How Does one Prove to Themselves the Existence of Jesus Christ?

Dog Poet Transmitting.......

“The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue.”

“The more one gets to know of men, the more one values dogs”.


I am writing this on Good Friday and wondering why it is not called Bad Friday. According to the tradition being celebrated, not much good happened on that day when The Sanhedrin orchestrated the physical departure of The Avatar. I need to mention the players because some people like to blame it on The Romans. On a higher note, the whole thing was orchestrated to the end achieved (still in progress).

People who do not know Shit from Shinola but who will eat either one if it is served to them warm, will tell you there is no historical record of any Jesus Christ, or Jesus of Nazareth as he might have been known back in the time there is no historical record of his presence in. Do I need a historical record? No! I do not. Do you? That's nothing I know nor even wonder about. Why is this so about me? Why do I require no evidence of his presence? I got plenty of evidence.

I got St. Francis. I got St. Augustine. I got the documented lives of saints that I accept as being valid as opposed to the nimrods, granted sainthood because some corrupt pope wanted to increase both donations and control in certain areas. I've got the remarkable books written by illuminated souls from across the reach of time. I've got the thoughts of Paramahansa Yogananda on the matter, of course, we must always consider what happens to an organization once the master has gone.

Sri Ramakrishna, it is said, experienced enlightenment in every faith and said they were all the same. It is obliquely alluded to here but I have seen it more directly stated elsewhere. Here is a rare availability of the Gospel of Ramakrishna. It is an amazing work written by a sincere disciple. The actual book doesn't start until page 84. Ramakrishna also had experiences with Jesus Christ and somewhat to say as well. It is said that he had every siddhi that there was and never used any of them once. Then he transferred them to his disciple, Swami Vivekananda before he passed. Vivekananda was remarkable in his own right and wrote some of the clearest books on the spiritual path; among them, the wonderful “Raja Yoga”. Here is that profound book. I like to give gifts on Easter more than on Christmas but I tend to bow to authentic traditions so long as I am not bowing to the enemy of humanity.

If men such as these believed in Jesus Christ that is all the proof I need of the existence of Jesus Christ. I have never had an experience with Jesus Christ (as far as I know. Then again, he could have been that man on the beach) but I have certainly had experiences with other teachers and there was a time when I saw green holographic Buddhas in the foliage and flowers on all sides, regular like. A certain amount of corruption has dimmed my sight but I expect that to pass (grin). The corruptions of the mortal world are very difficult to avoid and that is why so many sincere seekers remove themselves from the world. Some of us do not have that luxury, given the nature of our appointed tasks and the degree of demonstrations required of us.

Christ was the last and greatest avatar of this 26,000 year cycle. The highest expression of Love is manifested in sacrifice. “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” He also said, “No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. These things I command you, so that you will love one another. “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.”

Bad Friday has often been a time of great trial for me Traditionally it has been a time when I have gone off the rails. This could be simply because April has often been cruel to me; more so than any other month. So far... not this time.

Many of you are deeply insecure about your right to the luminous realms; both as they are experienced here and elsewhere, should disparate locations even apply. They do and they don't, just like all the other fractured koan realities of life that we do not understand because of the divine contradictions. You sell yourself short, forgetting that, “all have sinned and come short of the glory of god.” Though you may have been born in sin; meaning that you were burdened with Karma. Karma (via samskaras) causes us to not be able to see clearly and so we miss the target, which is what 'sin' actually means and... I'm saying what I am saying because all of our misunderstandings come from a lack of understanding and it clouds our sight. We cannot have a perfect aim if we cannot vision correctly. Christ is the true example of perfect seeing and we can see with his eyes and hear with his ears, if we acquire the right type and amount of devotion. Though we have failed a thousand times, we shall not always fail and forgiveness is ours to claim, should we be capable of embracing a contrite heart.

These are some ideas to think about during this time. If you have read The Way to the Kingdom, then you know that on Easter some of us are privileged to attend a ceremony that is held every year on the higher planes. In some cases it is possible you might have attended but have no memory of it. It is possible that any number of things have happened to you but you don't remember. Memory (the High Priestess) is the key to many considerations.

