End of Chapter 1

This is the end of the blog. This blog has been mostly of knowledge and information, and some opinions. Well, I feel I have had some realizations that hold all of my past experiences in place, but also destroyed all of my unclear points. As you have seen on my last post, I talked about separation, and how that was the only problem in existence. There is no separation. As long as there is some separation, there is still enslavement.

If you now understand that the source of all fear and pain is separation and inequality, than you must now examine your own beliefs. We are all forgetting about ourselves, and are always looking for something bigger and separate from ourselves. We love the tyrant God. We love the Trinity. We love nirvana, we love Hindu deities. We love enlightenment and ascension.


You can see that these all run under separation as attainment and hierarchies. It makes things so complicated through separation! "Oh, please help me, I am a miserable sinner. Oh God, you are not me, you are greater than me. Please help me. I will worship you and do as you tell me to." We also have enlightenment, ascension, we have the Chart of the Divine Self. Yeah, all of this seems lovely and wonderful, but do you see any equality in any of it?

What happened to "all men are created equal?" Do we want to ascend so we are bigger than others? Do we want to be enlightened so we know more than others? Forget it. If we are all one, than how can someone ascend and keep the oneness and equality. It's just enslavement.

If we are depending on something else, it is still subject and object, it is still duality and separation. "The Selfless Self" suggests that we are being selfless by giving to others, but that is still separation. We are all, one, equal, and the same. We must stop listening to our mind of thoughts, feelings, and emotions, because they always change- thus separation. There is no God separate from you. There is no Holy Spirit talking to you.

There is only God as you.

Separation

Separation is the only problem in existence. Whatever comes from separation will not express reality. The core framework of human beings is based on separation, which is the source of all discord. From our everyday experiences to our religious belief systems, separation is always involved. Why is separation so harmful? It brings attention away from the only thing that undoubtedly exists: yourself.

Separation in no way can help. Yeah, you could say that America separating from the motherland is a good thing, but corruption could have never happened if there was no separation in the first place! To see any difference between two things leads to being subject to dualities. Duality never brings happiness because it is the rule that if you feel up at any time, you will consequentially feel down later. You cannot be eternally happy.

What is important to realize is that separation does not exist. If it truly did, then we could not escape our painful, stressful lives. But is actually impossible for unity to not exist. How could life itself be a horrible thing? We only forget that we are alive when we are dwelling in the mind of separation. When we step into a state of being, we feel our aliveness. And only then does everything become one and equal.

One thing that people do in attempt to escape their distress is become religious, but they are likely to be stuck in separation. It still takes them away from their awareness of being, and their attention is fixed to an object perceived outside themselves. God is the main example of delusional separation. How so? When we think of God, we do not tend to think of ourselves. We think of something out there, separate from us. But how can a power outside of you, out there, serve as a foundation for yourself, who is within, who is right here?

There is an aspect of Jesus that I believe to be true expression of his message. Where he speaks of unity and equality, of right here, instead of separation. The Kingdom of God is within you. I and the Father are one. He was speaking to Jews in a way that fulfills their law, so he must use the word God. He is saying that he is God, and people believe it. But you are that God as well! He has said it! Forget about the God who is there and not here. That view of God is the equivalent of believing in Zeus, or the "teapot orbiting the sun." That is the tyrant God seen in parts of the Bible. There is no evidence. It is separation, and only brings about fear.


Speaking of fear, whenever you practice prayer or meditation, do not even think of anything separate from you. This could bring about the fear of demons or personal guilt and inferiority. A weak presence comes about from the belief of a Father, Son, or Holy Spirit outside of you. It pulls you away from the reality, which is only that of being. The awareness of unity and equality comes from realizing that you are everything. There is no evidence of an existing God or hell through belief or faith, but only a manifested thought form of that belief. Perfection comes when you finally realize the "I AM THAT I AM" that you are, with no separation or division involved.

Wisdom of the Living Luminaries

I took notes on the documentary called "Living Luminaries." Some of the bulletpoints below are actual quotes from the movie, and some of them are summarized points. Enjoy.

