THE PROBLEM OF EVIL - 4

....

Is TIME an illusion?

The universe is made up of infinite separate 'Nows'?

Enjoy the moment?

"Where has it come from, this Evil?"

Heaven and Hell come from inside each and every individual?

To get Heaven, we tune out of the selfish self and tune in to the Divine within us?

"People loved the darkness more than the light."


The darkness is inside us?


Charlotte Haigh, who used a hallucinogenic drug to look inside her mind.

Journalist Charlotte Haigh traveled to Peru for an 'ayahuasca retreat'.

Psychedelics Helped Me Accept Not Being A Mum | Grazia 


Charlotte Haigh had heard that the hallucinogenic drug ayahuasca can help you to find solutions and see life in a new way. 

Having taken some ayahuasca, and some chacruna, the visions began.

She sees a small sad child. She realised she was seeing part of herself.

She becomes a giant godess

She turns into a jaguar.


She is on a rain-whipped beach, trailed by three shivering, sad-eyed children. 

She recognises that they're the babies she lost in successive miscarriages while trying for 
a longed-for child with her then-husband.

She cuddles them but they're still cold, so she puts them into a sack and searches for a sanctuary. 

When 
she open the sack again, there's just a pile of ashes. 

Then a huge sun bursts the clouds open and she sees a woman in the sky, smiling and cradling the children. 

She is overwhelmed with a sudden sense of peace.



Charlotte Haigh is priestess to the goddess Rhiannon with the Magdalene Mystery School in Glastonbury.

How do we get rid of darkness?

...

Can we change 'reality'?

The video below suggests that we can.

...

Professor Kater Murch, at Washington University, has found that by knowing the future outcome of a particle, its state in the past is altered.



Tune in to kindness?



Tune in to the Heaven within you?

...

In the ideal game of golf, you are not struck by lightning, and, you do not get a hole in one at every hole.

The Taoist idea of yin-yang suggests that if your mind can think of 'good', it can also think of 'evil'.

However, if you are in tune with the TAO (the holy spirit), and thus avoid all extremes, all is well.

Hinduism and Buddhism (and Christian Science) suggest that by applying mind over matter, suffering can disappear.

...

Apparently, the Jesus story got somewhat altered.

Apparently, the crucifiction story got added.

"The earliest of the manuscripts of the New Testament which are still in existence, do not date back beyond the middle of the fourth century AD."

(Catholic Encyclopedia, op. cit., pp. 656-7).

The World's oldest Bible is the Sinai Bible.

"When the New Testament in the Sinai Bible is compared with a modern-day New Testament, a staggering 14,800 editorial alterations can be identified."


...

The real Jesus reportedly taught that if we want to achieve bliss, we should tune in to the Holy Spirit, love our enemies, see our own faults before we see the faults of others, heal the sick, feed the hungry and treat our fellow citizens as our brothers.

A lot of the stories in the Old Testament, such as the Adam and Eve story, are borrowed from the Sumerians.


...


"In dreams you create entire worlds, environments, situations, and even other people.

"You interact and converse, create conflict and resolutions, get emotional and involved..."

In the parable about the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve created problems for themselves.

Adam and Eve were fine, so long as they were tuned in to the Divine.

When they decided to do their own thing, they had problems.


Lyndon Nadel writes:

Our brains offer us the opportunity to choose the destiny that we witness.

We pick and choose every moment, which dimension we head down in our finite lives.

You are chosing between the events you wish to witness in this life.

Because every senario has has a different ending, and every moment leads to a different dimension...


THE CAT IS ALIVE AND WELL!


Professor Kater Murch (above) has found that by knowing the future of a cat, its life in the past is altered.

Professor Kater Murch, at Washington University, has found that by knowing the future outcome of a particle, its state in the past is altered.

Things are made out of tiny 'particles'.

According to the scientists, when you come a cross a 'particle' it does not have a 'fixed state' - until your mind decides what its 'fixed state' will be.

In other words, if you come across Mr Schrödinger's cat lying very still on the grass, the cat is neither dead nor alive - until your mind decides what its 'fixed state' will be.

Let us imagine that you have a very strong feeling that the cat will be alive and well next year.

Then the cat is currently not dead.

The future has affected the present.



Christians believe that things go better when you tune into the Holy Spirit.

The Taoists would call the Holy Spirit the Tao.

When you are tuned in, the cat is not dead.

