Yes, I think that’ s specifically what we were saying this morning. The
soul automatically , because of what it has become, is like a cork in water
and automatically gravitates in the field of consciousness to that with which
it identifies. And therefore, destiny is ultimately perfect. “That’ s correct:
resist” (T rue). That’ s correct, yep. Automatically . So, the soul automatically
gravitates to what it’ s attracted to, to that with which it is compatible. Just
like the dog ran to love—if I hated dogs, I don’ t know , he might have
shrunk of f, or he might have tried . . . I don’ t know what he would have
done. I should ask him. OceanofPDF .comCHAPTER 10
Aim for the Highest Level of
Compassion
Two hundred is the dividing line between force and power; 540—is that the
difference between ego and one’ s higher calling? Well, don’ t forget, these
points are arbitrary—200 was not arbitrary; the calling it 200 was arbitrary . It was obvious that the world could be divided into that which makes you
go strong and that which makes you go weak. There is an interesting book called Red W orld/Gr een W orld by a lady
named Mar garet Chaney , and she said that there’ s Red people and Green
people, and there’ s Red foods and Green foods. Well, she was just using
that as a way of speaking. She’ s saying that people divide up into those
which react positively to certain kinds of food and those which react
negatively , and she grouped out two groups. There are the Red people—
they respond with kinesiology positively to the following foods, and there’ s
the Green people, and they respond positively to the following foods and
they react negatively to the other foods. So her thesis was that Green people
will get sick if they keep eating Red food all the time and can’ t seem to get
well. And when they discover what they’re eating is inimical to their health,
they will regain their health. And now she’ s worried because a lot of
medications are coming out in generic. So, the brand name—let’ s say
you’re a Red person—and the brand name tests Red, so you say , “Penicillin
G is good for me, yes. I’m a Red person and that’ s a Red product, right? Okay , so it’ s harmonious with my ener gy,” or whatever . Now they put out a
generic brand of the same thing, only it tests out Green. So, now you’re a
Red person taking a Green pill, and this penicillin is not helping you. So
she’s worried about you—what are we going to do now? The generics are
coming out, and they are coming out in a dif ferent category . So kinesiology
can lead you into all kinds of conundrums, huh?We just numerically called it 200 because that worked out as far as the
logarithms go; 540 is the level of Unconditional Love. It just happens to be
there. Love is at 500, and we say you can be very loving but still have
conditionalities. When does Love become Unconditional? So, when Love is
Unconditional, we found it calibrates at 540. Christ Consciousness
Have we ever calibrated the level before Christ appeared and then right
after Christ appeared? Let’ s see. “W e have permission to ask this question”
(True). “The appearance of Christ on the consciousness changed the overall
level of the consciousness of mankind: resist” (T rue). “It raised it: resist”
(True). “When we say ‘Christ,’  we mean the appearance of His teaching:
resist” (T rue). “W e don’ t mean the appearance of His physicality: resist”
(True). So, we’re not talking about necessarily when the Baby Jesus sat there in
the swaddling clothes, or something. “Before the birth of Christ, the
consciousness level of mankind was over , oh boy , over 90: resist” (T rue). “Over 95: resist” (Not true). “Before the birth of Christ, the consciousness
level of mankind as a whole was over 95: resist” (T rue). “96: resist” (Not
true). About 95. Let’ s see, where’ s 95? Man lived in fear . “After the birth of
Christ, the consciousness level of mankind increased: resist” (T rue). “Increased over 5 points: resist” (T rue). “10 points: resist” (T rue). “15
points: resist” (T rue). “20 points: resist” (T rue). “30 points: resist” (T rue). “40 points: resist” (Not true). “Just the physicality of Jesus Christ raised the
consciousness level of man over 40 points: resist” (T rue). The physicality of
the presence of Christ on the planet raised the consciousness level of
mankind 40 points. “The teachings of Christ as they spread through the
Roman Empire continued to increase the level of man’ s consciousness:
resist” (T rue). “The spread of Christianity through the Roman Empire
increased the consciousness level of mankind another 20 points” (T rue);
“Another 30 points” (T rue); “Another 40 points” (Not true). The birth of Christ as a physicality apparently was like a window to God
and radiated that ener gy, jumped it 40 points, which is enormous. The
teachings of Christ, then, radiated out, and were carried throughout the
Roman Empire, and raised the consciousness level of mankind further .The history of the evolution of the Roman Empire is quite interesting
