Love Your Way Out of Anything.



There is no cause-effect.

Meaning that all "Science" is built on a lie.

Yes, I'm even a bit surprised to realize this after years with this data to hand.

  1. The lowest common philosophic denominator discovered so far is the Huna principle. "The World Is What You Think It Is." Or, rephrased,  "You Get What You Create."
  2. This means you create the cause and you create the effect.  Go back to "The Secret" DVD and listen to those quantum physicists again. They found that they'd find whatever they were looking for. If they changed the goal of the experiment, they'd change the result - even if the experiment was run exactly the same way.
  3. You get the effect you want (or that you resist.)
  4. There is no actual cause and effect. There is apparent cause and effect, but you have to agree with the outcome before you can experience it.
  5. So if you aren't experiencing the result you "wanted" - then you simply have to change your mind.


The core book to study in this area would then be "Magic of Believing" by Claude M. Bristol.

If you chased this back further, you'd find that you have to "love" your way out of any problem you are having. Because Love is the actual universal solvent.

Shades of Jesus' "Love your neighbor as yourself." Which of course goes back to the Golden Rule - which in turn shows up in the second Huna principle, "There Are No Limits." (Or - "We Are All Connected."

Without Cause and Effect, there is really only Responsibility for Condition. Whatever you are experiencing is, bluntly, your own damned fault.

All my venting about critical people still has valid advice to keep them at least a barge-pole's distance - but - if you are feeling anything except a calm, cheerful expectancy...

Changing your mind requires being completely responsible for your own condition - as well as everyone else's. Nobody caused your emotional reaction except yourself. Get over it. Start loving them back.

And yes, now metaphysics trumps any hard science out there. Thanks to quantum mechanics.

Means we should really study some puppy-dogs to see how to improve our ability to share unconditional love.

Read this a few times through for yourself. See if it doesn't make some major shifts.

Heaven or Hell on Earth - Your Choice

It looks like we are already in Heaven or Hell, depending on our own actions.

(photo: Dystopos)

We don't have to wait for the various preacher's predictions to come true. Or that the Left Behind are already left. (Here's a fitting Sunday sermon.)

Some simple logic you can look up for yourself:

1) The Kingdom of God is Within You. (Luke 17:21)
2) The World is What You Think It is (Serge Kahili King)
3) As within, so without (The Emerald Tablet - loosely translated)

Meaning that if you feel people are being critical of you, perhaps it was you that cast the first stone? Have you been critical of others in the past? So now do you want them to apologize for being critical of you?

The solution is of course to bless all those who you encounter, and to live in grace Now - letting go of all the old mental habits which may have gotten you into some negative state.

The mental habits which have resulted in a positive state (more peace, simplicity, and ease in your life - as well as prosperity, good health) should be encouraged and re-enforced.

No, you should reject what I say. Unless and until you prove it for yourself, it won't be worth any more than the (digital) words you see.

But it is a way to live in Heaven right now, instead of waiting for it. Or simply continue the Hell-on-Earth which some say is inevitable.

Of course, most of these quotes above are varied, and have different interpretations. So the logic is able to be disputed. If it is true for you, however, then all the world is open to you.
  • For those straw-splitters among us who consider "kingdom of God" and "kingdom of Heaven" to be different, here's a study of this point.
  • That Huna link shows the controversy about the subject.
  • And the Emerald Tablet only still exists in various translations.
The point is that you can decide on the actions you take, the words you send to others.  In that way, you change the world around you into the one you want.

Your choice.

How to Save Your Own Life by "Losing" Friends and Family

Your life is elevated or "ruined" by the friends and family you keep around you.

(photocredit: merwing littledear)

Just too simple. People have chronic mindsets. These are based on their own fears - chiefly the fear of death or lack of individuality.

People around you attempt to get you to act like they do, or as they want you to, in order to fit their idea of what archetype they think you should be to make their life make sense. ("Sense" being where logic and emotion meet to enable action.)

"Archetype" is Jungian, and I only know the term through my narrow study of Joseph Campbell's Monomyth works. The key point is that it fits again into the Huna concept that "we are all connected, there are no limits." People can be analyzed against the archetypes which Campbell laid out in his myth-cycle. People around you fit into archetypes for your world-view, you fit into archetypes for theirs.

The people around you fit your own world-view, as you are attracting those into your life by what you are thinking, emitting, out-flowing. Yes, that's the old "Law of Attraction." Like the Golden Rule - one variation of it.

