This is an excerpt from one of my journals, excuse the long and rambling wording. I usually use writing to sort through the whirling thoughts in my head.
The veil, an perceivable barrier that separates the infinite potential of thought with the finite fate of the physical. Sure, we can think about something all we want, but actually putting it into motion creates a path for it that's set in stone, subject to fate's cause and effect. Whatever event caused creation made existence dependent on it. Fate for our realm solidified with that one event. The first cause and the first event.
On the mental side, we can theorize and play what-if all we want, on the physical side only one action can come from that potential. Everything we do and think is dependent on our experiences and genetic coding. Everything is happening as it should, for the progression of mankind. All evil and all good and all the indignation and interactions that occur between the two mentalities. We each hold values and others holds the same values, others still will hold the opposite values. None is higher than the other, because every part of the machine must be present for it to work. Without even the smallest piece of this elaborate puzzle nothing would be as it is today. But all things must happen, and all sides are represented. Without opposite forces there would be only stagnation, and humanity as a species cannot stagnate. Where lies the end of our seemingly infinite path?
I cannot see us breaking free of our current problems and trials until we bridge the gap between thought and the physical world. Until we truly know God, the quintessential question of mankind, we will continue to fight over divided ideologies and beliefs. If we bridge this gap, what power would humanity unlock. If we commanded potential into the physical what would be left to do on this earth?
Is the purpose a species-wide transcendence? Our world is just a miniscule piece, barely perceptible on the grand scheme of things in our universe. Would our transcended species clash then with species that found different answers? Would the answer then be to merge and understand them? To learn and grow off of our new clashes? What happens when we merge with them? If we learned all we could from everyone else, what would happen when all potential has been carried out and no new thought can be made?
Would our entire existence transcend into whatever dimension comes next? Or perhaps the entire physical reality would collapse on itself once it achieved perfection. Is our entire existence a cycle of achieve perfection and disassembling ourselves, scattering once more.
I cannot see an end other than complete assimilation of all things, yet one thought cannot hold forever, especially in the physical.

Re: Bridging the Gap
You’re flowing, Fourth Axis, positively flowing, a thoughtful torrent of words if ever there was.
Please excuse the tardy commentary but my focus has been diluted by playing catch up to a multitude of threads in recent times. Add a raging tooth abscess to the concentration-mix and I’m sure you get the picture of a wandering mind seeking solace from a shrieking hot bed of inflammation.
Anyway where was I? Enough of all such craven self indulgence!
The veil between thought process and physically enacting those thoughts is a tricky barrier, for it may act as a sedative to the act of doing, a little like wearing sun glasses to prevent people reading those thoughts or in reverse a comfort blanket to prevent us taking matters too far; an encouragement toward timidity perhaps? Yet by the same token, to tear the veil aside risks losing a valuable filter, a test bed of action and reaction, the half-world of look before we leap.
Indeed, we are of course assuming that all thoughts are good thoughts, so why put them into instant practice, which in itself is irrational, perhaps that is when the veil flutters amiably to one side for the sake of intuition.
The traditional yoga of the Himalayan Masters appears to enable using ‘the veil’ to deeper human benefit, via the phenomenon referred to as “the un-colouring of thoughts” aiding meditation. They say the purist joy of deeper meditation comes through un-colouring the mental obstacles that veil the true Self.
There are in this doctrine five types of interfering thoughts (although in our www.973-namuh-eht.com numeric leanings 5 is considered the number of balance the fulcrum between the forces). These are: knowing correctly (a designated hurdle that I take issue with), incorrectly knowing, imagination (a two way street perhaps because imagining an imminent awful event can be destructive, yet foreseeing one awful moment in time to perhaps mitigate the repercussions is a skill highly prized among clairvoyants), the remaining two types are deep sleep and memory.
In turn these thought types can be either coloured or un-coloured, that colouring is linked to ignorance, illness, attachments, aversions, and fears. The simple power of observation as to whether thought patterns are coloured or not is seen as a highly useful part of the process of purifying, balancing, stabilising, and ultimately calming the mind to bring on deeper meditation.
Is this a way to lift the veil to facilitate the emergence of true good thoughts that can be put into practice without restraint?
Fourth Axis I have only reached the veil section of your writings, how is that, a surfeit of verbosity? Nevertheless, I think it important to understand the value of the veil before all else. In truth the ancient wisdoms made far greater use of the veil than we do, while in the 21st Century our thought patterns are constantly disrupted by the intrusion of multi-media resources, puncturing that valuable mental gauze.
Yet, that said, our individual learning advances more rapidly than ever, for you will rarely see a set of encyclopaedias gracing the book shelves these days, other than in some antiquarian haven, however perhaps our ability to harness thought process does not, and as voluminous knowledge flashes through our hands does it really stick?

Re: Bridging the Gap
As always, thanks for the response. I really enjoy debating and learning from other's insights, and yours are always valued.
Astral projection is the propulsion is the soul into the spirit world, or so the beliefs say. I say that astral projection is propulsion into the mental network. These places are the same, but with varying labels. Same goes for their inhabitants. This is the infinite works of thought. My thought process and theory would be to 'bridge the gap' between astral and physical. Piecing the veil so to speak, or more aptly, building a connection through it. A mental construct held together by physical ritual.
In this way I attempt to change my surroundings through true intention alone, merely because I have the will to do so. Already it has had effects far beyond simple coincidence, and now I have proved that as long as someone has the will become change itself, then they can shape the world and opportunities around them.
What I have found is this, the world doesn't simply alter itself abruptly. At first no noticeable change is apparent, but as belief is steadfast and unyielding change soon becomes all around you. We probably do it without even realizing it. It's the law of attraction at its finest. Simple you say, we knew that? It doesn't end there.
Some days I cannot distinguish between reality and delusion, depending on my level of faith. If I want any hold on my sanity I have to take it slow. But this bridge, when paired with the higher levels of vibration can cause amazing things. And when paired with the lowest of vibrations it can be very destructive. I have seen both ends. We do this everyday, happy people bring happy and angry people bring angry.
What I'm learning now is using the vibrations to alter other vibrations, or to create a physical effect by altering an objects metaphysical counterpart. Largely unsuccessful because my rational brain doesn't allow it, and I don't have the real time to do away with old preconceptions. If any of you do however, attempt to go a little crazy and think the impossible possible, (like the matrix).
The few successful tests I've done have been too insignificant to mention with any excitement, but I get close. I think learning to astral project might help, but it's not required. What is most important is will and faith, unfortunately with my skeptic's attitude I often find my will working against me and my faith in short supply.
Long story short, if you hold no doubt and hold faith in a belief, it will happen. The strength of its effect is dependent on the strength of your will.
So every belief holds magic. And every thought holds strength. Using them to the fullest can create real magic with actual effects. It does require unlearning old ideas for most of us though.
