Altering Frames
It is possible to shift the current of one’s existence through shifting the linguistic of how we define ourselves.
It is important to understand that we define reality through language, through the words we use when telling the story of our lives.
The Observer
The observer is a part of every equation.
It’s a hidden part.
It’s assumed in doing the math.
Without the observer as a piece of the equation,
The equation ceases to have meaning or purpose.

Hidden in Time
Time is measured through consciousness; it’s dependent upon an observer to define its meaning. This creates a quantum state of impermanence, which our mind then perceives as the passage of time. Moments happen, then, they are gone. If we aren’t engaged with the moment we’re in, that moment becomes lost to another, existing solely within our mind.

Conditional Surrender
The moment conditions are set you’ve lost the purpose of surrender. Surrender is about letting go, not giving up. This isn’t a statement about defeat. It’s about entering the flow of existence and detaching yourself from the outcome. It’s the conditions that set the parameters of defeat’s structure by introducing it to the equation. Setting conditions and expectations form the foundation for creating the attachments that bring about suffering.
Happiness is a state of being, not a state of mind.
Zendigity’s Interview – 8 Questions on Faith
Q: To you, what is God like? Describe God
A: If you start with the individual, the consciousness of that individual, and then expand it to many, and the consciousness of the group, then expand it into the consciousness of the planet, and all that’s entangled with it; then the universe; then all the universes. If you take the total awareness of it all, and then include all other possible dimensions into it, this is what I define as God.
Q. What do you value most in life?
A: I value the experience of being alive, being fully aware of the moment I’m in and allowing that awareness to reverberate through me into my surroundings.
Q: How would you describe your religious background and church involvement if any?
A: I’ve spent much of my life observing many churches, many people attempting to explain what’s been taught to them to decipher their reality. As a group, we take in information that’s shared from our peers; this helps us form the parameters of our mind, or mental map.
Q. What message do you think the church is trying to communicate?
A: Not the message they think they’re trying to communicate. The message being sent isn’t the one that’s being received by the listener; this is poor communication.
Q. What is faith?
A: Faith is the absence of certainty.
Q: What do you think it takes to be made right with God?
A: An awareness of the inherent balance of the universe.
Q: Describe what the name Jesus Christ means to you.
A: Rebellion, Jesus was someone who stood against the status quo. He saw how clouded people’s perceptions had become and cast a light upon how the church was overrun by political malalignment. Jesus spoke truth to the powers that be and exposed the corruptions of society. These actions have resonated through time, entangling many generations into contemplation of their meaning.
Q. Why do you think people do not go to church?
A: Because church has become a system of division which creates the illusion of inclusiveness only for those willing to accept reality as it’s defined by others. The consciousness of a group will shape the consciousness of an individual within that group, which then further shapes the consciousness of the group. The product of a cycle is a repetition of its being and a magnification of its faults. The idea of Church has become maligned by political influence intent on transforming it into a symbol of social ignorance which distracts people from actually seeking a higher meaning.
Awareness is what separates life from all other material existence. In awareness all things can be found. Expand this exponentially and then pull it back to realize that each of us is a unique point of connection in the entanglement of it all.
As we entangle our perspective with the perspective of others, we create a new defined point of perceptual awareness that’s shared through that entanglement. When our physical bodies die, the consciousness that’s been shared is what gets carried on in those that live.
This is the reality of heaven and hell, it’s all about how we’re carried forward by others once we’ve passed. It’s about how we’re remembered, and how we’ve affected those we’ve entangled with along the way.

One
Do you think I could drop me for a moment, and just be here alone?
Not while you’re here.
While you’re here, I exist.
Without you, there cannot exist a me to perceive you there.
It’s a balance that forms our shared reality.
You can ignore me, you can pretend I’m not there,
but even that recognizes me through my absence.
I’m still there, because without me, you don’t exist.
You and I are one, dependent upon each other to define our being.
We are many.
We perceive the world through many eyes.
We can divide ourselves in many ways,
but in the end,
we are one.

Enmeshed Reflection
With clear vision and clouded mind, we only see what we want to find.
With eyes closed and clouded heart, all that’s there gets torn apart.

Magic Does Exist
Magic absolutely exists, but not the way most think it does. That’s part of the problem that’s faced. We’ve allowed ourselves to be conditioned into thinking we understand the meaning of words because we understand what they mean today. When those words were written in the past, that meaning can be quite different than what we’ve been brought up to believe. If you drop the past and future, and pull yourself fully into the present. In total awareness of your being, there’s an energy that manifests itself and extends beyond your reach. This energy is magic in its purest form. In it, all things become possible. Existence as a whole falls perfectly into balance.

Impermanence of Experience
If there’s one defining characteristic of life, it’s that it’s constantly changing, continuously moving forward.
Nothing is guaranteed. Regardless of how it appears, everything can change at any moment, and when it does it always takes you off guard. Some people live their entire lives without ever knowing this truth, some are bombarded with its reality every day.
Many blind themselves to what their mind isn’t able to process, they can’t handle the parameters of anything that lay outside their immediate perception. This is a product of their conditioning, it’s how their taught to interact with their experience.
Zendigity is about encouraging a change of perception, not simply from one point to another, but one of a continual motion of openness to experience. We believe in redefining the concept of observational awareness through entanglement and interactions designed to refocus the mind.
