Peter Ralston On LOVE - Newsletter Response

[Xonas Pitfall]

In order for God to be God, it has to create finite forms. This has been said many times before. It has to “forget,” metaphorically, that It is One, the same, all of Itself. So to do that, it creates other forms, finite forms of Itself, that forget they are It.

The process by which you remember and “reunite” with yourself, with God, is called Love. When you recognize and remember yourself as God, you experience beauty, love, awakening, bliss, and ecstasy.

When you fall in love, you recognize the other as yourself, or you recognize God, the beauty within the other. Then you want to unite completely: through your thoughts, your eyes, your lips, your bodies, your genitals, your sounds, your moans, your whispers. That whole process is Love.

Love is one of the aspects of God. It is a mechanism through which God “others” Itself and then reunites with Itself once again.

You cannot have unity between finite beings without Love.

You cannot have finitude without observation.

You cannot have finitude without Consciousness.

Interesting.

I've never heard him say that.

 

[Someone here]

Autistic how ? How can you be autistic and highly conscious and intelligent?  Though His talking is not steady .. he opens a topic then immediately run into a tangent and blabber for ten minutes then returns back to the main point ..but I have the book of not knowing on my phone and he is accurate as a knife in contemplation. 

[Xonas Pitfall]

One way to think of God is as an infinite “playground” in which finite forms can appear and exist, like children playing within it. In this view, humans and all other finite things are expressions within that field of existence.

Truth, love, and consciousness can then be understood as the “ground” or “medium” of that playground. They are not separate objects inside the system, but the underlying conditions that make experience itself possible. They function like the background container that allows separate beings to arise, relate, and persist as distinct yet connected forms within the whole.

1. If that “playground” (universe or God) were not truth, then there would be a fundamental bias in which forms could exist and which could not exist, making it an inaccurate medium for the expression of ALL infinity.
2. If that “playground” (universe or God) were not pure, unfiltered consciousness, then there would be a fundamental bias in which forms could be perceived and which could not be perceived, like a human eye that cannot see the full range of the electromagnetic spectrum of color, making it an incomplete medium for the expression of ALL infinity.
3. If that “playground” (universe or God) were not love, then there would be a fundamental bias in which forms are preferred and which are not preferred to exist, more or less loved, creating separation and hierarchy, making it an inconsistent medium for the expression of ALL infinity.

That's your problem right there

Maybe but according to you I wouldn't qualify for a psychedelic retreat because of certain mental disorders.   😀

Autistic how ?

He has a very cold, logical, overly masculine mental attitude toward everything.

With that kind of attitude, love could get lost.

He is so cold that if you squirt water up his ass you'll get an ice cube.

Pure OCD.. which is an anxiety based disorder  its called the doubt disorder.  The ego craves complete certainty.  Only awakening was the cure.  It has been mostly dormant of late.

Pure OCD

Well, I don't know how bad yours is, but I never said that disqualifies you from psychedelics.

OCD is a strange condition which I don't know how it mixes with psychedelics.

Perhaps someone here who has OCD and has done psychedelics can chime in.

True you didn't say that but sometimes I need meds for it if it flares up real bad.  

[Joseph Maynor]

Needing everyone to agree with you is kind of an OCD.

I know i can't smoke weed at all.  It gives me immediate panic attacks almost all the time I try it so I don't mess with it at all now.

[Someone here]

@Leo Gura is there a chance to collab with Ralston again similar to the old interview when you were still trying to make sense of all these issues.. but of course now you have gained massive growth and  understating. Would be fun to watch .

Well, this is a problem. How can I give you something stronger than weed if you can't handle weed? That would be irresponsible of me.

I don't want to argue with him. And he is not open to changing his views or talking like peers.

[Joseph Maynor]

If you had it, why would you need to be right?  That shows me a finite performance and perspective.