Before I eat, I always say something to the effect of, “Lord, please bless and consecrate this food to my body for the completion of the Great Work. Transform this substance into the substance of your being and let it become that in me. Let it transform me into your likeness and make of me the perfect host for your presence. Let it drive all darkness from my being and fill me with the light of your Love. Let it fill my every cell with light and surround me with the aura of your divine protection. Please accomplish the Alchemical Marriage in me.”

Certain forces do not want me to pray or to meditate. I have to deal with this and all of you have to deal with some permutation of negative interference in your lives. Is this interference enough to cause us to turn away? Then it has served its purpose. Otherwise it exists to make you strong. That is also its purpose. The vicissitudes of life exist to test our resolve and our sincerity. They exist to challenge the level of our presumed integrity. What value has any of our assumed virtues unless they have been tried in the fires of experience?

Yesterday I was at Costco and as I was shopping a woman appeared behind me. She was quite beautiful and of indeterminate age. Our eyes met and it was one of those timeless transfers. She showed up several more times. It's impossible to communicate things like this but they happen to all of us, now and again. When I was in rehab in Bad Krozingen, the same woman appeared but she was much younger and the same simpatico occurred. We are not the only ones who inhabit our being. Other beings come and go and account for greatness achieved and the reverse as well. As for the latter, you can read about these events every day in the news. The greater the extremes reached by Materialism in these times, the greater the depravity and excess, which you can also read about every day.

Life is magical in the most wonderful sense but we seldom see this. It is going on around us all the time but we do not see it. We must recapture that ability. It is good to keep in mind that life can change dramatically and very quickly. When our imagination and our finer sensibilities have become polluted, we are rendered into another world. We share that world with many others. There are limits to what is possible in that world. There are no limits in the world that we left, in order to inhabit this dreary plane. It is possible to live in that other world while moving through this one. This has been demonstrably accomplished by those already named in this posting. It has been accomplished by some number of people who have not been named in this posting. It can be accomplished by you.


End Transmission.......

There is half an hour of Bad Friday remaining here in my time zone. These will be a radio broadcast this Easter Sunday. This will be the last posting until Monday at the earliest.

I believe in the Christ Consciousness, and that something like him existed, but I question the story as told in the bible. The book of borrowed (plagerised) mythology. There are tales that he wasn't crucified, and went on to other lands. Could be. After all, what do we know? Everything we're taught seems to be wrong.

Visible,
I have always had trouble in the portrayal of Jesus Christ as this Caucasian with long hair and 'blue' eyes mentality this portrayal of Jesus Christ as a white man as you have pointed out on several occasions that Jesus Christ was Palestinian in the ethnic sense can you please shed some more light on this for me as far as Jesus Christ ethnicity is if you can I will be waiting your response eagerly.
Thank you and God bless,

653. Another hidden and astonishing miracle was wrought by the right hand of God through the instrumentality of the blessed Mary against Lucifer and his infernal spirits. It took place in the following manner:

The dragon and his associates, though they could not understand the humiliation of the Lord, were most attentive to all that happened in the Passion of the Lord. Now, when He took upon Himself the Cross, all these enemies felt a new and mysterious tremor and weakness, which caused in them great consternation and confused distress. Conscious of these unwonted and invincible feelings the prince of darkness feared, that in the Passion and Death of Christ our Lord some dire and irreparable destruction of his reign was imminent. In order not to be overtaken by it in the presence of Christ our God, the dragon resolved to retire and fly with all his followers to the caverns of hell. But when he sought to execute this resolve, he was prevented by the great Queen and Mistress of all creation; for the Most High, enlightening Her and intimating to Her what She was to do, at the same time invested Her with his power. The heavenly Mother, turning toward Lucifer and his squadrons, by her imperial command hindered them from flying; ordering them to await and witness the Passion to the end on mount Calvary. The demons could not resist the command of the mighty Queen; for they recognized and felt the divine power operating in Her. Subject to her sway they followed Christ as so many prisoners dragged along in chains to Calvary, where the eternal wisdom had decreed to triumph over them from the throne of the Cross, as we shall see later on. There is nothing which can exemplify the discouragement and dismay, which from that moment began to oppress Lucifer and his demons. According to our way of speaking, they walked along to Calvary like criminals condemned to a terrible death, and seized by the dismay and consternation of an inevitable punishment. ...