People work to get others to fit into their world-view as directing players on a stage in their script. The tools they use to this are laid out in "Get Your Self Scam Free." It's Cialdini and Levenson, chiefly the last.

Having that situation (and knowing its happening) isn't bad, overall, but sometimes you can get caught up with a person who is simply holding you back from achieving the bliss you want in your life. Everything they do irritates and even upsets you. (Meanwhile, you are irritating them with your thoughts - see how this works?) Keep thinking about that person and they will show up in your life as an active bit-part player. Every time.

Because the bulk of humanity is here only for entertainment, they will never understand you if you tried to explain this to them. Factually, they'd just criticize and make less of anything you said or say - as that is their view and routine handling of the world around them.

(And it doesn't mean just because they are brilliant geniuses, this doesn't apply. It applies in spades to people with a powerful intellect that has been mistrained. You expect them to be smarter than that, but they act stupidly with all their cleverness. Politicians and celebrities, especially.)

They can't accept themselves, and are critical internally as well as externally. (They are also routinely sick.)

The best action is to quietly move these people off your lines permanently.

Some steps (see more in "Freedom Is"):
1. Release daily as part of your regular meditations. Let go of all incidents where someone else tried to enforce approval, control, security, or belongingness on you.
2. When you can get up to it, release the fear of Death and loss of individuality.
3. Bless them and envision a perfect life for them - separate from you. (A vision of this would be seeing them off on a cruise ship leaving the harbor, or a rocket to a luxury Mars colony.)
4. In your day to day affairs, quietly move all your business off their lines. Block them on your social networks, filter them out of your email.
5. Bless them every single time you think of them. If any thought comes in, go to "alpha" and release, then send them off on a one-way luxury cruise again in your mind. Be at peace.

This is the key. If you want to have peace in your life, you have to out-flow peace in all your thoughts, emotion, and actions. People who are not peaceful, you are constantly critical of you and what you are doing (it's in every single communication you have with this type of people) simply need to be with people who match their mindset. So let them go.

Family is slightly different, as there are some times the meetings you can't get out of.

In all cases, you don't respond to their critical remarks with other than peace. The old saying, "If you can't think of anything nice to say, then say nothing at all." Smile and nod. Be always constructive in everything you say and do. Release constantly as a habit of getting through life.

Another suggestion is to move to a rural community where you can more easily pick and choose who you deal with on a regular basis.

Meanwhile, make sure you are eating only healthy food (as little-prepared/processed as possible) and getting sufficient sleep at night. Eliminate or limit anything which acts as a drug on your system. Excess sugar, caffeine, etc. Get regular exercise into your life. Visit with and in Nature regularly.

There is a book I've got on my stack to re-publish and re-market, which is Christian Larson's "Ideal Made Real." His first chapter "How to Begin" gives you key points on how to effectively move over to peaceful living as a way of life.

What this is doing is to move you to a different chronic mindset of your own. I suggest you get more peaceful in your life deliberately, as abundance will show up around you as you are demonstrating peace to everyone you meet or deal with. Abundance works better with Peace.

Try this for yourself. See if what I've said is true for you. Let me know how it goes...

PS. How do you spot these people? Do you feel more peaceful in their presence, in their communications with you, when you think of them? If not, then they need more blessing and releasing until you can be at peace with them or even viewing an email from them. Meanwhile, limit your contact and always hold peace in your mind - even stopping to go to "alpha" and release. Again, release constantly.

The Secret, Which Happens After Clearing - Only One Person Knew

There's something left out of  the "Scam Free" book you need to know.


know about transference after clearing - living for others
Clear Lake by MSMcCarthy Photography)
It's the point of living for others.

Maslow found this and called it "Self-Transcendence." It came later than his main hierarchy of needs and is little understood.

HIERARCHY OF NEEDS
ST = Self-Transcendence
Maslow's pyramid - the Hierarchy of Needs

And the people who describe it have trouble with it - because it doesn't follow the laws and means commonly used on the rest of this hard-fought planet.

In that state, people live for everyone else. Their success is your success. This is another clear statement of the Golden Rule again. Which of course goes back to the Huna "There are no limits - we are all connected."

It is what happens when you follow "Freedom Is - (period.)" for your self. Once you become "hootless" about the world as it exists, you start to build the world which might be.

One article says they might even make poor leaders (although they say it needs more study.) Jesus would make a good example of a transcendent leader - you note that the actual organization was left to Paul, his disciples left only Gospels attributed to them (but written hundreds of years after they passed.)

