FoxesTruth:      Intent...great name

RIVER CAVE:            :::::taking down sign that says "Silence! Ego at work"

HOST LFST Intent:    Thanks

FoxesTruth:      Intent goes before thought eh?

HOST LFST Intent:   

FoxesTruth:      so what is the chat??? <dying to know>

HOST LFST RB3000:            Welcome, everyone -- tonight is our eighteenth class

HOST LFST RB3000:            in Ecstatic Awareness. This evening's subject is "The

HOST LFST RB3000:            nature of the Divine, and how we connect to {it}."

HOST LFST RB3000:            Once again, for those who are joining us for the first

HOST LFST RB3000:            time, the way we are using the term "ecstatic

HOST LFST RB3000:            awareness" here means entering into states of

HOST LFST RB3000:            consciousness, accompanied by transformation of

HOST LFST RB3000:            being, in which the supernatural and the Miraculous

HOST LFST RB3000:            can be witnessed and experienced directly.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            We run this class in "semi-formal" protocol, which

HOST LFST RB3000:            means that we allow the speaker (*me*, in our case)

HOST LFST RB3000:            to roll out a few paragraphs of an idea without

HOST LFST RB3000:            interruption, then resume free discussion of those

HOST LFST RB3000:            ideas.

HOST LFST RB3000:            Are there any procedural questions before we begin?

Mui Turtle:        Hi

HOST LFST RB3000:            Ok, friends, let's begin tonight's class: "The nature of

HOST LFST RB3000:            the Divine, and how we connect to {it}."  I've noticed

HOST LFST RB3000:            that there is a great tendency in the race of humans to

HOST LFST RB3000:            carry whatever stories we were told at our mother's

HOST LFST RB3000:            knee, all the way throughout our lives without

HOST LFST RB3000:            questioning it.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            In the West, we generally have an old man with a

HOST LFST RB3000:            long, white beard, and his counterpart, a red-hot guy

HOST LFST RB3000:            with features of a goat; other cultures have goddesses

HOST LFST RB3000:            or pantheons of deities; demons and angels; animal

HOST LFST RB3000:            and plant spirits, nymphs, hamadryads, elves, faeries

HOST LFST RB3000:            and stone beings.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            But these are all just stories that we tell our children

HOST LFST RB3000:            without really believing in them ourselves, and then

HOST LFST RB3000:            we hush our children up when they report back that

HOST LFST RB3000:            they've seen the creatures of these stories.

HOST LFST RB3000:            Perhaps their imaginations merely create illusions of

HOST LFST RB3000:            what they've heard in the stories; but maybe they can

HOST LFST RB3000:            see for themselves what we have relegated to

HOST LFST RB3000:            comforting fiction.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            So why are the scriptures so darn persistent and

HOST LFST RB3000:            convincing to us, somehow? Most of us don't believe

HOST LFST RB3000:            in them literally, but we're not prepared to abandon

HOST LFST RB3000:            them either. They are filled with tales of the

HOST LFST RB3000:            Miraculous, with Divine Justice, with deliverances from

HOST LFST RB3000:            suffering and death, and with beautiful and terrible

HOST LFST RB3000:            messengers.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            Did the ancients really see such wonders? Can we trust anyone

HOST LFST RB3000:            alive today who reports seeing angels or experiencing miracles?

HOST LFST RB3000:            Would we really want to find out that the world is a magical

HOST LFST RB3000:            place populated with invisible and powerful beings who "reveal

HOST LFST RB3000:            themselves here and there, now and then, and to this one and

HOST LFST RB3000:            that one?" (like a pookah. 

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            ***** At that, let us stop here for a moment and share

HOST LFST RB3000:            examples from our experiences of witnessing miracles or

HOST LFST RB3000:            encountering angels, faeries or spirits, and also I'd like to hear

HOST LFST RB3000:            your own view of what the Divine really is. Let's forget about

HOST LFST RB3000:            what we learned in Sunday school and go with our guts. Go

HOST LFST RB3000:            right ahead now, please ... open floor on this question. ...

Scamper22:       Well, yes, I've heard reports of encouters with angels and spirits.  Just saw a movie

Scamper22:       yesterday about The Haunting, based on a true story.

Drpatcrawford:            Must our story be of "supernatural events," or just everyday miracles, like two persons

Drpatcrawford:            connecting in a magical way, or a car stopping and not killing us...?

DCizunas:         Vision is only one way of experiencing these beings...you can also sense them around you (cl

HOST LFST Heart:    When I related accounts of seeing spirits as a child my mother told me never to tell it

HOST LFST Intent:    Drpatcrawford, just everyday miracles are fine

Drpatcrawford:            Or someone opening up, unmasking, telling the whole truth for a change...

Drpatcrawford:            Thank you, Intent...

HOST LFST RB3000:            Drpatcrawford, that's a great example

DCizunas:         Heart, wasn't that awful??

Drpatcrawford:            I had a wonderful event today...really happened, even tho sometimes I think I am making this stuff up...