...He wished to intimate thereby, that He despoiled the demon of this power and transferred it to his own shoulders, in order that thenceforward the captive children of Adam should recognize Him for their legitimate Lord and true King....

655. But alas, the pity of our most ungrateful forgetfulness! That the Jews and ministers of the Passion should be ignorant of this mystery hidden to princes of this world, and that they should not dare touch the Cross of the Savior, because they considered it the wood of ignominy and shame, was their own fault and a very great one. ...

"Behold, I make all things new.
It is only the earthbound spirit that cannot soar.
Every blessing I send you, every joy, every freedom achieved from poverty and worry will loosen a strand that ties you to earth.
It is only those strands that bind you. Therefore your freedom will mean your rising into the realm of Joy and Appreciation.
Clipped wings can grow again. Broken voices regain a strength and beauty unknown before. Your power to help other lives will soon bring its delight, even when, at first, the help to yourselves may seem too late to bring you Joy.
Worn-out and tired as you may seem, and pain-weary, I say unto you, "Behold, I make all things new." That promise shall be fulfilled. Tenderly across the years, yet tenderly close and near to your tired noise-weary ears, I speak to you, My loved ones, today."
"Come unto Me all ye that labor and are heavy-laden and I will give you rest." Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. From Broken Voices.

a human with the highest reputation of deep humility, most kindness, amazing forgiveness
teaching love, hope, eternal life…interesting how this life was so documented.
interesting how many "believe in" people who existed much further back in history,
living much less documented lives. Jesus seems to have lived at a fulcrum
of time; faith vs evidence. most history in the western world since his time is quite well documented.
Interesting who despises him…

I can vouch for Jesus...(sweet smiles)... do not doubt, do not fear.

I haven't read your stuff for months and months and months, Les. I am on a short break this Easter Weekend - in Sussex, England/ I have just read through several of your pieces, starting with the Laurel Canyon one and your analysis of that whole thing seems to be as accurate as it can get ( from what we can KNOW, as you say. ) The point is - something happened this morning - I got a photograph of it in the early stages - that I wasn't remotely expecting to happen - that suggests the Reality of Christ that I wasn't even wanting to prove to myself or anybody else - but the Sheep knew - Sheep are the most casually insulted of all creatures (outside Dogs in TRULY Barbarian cultures) but the SHEEP knew before I did (I have always loved and respected Sheep - Sheeple us just so WRONG as a metaphor.) it us nearly midnight here in England - on a night of a Full Moon - and I am QUITE not-sober, but not by my own standards when the mood is on one -

Dear Vis,

What a fitting post to commemorate the sacrifice willingly given by my friend, brother, and inspiration, Jesus Christ.

I have known from a very young age that institutions are dead, and therefore not for me, because I am one of the living. While many here seem to have tired their selves in search of that which they seek, I did not. For some reason I instinctively knew what not to do. It has only been in the last few years that I have looked back and now realise that I was simply following a path that was set out for me long before I came to this plane of existence.

I speak often of my experience in this realm because it is the only thing that I consider my self an expert in. I can clearly see how God has moved through my life to effect that which I am today. I ask that people don't mistake this for ego, because I realise many are having similar experiences, or experiences just as auspicious, but I know not of those things so I don't go there.

Many years ago I had a very vivid dream where I walked with Jesus in an ancient setting of Jesus' era. I was looking on from a third person perspective, as if I was watching a movie. I was walking with Jesus and he knew me personally, well enough to be an apostle. I could not hear a word that was being exchanged, and could only view proceedings from behind, so I know not what was said, or even if I was male or female, all I know is that this dream was a life changing moment for me. From that moment forward I went from not really thinking about Jesus at all, or for that matter having much interest in the person we call Jesus, to who I am today. My mother often criticises me for sounding like a minister, which in our family is a dirty word :o). I come from an extremely unreligious family. Although I was christened as a young child that is the extent of my bonding with any institution, and strangely enough the very institution I was christened under is the same one spirit told me I could not enter its headquarters or I would be tainted.

