Each human dips their creation brush into their Being, and paints their own nature into their life.
I am dead because I lack desire.
I lack desire because I think I possess.
I think I possess because I do not try to give.
In trying to give, I see that I have nothing;
Seeing that I have nothing, I try to give of myself;
Trying to give of myself, I see that I am nothing;
Seeing that I am nothing, I desire to become;
In desiring to become, I begin to live.
- from René Daumal
Noticing Your Being
Being With Your Own Being
NOTE: We share this because we find that Cynthia Bourgealt offers a couple of useful hints in her talk about Being.
"You can't do interbeing with a program that runs on separation..."
"There is a luminous web."
"Only by making your alchemical contribution can you find your place, meaning, wholeness and relatedness with everything. But we need the maps that are large enough to tell us that... We need groups of practitioners that have the boldness to go back and shift the indigenous maps out of an individual perspective... for how we belong together... in this dynamic web of exchange called love."
"It is an energetic issue... a perceptual issue. Until you have gathered and collected your Presence sufficiently, you are going to run the old default system because it runs at a lower energy... That's all you can do. Until a certain reservoir... a certain critical threshold of Beingness is generated and maintained [by building the Matrix to hold it...], it is impossible to escape the gravitational field of a dualistic, egoic, mental, rational thinking. In the Western world we say that's the only thinking there is. We refuse to acknowledge that there are any other fields out there."
Be... as a page that aches for a word
which speaks on a theme that is timeless,
and the one god will make for your days.
Sing... as a song in search of a voice
that is silent,
and the sun god will make for your way.
- Neil Diamond
Experiments
Greet People's Being From Your Being
Experiment YOUBEING.01:
In South Africa, 'sawubona' is the Zulu word for 'hello'. There's a beautiful and powerful intention behind that word because 'sawubona' literally translated means, "I see you, and by seeing you, I bring you into being."
PROBLEM: You know what this word means and the other person does not. Therefore you must make special efforts so that your Gremlin does not use this as a way of shocking people, being weird or different. Instead be vulnerable by immediately defining the word and saying why you are using it.
Discover What Blocks Being From Showing Up and Evolving
Experiment YOUBEING.02:
Sometimes
we need to dig a bit deeper
to unearth the treasure
~
As you embrace the ache within,
so can the ocean tides that swell behind it be raised
and released through the channel in your being
that exists between earth and heaven.
So as you cease to deny or wish to be rid of,
can all that seeks to know peace find its calm
within the space that allows it to expand and find a new existence
beyond the boundaries imposed before.
So can the motion created from this work of releasing
be harnessed as energy to fuel the transformation of your whole being,
from earth to soul and beyond,
reaching into the heart of your origin
and allowing for change on all levels at all times.
So can the path forward be lit by a new light
that shines from within.

These words come 31 May 2020 from Leonis School newsletter http://leonis.org in Australia, originated by Ron Bosanquet. Oddly enough they accurately, albeit poetically, describe some of our latest research in Possibility Management:
Gaia has included the evolution of consciousness in the human design.
This Experiment has 3 PARTS which you can do alone or with others online or offline, for example at your Possibility Team or Workshop. All parts need you to use your Beep! Book.
PART 1: Title a new page in your Beep! Book: HOW I BLOCK MY BEING FROM SHOWING UP. You may block your Being from showing up in the world out of fear that the worst thing that ever happened to you in your life will happen again. Let your Being write for 10 minutes. It knows how it is being blocked from showing up, feeling, sensing, speaking, moving, participating, sharing, giving feedback and coaching, revealing ideas, and so on. This might be painful to feel how much you block your Being. Feel the pain. Let the sounds out. Maybe even say out loud what you find to help others find this in themselves too. Keep writing.
PART2: Title the next page in your Beep! Book: HOW I BLOCK MY BEING FROM EVOLVING. Again start writing without figuring out before-hand what you will write. Your Being itself knows from its own natural attraction to evolution how you block your Being from evolving. Let your Being write for 10 minutes. In many cases, blocking your Being from evolving has to do with numbing yourself with smoking, alcohol, drugs, speeding, spending, flirting, self-hatred, mixed emotions like jealousy, feeding demons, etc. Your Box and mind are extremely creative when it comes to finding new ways to block evolution, for example, being weak, being confused, being overwhelmed, being a victim, competing and losing, being hopeless or desperate, going in debt, making promises you cannot keep, etc.
