Love/Hate

I don’t know, if its love, or hate,
That I feel for you,
I only know that it burns, hurts and blazes,
What I feel for you.
I don’t know, if its a blessing or a curse,
That you give me,
I only know, that you make my life,
Difficult and rich.

Mia Holm 1900

Anger, fear, pain and anguish are all lower emotional energies. Determination and resolve are the traits we acquire as we develop these energies. The development of these energies is not easy because there is often a gap between the way we wish things were and the way things really are. Lower emotional energies fill that gap.

At first we are confronted with negative or harmful physical circumstances which we have no control over. We are victims and feel the paralyzing despair of helplessness as events damage our lives and the lives of those we love. That is until we get fed up and decide to do something about the mess that we are in.

We develop these energies by deliberately and methodically confronting our deepest fears and bringing them into full awareness. As we develop these energies we still feel fear but we force ourselves into physical action to defend and protect ourselves from further damage and suffering. We learn to physically respond in an appropriate manner despite our fear.

In the jungle the roar of a lion makes some animals freeze with fear and the lion eats them. It makes other animals run like hell and they get away. How we deal with our own fear is quite similar. We can freeze and not do anything or we can move in spite of our fear and become free to move forward toward our dreams.

Through repeated frustration and experiences we become angry instead of fearful. We physically lash out in pain and rage at what is hurting us. We gain the ability to defend ourselves and are no longer victims. The point is reached where we use our anger in creative ways to propel us forward in the fulfillment of our dreams.

This is the development of courage, determination and resolve. “I’ll be damned if I’m going to let that stop me!,” is an example of using anger by turning it into resolve and determination.

The person that develops these traits has a magnetic charm and attraction that is emotionally powerful and overwhelming. He or she is a natural leader and takes control in emergency situations. This person overwhelms the opposition through sheer force of will and personality. Their aura radiates from them and dominates all others. When they walk into a room heads turn and notice.

It has been said there are three great stages in a woman’s life. These are the three faces of the goddess, maid, mother and Crone. For the male this evolutionary stage involves crossing the great abyss and the destruction of the false ego. For the female the great abyss is entering the Crone stage. Her childbearing years are done and she is known for her great wisdom.

In entering this stage she is finally able to develop a strong ego for herself and turn toward the achievement of her own needs and dreams. She has lived so long for other people that living for herself can be a strange and uncomfortable change. It is new and not comfortable at all.

She remembers being a maid and being a mother. Now she is once more developing a more global perspective. She understands completely what it is like to be a woman and is able to help those younger than her get through tough times. She has become Mother Nature.

She becomes a great spiritual sea that embraces all the tiny drops that are others. She is the empty space that supports the stars. She is an illusion, only real through the actions of others. She is illusion and all else is real. She supports the entire cosmos. She seeks harmony and stability. She is inseparable from life. Life is action, she is reaction. She is order, life is chaos, together they create all things.

I’m going to share a concept that is so slippery and difficult that it will take many attempts to get it right. The ultimate goal in life is to have a fully integrated belief system that allows you to live the type of life that you desire. This belief system needs to be individual and intensive. It may be simple or it may be complex.

The narrowminded person can achieve far more than the open-minded person because they don’t doubt themselves, second-guess themselves and have strong convictions and beliefs that lead them along a clearly defined and narrow path. They are quick to action because they do not recognize the possibility of very many actions.

In contrast, the open-minded person is tolerant of new ideas and slow to judgment. He or she is also slow to act or judge because of an innate ability to see both sides of an issue and be indecisive. The end result is that they at times suspend judgment and doubt their own convictions. This causes them to not be as effective in getting things done. They are slow to choose just one among the many possibilities that present themselves.

The solution lies in having a personal belief system that is complex and adaptable enough to allow success and focussed effort while at the same time simple enough to be straightforward and effective. I’m almost confusing myself just trying to share this. Our personal belief system should be as simple as possible while still allowing us to live the type of life we desire! It needs to work! It needs to get results!

Exposure to outside ideas through books and other sources is dangerous because it undermines the structure of our existing belief system. At the same time we need this exposure to outside ideas in order to grow a more complex belief system! There is a paradox at work here. We need this exposure, yet it remains dangerous to us.

The real secret to success is to find the antidote to any idea that we are exposed to. That will cancel the one-sided effect of the first idea and allow for a more balanced and genuine perspective. Once we have neutralized the power of the first idea with its opposite we can stand in the center and form a more correct judgment without being polarized.

