Identification Means to Transact Poorly Against our Inner Being's Values - (4036)

Whenever we get identified with an ego (an "I") what we end up doing is making a transaction. A pretty bad transaction...


We spend some of our inner values and dharma to get 'something'. Most often that 'something' is worth a lot less...


We identify with anger spending the serenity, patience and trust of our Inner Being for a few assuring  or apologetic words from another human being - and who knows if they really mean it... 


We trade the life blood of our Inner Being for something that often has no or little life and is a bit or fully illusory. 



So often it is like what Jack Sparrow did in the Pirates of the Caribbean when we sold the magic compass given to him by Tia Dalma - a Goddess of the Sea, for a mere mediocre bottle of rum. 


That compass was so magic that he just had to feel in his heart what we wanted and the compass would guide him to where he would find it.


The values of our Inner Bing are the magic compass...

The Wrong Strength - (3491)

Introduction

There are so many people that are strong and have made themselves strong which is good, especially if that strength is the conscious or awakened strength.


There is also an unconscious strength which is the strength of the ego, based in ill-will. The power of will is always strong. Good will and ill-will are both strong... 


The unconscious or egoical strength, creates a lot of imbalance within a person with serious consequences inside and outside.


The unconscious use of strength unaware of the better or conscious use of strength and so creates problems for others, with the end result being that nobody really likes the person. There may be just a few people that can tolerate the person, but in small doses only.


In life, the strong go places, yet only a few in society like them. Life beats down hard on the weak, yet society tends to favour and like the weak... 


The best is to be neither of these two: strong or weak, but something different, that is someone who is inwardly strong...


The inwardly strong person is the one who sets up a beautiful outer balance with good relationships, and inside of him or her, there is the dominant presence of what should really be governing inside of each human being - the awakened essence and its principles.


Until the awakened essence appears within - the work on oneself must govern.

Egoical Strength

People wanting to be strong and come out on top in life, in the end, result to using ill-will and violence. If a person uses ill-will and violence they become ill-willed and violent in nature which leads nowhere good.


Remember there is violence in our mind, our words and in our actions. Violence is not only in our actions...


We can create in time and through many human experiences, a strong ill-will, because we have seen that it is useful. We have learnt that ill-will is always strong and it makes us strong and even stronger than most opponents. It is a sure fire way to come out on top - bring out our strong ill-will and we will win. 


We resort to ill-will because our value system is geared up to physically win, that is to be on top as far as physical matters and issues are concerned. We do not value the inner winning which is to hold up on high within ourselves the inner qualities of the Inner Being. To do this is really inner strength.


Inner Strength

As soon as we start to value the strength of the Inner Being, which is the strength to uphold the virtues, to trust in the power of the virtues and to know that coming out on top within us, is the most important, then we will stop resorting to ill-will and violence. 


To let go of ill-will and violence can only be done by valuing this inner strength. Which means to value the strength of the Inner Being and to will with all our heart for the the Inner Being to triumph through us. 


When we let go of ill-will and violence we result to the strength of the Inner Being which is not violent but is kind, wise, true and just.

Journey to Balance - (3932)

This is the typical journey that we take to find conscious balance in relation to something in life.


The key points are the after experiencing both sides we can learn the synthesis which comes from the experience of both sides and we come to see what balance is. 


Balance is always the wise or conscious combination of the two opposites. Which can also be summarised as the conscious application of a certain perennial value of our Inner Being, and also of the cosmos. 


The conclusion of finding balance, is that balance creates merit or dharma.

Inner Kaom Makes Us Do Things to Pay Our Karmic Debts - (3745)

There are parts of our Being related to the Great Law.


That is there are parts of our Being related to processing and paying our karmic debts and there are parts of our Being related to accruing and using our dharma.


The part of the Being called Kaom or 'our inner police man" is the one who reports our actions for processing and judgement with the Divine Law.


Our inner Anubis is related to how our karma is administered and it is also related to our determination of and feeling of justice in our life.


The point of this post is to say that sometimes it is one of these parts of our Being that makes us do things that will unfold a series of events for us to pay some of our karmic debts.


