What has intelligence to do with the sex of the body?

Where the sexual instincts end,

there ends the influence of the sex.

Flu

It's that time of year and we had the misfortune to fly recently from Paris with a coughing spluttering fellow passenger.

A few days later we both went down with a horrible flu, headache, achy limbs, fever, sore throat, it felt horrible.

So just for the record we do not catch flu it attacks us because our immune systems are weak.

In our case we had overdone things in Paris, working long hours and then giving talks every night. Result weakened immune systems vulnerable to nasty flu.

So for the winter where we can all expect more nasty flu bugs build up your immune systems.

Eat well, exercise and most important of all let go of your fears.

Yes, fear or stress is very very debilitating so of all the things you can do to protect yourself from flu funnily enough letting go of fear must be number one.

Might sound funny but it works so let go of your fears.

"If there is a still greater absurdity than to speak of a cruel God: it is to admit that God, the Great, Absolute Whole, could ever interfere in terrestrial or human affairs.

The infinite cannot associate with the finite; the unconditioned ignores the conditioned and the limited.

The absolute "Intelligence-Wisdom" cannot act in the restricted space of a small globe.

It is omnipresent and latent in the Cosmos, infinite as itself."

We find it's only true manifestation in humanity as a whole, composed as it is of stray sparks, finite in their objective duration, eternal in their essence, issuing from that hearth without beginning or end.

Therefore the only God whom we should serve is humanity, and our only cult should be the love of our fellow man."

Cancer and Dogs

Recent research has shown, yes with scientifically provable results, that dogs are able to detect cancer long before any equipment is able to.

The approach is non-intrusive, using urine samples from patients which are given to trained dogs for evaluation.

The level of accuracy from dogs is over 92%, while that of current equipment is lower being in the high sixties and can only detect cancer in the later stages.

Using dogs for this work is no different than the thousands of trained dogs currently being used worldwide for catastrophies, drug sniffing, police, military work and so on.

The most rigorous research has been conducted over many years at Cambridge in England, a University in Florida and a clinic in California. The research is ongoing in all three places.

Now here's the interesting if sad bit.

When officials at the major UK cancer research institute were asked what they thought about these results here are their comments:

That's interesting.
It is difficult to train dogs.
The dogs could not work as hard as machines.
The results would not be as accurate
It's interesting but a long way off from practical use.
Technology is moving fast and devices will be able to do this work in the future.

Huh?

Apart from the NIH (Not Invented Here) attitude, notice that there is no excited interest just damning with faint praise.

Could it be that narrow self-interest is more important to these people than what could be brought to cancer sufferers?

They take their karma.

"Shine on you crazy diamond"

A Pink Floyd lyric to a former band member Sid Barrett

Do you ever go crazy?

Ever let go, step outside yourself?

Do you do it chemically, or with alcohol, speed, mdma, dope whatever?

Most of us start out trying everything then we tend to fix on our drugs of choice.

Further down the road we either keep on going to oblivion or back off to being occasional users.

Weekend partakers if you will.

What if you took the wrong road?

What do we mean?

Apart from any moral arguments about laws on drug usage this might still be missing the point

Which is?

That moving into a space of pleasant relaxation without drugs is more interesting than having to rely on drugs.

Drugs all have decidedly negative effects over time.

These effects are psychological, psychical, relational, physical wear and tear on our systems, not to mention the financial costs.

Conversely learning to see the beauty in nature, to meditate, relaxing without having to use drugs has only positive cumulative effects over time.

Improve your health, your life.

Observe for yourself how pleasant it is to feel good 24/7 rather than having to recover from feeling the effects of whatever drugs you use.

Choices, they are always yours, make one today!

"Astrology is the mother of Astronomy and Alchemy is the mother of chemistry, just as the plastic soul is the mother of primitive physical man.

Astrology and Alchemy are equally the soul of the two modern sciences.

As long as this truth is not recognised, Astronomy and Chemistry will continue to run in a vicious circle and will produce nothing beyond materiality."

Self-Knowledge

Self-knowledge is the only way for humans to start on the long path towards enlightenment.

The first necessity for obtaining self-knowledge is to become profoundly conscious of ignorance; to feel with every fibre of the heart that one is ceaselessly self-deceived.

The second requisite is the still deeper conviction that such self-knowledge - such intuitive and certain knowledge - can be obtained by effort.

The third and most important is an indomitable determination to obtain and face that knowledge.

Self-knowledge of this kind is unattainable by what men usually call "self-analysis". It is not reached by reasoning or any brain process, for it is the awakening to consciousness of the Divine nature of man.

Too obtain this knowledge is a greater achievement than to command the elements or to know the future.

None of the great religions, neither the Ethiopian nor any
other, has proceeded the religion of the first Vedists ancient
Budhism.

When one speaks of of esoteric Budhism (with one d) it is
mistaken for Buddhism, the religion of Gautama the Buddha.

Buddha is a title of the sages and means the illumined one.

Budha means wisdom intelligence, the personification of
secret wisdom, of esotericism.

This Budha is by thousands of years older than the year 600 before the Christian era, date assigned to the appearance of Gautama the Buddha.

Budhist esotericism has therefore nothing to do with the Buddhist religion.

Myour

Myour is the new name for this blog although we have not changed the address.

Why?

Because the same name is being used elsewhere by an organisation dedicated to similar but dissimilar objectives, so better to change now to a name that is unique...................so far!

Myour is just a play on the words my and our.

Enjoy.

Something nice

Give a present to everyone you meet!

Yes, everybody!

It will change your life.

Why?

Because it works like this:

usually we are busy all day long inside our heads with our innumerable thoughts about our own lives so that often we pay little attention to those we meet or who serve us.

If you decide to give everyone you meet a gift or present, and by this we mean a nice word, a smile, a comment, your attention.............................. then this is what happens:

you take the attention of yourself and your own thoughts or problems.

You put your attention onto the other person and actually notice and respect their needs and situation.

In other words you move the focus from me to him or her and by so doing make others feel better and give yourself a break from yourself.

Absolutely worth doing it changes your life!