• God has the answer to every problem the moment it occurs.
• We need to become the people who have the wisdom to let God work through us.
• Don’t believe yourself or someone else, but learn to listen.
• Joy is found in the present moment, when you’re truly listening.
• Lies exist only because of the belief that they are true.
• “I” is an illusion. You are not nothing, but you are no-thing. You are a formless presence.
• Courage must replace fear.
• Freedom comes from detaching from everything.
• Self-centeredness brings unhappiness. Praise and blame, loss and gain, pleasure and pain, and fame and shame are all forms of self-centeredness.
• Become aware of the fundamental harmony of your being.
• We must be independent from circumstances so that we are no longer the victim.
• Happiness is a moment-by-moment choice, and can be attained along the way.
• The higher values commune with each other: Beauty, Truth, Love, Freedom, Justice, Equality, and Peace are all higher values that will bring you happiness.
• Learn to harmonize with your lower, animal nature by uniting it with your higher nature.
• Our life is a journey to significance, not to success.
• Do not worship or follow others, but find your Self and be your Self.
• Give people more respect than you expect for yourself. Everyone is suffering.
• True happiness comes from within, and not from outer circumstances.
• We must stop making distinctions between others and ourselves.
• We have to reorient and restructure the way we live our lives.
• We must love others before we can understand them.
• Materialistic desires will never bring us perfect happiness.
• Addictive patterns pull us away from peace of mind. You will always be annoyed if you look at what separates you from others.
• Yesterday is history and tomorrow is history. All that we have is today.
• Those who fail to plan will plan to fail. Silence is our only way to plan.
• Focus is very important in everything we do.
• God is not a separate deity or entity, but the all-encompassing force of Life and Love.
• There is one ego, appearing as many.
• Forgiveness does not pardon sins and make them real; it sees there was no sin. Only then are your sins forgiven.
• Have patience, timing, kindness, honesty, and inner peace.
• There is no sin but a mistake
• We create our experience of reality, but that doesn’t make it reality.
• What you perceive is the realm of effect, but consciousness it the realm of cause.
• Suffering is psychological, and implies an unhappy story.
• You do not have to identify with your thoughts. You are not your mind.
• Entering the present Now brings awareness of the aliveness of your body and your surroundings.
• We do not understand statements without first experiencing them or having some relation to them.
• Happiness is being, living and letting live, and loving yourself.
• We must find the timeless presence of “I” behind the “story of me.”
• The moment you’re asking, “am I happy,” you’re not.

The Principles of Healing

On a podcast from "A Cloud Does Not Put Out the Sun," they were discussing Jon Mundy's 25 principles of healing. I wrote them all down, simplifying and shortening a couple of them. Here they are:

  1. One illness is not harder to heal than another.
  2. The healer’s sole responsibility is to accept atonement for himself.
  3. You heal by seeing past the patient’s ego and sick beliefs, as well as your own.
  4. You heal by realizing that you don’t have to change the patient.
  5. You heal by seeing the patient’s body and its sickness as unreal.
  6. To heal, it is necessary to understand the mind’s purpose in making the body sick.
  7. To heal, it is necessary to understand the fear of healing.
  8. The patient is not a victim of a dangerous world, but is the commander of his situation, the dreamer of his dream.
  9. The proper aim of healing is not the body, but the mind.
  10. The patient is the same as you and one with you.
  11. The patient is your equal.
  12. You are not in a position to direct the process or judge the outcome. The Holy Spirit is the only healer.
  13. You do not give the patient something from outside of her; you merely help her connect with the wholeness already within.
  14. There is something in you that will tell you what each brother needs. You must not demand, decide, nor sacrifice- only listen and you will find the answer.
  15. Do not doubt the power in you.
  16. Healing occurs when, in a holy instant, you step outside your normal frame of reference.
  17. You heal by forgiving the patient. The process that takes place in this relationship is actually one in which the therapist, in his heart, tells the patient that all his sins have been forgiven him.
  18. You heal by aiding the patient’s own forgiveness processes.
  19. Your true perception is what heals, not your behaviors, your words, your hands, or the energy you move around.
  20. Calling on Jesus is part of the healing, but not because this is a magical invocation.
  21. You heal through your happiness. Those who attempt to heal without being wholly joyous themselves call forth different kinds of responses at the same time, and thus deprive others of the joy of responding wholeheartedly.
  22. Healing others is not a sacrifice- it is the road to happiness. There is a tendency to assume that you are being called on constantly called on to make sacrifices for those who come.
  23. The healers reward lies not in demands or ingratitude but in the giving itself, which reinforces the healer’s own healing. An unhealed healer waits for something in return, and so he cannot give nor heal.
  24. If symptoms persist, trust that the patient receives the healing- do not repeat it.
  25. Self-doubt and self-concern represent a reliance on the false self.
All of the principles are simple- they are 25 different ways to say the same thing. This is basically what they say: There is no order of difficulty in healing, and you heal by knowing that you are the same, equal, and one with the patient. The mind is the focus in true healing, and the body is the focus in magic.You must forget the random judging of the ego and the belief in sickness, and instead be fearless and doubtless. You must not expect a result or make any demands (like money) or you will be unable to heal. You must understand that there is wholeness within each one of us, and that you must listen to the Holy Spirit that is within you if you want to perceive correctly. You know that we are not the victims but the commanders of our situations, and that you are able to heal through forgiving your false self and the false selves of others.

Teachings of the Gospel of Thomas

Below are significant teachings from the Gospel of Thomas. Some of them are similar to those from the New Testament, and others are completely new. Enjoy.

· God’s Divine Rule is within you and you are everywhere. When you know yourself, you will be known, and you will understand that we are one.

· There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed.

· What goes into your mouth will not defile you; rather, it’s what comes out of your mouth that will reveal you.

· The dead are not alive, and the living will not die.

· Fortunate is the one who stands at the beginning: that one will know the end and will not taste death.

· When you make the two into one, and when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and when you make male and female into a single one, so the male will not be male and the female will not be female… then you will enter the Kingdom.