from the viewpoint of consciousness. Some of the Roman emperors were
really quite advanced, almost more advanced than modern man, recognizing
the equality of man; recognizing the right of the slave to a trial, a judicial
trial; tolerance for all religions, except with the proviso that you also had to
acknowledge the Roman gods. So, the Roman gods showed your allegiance
to Rome as an empire and to the emperor , but so long as you did that, you
could worship any gods you wanted. So it was pretty evolved. And it’ s
interesting because it is the foundation of our Western culture. I think it
helps advance one’ s spiritual awareness and consciousness because it
increases your tolerance for that which dif fers from yourself—when you
sort of become aware of how consciousness evolved and how the evolution
of that consciousness expressed itself in cultures as they spread out across
the world and the impact of the human experience. So, in a way , you’re sort
of owning yourself as the totality of mankind. There was certainly a period
in the evolution of this consciousness of owning the self as the Self and
totality of all of mankind. And so, understanding the evolution of humanity
as culture and as it expresses itself over time can have a broadening ef fect
and make one a little broader , which means less critical of that which dif fers
from yourself, which makes the ego a little easier to transcend—because
you sort of get of f rigid positionalities as you become more sophisticated
and see how consciousness evolved and expressed itself through the various
religions and cultures. We become tolerant of that which is dif ferent than
ourself. Of course, what we’re shocked by is the egocentricity of it and the
cost in society , but we can perhaps understand how it could evolve. So to be
compassionate toward all of life means to be really , relatively sophisticated
and educated about how consciousness evolved throughout time and then
expressed itself in society in its various ways. As we said before, to
understand society is to understand the ego. So, you are not wasting your
time in studying history or sociology , because you’re seeing how the ego
outcrops itself . . . what do you call it? Out-something-or -other itself—out-
something itself, out-pictures itself—how’ s that? How it expresses itself
collectively . The collective ego, then, is the individual ego projected
outward and expressed in human society on a grand scale where it’ s easy to
see. [I was asked,] “Y ou indicate that there were something like 294,000
calibrations. Are the results of those calibrations available somewhere to be
a resource?” The book I’m working on now—well, I am finishing up I, the
book I. The original manuscript was revised, and now I’m revising the
revision. Then I will have to correct the revised revision . . . but in the
meantime, during the intervals, the book I think I’m going to call Radical
Reality [T ruth vs. Falsehood]— in it we do about a thousand calibrations,
going back through history—from Nero, Caesar , Caligula; through more
recent history; through Nazi regimes; and into recent events, from
Gorbachev to current rulers. I can give you examples. For instance, FDR
was 499; Churchill was 510; most American presidents are in the mid-400s. Signers of the Declaration of Independence were about 510; the
Constitution of the United States is 700. So, we can go back through the
Magna Carta, we go through the evolution of democracy from the
beginning of time. We calibrate theologians from the founders of the
Christian church on down. We go through all the major events in human
history; and current life, from MTV—it calibrates about 190—to computer
games; and musicians—the great musicians, the popular musicians, and the
classical musicians. The great classical musicians were generally in the
500s; some were higher . The great architects—we calibrated the great
cathedrals of the world. When I traveled in Europe, what attracted me was to go from cathedral to
cathedral. They calibrate around 700, so you can see why they are
attractive. To travel through the country of France and see Chartres
Cathedral arising above the level of the hayfields way of f in the distance is
an unfor gettable experience. So we do the great cathedrals and compare it,
let’s say , with the Crystal Cathedral currently in Los Angeles. We did all the
major spiritual writers throughout history , of ancient and recent times, in the
various books of the Bible and various things like that; various spiritual
traditions and churches and teachers and gurus. We have pretty much
covered all of human society . The scientists, the writers, the inventors, the
great industrialists, current politicians. I think the highest calibration we got
for a current head of state is the current president of Mexico. Surprisingly
enough, the current president of Mexico calibrates around 560 or