Mui Turtle:        what is truth

Scamper22:       Hi Intent!  And Heart!  Sorry, didn't see ya!  Was moving fast! 

Mui Turtle:        what is nontruth

HOST LFST Heart:    yes DC it was, it kept me from realizing my gifts

Mui Turtle:        its all relative

Drpatcrawford:            "Rude" waitress...I was going to distance self, working with new teacher on ALWAYS coming from love...

Mui Turtle:        as much so as fairies most certain

DCizunas:         Heart, good thing that you had the opportunity to do so later..better late than never...LOL!

Drpatcrawford:            So I "whitelighted" her with my love, hard but I tried to be pure...

Log Count:   There were 19 member(s) in The New Age at 08:00 PM

Drpatcrawford:            She gave great service...showed me her tattoo of phoenix rising...

HOST LFST Heart:   

Drpatcrawford:            NO kidding,k lifted up her shirt sleeve and showed me...

Scamper22:       Drpat, it DOES work!  I know.  If they are giving permission, you bet!

Scamper22:       But watch out if they don't. 

Drpatcrawford:            The woman who is teaching me to come from love's into fire as cleansing.

Drpatcrawford:            I cried a bit...didn't share with waitress, just complimented her on the tattoo...

HOST LFST Intent:    What I have noticed is that once you grow older, you are expected to

HOST LFST Intent:    become an adult, and not believe stories of angels, dreams, and other

HOST LFST Intent:    paranormal activity

Heavenlysentforu:       what is whited lighted?

Drpatcrawford:            Manager was a bit freaked out...

Scamper22:       Intent, so sadly true.

HOST LFST RB3000:            HOST LFST Intent, why let *miracles* be "everyday"?  If

HOST LFST RB3000:            it's truly a miracle, can't we let it be ineffable?

Drpatcrawford:            Tried to stay in the light my own self, hard, so I could channel love

Drpatcrawford:            to her...hard...I am demanding of good service, easily frustrated...cold...

DCizunas:         Yes Intent, even if you are free from it at home, your peers ridicule you

HOST LFST Intent:    True DCizunas

Scamper22:       DC, again, true.  Seems ridicule is the name of the game these days.

HOST LFST Intent:    RB300, still thinking

Scamper22:       The "cowards" tool.

Khiron1771:     ineffable?

HOST LFST RB3000:            Scamper, I'd still love to hear how your world has been UNordinary.

Scamper22:       RB, I mentioned seeing the moving The Haunting, which was based on a true story.

Drpatcrawford:            How about "the external reflects the internal..."

Drpatcrawford:            "Change the world?  Change yourself..."

HOST LFST Intent:    Drpatcrawford, could you expain further?

Ddreamtime1:   lots of times its my own preconceived idea that i will be ridiculed   

Drpatcrawford:            Hard lesson for me, but when "they" or "it" isn't right, it is my own work

Bimbo10000:    i have to go. thanks for enlightening me some hosts.

DCizunas:         DDream, but someone..parent, peer had to give you that notion : (

HOST LFST RB3000:            ***** All right, friends -- those are all wonderful thoughts

HOST LFST RB3000:            you've brought up. Now let us delve into the second half of

HOST LFST RB3000:            tonight's presentation: "Ecstatic Components of the

HOST LFST RB3000:            Moment" -- what on earth could those be? 

Heavenlysentforu:       i find that i have to struggle to connect its not easy for me

HOST LFST RB3000:            Heavenlysentforu, it's not easy for *anyone* 

HOST LFST RB3000:            Once again, please hold comments long enough for me to

HOST LFST RB3000:            roll out the main idea, and then we'll open the floor for

HOST LFST RB3000:            discussion.  Here we go ........................................

HOST LFST RB3000:            The paradigm of existence that I am presenting here, over

HOST LFST RB3000:            the months, is basically of a solipsistic, self-reflexive

HOST LFST RB3000:            hologram in fourteen dimensions. (I don't know that it's

HOST LFST RB3000:            exactly 14, but that's the Roman numeral in refleXIVe.  In

HOST LFST RB3000:            this paradigm, "coincidences" like that do matter.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            I know that there are more than eleven dimensions to it,

HOST LFST RB3000:            for example, because eleven is the number that modern

HOST LFST RB3000:            physics so far thinks it needs in order to describe

HOST LFST RB3000:            everything it has discovered so far, and their mandate is

HOST LFST RB3000:            to keep their sights as low as possible ("Occam's razor"). 

HOST LFST RB3000:            As a mystic, mine is to look beyond ("Occam's hair-

HOST LFST RB3000:            blower").

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            "It" being the Hologram, the "solipsistic" one, which

HOST LFST RB3000:            means that we regard all existence occurring within a

HOST LFST RB3000:            single Consciousness, holographic in that every "point"

HOST LFST RB3000:            within it has every possible point of view within it.