· You see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but you do not see the log that is in your own eye. When you take the log out of your own eye, then you will see clearly enough, to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.

· I stood in the world and found them all drunk, and I did not find any of them thirsty. They came into the world empty, and they seek to leave the world empty. But meanwhile they are drunk. When they shake off their wine, they will open their eyes.

· If a blind person leads a blind person, both of them will fall into a hole.

· The lilies neither toil nor spin.

· When you take your clothes off without guilt, and you put them under your feet like little children and trample them, then you will see the son of the living one and you will not be afraid.

· Be passersby.

· A servant cannot serve two masters.

· Fortunate are those who are alone and chosen, for you will find the Kingdom. For you have come from it, and you will return there again.

· The new world you are looking forward to has come, but you don’t know it.

· You have disregarded the living one who is in your presence, and have spoken of the dead.

· Congratulations to the person who has forgiven and has found life.

· Look to the living One as long as you live. Otherwise, when you die and then try to see the living One, you will be unable to see.

· I am the one who comes from what is whole. I was given from the things of my Father. Therefore, I say that if one is whole, one will be filled with light, but if one is divided, one will be filled with darkness.

· I disclose my mysteries to those who are ready for my mysteries. Do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.

· Those who know all, but are lacking in themselves, are completely lacking.

· Seek the treasure that is unfailing, that is enduring, where no moth comes to eat and no worm destroys.

· How miserable is the body that depends on a body, and how miserable is the soul that depends on these two.

· Seek and you will find.

· When you make the two into one, you will become children of Adam, and when you say, ‘Mountain, move from here’ it will move.

· Whoever drinks from my mouth shall become like me. I myself shall become that person, and the hidden things will be revealed to that person.

· God’s Divine Rule is like a person who had a treasure hidden in his field and did not know it.

· Whoever is living with the living One will not see death.

Desteni Productions

Desteni Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/DesteniProductions
Desteni Website: http://www.desteni-universe.co.za/

I have encountered a very interesting organization over the internet called "Desteni," which interviews people experiencing the afterlife. On every video of it's youtube page, you see the same girl, but apparently different people. She calls herself "Winged," while all the people who she claims to channel go by their names they had on earth. There are currently about 500 of their videos posted on youtube, from many, many different people. But is it really how they claim it to be, or is it just the girl?

First, it is necessary to observe her life-situation. Winged says that when she was 16, her mother died, and her father quickly married a new woman named Erika, only 8 months later. Winged says that Erika later became a controlling woman, having to keep everything perfect in the house and getting constantly angry at Winged. At one point, Winged had to leave her family because she no longer felt comfortable living with Erika. She then lived and worked at a coffee shop, while temporarily stumbling into drugs and alcohol. One day, there was a customer that Winged met at the coffee shop, who she refers to as "Eagle," and he said, "your mother is proud of you." Winged burst into tears, since she was always thinking of her mother ever since she died, even though it seems impossible that Eagle can actually contact the dead. Eagle later offered a job to Winged, and she accepted without even knowing what she was asked to do. Winged was then introduced to how to interact with the dimensions, helping demons to realize who they really are, and cleaning away all unnecessary forces and systems affecting human beings. Once she learned how to leave her body, she was able to explore the dimensions while other beings can use the body as a portal so they can be interviewed.

Through watching the Desteni videos produced by Winged and Eagle, one can find out that an interdimensional portal was created in 2004 that allows all beings to be interact and be incorporated into a single existence. Winged happens to be the first on the planet to make use of this, where beings were now able to use her body fully instead of just its head and neck. That's their explanation of why this is such a new thing to all of us. Well, does that mean it is true?

The Desteni videos show many different people being interviewed, like Aleister Crowley, Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Muhammad, Jesus, Satan, interdimensional beings, demons, systems and animals. You can tell that they all act different, explain it in their own way, and sometimes have unique voices (search for Lilly and Steve Irwin- then you'll know what I'm saying). Still, is it all made up?

Here's the breaking point: there is so much to learn from in the videos that there's no way it can be all a lie. They constantly mention the fact that we are "all one and equal," and that we are truly Life. Polarities, energies, emotions, feelings, separation, relationships, and thoughts are all systems. Systems are self-created illusions and can be erased, but they can become real and live through forgiveness and free choice, which is what Satan did (watch his video for more info). However, all beings that think they are systems are actually Life, including humans, demons, and interdimensional beings. This is what is being stated through the Desteni video series.

Now all of this information is in line with everything I have said on my blog, including my stance on demons, illusions, the afterlife, and reality. What is said on those videos can be very helpful if we are only to listen to them. And really, do you think that 500 videos can be made with false information and accurate imitations of people that have recently died? Those who try too hard to deny it instead of listening to the advice will likely be expressing these above explained systems. I encourage everyone to search for the videos from Winged and any others that seem interesting to you, and watch them without prejudice. Also realize that if you take a holy text or a channeled text, you are never completely sure what its source actually is. Nevertheless, you will surely learn something, just as you might with the Bible, A Course in Miracles, or any other similar document.
