We always have choices - otherwise we are victims of the idea we are "forced" into things. We can choose to be hateful, arrogant and willful. We can choose to remain victims of past superstitions. We can choose to challenge our beliefs and find a better understanding. There are as many choices open as there are people thoughful enough to be thinking. The choice I like and am finding at times difficult to embrace is: Choose peace. Our illusory and belief-based egos want to fight, fuss, control and be right. When this ego of self-identity dies then we Awaken to the full stream of Cosmic Consciousness. The "way" to do this is by constantly and persistently choosing peace because the ego will always choose to fight/war. Choosing peace defuses the ego over time and will result in a new mind-set of Peace Profound - which is the Awakened state or as the old timers called it "Christed", God-men, etc. It is not the belief systems (religions) that are wrong (they are simply operating with misinterpretations) - it is the belief they are "right" in their interpretations/superstitions (and everyone else is wrong) that causes the problems. Sometimes I want to agree with the Buddhists that there is no God. There is no anthropomorphic God (made in the image of men). There is Awareness which operates on the principles as identified by Keely in his sympathetic laws of Harmony and Discord. His clarification was: "The eternally conscious entity - call it by whatever name we please - moves in cycles as eternal and infinite as itself; it oscillates and vibrates perpetually and is never unconscious of any present condition, be it pain or pleasure, joy or sorrow, shame or glory; like the pendulum of a clock or the sun, moon, or tides, it swings from the one to the other of these conditions, now in pleasure, now in pain, by its contact with the extremes of all varying conditions, like a child which throws up its head and laughing for joy exclaims, I KNOW I AM." Keely Awareness or Consciousness is a function of harmonic vibrations (Bjerknes Effect) of immense vibratory rates. In this pure sympathy all other vibrations of like kind are known to or within such a state. Unconsciousness is the same realm of vibration in discord - no sympathetic communication is possible. Quieting the thoughts in consciousness is the only way to remove the discordant tones which in doing so increases the degree of Awareness. Hence choosing peace is the only true choice because by doing so we quiet our fear-engendered thoughts and increase harmony to/with all else. Fighting and bickering are anathema to peace in/and of mind and always leads to chaos. Fighting and bickering are an effect of judging something to be bad or good. When all there really is is peace (Love) or chaos (Fear) - in one's thinking. |