HOST LFST RB3000:            I apologize if it sounds like a circular definition, but we are

HOST LFST RB3000:            on a journey of discovery-- all Columbuses-- else

HOST LFST RB3000:            everything would already be known.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The Mystery lies on the other side of what can be talked

HOST LFST RB3000:            about, so we are talking to entertain our "reason" while

HOST LFST RB3000:            our intuition can have a chance to discern patterns and

HOST LFST RB3000:            movements, the "wu-li", the noumenon, the ineffable

HOST LFST RB3000:            emanations of the *Eschaton* -- all of which mean nothing

HOST LFST RB3000:            to our reason, just words for now.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The wonderful advantage of using the hologram as our

HOST LFST RB3000:            metaphor is that you can break a holomatrix into a billion

HOST LFST RB3000:            pieces, and each tiny shard "remembers" the whole

HOST LFST RB3000:            image, in as many dimensions as was originally recorded.

HOST LFST RB3000:            Of course the images of the little pieces have very little

HOST LFST RB3000:            power and resolution, but they can be filtered and

HOST LFST RB3000:            amplified so that we can trace all the extensions of

HOST LFST RB3000:            whatever was recorded.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            So now, using this metaphor, we can entertain the notion

HOST LFST RB3000:            that we are all together just one single Being, one single

HOST LFST RB3000:            Mind, having one single experience in one single Moment--

HOST LFST RB3000:            the *Moment of all Eternity*.

HOST LFST RB3000:            Every history, every universe can now be expressed not in

HOST LFST RB3000:            the time sequences and spatial distances that our reason

HOST LFST RB3000:            likes so much, but as instantaneous abstract projections

HOST LFST RB3000:            having nothing to do with time or space.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            I know this must sound dreadfully theoretical, or even

HOST LFST RB3000:            absurd, but every ecstatic mystic witnesses Existence and

HOST LFST RB3000:            Divinity in something like this way, although their

HOST LFST RB3000:            descriptions of it will reflect their cultural milieu, as mine

HOST LFST RB3000:            does. 

HOST LFST RB3000:            As you go back through your scriptures and mythologies

HOST LFST RB3000:            with this paradigm in mind, you'll start to see that it is just

HOST LFST RB3000:            such a paradigm that they are always attempting to

HOST LFST RB3000:            describe.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            For example, it becomes very easy to "explain" miracles

HOST LFST RB3000:            with this paradigm, as easily as catching flashes of light

HOST LFST RB3000:            and cross-reflections in a mirror. They project from other

HOST LFST RB3000:            spectral angles and dimensions.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            ***** The floor is back open for discussion. I know this is

HOST LFST RB3000:            kind of heavy, so take your time to scroll up and

HOST LFST RB3000:            contemplate.

Insink22:           your two eyes work together see different views

Insink22:           yet we see one

Insink22:           we forget that we have a twin flame

HOST LFST RB3000:            AzureWinds, once we experience it with control, it often

HOST LFST RB3000:            become our task to explain where we went and what we

HOST LFST RB3000:            saw, so others can verify it for themselves, no?

AzureWinds:     no

Mui Turtle:        3k are you rewording Bach's book Illusions here on us

HOST LFST RB3000:            Insink, I don't know how to verify that I have a twin flame.

Goldynlady:      I do

Insink22:           we can chat about such tales of power

HOST LFST RB3000:            Mui Turtle, thanks for reminding me-- I wanted to include that in my book list.

Mui Turtle:        lol

Goldynlady:      I just know it ...have met it ..and KNOW it IS

Heavenlysentforu:       i dont have a twin flame

HOST LFST Intent:    Insink22, care to share some of those tales? :))

Insink22:           maybe you forgot!

Insink22:           or call it something differant

Goldynlady:      whatever name it has it exists

Insink22:           this dream we dream now

Log Count:   There were 16 member(s) in The New Age at 08:15 PM

Mui Turtle:        choice in twin souls , choice in all

HOST LFST RB3000:            Mui Turtle, what would you say your choices are?

Heavenlysentforu:       i thought  a twin soul is a soul mate?

Mui Turtle:        to allow this in or not validate it 3k

Mui Turtle:        those are my choices

Insink22:           all we have are our decisions

HOST LFST RB3000:            Mui Turtle, of course-- I am only presenting all this as a

HOST LFST RB3000:            paradigm-- a tool for contemplation.

Insink22:           we can choose to get "stuck" on anything!

AzureWinds:     Heavenly, twin soul, soul mate, all are concepts

AzureWinds:     someone created to explain a particular seeming

AzureWinds:     phenomena, it is all man made and not revalevant

AzureWinds:     to truth

Heavenlysentforu:       i feel like this isn't making sense

HOST LFST RB3000:            Heavenlysentforu, I know-- it took me decades before I could untangle all this.

Mui Turtle:        even then i would need much thought of doing it

Insink22:           the blending of the two sides

Insink22:           nothing stands so sublime

HOST LFST RB3000:            Well, let's continue with the lesson a little more, and see if

HOST LFST RB3000:            it connects the dots a little bit more, ok?

