[STAGE VI | ULTIMATE REALITY] Core Star Essence: The Holographic Self

Dream 1

Dream 2

In Dream 1, I see a large golden sun presented diagrammatically in the sky. Its light shines down and connects to a person’s core. In Dream 2, from a different vantage, this inner spark of light in each of us appears as stars scattered across the night sky.

On the level of the core star, everyone looks like a beautiful star. Each star is different. Each star is the internal source of life within. In this inner place, we are the center of the universe. Here is localized the divine individuality within each of us.

Light Emerging: Light Emerging (Barbara-Brennan, 2002, p. 28)

This dream reveals our deepest level—the core of our being—where our individuated divine essence resides, paradoxically one with the Divine itself.

What may be confusing about the core essence is that it also exists in the divine unitive principle, or God. That is, it is both the individuated God within us and the universal God at the same time.

Once you can experience your core essence, you will be able to find it everywhere. You will find it in your body […] you will find it everywhere in your life. You will find it stretched out to the far reaches of the universe. You will find it everywhere you look for it.

Light Emerging: Light Emerging (Barbara-Brennan, 2002, p. 306)

The core star level leads to a holographic perspective: everything is connected, each part contains the whole, and even time itself is holographic. (Light Emerging, Barbara Brennan, 2002, p. 39)

That essence is found within the core star level of every living creature. It is found within everything. It is everywhere. Everything is ultimately interpenetrated with essence, consciousness, and mind. M-3 metaphysics, then, most naturally brings us to holism and the interconnectedness of all things.