The real danger is that any idea or opinion that we are exposed to and which we understand lodges inside of us and drains us of our energy until we find a place for it, until we integrate it. If we refuse to integrate these alien ideas and concepts they will drain our own energies and become like cancer cells that will seek to destroy us. I am trying to offer antidotes to some of the ideas and concepts that have infected our world.

Just be careful what you let into your head!

It would be foolish to deny that there are external authorities more powerful than I am. But my attitude and belief will not change! I will always seek to follow the still small voice of conscience and the Christ spirit that speaks to me from within my heart! This is the only authority that I recognize, an internal authority!

Everywhere I turn I am told to submit to one external authority after another. We are taught that external authority is our friend and that we should be humble before it. We are taught that we should fear the power of external authority whether it be God or the human collective. Now the fear of God has been replaced by atheism but that fear has merely been transferred over to the human collective. The human collective is today’s God and fear of the collective has replaced the old fear of God.

Nothing has really changed. In the past God was the external authority, now the human collective is the supreme authority. God was the mediator, now the human collective is the mediator. God was the spirit, now the human collective is the spirit. The power belongs to the collective, the world belongs to the collective, and I belong to the collective.

But none of that matters because I follow my own internal authority. I get those things that I desire through my own efforts. The still small voice of conscience that speaks to me from within my heart, the Christ spirit that dwells within every human heart, is who I really am!

Sphinx

The stony sphinx lies there in the wilderness.
Impotent sphinx, foolish sphinx.
Which riddle did the son of Oedipus solve?
How blindly and miserably he must have wept
At the murder of his father and the marriage night
With his mother.
Your swollen feet will never again limp,
No,  you will never again dare tell the riddle,
-The one in sheepskin-That one-
But I ponder it. Yes, I will complete it!
I will not allow this to happen,
Your cold stone should be listening,
Should be breathing with life.
My only desire is to raise you,
To awe you with my power and my love!
Are you willing? Are you willing?
You are! You are!
Dead sphinx, mighty sphinx awaken.
Now your eyes glow, your hair flutters.
I hold your head and kiss your mouth.
There, beat your paws upon my breast,
Live, love, in wild embrace-
Ah-
Glorious red  blood of murder!
Drops of blood are the answer
To a hundred riddles.

-Hanns Heinz Ewers

It is the emotions that make life worth living! Without emotions life is very sterile. We live for emotional satisfaction and pleasure. The most familiar forms of this energy are joy, love, and excitement. With this energy we feel alive and vital in the most positive ways. The development of these emotional energies includes honor, pride and a sense of fairness.

This is the energy responsible for the enjoyment of the fine arts, music and nature. This emotional energy allows us to experience and feel the beauty of life in all its forms. It can fill us with profound feelings of bliss and satisfaction.

We develop this energy by taking risks, doing new things and being successful at them. This is the joy of winning and the joy of attainment. When we try something new and discover we like it our world expands and we feel free and joyous.

We create this energy by doing things we enjoy and love. Curiosity, pleasure seeking, sensuality, excitement and thrills all help to bring emotional richness. If we don’t do new things we can’t develop this energy properly. It is in the joy of discovery and going on exciting adventures that we rediscover our inner child. The world really is an exciting adventure and we never know what surprises await around the corner.

As children we had an abundance of this energy. As we grew older we forgot to do fun things and gradually lost the ability to treat life as an exciting adventure. Fortunately we have the ability to reclaim this excitement by doing things we love. We can relearn how to play!

We can tell when someone has developed this aspect of themselves because they radiate a love and enjoyment of life that everyone can sense. They make us feel alive and vital.They are fun to be around!

This is the magnetic charm and attraction of this energy when it is fully developed. We all want to be around this person because they are fun and we are boring. In social circles they are the life of the party and extremely popular. They laugh a lot and have a highly developed sense of humor. These people can show us how to enjoy life!

After a person has crossed the great abyss and merged their soul and consciousness with the Godhead they are released! They are filled with the light and energy of the Godhead and the time comes for them to return back to ordinary physical existence bringing that light and energy back down to earth with them. They learn that outer reality is intimately connected to inner reality. They have achieved real wisdom and gained recognition of their own level of achievement and mastery in life. They have integrated their own spiritual nature and now they need to integrate their shadow aspect.

