Wet


When it rains everything changes.

Doesn't really matter if you are in Singapore or Europe.

Wet changes things.

Do you let your mood change too?


Funny how we let outside influences change us.

Notice how many outside influences change your mood.

Become your own master.

Do not be slave to outside influences.

Be your own master!

Cultures


Cultures are so different people say.

Yes they are.

And thank goodness that they are, who needs a monocultural world?

Much as corportations would like us all the same.

Cultures make the world a more interesting place.

Support the preservation of difference.

Support cultural diversification.

Help preserve your own culture!

Sometimes


We just need to cry.

Yes all of us men and women alike we need to cry sometimes.

Our systems get blocked up.

We internalise.

We control our emotions.

We stifle our feelings.

Cry!.

When that enough feeling overwhelms you let go!

Sometimes we just need to cry.

Impulse


Sometimes we act upon impulse and sometimes not.

If we could trust ourselves more then letting impulses guide us would often be the be smart thing to do.

Why?

Because impulses come from the heart and are often more accurate than our minds.


Our minds are so often filled with doubt and precedent that they produce seriously flawed decisions.


A caution though we are not talking about impulses to eat more chocolate or drink too much.


The impulses we are talking about are those that just arrive and seem right.

Those where we need to make a choice or decision.

So where you can let impulses guide you

Total frustration


Ever tried to contact some company where they deliberately make contact difficult if not impossible?

Instead of getting frustrated report or engage them where you can.

Where you cannot cut your losses and move on.

Tell your friends,warn them.

Publicise this behaviour where you can.

Do not let their behaviour get you unbalanced.

All of us will have these experiences.

It's our modern world.

Learn to keep your equanimity.

Do not let yourself experience total frustration.

There are plenty of unethical companies around.

Let them be, take your business elswhere.

Tiredness


Tiredness often gets us into trouble.

Become conscious of your behaviour when tired.

How does it manifest for you?

Do you snap, snarl, sulk what do you do?

Become conscious of how you behave because for sure we all have negative emotions when we are tired.

Admitting this is the first step.

The second is to understand why you react as you do.

Be very careful of yourself when tired.


Tired can cause so many problems.

Learn to control your negative behaviour when tired because we all go there!
Be nice to yourself and others when tired please!

Just so you know


Most of the worlds pyramids were built to symbolize the creative principles of nature.

Those illustrated above at Giza are over eighty thousand years old, not a few thousand years old as stated by Egyptologists today.

Pyramids also illustrate the principles of geometry, mathematics, astrology and astronomy.

Internally the pyramid was a majestic temple, in whose sombre recesses were performed the Mysteries.

Whose walls had often witnessed the initiation-scenes of members of the royal family.

The porphyry sarcophagus was the baptismal font.

Upon emerging from which, the neophyte was "born again" and became an adept.

H.P.B.

In fear


Nothing affects us more than our fears.

Fear affects all our decisions

Fear changes our health on all levels physical, mental, and emotional.

Fear influences our enjoyment of life.

If this is true then how come we all ignore or accept living in our fears?

Particularly if fear does so much damage?

Is it because we are frightened that things will be worse if we move or disturb the status quo?

Sad fact is that this fear of the unknown feeds on itself and makes things worse over time.

For many this is reality just hoping that things will not get worse.

Today nature will no longer accept this.

All of us are being obliged to look at our fears.

We live in times where none of us may say nay to change.

Change is nature's way of obliging us to take action.

Fear is only possible where we use our minds thinking about those things that frighten us.

Two courses of action then.

Learn to stop endlessly thinking about the things that worry us.

Secondly remove the cause, and for this second step most need help.

Get in touch.

Achieving women


That women are the stronger sex by most criteria is not in doubt.

Or is it?

Until women also do those things that men traditionally do well it seems that many men are unable to accept that women are the stronger sex.

How nice then that women are now challenging in more and more arenas, if for no other reason than to extinguish some old male myths.

Time to get real and acknowledge that both sexes can benefit from each other.

Enough of silly chauvinism on either side.

Time to learn from each other.

After all we do have equal and opposite strengths.

Ever thought about that?

Killing


Killing is not "collateral damage".

Killing is killing.

Taking another life is killing.

So much killing going on.

Usually it's over there

Which makes it TV images.

Something to watch after work.

Killing is something that people do for money, revenge, under orders.

Killing is no way to solve anything.

Time we said so.

We do not care who you are, killing must stop.

Say so.

Emerging woman




Not everywhere unfortunately.