Heavenlysentforu:       well all i know host is 11;11is what i se all the time

Heavenlysentforu:       for over 10 yrs now

Insink22:           <<<Connected

Angelchakra:     <<<dots connected here>>>

AzureWinds:     3000, why would you want to spend all that time

AzureWinds:     untangling it...love is so much simpler and easier

HOST LFST RB3000:            AzureWinds, I actually answered that question in an earlier

HOST LFST RB3000:            class, and it takes about 45 minutes to answer it, so may I

HOST LFST RB3000:            request that you look back thru the logs ?

HOST LFST RB3000:            Now let us take another step and reach the exciting climax

HOST LFST RB3000:            of tonight's featured presentation, "How we get to {it}." 

HOST LFST RB3000:            Please once again hold all comments till I have a chance to

HOST LFST RB3000:            roll out these last few paragraphs. .................................

HOST LFST RB3000:            In previous sessions, I've talked to you about all the

HOST LFST RB3000:            preparatory exercises: listening, tasting and feeling on

HOST LFST RB3000:            deep, synaesthesic levels; dream and trance work;

HOST LFST RB3000:            chanting and sacred dance, martial arts; mystical rituals;

HOST LFST RB3000:            and consistent meditations of different kinds.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            If you've been doing some balanced combination of these

HOST LFST RB3000:            sorts of things for long enough, and consistently enough,

HOST LFST RB3000:            you may now be ready for the second phase of attentional

HOST LFST RB3000:            shift: "dreaming the Silence" or "Seeing without words" or

HOST LFST RB3000:            (one of my favorite expressions from don Juan) "the

HOST LFST RB3000:            somersault into the inconceivable."

HOST LFST RB3000:            Gurdjieff prefers the undramatic "self-remembering."  Take

HOST LFST RB3000:            your pick after you've done it some.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The components of this shift start with the breaking of all

HOST LFST RB3000:            habits, all psychological programming that keeps our first

HOST LFST RB3000:            attention fixed on a societal "norm."

HOST LFST RB3000:            Obviously this can't be done in a minute, nor by merely

HOST LFST RB3000:            deciding to do it; sometimes a decade or two of the

HOST LFST RB3000:            preliminary practices will get this going sufficiently.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The exception would be if you go through a near-death

HOST LFST RB3000:            experience (as in the movie "Resurrection"), a serious

HOST LFST RB3000:            illness (as in "Phenomenon") or get struck by lightning (as

HOST LFST RB3000:            in "Powder"), but it's still quite rare for someone to

HOST LFST RB3000:            consolidate the shifts of Attention that such shocks induce.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The second component of "self-remembering" or "second

HOST LFST RB3000:            attention" may often be rreferred to as "taking one's

HOST LFST RB3000:            inventory" or "recapitulating"-- there are similar Sufi and

HOST LFST RB3000:            Buddhist practices, but I don't know their names.

HOST LFST RB3000:            This is usually given as a preliminary exercise, sort of

HOST LFST RB3000:            passed off casually but, if done consistently, results in

HOST LFST RB3000:            highly attuned articulation of this special Attention.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            Taken in the simplest way, it amounts to reliving every

HOST LFST RB3000:            decision point of our lives, every moment in which we

HOST LFST RB3000:            compromised, lost something, lied, stole, or made

HOST LFST RB3000:            ourselves the victim of anything or anyone.

HOST LFST RB3000:            This is not merely telling ourselves the stories we've been

HOST LFST RB3000:            running in our heads non-stop since we learned them; but

HOST LFST RB3000:            reliving the actual collection of experiences or

HOST LFST RB3000:            "impressions" that made up each point of our lives in

HOST LFST RB3000:            which our realities split into divergent streams.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The pinnacle of this exercise is when "your head is turned

HOST LFST RB3000:            around 180 degrees" and you can see the "future" as it

HOST LFST RB3000:            approaches you, which means you can see the exact

HOST LFST RB3000:            result of each microdecision you are making each moment.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            The third component is an amalgamation of ruthlessness,

HOST LFST RB3000:            surrender, vigilance, faith, devotion and patience.

HOST LFST RB3000:            In this context, ruthlessness does not mean violence,

HOST LFST RB3000:            surrender does not mean yielding, faith does not mean

HOST LFST RB3000:            believing anything, devotion does not mean enslavement,

HOST LFST RB3000:            and patience does not mean waiting around for something

HOST LFST RB3000:            to happen.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            Our final component of "second attention" that we'll cover

HOST LFST RB3000:            tonight involves the perception or attunement with

HOST LFST RB3000:            hyperdimensional channels, anchoring and burnishing

HOST LFST RB3000:            them, "dying" and "being reborn" from one to another of

HOST LFST RB3000:            them, collecting or bundling the channels, "surfing the

HOST LFST RB3000:            Zuvuya" as Jose Arguellez puts it, and "tagging" or keying

HOST LFST RB3000:            the entry points.