They become the legendary philosopher’s stone which transmutes all that come in contact with it. They become a circle whose center is nowhere and whose circumference is everywhere. They are who or whatever they choose to identify with. They learn to consciously control self at all levels of existence. They become multidimensional and reawaken their emotions and their physical bodies. They regain control over their surroundings and pursue their true purpose in life for the very first time.

Like the artist that is completely free to paint whatever they choose, these people can do whatever they choose in life as long as they allow others the same freedom. Life becomes a true joy and an expression of self through all levels of existence.

Their duty and purpose in life is to just be themselves. By doing this they transmute all that comes in contact with them and inspire people to a higher level of living through living example.

They are not all knowing or all-powerful. They are only as knowledgeable and powerful as their belief system allows them to be. This is the real secret of their power and ability. Their belief system is open-ended and harmonious at all levels. They can learn as much about anything as they wish before going on to something else.

Their belief system is all-inclusive. It includes the entire cosmos. Their belief system is entirely integrated. It is like a hologram in which each part contains every other part.

The things that cannot be comprehended are considered nonself and there is a powerful attraction between what they know and what they desire to know.

Learning is an area of intense bliss and these people will joyously spend the rest of their lives learning all they can about physical reality. They have traveled through the different levels of awareness and now they long to become creative in those levels. This is the indescribable experience of non-duality or total union with God.

There is a sense of gentle loving and sharing that completely fills them. They are the key or microcosm and the universe or macrocosm is the lock. The key is all they are capable of knowing and the lock is all that is possible to become.

As the microcosm becomes more like the macrocosm, they gain power and strength from the fabric of the cosmos. They use this creative power to achieve their ultimate purpose in life.

In their struggle to reintegrate with physical reality they are active on all planes as they develop various astral bodies, unify those astral bodies into a single soul and develop their creative powers. Physical reality continues to stubbornly resist their efforts but must that last give way and they move forward in triumph. They are exploring the mystery of change and how to achieve their true destinys.

The life of an ordinary person consists of one step forward and one step backward in a zero-sum game. That is why it is so hard to get anywhere without compromising who you are or what you desire. The people who have attained this level use both sides of their nature to make each step move forward in an unstoppable manner as they move toward the desired goal. The shadow self and the spiritual self-work together toward a common goal under the direction and rulership of the true human ego.

True empowerment comes from a fully integrated belief system and lifestyle that harmonizes both the physical and spiritual sides of human nature. This fully integrated belief system is unique and individual to each one of us. We can read other authors, study other systems and philosophies, but in the end the only thing that matters is our belief system and how well we have integrated it.

Each one of us is a prisoner of our own beliefs, bias and experience. The only way to break free is through outside help! To think outside the box we need exposure to thoughts that are not our own. Sharing our thoughts with others and listening to their thoughts is an important function that we do for each other!

The same thing can be said for books that we read, movies that we see, classes that we take and the new things that we do. But something needs to be said that’s very important. If anyone tells you that they have the answers that you are looking for alarm bells should begin ringing out once! No one has your answers! They only have their answers!

The best that they can do for us and that we can do for them is to stimulate thought, challenge assumptions and help us to clarify our positions so that we understand ourselves better and help them to understand themselves better. We act as catalyst for each other! A true catalyst causes change but remains independent of that change and is not part of the final outcome.

I don’t want anyone to believe the way that I do. What I’m trying to do in these posts is challenge people to think about things that they probably haven’t thought about before! Once they have thought about these things they can decide for themselves what their own belief is. That’s what I’m trying to do for you and that’s what others have done for me!

My freedom only exists when I take it for myself and own it! When I do this I become master of my own destiny. The freedom that the people talk about is hollow because they are asking the government to grant it to them. It is not recognized that freedom is essentially self liberation and always will be! We can only have as much freedom as we take for ourselves.

When the government gives you freedom, it is simply giving you something that it doesn’t have the right to give. Your freedom does not belong to the government, it belongs to you and you must take it for yourself!

This is the difference between self liberation and emancipation. The people that are screaming for freedom today are screaming to be set free! They want the government to emancipate them! What they really need to do is act as if they were free and then they would be free! If you don’t act as if you were free, you are not worthy of it and you wouldn’t act as a free person even if the government said you’re free. Don’t kid yourself!

A person who is set free is only a person who has been freed! To be emancipated does not mean that you are free! Because freedom is in the heart and in the soul and in the mind and in the attitude! The government can set you free but if you don’t set yourself free then it is all a lie!
