A Person is not a Psychological Entity
It's what Almaas says, in the book "The Inner Journey Home". It's true, too.
Nothing preexists, in reality, not even you or anything about you.
It's all a story you make up, your entity-hood.
It's always right now. You are your experience, right now.
Your experience right now is all you will ever have or be, in reality.

If that's true, there's not much of a need for you to worship fictitious Egyptian invisible cloud beings, is there? Or to be their "messiah" either.

RE: A Person is not a Psychological Entity
WE have always been here and we will always be here. This is what it means to be of the one.
Your personality is important, it is one of the reasons you are here. You will use it forever adding to it eternally.
this said,
The facet of yourself that you currently connect with is not you in its entirety.The personality you play with now is a small part of something greater. It is a limited you... much like many popular video games where a version of your fantasy is acted out on a screen while a larger more in depth and complicated you is at the controls somewhere else. Unlike the video game however, the personality you play under today remains a part of you forever. You will take it with you into future so called reality's. It will become part of the one. Part of the experience of all that is.
picture a baking pan half filled with water then placed on a vibrating machine. The vibrations cause the water to become agitated sending up hundreds of strands of water that fly into the air in long stringy tentacles never fully pulling away from the body of water below, just rising and falling again and again at random. Each tentacle rises and falls again and again. IF one could not see the pan below with the water source. They might presume all the strands of water were distinct and separate.
The personalities we see in this reality are the strands of water rising and falling in and out of the pan. But in a deeper more complete truth it is not new personalities or water, but one large personality with many facets rising out of the larger body of water below.
This is our connection to each other and eventually our connection to god

we have evolved into a society of friggin' navel gazers who are so wrapped up in their gadgets they forgot to feel and then cry about it

A contestable statement.
90% of the manufactured world around us [things made by humans] existed as an idea or concept before it was made physically. So yes things can Preexist.
We definitely live in a moment of Just Now, but that is only the consciousness of a person, the unconscious mind exists as everything that could be as well as being.
Whats more we connect with reality mentally as well as physically. You cannot measure thoughts or ideas, they take up no physical space.
As We engage with reality on a mental level we see we are able to remember the past imagine the future or conceive of anything we can imagine with no resistance, at the level of Mind we are Masters.
We also see our state of mind has the biggest influence over How we choose to perceive our personal reality.
We can even conceive of things that will never be.
We draw on out previous experiences as a basis of comparison to our moment of Now and what our moment of Now could be in the future.
The Mind is the most powerful thing you will ever own.......it makes your reality real for you.........use it.
Imagine more.

A part of you already knows the answers.
The more you can control yourself the less control your environment has over you.

The thing to understand, though, that has practical significance on "the path" is that you don't have to look to see, or listen to hear, all functions occur independent of a known "I". "I see that" is a false statement; sight sees that, independent of an "I".
There is an UNKNOWN "I" or "eye", that is not in existence as we think of existence, it is unmanifest... It actually IS everything. At least that's sorta what my motto was getting at, and since the Goddess spoke to me and did tons of miracles for me to make my story a world changing, religion ending phenomenon...
"Reality is God, when you pretend or lie, you cease to exist you die".
So, not attempting to be eloquent or to make my words particularly efficient, but, since 99.5% of people "know" themselves as something that already exists, as a continuation of a story they have running in their head... It's important maybe for them to at least read that there is another reality, that their "identity" is fictional.

The "known" entity, based on a name and a story, this is fictional, a person is actually the universe itself.
If you know yourself as the universe, and experience yourself as such, then you're enlightened, but most people experience and recognize themselves as a named, known, and rather constrained entity.

And how many universes are there? How long has this been going on?
If each person is a universe, would not we be able to project into another co-universe for the purposes of growing greater universal bodies? And here we all are. Projected inside a universe.