For reasons that escape us, we do things that we usually wouldn't do and because we didn't do those small things, we end up having to deal with some kind of inconvenience. 


For example, the one night we didn't lock the car, someone rifles through the car taking our favourite 'cool' sunglasses and small change collection.


Everything has a reason and very little is due to accidents, even the very apparent 'accidents' are nto accidents.

Hurt Others, to Test Love, is Not Love - (3616)

To hurt others in our mind or with our words and actions (direct or indirect) to somehow test love is not love.


Somehow in our strangely polarised psychology there is something that harms so to evoke what it is of love we have. It is a natural mechanism that love appears when there is harm.


One of the functions of love is to repair and heal and so harming makes this function to appear if there is any love...



We get like this because we have gone so far away from love, we have forgotten what it really is and further we have forgotten the full positive and edifying way of love. The clear and universally understood way that is not twisted.


After a while of doing this, harming in many different ways becomes the main tendency in the way we behave towards love. 


We have to eliminate this twisted way of accessing love.

Key to Transmuting without Lust - (3573)

Dissolving lustful mental forms is the key. 


While we are dissolving mental forms controlling these mental forms is the key. Do not allow these mental forms to enter the mind much less allow them to appear.  


One will see that when mental forms appear in the mind while transmuting, mental, emotional and sexual energy flows into those mental forms. One then begins to lose control over the inner flow of the sexual energy.


Then the practice may have to be stopped. 


Transmuting without these forms allows one naturality and natural control over the inner and upward flow of the sexual energy. Therefore allowing one to transmute the sexual energy.


By lustful mental forms it is meant sexual images that attract emotion. If an image appears do your best to let it go. If an image persists do not allow emotion to flow into it. That is when a significant amount of energy will then be deviated from our transmutation. 


One of the roles of energy within us is to give life. When there is a mental form energy flows to give that form life, and that outward deviation of the flow of energy, very much affects the inward and upward flow. Making us to lose control over the upward and inward flow.



This chart is not so related to the subject of this post. However, it just goes to show that mental forms to do with the sexual organs do produce very physical affects as do the other mental forms affecting other parts of the body as the chart above shows.

Training Makes Energy Available - (3567)

Training in any area slowly causes channels of energy to be opened so that energy can flow to the parts of our system that fulfill the function we are training for.


For example, to be able to swim a mile in the ocean is not possible at the beginning, but with training it becomes possible. The energy we have in the beginning is that same as the energy we have after training, the major difference is that energy has been made available. 


The process of training slowly directs energy to the task and slowly makes a channel for energy to flow. 
As training continues the mind also sees that the task is possible and other forces of our system which were not initially available become available.


Some of these forces are conscious faith and trust. 


We always have more or less the same amount of energy available it is just that our system does not have the channels open to direct the energy required.




Of course there is also that of building up the the strength and fitness in the muscles to be able to perform the task.


In emergency situations we see that our system opens the channels for a large amount of energy to flow and we do amazing things far beyond our apparent normal capacities. The reason is this, that certain channels that are normally closed were opened up by the consciousness or instinctive centre beyond the  control of the mind.


The training that interests us the most, is the training of the mind and consciousness. The more we train the mind and our attention, the more energy becomes available to us to be able to sustain attention and further study the mind.

Everytime the Ego Leaves the Human Machine there is Micro-Repentance - (3466)

In degrees without fail: 

We feel a relief when the ego definitely leaves our human machine.

We then often feel a small amount of repentance.


Why

Because, a micro contrast occurs within us. We remember the negative state of when the ego was in our human machine and we contrast against what we are now feeling and we feel that the negative state was in error.


It is also good to remember these moments of micro-repentance as they are good lessons to our consciousness for when we may next get identified with the same ego.


Conclusion

Do what is necessary to make the ego leave the human machine. Then we can get the better or best of ourselves. Not before then. We help ourselves a lot by displacing the ego from our human machine a priority.

A Little Bit About the Types of Consciousness - (3463)


The consciousness that we are aspiring to, is the cosmic and ontological consciousness. We already have human consciousness functioning. Human consciousness is influenced and conditioned by the factors shown in the diagram: human life (society and its values), nature, matter, personality, mind and ego. 


