F.: The next question from the May 12 posting that—if answered accurately—can move persons along the “path” to Realization was, “Where were you prior to conception?” The entry continued:
That is, before the sperm fertilized the egg, where was the sperm? How did that sperm happen to exist in that location? Since neither the sperm in men nor the eggs in women are obtained by eating sperm or eggs, what was consumed that “made” the sperm and egg and that provided its energy? Where did the energy that was in that consumed source come from?
Yesterday, the pointer was offered that “there was no body with beingness prior to the manifestation of the conscious-energy that You Are.” The You that You Are existed, but "you" did not; that is, the conscious-energy existed prior to manifestation, just as it shall exist post-manifestation. The body-mind-personality that persons take themselves to be, however, had no prior existence. Rather than your “birth” being some “godsend” or the result of some “supernatural influence,” the body came about as a result of a simple act of friction.
Where was the sperm before it fertilized the egg in your “mother”? In the body of he whom you call your “father.” And how did the sperm happen to exist in that location? Your father ate plants—or animals that had eaten plants—and the cycling of cells as discussed in the 24 May post happened. Among the cells that were cycling via the space known as your “father” were millions of sperm cells. So both the sperm cell and the egg that were involved in the conception that would be “you” existed because two humans ate plant food that transferred the energy-conscious from plants to cells. Where did the energy that was in that consumed source come from? Back to the scientist Szent-Gyorgyi: “What drives life is thus a little electric current, set up by the sunshine.”
The entire process that resulted in sperm cells, in eggs, in an act of friction and impregnation, and in eventual “birth” was a totally natural happening that was driven by the sun and by the natural urge to copulate. No more thought went into the entire process that resulted in “you” than went into an oak dropping an acorn that resulted in another tree. The same process that results in squirrels and rats or in eagles and crows also happened with "you." The consciousness “guides” it all, “oversees” it all, and has “dominion” over the entire process so that it all seems to happen automatically. Once the egg is fertilized, the “father-to-be” has no further input, and neither does the “mother-to-be.” She does not have to squint and push and twist and say, “Today, I’ll make arms for the fetus.” It just all happens spontaneously and naturally. Since that is how “you” came to be, that is the only sane way for “you” to live: naturally and spontaneously. As with all life forms on the planet, “life” is (a) “driven by an electric current” called “conscious-energy” and is (b) “set up by the sun.” That consciousness is all there is. All else is distorted perception. Any images that are eventually thrown onto the screen of warped consciousness are taken to be real, but they are merely images and are not real.
So where were “you” prior to conception? Trace the “stations” in reverse back to the location of the sperm prior to ejaculation, back to the plant food which was eaten and “made” the sperm, back to the plant food, back to the sun, back to the original hydrogen and helium atoms that crashed together and exploded in a fashion that resulted in “this universe,” back to all prior universes and back to the pool of energy that was, is, and shall forever be (which was neither created nor shall ever be destroyed). Then the functioning of the totality will begin to be revealed, and then you will understand how it is that I have been present for the manifestation of all of the universes, and so have You. Then, too, You will understand that nothing “Supreme” was involved with the copulation, with the friction, with the ejaculation, with the movement of sperm cells during the race to the egg, or with the conception that resulted in the body that you take to be “you.” Contrary to comments made by overly-proud parents, therefore, “you” are not “Supreme” either. (Nor are you the “worm” that puritanical dogma sets forth. You Are merely the Amness, for now, but You Are That forever.) You Are but that manifested conscious-energy that temporarily “abides” in a space and which shall eventually unmanifest and cycle to the pool of universal consciousness from whence You “came.” What healthy result—in terms of being free of the influence of arrogance and egotism—might follow your realizing the truth of how you were conceived (naturally) and how your body came to be (spontaneously)? Do you realize that You will be just fine if You realize that You are neither "the best" nor "the "worst"? Do you realize that the remainder of the period that the consciousness is manifested can be far more enjoyable if you are, in fact, freed of the influence of all dualistic beliefs? Please enter the silence of contemplation.
