I seemed to know an individual just like that Khstraiya, or is your name Chemistrya?-LOL,
Anyway, I don’t miss that guy, he was funny at times though, the things he came up with- But at times he didn’t appear a good advocate of non violence for this website, but it seemed to be true for him that he was helping another person know who they really are by comparison to what he was acting out. Yet it was really himself that he was getting to know better….Of course we know in the life of God there are no comparisons…
Still, keeping with infinite progress, I much prefer the guy on the golf course putting pleasantries on the green into the whole.
Happy Golfing!!

I encountered my first Chopra message board back in 2002. A few months after becoming a member, there was a poster by the name of “unknown” who began participating there. OMG!! You’ve never seen such an uproar as that guy created. Always telling us we were monkeys with monkey minds. It was quite interesting to read there at the time because all of the mighty pillars of spiritual seeking were there. It was unreal to see so many, who could write so beautifully from their finely-crafted, supposedly loving hearts, react with a torrent of rationalizing, justifying, and defending themselves.

I kind of mss that guy. He taught me a lot about myself.

John,
You don’t know love…Pure and simple…? You say you realize how little you know?
You don’t know life? You try to sound like you understand but you admit you are still a puppet on a string…so be it for you..
That which spiritual sense alone comprehends and which is unknown to the material senses is what you term the unknown..

Happy Fishing!!

Unfoldment works for me. Well shared.

By: G

Yes I agree it is a filling out of the experience that I sometimes call- unfoldment..
Yes Tahoe is beautiful! Very Clear and Crisp…

I use to enjoy driving down the mountain and seeing the mountain from the valley too…

Wisconsin is vast and I love the farm land here “its good for now”…..

The second sentence above should read- “For me, it’s a ‘filling out’ of the experience.

Tahoe- Was fortunate enough to travel in the area as a young man. I’ll never forget the quality of the sunlight in that region. Such a golden tone…

Awareness and God’s thoughts co-existing IS the point. For me, it’s a ‘filling out’ out the experience.

Is it NOT being conscious to sit quietly AND wait for the words to arrive?

Have never played golf in Lake Tahoe. Mostly in the Midwest. I long to feel a gently sloping fairway underfoot as I approach my next shot…

Golf surly is a great way to find out just how aware you really are….Riding a young Saddlebred can keep you on your toes too…
I use to play golf in Lake Tahoe…Ever play there?

In this human experience we can seem as if we are puppets on strings when we are not consciously thinking…Or better stated Being Aware—

By: Michelle

Michelle — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 03:17:42 +0000

Yes I agree that awareness is not the same as thought, But God’s thoughts do exist in this human experience as an attribute of awareness-in fact awareness and Gods thoughts co-exist….
Surly we can be Aware of Awareness itself and be Consciously Present and we also know when we are aware of our thoughts–

I, too, experienced a rash of angry outbursts after a series of meditations, directed at my grandson. Oddly, I was repeating what had been directed at me when I was his age! Fear rising out of my “pain body” emerged and took over. In the middle of a tirade I was aware and was the observer, astounded at its force. “When the love of power is replaced by the power of love, we will know peace.” “Life isn’t as serious as my mind makes it out to be.”

It appears what we have here is a meeting of the Eastern and Western mind…

The synesthetic Eastern mind responds to taste, smell, colour, the sound resonance and the Western Mind is intellectual and reactionary. So, The Western Mind sees things from an opposite perspective to the Eastern Orientated Mind.

The Linear English Language has become reactionary where the diphthongs become plosive in an expression of emotionally charged attachment to thought – especially where the language is a learned behaviour of expression – as is taught in most schools – often under threat and duress and mostly as a grapheme disassociated from the body.

The traditional languages of the East are kinaesthetic – they are feeling and knowing – not emotive and expressive – where the resonance of the phonetics are the sounds which make up the whispering sounds of the flow of soundlessness.

We can learn more about this here… http://www.transpersonal.com.au/mind.htm

But where would the melding take place?

Antero Alli describes “Second Attention” this way- “If you wish to increase perception, relax the urge to know, to label, and to define. While these reactions may temporarily secure our sense of certitude, their hypnotic influence easily overwhelms the inner action of seeing.” http://www.paratheatrical.com/attention.html

We have to include another factor in the equation to arrive at understanding-

“Awareness is not the same as thought. It lies beyond thinking, although it makes use of thinking, honoring its value and power. Awareness is more like a vessel which can hold and contain our thinking, helping us to see and know our thoughts AS thoughts rather than getting caught up in them AS reality.” -Jon Kabat Zinn

As we all might imagine, it IS stranger than we can think. 🙂

John that is good advice for one who is using human logic..but I know that human logic is not spiritual logic…try not to confuse the two….For in Truth The Spiritual Logic is the only Logic that makes Good Sense…

Reality,,,,,,, or truth never shows itself through intelect or logic,,,,,,to transcend words and concepts leads us to the complex simple truth,,,, agree with Kshatriya The meek shall inherit the earth,,,,,,,, or the meek shall inherit dominium over the earth,,,,,,not logical that intelect is not rewarded by god,,,,spirit but godhead knows every persons intent of heart,,,irrespective of the individuals spoken word,,,,the words we speak deep inside, are the words of our nature,,,,,,we cannot ,candywrap our truth,,,,, We should not brow beat people with the intelectual repose,,,,,it is easy for me because im not intelectual it is easy for me to be basic form,,,,,but i should sort out my spelling,,,all is good

Wow indeed! When I first got to this article, I had a fleeting feeling that the author had these feelings of anger. Then I realized that it’s not so. And by reading it I’ve learned something that I keep forgetting: not to act upon my feelings of anger – or any other feelings for the matter. Simply acknowledge them, notice them and let them simply float away.

It is our duty to transcend words and concepts to be able to encounter reality…

Waiting for Godot? 🙂

And from Wallace Stevens’ “On the Road Home”

It was when I said,
“There is no such thing as the truth,”
That the grapes seemed fatter.
The fox ran out of his hole…

The linear-logical mind will always have a rough time with paradox, g 😉

-Calm across the sea, no storms are in thee.

-Keep reaching for thy silent song within thy heart, and anger soon will thus depart.

Agree with Deepak,,,,, old energies leaving the body,,,,,, Allow them to fall away, without a second thought given to them, will result in negative energies ,NOT becoming negative actions,,,,,