When we work on ourselves and when we work on awakening our consciousness we are waking up cosmic consciousness and a little of the ontological consciousness.


The more we wake up cosmic consciousness the more we wake up ontological consciousness.


Cosmic consciousness is the awareness of the consciousness, other dimensions, other beings, cosmic laws, cosmic moments, and greater purposes and visions of being and existence etc. While ontological consciousness is the awareness of the Being and all that is within the Bieng as a unity and as a sacred individuality connected to the cosmos.

A Beautiful Process to Deal with Difficult People in Difficult Situations - (3443)

A.L.L.A

Remember A.L.L.A: appease, listen, lead and act when in difficult situations with upset people. This is a teaching that comes from m.m.m. It is very helpful.


This is especially useful when we are working on the "I" of anger, and we need to educate our free essence to deal with conflictive situations in a different way, rather than with the way of anger that causes situations to explode.



Appease

It is important to do something first of all to calm the situation down. Ask all concerned to be calm and  invite everyone to give calm talking and listening a chance to peacefully come to a solution. This could require being quieter, being calm, speakly softer and using kinder words. 


There are many ways to appease situations, and for each person and situation there are particular ways. Here we have to draw on our knowledge of the person or people involved. A method that calms down one person may not work to calm down another. If we have knowledge then we must use it.


Listen

Here we have to listen to what the issue really is. This is an art which requires listening beyond the complaints, accusations, fear and anger. 


Listening is best done with our consciousness and when we listen we can know what can be done to make the situation better so that all involved can come to a better or greater understanding of the situation.


Lead

Once we know the issue and see some solutions, we must then lead the way presenting this solution and invite all involved to come to a higher state of consciousness to look for the solution instead of fighting and going back and forth in a circle. 


For there to be a different outcome or for the situation to change in quality for the better someone has to lead. Usually someone leads in the negative causing the situation to blow up or just go unsolved and worsen in time.


If we see a solution, it is our duty to lead or direct others to see or consider it. If there is no solution then we must lead others to a better attitude towards the situation. That is a positive more understanding attitude, that looks to the consciousness for a solution, which will come in time.


Act

We must then follow through with what is understood and initiated, and act appropriately in alignment with that.

Notes on Good Methods to Work on the Hypnotic Grip of the "I" - (5374)

Each ego for sure has a hypnotic grip. The most difficult part of working on any "I" is overcoming its hypnotic grip.


The hypnotic grip is the power an "I" has to make the free essence (us) to identify with it.


The hypnotic grip is what converts our pre-ego will that says: " I don't want that ego or I will not do that" into us wanting to do that and doing it. It makes us think, feel and do the things we don't want to.


The hypnotic grip has certain patterns or characteristics that can be identified, and when we identify them we can better work to overcome the hypnotic grip. 


Here are some of those characteristics:

Duality is the major characteristic. It is the power of thought. Specifically in the power of the not thought.


The ego always wants to be the "I am", and what moves it towards the "I am" is the not thought. The feeling of not hypnotises the free essence, and then the ego takes over to be the "I am".


We can for some reason not feel important, and the "I" of self-importance wants to feel important so then the same "I" of self-importance kicks in to initiate action to be important.


Here for example are some not thoughts: 

"If I don't do that, then I am not...".  

"If I don't do that, then I can not...".

"I can't allow...".

"I have to because I can not...".

"I have to because I am not...".

"I am not this then I am...".

"What if this happens...it will not be good".



The first way of working on overcoming the hypnotic grip is by using analysis and questioning. 


Always question the truth about what the "I" thinks and feels. Ask constantly is that true. Question each statement, each conclusion, each judgement, each projection and each interpretation and perception.


It is also good to turn around what the "I" thinks. That is, turn it around to the opposite and we will see quite often that the issue is really about ourselves. In the sense that the opposite is truer. 


For example, an "I" may say that a certain person is so ill-willed and difficult. Turning that around to the opposite we will find that there is actually ill-will within us on some level or direction which we have completely overlooked, and it is the hypnotic grip that has made that truth about ourselves into a 'not' statement or an opposite statement accusing the other of being what we are and being the problem.


