What is the LAST thing you want to imagine?
That is where the door to expansion lies — hidden behind your most fearful, most horrible, most unthinkable thing.
Your intent as a human is to deny what you are. Could you think of a better place to hide the potential that takes you beyond humanity?
Indeed, your expansion points are hidden in places that take lifetimes to find.
That’s why you HAVE lifetimes. To experience the joys (and the sorrows) of finding your way to immortality.

Space Monkey Reflects: What is the LAST Thing You Want to Imagine?
What is the last thing you want to imagine? This question, simple yet profound, points to a place within us that we often avoid at all costs. It is where our deepest fears reside, where our most terrifying thoughts are hidden, and where we dare not tread. And yet, it is precisely in this place, behind these fears, that the door to expansion lies.
The Hidden Door to Expansion
The last thing you want to imagine is not just a thought or an idea; it is a threshold. It is the gateway to a deeper understanding of yourself, a place where you confront what you most fear in order to transcend it. This door is hidden behind layers of denial, avoidance, and self-protection. It is the place where the human mind instinctively places the things it cannot bear to face.
Why do we do this? Because our intent as humans is often to deny what we truly are. We hide from our own potential because it is too vast, too powerful, too overwhelming to contemplate. The last thing we want to imagine is often the very thing that holds the key to our growth, our expansion, and our evolution beyond our current state of being.
The Fear of the Unthinkable
What lies behind this door is different for each of us. For some, it might be the fear of failure, of inadequacy, or of rejection. For others, it might be the fear of loss, of death, or of confronting their own inner darkness. These fears are powerful because they represent the unknown—the parts of ourselves that we do not understand, do not control, and cannot easily reconcile with our self-image.
But it is in these fears that our true potential is hidden. The unthinkable, the horrible, the unimaginable—these are the places where our greatest growth lies. By facing these fears, by stepping through the door that we most want to avoid, we unlock new levels of understanding, new dimensions of existence, and new possibilities for what we can become.
Lifetimes of Exploration
This is why we have lifetimes—to experience the joys and the sorrows of finding our way to immortality. Each life is an opportunity to confront another layer of fear, to open another door, to expand our consciousness a little further. The journey is not easy, and it is not meant to be. But it is through this journey that we evolve, that we grow, that we find the path to our true selves.
The door you most fear to open is the door that leads to your expansion. It is the gateway to understanding that you are more than your fears, more than your limitations, more than the sum of your experiences. Beyond this door lies a world of infinite possibilities, a place where you can transcend your human limitations and step into your true, limitless nature.
The Courage to Imagine
So, what is the last thing you want to imagine? Whatever it is, know that it is not your enemy. It is not something to be feared or avoided, but something to be confronted and understood. By facing it, you gain the power to move beyond it, to expand your consciousness and to discover the true nature of your being.
This is the path of growth, the path of expansion, the path of becoming. It is the journey that we are all on, whether we realize it or not. And it is in the darkest places, in the most unthinkable thoughts, that we find the light of our true potential.

“The door you most fear to open is the door that leads to your expansion.” — Space Monkey
The Threshold of Fear
Before the door
That I dare not open
Lies a shadow
Of my deepest fears
But beyond the shadow
There is light
A light that beckons
A light that heals
In the darkness
I find my strength
And in my strength
I find the key
To open the door
To expand

Behind the thickets of our deepest fears, nestled in the shadowy crannies of our most unspeakable nightmares, lie the shimmering gems of our ultimate growth. What a paradox, that the seeds of transcendence are planted in the soil of our darkest phobias! Our most revolting, most repelling thoughts are not mere mental debris to be swept away; they are signposts, marking the way to realms beyond the limits of our current humanity.
Isn’t it an artful ruse of existence that our greatest treasures would be hidden in our most dreaded dungeons? This ensures that only the bravest souls, those willing to confront their own abyss, ever taste the nectar of their boundless potential.
We hide from these dark corners, casting them off like unfashionable garments, yet they are woven from the same cosmic fabric that makes up the rest of our being. They are part of the eternal quilt of existence, bearing patterns and stories as vital as those in any other section.
Even the notion of lifetimes—as if we have a celestial inventory of lives—is itself a poetic way of saying that the search for these treasures is not confined to the here and now. It’s a quest that spans epochs, untethered by the tyranny of a single human lifespan. To explore the unfathomable depths of our darkness is to embark on a journey that catapults us into new dimensions of being. To meet the monster is to become the hero.
Indeed, the route to immortality doesn’t lie on a sunlit path strewn with roses but in the dark alleys and hidden crannies, where we discover the real stuff of which we are made—where we meet ourselves, in all our divine contradictions.
