There's a correlation between the strength of the thought and its physical manifestation. You could strongly attract something by focusing on the sensation of its manifestation intensely, or by holding the thought for an extended period of time. So maybe a tiny little one-off thought does almost nothing to move you in the direction of what you wish to experience. But an intense one-off does a bit. And an intense, focused and held thought or thoughts propel you towards it!
If you really think about it, (hah!) even mundane "everyday" thoughts, idle thoughts while commuting, or opinions thought to yourself, will move you in a certain direction. And if you're moving in any direction, you're having an impact on someone else, no matter how slight or twisted through time. Actually, I don't think you can be born onto this planet and not affect anyone else lol!
As for private thoughts and actions... well, many channeled messages, including Ra and Q'uo, say that you are never once alone in the creation. You always have your guides with you. So you can't say there's a such thing as a private action in that regard. When it comes to thought, the multidimensional aspects of yourself are always aware of your thought. For example, you could say that the earth, or Gaia, is always conscious of us. Our thoughts make up her sentience. So in that sense, the collective consciousness is always aware of what you're putting into it. I don't think that in a system where all thinking beings are part of one Creator, that there can be an unregistered or unanswered signal, or unheard thought in other words.

A connection to every other thing that exists. This is profound and beautiful, but is the downside the eradication of what we understand to be privacy?
Privacy is only a concern in a places/times where there is some sort of fear... In places/times where thoughts are transparent, there is no fear. (Like 4D+ and so on) No fear = no need for privacy.
About the UFC match, I gather that you don't enjoy watching it for the violence. So, in a metaphysical way, you're not watching violence at all. You're enjoying a thought-form. And the thought-form that you interpret from the 3D event is a lot more refined. The basic elements of it that you resonate the most with are being amplified, while the others are being balanced in a unique way. I agree completely with unity100 when he says: "you are participating in it in whatever form..." Brilliantly worded, unity.
It has to do with what you relate the event with. This is what Buddhism teaches, bringing subconscious thought processes to conscious light. If you equate pornography with oppression of the female, all pornography will be that to you, and you will participate in that when you watch it like that.Richard Wrote:Perfect sense, Shemaya
Well, from your character's perspective, what they're doing is the right path for them in their virtual spiritual development hahahaha. So can you enjoy the whole game as a sort of play to watch and gain experience through? (Cuz when you're playing, you're the co-Creator!) Or does the character mirror what's bad in you, and therefore you feel dirty?
Actually, speaking of plays...

Books came first, then plays, then movies, then video games... But "on the other side", they're all the same thing. Thought-forms? (might not be an entirely accurate word to ascribe to it) Either way, it's something with characters that plays out on the mental stage. Are you identified with it or are you an observer? I don't think you can co-create if you're identified with the media.

Do you think that's true for anyone at any level of consciousness? What if the PvPer views it as a play to observe and create simultaneously? Or at a lower level, a sport to compete in? Or a lower level, an experience had by a part of the ego? I think what you say holds true for the ego level, and possibly a small amount on the sport level.
