O Palimpsesto de Terêncio

Ah, o sempre subestimado poder da palavra, conceito-criatura que sempre encontra um jeito de nos encontrar, cedo ou tarde, quer queiramos ou não, façamos o que fizermos para evitá-la. Palavras são como múmias de filmes de terror B. Por mais que corramos delas, um dia elas nos pegam de jeito, quando menos esperamos. Daí só nos resta gritar.

Toda a informação da qual precisamos está ao nosso dispor. Toda. Se não conseguimos encontrá-la agora, é porque nosso timing não está certo ou, mais frequentemente, porque simplesmente somos estúpidos demais para enxergarmos o que está diante de nossos narizes. O Inefável fala conosco o tempo todo; nós é que temos cera demais em nossos ouvidos espirituais para ouvi-lo. Um filme recomendado por um amigo, um livro que nos atrai como um ímã em um sebo ou livraria, uma frase dentro de um Biscoito da Sorte do China in Box, um maldito poster motivacional de curso de idiomas... et voilà! Inesperada como uma múmia num filme pornô e tão óbvia quanto, lá está a informação envolta em suas bandagens empoeiradas de signos, tropeçando inexoravelmente em nossa direção.

But I digress. Terence Trent D'Arby. Dele, só conhecia "Sign Your Name", "Holding On to You" e, claro, "Wishing Well", com seu vídeo emblemático da tenebrosa década de oitenta. Fiquei muito surpresa com a qualidade do texto do encarte de Vibrator, mas nem tanto com o conteúdo. Nosso amigo Terêncio repetiu para elaborar conceitos que já passeavam pela intelligentsia européia no século XIX. Além das óbvias obras de Allan Kardec (que, espírita ou não, todo mundo devia ler nem que fosse pra descobrir um modo de discordar coerentemente), há as de Teilhard de Chardin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teilhard_de_chardin), que com seu "The Phenomenon of Man" desagradou fabulosamente a Igreja -- e elaborou o interessantíssimo conceito de "noosfera", uma esfera de existência composta pela rede de pensamentos para a qual estamos caminhando, já que nossa cognição afeta a biosfera que nos rodeia. Percepção é realidade, e Chardin previu o novo estágio da consciência humana -- uma consciência trans-humana fruto da interação entre todas as mentes, que culminará no Ponto Ômega -- o objetivo final da História. Interessante, e familiar.

Há também o mais recente -- e absurdamente sagaz --"The Starseed Transmissions" de Ken Carey, um lenhador inculto norte-americano que recebeu "transmissões neuro-biológicas de entidades espaciais" e teve a coragem de colocar no papel as mensagens recebidas. Sua (?) visão da existência, da realidade e do futuro da humanidade é no mínimo intrigante e no máximo lunática -- ergo, prato cheio para piratas bulímicos como nós. É imperdível. Como eu sou uma menina legal, já me adiantei e achei o e-book pra você:

Leia. Leia. Leia. Como com "The Whitest Kids U Know" ( e o malfadado projeto "Little Miss Sunshine"), vou ser seu encosto cultural até que você adicione esse livro ao seu repertório existencial -- especialmente você, meu Huno querido, tão sensível às questões do Ser e do Relacionar. Um pequeno grande tira-gosto:

-----------------------------------------------

Chapter 1 - SINGULARITY OF CONSCIOUSNESS

I come from the Presence where there is no time but the eternal now. I retain, even in the midst of this relationship, an awareness of this realm and of the Universal Being that inhabits it. I come with a message that will prove vital to you in these final days of your history. My individual identity comes into being only as I enter the context of my relationship with you. When I am no longer needed in this capacity, I will merge back into the Being behind all being. There I remain in unity and fulfillment until the next impulse comes to send me on another mission. In the interim, there is no distinction between me and the Source. I and others of my kind desire at this time to bring humans to this same level of awareness. I am a focus of collective human consciousness, but at this time you have little conception of what that means. You do not yet suspect what the singularity of collective human consciousness might be. You still draw identity from the present form of your expression. You feel defined and limited by flesh and bones. You are only beginning to comprehend your oneness with other forms of life. For me to tell you, with these limiting definitions you have of yourself, that I represent an element or a focus of your collective consciousness, would actually be less accurate than to say that I am extraterrestrial I meet the criteria of the latter term in that I do come from outside your planetary field of influence. I bring instructions to your race from the directive organ of Galactic Being. When you remember your true nature, and begin to draw identity from the totality of your being, then it could be stated with all validity that I am an element of your own consciousness. However, at that point, you will no longer perceive me as you do now. When you have awakened to the reality of your true being, you will perceive me and all my species as being inside yourself. Until then, you perceive me as being outside yourself. There is but the filmiest of screens between your present condition and your true nature. It is our mission to assist you in bridging this gap, to awaken you from sleep, to bring you to the fulfillment of your destiny.

The state of consciousness that I represent does not normally verbalize. It. is difficult for me to relate what I wish to convey only through the words and concepts with which you are familiar. Your language was designed to facilitate commerce. What we put together with its components can only approximate my meaning. There is another, more ancient language, more conductive to discourse on this level, but you have forgotten it. Its transfer of information is accomplished through the actual projection of living informational units. These units are at once more specific and more inclusive than your words. They have been designed to convey organic information of concise, yet, comprehensive, informational content. Simultaneously with this conceptual communication, you are subliminally receiving this same information through the living language of light, though your preoccupation with words leaves you with no awareness of it at this time. My work will be complete when I have put you in touch once again with this ancient language. When you have learned to allow the silencing of your thoughts and have begun to focus attention on inner vibrational frequencies, you will become aware of a far more comprehensive picture of all that I am now telling you. Until such time as the life-giving information that comes to you from the source of your being is more readily accessible, I will work within the limitations of your linguistic structure and translate as accurately as I am able. Human beings have a tendency to become imprisoned in their concepts. You must remember that words and concepts can be both fallible and misleading. They are not absolutes. Do not contuse them with the realities they represent. No statement that I will make can be taken as an absolute statement. this does not mean that I am coming from a vague place. On the contrary, it means that your words are not precise enough to express the levels of vibratory awareness that I am attempting to communicate through them. If we are able to get the totality of our message through to even a few individual cells of your collective body, these few should be able to translate this information into forms of cultural expression that will bring about your awakening far more effectively than our overt manipulations of the historical process. The message that is revealed in these pages is the key that will unlock your own latent informational input systems. We are here to put you in direct contact with the source of all information. Our mission is to bring a pre-Fall state of awareness to all human beings who are able to respond, however different they may be, whatever background their may have come from, using whatever conceptual structures seem appropriate. These individuals will then be instructed to translate this awareness into forms of informational exchange appropriate to their respective cultural situations. As this new awareness increasingly filters into everyday levels of human function, and as more and more individual human cells become aware of what is taking place, the change will accelerate exponentially. Eventually, the psychic pressure exerted by a critical mass of humanity will reach levels that are sufficient to tip the scales. At that moment, the rest of humanity will experience an instantaneous transformation of a proportion you cannot now conceive. At that time, the spell which was cast on your race thousands of years ago, when you plunged into the worlds of good and evil, will be shattered forever. Even now, with the healing influx of new information, the spell is beginning to lift. Even as I speak these words, the materializing force fields of bondage and limitation are beginning to lose their influence on consciousness. During this period of vibrational transformation each of you will have a variety of roles to play. Each of you will translate the Life-impulse into patterns appropriate to your environment, and express this impulse in your daily living. I am now blending my consciousness with the cells of your body in order to provide you with some or the more specific information net that I do occasionally relate, but I do this as little as possible. My primary function is to show you how to tap these systems or data retention for yourself. With guidance, you will learn to release your definitions of who you think you are, open your self up to the experience of a much greater reality than you presently believe possible, and return to a level of consciousness where you will be able to communicate with us, not through cumbersome words and concepts, but directly, through communion with all that is.