There are other examples of self-transcended individuals, but they are harder to find, as they tend to leave no trace of themselves. No politician has ever or will be transcendent. ("Render unto Caesar...") Most religions are not filled with these. People who found religions are not this way - however close they may become.

The other point you can find, is that people will chose to move in and out of this state in order to get something done or accomplished. Like this writing. The inspiration for it doesn't write the words, but does tend to "sit on my shoulder" and dictate the words.

You go Clear by releasing everything that's valued, and then keep living on this planet in a transcendent state. Anything and everything you need comes to you, and living becomes a complete joy - effortless. Because you are no longer living for yourself, but are living to help others improve their lives.

It's a tough battle, believe me. 99% of the people on this planet only want to be entertained - or so they think. But eventually, everyone here will become self-transcendent. It's just going to take most of them a very, very long time.

What we can do to speed this up is to understand what passes for entertainment, find the systems underneath this, and then produce works which will move people toward that goal. Shakespeare was probably the best at this, although Dickens may have been well along this line, as was Asimov. Any over-prolific author is in this area, simply because that much imagination has to be tapped into regularly, which keeps them in tune with the spiritual.

Shakespeare has all sorts of hidden data in his works, which are quoted as much or more than Aesop. (If you wanted a great project, start translating these into modern English - enlightening, and a great way to learn writing.)

The best explanation of self-transcendence was found in "Personality & Spirituality" blog:
Maslow noticed that many of them frequently have, and deliberately seek, some other kind of experience. Something extraordinary.
Maslow termed these peak experiences. They are profound, life-altering moments of love, understanding, happiness, bliss. They are moments in which one feels radically more whole, more completely alive, more aware of truth, beauty, goodness, and so on.
Self-actualizing people have many such peak experiences and eventually feel inspired to actively seek them, extend them and stabilize them. Hence, Maslow added the goal of self-transcendence as the final level, the capstone of the pyramid. The desire is to go beyond our ordinary human level of consciousness and experience oneness with the greater whole, the higher truth, whatever that may be.

You can see this is also described in the first chapter of Lao Tzu's Tao - "The Way." There are no words to describe or define what occurs there. That entire book is an attempt to do so. (Not too surprising that it's probably a compilation, much like Aesop's fables.)

The approach is to live your life from there on out constantly in a state of Zen, living in the "Zone" continually, going from one Peak Experience to the next.

Everything that happens in your life is an inspiration to yet another revelation.

Those are the four ways of analysis found in Huna, which (like releasing) become an always-on approach to living (subjective, objective, symbolic, holistic).

And there you have it.

Dumped a ton of stuff on you to digest today.

You're welcome.

Again - it really boils down to this:

Just Be.

The Acid Test to Anything: Did You Help?

Where Win-Win-Win and Golden Rule Intersect

The Golden Rule by Norman Rockwell at UN

It's not how much money you make, it's how you use that money. It's not the amount of people who will review your book or follow your tweets - it's how much you help them improve their lives.

This universe is actually built from an inter-connected scene. Everything, everyone affects everyone else and everything else. And this is why some version of the "Golden Rule" shows up in every major religion and philosophy on this planet.

Jesus said nothing new when he told people to treat others as you expect to be treated. He was just quoting older sayings in a new version.

Similarly, a current Midwestern phrase is related: "What goes around, comes around."  Just look at it carefully. As you act, so are things acted toward you. As you react, you cause reactions around you. Proactive people live less stressful lives - because they are acting responsibly within their environment.

Napoleon Hill, in his "Think and Grow Rich" had it as: "You have to give before you can get."

This is also the old Steven Covey adage (who was really quoting other sources, again) where he recommended that every action and decision you made should be pointed toward achieving a "win-win-win" outcome. Both you and your customer and everyone involved wins something out of your exchange.

You hear in the "news" about ripoffs and frauds - as if this was common place and involved in every commerce transaction. As usual, they are concentrating on a handful and minority of controversial exchanges. (And by concentrating on the controversial, and chaotic, you'll also see that only a small minority trusts any mainstream media to tell the truth.)

Any small business owner or operator knows that your business continues to survive and get new customers only at the whim of neighborhood goodwill.

Where you do have a scam, they try to get around this concept, but the law (natural law, not man-made) eventually catches up with them and shuts them down. Look up anyone who tried to do this as a regular operation in their own business - they don't exist after a few years.

We are all connected. Those who work to help others constantly and improve the value in their lives will profit in turn. (Profit is just increased value in your own life or business, isn't it?)

In order to get something for yourself, you need to help others achieve it for themselves.