PART 3: Do this part with a partner, or if you can arrange it, in a group of 3. One person is the first Client. The others are Possibilitators.
Client reads their list from PART 1 out loud about how they block their Being from showing up.
Titles a new page in their Beep! Book: EXPERIMENTS FOR SHOWING UP.
Asks, "Would you please give me Possibility about ways to unblock my Being from showing up?
And then for 8 minutes write as fast as you can what the Possibilitators say. Not what you think they say or understand them to say, but what they actually say.
and then and for 8 minutesPART 2 above to the other two listeners. When you are finished, ask them this question: and then ways to unblock my Being from evolving?" If they say, "Yes," then write two new headings in your Beep! Book: and, EXPERIMENTS FOR EVOLVING. Then spend 7-10 minutes on each of the two questions, writing down their suggestions as fast as you can. Then change roles and do the same for the other two, one at a time.
Change Yourself To Attract More Presence of Being From Others
Experiment YOUBEING.03:
People do what they do because it is pretty much the best they can do, regardless of how what they do looks to you.
The same is true of Being.
People Be what they Be because it is pretty much the best they can Be.
This applies to you as well.
You reveal your Being - to the degree that you reveal Being - by reflex. That is, by habit, by conditions, by following the survival strategy of your Box.
This Experiment has two approaches. One approach is 'Verbal', meaning you actually ask the question to another person out loud in words. (But not by email or by messaging... both email and messaging are nearly unstoppable feeding grounds for Gremlins.)
The other approach is 'Internal', meaning you hold the question inside yourself and aim it at yourself to see what it can do with you.
During this week, use both the Verbal Experiment and the Internal Experiment, alternating between the two, or do both simultaneously.
Make notes in your Beep! Book about what shifts when you do this Experiment. Document the ways your experience of yourself and others changes. Document what you learn. Try to formulate what you learn as Distinctions.
HERE IS THE VERBAL EXPERIMENT:
Ask the person across from you this question. Then wait up to 3 minutes for their answers. Ask for more than one answer. Beg them to realize that you will not believe them if they say, "I don't know." In other words, tell them that saying, "I don' know," is a torpedo that blows up their own internal resources of knowing, and that you actually want to hear what they would say. Ask them, "What are the conditions that would support your Being to take one tiny step further out into the world being Present with me?"
HERE IS THE INTERNAL EXPERIMENT:
When you are walking down the street, when you are in a meeting, when you casually pass a colleague in the hallway, or sit with someone for a meal, hold this question very precisely but internally - that is, without saying it out loud, "What could I do differently that the other person's Being would take one step further in showing itself and being seen by me?" Whenever you get an impulse to change something in you, such as speaking less, looking longer in their eyes, staying more still, breathing more slowly, etc., try it, being careful that the impulse does not shock people or make you look too strange to them.
Notice Your Being
Experiment YOUBEING.03:
NOTE: This website is a Bubble in the Bubble Map of the free-to-play massively-multiplayer online-and-offline matrix-building thoughtware-upgrade context-shift personal-transformation game called StartOver.xyz, powered by Possibility Management. It is a doorway to experiments that upgrade your thoughtware so you can create more possibility. Your knowledge is what you think about. Your thoughtware is what you use to think with. When you change your thoughtware, you go through a liquid state as your mind reorganizes itself. Liquid states can bring up transformational feelings and emotions. By upgrading your thoughtware you build matrix to hold more consciousness. No one can do this for you. No one can stop you from doing it. Our theory is that when we collectively build one million more Matrix Points we will change the morphogenetic field of the human race for the better. Please choose responsibly to read this website. Reading this whole website is worth 1 Matrix Point. Doing any of the experiments earns you additional Matrix Points. Please use Matrix Code YOUBEING.00 to log your Matrix Points at https://login.startover.xyz/. Thank you for playing full out!
