    Wandering in Wimbledon:
    Exploring The Village And Tennis Championships

    Joolz Guides


    There's a lot more to Wimbledon than the tennis. I couldn't believe what an absolutely stunning place it is. Just head into the village and you are surrounded by parks and history. Oliver Reed has a big connection with the area and you can even do the Oliver reed pub crawl but there is also a wonderful stables from the 19th century and lots of places to hang out.

    Of course we had to visit the tennis championships too at the All England Club for Pimms and strawberries with cream, but we also went to the place where it all started.

    There's a windmill and a Thai Bhuddist temple too!
    We had a lovely day out!

    A couple notes I have as I briefly listened to some parts of the full interview of Jason Jorjani, with whom I'm not familiar with...

    I don't think time travel is possible, not in the sense we would think of it anyways. Also secondly I find it interesting that in his NDE Jason saw his own death during the next civil war in USA and he said he wasn't an old man when that happened? Yet he doesn't want to believe in determinism, he wants to believe in "real" free will and somehow he concluded that God with capital G wouldn't fit into that equation, which is in my mind nonsensical. All there is One Being, that would be God's Being. It, whatever you may want to call It, has separated itself into seemingly many things to see and experience itself. When you see beauty anywhere, such as in nature then you are seeing the manifestation or language of the Divine, it is something that is supposed to touch the innermost core of your soul.

    As the Sufi's in mystical Islam say, this is what that Infinite Consciousness said; "I was a Hidden Treasure; I loved to be known, so I created the creation in order to be known."

    Make of that what you will, but I believe that currently humans for the most part don't have real free will. There is the divine will, but individuals have the illusion of free will. That being said, I don't think we are just mere automatons either. We do have some autonomy to make choices, because without choices good nor bad would not exist and in this universe different polarities and duality exist, you can't have the other without the other, the contrast is there for a reason. Without choices there would be no point to any of this.

    As C.S. Lewis said;

    "If a thing is free to be good it is also free to be bad. And free will is what has made evil possible. Why, then, did God give them free will? Because free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only thing that makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having. A world of automata--of creatures that worked like machines--would hardly be worth creating. The happiness which God designs for His higher creatures is the happiness of being freely, voluntarily united to Him and to each other in an ecstasy of love and delight compared with which the most rapturous love between a man and a woman on this earth is mere milk and water. And for that they must be free."

    In religious lore as the Islamic one Angels are very close to God, but they have not been given free will so they are not really free beings even if they are high up there in the divine realms. According to Islam Iblis was once an angel who refused to bow down to the first created man, Adam Kadmon and he was cast from up high to lower astral realms and ever since that being or force has been the tempter and tormentor of people. Humans on the other hand have been given "free will", djinn and other beings have been also given it, at least to some degree. We are bound by certain laws of the universe, but we still have the individual sense and will to do as we will. We can be aligned to the divine will or go into another direction, yet eventually all roads lead to Rome. If you are not allowed to be you, then why would you even exist in the first place?

    Real love can only exist when you allow the "other" to be themselves as they are and you love them for what they are, not trying to impose your will nor trying to own or change them to suit your needs. Love is the absence of subject and object, it is the absence of two separate beings and that's the very basis of unity and oneness. There is only one Being and love recognizes this very fact.

    "Love is not a feeling. Love is the experience that others are not others.
    Love is the natural condition of all experience before thought has divided it into a multiplicity and diversity of objects, selves and others.

    We consider love to be a relationship. We consider love to be a feeling that takes place between two people. Love is not a relationship. It is the collapse of relationship. In the experience of love, the self and the other dissolve. Love is the dissolution of the apparent separation between self and other, and a revelation of the prior unity of these two apparently separate selves. So love is not an experience that the separate self has. It is the dissolution of the separate self, the revelation of reality, the revelation of consciousness. Consciousness is love."
    ~ Rupert Spira

    "Every being is a spark of the Divine or God. Look into the eyes of the dog and sense that innermost core." ~ Eckhart Tolle
