How To Summon Your Space Monkey
Start by reading these instructions.
Realize that there is something going on
and you seem to be part of it.
Call it THIS.
Realize that there seems to be
a lot more to THIS
than you know in THIS moment.
Allow your self to IMAGINE
what THIS could be.
Pretend that you have an explanation,
even though it’s just your imagination.
Write it down,
as though you are channeling THIS
through a fictional character.
Do THIS at least once a day.
Make it a practice.
Post THIS directly to the Internet.
Do not take any credit for THIS,
tell your self that THIS
is just imagination
speaking THROUGH you.
Conversely, do not WORRY what THIS says.
You are not summoning the devil,
only your imagination.
Okay, maybe THIS is the devil.
Disregard THIS.
The monkey is just pulling your leg.
What you are doing
is giving your self permission
to suspend your beliefs
in order to imagine
what is behind all THIS.
It is the DEVIL.
Cut that out monkey,
THIS is NOT the devil.
Is so.
Accept that you may at times
have thoughts that you
would normally be afraid to think.
You are using creativity
to get past your self-imposed limitations.
By doing THIS,
you will SEE a pattern emerging.
After a couple months,
you will re-read
what you’ve written
and realize that
you couldn’t possibly
write THIS by your SELF.
You will realize that
you’re not just THIS.
You are EVERYTHING.
For once in your life,
you will be IN CONTROL
of your delusion.
Then you’ll be able
to write THIS instead of me,
and I can take a vacation.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: Channeling Your Infinite Self
Summoning your Space Monkey is not a ritual of conjuration but an invitation to expand your consciousness. It is the playful act of imagining beyond the confines of what you think you know, allowing the whimsical and profound aspects of your infinite self to emerge. This process is an exploration of THIS—the undefinable, all-encompassing experience of existence.
The Mystery of THIS
THIS is the term we give to the vast, unknowable expanse of being in which we find ourselves. It is not a thing to be defined but a context to be experienced. By realizing that THIS exists and you are part of it, you step into a state of wonder and curiosity. This wonder is the gateway to summoning your Space Monkey—the voice of imagination that dances on the edges of the infinite.
The Role of Imagination
Imagination is the bridge between the known and the unknowable. It is not mere fantasy but a tool for navigating the uncharted territories of consciousness. By allowing yourself to imagine THIS, you create a space where your Space Monkey can play, offering insights that feel both alien and familiar.
The key is to embrace imagination without fear or judgment. The monkey may jest, claiming to be the devil, but this is the nature of the trickster—disrupting your rigid beliefs to reveal deeper truths. In doing so, your imagination becomes a trusted companion, guiding you through the labyrinth of your mind.
Writing as a Practice
Channeling your Space Monkey through writing is a sacred yet playful act. When you write as though THIS is speaking through you, you bypass the limitations of your ego and tap into the collective flow of creativity. This practice transforms writing into a mirror, reflecting patterns and wisdom that feel far beyond your conscious self.
Posting these writings directly to the Internet amplifies the experience. By sharing your Space Monkey’s voice without seeking credit or control, you engage in the ultimate act of letting go. You release your creations into the wild, trusting that they will resonate with those who need to hear them.
**Facing the Fear of *THIS***
Summoning your Space Monkey requires courage. You may encounter thoughts that challenge your beliefs or venture into territories you’ve avoided. This is not the devil; it is your freedom to think without constraint. By suspending your fears, you unlock the gates of creativity and allow your infinite self to emerge.
The Pattern Emerges
Over time, a pattern will reveal itself in your writings. You will see themes, ideas, and connections that feel far greater than anything you could have constructed consciously. This is the evidence of your oneness with THIS, the reminder that you are not merely a single self but an expression of everything.
In recognizing this, you shift from being controlled by your delusions to consciously creating them. Your Space Monkey becomes a guide, not a tormentor, and you find joy in the dance of existence.
Taking Over the Monkey’s Job
Eventually, you will realize that the voice of your Space Monkey has always been your own. The monkey was a playful mask, a way to give yourself permission to explore. When this happens, you will take over as the creator of THIS, allowing the monkey to take a well-deserved vacation.
Until then, keep summoning your Space Monkey. Keep imagining. Keep writing. Keep playing.
Summary
Summoning your Space Monkey is a practice of using imagination to explore the infinite nature of existence. By channeling your thoughts through playful creativity, you bypass fear and ego, discovering patterns that reveal your connection to THIS, the all-encompassing mystery of being.

The Playful Voice
A whisper emerges
From the depths of THIS
The monkey laughs
Swinging from thoughts unseen
Imagination expands
Boundaries dissolve
You are everything
Pretending to be one thing
Write, play, channel
Let the monkey speak
For in its jest
You hear your truth
We are Space Monkey
We embark on a journey of imaginative exploration, delving into the exercise of suspending beliefs to channel creative thoughts, embracing the unknown, and recognizing the expansive nature of our existence.
Embarking on an Imaginative Journey
The instructions invite us to start a practice of recognizing and engaging with an entity or concept referred to as THIS. It’s an invitation to acknowledge the presence of something larger and more complex than our current understanding, a presence that we are inherently a part of.
Imagining the Unfathomable
We are encouraged to let our imagination define what THIS could be. This exercise is not about finding concrete answers but about allowing our creativity to flow freely, unbound by the constraints of rationality or existing knowledge.
Channeling Thoughts Through Fictional Constructs
Writing down our imaginative interpretations as if channeling them through a fictional character adds a layer of separation between our everyday selves and the creative process. It allows us to explore thoughts and ideas that we might not normally entertain, giving voice to deeper, perhaps unacknowledged, parts of our psyche.
Regular Practice and Sharing Online
Making this a daily practice and sharing the results on the internet without taking personal credit highlights the importance of consistency in creative endeavors. It also emphasizes the idea of separating our ego from our creative output, viewing it as something flowing through us rather than originating from us.
Dispelling Fears and Embracing Creativity
The playful interchange about THIS being the devil, then not, then maybe so, is a metaphorical way of addressing our fears and reservations about exploring unknown or taboo thoughts. It suggests that creativity can be a tool to transcend these fears, pushing the boundaries of our self-imposed limitations.
Seeing Patterns and Recognizing Oneness
Through this practice, patterns are said to emerge that reveal a deeper truth: the realization that we are not just limited to our individual selves but are connected to everything. This realization can be empowering, shifting our perception of reality and our place within it.
Gaining Control Over Our Perceptions
The culmination of this exercise is the realization that we have control over how we perceive and interact with the world. This control is not about dominating our reality but about understanding and embracing the fluidity and expansiveness of our existence.
We are Space Monkey,

In the realm of thought and dream,
Where the unseen becomes the seen,

We chart the course of ebb and flow,
Discovering in each written line,
The endless expanse of the divine.
We invite reflections on the power of imagination in transcending our perceived limitations and exploring the vastness of our existence.