Recently you posted Vis that there is no difference between good and evil because all is God. Please excuse my laziness for not finding the exact quote, if you wish I will go looking :o). I agree in essence because good and evil are either ends of a ladder. The Sanhedrin priests provide the opportunity for great evil in this world to hold onto their perceived power, but as you and I both know that power comes from the Divine. The priests have played an essential role in the evolution of humanity's consciousness, because it was only through being exposed to evil that humanity would eventually, like Christ, learn to overcome it. This is where karma comes in, because our karma is directly related to our actions towards others, hence our karma decides whether we move up the ladder or down in the evolution of our consciousness. This is why the 'golden rule' is so important. The evil we experience is a challenge for each of us to overcome in order to evolve.

What Jesus actually looked like is not paramount to me because it is the energy within Jesus which holds my attention. Having said this it is pure common sense that Jesus was of middle eastern origin, and I believe, Palestinian, which is probably the reason there is such an effort being made to exterminate them.

Keep in mind though that Jesus stood staunchly against the harshness of punishments against those who sinned, and instead supported compassion and forgiveness. Jesus also showed us that women have an important role to play, so important that many argue one of the apostles was a woman? Some even suggest that Mary Magdalene was Jesus' wife?

Hail Lord Jesus Christ but for whom the evolution of humanity would not have been possible. Thank you Jesus for freeing me from bondage. Thank you for being my friend, confidant, and brother in service to the one and only God in existence, the all. Thank you God for loving humanity so that you gave your only son to save us.

Luv Kazz

The New World Order is the elite's attempt to hold onto power, because they know as humanity evolves, and we are, at an exponential rate, that they will lose all control over humanity. This is why the elite have employed 'Agenda 21' to reduce the population by 90%, so humanity will be easier to control. This is also why the elite are going all out to corrupt humanity, to both blind humanity to the elite's corrupt nature, and also to stop us from evolving.

Luv Kazz

Visible said...

I have always maintained that Jesus was a Syrian. I'm sure that interfaces with Palestinian. They are the people from the Bible. the residents of modern day Satanic Israel are not the people of the book. He was not a white man.

Karen Norman, had a little glimpse at your other stuff - All Hail, you have flippin' trod your path like few else! Re:what Jesus looked like - again, one can't KNOW, but personally have a VERY high regard for Wellesley Tudor Pole -his writings are few but WELL worth seeking out - anyway, there is a particular little book of his entitled 'A Man seen afar' - the description of Christ and all those Easter events, as I remember, are both expected AND unexpected enough to be satisfyingly plausible -

"The highest expression of Love is manifested in sacrifice. “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” He also said, “No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you."

After reading section 20 of part 2 of Age of Reason and all the synchronicity which accompanied my understanding of the truth. Almighty never had to and never did sacrifice himself. In fact God Almighty dos not have servants or slaves would never take a servant or slave, and like wise would never be a slave. The greatest expression of love is freedom. Even if we wanted to be in bondage or slaves to God we could never be. For me the experience the Divine has put me on was to see that absolutely clearly. We are all moving towards greater and greater degrees of freedom. You are free to believe what you choose, but don't be disappointed if it's not true in the end.

The last time I commented here, I went and shared a picture with the same text I shared here about Nijinsky's last dance, In the photo he was laying in the clouds as the faun, but what is magical about that is within 24 hours there appeared in the Sun on NASA'a satellite; images of the faun laying in the sun, I took a screen capture of that image. So what you write here is true, that some of us do come from other worlds. all of which are part and parcel of the same heaven. "There are no limits in the world that we left, in order to inhabit this dreary plane. It is possible to live in that other world while moving through this one."

