all say that, our very human problems related to aggressiveness will finally dwindle. We will, more and more, use that aggressiveness assertiveness aggressiveness to improve our technology. We will fan out into space and populate other planets in our Solar System. If we can all finally become good, then our spread to other spatially extended[1] worlds would also become significantly beneficial and worthwhile. Again, we're a work in progress.

Freedom to kill
[edit]Few of us are immune to committing murder. I didn't outright kill anyone while I was an NCO in Viet Nam – I just maintained and repaired navigational equipment used by aircraft pilots, who did outright kill others – all in the good name of "the defense of democracy". So I was indirectly responsible for all that killing while I was there. I was an accomplice to murder, and so I was not immune to wrongdoing.
In this world most of us try to get along with our fellow inhabitants. At best we befriend each other and at worst we tolerate other beings, human and not. Only a very few of us extend our various levels of freedoms to the freedom to hurt others, the freedom to kill other people. For many of us the spread of the good means overcoming these evils in our world, and yet most of us are quite complacent, apathetic, indifferent when it comes to the spread of good or evil. Most run away from that which we consider bad for us, or we stick around on the outskirts to see what's going on without actually becoming involved. Not one of us should have the freedom to hurt and to kill other human beings, and that is recognized by the laws of every nation, however localized it may seem. And yet it does appear to be legal and lawful to hurt and to kill those human beings who are not a part of our culture and heritage, those we do not think of as worthy of continued existence, those who are perhaps infidels in our eyes, especially when we are part of a military unit.
Here is an area where differentiating between the good and the bad often gets ugly. Is it any wonder that a few of us see this as a license to extend their freedom to hurt and to kill others? even when those acts are clearly against the law? It shouldn't really surprise anybody! One thing that really gets to me... there are actually "rules of war", which when violated, instill within us a license to judge and execute people for violations of those laws! "Rules of war". It's not against the rules of war to kill soldiers and other military personnel; it's even okay for, say, a Catholic soldier from one country to kill a Catholic soldier from an enemy country, or a Muslim to kill a Muslim enemy, or a Sikh to kill a Sikh enemy, and so on. But be careful about killing innocent civilians, because the only time that seems to be acceptable is when you drop a nuclear bomb on them.[2]
Why shouldn't people have the freedom to kill? because it's wrong, always and forever wrong! The evil among us just love to do wrong. And the good among us, while they don't like it when they feel they must kill in the good name of defense of something, or of annihilation of something they hate, will not hesitate to "rally around the flag" and commit murder, which, on occasion, results in outright atrocities.
Next
[edit]Thank you for bearing with me this far! So, what is "next"? When we are murdered, killed in battle or die of natural causes, when our physical bodies must be buried or cremated, is that the end of us? or not... Some think their soul goes to heaven to be with God and the angels or Allah and the virgins or some other blissful eternity. Maybe their souls will go to hades or hell to be with the fallen angel Lucifer, aka Satan or the Devil, for eternity. Some think they will be reincarnated, ostensibly over and over until they get something right. They might spend eternity with their worshiped gods and goddesses. Others deify their ancestors, with whom they will join when they die. There are many and varied beliefs, to include the belief that at life's end there will be no furtherance, no soul to continue, only oblivion. And now you expect to hear my own "truth" about what comes next? What comes next depends on you and your L.E.E. Your L.E.E. has been imprisoned on this planet to learn about, practice and spread the good. How is that going for you?
The warden
[edit]Who is the warden? For me there is strong evidence, for example – the fact is that there absolutely must be life in this Universe (possibly right here on Earth) who are beings that are higher than humans, higher than us. I refuse to believe that we humans are the technological apex form of life in this Universe. And one day perhaps soon, and hopefully soon enough so that I'm still alive when this happens, one day those higher beings are going to come and show themselves to us. I would so love to be here when that happens! I realize that this is a huge responsibility letting you know this. When this truth sinks in, you may find yourself wondering if you, too, want to be here and alive and well when these awesome beings make themselves known to us. Only a few of us really want to be here when they show up, and the rest would frankly rather not be here when it happens. I hope you're one of those people who do want to meet them, who do want to meet those incredible people whose technology far exceeds our own. Perhaps that is a way for your L.E.E. to make it off this planet?
Another thing: whoever or whatever this warden may be – spiritual, corporeal like us, or an advanced form of artificial intelligence (AI) – he, she, it or they are not all powerful. I know this because in all these years I've lived on this planet, I've not been thoroughly convinced of an afterlife, nor have I seen hard evidence that our lives here are anything but some naturally evolving events governed solely by "nature" on this planet. If our warden (if we do indeed have a warden) were all powerful, then I would have been so convinced long ago. Therefore, omnipotence does not appear to be a characteristic of our warden. For me to "believe" in an afterlife and a benevolent warden, there is only "faith", or trust that such things are likely, or even possible events in our lives. It is this faith, and only this faith, that I can offer to others. It is all that I have; it is all there is.
I would like to ask the Universe...
[edit]I would like to ask the Universe for all the bad things to stop. Hurting, killing, human trafficking, I want people to stop hating each other, to love or at least like, or at the very least tolerate each other. I would like to ask the Universe for these things, but I cannot. If I ask the Universe for these things, I just might get them, because the Universe tends to give me all that I ask of it. All of the bad things that we experience here on Earth serve a definite purpose. We are here, are alive, to learn how to become the good, and the way to learn that is to look around you, to live your life and make a choice. Decide if you want to be good or evil, helpful or complacent. Do you want to be free? or do you want to remain a prisoner way out here in the "burbs" of the Milky Way galaxy!(?)
BAM – Spread the good!
