Introduction
Any discussion of consciousness must begin with the question of what consciousness is. Consciousness studies in science deal solely with neurology and the brain. But self aware persons throughout history understand that consciousness has nothing to do with the brain. We know this because after consciousness leaves the body (or anything biological) the body dies and then decays. And so an entirely different vocabulary is needed. Therefore we must use non-scientific terms when discussing consciousness, because science does not yet recognize that consciousness in not materially based. Some of this vocabulary is found in the subject of metaphysics, and a bit of it I made up in these essays to introduce new ideas.
Is consciousness a form of energy?
The Shift in human consciousness is well underway. With 8 billion human beings on the planet, a shift out of darkness is only possible when the spiritual energy of consciousness undergoes a massive change. Can you feel the energy shifting? Even my cat can feel it. He’s sensitive and high strung and he feels something is up but doesn’t know what it is.
The Shift is making me think even more whether consciousness is a form of energy. Consciousness is alive, it is the Animating Principle. If consciousness is a form of energy it must be a very refined, subtle sort of energy.
The Shift & the nature of human consciousness
The collective consciousness is largely focused materially, but the action is all in the Human Thought Space, on the spiritual/mental plane. The HTS is the dynamic collection of thought from everyone on the planet, as outlined in earlier articles. Thought forms are tiny little packets of energy and it’s possible to pick up on them. How many thoughts do 8 billion humans think every day? I’d imagine, quite a lot! That’s a powerful mental energy that almost no one considers has any meaning or influence. Carl Jung wrote about the collective unconscious and its effect on the human psyche, but the collective consciousness, I would argue, has an even more powerful effect.
Collectively, humanity is slowly orienting itself toward the reality of the relationship between consciousness and the physical universe. When the divine nature of the human being is understood by enough of us, we’ll get over the hump. War will gradually disappear, and peace on earth (or at least a tolerance of each other) will manifest.
But right now we are IN IT. As the human collective consciousness changes from Dark to Light it gradually breaks apart the dark underbelly of the old accumulated karma. People naturally get triggered because the dark actors and their dark activities become exposed. It’s paradoxical, really. The more the Light shines, the more darkness is exposed and the uglier things get. For a while.
This Shift is planet-wide. It’s like the old familiar ground underneath our feet is shifting, and it can get scary. So I thought I would go over the basic elements of consciousness as it relates to the physical world of human beings, as best as I understand it. This process is comforting to me, and hopefully the reader will also get something out of it. So here goes.
Universal Consciousness – God – the Creative Source, the Source of all life and the physical universe. The Home of the soul and the collection of all souls in the entire universe. (How many? Uncountable. There are 7 trillion small and large galaxies in the universe, and quintillions of planets – the scope of God is infinite.) Universal consciousness is the Source of the Divine.
Soul Personality – The soul develops a personality after many incarnations and an uncountable number of experiences. Every lifetime is lived from the perspective of one body. Positionally, an incarnated soul experiences from one viewpoint, one unique location in spacetime, which gives every soul a unique perspective. This unique perspective is guaranteed because material objects (bodies) are unable to occupy the same space at the same time.
And so the soul develops a personality as it works through lifetimes to develop a talent, or correct an injustice, or to perform any activity.
Why would a soul want to incarnate into the physical universe? Your guess is as good as mine. From my soul perspective, living a physical lifetime is exercise for the soul. Like going for a walk every day!
MerKaBa – The MerKaBa is the soul’s transport vehicle to and from the physical universe. The soul personality uses its MerKaBa at birth and at death to enter and exit the body. The MerKaBa sustains the body during the physical lifetime.
If we can believe Elisha’s Biblical account of the Ascension of Elizha, this vehicle is made of light.[i]
Here is my rendition of the MerKaBa: A massless toroidal (donut shaped) energy structure made of light. The interior toroid is the body’s aura. The outer toroid is the MerKaBa, which is supposed to go out radially 25 feet or so from the body.
MerKaBa. Body is in the middle; it is constantly fed by nourishing subtle energy.
MerKaBa animation
The MerKaBa reaches out into the universe, gains information, digests it (learns) and then reaches out again. It’s the sacred geometry version of an antenna.
At birth, the MerKaBa settles the soul into the body for the physical lifetime. During the life it provides a source of divinity or spirituality for the human being as he/she moves around the circle of life. Some people are aware of this divine source (or go looking for it), others are not and don’t care.
The Body – The body’s function is to allow the soul personality to interface with the vastness of the physical universe, to learn via experience, and to gain knowledge and hopefully wisdom throughout many lifetimes. But the soul personality needs a way to get in and out of the physical. The MerKaBa makes that happen.
The body is connected through the MerKaBa to the soul, and also (potentially) to universal consciousness. There is a direct line from the body to God for any human being in any physical lifetime. (See diagram above).