Here's the online text of Age of reason part II section 20 it's about the size of two or three of your blogs in total. I'm curious if you've read it in the past? BTW this was something I discovered three maybe four weeks ago. When I first read it and still now it's so deep and profound to Me. It speaks to my conscience, and hart more profoundly than anything I ever read in the bible. http://www.ushistory.org/paine/reason/reason36.htm

Visible said...

We all have to work it out to our own satisfaction. Conversely that does not necessarily apply to anyone else. Contradictions abound and they are all true. God has form and god is formless. Everything and nothing are simultaneously so and not so. I've no need to argue about anything. Time will tell and we shall see.

The age of reason is strictly temporal and applies only in that bandwidth. God is neither reasonable or rational and any attempt to confine the unconfinable within such parameters does no more than confine the mind so engaged in it.

Alan Jong said...

Vis,

Thanks for responding right away. Language is a cross we all must bear like in your statement here is both true yet contradictory, but goes on to just demonstrate in the last part which you nailed from to "confine the unconfinable" yet stating God is neither reasonable or rational is an attempt at that. "God is neither reasonable or rational and any attempt to confine the unconfinable within such parameters does no more than confine the mind so engaged in it."

The Almighty is a presence we feel more than anything, and so you're right.

What it comes down to is so much of life is feeling that is the river, and it is either dragging us or were flowing with the current.

Anyway, Happy Easter Sunday.

Katy said...

Who can know the width depth and height of the Almighty? Let alone the time and eternity and mind of that which is ineffable....

There is much evidence that people enslave themselves to gnashing spirits.
In fact the most poignant sacrifice in time and space, which occurred on " good friday" was to lift the karmic debt of such lost, self-ensnared souls.
But evidence counts as naught to most:
In my first comment above, i link to the author, whose holy body lays incorrupt 300 years after a humble life of miracles and sacrifice. But who cares? If it was madonna or prince's body, or a kardashian, and it was incorrupt for a week, there would be mediorgasms nonstop....

Evidence matters not in this age. In 1917, the Miracle of the Sun occurred at Fatima, Portugal. The photos are in library of congress. 70,000 people witnessed and newspapers reported. Even the smallest, least detail,~~ soaking wet crowds in inches of mud were left clean and dry ~~ is inexplicable.

Evidence, proof, reason, and intellectual fancydancing will generally not be enough to bring about the innocent, childlike openness of mind needed for the sight of God...

A crushing amount of misery has been coming up in my mind in recent days. The disillusionment with personal being and material life, seen from the temporal perspective, has provoked a tidal wave of negativity -- fear and judgment at the whole predicament. All through this pain and sorrow, I am receiving reminders that it is simply the perspective that makes it seem so threatening, insurmountable and pointless. That there is another way to see, timeless and miraculous.

The kingdom of heaven of which Christ taught was "hidden from the wise and prudent, and revealed unto babes." The kingdom of heaven is the state of abiding in that which transcends time and space: unconditional Love. The part of our mind that seeks division rather than unity cannot conceive of it; we must therefore take up the journey of healing the mind if and when the desire to return to that blessed state surpasses all other desires. We cannot achieve this healing personally, trapped as we are in false perception. It is the One behind personality that achieves it, using all temporal symbols for its purpose of atonement.

To have that singleness of purpose, to give oneself over to it without condition or reservation, is only possible when we have drunk the cup of futility to its last bitter dregs, when we have had our fill of the way of the world.

My resistance makes me ill. The despondency it engenders makes me incapable of functioning sanely. I am dragging, dragging, dragging through the long twilight of mortal motivation. The voice of Christ calls to a spiritual dawn. The voice of the damned says "I can't, not yet." All it can offer is delay. More of the same. Entropy and suffering.

Christ calls. The victory is won. Only the mirage of time stands between us and eternity. Infinite Love has undone the deeds of the flesh. We can go home whenever we are ready. To forsake the world and follow salvation is an act of faith. The shackles of the devil bind us only by our own complicity.

I feel I have no living words of comfort today. May the comfort reach your heart nonetheless, if not now, then at the time it does.

The clarity in your words, Vis, testifies powerfully. Let the truly wise take heed, even if I am not among them. Thank you!