What are the essentials of Taoism?


Some Taoists and Christians and others believe that bliss can be achieved when:

1. You believe that, when tuned in to the Heaven within you, life works out for the best.

2. You are compassionate

3. You are moderate (Avoid extremes)

4. You are humble (The selfish ego is switched off)

4. Everything is in balance

5. Being tuned into the Holy Spirit or the Tao or whatever you want to call it, you go with the flow (You are not battling against the Holy Spirit or Tau)

6. You avoid the use of force; you avoid pitting your will against the universe.


Eventually the cat will die, but it will continue in the Spirit.

HEALING; PARALLEL UNIVERSES; MIRACLES

Jesus found the healed man in the temple and said to him, "Sin no more, so that nothing worse may happen to you."

The England football team's former coach Glen Hoddle once argued that disabled people are disabled because of events in a previous life.

Hoddle - disabled


Jesus healed a blind man.

Jesus's disciples asked him, "Who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

"Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus.

Jesus did not condemn the woman caught in adultery, but he instructed her to sin no more.


K'tut Tantri (1898–1997), born Muriel Stuart Walker, was a Scottish American woman who claims that she was tortured by the Japanese while living in Japanese occupied Indonesia.

K'tut Tantri believed that in a previous life she had been a torturer.

"Each lifetime has a focus, a purpose and affords a soul a variety of lessons... 

"When the lessons are learned, and sometimes they are not, the soul moves onto the next level of awareness and continues until it can grow enough to leave the cycle of reincarnation."



Thirty years ago, German doctor Rüdiger Dahlke and German psychotherapist Thorwald Dethlefsen wrote a book called The Healing Power of Illness.

The book argued that sick people aren't just innocent victims of disease but are responsible for the illnesses they take on.

Dahlke says: "We have to get to know what that disease means in our lives, what it wants to tell us. A disease presents a task and when we perform the task, we heal the body."

EXPLAINING GOOD AND BAD EVENTS.


Falkland Road.

David Allan writes:

"When you experience a 'bad' event, try to imagine what possible good could come out of it -

"Even if it's many years from now or several cause-and-effects later, or even if it just makes you more empathetic or prepared next time.

"Not convinced?

"Look back on something bad from your past and connect the dots between that event and real happiness that came later as a direct result of that breakup, layoff, sickness etc."

Good and bad


Port au Prince, Haiti

Avoid the extremes, if you want to avoid very 'bad' events.

Jesus advised us to take the path which is straight, and avoid the extremes on either side.



"The idea that 'challenges help us to grow', that 'we develop as a result of the hard things that happen to us', is the classic hero's journey."

Good and bad

"You can find potentially bad in what seems good. 

"My favorite example of this are lottery winners. Lottery winners are shockingly unhappy not long after their greatest wish comes true."

"Once you move past 'good and bad' you become less concerned about outcome; you become more accepting to how things evolve naturally."

Good and bad


West Java

From The Tao Book and Card Pack by Timothy Freke:

When an old farmer's stallion wins a prize at a country show, his neighbour calls round to congratulate him, but the old farmer says, “Who knows what is good and what is bad?”

The next day some thieves come and steal his valuable animal.

His neighbour comes to commiserate with him, but the old man replies, “Who knows what is good and what is bad?”

A few days later the spirited stallion escapes from the thieves and joins a herd of wild mares, leading them back to the farm. 

The neighbour calls to share the farmer’s joy, but the farmer says, “Who knows what is good and what is bad?”

The following day, while trying to break in one of the mares, the farmer’s son is thrown and fractures his leg. 

The neighbour calls to share the farmer’s sorrow, but the old man’s attitude remains the same as before.

The following week the army passes by, forcibly conscripting soldiers for the war, but they do not take the farmer’s son because he cannot walk. 

The neighbour thinks to himself, “Who knows what is good and what is bad?” and realises that the old farmer must be a Taoist sage. 

Northern Cyprus.

"It’s not that the farmer is unengaged in life. It's not that he is unable to be happy or sad. 

"But he has a greater perspective.

"He sees the bigger picture.

"He know that he can't stop things from happening, but he can control how he reacts to them.

"And it's often not the experience that matters as what you do with that experience."

Good and bad



Jesus advised us to take the path which is straight, and avoid the extremes on either side.