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            There is a tool that helps with this, sometimes called

HOST LFST RB3000:            "love", but nothing like what people normally call "love." In

HOST LFST RB3000:            fact, this word is so universally abused that most of my

HOST LFST RB3000:            teachers avoid ever mentioning it. They prefer more

HOST LFST RB3000:            abstract terms, like "the movement of the shine of the

HOST LFST RB3000:            eyes" or "the blow to chief feature" or "the shattering of

HOST LFST RB3000:            the mirror of self-reflection" or "the substitution of the

HOST LFST RB3000:            continuity of perception."

HOST LFST RB3000:            What do these terms suggest to you? (Hint: these words

HOST LFST RB3000:            really only take on full meaning when there are no words

HOST LFST RB3000:            ("... when you call my name, I am no longer here...").

HOST LFST RB3000:            .

HOST LFST RB3000:            ****** Well, friends-- that's all I wanted to share with you

HOST LFST RB3000:            tonight, and now it's your turn-- please share with us any

HOST LFST RB3000:            NON-drug-induced experiences of altered attention that

HOST LFST RB3000:            you've been able somehow to direct in non-linear ways. 

HOST LFST RB3000:            I'd especially like to hear if you have had flashes or

HOST LFST RB3000:            glimpses that help you understand what this might be

HOST LFST RB3000:            about.  Go right ahead now please. ........

Mui Turtle:        its causing undue eyestrain getting stigmata here what does that mean ? microdecision off?

HOST LFST RB3000:            Mui Turtle, it means that everything that occurs in our

HOST LFST RB3000:            holographic lives depends on our particular decision of

HOST LFST RB3000:            where to go with it.

Drpatcrawford:            I used to believe this capacity, these capacities were more a result of culture, training...

HOST LFST Intent:    Drpat, I agree.  Training is required

SINGINGFEATHER:            RB3000  I had a wonderful flood of energy which hit during the March new moon.....

DCizunas:         3K, will you expand on what you mean in that 3rd component in another class?

Drpatcrawford:            Required, yes, but we enter with different capabilities, I think...

DCizunas:         Very iiterested in what you are getting at

Drpatcrawford:            Most of us jave some musical talent, e.g.

Drpatcrawford:            Altho some are tone deaf...

HOST LFST RB3000:            Drpatcrawford, training yes, but never automatically, and

HOST LFST RB3000:            cultures definitely discourage such capacities, except in

HOST LFST RB3000:            shamans and certain priests.

Drpatcrawford:            We can all benefit from training..

Drpatcrawford:            However, Pavarotti was singing opera as a babe and is still doing what he did then

Drpatcrawford:            And I believe lives in the ecstasy of these no drug induced states

Drpatcrawford:            damn near constantly and has since a child...

Heavenlysentforu:       why is it so hard to tap into the light energy?

HOST LFST RB3000:            DCizunas, we could talk about it here-- I'm not sure right

HOST LFST RB3000:            now, where we'll get to later on...

Drpatcrawford:            In my opinion the outlet for the talent is critical...otherwise it can be SO PAINFUL...

HOST LFST RB3000:            Drpatcrawford, you bet!

DCizunas:         3K, I'd like to find out about it : )

Drpatcrawford:            Which is why most rurn to drugs...alcohol, sex, $ , power, religion, dogma...CHAT  ROFL,

Drpatcrawford:            that is my drug of choice...

HOST LFST RB3000:            DCizunas, ok, I'll say a bit here...

Drpatcrawford:            In an attempt to NAP....

Ginutz1:            It's not hard to tap into light energy

Mui Turtle:        Drpat those are choices also like participation

DCizunas:         Thanks 3K

Mui Turtle:       

Log Count:   There were 22 member(s) in The New Age at 08:30 PM

Ginutz1:            why do you think that?

Drpatcrawford:            Bingo...no, hard to turn the light off...life experienced is so incredibly ecstacy

Drpatcrawford:            producing...

HOST LFST RB3000:            DCizunas, basically, the third component is the real

HOST LFST RB3000:            emotions we have- the ones that we "steer" with, as

HOST LFST RB3000:            opposed to the mushy stories that decoy for emotions.

Insink22:           my experance is that of flirting with freedom

Heavenlysentforu:       well the host said it was hard for everyone

Drpatcrawford:            HARD to take...

SINGINGFEATHER:            nice to drop in at the end of this catalyst of growth

Insink22:           the know thought state

Mui Turtle:        trying to get to the heart of the matter host

TEECHINA:    like pretend emtions..not real

Insink22:           not stuck on things

HOST LFST RB3000:            .... and they can be computed as movements of the shine

HOST LFST RB3000:            of the sorcerer's eyes, if that can make any sense.

Tripsis2u:          there are lots of ways to connect to the divine

Ginutz1:            Light energy is the Divine

Drpatcrawford:            Mui, say more please about choices being like participation...