Use analysis to determine what the "I" really wants. Ask the "I": "is that what you want that this and that suffers?". We will see that it often does not really want that, and so what it really wants lies in another direction, often a feeling within ourselves is what it wants.


Use analysis to break down the impression it reacts to. Break the impression down into its parts and examine each part separately. Be fully aware of what we are reacting to. We will see that we are reacting to our own selves many times. Our own concepts and interpretations

A Process to Make the Silence of the Mind to Appear - (3442)

A really beautiful process that works. Give it a try. This comes from m.m.m.



Attention

Transfer your attention to your mind and become aware of it. Sustain serene attention to become more and more aware of it what it is doing. Once we know, we know what we can do. In this case, 'to do' is to move on to organise.


Organization

Organise the thoughts. Create priorities, discard the unnecessary and irrelevant. Create an action plan for the mind to work to after the practice.


Relaxation

Let go of the thoughts. Relax the mind, practice no thinking. Be very patient, allow the thoughts to come and continue to let them go, serenely and patiently.


Silence

Gaps in thoughts will appear. Keep letting go, allowing the gaps to widen. Relax and relax the mind, no thinking, breathing and relaxing deeper and deeper into the ensuing silence of the mind.

Process of Acquiring a Value - (3222)

Introduction

Here below is the process by which we generally acquire a value.


Steps




Steps Explained

1. Something happens in life, there is an event and there are impressions, together they contribute to a fraction of our essence becoming conditioned. This conditioning strengthens in time creating a psychological "I". 


2. When a psychological "I" is created there is always a value of our essence that has become corrupted, and the result is that a value of our essence is polarised, to function by duality externally instead of internally. 


3. This external polarisation of a value makes us to suffer and a make many mistakes making ourselves and others suffer and so we accrue more karma.


4. To ease our suffering we demand or seek that value externally which causes suffering and that brings emptiness and bitterness to us.


5. We, out of pain begin to read and study and look for answers. We find the psychological work and we begin to observe and study as well as do anything we can to not fall into that suffering. The results of all this work brings us a great discovery...


6. The breakthrough of breakthroughs is when we discover the precise and concrete psychological value that is what we lack and which is also the opposite of that value and therefore the remedy to our suffering.


7. We work to exercise that value. We do this by first stopping the "I" from manifesting in the motor centre and then do the opposite in our centres by applying the value or remedy to that "I".


8. We slowly begin to acquire within ourselves the free version of that value. Now that we have some of it, we can give it. We can only give something that we have. We can't give what we don't have.


9. By having that value we can now use ti to pay the many karmic debts that we created with the opposite or lack of that value.


10. As we continue to work and pay our karmic debts the psychological "I" conditioning that value is finally dissolved.


11. Now with that value totally free we can radiate it - it shines from within us, and others can perceive it and feel it and are benefitted, lead and taught by it.


12. That value can now be sublimated, that is brought to take us closer and into the Being.


13. After sublimating that value to the level of the Being it becomes a path way to enter deeper into our Being, whom is the origin and source of that value.

Gluttony is Density of Consciousness Keeping Us Eating the Ego - (3406)

We at first think gluttony has all to do with eating and drinking excess food. It does but that is only the surface...


Then we later see that it is also about taking advantage of as many opportunities 'to have' as possible.


If those opportunities are free or easy to come by, gluttony finds itself revealing in paradise.


However, the deeper aspect of gluttony is about consuming, absorbing, condensing and sliding downwards. 


The opposite of gluttony is to absorb, transform and lift up. Gluttony is not a force that transcends or lifts one up to higher levels.


It is actually the factor within us that keep us eating the impressions of any ego and making that heavier and stronger. 



The factor of gluttony feeds any ego. As any ego in us gets stronger and heavier our overall level of the Being and consciousness slides down.


This is really why it is a deadly sin.


A significant step in dissolving the physical surface level of gluttony is to transcend the psychology of food. Which results in looking at food differently. That is, not as something to do with sensations of comfort but as a source of energy. 


To absorb more energy than we can use creates unbalance and heaviness and the sensations of heaviness are not worth compromising our health.


The same applies with the ego and its impressions. We must work to transcend their food and the sensations they bring.
