You have to give permission...

I know I've covered this ground before, but recent bits of life and blog have teased me into visiting again... Here you are, in the center of things, wearing a nice little human body, a bit of matter so infinitesimally small that it barely shows up on the most detailed star charts... And yet, utterly unique in the Universe... Besides that, it is your connection to the physical reality of Time and Space. And that makes you very powerful in the Universal scheme of things! Physically, we are small... Sign in to see full entry.

Hiyo, Silver! Awayyyyy!

Inspiration is a wonderful ride! But it is also useful to remember that the sources of the inspirational experience are many and various, and not all clear or clean communications of Truth, just because they are coming from Beyond our own perceived boundaries. One of the great fallacies of human/spirit dynamics! It actually takes more power and ability to manage energies, to have one's own body, than not, and among those who can't 'afford' their own bodies in which to experience and manifest in...

Communication... a conversation about channeling, and other things...

I was thinking about channeling, and inspiration, and insight, and where we get our information and ideas from. I have never been a great reader of books on the topic of the psychic or spiritual, preferring to discover rather than be told. As if that's possible, as if there's a difference... Anyway, there have been a few books from which I have gathered pieces of the cosmic Puzzle, or have been reminded of some I already had in my bag, and was forgetting to use. One of them is the Bible, Old and... Sign in to see full entry.

See you later!

It's almost certain that living with other people is going to rub off-- we share energy with those we are close to, and whether it is 'postive' or 'negative' energy, what isn't our own tends to get stuck, to make blockages and interference in our own energy systems. How do we experience that influence? As distraction, confusion, lack of get-up-and-go... maybe a sense of being out of control, or just plain stuck... The feeling that it is time for a vacation! When we take ourselves out of the... Sign in to see full entry.

Vocabulary Lesson

Hello! That is one of the most important words in a spiritually-aware vocabulary. Consider all that it says in those two simple syllables of English... Two syllables that, whatever their orgins, nowadays mean nothing but-- hello! That makes it a wonderfully neutral word. And in its neutrality, it conveys, simply, acknowledgement on neutral ground: I am here, you are there... I am me, you are you... We have come together and now share a space of place and time and consciousness... I acknowledge... Sign in to see full entry.

Taking Apart A Part

Sincerity Anna made a point that started the month and the day well: (Still on the Mac, so you may have to c/p this link) http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/SincerityAnna7772/ and inspired me to return to the topic of Parts and the Parts model of human consciousness. Here's the basic model: Every belief that a person, at some time, decided was a Truth worth remembering, became stored in a little package comprised of everything that person was at the moment of the decision. It is, in a sense,... Sign in to see full entry.

Ego, once again...

So many philosophies put down Ego as a bad thing. Ego is not a bad thing in my Universe. It is a necessary and natural thing that happens when God expresses Itself in the form of a sentient body housing a growing, learning soul. Your Ego is, simply, your identity: how you perceive yourself to be. In itself, it is not a problem, it is one of the children of your being here, now, in a body, living a life as a human being. It's part of the human side. Like any child, it requires a certain amount of... Sign in to see full entry.

Light & Dark Are Not Opposites

There's the old debate, going back historically to the roots of dualism, in the ancient near east, where the Mithraists created the first religion (that we know of) around the dualistic concept of the world as a battleground between Good and Evil. There's a difference between a world of that sort of absolute duality, and the simple fact that so much of our world is structured as dichotomies; Night and Day, Man and Woman, Old and Young, Left and Right... We tend to perceive things as paired... Sign in to see full entry.

"Am I forgiven?"

When I was a kid of around 5, I lived with my grandparents. Grandpa was a lot of fun--He played with me and read me the Sunday funny papers... let me ride in front of him on the saddle when he rode horseback... Sometimes, in those days before seat-belts, and before it was really appreciated how dangerous cars can be, he let me sit on his lap while he drove, and "help him drive." There was this thing he did sometimes, to amuse us when he drove, of jerking the wheel to pretend we were going into... Sign in to see full entry.

Marbles and Inner Peace

I've been taught two different meditation forms that have each been quite useful and healthful when I practice with any regularity. Transcendental Meditation, developed by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, from what he learned from his guru, Dev, was introduced to the West by The Beatles in the 60s. It uses repetition of a mantra-- the sound of a word with no intrinsic meaning-- to beguile the busy-ness of the mind, and provide a focus for being not busy. It carries the meditator away from the stresses of... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I've been asking the Universe to explain itself to me since I was about 11 years old. I asked specifically how to reconcile God with Science. Now and then, I seem to tune in on an answer. All that I write here represents not Truth, but what I believe to be true.I have my reasons, and I like to believe, my reason. ///Everything of my own words and/or pictures that I post on Blogit is copyright by CLRedding 1972-present, all rights reserved.///