DCizunas:         Like getting back to the basic gut meaning that the words should have?

Tripsis2u:          in fact  there really should be no DISCONNECTION

Tripsis2u:          way we disconnect from the divine is  the topic too, yes?

HOST LFST RB3000:            Goldynlady, well, listening is a very good method for

HOST LFST RB3000:            gaining facility in these practices.

Insink22:           if all things are equal there is nothing to get stuck on

Ginutz1:            it's not about getting there 3000, it's about accepting it

HOST LFST RB3000:            Insink, for sure, but how do we get to where everything is equal?

HOST LFST RB3000:            (For further reading on tonight's topic, I recommend "In

HOST LFST RB3000:            Search of the Miraculous" by P.D. Ouspensky, "Forest of

HOST LFST RB3000:            Visions" by Alex Polari de Alverga, "The Eagle's Gift" by

HOST LFST RB3000:            Carlos Castaneda, "The Cloud of Unknowing"

HOST LFST RB3000:            and of course all your favorite scriptures and mythologies. J

HOST LFST RB3000:            Ginutz, ok, what does acceptance take? Just deciding, and boom?

Ginutz1:            It's acceptng that we are ALL energy

Meemoe:           The heart of the matter Is that In How we choose to react to or inner act with or detach from

Meemoe:           is a matter of Choice

Goldynlady:      acceptance takes "knowing"

Ginutz1:            Acceptance is knowing, yes

Heavenlysentforu:       i feel bogged down

Heavenlysentforu:       not like energy

Meemoe:           Our Inner Light Or fire Or Drive

Meemoe:           Is What is So Kneejurk Yet

Meemoe:           Honest

Insink22:           letting go of our "identification's our "discriminations" our "desires"

Meemoe:           And Once HOned In On Can Be Powerful

Meemoe:           and Conferming of ALL that Lies Within Us ALL

Meemoe:           the Spirit

HOST LFST Intent:    Insink, how do we accomplish that?

Insink22:           is a good start to trying to view all things as equal

Insink22:           wittness the times you get stuck

Insink22:           and unstick yourself

Efilymforetsam:           how could we ever be unhappy if we did not want anything?

HOST LFST RB3000:            (Two weeks from now our subject will be: "Secret keys,

HOST LFST RB3000:            programs and maps embedded in the DNA, the horoscope

HOST LFST RB3000:            and the gridlines of the world."  Please continue whatever

HOST LFST RB3000:            daily practices you are doing -- we'll be using everything

HOST LFST RB3000:            that results from them.)

Ginutz1:            It's becoming conscious of all of our thoughts words and deeds to begin with

Ginutz1:            and changing the negativity

Insink22:           WAKE UP

Drpatcrawford:            Equal yet unique, different, appreciating the differences, honoring the realities...yes?

Drpatcrawford:            I.e., discernment sans judgment?

Goldynlady:      I don't believe that enlightenment comes from denial

Ginutz1:            yes, honoring the choices/experiences others make

Tripsis2u:          Goldy ...why not

HOST LFST RB3000:            Drpatcrawford, yes, that is an admirable state to get into.

Insink22:           yes we will all wake up ...only to find ourself in yet another dream

Tripsis2u:          I beat cancer when I stayed stuck in denial

Goldynlady:      denial is going around experiences not thru them

FlowerJJN:        Standing like a tree ... with branches and leaves spread wide and roots planted in the earth

Tripsis2u:          I think we have denial for a very good reason

Drpatcrawford:            Tripsis, elaborate please...I am interested in your view...

Ginutz1:            to keep our energy lower?

Efilymforetsam:           what is real?

Tripsis2u:          it is a time when we can decide what to hold and what to fold

Efilymforetsam:           denying the appearance the ability to hurt us is not denial

Tripsis2u:          I refused to believe that I  was going to die

Heavenlysentforu:       i think what we think about expands and what we don't think 

Heavenlysentforu:       about doesn't

Efilymforetsam:           it is awakening

Drpatcrawford:            Tripsis, not asleep but not attached, honoring what is going on and choosing to attend to

Drpatcrawford:            preferred outcome, i.e., creating intention, yes?

Goldynlady:      denying ourselves real experiences or shutting ourselves away from the reality around us onl

Efilymforetsam:           what is the real?

Tripsis2u:          okay, I see...that happens too...

Efilymforetsam:           is it anything you see?

Goldynlady:      only creates eperation

Ginutz1:            the real to us is whatever we create

HOST LFST RB3000:            Drpatcrawford, how would we necessarily know what outcome is preferred?

Goldynlady:      separation

FlowerJJN:        real is the sky ... the earth ... the mountains and the seas ..

Ginutz1:            but reality is really recognizing we are all energy

Heavenlysentforu:       we have to detach from the outcome

Drpatcrawford:            I believe we have the right to make choices, make them known to God, the Universe, Spirit.