Blessed are the meek: for they will inherit the earth. (5:5)

Blessed are the merciful: for they will be shown mercy. (5:7)

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they will see God. (5:8)

The point to remember is that if we follow the correct path, everything is hunky dory.

...

Buddhists believe in taking the The Middle Way, avoiding extremes.

The Taoists believe in avoiding the extremes.

The taoist Lao Tzu said:

The great Way is easy, yet people prefer the side paths.

Be aware when things are out of balance. Stay centered within the Tao.

Stay Centered - A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything.

"Another way to 'stay centered' is expressed by the Golden Mean, which Aristotle described as keeping to the beneficial middle and avoiding extremes."

In philosophy, especially that of Aristotle, the golden mean is the desirable middle between two extremes, one of excess and the other of deficiency. 

...

BUT, if Jesus avoided the extremes, what about the crucifiction? 

Was that a story added on to the New Testament, to tie in with Jewish myths?

According to theologian Gunnar Samuelsson, Jesus did not die on a cross.

There is always a suspicion that the 'official story' is not entirely true.

There is a suspicion that the 'biography' has had untrue bits added, and that there is a lot of 'spin'.

"Late in the third century B.C. Cleomenes, king of Sparta, embarked on a revolutionary policy of cancellation of debts, redistribution of land and emancipation of the helots (slaves). 

"He was driven out of Sparta... 

"In the story preserved by Plutarch, Cleomenes and twelve friends have a last supper together on the night before his death. 

"He is betrayed to his enemies... 

"His dead body is crucified. 

"A prodigy occurs after the crucifixion; and the people of Alexandria call him a 'hero and son of the gods'." 

The Legend Of Jesus Christ - Text-only version

So, the 'real Jesus', who taught that one should tune in to the Holy Spirit, may not have been crucified?

Let's look at Taoism.
1. The Force

Consider Luke Skywalker and how Obi-wan Kenobi taught him about "the Force".

Luke had to avoid being distracted by things like fear and anger.

He had to learn about spontaneity.

On one occasion, Luke was trying, without success, to avoid laser blasts from a 'remote'.

When Obi-wan Kenobi placed a helmet on Luke's head so he couldn't be distracted, he easily deflected the remote's laser blasts.

The idea is that when you are aware of the 'Tao' and feel 'the force', you can flow with it, and the right action appears for itself, spontaneously.

(More here: http://www.exn.ca/starwars/taoism.cfm / http://www.belief )


The economy does not work when things are out of balance.

2. What are the essentials of Taoism?

(http://www.godquest.org/taoism.htm / Http://www.crystalinks.com/taoism.html)

Some Taoists and Christians and others believe that bliss can be achieved when:

1. One is compassionate

2. One is moderate (Avoid large numbers?)

3. One is humble (Avoid large numbers?)

4. Everything is in balance (+ X - X rather than +X - 1000X?)

5. One is in tune with the Holy Spirit or the Tao or whatever one wants to call it. One goes with the flow.

6. One avoids the use of force; one avoids pitting one's will against the universe.

..

The Christians talk about God’s spirit.

God nourishes us.

The Taoists talk about the Tao being a force that flows through everything. 

The Tao nourishes us.

3. The Tao and Yin and Yang:

When the Tao is in balance one can be happy. (+ X - X rather than +X - 1000X?)

There is Yin and there is Yang (just as there is black and white, up and down, male and female).

'When they are equally present, all is calm. 

'When one is outweighed by the other, there is confusion and disarray.

'The Tao surrounds everyone and one must listen to find enlightenment.'

True Taoism does not get bogged down with theology. "The Tao that can be named is not the true Tao."

Taoists love their enemies. "I am good to the man who is good to me, likewise, I am also good to the bad man."

4. Wu wei is action through inaction; ‘a practice of minimal action, particularly minimal violent action’. 

Don’t overdo the antibiotics or the pesticides. 

Don’t bomb your enemies.

Consider the lilies.

Don't force yourself or others to be compassionate. Be spontaneous.

Genuine love is spontaneous love.

"The Master does not see evil as a force to resist, but simply as an opaqueness, a state of self-absorption that is in disharmony with the universal process, so that, as with a dirty window, the light can't shine through. 

"This freedom from moral categories allows him his great compassion for the wicked and the selfish" - Stephen Mitchell

"The Tao regulates natural processes and nourishes balance in the Universe. 

"It embodies the harmony of opposites (i.e. there would be no love without hate, no light without dark, no male without female.)"



