Become all you can become by raising yourself higher on the Tree of Life

Raise your vibration to grow… as a person

The key to growth is noticing… The key to raising your vibration is awareness

“Dear Astrology Guy: Please tell me why I have to work so hard — meditate, reflect, read, analyze, poke, prod, investigate — to discover truths about myself that must be obvious to others. Why is it so hard for me to see where I need healing and where I need to let go? Why is it such an ordeal to grasp what is interfering with my wholeness when I can quickly pinpoint what other people’s issues are? -Overworked Virgo.” Dear Overworked: I’m happy to report that you will soon be offered a gush of revelations about who you are, how you can heal, and what strategies will best serve your quest to minimize your anxiety. Are you prepared to absorb some intense teachings? For best results, make yourself extra receptive.

Now, if you are like me, you want to raise your vibration! You don’t want to wait for the “right alignment of the planets” to be able to heal, or minimize your anxiety, get guidance, etc. You want to do it now, if possible. You can if you concentrate on raising your vibration instead of all the details.

You want to take an active stance, an active position in the matter.

Soul Correction: Forget Thyself. Condescension, superiority

Update 7/16/2023

As I was writing an article I realized something I had never seen.

I am energized by resistance. I am a 34, aka Forget Thyself.

I have a slew of incidents in my life where I not only resisted, but fought tooth and nail. Continue reading “Soul Correction: Forget Thyself. Condescension, superiority”

The Guru Myth, Its Destructive Power and A Cure.

Sophie’s notes: I do not necessarily agree with a lot what’s written in this article, yet it’s a good piece of writing, and I want you to read it.

I will add some notes when I have time… And some vibrational measurements of the people he mentions… Patience, it’s coming.

The Guru Myth, Its Destructive Power and A Cure. (Now w/Videos!)

Via Julian Walker ¹ on Feb 28, 2012

The Word and The Myth.

The word ‘guru’ has taken on a life of its own in Western pop culture. The media and advertising talk about ‘stock gurus,’ ‘marketing gurus,’ sports gurus’ and on and on – the characterization being someone who has a particular insight into their chosen field and is trusted by others as being able to solve certain problems or provide a highly effective strategy on how to be successful.

We know of course that the word originates in India and simply means ‘teacher.’ In India one’s schoolteacher, dance instructor, parent – really anyone in an authoritative or instructive role might be considered your guru in their particular domain.

But when the word is used in a spiritual context it has a very specific meaning and is located within a very particular Hindu belief system. A guru in this sense is a cut above ordinary human beings. What distinguishes the guru from us mere mortals is that they are ‘enlightened’ or ‘self-realized.’

Basically the claim is that there are certain very special people who have crossed a very specific threshold in their spiritual awareness – and they know the ultimate truth about the nature of reality.

Confessions Of An Empath

Somehow this article got lost… I don’t know how… it disappeared from the site… Weird. This is a “reprint”

Confessions Of An Empath

I didn’t know that the feelings I experienced weren’t only mine until a few months ago. I was 63 years old. I had never heard about the phenomenon, so I never suspected.

I had a long history of living like a phoenix… burned and crashed and then reborn from the ashes.

My Mother, the empath

I hear that the curse of being an empath is inherited, and upon further looking into the path, confirming it with muscletesting, my mother carried the cursed gene.

Did she show any signs of being empathic in ways that it would be a good thing? Not at all. Instead she showed the aspect of empaths that the unaware empath demonstrates: being the trash collector of other people’s badness.

Acidity, Cholesterol, Spirituality. fixing is stupid

Fixing: the number one way the mind leads you astray. If you are a fixer, know that fixing is stupid

Background: One of my favorite books is Colin Wilson’s Mind Parasites. I read it a few times, and it was, maybe, the first time I was alerted to the fact that the mind may not be your friend. Continue reading “Acidity, Cholesterol, Spirituality. fixing is stupid”

Can You Learn Remote Viewing, See Energies, See Auras, Get Guidance? Seeing things that you can’t see?

There is gold in them hills… Remote viewing, guidance, energies…

People are fascinated with remote viewing. They want to learn remote viewing to see ahead in time, and they want to see stuff that they are not supposed to see, or can’t see.

I think that people have a thousand and one reasons, so they buy these courses, to learn remote viewing.

A friend of mine also bought two learn remote viewing courses, and I have borrowed them. I didn’t think it possible, but I managed to see the stuff that I wanted to see. He could not.

This was a year or two ago, and it has always bothered me why one person would see something and another would not. Why one person would see auras, be able to predict your actions, read your mind, see balance, see energy, and another, the majority would not.

So, this morning I was experimenting.

Is life all it’s cracked up to be? it is not fair!

If I asked you to observe your face without changing it first and without going to the mirror, could you do it?

One of the most useful things I have ever read, that if you use specific muscles in your face to produce a micro-expression, your emotions will follow. Continue reading “Is life all it’s cracked up to be? it is not fair!”

What is enlightenment? Are your gurus, enlightened?

What is enlightenment? Are the gurus, sages, mystics of the day enlightened? If their enlightenment were a sex organ, how much would they have to play with?

Enlightenment is a big word. It is a huge accomplishment.

Enlightenment is a way of being that is unburdened by the mind, the concerns society imposes on you. It is a simple way of being joy, rejoicing with life is the normal.

Just like with many other things in the domain of being, the nature of reality is such, that you can only see the tip of the iceberg of enlightenment. Continue reading “What is enlightenment? Are your gurus, enlightened?”

Encounters with a lion… you can remain fearless, and do nothing… like you should.

This is pretty much what this spiritual work is about: don’t try to change anything.

How to use the Avatar State audios? Don’t change anything. Just observe. Just bring awareness to the behavior, the feelings, the thoughts, the inclinations that are the focus of the activator.

Once you bring awareness to anything undesirable, it will go away by itself.

When you resist or want to change anything, it will go underground, and will run your life more powerfully than before… You won’t have any life left of your own at all.

Many of you are there… there is not much I can do for you.

How is mindfulness meditation different than other kinds of meditations – a Quora question I answered

I sometimes participate in Quora, by answering questions. I like to be challenged, it is the spice of life, and I enjoy being forced to think, solve problems, get out of my little box.

I don’t enjoy reading the answers of others, though it gives me a cross section of what so called intellectuals think and teach and live… Sad story.

I thought you would enjoy reading my answer:

Mindfulness meditation is, in fact, an oxymoron of some kind. Meditation’s purpose is to lead you away from the mind. But the reason some people use this expression, because what they want to say “awareness meditation” and they don’t understand that awareness is not a mind-function, awareness is a consciousness function. Awareness is bigger than the mind, and it is also bigger than you.
