'If' desire and attachment keep us coming back here..

Well, this is the thing...if it is human nature to attach ourselves to something...fine...
work with that nature, I say.

Attach yourself to something* that will not bring you back 'here'...
if that be your desire... to progress on from 'here'.


Same as I believe, when meditating...if it is the nature of the Mind to have thoughts, fine...
then have the thoughts that will lead you to your Goal....not those silly thoughts.


*Contemplating this should tell you what that is.

It all depends where you are at, in your journey.
As long you have desires you have issues to work through.
And you will come back. (not entirely correct)
There are those controllers of this reality who would applaud you for your writing.
As long you have attachments, and are fully engaged in your mind, there is no way out for you of this reality.

So are you saying no attachments at all would be more of value to break free from this reality?

Because if you are that makes sense to me more so.

Hi John,
Well, I can only give the advice I would give myself...maybe others can help, too.

Well, first, and you've heard me say this before ..you must know 'the enemy', the negative thoughts...know that
they are nothing, they have no power...
except that which you give them...so, laugh at them...do not give them any power
....it is the same as a Christian would say...don't listen to the devil.

Then, you don't have to think 'positive thoughts', necessarily.
Do you believe in God...a Spirit that is within everything and is everywhere?
I think you do...you know how you are talking to me?
Talk to 'Him', your Creator, Father, Friend.

I know you meditate...when negative thoughts come in...and I know you don't want them...Talk to God.

Example: "God, I know You're there, I'm having a hard time here...please, help me with these crazy
thoughts that take me away from where I want to be ...at peace."
Now, see this isn't exactly forcing positive thoughts making an imbalance...
it is an honest plea to your Higher Self or to the All That Is...for assistance.

While you are talking to the Divine...where are the negative, troubling thoughts?
Gone.

Not to get all Christian on you personally, but Paul did advise to...pray unceasingly.

If you have some other method that works, do that...it doesn't seem it from our talks, tho.
Worth a try for a week isn't it?

I agree.
I might say instead tho, 'you have desires to fulfill'.

But, my belief system is.. as long as you are looking at something else,
you can not fully engage with the purity of heart with your 'Goal'...
so fulfill these desires , get them out of your system....or
truly see them for what they are ...fill in your own definition.

Letting go is the most effective way to leave this reality.
Letting go is equal to forgive.

Sure you need to work through them. Having said this, there are entities on this planet who are here for thousands of years and always find an other way to engage themselves in this game.
Just as an example, an angelic entity who chooses this reality as a path of development, in average takes less then half the incarnations then those who come from an oversoul. More likely a third.

Yes letting go fully, but do you see that letting go fully, can be staying here in this reality in this way?

Meaning you often speak of having to leave but leave to go where? Do you wonder if in body shifting is all here and now through a whole connection of dimensions you often speak about?

yes, i follow...of course for your higher self it's not a desire in the true sense of the word because emotion doesn't enter into it. We don't have the language to really do this justice, but it all has to begin with your conscious awareness that it desires to no longer return here.
