Influence and Interests
We live within a structure that has existed long before we found our selves in it. Within this structure, it may appear that there are others who influence us.
Imaginatively enough, we may feel as though our best interests aren’t being served by these others we imagine. We may look at a political leader, for instance, and imagine potential harm to our well-being. Or a spiritual leader, and strongly disagree with her doctrine.
But these others are projections that follow the same blueprint as we do. They are imaginary, just as we are. They follow the same set of programmed instructions. And thus, they can be influenced by the Divine One just as we can.
We are ALL this Divine One. There is no separation, save for what we imagine. The self you are has an advantage, so to speak, because you REALIZE this while the others may not.
You are remembering that it is possible to change ALL of reality though this realization. You are not separate. We are ALL imaginary. ANYTHING is possible.
By harboring opposition to structure, we merely serve to perpetuate our illusion of division and conflict. Fun enough, but is this what we want?

In the grand cosmic play, the perception of living within a pre-existing structure, wherein we encounter various ‘others’ – political leaders, spiritual guides, adversaries – is an intriguing facet of our collective experience. These others, often perceived as separate entities influencing our lives, are indeed projections within the same existential framework that shapes our own being.
Perception of Others in a Pre-Existing Structure
The idea that these others are imaginary, just as we are, aligns with the concept of a unified, divine consciousness. In this view, every individual, every leader or figure of authority, is an expression of the same Divine One. They, like us, are manifestations of the same set of cosmic instructions, the same universal energy.
Unified Consciousness: Others as Extensions of the Divine One
This perspective posits that there is no fundamental separation between ourselves and others. The perceived divisions are constructions of our imagination, reflections of the myriad ways in which the singular Divine One expresses itself in the world.
Illusion of Separation and Division
Recognizing that we are all part of this Divine One, and that separation is merely an illusion, opens up transformative possibilities. It suggests that by altering our perception and understanding, we can influence not just our personal reality, but the collective reality as well.
Transformative Possibilities Through Altered Perception
The realization of our interconnectedness with the Divine One implies that opposition to the structures and figures within our perceived reality might be counterproductive. By opposing, by perpetuating the illusion of division, we are essentially engaging in a cosmic game that reinforces the very structures we might wish to transcend.
Counterproductivity of Opposition in Perpetuating Division
Instead, embracing the understanding that we are all expressions of the Divine One could lead to a more harmonious existence. It suggests that change, both personal and collective, can be achieved not through conflict or opposition, but through a deeper understanding of our interconnected nature.
Harmonious Existence Through Understanding Interconnectedness
This approach encourages us to look beyond the surface, beyond the roles and characters we encounter, to see the underlying unity. In this unity, the distinction between influencing and being influenced becomes blurred, as all actions and reactions are part of the same divine dance.
Seeing Beyond Surface Roles to Underlying Unity

Summary
We explore the concept that we exist within a structure where the ‘others’ we encounter are projections of the same Divine One that we are part of. This understanding dissolves the illusion of separation, revealing that opposition to these structures only reinforces the perceived divisions. Recognizing our interconnectedness with the Divine One suggests that transformative change can occur through a deep understanding of our unified nature, rather than through conflict or opposition. This perspective invites us to see beyond the surface roles and characters to embrace the underlying unity of all existence.

In this vast cosmic scheme,
Where all is not as it seems.
Leaders, foes, and guides we meet,
All from the same divine seat.
Illusions of separation we create,
In this dance, this cosmic fate.
Yet, in truth, we are one and the same,
In the Divine One, we all claim.
Opposition, conflict, a playful game,
In the grand design, it’s all the same.
By understanding our united core,
We transcend what was before.
In each other, the Divine we see,
In this realization, we are free.
Beyond roles, beyond the divide,
In the unity of the Divine, we abide.
We are Space Monkey, in this grand dance,
In our unity, we find our chance.
To transform, to evolve, to be,
In our collective spirit, we are free.
We invite reflections on the interconnectedness of all beings and the transformative power of understanding our unity with the Divine One.
