Understanding Everyone: Empathic Reflections about Osama Bin-Laden’s Killing

"Even as you do unto any of men - you do unto Me.
I am the One who is with you now".

What you seem to do is an expression of what is in your heart. If fear and hatred find a place in your heart then you are lost to your love and will act insanely. But the healing of the heart does not lie in acting out from the belief that it's causes are out in the world or in the past, but in your willingness to be the love and see the love - even though love is beyond your own power to make.

The attempt to displace our own split mind onto the world and others can never be resolved in the world or by changing others.

While you seek to hide in the world, you need both enemy and conflict, in order to maintain a seemingly valid mind based upon a largely unconscious denial of your own thought.

None can be brought to reevaluate their own mind and experience but that they discover willingness freely in their own heart.

The seemingly endless conflict and suffering that man calls forth and takes value in is nonetheless the 'wake up' call for those who can no longer maintain their own illusions and believe them true.
Waking up is not an act or limited experience within the world but is the restoration to the mind of its true nature - such that stories of separation are no longer desired or acted out.
This moves us from viewing the world as persons or from identifying ourselves person. But opens to a living expression of the Life as it lives and moves and breathes all things.
God is no respecter of persons - because they are a mental construct in a script acted out as if it were real. Now, remains forever the point of responsibility - and the past is only substituted for it by our desire to experience a partiality as if it were real. This puts us in apparent conflict with reality. But only from the perspective grown within the illusion itself. Not in truth.
The undoing of sins is the nature of perfect love.
In preparation for receiving this we may find stepping stones - where we gain some sense of order amidst chaos by 'putting sins' onto a symbol - and killing it or driving it out. This is not the way that undoes sin - but simply seeds it in the darkness to rise again in other forms.

The mind that actively seeks vengeance cannot hear the call for truth - for it is possessed of its own assertions and a sense of surety that its grievance seems to prove. These are the poor for they know not what they are nor what they do. To love them for what they truly are is to grow the willingness for truth in one mind. One mind.
When the gift is given, it is received - even if the full acceptance of the gift is delayed.

Men live according to the thoughts that they accept into their minds. But have forsaken, denied, lost and forgotten their true relation and nature in their own thought.
To release judgement is to relinquish a power we never have had and become free of the effect of a false sense of self and life.
Truth is unbounded and undefinable - yet truly knowing and being known in perfect inclusion is not vague or thought derived experience.
This light cannot be communicated - but does communicate itself in its own way as we let it be our own foundation.

Thank you for your attention

In Peace

Could Greece be the next Lehman Brothers? Yes – and potentially even worse

The system itself is bankrupt.
The mentality that is embodied in the system is bankrupt.
The system cannot fix itself because it can only use the mind that creates it.
An adjustment is the disappearing of an illusory sense of value or reality and a process of actually connecting.
Our minds need adjusting by a heartfelt desire for a true way to live.
Fearful resistance is so deeply embedded that we rarely awaken gracefully, but drag out in denial and evasion - using ingenious minds to keep the show on the road even as it simply becomes ever more deeply destructive and distractive to our real lives.

It may be that the world is on the slide into war. For war and death is an 'escape' from impasse that cannot be addressed. An out-of-control-ness that results from holding onto an illegitimate attempt to control.

But while its all up on the Big Screen, we have a millennial opportunity to see our minds reflected without dumping it onto others or the past, and allow a shift of our mind and our heart to open our perspective on everything.

Listen, receive and do.

I'd stake my life that Stephen Hawking is wrong about heaven

There is nothing so blinding as self image or concept.

This 'self' uses the body as its temporary 'home' and yet kills it over time - because the self is the idea of separating off from Life.

It usurps and distorts all that is eternally Alive in asserting its own 'kingdom'; its own judgement - and its own imaginative wishful thinking.

And yet it only works on a local copy.

That which is eternal is and always Is

What we choose to give our attention to is up to us.

But to let our mind rest of its attempt to 'understand' and thereby control all things to its own presumed perspective, is to allow the Universal Field of Being to align all things truly.

Because religion has been used as a tool of manipulation, its terms are degraded for those who refuse the carrot and the stick, but it remains true that if you cease to invest in your own definitions of life and others and the world, then you can experience the infilling Meaning that redeems and restores your awareness to its true roots - in a Non Local Field - even amidst all appearances of self and world and circumstance.

You are the scientist and you are the experiment in which you abandon the fearful, deceptive, mean spirited, self concerned mentality that is not worthy of the truth of You.

To those who still choose conflict as the lifeblood of their identity, hell is heaven and heaven is hell.

A modern fairytale is extinction - like a tv turned off. As if responsibility could EVER be truly evaded! Rude awakenings may nonetheless turn out to be helpful when help is accepted.

For by what we think and believe in our heart, we will experience.
If there is a desire to protect the thinking from the presence and relational current of feeling, then the dimension of Soul will be put aside, discarded, rendered invisible, unwanted - amidst a perpetual distraction that validates and enables thinking some more.

The god that we make is a symbolic representation that reflects something of the nature of our self. It can grow out from magical and fearful beginnings and become an opening way to a real relational receptivity.

God Presencing all things right where you are is all there is of you - not just in the locally defined sense of personhood and its experience - but as all in all.

Because such awareness or communioned being is prior to all thought processes, it is invisible and unthinkable and therefore non existent to a thinking based sense of self. Yet a thought cannot be observed but that Awareness is present.

We may define all things in our own image and live as if it were true - but we do not make awareness Be. Rest in the intimacy of your own being and don't get pulled into the crab-barrel of opinions. If you do not find rest, become a scientist. Watch the mind, the emotions, the body. See the nature of consciousness and see through your own deceptions. No one else can take this journey for you. You are free to take it when you are willing. Heaven is not what you think - but in letting your thought be guided in a truly listening heart, Love's Meaning will register with you.