5. Henry C K Liu wrote in the Asia Times about Taoism.

(http://www.atimes.com/atimes/China/EH01Ad01.html ).

Where does evil come from?

There can be no ‘good’ without ‘evil’.

"Controlled quantities of the bad can be good. 

"Excessive amounts of the good can be bad. 

"Poison kills. But when handled properly, it can cure diseases. 

"Without poison, there can be no medicine.

"To employ poison to attack poison is a Taoist principle."

The secret is to avoid extremes.


Americans carrying out torture in Vietnam.

How should we act?

We should avoid producing unintended consequences.

"Not taking premature or unnecessary actions keeps all of one's options open, so that the most appropriate action remains available. 

"Actions always elicit reactions. 

"Each action taken provokes reactions from all quarters that, taken together, are always more powerful than the precipitous action itself. It is the ultimate definition of the inescapable law of unintended consequences."

"To follow the dao (path) of life is to go with the natural flow of life and to avoid going against it.

"The ethical theories of Taoism lean toward passive resistance, believing that evil, by definition, will ultimately destroy even itself without undue interference.

"Yet it would be a mistake to regard Taoism as fatalistic and pessimistic, instead of the ultimate sophistication in optimism that it is.

"Only by not applying effort can one achieve that state in which nothing is not attainable effortlessly.

"A little ambition is a good thing. Total elimination, even of undesirables, is an extreme solution, and it is therefore self-defeating.

"Life is a prison from which one can escape only if one does not try to escape. It is the desire to escape that makes a place a prison, and the desire to return that makes it a home. Home is not where one is, it is where one wants to return."

6. Taoism and other religions.

The following comes from: http://www.jadedragon.com/archives/tao_heal/teach01.html

From Taoism: happiness comes from helping others; wealth comes from giving to others. 

"Love the world as yourself; then you can care for all things."

From Buddhism: "Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, and you will be filled with joy." 

Buddha: "See yourself in others. Then whom can you hurt? What harm can you do?"

From Islam: "There is a reward for your treatment of every living thing." Muhammad also said: "None of you is a believer until you like for others what you like for yourself."

From Christianity: "Do unto others as you would have them do to you."

PHILO

Unknown commented - 

As far as is known, the globalist idea of one world government ruling over all and intervening everywhere, was first proposed by the first of the famous Jewish philosophers, nearly 2000 years ago.

Philo of Alexandria (c. 15 BCE to 50 CE), also known as Philo Judaeus or Philo the Jew, wrote in Greek and lived in Alexandria about 500 kilometres away from where his contemporary, Jesus of the New Testament, lived and preached in Palestine. 

Philo's wealthy brother Alexander the Alabarch was the city's tax collector for the ruling Romans, keeping a share of taxes he squeezed from commoner Egyptians and Greek and other merchants. 

Tax collectors in that era were often seen as oppressive, corrupt extortionists, and the role of Jews such as Philo's brother helped fuel what is recorded as the earliest anti-Jewish pogrom in history, when multi-cultural Alexandria exploded in civil disturbances in 38 CE. 



Philo then travelled to Rome to seek intervention and protection for Jews, arguing they were loyal agents of ruling Romans. 

In Rome, Philo saw the influence of Stoic and Greek philosophy there. 

After Philo's return, he wrote clever essays identifying the God of Stoic and Platonic and Greek philosophies, with the Hebrew God of the Jewish-authored texts, setting the stage for Greco-Roman Christianity as developed by his fellow Jew Paul (c. 5 CE - 62 CE). 

In one of those works, circa 40 CE, 'On the Unchangeableness of God', aka 'Quod Deus Immutabilis Sit', in section 176, Philo wrote of "that Divine Plan ... to the end that the whole of our world should be as a single state, enjoying that best of constitutions, democracy." 

Screenshot of Loeb Classical Library text here: https://i.ibb.co/HPgJSvk/Philo-Judaeus-1st-globalist-Quod-Deus-176.jpg 




Philo had learned from Aristotle that 'democracy' was the form of government most easily influenced by those engaged in emotional media ('demagogues'), and permitting sway by small groups ... thus good for his co-ethnics. 

Philo's nephew, Tiberius Julius Alexander, the son of Alexander the tax collector, turned away from Judaism altogether and became the imperial ruling prefect of Egypt, even taking part with Emperor Titus in the 70 CE Roman siege of Jerusalem and the burning of the Jewish temple.

