In the new movie “Avatar,” James Cameron has a language created for the native people, the Na’vi (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Na’vi_language). One of the most interesting lines from the movie in Na’vi was “Oel ngati kameie” loosely translated ”I See you.” But also explained that it means more than seeing you on a physical level, seeing “all” of you.
The saying reminded me of one of my other favorite words, Namaste. According to Wikipedia, it is “one of the few Sanskrit words commonly recognized by Non-Hindi speakers.” Wikipedia lists several attempts to translate the full meaning of Namaste.
- “I honor the Spirit in you which is also in me.” …
- “I salute the God within you.”
- “Your spirit and my spirit are ONE.” …
- “That which is of God in me greets that which is of God in you.”
- “The Divinity within me perceives and adores the Divinity within you.”
- “All that is best and highest in me greets/salutes all that is best and highest in you.”
- “I greet the God within.”
This meshes with my belief that we are energy beings living in physical bodies. At the conclusion of our lives, we return to the energy form.
The extension is that this energy form, a higher consciousness exists during our lives, and we can possibly learn to connect to this other intelligence. Using logic, the way to connect to a non-physical intelligence is probably different than using our five physical senses. If one developed their sixth sense, and then turned this sense inward, what might happen?