something, very , very high—the highest on the planet. And what does he
talk about? He talks about cooperation, mutuality—see, he’ s not against
winning and losing; he is not against make-wrong. He’ s not even into make-wrong. He’ s, “Here’ s where we are at and let’ s see how we can improve
from there,” so that everyone benefits. Well, that is a very advanced
spiritual concept, that everyone benefits and with an idea of integrity and
fairness and equality; and the same time, everything legal and cooperative. So a lot can be learned, and therefore I think it’ s a worthy enterprise. The negatives, of course, in current society are rather obvious to anybody
who’ s spiritually sophisticated at all. They hardly need calibration. Then we
calibrated a lot of the great criminals, famous criminals of ancient times to
find out . . . In other words, we’re trying to get a topography of the
evolution of mankind over recorded time. Where is Jack the Ripper? He’ s at
70. Where’ s Bin Laden? He’ s at 70. Where is a dinosaur? A dinosaur is at
70. The instinct of the dinosaur and the instinct of this person are the same. Jack the Ripper dismembers and rips to death its prey . I mean, it’ s almost
identical; it’ s almost like a dinosaur spirit got into a human body , you know
what I’m saying? I begin to wonder—is there a crossover? So anyway , it’s
an interesting work in that we are trying to develop a topography , a dif ferent
dimension of understanding human consciousness and its expression as
society , from Heinrich Himmler in World War II to Vicente Fox in today’ s
world. We did a lot of movie stars, famous singers, songs, and find out what
their general range [is], and then there are exceptions. Louis Armstrong,
way up in the 500s. The capacity to be loving at all times and in all places
apparently was the characteristic. So, it’ s just interesting, because you learn things because you see
everything in a dif ferent dimension now . And as you see the calibration, you
get, “Oh, I see. I get . . . oh, yeah, I see.” It’ s like you get greater depth
spiritually in comprehending the totality of human evolution, which in the
net ef fect is to develop a compassion for it, as almost an experiment of
creation. It’ s almost as though the evolution of life on this planet is almost
an experiment—to see where, if you let it loose without any guidance or
controls, what does it do? It ends up as a mollusk at the bottom of the sea
that creates 40 enzymes at one time. And it also creates saints—the same
life, but is it the same life ener gy or a dif ferent one, you know what I’m
saying? That leads to rather profound questions. The Karmic Shift of MankindWho was responsible for the massive shift in 1986? I’ve never fully
investigated it. I just assumed that the collective positive karma of mankind
had crested at that level. It happened to be at the time of the Harmonic
Conver gence. It happened to be at the time when Gorbachev pretty much
pulled the blocks out from underneath the Russian USSR, atheistic empire. It was also the time of other major events which were concomitant. You see,
when you go beyond causality , then you see that, let’ s say , a positionality
here can radiate forth in the world of manifestation in multiple ways
without one thing here necessarily being the cause  of this. In other words, a
positionality which surfaces in this way , it doesn’ t mean that the dissolution
of monolithic Communism was caused  by anything outside of itself, but it
occurred at the same time. There is undoubtedly more to the story . We’ll ask
it in a general way . First of all, I know there’ s more to the story . “There’ s
more to the story: resist” (T rue). Thank you. My own feeling was that it
came from higher dimensions as a result of the consequence of positive
accumulated karma of mankind. “That’ s correct: resist” (T rue). Well, we
won’ t go into the details of it. It would be as though the collective karma of
mankind as a whole had reached the point where it had crossed that
collective. Perhaps the last great finale of negativity was really World War II, in
which the negativity , satanic ener gy, was massive. That caused almost a
shock, but then, into the shock came that which was really more Luciferic
in that it was seeking power rather than destruction—in the form of
Communism and the USSR, which was really seeking power although it
took expression as cruelty , and Stalin really was responsible for more
deaths than Hitler . Nevertheless, it more or less ran its course. And of
course, it was Gorbachev—if you calibrate Gorbachev’ s heart chakra, it’ s
extremely high—so Gorbachev pulled the correct stops out, and the thing
collapsed of itself without a shot. Gorbachev did not fire a shot. So, the
West with all of its brave talk about “the war against Communism”—it was
not the war against Communism that defeated Communism. It was the
stops were pulled out by Gorbachev . Let’ s see what Gorbachev’ s heart is at. “We have permission: resist” (T rue). “Gorbachev’ s heart is over 540: resist”
