    This is why the group things works so well, not everyone is busy.
    So there is always some help available from somewhere.
    That's also why there is no need to feel disappointed and blame someone for not performing, or living up to one's expectation.

    The longer that one is inside of or riding with or within another, the greater the impression of who they are, as this comes through the continual flow of their being, not the exploration of their history or what made it be. even then, the impressions are very general. In that space, no judgement may be possible, at least from this one,as we all carry issues and wounds, colorations, things that made us who we are. To carry some coloration or impart some reflected color or issue with what is within another... would reflect more on this one, than anything else. That such issue with what is found in another is all this one and not other.

    we know this or try to live it in the 3d time based model,and it is fundamentally true in the dimensional level. It is a thing or thought or understanding in clarity that one can have or live in either. The point is, to this one, that any clarity that this one has can only serve to make the overlay or direct connection of another's avatar possible, as opposed to near impossible, if one was not clear of self and then in understanding of the mechanisms of the basic function of the avatar. Like a key being of the correct enough shape to match the functions involved.

    Outside of that, then we can get to the basics of psychic connectivity where things are externalized and all warts can and tend to remain, as imagery worn and projected, and it is a simple wearing of what we see ourselves as, combined with what other's basic wiring can make of that, as far as impressions go. It is a double reflection. We get a reflection of ourselves and the world, that we build. Then the similar system of other, that interprets this mixture. this is probably connected to what the doctor meant, a few pages back, when he said it is all reflective energy.

    Predators, as we call them, go for basic commonalities, with regard to attempting herding, as the avatar injects into these impressions while one is still immersed in the 3d matrix, as all of this has to pass in and out of the hindbrain of the avatar, while one is incarnated. That is their trick.... and our individual and collective issue. You can only be herded, or grouped in activities via the commonalities of avatar design, which at the base level, are fear, desire, and so on. You know this to be true in the 3d world, and in the dimensional world, while incarnated and utilizing an avatar, this will be true there, as well. It is the knowing of what is going on that makes all the difference. the fears and desires can also break concentration and conscious connection to control of situations in those realms, which is a big thing in their toolbox of tricks and methods.

    We also do this on our own, for example,when in the impression of flying, in realms. We get excited and then break the channel via the avatar injected emotional overtone of the given excitement and the given excitement's emotional complexities, whatever they be. this is the why and the necessity of removing the given complex unconscious aspects of our individual creation, which was created throughout our youth and lives (and given genetic origins). Those autonomous aspects of bodily or avatar function to do work for us, in some ways, but they are programs that need to be cleared, if we do not want them to intrude on/in our access and work/motion/control of our given astral self in the given realms. Recall that the avatar is a doorway and a filter or set of programs that run autonomously (while incarnated). To remove our base issues from self is to give ourselves clear path in astral realms or dimensional spaces, while incarnated and connected to the avatar.

    Thus, as we clear ourselves, the doorway and the energetics available to integrate with become bigger, more potent, more manifold, more complex,and more universal. If not, we are constricted into something resembling a form of an animal response/connection mode. In that case, we would be filtering ourselves through our unrealized complexities, not our clarity.

    Once self knowing begins and the flaws in the self become apparent, and the denial of such flaws is suspended, a new phase begins, and is accompanied by emotions of guilt and shame. Other than getting stuck in those feelings there is really not much wrong with them, as they provide more fuel for the purging process.
    What comes to mind here are the words of Groucho Marx:
    "I don't wanna be a member of a club that will have me as a member."

    So in the end, there's nothing to save... it is only the knowing of what is going on... and then what we think, speak (write) and do along the way? or is that adding nothing to something? I enjoy reflection. Good Post Carmody

    "I don't wanna be a member of a club that will have me as a member." Interesting... but could that apply to a village? or even a forum? On the one hand I see Groucho's point and on the other hand I prefer not to be alone yet on the third hand I would like to "see the change I want it to be" and on the 4th hand I seek my cave. Quadra-polar perhaps?

    just normal in your given complexities and views/filters. everyone has got some. there is no universal truth that encompasses all. commonalities, yes...but universal single state-allness? That would be really boring, to say the least.

    Now... what I spoke on this one's understanding of overlay, and some other bits, which is the origins of the above post.

