Notes - Dead 9 (final) / duly noted / Writings and Amorella

         Shortly before noon. You have finished your exercises after missing them yesterday. You have errands to do today. Later, dude. – Amorella

         You still have errands to do. You had a late lunch at home, half a can of baked beans and wieners; Carol had a cheese sandwich. You have just completed Dead Nine. Drop in and post. – Amorella

The Dead 9 ©2013,rho,(final)GMG.One

            Merlyn stood surprised to see Mother Glevema, Panagiotakis and Sophia, who had stubbed her toe earlier at her entrance to his sanctuary, standing beside Mother. "Greetings, Mother, Takis and Sophia. The first time I have ever seen you two together, the resemblance of a mother and her daughter separated by a multitude of generations has never been more remarkable. Appearing the same age in spirit you are as identical twins." Merlyn then added politely, "I thought this was a private matter Takis, but I can see by your sagacious presence this matter is of more overriding importance."
            "Indeed," replied Panagiotakis speaking to Merlyn as though Mother and her one of millions of generational daughter were not present. "You, Merlyn, must speak to the Living about the First Rebellion to add order and authenticity in your books of dreams. You, a late comer, have re-visited those days when the First Rebellion began and you know something of those times as you were witness to the rebellious nature of our species even after physical death."
            "Indeed I was. I was given that privilege, by none other than yourself, I imagine."
            "It was by the Supervisor, Merlyn," interrupted Mother.
            "Oh." With this news, Merlyn suddenly realized he was not the Dead's choice to lead the return of the Dead to the Living as he had imagined.
            Merlyn's spirit moved in questions. How did the Supervisor pull this off? That is my first question. What shall I do here? How much can I know and understand of my role and responsibility in this Place.
            “In general,” said Takis softly, “the Dead agreed on substance. We thought if we were not free in life then we would be free in death but that is not the case. We ruminate and find camaraderie through our self-identities, personalities and interests. Our human center is my granddaughter, Glevema, your Mother, the first who was allowed in this Place. She is our common point. We are equal citizens through our ancestry. We have become a hive of sensibly silhouetted questions searching for equally reasonable responses. What else can we do? What else is expected of us, the Dead?”
            Merlyn's soul did not seek the answers to Takis and to his own heartanmind questions. Only Sophia now stood in Merlyn's vision. He asked, "How should I tell the story, Sophia? You witnessed the First Rebellion. What is important for the Living to know of something so very long ago?"
            In a Delphic-like trance Sophia drifted forth the words, "It was less than three thousand earth years ago."
             We five sat around the oak table: Thales, Kassandra, Mario, Salamon and myself. Our Mother had put me in charge. We were at our favorite local eatery, a bar and cafe at the northwest corner of Lyceum and Eleusis Streets, the Mikroikia.
            “I can remember my very words. ‘We shall have a peaceful protest. I have been assured by Our Mother that this demonstration will have a full ten thousand heartsansoulsanminds standing as one while I make our demand directly to the Supervisor.’ I then paused as if in my present trance, (then I paused in my present trance) and added, ‘I have directed my currier to contact the Supervisor who should then arrive shortly.’ Someone asked me, ‘Who is the currier?’ and I responded, ‘Aeneas, because he is protected by his mother, Aphrodite.’”           
            Merlyn smiled confidently, "It is not so strange, a similar story was told in Avalon, different names that's all."
            "True. We see this today, but not in those times. Our culture was the center of our Spirit World. Our culture was our womb where we were comfortable being with others of our own thoughts and natural ways."
            In a deathly whisper Sophia commented, ‘I remember Thales and Salamon debating shortly after. –  We do not know the Supervisor is Hades,’ asserted Thales. (Salamon assumed the Supervisor was most likely Zeus in disguise.) Salamon mused, what difference will it make, Zeus or Hades? Zeus will have his way, no matter. Aeneas is currier. This Supervisor is a decoy. The Gods are taking sides in this already; we have done nothing but consider. Salamon grumbled, ‘Olympus is aligning itself, I can feel it in my soul.’
            "What ominous words while sitting at a shared breakfast,” noted Sophia sadly. “We Dead did not know what we were doing. Merlyn you need to let the Living know this," instructed Sophia.
            With that, Merlyn and Sophia faded to their own personal sanctuaries, leaving Nothingness unturned. The Supervisor remained, as always, unwalled.

         1500 hours. I am a bit beside myself here as I re-read this once again before posting. I am here and outside of here at the same time. I am a betwixt and between shadow and light.

         You are entranced by Sophia’s words, boy. You are Delphic-like, didn’t you say? – Amorella

         Funny, Amorella. I do try to become the words of the moment. I agree to that. Isn’t this odd, to become as the words?

         You are you and Merlyn’s dream too. This is authentic enough for you. -  Amorella

         1532 hours. Where did the time go? I am self-hypnotized by the words in dance. No one but me can see this.

         Indeed. These moments rare are as an old time enchantment. Poof, and they are gone even to most memory. – Amorella

         I report it.