The Cycle of birth/death
Birth and death are at the same place on the circle because the soul personality enters and exits the physical universe from Home, and goes back Home again at “death.”
A person is most self-aware when he or she comes into the body just after birth as a helpless infant, and for the period of life at the end when it becomes clear that the body is failing. In both cases the MerKaBa opens up its portal to Home. Many accounts have been written about persons on their deathbeds seeing departed family members, or angels. Of course a person may also attain enlightenment via a spiritual experience like an NDE, but at the very beginning and the end of a lifetime the soul personality is at the forefront of consciousness.
Does an individual soul personality personally choose the circumstances of their birth? From the universal perspective it would seem logical that the soul personality can observe everything on earth before incarnation, because it doesn’t have a body yet. The soul personality must certainly understand that the true reality is the existence before one enters the body (Home). In this reality, the personality is fully conscious, and fully aware of all his/her past lives, the potentials of his/her upcoming life, and the complete Akashic Record of all of its experiences in every physical incarnation. So, very likely the individual is aware of where he or she is incarnating and with whom.
Understanding this means that the human being, from the very beginning, is not a victim.
As the person matures – as the body matures and the human being gains full spirit/mind/body consciousness, a sort of hybrid awareness is generated that combines the soul personality and the experiences in the current lifetime. The person gets into his life and often completely forgets about the soul awareness that is part of every human being’s consciousness.
In this state, the person resembles a game piece on a playing board. The piece is constrained by the rules of the game to only act in certain ways. The human being moving the piece (the “Higher Self”) and rolling the dice or playing a card is also constrained. The Higher Self is completely aware of the gameboard, the other players, and everything occurring on it. The player may make clever moves and win the game for its piece, but if it wants to discontinue the game it must withdraw the piece from the gameboard – the equivalent of dying.
In all cases of withdrawing from the game – death – the human being can no longer use the body and the soul component takes over. The soul personality, you, is immortal. There is never a time when you are not conscious. Even when the body sleeps the soul component is aware, and often experiences while dreaming. The MerKaBa, connected to the soul, keeps the body breathing. At death the MerKaBa escorts the person Home.
Self-aware persons understand this on some level. Those who consciously reject their divine origins are perpetual victims, antisocial personalities, sociopaths, psychopaths, or completely psychotic.
The level of irrationality or psychosis is proportional to the detachment a person has from their own soul.
The Shift is separating human beings based on their level of consciousness
It appears to me that our society is gradually separating into two large groups: those who don’t understand their divine origins, and those who are self-aware and/or gaining an understanding that their lives have a higher purpose. These two social groups can be broadly categorized as Collectivists and Creatives.
Collectivists are uniformly secular; materialists and skeptics. Their activities suppress creativity in favor of equal outcomes. In order to support this goal a collectivist requires agreement between members of society in all things and cannot tolerate divergent opinions, which get in the way of agreement. Fascists and communists (“democratic socialists”) – the extremes on the political spectrum – are both Collectivists, who regard Creatives as dangerous. Those who insist on free speech and freedom are, to the Collectivist, out-of-control extremists who are not able to get along (conform) to the social norms of the Collectivist’s agenda.
Creatives are those who, throughout the millennia, have moved society forward in the arts, technology and engineering, and in knowledge and spiritual understanding. Throughout history Collectivists have attacked Creatives, freedom lovers, and free thinkers for questioning authority.
Creatives can be a pain in the ass, but they provide the animating social force.
Throughout history, when the animating spirit moves through and within a movement or a society, it expands and is inclusive and accepting of new ideas. Compare that to society today.
This social split has nothing to do with political parties, which are manufactured organizations that whip up fervor for the latest mass-media promoted PsyOp.
The Shift, sacred geometry, and the structure of spacetime
The Shift also has to do with the increasing physics knowledge being brought forth. There are papers on teleportation, gravity control, and even manipulating the fundamental elements that compose the physical universe, including mass, time, inertia, and the speed of light. White House science adviser Michael Kratsios said during prepared remarks published on the official White House website last year that the U.S. now has technology “that can manipulate time and space.”
Manipulating the fabric of spacetime comes under the heading of Star Wars technology and is being made possible, in my mind, by the massive reorientation in human consciousness. On the very near horizon are a-neutronic (radiation and pollution free) plasma energy generators that completely obsolete the primitive technology of carbon fuels, inefficient and ugly solar panels, and grotesque wind turbines. Stay tuned!
Coherent thought neutralizes incoherent, dark thought
As the desire for peace, harmony, and prosperity grows stronger and stronger within everyone on earth, the MerKaBas of everyone deposit more and more coherent thought within the Human Thought Space.