    Consider the idea and reality of demonic or nasty 'possession'. Very specific types of possession and how they integrate with the given avatar. Does this make more sense now? nasty, brutish, and so on. The level and type of connection to the avatar. An intelligent and more open aspect/contact might not be of that type. Project fears to create and maintain fears to create the doorway and avenue for possession and to keep it up and running. The blood brother rite was also about sharing psychic connectivity. Drinking of blood? DNA connectivity, and so on. I tend to dream the deaths of the animals I consume, if I eat meat....

    I've covered all of this before, on the forum, in other places.

    Here and now.

    I have had a very challenging 3 months.

    Its been awesome and down right debilitating at times but now when i stand i feel the strength of ten men inside me.

    I see the benefit of genders getting back to basics, i see the inference of original sin when the a sexual one was born into two. O how this shows me the plight of being sepperate, never have i understood so intensely the meaning of getting back to being One.

    All you chauvenists and femminists go live together and re integrate, we need your example right now.


    Its 1 am, my brother sleeps on the couch watching Apocalypto,

    My lady friend sleeps snugly in my cubby house i built for us :-) ( every one should have a cubby house and bury treasure in the back yard )

    And i. . . well i cant help but think of my extended family :-)
    so i canmot sleep ( that and i drank a can of V, silly ant man! Ugh )

    We all write, we write beczuse inspiration and hope tells us to pass on a message. Everything we do here is helping us. Even those of you who arent even registered, yes you! Yeah i know you are there :-) , not sure if you want to be on the map yet? Either way is totally fine

    I just cant help but feel so full and beaming when i know what i can relate will help someone to feel that tiny bit better.

    Its all worth it

    Thank you

    Glad you repeated it here anyway. Maybe these words can have more impact now, than they could earlier on.
    Larger readership now, as well; and some have read it before but are glad for the refresher course.

    I was looking for this, as it is hard to find. The issue with parasites. And the ego-body. One and the same or not? The parasite is near identical to the ego body, so it can certainly hide very well. Distract from the issue at hand and make sure attention is elsewhere. Thus, clearing the ego can also clear parasites.

    Is the parasite for real, or does the ego-body wish us to externalize and give itself more room, more capacity to remain hidden? Logically, if there be a parasite, the last thing it would want, is the clearing of the self.

    Regardless, the path forward is the ego body taming. Which resulted in the strong attack on Scientology and ultimately it's twisting...for in it's original incarnation... it outlined a functional methodology to get there, to the one answer that was functional.


    A friend expressed it to me this way. He said, consider that you reach a fork in the road. Down one side is a completely honest place, and down the other branch, is a place that the beings there, will lie in the face of any situation.

    And at this crossroads, is a person. What is the one question you can ask that person, that tells you which way to go, to get to the honest place?

    "Which way is home?", is the correct question, as the truthful one will point to home and the liar will point to 'not home'. Both pointing to the same place.

    In the same way, you have to find the one action that clears both dilemmas. Which in this case, is the clearing of the self.

    Being of help can make one euphoric.
    Once people know that helping someone in need works better than other intoxicants
    and as long as they don't force their help on those who are not ready to receive it
    it's a win-win situation and only good can come from it. Lets all drink to our HELP.

    when they are split between the desire of mingling with the gods that run high society, yet know that they are not ready for such exclusive levels of existence, and therefore would ruin the exclusive atmosphere.

    Hence you have the whole status scene of watches, cars, designer labels, cosmetic surgery, teeth whitening.
    But it also applies to the world of the spiritual paths, the insider gossip about this Guru or that Guru is plenty of testimony to the same game being played there.
    Inner circle cliques exist everywhere, all levels.
    No matter how high someone climbs up that social ladder there is still another rung higher up.

    In the 3d world that can mean that a man who has just spent $15 million on decorating the interior of his private Gulfstrem jet plane crashes into deep depression because he found out that some competitor spent $10 million more.
    It's called dick measuring in that world.

    Quote Can't see the little Angel picture, so I'll add this until it's fixed.
    The little Lady tells me that she loves her Daddy..
    Aw, WCBD, you are the best, thanks!! I think I fixed it?



    ...so this is not EXACLTY here & now (was yesterday), though I suspect something VERY similar is happening right this second

    Hmmm...this is what I perceive,
    Whereever angel sits or lies, Angel seems to be up against a barrier and looking towards the light
    whether by the window or behind bars.
    What does that say about me?

