When we stand in front of a mirror and look ourselves in the eye...what we see before us is the result of trillions of years of existence...all wrapped up in one neat package...with all our faults and all our talents and all our attitudes.
So what will we work on today to improve our quality of life? Will it be the sexual problem? Or will it be the rage problem? Or will it be the fear problem?
Whatever our state of mind, might be, for each of us, is right inside our minds at this moment...there are no pieces stuck in other dimension or wandering around in some past lives millions of years ago...we have brought the whole package along for the ride...maybe too much to sort out all in one go...but we can work at it one step at a time.
There are probably an infinite amount of ways, we might stumble upon, for the solution to each one of our inner struggles. There is no 'one fits all' in this shop.
Trying to convince me to use one method over and above another is like trying to convince me to change my favorite flavor of ice cream. What works for me might not work for others.
So find what works for you because, should we not, at least, like the choice we make?
So now we have another choice and it's called Scientology...so what? Millions of people are quite spiritual and happy and living beautiful, attitude and problem free lives, and they have never even heard of anything called enlightenment...never mind Scientology.
When the lifespan of this information and thread has run it's course...there will be those who will be off to get audited...I guess...and those who will move on to seek another solution.
Such is life
Take care

Is this not me as I stand in front of the mirror today, the one who stood outside of time and space and made the decision to join the game. The one who stood with others as we confabulated this journey. Is this not me, the one standing in front of the mirror who sees her face change from a puritan male to a Grecian goddess. Is this not me who in her past arrogance stood above the rest in a position of worship, who strode the earth with her lover Shiva and who then embodied the rage of Lakshmi? Is it not I that stood hot tears streaming down her face, hand in hand with her king, looking out across the northern sea, as she saw before her the beginning of the end of magik on her sacred earth. Is it not I who was beaten tortured and made to obey. Is it not I who stood silent when I should have spoken. Am I not the betrayer and the betrayed.
Is this not me, sad today because we squabble over methodology? Is this not me today in my aging body looking for ways to maintain my vital energy? And in front of this mirror is it not I that made the choice to leave behind my own personal happiness to find the elusive answer of “Who am I?”. Who made the choice to remove the veil and who has realized that this choice has consequences…
So I am aware of the this one, standing naked and bare before herself that I am not my body, I am not even my soul, I am more, I am ageless and timeless. I am source and I am you as you are me.
The real question is what am I becoming today? What am I directing today, where am I going today? Have I too succumbed to the weight of the world or will I prevail a spirit free.
A being can be happy, have a great attitude and live a beautiful life without being free. I choose freedom above these ephemeral things. I choose this because I know I have been enslaved.
There are no perfect choices, just choices. A way has been shown out of the prison planet, so for all who have dared I salute you and honor you in your transparent honesty.
I find this thread fascinating in that it calls us to reexamine our own understanding, to grasp again that we are the weavers of our reality (we have been co-opted!) and then to actually reclaim our power and create the change we want to see.