(True); “560” (Not true); “550” (T rue). Wow. So, those people like Gandhi and Mandela and Gorbachev , people
who changed all political history , their power came from a heart chakra at
550 and over . That is encouraging, because then it means increasing one’ sown capacity of lovingness has the capacity to undo the negativity of the
world. In fact, it has the capacity to collapse whole empires. That which
collapsed the USSR was the radiance of the heart chakra of one man. However , that one man also represented something else that we write
about, and that is when we talk about attractor ener gy fields. We say that
each of these ener gy fields has an attractor pattern behind it. That brought
us to describing what we call “critical factor analysis,” one of the values of
kinesiology . Many interacting systems are so complex, they are not capable
of comprehension by the human intellect, nor by an assisted computer . A
computer is limited to the Newtonian paradigm. It cannot be programmed
for the nonlinear , by definition. Consequently , it can only mimic the
intellect; it cannot mimic human intelligence. In any case, some situations
are so enormously complex, they are beyond comprehension. This is a
problem run into by big governments historically . The complexity of
running a Roman Empire was staggering and, in the end, it just fell of
inertia. All the soldiers just married the local girls and settled down and quit
the army , and that was the end of the Roman Empire. No army could defeat
the Roman Empire. It was the most formidable army the world has ever
seen. It was unconquerable. And the Roman legions ruled all of Europe and
the Mediterranean for a thousand years; it was [an] army invincible that
ruled for a thousand years, and what brought it down—the kiss of a lovely
woman. The soldiers all around Hadrian’ s Wall and all over the place met
the local girls, fell in love with them and got married, and said, “The hell
with it,” and went to farming, and that was the end of the Roman legions. In any complex situation, there is what I call “the critical factor .” In a
giant clockworks, if you know where to touch the giant clockworks, you
can stop the entire clockworks by knowing precisely; the clockworks is so
complex that even a master watchmaker can’ t figure it out. The same with
an engineer . You see a locomotive running down the track with a hundred
cars behind it—there’ s an enormous amount of force. But if you know
where to touch the control in the cab, the engineer ’s cab, if you know where
to touch it, you can stop the whole freight train. And so, if correctly
positioned, then, knowing which of the pick-up sticks to pull out, the whole
thing collapses; but you have to know which one. Gorbachev was there and
Mandela was there. Each one was in a certain position. They also had a
certain amount of power , because each one of them calibrates around 550. In all of them, the power emanates from the heart. So the power of Love,then, is transformational. As we saw with the birth of Christ, it jumped the
calibration level of mankind 40 points, just the physicality being here, and it
jumped another 40 points when His teachings began to cross the Roman
Empire, and it totally changed Europe—the future of Europe and Western
civilization—for all time. So, an Avatar is one whose teachings and birth and presence
recontextualized the significance of all of life, for all of mankind,
throughout thousands of years. That’ s who we call an “A vatar .” It’s not the
same as like the Avatar Used Book Company that you see running around
town. Avatar —I always get a kick out of people using the word avatar  in
the advertising of some program or something, because they don’ t
understand what Avatar is. Avatar is of such enormous power that it changes
all of mankind for thousands of years henceforth. It is the ideal by which
everything else is measured. Every action of mankind, every court decision,
every headline in the newspaper is unconsciously , if not consciously ,
measured according to the teachings of the Buddha or Christ or Muhammad
or so. Muhammad calibrated at 700. You see, Buddha was 1,000; Christ was
1,000; Krishna was 1,000. All the great enlightened, fabled gurus of ancient
times—Zoroaster at 1,000. Muhammad I’ve repeatedly calibrated at 700, so
there was not the enormous power of spiritual truth to overcome, let’ s say ,
the tribal proclivities of that part of the world, perhaps, so the teaching
breaks through—it breaks through. But don’ t forget, it broke through in
Christianity also in the middle. Certainly , the end times being positioned. The truth of Christianity has broken through by some primitive negativity
and savagery , which expressed itself in that way . And now we see it sort of
delayed in the coming from that part of the world. So, the spiritual person now is confronted with how to contextualize and
