So what are we? We are conscious/choice and the entire output of conscious choice. There is no difference between your physical body and a tree or a frog or a paper clip or the entire container (remember the container is only ever what's in present moment awareness) It's all made of the same stuff except that your body is the central observation point. You need to observe all the choices you make, you observe through the observer, physical you.
The point of the container theory is to centralise power, to direct it better and to control it better. It actually is very well centralised, but theory about what consciousness is and where it is, destablizes it, hence the possible need for container theory.
If we can accept that we have chosen purposely this container to reside in with it's physical reality, time, growth, thought, emotion, people, cars, sky and all the other output of choice, then we can also see that maintaining it and changing it at will is all about choice.
You choose to have $5M
You choose to have a loving relationship
You choose to have good friends
You choose to be a good person
The choices we make and how much time and growth we choose to go with those choices dictates how long and how difficult manifestation will be.
I choose container theory, it's the only way for me to understand conscious/choice. |