Drpatcrawford:            AND we also must be open to no control...Who was it said, God answers alll prayers...sometim

JLook91968:     3K....I think not having to be beaten would be a preferred outcome

HOST LFST Intent:    HOST RB300, would lucid dreaming fall into this catagory ?

Efilymforetsam:           that is true Drpat

Drpatcrawford:            sometimes tho the answer is NO...

Drpatcrawford:            LIVING in the paradox....:)))

Drpatcrawford:            Takes practice, is awesome...

HOST LFST RB3000:            Drpatcrawford, actually, the whole universe turns out to be

HOST LFST RB3000:            the sum total of our choices, but we don't know what the

HOST LFST RB3000:            results of our choices are, do we?

HOST LFST RB3000:            HOST LFST Intent, it *could* but usually doesn't-- no power.

Goldynlady:      we are only a part of the pattern in the weave with our choices

Efilymforetsam:           everything we experience is the result of our choices

Tripsis2u:          RB I don't agree with that

HOST LFST RB3000:            Tripsis2u, pray tell.

Mui Turtle:        so .....choices was the right answer after all..

Drpatcrawford:            I believe the Universe is the Universe and I am not sure exactly much about her beyond that

Tripsis2u:          I don't believe that  where one is ..is due to the sum of their choices

Drpatcrawford:            Except she

Meemoe:           Our every breath Is a choice

Drpatcrawford:            sure has been good to me!!! :))

HOST LFST RB3000:            Tripsis2u, I know-- took a lot for me to even consider such a proposition.

Efilymforetsam:           believe as you will trip

Drpatcrawford:            Lots of pain, lots of dung...

Insink22:           you dreamed   you went there   your   here

Efilymforetsam:           it really doesn't matter really

Efilymforetsam:           let us just flow

Tripsis2u:          I believe that no one is 100% responsible for where they are at any given time

Goldynlady:      our lives are the result of our choices mixed with the choices of othres

Drpatcrawford:            Incredible gain, pleasure, lotus blossoms....:)))

Mui Turtle:        Meemoe but not our every skin dander is a choice

Meemoe:           saw a nice a saying the other day Lets see if i can recall It

Mui Turtle:        its unconsciously always

Goldynlady:      we are all a part of the weave and we all are connected in that way

Meemoe:           BLOOM where Ever you happen to Be Planted For NOW

Insink22:           but to take responibilty

HOST LFST Intent:    Tripsis2u, if not "us" then who?

Mui Turtle:        eventually back to dirt

Insink22:           respond to your ability

Tripsis2u:          know why? (and I used to beleive that one was)

Heavenlysentforu:       meemoe thats cool

Tripsis2u:          because I  understand the power of  the spoken word

Tripsis2u:          and not all words  are uttered from me in my life

Mui Turtle:        ect

Goldynlady:      I like that Mee

Efilymforetsam:           the energies inside us as thoughts and emotions created what we are now

HOST LFST RB3000:            Tripsis2u, of course you have the right to that proposition,

HOST LFST RB3000:            but I had to look at where it got me.  100% responsibility

HOST LFST RB3000:            takes me a lot further, and will get us where we are going

HOST LFST RB3000:            with the matter of this class.

Efilymforetsam:           but we are all ever changing and growing

Efilymforetsam:           there is no limit to what we can become

Goldynlady:      you are only 100% responsablr for your part but you are still affected by others parts

HOST LFST Intent:    Very nice Efily

Tripsis2u:          sure... we can only take responsibility for our subsequent behaviours 

HOST LFST RB3000:            Tripsis2u, I know it seems to be coming from "elsewhere",

Drpatcrawford:            And own your filters, right IS22?  Like I LOVE dichotomies my own self...LOL

HOST LFST RB3000:            but who is it that *hears* it all, hmmm?

Log Count:   There were 17 member(s) in The New Age at 08:45 PM

Mui Turtle:        its the nonones, etc.

Drpatcrawford:            Pain, pleasure, dark, light, etc., etc., etc...

HOST LFST RB3000:            Goldynlady, in the paradigm I am presenting, there is only

HOST LFST RB3000:            one single holographic Consciousness at all.

HOST LFST Intent:    Drpat, have you had any near death experiences?

HOST LFST RB3000:            ... So there are no "parts" the way we've been thinking of them.

Goldynlady:      we ALL hear it all and we each make our way thru it from our own perspectives and our own values

Tripsis2u:          if a person's word is all one has to go by...then what?

Drpatcrawford:            Intent...Let's just say I have been "shown plenty," choose not to discuss in this context

Meemoe:           Heres Another From a friend:   An angel robed in spotless white, Bent down to kiss the

Meemoe:           sleeping Night, NIGht woke to Blush, the Sprite was gone... Men saw the blush and called it dawn

HOST LFST Intent:    Drpat, certainly

FlowerJJN:        Meemoe .. that was lovely ..