Do you want to know more about extraterrestrials? Do you want a definition of angels? We are you, yourself, in the distant past and distant future. We are you as you were, would have been and still are, had you not fallen from your original state of grace. We exist in a parallel universe of non-form, experiencing what you would have experienced had you not become associated with the materializing process. I act in this capacity as a midwife at your birth into form. I am an angel of destiny, a messenger from the stars, but I am also the reflection of your unity before and after matter. I am here to enter your consciousness, here to wake you up. Blending with you now in this communication that is also communion, I can sense a forthcoming period of union. I sense its strange and awesome realities. I feel like an explorer in some vast and uncharted land. Are you aware of the uniqueness of physical reality? I sense both pleasure and pain at my entry into your events. I sense pain at the potential I see wasted and it my own commission to verbalize. But I sense pleasure at what I am experiencing through your senses; for though your sensory channels are, in your exclusive dependence on them, your great limitation, they are also marvelous instruments of perception. They are truly your crowning virtue as well as your tragic flaw. This is the first time that I have had the opportunity to perceive reality in this manner. I have never seen the structure of time and space reduced to such intricate and beautiful patterns. I would look out of your eyes for a while and take in the colors and the room and the trees outside the window, and delight in the curious way you perceive light -- as illumination! I would love to explore your world in a playful and child-like fashion. I can better understand now how you are deceived -- such a deep realm of awesome forces, the material Plane! Yet you will not be able to continue here much longer if we don't get on with the business at hand. Much that I am now seeing will not survive many more years of human ignorance. It is important that we use this time to supply you with the information you need. It is important that we restore you, as the central control mechanism of this planet, to a proper state of function. Perhaps a day will come, after all has been set to right again, when we can spend some time together just enjoying the wonders of Creation. I would delight in an opportunity to travel about with you, seeing what you would show me out of your eyes, hearing what you hear with your ears, feeling the touch of Earth on that wonderful substance that is at once both Sun and stone. But now there is work to be done. We must forge the conceptual tools that will set you free.

Food for thought. Ressoante. Acho que li o livro umas quatro vezes e nunca consegui evitar a sensação de alguém estar usando meu crânio como coqueteleira enquanto lia. Em um mundo de carbon copies, palimpsestos et nihil nove sub Sole, qualquer obra que consiga essa proeza vale a pena ser navegada, nem que seja pela ressaca do dia seguinte e pelo gosto de cabo de guarda chuva que jamais abandona os que se lançam nela.

Mas originalidade não é tudo. Nosso amigo alado do post anterior pode não ter dito nada de novo, mas seu grande mérito reside na beleza de sua prosa. Muitos artistas se perdem na angústia do "nada novo a dizer" sem lembrar que tudo já foi dito antes -- mas não do jeito DELES, e que este pode ser o único veículo a ressoar para um determinado grupo de pessoas.

Ressoar. Re-soar, soar novamente, repetir elaborando, adicionando, embelezando.

Hoje acordei orgulhosa de não passar de um plágio mal-feito de mim mesma.

Good vibes,

--X.

P.S. - Enquanto escrevia esse post tive que parar diversas vezes ao encontrar referências e pedaços de informação interessantes no caminho -- o que talvez sirva de justificativa para o aspecto Frankenstein do texto. Singrando os mares da World Wide Web acabei revisitando o conceito de Einstein de Spooky Action From a Distance -- que de longe é o título mais genial para uma teoria científica. A Física Quântica aproximando-se da teologia. Coisas que só existem quando observadas -- a ciência provando que a realidade depende de um observador. Percepção = Realidade. M.E.D.O.

Daí me veio a pergunta.... "Who watches the Watchmen?"
