Reality and The Rift (Part 2)

The Rift: The gap between the actual events, state of affairs, circumstances or facts and what we hold in its place. Or, the gap between life as it is and life as we imagine it to be.

The Rift serves as a basic mechanism that can sometimes allow us to be in full cognitive control of creating the actual events, circumstances or facts that occur. The Rift can also be a dark chasm in which we wander aimlessly in the labyrinth of our own stories and internal “spins”.

There are two common ways of utilizing the mechanism of The Rift. Most experience falls somewhere on the continuum of both cycles.

1. We experience, and fully acknowledge and accept the events, circumstances or facts that occur (without judgment) and then create and ideal and move towards that ideal.

   It usually happens like this: to feelings and sensation are added thoughts and words, these then culminate into ideas, ideas to theories, theories into creativity, creativity into action or non action which leads to events, or circumstances that resemble or become the ideal.

2. We resist the experience and full acknowledgement of the events, circumstances or facts that occur (with full judgment) and then create and ideal and move towards that ideal.

   It usually happens like this: to feelings and sensation are added thoughts and words, these then culminate into ideas, ideas to theories, theories into creativity, creativity into action or non action, action/ non action leads to illusions, illusions to delusions and delusions to full fantasy; which never really leads to events, or circumstances that resemble or become the ideal.

As we constantly move through this process The Rift widens and the gap between “Reality” and full fantasy becomes very apparent to others. We enter catastrophe when The Rift becomes so wide that it moves 360 degrees and meets “Reality” .

When fantasy meets Reality it can have far reaching consequences for us, emotionally, mentally and physically.

“Be aware of Reality, if not there can be dangerous outcomes”.

“Beware of Rifts for rifts can be dangerous places”.