Look at Ray Kroc of MacDonald's fame. He helped an industry expand, serving decent-quality food at decent prices. And made untold millionaires from his suppliers as the result of his "millions sold."

Sam Walton of Wal-Mart helped everyone succeed around him, serving a whole set of people who were underserved by the nationwide chains at the time. By pushing the idea that "you'll sell a lot more for a little less" - he made the entire industry realize that giving greater value to the customer would result in greater profit to the store. Suppliers who built warehouses close to his were able to take advantage of his own "hub-and-spoke" distribution lines - saving them money on shipping - which could be passed on as lower prices - which in turn resulted in greater profits.

Win-win-win.

All based on helping.

So the acid test: Did You Help?

The Saints Walk Among Us

Who said Jesus hasn't already returned?

Urban Saint

There's a concept of "living in grace" - which is a high ideal to reach for, if not the highest personal ideal one can hold.

This state is where releasing takes you to. Perpetual, always-on grace.

But we can learn many more things from Jesus' life. Sure, that whole martyr thing made its point. What if instead, we created a small army of people - say, 1% of the population who learned and lived as Jesus did - bringing peace to everyone they met, healing people as they could, and spreading the word that one could live in grace all the time, no strife, complete abundance?

Some hold (and I couldn't tell you right now where this came from) that as little as 1% will make intense changes on this planet.

But it isn't following that failed "hand-out" scene that American society has foisted off on government. Sure, charity works - from individuals. It's really the teach a person to fish instead of constantly handing out fish.

See, the point of grace is to earn it for yourself. It's not an "over there" scene or something you can get from dressing up and visiting a certain building once a week.

You have to live this stuff 24-7-365. As you practice, you become permanently perfect.

Releasing, meditation - these form the road to always-on grace.

All I say is that it's very probable that the saints already walk among us - and when we believe it, we will see it.

How many have you seen recently? Time to become one? Better late than never...

Life Secrets According to Matthew and Jesus

New life from old texts.


photocredit: http://dukhrana.com/

I've been doing some work recently to find the most original versions of Jesus' teachings I can. Because the original texts weren't written in Greek, but ancient Syriac Aramaic. Fortunately, the early Church split into two distinct organizations, and the Eastern one didn't modify their texts (much) at all. The Western one "evolved" into our more modern King James Version and so on.

The point was, as in "What Jesus Really Said", to get a tool where these basic statements Jesus actually said were available for study - free from the bulk of the various interpretations and commentary.

So I got one of more basic translations (Etheridge) and pulled the phrases which aligned to the "Q" (the work which was derived from the common phrases in Matthew, Luke, and Mark Gospels). (Today I found this PDF based solely on Eastern Peshitta, so knock yourself out.)

Even though there is more work to do in this area, I thought to give you this nice little tool. It gave me inspirational dreams last night, which is always a great side benefit.

(The first paragraph comes from Judge Thomas Trowards, "Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning", which is found in the "Complete Thomas Troward Collection.")