comprehend and understand the current world events, but then again, it has
been that way since I have been on the planet. World War I had just expired,
and then came the Great Depression, and then World War II, and I don’ t
know how many wars since then. And so, we’re always confronted with the
spiritual—the seeming  spiritual dilemmas of the expression of the ego, in its
expression as the actions, collective actions, of society . In any case, all any of us can do is within our own heart to reach the
highest level of compassion and understanding and try to recontextualize it
compassionately , because in so doing, we undo it. So each of those who
were able to undo great negativity did so because in a way , their heart wassupported by the hearts of all of us. They just didn’ t reach 550 all by their
lonesome, out there on an ice floe, you know . So, the evolution of the
consciousness of mankind is dependent on all the contributions of all of us. So, each one of us counts, and each one of us counts quite decisively . Each
one of us certainly counts quite decisively . “That’ s a fact: resist” (T rue). You know , I’ve always been suspicious of holy-sounding religious
teachings, you know what I’m saying. Holy-sounding religious teachings,
you say , “Yeah, right.” I want to see, is that a fact, or is that not a fact? The Harmony of the Universe
There’ s the question of where astrology , for instance, fits into this whole
picture. Well, if the universe is one karmic whole, one karmic oneness, then
all that’ s within the universe, including its physical expressions as the
planetary systems, et cetera, is part and parcel of that harmony , huh? Therefore, the planets are also in harmony with that universality . I would
see it that, from a high level—we’ve said that archangels calibrate 50,000
and up, and you realize that we’re talking about logarithmic progression
here—one archangel at 50,000 that even thinks of you is likely to knock
you out of your body for some 20 or 30 years. And you’re lucky to breathe
again. Well anyway , so from some very higher level of Divinity , then . . . let’s say , if everything is the interaction of ener gy fields, which can be
represented symbolically as an attractor field, that means that all things are
therefore in harmony . So, I don’ t see a constellation as causing something
within human experience on this planet. I see a third factor out here. Because of this third factor , this constellation is in this position and this
event is happening commonly within the human experience, but this
astrologic position is not causing the human experience. Both the human
experience and the astrologic positionalities are expressing. So, if it is the
time for great harvesting, let’ s say , that which is supportive of life in all of
its expressions is expressing itself astrologically this way and has greater
crops on this planet at this time, right? And then, at a later time in the cycle,
the harvesting goes down and the astrologic position at that time is
different. So, to explain the harmony of the universe, which is consistent with the
concept of the holographic universe and also the nonlinear dimensions of
reality , it isn’ t that “this” on this side of the universe is causing  “this,” but itis concordant; and those of you who are familiar with advanced theoretical
physics know that the spin of an electron on . . . and the spin of an electron
in another part of the universe—this one is not causing  the spin of this
electron, but if this one stops and reverses, so does this, but there’ s no
connection between the two of them. Which means that which you want to
call “cause” is really just a terminology , a verbalization and a concept, and
not a reality . But if you want to say there is a cause, the cause would then be
outside both the electrons and that which causes this electron to go this way
and this one, this way . So, this electron is not causing this. So, to me, an
astrologic position does not cause  pots and pans to break, but the timing of
pots and pans breaking is simultaneous with that but not caused by that, you
understand? Simultaneity does not mean causality . Just as peace appearing
on the earth and all people praying for peace—it doesn’ t mean necessarily
that the praying for the peace is causing  the peace. But the appropriate time
is an appropriate time for all things. And the appropriate timing of peace
appearing and the appropriate time of praying for peace are probably
simultaneous but not causal. Some Spiritual Sayings Are Not Accurate
There are a lot of sayings, you know , spiritual sayings that are not exactly
accurate. I mean, if they were all accurate, everybody would be enlightened. A lot of them are greatly inaccurate. To say , “All things are possible with
God,” is usually a hypothetical statement to counter somebody else’ s
argument in order to prove that you’re right. In usage, when looked at
exactly , it cannot be so, because that which God cannot be is “not God.”
