I don’t know if it’s been clear … but for the last few weeks I’ve been trying to explain the what’s … why’s … and wherefore’s of the mind … why it’s so powerful … how to understand this mental power that we all have and must learn to use and control via the precepts of the Universal Mind … and make it the most vital tool of Soul Itself as we walk the Lower Psychic / Metaphysical Worlds … how we give it the preferences we hold … how to revise them … how to make all of this work *for* you rather than continue to allow it to run out of control and bury ourselves in limitation, stress, and mystery.
If it’s mental … this entire approach … taught for so long under various names … simplified … watered down … chopped up … then taught again … and again. We learn something very old … as new again.
To dismiss it all simply leaves the individual to wander on their own … surrounded by the masses, the traditions, the conventional teachings … for as long as one wishes to walk that path under the endless vibrations of same. It should be no surprise to anyone … continued ignorance … a simple un-knowing … is responsible for many, many hundreds of thousands of lifetimes … and the way out is to take control and live the lifestyle … fully aware … responsible for Self … training ourselves to work *with* life … even at the Lower Psychic / Metaphysical Worlds mental levels … and then eventually … work our way beyond these worlds into the true Home of Soul.
One can disbelieve … but that changes nothing.
The endless array of differences we find amongst all of us … the masses … ourselves included … it could be said that these differences and variations are due predominately to the various levels of understanding of the principles of the mind … of understanding just what the tendencies of the mind are and why it works as it does … and learning how to get oneself into harmony with the precepts … or … how to use the mind under these guidelines. There is total ignorance of this … then a very slow discovery … and even slower practical use … often one issue at a time until the overall practice is understood and applied … and then there are lifetimes of power and control over ones life … mostly in the realms of materiality … until such time as Soul Itself makes Itself known more and more … and one begins to move beyond mind and on into the realm of true spirituality … or working with Spirit on and within the various levels of It … rather than working solely with the mind. Slowly … e begin to work with Spirit more and more … which is a vastly different approach … and upon the mind less and less.
Man is differentiated from plant and animal by its degree of intelligence … and the learning of using this intelligence in dealing with and using all plans and modes of action … thought … emotion … and the physical body itself … and then adjusting himself to his environment and not the other way around … trying to work against the laws of nature by making his environment change to suit his own purposes. We spend lifetimes trying to do just this.
We point our fingers at … and find fault with … every facet and nuance of life … holding it to blame for what we do not understand. It’s always someone else’s fault … or something else to blame … when it is *we* that do not understand … and hence … do not learn … getting stubborn in our stances because we just *know* that what we are doing is right … even when it proves out to be wrong.
We are safe in such a stance … for we are always the victim … and even worse … the justified victim.
It’s time to work out of that stance.
More tomorrow.