There is lots of incoherent energy within the HTS. All I have to do to understand this is review what I did during the day, particularly when I am reading about current events. I am putting a lot of junky thoughts in there. So is everyone else, all 8 billion of us. However, during the Shift there are also many who are deliberately meditating and thinking about peace, like my friends Craig and Maurice. These meditations send very powerful coherent thought into the human thought space. When a jumble of incoherent, irrational, angry thoughts meet up with these coherent thought structures, they become organized in a more positive way.
“Sure,” you say. “But what happens when antisocial personalities see this benevolent energy? They get triggered and pissed off and put more garbage back in!”
That’s probably true, as reflected in current events. But coherent thought is far more powerful, far more organized and harmonious, than angry thoughts. This is reflected in sacred geometry, if you care to investigate the subject. Sacred geometry is based around the geometric ratio called Phi, or the golden section, and it has been around since the time of Euclid thousands of years ago. The geometries and mathematics based on Phi represent perfect mathematical harmony: coherent growth from the micro world of quantum mechanics to the macro world of stars and galaxies. These coherent structures are powerful and harmoniously organized, and they subsume incoherent energies. (If you are decent at simple math check out the geometry papers at my website, kjmaclean.com/Geometry)
Of course nothing in the physical world is perfect, but the point is that physical objects like the human body are BASED in this geometry and mathematics. A beautiful book by Gyorgy Doczi called The Power of Limits shows the harmonious structures in nature, the human body, and architecture. No math in this book, but lots of illustrations.
Organizing the Human Thought Space
Coherence >>>> Incoherence. Light >>>>Dark. As I’ve said many times in these essays, the real action is on the mental/spiritual plane in the Human Thought Space: the collective thoughts of 8 billion human beings.
Thought always precedes action. As the coherence of the human thought space becomes greater and greater, the power of evil becomes diminished. The Overton Window of permitted actions will shift upward, raising in harmony and coherence as a result.
Events sometimes occur and there is no physical explanation for them (like the current insanity in our society). Sometimes the explanations, like the shadows on the wall in Plato’s cave, have a source that is beyond the physical.
Your meditations, your joy, your compassion for others, organizes the human thought space and defeats the evil of the antisocial. These people are getting more and more triggered, more and more desperate, as they FEEL the energy on the planet shift, destroying their parasitical paradigm that feeds off the creativity of the human race and destroys it. So things might even get a little worse before they get better for the collective. However, individuals can shield themselves from the triggered by immersing themselves in coherent thought.
Addendum
MerKaBas, halos, and torii in Nature
The torus is a geometrically stable figure. The American philosopher Arthur Young modeled consciousness on the torus.
We have seen how the human MerKaBa is based on the the torus (donut). But what about the quantum world of the very very tiny? And the galaxies at very very large scales?
Physicist Tom Bearden (and others) say that the fundamental elements in the quantum vacuum (the zero-point energy field) are the tiniest little toroidal magnetic moments. 
A toroidal moment.
In electrical engineering, if you wrap a wire around the doughnut like the stripes on a candy cane and then send electricity through the wire, the electricity makes a magnetic field that goes around inside the doughnut hole, like a loop hidden inside a pastry. That special hidden looping pattern is what is called a toroidal moment. The magnetism doesn’t stick out the ends like a regular bar magnet. It stays curled up inside the doughnut shape. We might say it is a little magnetic mini-MerKaBa at the smallest scale.
These infinitesimal little toroids (an uncountable number of them) pack together and balance each other out. They form the almost unlimited energy capacity of the zero point field. Because they are all composed of electromagnetic energy, the zero-point field/quantum vacuum contains an almost unlimited amount of energy.
Even galaxies have MerKaBas or halos
.

The toroidal geometry exists at the quantum level, the human level, and the galactic level. Perhaps the universe is trying to tell us something about its fundamental nature.
Curiously, spiral galaxies also have halos:
Photos from NASA Hubble Space Telescope
When astronomers refer to halos they mean visible matter: dust and gas and old stars. However, NASA says that “A significant portion of the halo’s mass is made up of dark matter, which does not emit or reflect light but exerts gravitational influence on the galaxy.” What’s the difference between dark energy, dark matter, the zero-point energy field, and the MerKaBa? All four are an “invisible” energy source and are perhaps just different names for the same thing.
[i] The “wheel within a wheel” description has actually been diagrammed by a brilliant experimental physicist, Bob Greenyer. It’s fascinating to see what it looks like. Bob does research in Low Energy Nuclear Physics and lays a convincing claim to have discovered the sacred geometry of the universe. His 3 hour presentation is at https://remoteview.substack.com/p/o-day-another-dimension
You can see the wheel within a wheel structure at 1:11:35. The structures within the wheels are themselves toroids (donuts).
