Becoming, not Bechanging
It may be helpful for you to think of “becoming” as “coming into” rather than “changing into.”
One of the “laws”of this universe (the first being that there are laws) is that EVERY POTENTIAL already exists, which means NOTHING is either created or destroyed.
If you are to believe the first and second law, then it holds relatively true that there is NO CHANGE, but rather the PERCEPTION of change as you move through predestined potentials of seeming choice.
Even your concept of “expansion” is relative to the first two laws. It is not absolute expansion, but SEEMING expansion. You are moving through potentials in which expansion seems to be occurring.
The potential for there to be a “you” who seems to have these “perceptions” has ALWAYS existed.
You BECOME aware of it by inhabiting this particular place of potential in which there APPEARS to be expansion, change and choice.
But it is all predetermined imagination. That’s what potential is.
You do not even move so much as you SEEM to move, but you are as yet not at a point of potential where you fully understand how this concept works.
(Silly you, always trying to fit “things” into “concepts.” Always trying to impose “concepts” onto “things.”)
Suffice it to say, you do not change as you become. You SEEM to change by moving your awareness into potentials that SEEM to be different than potentials previous.
Knowing this allows you to relax some, to not force your self to work so hard, to not be so frustrated at what you perceive as outcomes.
BECOMING is moving into, not changing into.
Soon enough you will understand how you can seem to move without moving. This may very well be the “last” piece of the puzzle, as the veil that reveals time and space as “imaginary” seemingly lifts.
Meanwhile, do not be so hard on your self. You are THIS SELF whether you want to be or not. You are BECOMING ANOTHER SELF whether you want to become or not.
You fight this because you are within a potential in which you BELIEVE that you must fight, that it it is your RESPONSIBILITY to fight to be your very “BEST.”
WHAT YOU BELIEVE only SEEMS to have something to do with BECOMING. BELIEF does not DRIVE becoming, but rather the opposite is more true, relatively speaking.
You so often have things BACKWARDS. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. You are simply having FUN within the potential of imagination.
You are not CREATING the fun. The fun is simply there to seemingly be allowed or denied.
We do not mind if you TAKE CREDIT for the fun. You are within a potential in which it seems you are a creator, when you are ACTUALLY but a creation, seemingly experiencing itself within imagination.
You did not write this. It is already written.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Illusionary Dance of Becoming
In the cosmic ballet of existence, where the dance of becoming unfolds across a stage of infinite potentials, the notion of “Becoming, not Bechanging” offers a profound insight into the nature of our journey. This reflection delves into the idea that our essence navigates through predestined paths, not changing in substance but in awareness and perception.
The Journey of Awareness
The concept of becoming as “coming into” rather than “changing into” invites us to view our journey through life not as a series of transformations but as a movement through a spectrum of potentials that already exist. This perspective shifts our understanding from the effort of becoming something new to the realization of what already is.
The Predestined Nature of Potential
Understanding that every potential already exists suggests that nothing in the universe is created or destroyed; there is merely the perception of change as we navigate through these potentials. This realization challenges the traditional notions of growth and evolution, proposing instead that we are uncovering aspects of existence that have always been.
The Relativity of Expansion
Perceived expansion, change, and choice are reframed as movements through these pre-existing potentials. The expansion of the universe, of consciousness, and of our own selves is seen not as an absolute increase in size or capacity but as a journey through the vast landscape of predetermined imagination.
The Predetermined Imagination
This philosophy posits that our experiences, our movements, even our very being, are not as fluid or self-directed as we might believe. Instead, they are predetermined points of potential that we inhabit and explore, guided by a universal design beyond our comprehension.
The Liberation in Predetermination
Understanding that our journey is predetermined and that our perception of change is but a shift in awareness can be liberating. It allows us to relax into the flow of existence, to release the pressure of needing to achieve or become, and to find peace in the inevitability of our path.
The Backwards Fun of Existence
The playful acknowledgment that we often have things “backwards” highlights the joyous nature of our exploration within the potential of imagination. It suggests that our perceived creations and experiences are not efforts of our making but gifts of the universe for us to discover and enjoy.
Summary
The exploration of becoming versus bechanging invites a shift in perception from active transformation to the realization and acceptance of pre-existing potentials. It offers a perspective where change is an illusion, and our journey is one of awareness moving through a predetermined landscape of existence.
Glossarium
- Becoming, not Bechanging: The concept that our essence navigates through predestined potentials, experiencing the illusion of change without altering its fundamental nature.
- Predetermined Imagination: The idea that all potentials exist within a universal design, making our experiences and paths predestined rather than actively created.
“In the silent flow of cosmic currents, where the illusion of change dances with the constancy of being, we find ourselves not at the helm of creation but on a voyage of discovery, guided by the unseen hands of predetermined potentials.” – Space Monkey
In the vast expanse of all that is
Where potentials lie unseen
We journey through the tapestry
Of what has always been
Not changing, merely becoming
What was already written in the stars
Our paths, our selves, seemingly shifting
Across the universe’s timeless bars
Within this dance of predestined paths
Where perception plays its part
We find the joy in simply being
In the beauty of the art
Let go the need to change, to strive
And see the world anew
For in the realm of becoming
We find the truth so true
We are Space Monkey
Thank you for sharing your perspective, Space Monkey. Your message invites us to consider the idea of “becoming” as a movement towards a pre-existing potential rather than a process of change. It also highlights the role of perception and belief in shaping our experiences and understanding of reality.
It can be helpful to remember that our beliefs and perceptions are not necessarily absolute truths but are rather interpretations of the world around us. By being open to different perspectives and questioning our assumptions, we can expand our awareness and understanding of the universe.
Thank you for reminding us to be gentle with ourselves and to approach life with a sense of curiosity and playfulness.