- - - -


The Teaching of Jesus – The Master Keys to Understanding Life

“The teaching of Jesus, whether by word or deed, may, therefore, be summed up as follows. He says in effect to each of us: What you really are in essence is a concentration of the ONE Universal Life-Spirit into conscious Individuality if you live from the recognition of this Truth as your starting-point, it makes you Free. You cannot do this so long as you imagine that you have one center and the Infinite another you can only do it by recognizing that the two centers coincide, and that That which, as being Infinite, is incapable of centralization in Itself, finds center in you. ”
Judge Thomas Troward
  1. But I say unto you, that you shall not rise up against evil: but if any one strike thee on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.
  2. Love your enemies; bless them who execrate you; do that which is good to him who hates you; and pray for them who lead you with a chain, and persecute you.
  3. Be ye therefore perfect, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect!
  4. All therefore that you will that men shall do unto you, so also do you unto them
  5. But why dost thou look at the rod that is in thy brother's eye, while the rafter that is in thine own eye thou dost not consider? Or how sayest thou to thy brother, Permit that I draw forth the rod from thine eye, and, behold, there is a rafter in thine own eye? Hypocrite! draw forth first the rafter from thine own eye, and then thou wilt see to draw forth the rod from thy brother's eye.
  6. Leave them: they are blind leaders of the blind; but if a blind man shall lead a blind man, both shall fall into the ditch.
  7. Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks it is opened.
  8. But seek first the kingdom of Aloha and his righteousness, and all these shall be added unto you.
  9. Lay not up for yourselves treasures in the earth, a place where moth and rust corrupt, and where thieves dig through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where no moth and no rust corrupt, and where thieves do not dig through and steal. For where your treasure is, there also your hearts are.
  10. ENTER in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and spacious the way, that leads to destruction; and they are many who go therein. How small is the gate, and narrow the way, that leads unto salvation; and they are few who find it!
  11. No man can serve two lords; for the one he will hate, and the other he will love, or the one he will honor, and the other he will neglect: you cannot serve Aloha and riches.
  12. The harvest is great, and the laborers few. Ask, therefore, from the Lord of the harvest, that he would thrust forth laborers into his harvest.
  13. And as you go, proclaim and say that the kingdom of heaven hath drawn near.
  14. And when you enter into the house, invoke peace for the house; and if the house be worthy, your peace shall come upon it; but if it be not worthy, your peace upon yourselves shall revert.
  15. LO, I send you forth as sheep among wolves...
  16. You shall not fear, therefore, from them; for there is nothing covered which shall not be revealed, nor secret which shall not be known.
  17. Whosoever will find his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it.
  18. But he who is great among you, let him be your servitor. For whosoever will exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever will abase himself shall be exalted.
  19. If there were in you faith as a grain of mustard, you should say to this mountain, Pass hence, and it would pass away.
  20. For unto him who hath shall be given, and it shall be added to him; but he who hath not, that also which he hath shall be taken from him.
  21. Jeshu answered him, Thou shalt not kill, neither commit adultery, nor steal, neither shalt thou witness false testimony; and honor thy father and thy mother, and love thy neighbor as thyself.
  22. If thou wilt become perfect, go, sell thy possession and give to the poor, and there shall be for thee a treasure in heaven: and come after me.
  23. Again I say to you, that it is easier for a camel to enter through the aperture of a needle, than the rich to enter into the kingdom of Aloha.
  24. And every man who hath relinquished houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, on account of my name, shall receive a hundred- fold, and shall inherit the life of eternity, Many however are first who shall be last, and the last first.

Thinking like a Christ - easier than you consider

It's just too easy to think like Jesus did. Really, we work too hard at keeping ourselves from doing just that.

Dr. Augusto Cury, a leading psychiatrist and author, did a complete psychological study of Jesus and turned as a result from an acknowledged atheist into a believer.  He tells about his progress and what he found in this 215 page book.

What he was fascinated with the impact a healthy mind can have on emotions and life. After many years of research and founding The Intelligence Institute, he concluded:
  • Every person is a genius because everyone has the power to think.
  • Harnessing "mind power" has been scientifically proven to enhance a person's physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
  • The human act of thinking is the greatest wonder of the universe.
This book is simply an approach to enable people to discover for themselves though Cury's 12-point program  exactly how they can get the benefits of a healthy mind into their own lives.

He uses Jesus as an example frequently throughout the book, as the mental profile he completed gave true insight into not just the Son of Man, but every person who walks or lives on this planet.

My own interest was in how he described the method where Jesus taught people how to think. (This starts up on about page 33, part of Principle 2 chapter.) Jesus taught by example. Where he was broke all the time, having no house or immediate support, he was rich in spirit and so was constantly supported by all who met him. But it goes beyond charisma.

Cury points out,
"His mind was so admirable that he transformed his quality of life into a garden even though his world was falling down around him and he was surrounded by downpours of discrimination....

"The young Galileans who followed him, although unsophisticated, anxious, and lacking power and self-control, learned lessons that kings, politicians, and intellectuals didn't learn. He taught them to recognize their limits, to not be afraid of their failures, and to control their thoughts."
That is an admirable skill few have today - or have had in the recent centuries. Too often we are lead by people who are too human, regardless of how they are promoted in their election process. They cannot even routinely inspire people, let alone allow them to change their thinking process and evolve their life to one of fullness.

While several modern self-help books, CD's and DVDs come closer to this reality - it is perhaps the reason that we need to listen to these over and over to really get their points. Because we don't have a singular and dramatic persona in our life where we can take this example.

Cury gives us a start with his 12-point program that anyone can follow in their own lives - with nothing more than this book. But he also gives us intimate knowledge of how one of the greatest philsophers to ever walk this earth might confront and resolve the various situations we each face in life.

I recommend this right up there with all the greats of self-help. And along with any Scripture studies you might be doing or considering.

We cannot do less than we already are. So any opportunity to let our own light shine is one we should grasp with both hands and start running with it toward our own goalposts.
