'Direction' Articles
Jung spoke of a phenomenon called synchronicity. Science is backing that up. There are no coincidences. The line of cause and affect may be very abstract but it is there.
Our minds create illusions. We can’t keep them from it, but we can take charge and make the illusion useful. If you change your point of view it’s normal that more things like that will happen because we will see it that way. Is that not real? Something does change, and it starts with you and it is connected to the world. You don’t exist in a void
You have to know to make your choices in the process. Observe the process of cause and effect in your life.
“I find the great thing in this world is, not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Life Direction
Life direction seems to be a growing concern, and it seems conventional values exasperate the situation rather than help it. Do you agree? The internet has blessed us with information and cursed us with better informed opposing opinions. Making the struggle the same, but more worldly. But the internet has given us too much information, with less idea of which is accurate and which is not. This pushes us away from original guidance if we permit it. The more you learn, the less you know. The people responsible are now changing based on the changes they made, but thinking isn’t keeping up.… Seek More
Direction and Individuality
People mistake consciousness for individuality. There is a transcendent and encompassing consciousness. Our ancestors knew of it. Spirits of place. There is also a natural drive to harmony, to supporting the group. Order and disorder balance where there is oneness with the greater consciousness. We see Gaia consciousness as really just regulating simple creatures. What moved me to bring up the subject of Direction is that Gaia can and is reacting to our resistance. The world isn’t dying, it is fighting. It will stop if we do. Life is the directive force, and it is found in strange attractor patterns,… Seek More
Harmony
The future is an assumption of linear advancement. It is a global advancement. Future is modeled thinking. Time flows in waves as does space. “Global” is in the geometric sense. Consider a wave pattern, the preponderance of circles. The diagram of the golden mean and how it manifests, but you leave a legacy. The energy is retained, none is lost. Reaction is conversion of initial cause, a balancing. We exist as points of awareness in cosmic consciousness. Awareness is what might be called the individual, the soul, the I am. Consciousness is the field in which we play. The soul… Seek More
Finding your Path
How do I find my path? This is a question most people ask. In Taoism, they say if in anything you encounter resistance, it is not it, but yourself. You encounter resistance because you haven’t found the way of your act. The way of your being. This resistance is a good thing. It is like pain. If it still hurts, it means it can still heal. You will find it when you stop looking outside of you and there is no need to be discouraged. When you hear words spoken, your inner self will respond if they are of your… Seek More
Your Path Now
There is a subjective truth, and it is true, and there are more universal truths. There is no absolute departure from the truth, even psychology says this. It is why their therapies have any chance of working, and also why psychological disturbance can endure for so long. The disturbed soul isn’t entirely wrong. Jung said “insanity is a sane response to an insane situation”. This is true. Some people say the path is too difficult when it’s really much too easy. Much too simple for most people. They are in love with their thinking. It is easy, that is why… Seek More
Questioning Spiritual Paths
People doubt the overblown concepts, sensationalized belief systems, and I don’t think that’s bad. Spirituality should be just as subject to testing and evaluation as science and technology are. If there isn’t any readily available wisdom that you can apply then why believe it? How do you test spirituality? Do the doctrines or insights of the spirituality prove true in your life? Do any of those truths empower you to better your life? If so there is worth in it. How do you test other peoples spirituality? Are they able to use what they know to improve life? Do they… Seek More
Life Theme
It has been said that each persons life has a single theme at the heart of it, and you can discover that from reflection. It is not the same for every person, but it comes from a thread that permeated their whole life, even childhood. It arises from temperament as well as other factors. It might be to fully engage life. It might be to fully actualize self. It might be to challenge themselves and others. If you find this theme, your true potential can actualize. In my case, ‘be myself’ was the theme. I have very strong instincts, and a nature… Seek More
All Too Easy
Ease is not unwholesome. The way forward is not through a brick wall. Stress is an unnatural state to be in very often. In nature nothing tries to do anything. Seeming struggle is really just an orientation period after nature inspires a new phase in life, yet to have merit in a human world one must be willing to “work hard”. They must have sacrificed much to earn whatever they seek to obtain. Humans sacrifice and them blame that urge on uncaring beings, be they divine or infernal. These beings don’t care, because sacrifice is a human delusion that leads… Seek More
