THE STORY OF JOHNNY WHOOPER SWAN We go to school trusting our parents. We meet a teacher there who stands up front with a big desk, and a pointer. She or he trains us in an authoritative manner. We attach mentally to a life long need for authority in order to live lives successfully. Right so far? In my case, at the age of 25 I was ready to enter the practice of law where I hoped for success and a happy life finally. Very shortly, very shortly, I became anxious. There was a foreboding. I was made more uncomfortable with each experience. Law work is nothing like what I was told it would be. The system is corrupt. But I still cling to my expectation that career success is necessary to my happiness as a man. Each day my grasp of what the fuck success amounts to after all becomes more clouded, murkier. I hear songs on the airwaves and at concerts which describe my life as the life of a fool. What am I becoming? I want to rip off my business suit to run naked in the street with my hair on fire! But I am too afraid. In strange, weird (weird comes from a word meaning wise), fragmented steps I go about a journey of my own believing myself to be the first man to have failed in such a total way which journey works so as to break up my career, end a marriage, and start an entirely new way of relating with my two children whom I love deeply. Almost magically I meet a woman who is a career counselor who asserts a beautiful message that I am made to be joyful in my work everyday and at all levels. This understanding sets me on a completely new course. It is no longer a world of systems to me but an undivided one of unlimited beauty. It reminds me of a painting. A true masterpiece. I am drawn from within to learn the truth about my identity and nobody else can teach me that. From this point onward I will use thinking capacity for mastering mechanical processes and follow my heart, which includes my whole nature, which includes your whole nature and that of every human being for all the rest. I’ll go by the name Johnny Whooper Swan who does not explain itself to anyone. By my fruits shall I be known. Watch me soar!

WHY NOT?

Suppose there is one all-inclusive human consciousness. See that the personality of any human is contrived when thinking invades a space or dimension where it is incompetent to go. Now. Suppose consciousness composes a piece of music and that work is credited to a personality with a name agreed upon within a society of personalities. Such a thing is common as a cold in our world today. 


What happens when all of a sudden consciousness, the actual author of the piece, reclaims it and plays it through hands of a new, previously unheard of player? Yeah. That’s right. We call it genius. Many personalities are greatly affected by this and thrown into a state of shock. A whole new thing is labeled and many try now to copy the genius. Books are written. Records are broken. But the world stays the same or grows worse. 


Now. What if that were the norm? That is, what if all people expressed exclusively through an all inclusive human consciousness never letting a personality bound up in thought and time take the credit? In that world everybody would be of equal value and there will be no leading roles. Can you conceive of living in that world? Why not? It is so that no personality can make that happen since personalities are mischievous fakes but any ol’ “nobody special” can start to dance thataway. 


What has anybody in this corrupt world got to lose by trying? The important thing to know before trying is that it will require absolute emptiness of any purpose to enter the all inclusive consciousness of humanity as a whole. Trying to do it in order to achieve anything for the personality is no change at all. Whoever knows he has no purpose has one. 


It ought be added here that when anybody dares to begin there will be such an explosion of passion and love all over the world everyone will be amazed and ways will be opened never dreamed possible and heads will spin and hearts will rejoice. All will see open windows which were not there a moment ago and so much greater an intelligence will prevail.