Mui Turtle:        one part its again relative to neurons firing from fragments of mass /energy/bioenergetics /

Mui Turtle:        magnetics

Mui Turtle:        and dirt

Mui Turtle:        that makes us one

Mui Turtle:        water oops forgot conductor

Tripsis2u:          when we relate to others all we HAVE really is their word aside from their actions and how

Tripsis2u:          it affects one

Goldynlady:      we affect one another fractally or cellular automata wise

Tripsis2u:          so when you ask...How do YOU connect to the divine

Tripsis2u:          I have to say throught the thoughts words and actions of those that are around us

JLook91968:     and what about the different types of intelligence with which we affect/effect the universe?

Efilymforetsam:           we are the divine behind our egos

Ddreamtime1:   meemoe :)  lovely use of the moments time

Meemoe:           I wonder If we werent So able Bodied If we'd Feel Less Strongly About the Physical aspect of

Meemoe:           Our actions

Mui Turtle:        ok those were just the dynamics of the physical did not go the soul/spiritual part

Mui Turtle:        that could take days

Tripsis2u:          whether it become adversity or a heavenly moment

Mui Turtle:        or just say it IS

Meemoe:           Like even Now If I could type with my brian I wouldnt need My fingers

HOST LFST Intent:    PhenixWoman, hold for just a little while longer?

Meemoe:           Pure Brian POWER

HOST LFST Intent:    Meemoe, great point....

Insink22:           there is a BLENDING

Insink22:           a mixing of mind body soul

Tripsis2u:          I find that the heavenly moments occur due to  trusting in  oneself and the adversity

Insink22:           the balance of these forces

Efilymforetsam:           how so insink?

Tripsis2u:          is usually due to not heeding the inner voice

Meemoe:           we Are no More limited By Our Minds than My Ass If To Pass GAS

Mui Turtle:        we can hook electrodes up to your head, Meemoe calibrate them to a microchip and before long

Mui Turtle:        your modem will be dialing up

Insink22:           balance is gain in the moment

Insink22:           IF you are not lost in your head

Insink22:           your body

Insink22:           or off in you soul

Efilymforetsam:           I think I understand

Meemoe:           Lost In My Head

Insink22:           the blending is sublime

Meemoe:           Sounds Like Lyrics

Efilymforetsam:           what are you then Insink?

Meemoe:           A MENTAL Orgasum

Tripsis2u:          Heavenly moments are the indication that we do connect to what is divine

Mui Turtle:        you watch , now that it has been spoken someone will develop it and make a million

Heavenlysentforu:       well when i mean connect

Heavenlysentforu:       i mean i want to manefest

Drpatcrawford:            I agree IS22...and in my experience, the lack of that balance leads to illness, disease, etc

HOST LFST Intent:    Insink, what are some of your methods for blending?

Meemoe:           I've manifested twice

Meemoe:           Two girlys

Insink22:           it starts with just getting "stuck"

Drpatcrawford:            Yes...and healing can begin in any sector, and a little in each works miracles...

Efilymforetsam:           hummm

Insink22:           not getting stuck!

Drpatcrawford:            Interrupt an old pattern...

Drpatcrawford:            "What one can't one must..."

Insink22:           to not get stuck you have to love freedom

HOST LFST Intent:    Insink, what do you mean by getting stuck?

Tripsis2u:          I like to be able to trust another's word

Insink22:           freedom does not get stuck

Drpatcrawford:            Yes...

Insink22:           anything

Efilymforetsam:           lol intent

Mui Turtle:        most work all their lives to get stuck though

Insink22:           stuck on a thought

Insink22:           a person

Insink22:           a place

Mui Turtle:        in one way or another

Insink22:           a feeling

Meemoe:           What One Must One can what One Cant One cant Know Without first trying

Insink22:           like in dreams if you awake in a dream

HOST LFST Intent:    Thanks Insink :)  gotcha

Insink22:           if you get "stuck"

Insink22:           focus on one thing too much

Efilymforetsam:           okay insink you are talking about be focused on something

Insink22:           you lose the flow

Heavenlysentforu:       its all talk but is it practiced

Insink22:           of you being there

Efilymforetsam:           okay I understand

Tripsis2u:          Insink you say that as if there was something wrong with it

Meemoe:           Getting cought up In IT

Meemoe:           rather than sitting Back and watching

Insink22:           this world

Meemoe:           things Like people watching

HOST LFST RB3000:            Ok, friends-- we'll be back here in TWO weeks for class

HOST LFST RB3000:            #19: secret keys all over the place.

HOST LFST RB3000:            Thanks for coming tonight, and enjoy your week off from class.

Efilymforetsam:           well not wrong, but what one gets caught up on, there he/she stays

Efilymforetsam:           until they release again

Efilymforetsam:           and flow higher

Insink22:           a man get tied up to the ground he gives the world his saddest sound

Insink22:           any view that is stuck   by fear  or clarity

Ddreamtime1:   there is a time for the hawks view and a time for the mouse view

Heavenlysentforu:       ill be back later i just am to distracted.