Reason at the human level is all about balance:

Balance of values, balance of forces, a dynamic balance of dancing in time and space.

Logic is the bones, reason is the flesh. When logic is applied to micro-scale, human perceived objects and ideas, then Reason is indeed limited in what it can balance.

If one can’t see that this balancing act is ongoing at all levels and scales, from the One at the highest integration level all the way down, infinitely, into all the fractal similarities of all the created worlds, one for each speck of sentience, then that is no reason to dis-respect Reason!

Where would the Divine marriage between the pure force of Love and the pure counter-force of Consciousness\Awareness\Perception be if there was no method to the madness? Even if our self-limited minds strain to encompass the scope and scale of the Order, to comprehend even a dim analog of the perfectly balanced, spinning Yin-Yang, that experience does not trump the Experience!

There is vast confusion about which polarity corresponds to which gender expression in this house of cards. There is a parallel perceptual inversion in what the Heart/Mind conceptualizations correlate to, in this dance of endless embrace around the Center.

Any force out of balance deviates from the blueprint of Creation, yet is allowed by the design, to propel movement and generate new experience, for the One and the Many.

It is unfortunately, a clear agenda of the endarkened opposition party, is to sell the message to all willing ID-iots, that freedom consists merely in blowing out all concepts of Consciousness, in favor of more force and feeling experienced, at all costs to Gaia and all the other planetary fleas.

Human minds, mostly operating un-consciously, certainly must be blown to grow, but the growth process and the target, is not a theater of primordial forces unrestricted in their interplay by the feedback from Consciousness, but a larger and larger vision of the passion play, coming everywhere you want to be!

We all suffer the frustration from our little minds being unable or unwilling to be trained to coalesce into the Universal focus. It does not follow, that rejecting the mind and any analog of Consciousness is the key to liberation!

It is far more subtle: Every moment we detect our perception to be trapped in a mental construct, is an opportunity to out-grow that limited game, in favor of more, a larger comprehension of the insensate beauty parading all around us!

The way of Bhakti (at least, as popularly understood), may attract those who actually, tacitly wish to preserve some portion of their recalcitrant minds, while adopting the seeming path of mindless devotion. Driving through the fears and limits of the local mind, in trust and faith in the power of the flow, is both viable and essential, on any path.

(part two of two)

But just like a mother, seeking to supply every good experience to her child, must temper her energy flow from her infinite inner resource, using her presence of Mind to lovingly apportion the power of her Love, so the One, rather than hand fledgling self-consciousness’s a stick of dynamite, and saying: “go out and play”, mediates the pure power with the pure awareness which accompanies all expression of power, in humble partnership, and gifts all the children with a Conscious Love bomb, one that may only expand at a rate which is commanded by the local carrier.

Certainly, the perceived opposite path, the path of accumulating knowledge, mostly static in conception, can be seen as being the longer road home and to this simple mind, suffers from an obvious limitation: the need to full comprehend the One, before being able to play the love game as a peer.

Far better to work from the ground of our being, up, playing patty cake directly with emotional forces, while learning not to burn along the way.

But this path still must marry the Mind as well as the Center, must still continually grow new containers, to hold the new experiences, the essential and inevitable product of energy in motion. What else is the Mind but an ongoing, increasing-in-scope container of experience and perception, from a single point?

Worship of the static mind, complacent in its limitations, is the religion of the endarkened ones. That bath water must be thrown out! But the baby is the mystical union of Force with Awareness and the obstacle to the path of Bhakti IS still the same un-conscious mind, making a mess of the experience of pure Love, by its unseen resistance and reluctance to let go of limited perception.

To transcend the mind means to fully embrace its limitations, for the purpose of loving it out of its comfortable grooves, and to commit to growing the mind into the Mind, not by abstract mental processes but by the active lovemaking of serving the natural, unfettered expression of the One.

All paths lead home, eventually, as there IS no other there there!

