All is consciousness, beloveds. Consciousness is all. You see only through the peephole you see through. You can see no further than the window you look through. We are expanding your vision right now by giving you a bigger expanse to see through. Draw a circle in your mind of a round window you look out from. Keep making that circle wider and wider, until the end of the circle no longer fits the page. Keep expanding that circle in your mind until it goes beyond your room. Get your circle big enough so that it goes past the circumference of the globe. Take it beyond the galaxies. Take it until there is absolutely no place for a circle to be drawn whatsoever. The circle of your consciousness now encompasses all there is. It reaches nothingness. It reaches All-Knowingness.
The truth is that your consciousness surpasses the whole manifested world right now. The truth is that you have full consciousness right now. No one has more than you. You don't have more than anyone else. But, ah, the sizes of the windows My children look through makes all the difference in the world. In the world but not in Reality. What you are is unlimited. What you make presently available to you is limited, and so you, in the midst of no limits whatsoever, see limits and act upon what you see. What a paradox! You see only a part of the elephant of consciousness. That's how it is in the relative world.
Now, that's okay. Don't be dismayed. That is how the game is played. Instead of throwing dice, you throw consciousness around. That is the game you play. It is a kind of odds/evens. It is a kind of rock/paper/ scissors. This is the poker you play in the world. You play a hand of consciousness. In this consciousness game, beloveds, do not squint your eyes. Keep your eyes wide open. Your ears also. Do not play blind and deaf and certainly not dumb. Be dumbfounded, but that is quite different.
If you had been kept in one tiny room until now, wouldn't you be dumbfounded to find yourself in the middle of a prairie?
It is always so. You are put into a situation where your perception has to expand. Of course, your perception of consciousness expands with or without your attention. Expansion of consciousness is not a race you run, but it is the game you play. There is no rush. There is no rush! Play the best you can, and leave the rest to Me.
You can play solitaire. You can play gin rummy with a gang of players. You can alternate. In fact, you do. You alternate between ignorance and wisdom and all degrees in between. You alternate between love and being lost to love. Yet with each swing of life, with each hand in life, you swing further out until you surpass all the limits. You become unlimited, which is what you always were. You didn't know because that is the game you were playing in. You walked into this game. You chose the door you would go through. You chose the windows on the ledges. And yet, regardless of how you play, your conscious consciousness expands. Your awareness expands. That is all that can expand. Your consciousness itself cannot expand, not even one inch. Only the windows can open. The windows do open. And you do open them.
Sometimes you open the windows wide. Sometimes you open them only a crack. Sometimes you open them wide and then close them quickly so you won't see out. You fear an abyss when you need have no fear at all.
