Who you are is from before time was. Time is a concept, made to measure and therefore “give reality” to man’s existence within an illusion. Matter is held together by thought, and the belief in (and the need for) a bodily identity.

Mind cannot die. Mind is eternal and is beyond the realm of time and space. When awareness of self has expanded beyond a limited bodily identity, time and space are literally in the hands of the miracle worker.

When Lucy finds herself caught up in a drug trafficking nightmare, it appears to be the worst situation imaginable. A packet of drugs are surgically implanted in her stomach and when they begin to leak, she experiences a transformation of consciousness that takes her all the way to total transcendence from human consciousness to pure awareness.

Lucy is portrayed as the first woman and the last woman in this movie. She’s a powerful symbol of taking the leap toward the inevitable. Jesus says that the word inevitable is wonderful to the Spirit and frightening to the ego. In the end, the inevitable is light, is joy, is happiness. To delay the leap is to delay the inevitable. Anytime we suffer pain, depression or frustration it’s because we value those experiences more than the inevitable.

Everything is flipped in this world so to the ego taking the leap is opening to the big unknown and the ego is saying, “Are you sure you want to let go of that and that and that for the unknown?” The ego makes it sound like a risky trade. And yet what is unknown to the ego is the only experience that’s knowable. Who you are is all you can ever know.

We’re being asked to let go of the temporary for the inevitability of Spirit; to give up fear for love. Lucy knows her awakening is inevitable, but she still has to follow. She has to go through scene after scene, which is what the journey seems to be; we have to face some scenes in our lives before they disappear.

The implications of Lucy are staggering. Within historical terms, we have history, and the human condition is all that seems to be known. Then two thousand years ago Jesus makes an appearance and symbolically that’s a manifestation of the Holy Spirit. That was one of the first demonstrations since the big bang that love was real and the cosmos was not. There was no contrast experience before the enlightened ones. It seemed that time and space were real.

Lucy provides the same demonstration of light in a compressed and direct way. When you watch Lucy you have a baseline in modern day terms to start to look at what’s going on in your mind. Lucy is a demonstration of the power of mind, the reality of light and the unreality of fear, guilt, pain, shame and linear time. What purpose would it serve to delay this purification, this letting go, if it’s known that awakening is inevitable?