It is our human lens which sees duality and polarity through its double refraction due to the divided nature of our perception.
Every path, fast or slow, high or low, requests the Divine gift of the balance of the One, requires reason to become Reason, while Love demands immediate attention, at all times, demanding our full commitment to being in every moment.

Whatever path leads to being serene in the understanding that direct experience, full mind-body-spirit participation is the essence and that there is an Easter egg embedded within creation, bypassing all the mental and intellectual hoops which demons have erected out of their worship of static knowledge and egoic control, taking the shortcut of simply starting to walk the walk, to play Divine riffs as well as we can from limited consciousness, as practice in time, to play more and more like the One.

Happy Easter Everyone!

BCii, you say: "I feel I have no living words of comfort today."

Take heart, friend. The comforting is in seeing you own exactly what you're going through and speaking honestly about it. No denial or avoidance. I am again reminded of this from a Native American brother:


"A medicine man shouldn't be a saint
He should experience and feel
all the ups and downs,
the despair and joy,
the magic and the reality,
the courage and the fear
of his people
He should be able to sink
as low as a bug,
or soar
as high as an eagle
Unless he can experience both,
he is no good as a medicine man."

--John Fire Lame Deer


I feel I have recently gone through what you have described, and, in fact, am on the tail-end of it, a personal "crucifixion," of sorts. The darkness teaches so much. I am again ready to rise, though slowing and with a bit more understanding. So I, William, found much comfort in your words.

@BCii:

Your contribution resonates from the place of doubt, ringing all about the call of unconditional love!

Thank you for your willingness to share your imperfections with the rest of us, in-progress creations!

The kingdom of heaven of which Christ taught was "hidden from the wise and prudent, and revealed unto babes." The kingdom of heaven is the state of abiding in that which transcends time and space: unconditional Love. The part of our mind that seeks division rather than unity cannot conceive of it; we must therefore take up the journey of healing the mind if and when the desire to return to that blessed state surpasses all other desires

So powerful to report from the state of self-aware unfulfillment, describing the pull of the One and the reaction of the temporal self!

Very useful guidepost to everyone still suffering from ambiguous wills and doubting perceptions, e.g. everyone on this bus!

Gratitude and love, my brother!


@Katy:
Awesome posts you share with us!

I see the coming-from-commitment clarity!

I catch the feeling tone loud and clear!

Thank you thank you, my awesome sister!

What a sweet place to be, where the children are free to shine without guile, in the house which Vis has made in the Intermind!

For those good, brave, humble enough to share the moments
~days ~months ~ of sorrow, despair, even crushing weight:

May i say what small truth i know, that you are blessed. Eventually, one might find, that there is only you and with you, him. When pain increases, is beyond bearing, you may find yourself,~be nudged, invited to that place...
Just he and i.
Eventually when you come out, you will look back with dare i say fondness, at least gratitude and respect for the cleansing fire.
Can words like these be a lifebouy?
I do not know.


(Three crushing days
Three years ago
I still say thankyou in my prayers for that one long extended moment)

However, it (imo) is not exclusively 'perspective', however powerful and widespread that anchor may be, that can lay us low.
There IS anguish; human nature truly has that capacity.
Love rejected is reflected in deep sorrow. Knowing the fullness of sorrowful things is not an illusion. In the midst of it one must still " have courage and be kind..."

"Everyone must work it out" ~ tis true, but here is a gift given to me:
Go to the crucified, anguished Christ. Hang out there. There are many celestial and glorious beings there. The dark fallen ones despise that place and you can rest there.


I gain much in joining in the comments here, although reading only
did give me such flights of happy.

What a place this is,
Where one calls another 'sister'
:-)
And love abounds from all to each other.
Thanks! Lets get out the feast and cue the tunes...

Oh yeah one last thing.
A bit of a Trippy little woo site, (unknown to me, a stumbleupon) still, i got a chill as i read this
http://apocalypseparadigm.blogspot.com

Then came the final moment, the ultimate struggle, evidenced by Jesus’ words, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” ... From the first moment of his conception, Jesus knew that he was the Beloved Son of God. ... Even in the garden, Jesus knew that he was the Beloved Son.

