This is the concept and most likely comes down to perception and mind. For open keeps saying that all are too focused on 'matter' meaning the 3d physical stuff instead of the concepts pertaining to mind and thought. The core of who we are.

Contemplating these empty spaces on the website:
1234)* --- *(4321
When i'm scared and you're close I feel _. It's hard to feel _ nowadays. Can you find where to be _ ? Wait there, and you'll be _ .[....]
What if these spaces will never be filled? Or that they are meant to have multiple meanings, depending on the viewer. Now if Open were to fill these things in then he would be determining the outcome of thought of how to see reality...yet is it not 'all' thoughts incorporated that determine our reality?
He also wrote this behind the front page:
Your perception is what holds you back. This knowledge cannot be found from investigation of the material. You have GOT to allow a new way of thinking, even if briefly to understand any of it. The manuals are key here, without them, you're stuck in thought. More soon !
He has also here placed the word GOT in bold for it is stating something about the concept to which he is getting accross. In my opinion, no ONE has GOT to do anything...lol. So this is showing that in knowing that we are free thinking, we can determine our reality through 'Choice'. Therefore the spaces would be anything we desired...we can fill in the spaces ourselves. Each with a different perspective of life.
This is the concept I had originally thought Open might be wanting for us to see:
1234)* ONE *(4321
1234 = 10
4321 = 10
1010 takes you to the global consciousness page.
The mirror of 10 is 01...hence the concept of looking in the mirror...when you look in the mirror you see ONE.
You are the ONE who is love, safe, free, seen?
When i'm scared and you're close I feel SAFE. It's hard to feel LOVE nowadays. Can you find where to be FREE ? Wait there, and you'll be SEEN .[OPEN]
*******************************************************
However I can only 'presume' that is how Open might see it....and it would not be how I would want to answer it. I would write it this way:
When i'm scared and you're close I feel SAFE (in love). It's hard to feel FREE nowadays (without love). Can you find where to be OPEN (to love)? Wait there, and you'll be SEEN (through love). [LOVE]
The answer to all for me is LOVE...so even though I would view opens message, I would still on the other hand feel a different way than what the message might be portraying.
This is the concept and most likely comes down to perception and mind. For open keeps saying that all are too focused on 'matter' meaning the 3d physical stuff instead of the concepts pertaining to mind and thought. The core of who we are.

Great food for thought!
I agree about the expectation being the determining factor for the outcome of the box.
If the question underlies an expectation, then only not posing the question will not influence the outcome.
Now I am facing a paradox. On one hand, not asking the question at all, will take me to the Truth. On the other hand, without asking the question in the first place, I cannot be aware of the Truth. Or can I?
For example, it is the fundamental question of humanity "Who am I?", that makes the individual self-aware. Or, the other way around... a self-aware being cannot help but ask that question. Without posing that question, I won't be looking for Truth. Some questions must be asked. I guess the trick is in having no expectations as to what will unfold as a consequence of the question.
In the case of the cat, asking "Will the cat be alive", contains the answer within the question, and there is the flaw. Asking "What will happen when I open the box?" will leave all possibilities open. Then we can still have access to the Truth.
Without asking questions, Truth can be there, but there would be no awareness of it on our part.
You are a bright spark.
I've been down your path already. I've struggled with this exact same paradox. I've ridden Plato's chariots up beyond the horizon to the surface of the marble. You are on a good path; stay on it; you need to go down this path before reaching the choice I mentioned in option #2.
You absolutely must see the truth in all its infinite glory (ugliness and all) before you make the choice like Neo to come back down into the matrix again. Some earlier were giving veiled and not so veiled warnings and they were absolutely appropriate to give those warnings, but with you I sense very much so that you will see the Truth and will come back down to play on the winning side of the chess game. But every good player needs to first learn how to drive their chariot properly -- which I have every confidence you will quickly master., if you make that choice. Which you do not have to make.
2) Your second option is to deliberately focus your intension on what you would like to see. This is what we mean by embracing love and not fear. Those who think aliens are arriving any day now, or that Elenin will careen into the planet, or that the Illuminatis are plotting to take over the world... that's what they are going to get. 100 monkeys with highly focused intension can derail those particular trains and we can instead have the dawning of a new age of Aquarius (can you hear that song in your head now?).
As always there are two options. It's like Neo in the matrix. He took the pill and he was taking option 1 above -- he saw what was really real. But then he went back into the matrix, taking option 2, to free all the other prisoners.
I don't waste a lot of time on option #1. It's cool and all that, I'm not knocking it. But I've come back down into the matrix on purpose.

Thought preceeds action. So Mind preceeds that of Matter. Yet both are intrinsic to our creation. Mind is the core that we see from where all is determined, and matter is the interactive device to which we partake in creation.

Yes, yes yes BUT.. if you had an entire eternity to deal with, trust me, you'd get bored. No matter how amazing your world was, you'd explore it all into every inch nook and cranny... and then find yourself bored.
So what would you do with that boredom??? You'd create some excitement, some drama. You'd imagine.
Think of the zero as this infinite being trapped in a coma. The zero has explored all his memories over and over again. Everything he ever learned and trapped in his mind before the coma took over. What would such a trapped formless mind do?
IMAGINE. DREAM. CREATE. Including creating drama..... and plot lines.

Hi everyone, I have to admit I have never followed a forum thread so avidly, but something about this just captured me. The way you all have been working on this has really impressed me and I commend you all for your focus and drive to get to the heart of it!
I just wanted to mention something that I stumbled on tonight...or I should say this am ( 3:00 local time )
A few hundred pages back you were talking about the 2 most beautiful words being " cellar door " with a reference to Lord of the Rings if I recall it correctly? Anyway it's been bugging me and I don't know if maybe I missed a page or two and this has already been brought up...but after listening to Obama's speech on 9/11 and the Psalm he read from I went to read up on it ( mainly because it was such a surreal choice for the occasion ) and the original new testament psalm he read is punctuated at the end of each verse by " Selah " which I think means something similar to Amen. Hebrew for Mystical Light is " Ohr ". Selah Ohr......Cellar Door?
Anyway....after all this it lead me to a very strange site...
selahdohr.com...
Please check it out.....it's got me kind of rattled !!
Didn't intend to get this involved...was merely spectating, but thought I would share.
Peace

When i'm scared and you are close i feel OPEN. It's hard to feel OPEN nowadays. Can you find where to be OPEN? Wait there, and you'll be OPEN.
What is these manuals are the keys to becoming open, over coming the fear they create to the "new user", and what is the websites, quotes etc are that of people who have become OPEN?
What is OPEN is actually a group of others who have become OPEN, what if these OPEN people have felt this...When i'm scared and you are close i feel OPEN. It's hard to feel OPEN nowadays. Can you find where to be OPEN? Wait there, and you'll be OPEN.