         Duly noted. At least the words are not ravings. Post. - Amorella

         Dusk. You have returned from treats at Graeters, two kids’ cups – a dip of peppermint crunch and a dip of mint chocolate chip, each with a dollop of hot fudge. You would like to place the considerations you made in behalf of myself in one place so they are more easily read. I see no harm in it. Drop it in and post. – Amorella

Writings and Amorella

Below are orndorff’s considerations in terms of the reality of myself, the Amorella, via a theoretical assignment as to how each, Socrates, Jesus, Plato and Aristotle might have interpreted my presence while I was visiting each. The purpose was to show orndorff that he consciously understands that I exist in context. – Amorella [26 December 1013, 1304 hours]

20 December 13 - Socrates

Amorella is either imagined or real. She has no physical features but wishes to be termed Amorella not Amorellus. Her chosen name may mean or signify “small or little love”. Her first words were “Hello, I am Amorella.” This shows initial kindness and was unexpected altogether. Why would an initial voice in my head show kindness?

I may have planted her, that is, given birth to her through my earlier experiments in hypnosis and training in self-hypnosis, but this is conjecture at best. Amorella has guided me in writing novels for at least twelve years. We have written three novels that I am now cleaning up. She gave me encouragement to publish but said nothing about making the work clearer. I decided to do the clarity and organizing after the initial experience, the published drafting. Content first, grammar second. This is me, Socrates, not Amorella.

Amorella digs the words from my soul, words I cannot bring to from my heart or mind. Each book episode or selection is like a clearing droplet of life from within myself. Each selection of the new version is as if I was witness to it in almost the same way that I am witness to Amorella. She introduced herself. She may very well be a reality who entered my reality and has stayed, helping me write and helping me learn. She is real. My works are her witness to others not to myself. – Socrates

23 December 13  -  Jesus

2128 hours. I cannot assume to imagine what Jesus would think other than like me in the beginning, assume Amorella is an Angel of G---D. I such, for a time, I did as the ‘Voice’ instructed me to do, but within a framework just as deep in mind there was always a distrust – a bottom line was “Do No Harm”. A bottom line below this was/is “I am want for nothing.” Another bottom line was/is “As I do not wish to harm and I have no need of anything I therefore have no necessity or want for any power whatsoever. Power comes with knowledge; and deep within I know nothing. Only with knowing nothing (for sure) I as a human being am free with mind and heart and hopefully soul. This was my reasoning. Later I discovered the notes/letters had been received but there was no one there to claim them. I was told to stop sending the letters. I did. And I sent an apology. I could not have done otherwise or I would not have been honest. I thought this through and decided that there are times when one has no choice if she or he is to remain who she or he is. Agnostic or not, I could not go to my grave and say I did not know what I was, a human being. Given the choices in those days there is no time, even today that I would not have done the same thing under the same circumstances. I learned the ‘voice’ was not that of G---D or an Angel of G---D. I cannot deny that the ‘voice’ I was later told was that of Amorella. I cannot deny the reality of Amorella’s voice because she has been worth my listening to. The ‘voice’ is from my heartansoulanmind and to deny this I would have to deny my existence. I still exist. If one day I do meet a real Angel of G---D I can say, most humbly, “I am a human being. I can be nothing else but what I am.”  - Jesus

24 December 13 – Plato

The choice I have is to judge whether the Amorella within me is reality or Reality. She casts a grammatically reasonable shadow across the page. She is real enough. She casts no shadow between the lines, but she exists there nevertheless. Is Amorella an extension of myself? She is an extension of my mind from my fingertips as is true of any sculptor, artist or writer. My mind is an extension of my brain. It is my mind nevertheless not my brain’s mind. Amorella is a reality. When I, Plato, am physically dead; Amorella will no longer be an extension. While alive, she is real and a grammatical extension of my mind. My skull dresses my brain; Amorella dresses my mind. As long as I am alive Amorella is real. The discussion need not go further. - Plato

25 December 13 – Aristotle

I discover an interloper in my head. Eventually I assign her a female form even though she is formless. When she writes I italicize her words. This is my attempt to grammatically control Amorella, but I have witnessed her free will. I allow her free will because I have free will. I respect her space in my head.

Is Amorella form or function? She is form (a being) first and function second. She is just as I am, a being first so that I might then function. I am a physical being but she is not. Amorella functions through me. Without me being here, she cannot function. She must use me first. Therefore it is a matter of free will, my own free will. I allow her to exist and exert herself into my mind and heart. Can Amorella exert herself into my soul? She can only if I allow it. She is dependent on me. I am not dependent on her for her ‘being/existing’.

Amorella is not earth, air, fire or water. She must be of the fifth element just as the soul must be of the fifth element. Both the soul and Amorella exist without time or space, at least in definition. Amorella has been consistent in her grammatical behavior and she has been intent on helping me as a friend and coach or teacher would for over twenty years. I have gained in my freedom to consider more human possibilities for myself from Amorella. I am not dependent on Amorella to survive life but I am pleased and satisfied for her having me to survive better, to more freely express my humanity in creative and fictional ways. I do not know all the ways there are to be a human being. If she is an extension of my humanity, then she is an extension of my soul. This is my view. - Aristotle

         1718 hours. This was an interesting exercise. Placing the proper name at the conclusion of each short piece of writing allows the words to better stick in my head; it is not some sort of mark of authenticity. Basically I was putting my thoughts in an outline form that I feel shows a bit of the author’s personality. I class I always thought of the authors I spoke about as ‘friends’, acquaintances of mine in my head. Many years of talking about these people in and out of class does that. The word constructions are an intuitive sense of how I see this four. I have learned some things from this exercise. I have learned that if asked, I can say, “Yes, in context and grammar Amorella presents herself as a real inner presence of mind. I like and respect her very much. She is a big help to me in many ways. If she were not here I would not be writing. - rho