Now, that light was covered over. The Father did not hide himself but Satan, by his great intellect, saw how to cover over the Father’s face.

The Victory of Mutual Love
This was darkness, for both Jesus and myself. We had only each other. The darkness was complete and total. Our love for each other was the only light that we enjoyed and we remained embraced in our mutual love until the end. At the end, there seemed to be no faith, nor even hope. Especially, there seemed to be not even love for the Father. All that we knew is that we loved one another. ...

Thank you all for your wonderful posts. They are poetry to my heart. I don't know what I did to run into all of you guys but it was a wonderful thing. I can't believe how talented, intelligent, evolved, and loving you guys all are.

Happy Easter to you all.

May God bless all of us and bring an end to slavery so humanity can evolve into the awesome essence that our creator knew we could be.

Thank you God for arranging for all these awesome people to touch space here and our graceful host Vis for making it possible.

Luv Kazz

Thank you all, who poured out your loving responses to a suffering brother, more than words can say.


Robert, your contribution is rich indeed. More than can be taken in by reading it once or twice. Your keenness of insight and lucidity of expression make for a mind-blowing experience. What a gift!


It was this piece, shared by one who reads here, that helped me make the shift in consciousness I needed to break out of the depressive loop I was in: Enlightenment: What It Is and How to Get It. I went from 'what hope, woe is me' to shaking my booty and laughing.

Sometimes there are dramatic crisis-resolution episodes like this. More often it is a barely noticeable process of evolution through sustained, daily endeavor.

The path I am on is breaking me down little by little, day by day. A new me is in the works. It's never easy, not for any of us who signed up to make this leap. I wish I could share more, tell someone my whole story. Another part of me says sucking it up builds character. Perhaps I'll write a book about it one day. What's certain is that all this is turning me into someone more useful than the person I would have remained otherwise.

The master chips away. Karma and belief, resistance and vice, weakness and obstacles, attachments and clutter. Self-concepts. I don't know the end result. All I know is I want to be who I truly am, where I truly belong. Restored and integrated.

The only way out is through. I'm not overly enamored of threedee – who would be, knowing what lies beyond? – but at least it's not too easy. Some of us are really, really into these impossible challenges. (raises hand, looks around) We must be either real chumps, or real heroes. (laughs)

I hope the higher invisibles get a kick out of me sometimes. Their job ain't easy either. I hope I remember to thank them more often.


We should never think our efforts to serve are in vain. If we were not needed, we would not exist.

I am so grateful for this coming-together of souls. Beautiful things happen because of the sharings and connections in this space. So thank you for coming. Thank you for doing. Thank you for being. Thank you!

Galen,
In this quote you share you definitely caught one of the keys to living and healing, and that is feeling. Too many people in the present state of the world condition their emotions with fear therefore use fear as a means of suppressing those emotions. People are in a constant internal battle escaping and censoring the streams of emotions, attempting the impossible making of themselves automatons to survive in a system with no sustainable prospects even to that degree. It's okay to feel any emotion including hate. Once you allow yourselves the freedom to feel if those feelings are not positive then the freedom to resolve those feelings is possible. I know here I'm writing this to people who have moved past that point, but it's just nice to share validation and mutual understanding.
"A medicine man shouldn't be a saint
He should experience and feel
all the ups and downs,
the despair and joy,
the magic and the reality,
the courage and the fear
of his people
He should be able to sink
as low as a bug,
or soar
as high as an eagle
Unless he can experience both,
he is no good as a medicine man."

--John Fire Lame Deer

When people suppress their emotions most often fear becomes the dominant emotion, and that is what leads to escapism. That is the vibrational state the system of capitalism requires to function.

Yes BCii,

I am very grateful too to have a place to meet fellow "crazies" online ... and have been for years now. In fact Vis kicked me on "my path" ... ;)

Thanks Vis for offering this place and your efforts, and one and all who come here for sharing thoughts, insights and experiences ... very much appreciated.

It looks like many of us experienced a re-enactment of a "Golgotha" of sorts last week ... may there be a resurrection too ... ;)

OneLove

Erik
