Still Waters …

After giving it a bit more thought … one thing I will say … the true move into the Pure God Worlds could never be “categorized” or “labeled” as a “cloud of unknowing” or a “not knowing” … or any similar term. These terms are given to those who managed to stop the mind … then have no clue where they “are” in it all other than in a quiet vacuum … and so … give it a lofty label that sounds impressive. These labels are those philosophies or religions attempts to claim that are farther along than they actually are … and yes … this is part of the game too … the mental game. Again … not being derogatory here … just being honest. When one truly advances into the Pure God Worlds … they can then look back and recognize the mental attempts to believe they are more advanced than they really are … which is a point I brought out a bit more in the above post. In other words … the “cloud of unknowing” and the position of “not knowing” would be akin to being in the Pure God Worlds … and not the other way around … and these … and similar positions … would be the epitome of the belief that stopping the mind is the ultimate … which … one has to be able to do at least to a slight degree before that realization is reached and then uncover that there is *much* more … beyond.

Hopefully the next 2-3-4-5 posts will bring out a bit more on this.

Working into the Pure God Worlds demands a distinct procedure … or set of procedures if you will … given by a distinct level of authentic mastery. Mind wants to make and take shortcuts … leading to all sorts of tangents on the path. Realizing that certain signposts are necessary to authentically distinguish “being there” verses “being here” … those signposts are provided as personal inner experiences that are vividly and honestly experienced. Until one truly advances into such levels … they are walking preliminary steps … which … we all are.

All of this just portrays just how volatile, tricky, and deceptive mind can be … while at the same time … fully acknowledging the honest benefits of understanding mind to be the tool that it is … within its own realms.

On we go.
