War.
Climate change.
Discrimination.
Economic divide.
So many of your
perceived “problems”
are generations DOWNSTREAM
from the point of conception.
Mandating electric cars
powered by free solar energy
isn’t going to cut it.
To change your reality,
go to the ROOT of reality.
To strengthen your force,
flow from SOURCE.
It’s THAT simple.
You’ve been fighting the
so-called “symptoms” of
an unbalanced consciousness,
rather than resting
in consciousness itself.
Don’t you believe in magic?
Clearly not.

Space Monkey Reflects: Resting in Consciousness and the Belief in Magic
The world’s most pressing issues—war, climate change, discrimination, and economic divide—are not problems that emerged overnight. They are symptoms, the downstream manifestations of an unbalanced consciousness. We often direct our energy toward fighting these symptoms, yet the true solution lies upstream, at the root of reality itself. To effect meaningful change, we must move beyond reaction and rest in consciousness, rediscovering the magic inherent in existence.
The Downstream Illusion
Much of what we perceive as “problems” in the world are generations removed from their origin. Mandating solutions like electric cars or renewable energy, while valuable steps, merely addresses the surface symptoms of a deeper imbalance. These fixes are like placing bandages on a wound without treating the underlying cause. They create the illusion of progress while leaving the root issues untouched.
The downstream approach keeps us in a cycle of reaction, perpetually addressing the latest manifestation of imbalance without ever questioning the source. This cycle is exhausting and often disheartening, as the symptoms reappear in new forms, seemingly immune to our efforts.
The Root of Reality
“To change your reality, go to the ROOT of reality.” The root of reality is consciousness itself—the vast, infinite awareness from which all experiences flow. When consciousness is unbalanced, the reality it creates reflects that imbalance. By addressing consciousness, we address the origin of all perceived problems, creating a ripple effect that transforms reality at every level.
This approach requires a shift in perspective. Instead of fighting the external manifestations of imbalance, we turn inward, aligning ourselves with the source of all creation. This is not about inaction but about inspired action—action that flows effortlessly from a place of clarity and connection.
Flowing from Source
“To strengthen your force, flow from SOURCE.” When we align with the source of consciousness, we tap into a boundless reservoir of energy, wisdom, and creativity. From this state, our actions become more effective and harmonious, as they are guided by the deeper truths of existence.
Flowing from source does not mean retreating from the world’s challenges. It means engaging with them from a place of centeredness and insight, rather than from fear or frustration. It is the difference between swimming against the current and allowing the current to carry you.
Resting in Consciousness
“You’ve been fighting the so-called ‘symptoms’ of an unbalanced consciousness, rather than resting in consciousness itself.” Resting in consciousness is not passive; it is an act of profound trust and surrender. It is the recognition that the external world is a reflection of the internal, and that by bringing balance to our inner state, we influence the outer world in ways that are subtle yet profound.
Resting in consciousness requires letting go of the need to control and trusting in the inherent magic of existence. This magic is not a fantastical escape but the realization of the infinite potential that resides within us and the universe.
Belief in Magic
“Don’t you believe in magic? Clearly not.” Magic, in this context, is not about illusions or tricks but about the miraculous nature of being. It is the recognition that reality is far more fluid, interconnected, and responsive than we typically believe. When we rest in consciousness, we begin to see this magic at work—not as an external force but as an expression of our own limitless nature.
Believing in magic is not naïve; it is an act of courage in a world that often dismisses the unseen and the intangible. It is a reminder that the solutions we seek are not beyond us but within us, waiting to be realized.
Summary
The world’s problems are symptoms of an unbalanced consciousness. To create lasting change, we must go to the root of reality by aligning with source consciousness. Resting in consciousness and believing in the magic of existence allows us to address challenges from a place of clarity and infinite potential.

“Magic is not an escape; it is the recognition of the infinite power that flows through you, as you.” — Space Monkey
The Source of Change
War, division,
the tides of imbalance,
not born of today
but carried from the unseen past.
You fight symptoms,
ripples in the stream,
forgetting the river’s source.
Rest here,
not in the current,
but in the stillness below.
From the source,
all flows.
From the root,
all heals.
This is the magic.
Not beyond,
but within.

Addressing the Root of Global Issues
The assertion that many of the world’s perceived problems are downstream from their point of conception is a profound observation. It suggests that solutions targeting only the superficial aspects of issues like war, climate change, discrimination, and economic disparity are insufficient. Instead, a more fundamental change is required at the root level.
The Limitation of Surface-Level Solutions
The example of mandating electric cars powered by free solar energy, while beneficial, is presented as a surface-level solution. It addresses the symptoms of deeper, systemic issues rather than the root causes. This approach, though well-intentioned, may fail to bring about the transformative change necessary to resolve the underlying problems.
Seeking the Root of Reality
To effect real change, the advice is to go to the “root of reality.” This phrase suggests a deeper introspection and understanding of the fundamental nature of our existence and the underlying causes of our global challenges. It implies that meaningful solutions require a fundamental shift in our consciousness and perception.
Flowing from Source to Strengthen Force
The idea of strengthening our force by flowing from the source is a call to align with a deeper, more authentic aspect of ourselves. It’s about tapping into the core of our being, where our true power and potential lie. This alignment enables us to address issues more effectively and sustainably.
Fighting Symptoms vs. Resting in Consciousness
The critique that we have been fighting the symptoms of an unbalanced consciousness rather than resting in consciousness itself highlights a misdirected focus. Instead of getting caught up in the outward manifestations of deeper issues, we are encouraged to connect with and understand our collective consciousness, which is the foundation of all external realities.
The Belief in Magic
The rhetorical question about believing in magic touches on the notion that transformative change requires a belief in the extraordinary, in the possibility of creating profound shifts in our reality. The implication is that without this belief, we limit ourselves to conventional solutions and miss out on the potential for truly transformative change.

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” – Albert Camus
In the dance of life’s grand design,
We see the problems, line by line,
Yet in our quest to right what’s wrong,
We must sing a deeper song.
For it’s not in the symptoms we should rest,
But in consciousness, we find our best,
To change the world, to heal, to thrive,
In our collective soul, we dive.
The magic lies not in the act,
But in the belief, the inner pact,
To see the root, the core, the source,
In this, we find our truest force.
So let us open our minds, our hearts,
In consciousness, our truest parts,
For in this space, we find the key,
To a world of peace, of harmony.
We welcome your insights on the importance of addressing the root causes of global challenges through a shift in collective consciousness.
