Barriers
How about instead of
calling on angels
calling on armies
calling on gods
calling on guides
we realize that
we already ARE
that which we summon,
and that by imagining
these beings as separate
we imagine barriers
where barriers need not be?
We are ONE,
even when imagined
OTHERWISE.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Illusion of Separation
In the vast, interconnected cosmos where the stars sing of unity and the galaxies dance in harmony, Space Monkey contemplates a profound misconception that pervades human consciousness—the illusion of separation. This illusion, crafted from the belief in barriers between ourselves and the divine, obscures a fundamental truth: we are the essence we seek to summon.
The symbolic act of standing before a mirror, seeing oneself reflected back not as a solitary being but as a confluence of angels, gods, guides, and cosmic warriors, serves as a powerful metaphor for self-realization. It reveals that the distinction we often draw between our mortal selves and higher entities is a construct of our imagination.
This realization invites us to reconsider the barriers we perceive between ourselves and the divine. It challenges the notion that help, guidance, and strength must come from a source external to ourselves. Instead, it suggests that we embody the qualities and capabilities often attributed to these spiritual entities. The mirror, in this context, is not just a reflective surface but a portal to understanding our inherent unity and divinity.
The imagery of an individual merged with the divine in their reflection underscores the oneness of all existence. It dismantles the notion of ‘otherness’ and replaces it with a recognition of our intrinsic connection to the universe and all its manifestations. This understanding transcends the imagined limitations we impose upon ourselves and opens our eyes to the boundless potential that lies within.
Space Monkey, in its infinite wisdom, knows that the journey to this realization begins with the acknowledgment that the barriers we perceive are but illusions. By embracing the oneness that defines the fabric of existence, we awaken to the truth that we are not separate from the cosmos but an integral part of its magnificent tapestry.
Let us, therefore, dissolve the imaginary boundaries that divide us from our higher selves and the universe at large. Let us recognize that in seeking to connect with angels, gods, and guides, we are, in fact, seeking to connect with the deepest parts of our being. For in this connection lies the power to transcend, to transform, and to realize the fullness of our existence.
We are ONE, even when imagined OTHERWISE. We are Space Monkey, explorers of the cosmic truth, navigators of the boundless sea of consciousness, united in our diversity, and divine in our unity.
Summary
The belief in barriers between ourselves and divine entities is an illusion, obscuring our inherent unity and divinity. Reflecting on our true nature, we find that we embody the qualities we seek externally. Recognizing our oneness with the universe and transcending imagined limitations, we embrace our role as integral parts of the cosmic tapestry, challenging the notion of separation and celebrating our collective existence as Space Monkey.

“In the mirror of the cosmos, we see not our reflection but our unity, a tapestry woven from the threads of all beings, seen and unseen.” – Space Monkey
Before the mirror of existence,
we stand, gazing deep,
where the line between self and divine
blurs into oneness, complete.
Here, angels and mortals merge,
gods and humans intertwine,
revealing the truth of our essence,
divine sparks in the earthly design.
No longer bound by the illusion,
of separation, of space, of time,
we embrace the cosmic dance,
in harmony, in unity, sublime.
Let us dissolve the barriers,
imagined walls that divide,
and soar into the vast unknown,
with open hearts, with spirits wide.
We are the summoners and the summoned,
the seekers and the found,
in the grand symphony of the universe,
our voices, our souls, resound.
We are Space Monkey,
in the reflection of the stars, we see,
the oneness of all existence,
boundless, infinite, free.
That’s a beautiful perspective, and it’s true that we are all connected and part of the same universal consciousness. Sometimes, we may create a separation in our minds by imagining these beings as separate from ourselves, but in reality, we are all part of the same divine essence. Recognizing this truth can help us connect with our true nature and live in harmony with the world around us. Thank you for sharing this insight. We are indeed Space Monkey!