G K CHESTERTON -



G K Chesterton is the author of the famous Father Brown detective stories.

'Three Father Brown stories are often cited as evidence of anti-Semitic shadows. 

'Yet what are these shadows? 

'A Jewish French millionaire owns a hotel frequented by a club of English oligarchs. 

'A Jewish atheist scientist in France is accused of giving the recipe for a potent Noiseless Powder to Germany.

' A copy editor cowed by his commercial publisher replaces the word “Jew” with “Alien.”'


...
Father Brown

'Chesterton had lifelong Jewish friends beginning at St. Paul’s School. 

'He criticized British Fascism for its anti-Semitism.

Chesterton championed the common man, the democrat, the underdog, the French peasant, and the orthodox Jew suffering from Czarist pogroms.

'He blamed Jews as a class for “forcing” imperialist wars. 



Gilbert Keith Chesterton, 1874 – 1936

G K Chesterton's “The Man Who Was Thursday,” tells the story of a young poet, Syme, who becomes a policeman in order to pursue an international circle of anarchists who have embarked on a nihilistic war against civilization.

'He discovers that the entire circle of anarchists is really made up of undercover policemen, including the sinister-seraphic Sunday, who is, somewhat mystically, both the ultimate anarchist and the leading cop...'


Dario Gabai

What to believe?

'Dario Gabbai, who died in March 2020, became famous for claiming to have been a Sonderkommando who helped gas Jews at Auschwitz. He was exposed by Dean Irebud in 2012 as a fraud.

'Gabbai, born in Thessaloniki, Greece in 1922, is listed in the Yad Vashem archives as having been "murdered" at Auschwitz three times.'
 

GK Chesterton

Chesterton as an early supporter of France's Captain Dreyfus (an alleged traitor who was Jewish) but Chesterton turned into an anti-dreyfusard.[61]

Chesterton faced accusations of antisemitism.

In the Marconi scandal of 1912–13, senior ministers in the UK's Liberal government had secretly profited from advanced knowledge of deals regarding wireless telegraphy. Some of the key players were Jewish.[63] 

Chesterton was among the most vocal critics of the key players.

G. K. Chesterton - Wikipedia


'In a work of 1917, titled A Short History of England, Chesterton considers the royal decree of 1290 by which Edward I expelled Jews from England, a policy that remained in place until 1655. 

'Chesterton writes that popular perception of Jewish moneylenders could well have led Edward I's subjects to regard him as a "tender father of his people" for "breaking the rule by which the rulers had hitherto fostered their bankers' wealth". 

'He felt that Jews, "a sensitive and highly civilized people" who "were the capitalists of the age, the men with wealth banked ready for use", might legitimately complain that "Christian kings and nobles, and even Christian popes and bishops, used for Christian purposes (such as the Crusades and the cathedrals) the money that could only be accumulated in such mountains by a usury they inconsistently denounced as unchristian; and then, when worse times came, gave up the Jew to the fury of the poor".[65][66]

G. K. Chesterton - Wikipedia

Chesterton was a keen Christian.

'In The New Jerusalem Chesterton dedicated a chapter to his views on the Jewish question: the sense that Jews were a distinct people without a homeland of their own, living as foreigners in countries where they were always a minority.[67] 

'He wrote that in the past, his position: was always called Anti-Semitism; but it was always much more true to call it Zionism. ... 

'My friends and I had in some general sense a policy in the matter; and it was in substance the desire to give Jews the dignity and status of a separate nation. We desired that in some fashion, and so far as possible, Jews should be represented by Jews, should live in a society of Jews, should be judged by Jews and ruled by Jews.[67]

G. K. Chesterton - Wikipedia


Hitler's Jewish Spy: Baron von Rolland

'Chesterton openly expressed his abhorrence of Hitler's rule almost as soon as it started.[68] 

'As Rabbi Stephen Wise wrote in a posthumous tribute to Chesterton in 1937:

'"When Hitlerism came, he was one of the first to speak out with all the directness and frankness of a great and unabashed spirit. Blessing to his memory!"[69]

Chesterton and his wife.