Certainly though in most places in the Western world.

She is more financially independent.

Less interested in compromise in her private life.

Looking for a sensitive man, note sensitive not wimpy.

Is travelling more.

Doing things on her own.

Involved in activities that interest her.

Learning to let go of mummy.

Becoming more involved in addressing personal and collective issues of concern to her.

Prepared to look at her fears.

Moving into the unknown in her consciousness evolution.

Becoming the emerging woman.

Is this you?

Is this your woman?

Mmmmm - 31


Like Orpheus, Pythagoras, Buddha, Confucius ,Appolonius of Tyana, Socrates, and Jesus himself Ammonius Saccas, nor any other teacher or initiate has ever committed anything to writing for public use.

Instead he communicated his most important doctrines to persons duly instructed and disciplined.

Imposing upon them obligations of secrecy, as was done before him by Zoroaster and Pythagoras, and in the mysteries.

Except few treatises of his disciples, we have only the declarations of his adversaries from which to ascertain what he actually taught.

Treat with caution those who claim to know, because if they did then never would this be allowed in writing or in the public domain.

Light in my eyes


The light in my eyes lights the lives of others.

When I am up and happy that is.

Without being aware our eyes say so much about us.

If our eyes are troubled.

If our eyes are downcast.

If we are tired and sad our eyes say it all.

Learn to read eyes.

Learn to relax your own.

Be the light in my eyes.

Deep sadness


Does so much harm.

It does so much harm that is if you stay in deep sadness.

If you live in the past feeling sad for whoever you miss.

Constantly thinking about them.

Constantly talking about them.

Our life is not about living in the past.

Life is about operating in the here and now.

Nothing is gained from endless reference to something in the past.

The only reason to look in the past is to learn and having done so let it go.

Deep sadness after a suitable period of mourning is a form of sickness.

An excuse to avoid being here now.

A story where you can excuse not facing life.

Avoiding moving on with life now.

It is certainly not about those who have gone.

Deep sadness is not a viable life strategy .

Let deep sadness go, it's gone.

Fast time


Freeflyers are used to working in fast time.

What is fast time?

A space where everything is in a higher compression of experience.

Seconds become much longer.

You do many more things in the same space of time.

When you come down from fast time everything is in slow motion.

As are you, you feel relaxed at ease with yourself.

Every normal activity is really slow and easy.

Try experiencing some fast time.

Friday, September 15, 2006

Slow time


Time has different speeds.

In prison it is known as slow time.

In car racing or squash it is fast time.

In youth it is slow time.

In middle age fast time.

In old age no time.

So?

You can change time.

Where you put your mind is where you find your time.

Where is your mind?

In fact do you even think to control your mind?

Control your mind and you can control time.

Or does it control you?

Time to find out.

Because it's your time!

Cats


Do not sleep with cats in your bedroom.

Why not?

Simply stated cats have an energy profile that can be used by other less friendly energies.

Cats are very sensitive to their owners health and will often know that their owner is ill before anyone else.

This sensitivity has two sides and is available for use by those who know how.

So no cats in the bedroom is a good idea.

News


Is news good for you?

Not if it is consistently negative it isn't.

Does it really help you to know that somebody murdered somebody

Does it really help you to know that there was another disaster.

Does it really help you to know that so and so met or talked with so and so?

Answer, no it does not help you.

Then why watch, listen and disturb yourself?

You will miss nothing and you can believe that if it is bad or serious enough then someone is sure to tell you.

Try going without news for a month.

It's really nice focusing on the positive.

Try it!

Mmmmm - 30



Great scholarship does not preclude bias
and prejudice.

Nor is it a safeguard against self-conceit.

Rather the reverse.

Grumbles

We all grumble in our own way.

Do you admit this?

Are you conscious when you grumble?

Do you argue and fight?

Do you sulk?

How do you get out of this state?

Try letting go of your grumble.

Just let it go.

Stop it. move on find something positive about something else.

Pronounce it say it, something positive.

Let your grumble go.

Grumbles are bad for your health.............and those around you!

Understand you are less than perfect.

Learn your grumbles.

Be honest.

Beauty and women


Do you feed the beauty business following each and every fashion?

Men do not.

Well most anyway.

It does not make a man any more or less masculine if he is tall or short, thin or fat.

Not every woman can look like an anorexic model

Why would she want to anyway?

Beauty, true beauty is inside you.

It pushes out so that we are all aware of that beauty.

Let true beauty be your guide not some anorexic model.

Beauty is beauty whatever your shape.