    That's because she is my slav...I mean pet

    Kidding...I think there's definitely something to it. I was thinking about the same thing when I received the pic!

    But maybe this information will change that perception: the sliding glass door is a true barrier...she will not be allowed out of the house until I can trust her to not run away (out of fear of her being eaten, not out of attachment...if she shows she can survive as an outside bunny and needs to be there, well maybe I will reconsider).

    Anywho: that barrier there is a methophorical one--she could jump it (& often does) if we didn't leave her a little zone to go in and out (which we do), it is just a little rodent pen to give her her own space from our "mother hen" hundred pound sheppard mix Summit (who can and does bend over to sniff and give kisses to his often annoyed friend--obviously if he wanted to, he could make short work of it, likes he does to doors that trap him inside when we have to confine him--he has attachment issues, but that is another story for a time when I get a chance to show off pics of him)

    It's cool watching them interact, she is getting over her skittishness, and the gentle giant is starting to learn that not everybody needs to be herded to where he thinks they will be safe. So he gets the whole house, she gets that corner of the living room (at least for her food, litterbox, and space for herself--she gets behind that couch and just to the left is her recliner--to uncomfortable for humans but a perfect "hutch" for angel). She has made the doorway of that room another barrier for herself. She will come out and play, go hang out on her curtains by the glass door, and go right up to the threshold of the open space/doorway to the rest of the house when she smells something yummy (kitchen is next room over, she can smell basil from outside, I think).

    So my thoughts were how domesticated animals are sooooo much like us. Imposing artiifcial borders, gaining a (false?) sense of security from (our own?) space, respecting these artficial constructs. I am fairly certain it would take her a loooong time to build up the courage to go outside even if we left the door open. She was kept in a cage I am pretty sure without ANY reprieve for her entire life, which may have been 2+ years, but was at least. It is has been so fun watching her warm up, to not only her space and freedom, but also the family (my girlfriend has 3 dughters--50% of the time, i have two boys full time...if you count Summy as my son, we have a full "bunch" )

    Anyway, that pic kills me...I still haven't seen her (or ANY rabbit) ever lay like that, she looks like a toy! My bunnies always kept their front legs in front of them...

    And at this crossroads, is a person. What is the one question you can ask that person, that tells you which way to go, to get to the honest place?

    "Which way is home?", is the correct question, as the truthful one will point to home and the liar will point to 'not home'. Both pointing to the same place.
    I know that riddle, but slightly different.
    There are two people at the crossroads, one a compulsive liar and the other a compulsive truth teller.
    The question that produces the right answer if you don't know who is lying, or telling the truth is: "what would the other guy answer if I asked him which way is home?"
    That way both come out with the truthful answer, as the liar would be compelled to twist the truth the truth teller would give.
    You then choose the opposite road of the one they pointed at.
    But maybe your example was even trickier, as far as trick questions go....

    Don't overthink it. That's how the weakness is created.... (but don't underthink it either! )

    That's how my mind kept me pedaling until I was exhausted. The point was looking in the mirror, noting that I was still mentally pedaling, and nothing was happening. Obviously that's not the way..as it is an issue of time and nothing getting done, just the pedaling. Which leads to more pedaling.

    My 'Pluto Square', as an act... was moving past it... via simply 'getting it done'.

    I send balancing energy out and ask, Lisab,
    to align with her free choice to balance mind, body, and spirit.

    Hi guys. Would love some reiki myself if somebody wouldn't mind. I booked a days holiday off work as I have lots to do but have woken up with a monstrous headache which I can't shift. Too shaky to reiki myself and am always receptive to outside help. Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, I got there...maybe it was Jorr that told me because the voice said "home is everywhere" and " all is well."
    Or it was my very own thinking mechanism, as thinking is also my way out of whatever traps I find myself in.
    Affirming,
    Denying,
    Reconciling.
    Next....

    The way to use the thinking mind is to go to option three, instead of being stuck in two.

    I find this observation incredibly profound.

    Personally, I can accept borders as a protection shield one moment and as a cage the next.
    That perception then determines the next event that comes at me, or not.
    So is it a choice between battle or boredom?
    Any other alternative?
