Birthdays

Did you know that at the exact time of your birth delivery you will experience the one single strongest heart palpitation of your year and this will continue on every birthday of your life?

That for two weeks before and two weeks after your emotions will be unstable.

That your life runs in cycles and that your birthday is the start and end of these personal cycles.
That children will often be ill on their birthdays.

Cakes and cards are all recent ideas.

Presents and parties are old ideas.

Enjoy your birthdays!

Guilt

Why do we get guilty feelings?

Why do so many find it difficult to relax?

Why do so many have the feeling that they ought to be doing this that or the other?

Stop it and let go of your guilt trip.

Realise that you are just feeding the machine.

In the West we have been programmed from an early age to feel guilty.

There is no original sin just the game of Christian churches.

No loving God ever set up the madness of modern religious teachings.

Step out, enjoy life without guilt.

Realise that if you do your best every day that is all that you can do.

Nature asks no more of us.

Put guilt away it's just your mind playing games.

Learn to let go of guilt.

Wanting

What do you want from me?

What do you want from anyone?

Wanting is not so neat as it results in frustration and disappointment, and usually more disappointment after a short time even if you do get whatever it was you wanted.

In fact the universe will give "wanters" wanting if you get what I mean.

Try another approach never want anything.

Be happy with what you have.

Where you lack something just decide to move in that direction.

If it comes to you then fine if not then also fine.

Waste no energy on disappointment and struggle.

Move smoothly through life happy with whatever you have.

Live effortlessly, no more wanting.

Every sense pervades every other, there being really
only one sense acting through different organs of sensation.

All senses are but differentiations of the one sense-consciousness.

Hence we can feel colours and we can see sounds.

There is no general order.

That sense which is most developed being the first for that person.

Good guy bad guy

The truth be known this is most of us.

We all have a good side and are happy when in that state.

The other side however is a different story.

We would call this state one where your entities dominate.

Made easy let's just say it's that "other you".

If the other you is very strong then we say the person is possessed.

When in that state help is difficult because so few truly know how to help.

Today we just fill people with pills to keep the demons at bay.

Most people have only spells of temper, out of control anger, depression or entity domination.

Lessening these further is important if you want to hold on to sanity, life, wife and job.

Modern society caters to this need by offering every imaginable outlet from violent to passive.

Sadly most only obscure.

They do not get to causes.

Without getting to causes the demons keep coming back.

The causes are reachable.

Learning control helps and this is more easily achieved once we identify those causes.

So start looking for those causes.

Hint they are your hidden fears.

Virtual vs illusion

At the moment it seems fashionable to call everything virtual, virtual reality, virtual business, virtual lives and so on.

Echos of Buddhism maybe where Buddhists and Hindus have said for thousands of years that all is illusion.

Or is it confusion?

Virtual and illusion what is the difference between the two?

Virtual is a painstaking collection of man made environments, where with the aid of computer technology one can pass time either alone or collectively for pleasure or work.

Illusion in the Buddhist sense is a world that is not as it seems to our senses, it is one of depth and subtlety, our world.

The virtual world is the creation of human minds.

Our world of illusion is the creation of man's limited understanding of nature.

The virtual world can lead to addiction and eye strain while understanding the world of illusion can lead to peace of mind.

It does not have to be either or, add understanding of both for a healthier life.

Try to go beyond illusion and treat virtual with care.

The Bible

The whole of the New Testament is an allegorical representation of the Cycle of Initiation, i.e., the natural birth of man in sin or flesh, and of his second or spiritual birth as an Initiate followed by his resurrection after three days of trance.

– A mode of purification – during which time his human body or astral was in Hades or hell, which is the earth, and his divine ego in heaven or the realm of truth.

The New Testament describes unselfish white or divine *magic.

The Old Testament gives the description of black, or selfish magic.

The latter is psych ism, the former all spirituality.

G.R.S. Mead

*Magic is an old Persian term meaning knowledge

More on thoughts

Thoughts come along all day long.

They come out of nowhere and then they go back to nowhere.

Thoughts are not personal.

Thoughts if met with questions can be interesting.

Thoughts met without question can lead to big problems.

They can assume an illusory validity.

They can come to dominate you and distort your thinking.

Do not believe your thoughts without checking the truth in them.

Happiness

"Those only are happy who have their minds fixed on some object other than their own happiness.

On the happiness of others, on the improvement of mankind, even on some art or pursuit.

Followed not as a means, but as itself an ideal end.

Aiming thus at something else, they find happiness by the way".

So says John Stuart Mills and we would agree that happiness cannot be ordained nor can it be commanded.

Indeed it might be best to add that living in the present moment coupled to his ideas offers the best chance of arriving at happiness.

Happiness after all is an emotion and does not take kindly to being commanded.

Approach happiness from a tangent.

The fact is that the human brain is simply the canal between two planes

– the psycho spiritual and the material –

through which every abstract and metaphysical idea filters from the Manasic down to the lower human consciousness.

Therefore the ideas about the infinite and the absolute are, not nor can they be, within our brain capacities.

They can be faithfully mirrored only by our Spiritual consciousness, then to be more or less faintly projected onto the tables of our perceptions on this plane.

Thus while the records of even important events are often obliterated from our memories, not the smallest action of our lives can disappear from the “Souls” memory, because it is no memory for it, but an ever present reality on the plane which lies outside our conceptions of space and time.