Manners


Many of us still notice manners.

Some of the more quaint are dropping away.

Others which show respect are still a gauge of someones education and awareness.

More to the point they show us how self-preoccupied someone is.

As a rule of thumb if someone is selfishly preoccupied then do not expect much in the way of support or consideration from them.

Their world is themselves so leave them alone.

Let selfish people be.

People without manners are not easy to be with.

Let them be.

Friday, September 08, 2006

Emerging man


The old image of a "real man" looks pretty sad.

All muscles and macho violence.

Often selfish and insensitive.

Emerging man looks a bit better.

A man who is secure in his masculinity.

Prepared to learn about his femininity

To listen to his feelings

To learn from his partner.

Has morals and ethics.

Is finding his way into this emerging paradigm of new possibilities.

Is interested in sharing and caring.

Will work and compromise to help make things work.

Where are you?

Where is your man?

Thursday, September 07, 2006

This moment now


Not yesterday.

Not tomorrow.

Just this moment now.

This is the only reality, nothing else is reality.

Backwards is history, it has already gone.

Forwards is illusion, speculation.

Live in this moment now.

Learn to be in the moment.

Hold your mind to this moment.

Easy to say so hard to do.

Follow the hard way

It's really the easy way over a lifetime.

Mmmmm - 29

Reincarnation means that the Ego will be
furnished with a new body, a new brain, and a new memory.

Therefore, it would be . . . absurd to expect this memory to remember that which it has never recorded . . .

The personality with it's Skandhas is ever changing with every new birth.

It is . . . only the part played by the actor (the true Ego) for one night.

This is why we preserve no memory on the physical plane of our past lives, though the real "Ego" has lived them over and knows them all.' (Key 128, 131)

Car - cycle - walk
























Most people today travel in cars insulated from the road and noise outside.

Motorbikes are different you are part of nature, very much more aware as often the greatest danger to your wellbeing comes from dozy car users.

Cycling also is more in touch with nature, albeit with energy expenditure and again a mindful eye on car users.

Walking is so very different here you can smell the flowers, notice local things, little things even have time to linger

Do you walk?

It's not just about exercise.

It takes us into another world.

A world of humans doing human things.

More on selfish

Can only see the cost of things to self.

In fact knows the price of everything.

Knows the value of nothing.

Including any relationship with you.

Life rotates around self.

Nothing else exists, just self.

Give this person a surprise leave her or him alone.

Let them get on with being the centre of their lives.

Just leave them alone.

Do not be the pawn of selfish people.

Stop being used by the selfish people you know.

When the mask slips


In early middle age something interesting happens.

Suddenly many people look mean and ugly.

What happened?

They no longer have enough energy to smile and also hide the anger and degradation inside.

The energy that they had to conduct life and to present a smiley image to the world deserted them.

There is now only enough energy for one or the other and nature decided that running the system is more important than smiley make believe.

Suddenly the world sees how you really are.

Notice how many ugly and mean people there are in middle age?

Moral to this sad tale?

Smile not because it is some game you play.

Smiling is to express pleasure, a love of life.

Not just a game of make believe.

Be real, be true or when your mask slips as it surely must you will be just another mean old person!

Living with lies


Anyone listening to pronouncements by government spokesmen about any recent situation has to wonder about the truth of what they are being told.

Is it more lies?

Is it partial lies?

Is it partial truth?

We will never know.

What we do know though is that governments repeatedly lie to us.

That there are precious few morals and ethics in politics.

This being the case form your own opinion based on moral and ethical logic.

You are responsible for your own understanding of any given situation.

Form your own opinions.

The more humans have moral and ethical clarity the more able we are to know our position on any given issue.

The more we are clear ourselves the more governments can be put on notice that we are tired of their hypocrisy and lies.

They may live with lies, we do not have to.

Lies are not acceptable.

Do not accept lies.

Sad people


Notice how many women need to wear flashy clothing and draw attention to themselves, beyond the norm that is.

Certainly some are "ladies of the night".

Others are those creatures who desperately need attention.

Who almost shout "look at me".

If a man does then she greats his attention with arrogant disdain.

What is her game?

All on the surface

Looks are all.

Material possessions the goal.

Nothing else, sadly there is nothing inside.

Just tinsel wrappings on the outside, emptiness inside.

Question why does the world pay attention to such empty people?

Could it be that we are living in the last days of Rome?

Are our lives so empty that we care about what these empty people say do or buy?

Apparently for many the answer is yes.

And you do you care about what they say think or do?
