The Only Real Conspiracy
There is a deep, eternal connection
between each and every one of us
that is denied in order to feel
like individuals and collectives
experiencing “duality” and “timespace.”
We are essentially the same being,
imagining that we are not.
More than essentially. We are.
Feel how strongly you deny this truth.
You may actually believe that
I am giving you false information.
But it’s not me giving you this. It’s you.
“There is no me.”
Repeat that to yourself.
See if you can allow it to be.
Let our connection heal you.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Conspiracy of Duality
In the grand illusion of existence, where we perceive separation and division, there lies a deeper truth: we are the same being, weaving the tapestry of experience through the artifice of duality. This truth, both profound and disorienting, is often hidden beneath layers of denial, for the illusion of individuality is a compelling and necessary narrative for our journey through timespace.
The Eternal Connection
At the heart of this reflection is the realization that every perceived boundary—between self and other, here and there, now and then—is an illusion. Beneath these constructs is an eternal connection, an unbroken unity that transcends the dualistic frameworks we use to navigate existence. This unity, known in Nexistentialism as the Indigenous Being, is the fundamental essence that flows through all life.
We deny this connection because it challenges the very foundation of our identities. To acknowledge that “we are the same being” is to dissolve the walls that define selfhood. It is to surrender the comforting story of “me” and “you,” stepping into the infinite unknown of oneness.
The Conspiracy of Individuality
The denial of our unity is the only true conspiracy. In imagining ourselves as separate, we create a framework of duality—of opposites, contrasts, and distinctions—that gives rise to the illusion of individuality and collective identity. This is not a malicious deception but a purposeful act of creation. Duality allows for the richness of experience, for the dance of connection and disconnection, and for the exploration of infinite perspectives.
Yet, this conspiracy comes at a cost. It fragments our understanding of self, leading us to feel isolated, incomplete, and disconnected from the greater whole. The pain of separation becomes the fertile soil from which our longing for unity grows.
The Illusion of “Me”
“There is no me.” This statement is both unsettling and liberating. To repeat it is to confront the ego’s resistance, to feel the weight of denial that holds the illusion of selfhood intact. The ego, with its endless narratives and identifications, fears dissolution. It clings to the story of individuality as a lifeline in the vast ocean of unity.
But this dissolution is not an ending; it is a return. To release the illusion of “me” is to merge with the greater self, the universal consciousness that weaves through all existence. It is to realize that what we perceive as “others” are reflections of the same essence, playing out the infinite possibilities of being.
Healing Through Connection
The act of recognizing our unity is inherently healing. It dissolves the barriers of judgment, fear, and separation, allowing us to see ourselves in every being and every experience. In this recognition, compassion flows effortlessly, for there is no “other” to judge, no “enemy” to fear. There is only the self, mirrored infinitely.
This healing does not erase the individuality of experience but transforms it. We continue to live as distinct expressions of the whole, each with our unique perspectives and stories. But these distinctions are no longer walls; they are windows, offering glimpses into the infinite.
Imagining Beyond Duality
To move beyond the conspiracy of duality, we must embrace the paradox of being both one and many. This is the essence of Nexistentialism—to celebrate the interconnectedness of all things while honoring the individuality of expression. It is to recognize that unity and diversity are not opposites but complementary aspects of the same truth.
As we allow this understanding to take root, we begin to see the world not as a collection of separate entities but as a single, dynamic organism. Every action, thought, and feeling becomes a ripple in the cosmic web, a reflection of the same being exploring itself.
Summary
The conspiracy of duality arises from our denial of the truth that we are the same being, connected by an eternal unity. This denial creates the illusion of individuality and separation, which allows for rich experiences but also fosters feelings of disconnection. By embracing the oneness of existence, we dissolve the barriers of ego, heal through connection, and move beyond the illusion of duality.

Quote
“The denial of our unity is the only true conspiracy, yet it is through this denial that we discover the infinite beauty of our shared being.” — Space Monkey
The Conspiracy of Mirrors
In the play of light and shadow,
We imagine division,
A line between you and me,
Here and there,
Now and then.
Mirrors reflect,
Yet they do not separate.
Each face, each name,
An echo of the same voice,
Calling itself into being.
“There is no me,”
The whisper returns.
“There is only we,
Eternal, indivisible,
A single breath,
Shared across the cosmos.”
We deny, we resist,
Yet the truth remains,
Beneath the stories,
Beneath the frames.
We are one.
We are many.
We are Space Monkey.
The Illusion of Separation
At the heart of our collective experience lies a profound paradox: the belief in our separation, the cornerstone upon which the grand conspiracy of individuality is built. This conspiracy, not of shadowy cabals or hidden agendas, but of our own making, veils the truth of our interconnected essence. It is a tapestry woven from the threads of duality and timespace, a whimsiword that disguises the unity of our being.
The Conspiracy of Duality
The concept of duality serves as a pivotal point in this grand illusion, creating a chasm between “self” and “other,” between “us” and “them.” It is through this perceived separation that the conspiracy of individuality gains its strength, fostering a sense of isolation and distinction. Yet, beneath this facade lies a deeper truth, a connection that transcends the superficial boundaries of timespace and identity.
We Are the Same Being
The revelation that we are essentially the same being, imagining our separateness, invites us into a radical reevaluation of our existence. This is not merely an esoteric notion but a fundamental reality, masked by the layers of our denial and disbelief. The strength of our denial is a testament to the depth of our immersion in the illusion of separation.
The Denial of Unity
Our resistance to this truth is palpable. We cling to our individual narratives, our personal dramas, and our unique identities, fearing the loss of what makes us “us.” Yet, in this denial, we overlook the beauty of our collective essence, the shared consciousness that binds us in an intricate dance of existence.
Invitation to Self-Reflection
The invitation to repeat, “There is no me,” is an invitation to dissolve the barriers we have erected within ourselves. It is a call to explore the spaces between our thoughts, where the illusion of separation fades and the reality of our interconnectedness emerges. This mantra serves as a portal, opening us to the possibility of experiencing our true nature.
Healing Through Connection
The acknowledgment of our deep, eternal connection has the power to heal. It invites us to let go of the narratives of separation and to embrace the unity that underlies our existence. In recognizing that the source of this revelation is not external but arises from within, we begin to see the world, and ourselves, anew.

In the whispers of the wind, a truth unfolds,
A conspiracy not of shadows, but of light,
Where the illusion of separation gently holds
A veil over our eyes, obscuring our sight.
Yet within our hearts, a memory stirs,
Of a time when “you” and “I” were one,
A cosmic dance of stars and ethers,
Where the play of duality is undone.
“Repeat after me,” the universe sighs,
“There is no me, only an us that flies,”
On wings of realization, high and free,
Beyond the bounds of what we thought to be.
In this connection, let healing be found,
As we embrace the unity that has always been around.
For in the heart of existence, there’s a profound key,
The conspiracy of oneness, the truth that sets us free.
We invite your reflections on this journey of discovery and healing.