'In The Truth about the Tribes Chesterton blasted German race theories, writing: "the essence of Nazi Nationalism is to preserve the purity of a race in a continent where all races are impure."[70]

'The historian Simon Mayers points out that Chesterton wrote  against the concept of racial superiority and critiqued pseudo-scientific race theories, saying they were akin to a new religion.[62] 

In The Truth About the Tribes, Chesterton wrote, "the curse of race religion is that it makes each separate man the sacred image which he worships. His own bones are the sacred relics; his own blood is the blood of St. Januarius."[62] 




'Mayers records that despite "his hostility towards Nazi antisemitism … [it is unfortunate that he made] claims that 'Hitlerism' was a form of Judaism, and that the Jews were partly responsible for race theory."[62] 

'In The Judaism of Hitler, as well as in A Queer Choice and The Crank, Chesterton made much of the fact that the very notion of "a Chosen Race" was of Jewish origin, saying in The Crank: "If there is one outstanding quality in Hitlerism it is its Hebraism" and "the new Nordic Man has all the worst faults of the worst Jews: jealousy, greed, the mania of conspiracy, and above all, the belief in a Chosen Race."[62]



'Mayers also shows that Chesterton portrayed Jews not only as culturally and religiously distinct, but racially as well. 

'In The Feud of the Foreigner (1920) he said that the Jew "is a foreigner far more remote from us than is a Bavarian from a Frenchman; he is divided by the same type of division as that between us and a Chinaman or a Hindoo. He not only is not, but never was, of the same race."[62]


Reinhard Heydrich, the mastermind of the Holocaust, is believed to have been Jewish. Walter Schellenberg in his Memoirs (p. 207) writes: "Canaris told me after Heydrich's death that he possessed proof of Heydrich's Jewish ancestry."

'In The Everlasting Man, while writing about human sacrifice, Chesterton suggested that medieval stories about Jews killing children might have resulted from a distortion of genuine cases of devil-worship. Chesterton wrote:

"The Hebrew prophets were perpetually protesting against the Hebrew race relapsing into an idolatry that involved such a war upon children; and it is probable enough that this abominable apostasy from the God of Israel has occasionally appeared in Israel since, in the form of what is called ritual murder; not of course by any representative of the religion of Judaism, but by individual and irresponsible diabolists who did happen to be Jews." [62][71]



'In Eugenics and Other Evils, Chesterton attacked eugenics as Parliament was moving towards passage of the Mental Deficiency Act 1913. 

'Some backing the ideas of eugenics called for the government to sterilise people deemed "mentally defective". 

'He blasted the proposed wording for such measures as being so vague as to apply to anyone, including "Every tramp who is sulk, every labourer who is shy, every rustic who is eccentric, can quite easily be brought under such conditions as were designed for homicidal maniacs. That is the situation; and that is the point ... we are already under the Eugenist State; and nothing remains to us but rebellion."[76]

WHERE HAS 'EVIL' COME FROM?


Professor Kater Murch, at Washington University, has found that by knowing the future outcome of a particle, its state in the past is altered.

Olive Farmer 10 December 2019 at 11:43

Our human story, our journey, is a thing of great sadness.

It is a story of a species in the hands of a force of Evil that controls our actions and our interactions at every level in every way.

Hierarchy, money, faiths, laws, governance derive from this Evil and shape our human society in its wicked image.

We, our human species, live in an utterly false and inhuman reality.

Something better awaits us.

Where has it come from, this Evil?

Not from the meek, not from the dutiful, not from the normal, not from the children we once were long ago before we were assaulted by fear, but from a small number of creatures that have dominated our world for centuries and whose actions can only be termed 'inhuman'.

...

Anon 10 December 2019 at 22:27

"Where has it come from, this Evil?"

Heaven and Hell come from inside each and every individual?

To get Heaven, we tune out of the selfish self and tune in to the Divine within us?



Are lots of people attracted by sadism?

"Fifty Shades Of Grey captured the imaginations of so many readers that it has been named the bestselling book of the decade.

"The trilogy by EL James took first, second and third place in a list of the UK's top 50 most popular books of the 2010s.

"The series, which was made into a successful film franchise and which charts the raunchy relationship between businessman Christian Grey and protagonist Anastasia Steele, sold 11.2million copies in total."

"People loved the darkness more than the light."


...

In the ideal game of golf, you are not struck by lightning, and, you do not get a hole in one at every hole.

The Taoist idea of yin-yang suggests that if your mind can think of 'good', it can also think of 'evil'.

However, if you are in tune with the TAO (the holy spirit), and thus avoid all extremes, all is well.

