Forgiveness is the overlooked unpopular message Bearing the unpleasant manifestations of others precedes the necessity for Forgiveness It is an act of Mercy Don't impose your Will on others Mercy is the highest Law Honestly observing Your own inability to exhibit Mercy time after time increases your degree of Being. It cooks you from inside out.

Wonderful interview with Ocke de boer. Discusses the etheric body and what constitutes coating and cleansing of our higher centers,,,,,,

I'm rereading my journal. Reposting this favorite quote from Maurice Nicoll,,,,,

Political correctness is bullshit. I’ve seen the backlash that it helped create. But there is definitely a need to be REAL and also be considerate of others. I’ve put my foot in my mouth so many times that I appear as a complete hypocrite and truth be known, I am. But I’m not a hater. Wait a minute. I can’t say that either,,,, because I allow myself to fully feel my hatred at times. So that qualifies me as being a liar on top of everything else. We all have natural prejudices but can we honestly admit them and be open minded about their existence. Now that I’ve dismantled my credibility once again. Regarding skillful means, Ken Wilber said “meet people where you find them.” That not always an easy thing to do.

Tolle makes a statement here that is a good opener for a conversation. Becoming aware of one’s own internal dialogue. Then being disturbed by being unable to be free of it. That’s my experience of it anyhow. There’s a variation to it over the years. Becoming comfortable or at home with it has definitely been a part of the process. The ability to become free of it at will is a major threshold. Non-conceptual awareness or objectless awareness is a state of consciousness that comes about when the internal dialogue disappears and you are ‘present’ with 3 centered awareness. Relatively, peace and understanding arrive with witness consciousness. This state of consciousness is precarious. More so, the more one is subjected to the crazy world we live in. Internal dialogue can suddenly flood in onto the mind with its variety of possible effects. Self remembering then becomes an individual responsibility for sanity,,,,,