Hinduism and Buddhism (and Christian Science) suggest that by applying mind over matter, suffering can disappear.

...

Apparently, the Jesus story got somewhat altered.

Apparently, the crucifiction story got added.

"The earliest of the manuscripts of the New Testament which are still in existence, do not date back beyond the middle of the fourth century AD."

(Catholic Encyclopedia, op. cit., pp. 656-7).

The World's oldest Bible is the Sinai Bible.

"When the New Testament in the Sinai Bible is compared with a modern-day New Testament, a staggering 14,800 editorial alterations can be identified."


...

The real Jesus reportedly taught that if we want to achieve bliss, we should tune in to the Holy Spirit, love our enemies, see our own faults before we see the faults of others, heal the sick, feed the hungry and treat our fellow citizens as our brothers.

A lot of the stories in the Old Testament, such as the Adam and Eve story, are borrowed from the Sumerians.


...


"In dreams you create entire worlds, environments, situations, and even other people.

THE CAT IS ALIVE AND WELL!


Professor Kater Murch (above) has found that by knowing the future of a cat, its life in the past is altered.

Professor Kater Murch, at Washington University, has found that by knowing the future outcome of a particle, its state in the past is altered.

Things are made out of tiny 'particles'.

According to the scientists, when you come a cross a 'particle' it does not have a 'fixed state' - until your mind decides what its 'fixed state' will be.

In other words, if you come across Mr Schrödinger's cat lying very still on the grass, the cat is neither dead nor alive - until your mind decides what its 'fixed state' will be.

Let us imagine that you have a very strong feeling that the cat will be alive and well next year.

Then the cat is currently not dead.

The future has affected the present.



Christians believe that things go better when you tune into the Holy Spirit.

The Taoists would call the Holy Spirit the Tao.

When you are tuned in, the cat is not dead.

What are the essentials of Taoism?


Some Taoists and Christians and others believe that bliss can be achieved when:

1. You believe that, when tuned in to the Heaven within you, life works out for the best.

2. You are compassionate

3. You are moderate (Avoid extremes)

4. You are humble (The selfish ego is switched off)

4. Everything is in balance

5. Being tuned into the Holy Spirit or the Tao or whatever you want to call it, you go with the flow (You are not battling against the Holy Spirit or Tau)

6. You avoid the use of force; you avoid pitting your will against the universe.


Eventually the cat will die, but it will continue in the Spirit.

Jesus found the healed man in the temple and said to him, "Sin no more, so that nothing worse may happen to you."

The England football team's former coach Glen Hoddle once argued that disabled people are disabled because of events in a previous life.

Jesus healed a blind man.

Jesus's disciples asked him, "Who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

"Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus.

Jesus did not condemn the woman caught in adultery, but he instructed her to sin no more.


K'tut Tantri (1898–1997), born Muriel Stuart Walker, was a Scottish American woman who claims that she was tortured by the Japanese while living in Japanese occupied Indonesia.

K'tut Tantri believed that in a previous life she had been a torturer.

"Each lifetime has a focus, a purpose and affords a soul a variety of lessons... 

"When the lessons are learned, and sometimes they are not, the soul moves onto the next level of awareness and continues until it can grow enough to leave the cycle of reincarnation."



Thirty years ago, German doctor Rüdiger Dahlke and German psychotherapist Thorwald Dethlefsen wrote a book called The Healing Power of Illness.

The book argued that sick people aren't just innocent victims of disease but are responsible for the illnesses they take on.

Dahlke says: "We have to get to know what that disease means in our lives, what it wants to tell us. A disease presents a task and when we perform the task, we heal the body."

Can we change 'reality'?

The video below suggests that we can.

It seems people are catching-up with the “Block Theory” of our current state?

...

Considering that we, and everything, is really 'space', at the nucleic-level, and doesn't exist until it's observed, there are many paradoxes?

Even then the physical nucleic ‘structure’ apparently vibrates, so there would be many frequencies that if not in-phase, would generate many ‘universes’ to ‘phase’ in and out of?

I never really understood Mouni Sadhu’s comment, “As I sit here outside of time, [in the ‘Now,’] looking at my watch...” until recently when many sources ‘re-found’ the ‘Now’ concept.

To be totally present in the now, devoid of thought, it’s postulated earthly-time ceases?

This makes me wonder at Tolle...