“All things are possible with God” is usually used to explain or give some
kind of reification of the potential truth of something preposterous and quite
unlikely . However , there is a correct usage to it within the infinite power of
God in another context, in another sense . . . No, it’ s still not true. Because
of the nature of creation itself that each thing becomes the essence of its
own potentiality as the fulfillment of its own karma, there can’ t really be the
fulfillment of something else’ s karma, or a bird would turn into a toad. No,
a toad can only become a toad. So, we could say that that which “is” cannot
become that which it is not. It can only be that which it is. That has to do
with the self-identity of reality . The most dif ficult thing to see about in the
enlightened condition—let’ s say , the radical sense of “I”—the thing thatmakes it the most dif ficult to understand is that everything is radically only
that which it is. It sounds like a nonsensical statement, but the ego cannot
deal with anything except creating—cannot make any statement without
creating a duality , thereby negating the reality of that which it is attempting
to describe. Even the word is is incorrect. The radical reality of that which
sits and speaks through this is-ness here is beyond is-ness; it is beyond
beingness. Even a transitive, intransitive verb is incorrect. There is neither a
subject nor a predicate. There is neither a “this” doing a “that,” nor a “here”
as compared to a “there.” Those are all positionalities within mentalization. Those are all mentalizations. No such thing can be. The only thing that’ s
possible is the reality of the cat being absolutely , completely , 101 percent
cat—not caused by anything extraneous to itself. The only absolute
statement of truth that’ s possible is the word I. To say “am,” the suf fix “am”
to “I,” is already a negation of the reality of the truth of “I,” “is-ness,” and
“beingness,” because the radical reality of that which I am is beyond either
“is-ness” or “beingness.” It is beyond existence or nonexistence. All such
terminologies are mentations. So the most dif ficult thing about seeing the
truth of the reality of who you are is the radical identity of the self as the
Self. That which you subjectively experience as Self is that and nothing
else. Then the ego comes in and tries to destroy that realization by adding
all kinds of adjectives, adverbs. “I am that I am” is already deviating from
truth. “Am-ness,” “beingness” itself, is beyond the radical reality of the
truth of that which you really are. Any verb at all is varying from truth. In
fact, any noun is already varying from truth, because each one is adding
something that is not essential to its essence, to that essence, and thereby
blurring the recognition of the radical reality of its essence. To add the word
“am” after “I” is already in error; it’ s already of f the point. Choice: Choose the Highest and Least Selfish
I think what we all tend to do is try to make what seems to be the highest
decision, that which is most beneficial and loving, et cetera. We all try to
make a decision which is, in our view of it, the least selfish. We try to
choose “win-win” over “win-lose.” At the same time, we try to clarify our
perception of the conditions about which we feel we have to make a
decision—whether we’re seeing it in terms of “either/or–ness.” We try to
clarify in our inner mind, so it’ s very complex what our motivations are. Asimple thing like, “Should I pick up a new kitty at the animal shelter?” can
already be quite complex. On the other hand, it can be quite simple because
each and everything, if examined to the full elaboration of which the ego is
capable, becomes extremely complex. There’ s a much easier way to do it. “It’s a good thing to get a nice kitty at the pound: resist” (T rue). We know that having a pet increases longevity . It decreases heart attacks,
drops people’ s blood pressure. I see a lot of depressed people in the of fice,
and I always ask them, “Do you have a pet at home?” “No.” Hmm. Well,
we know that the presence of a pet increases longevity . We know that
they’re therapeutic. We know that they’re very useful in nursing homes. The
nursing homes I liked the best were ones that had dogs running around. If
the nursing home didn’ t have a dog running around, it had a lower
vibration. It did, really . And those which had Christian denominations
running them seemed to have a higher ener gy and vibration. And there were
always friendly dogs running around. So again, it isn’ t that this caused that,
but a higher level of spiritual awareness, whatever , resulted in greater
kindness on the part of the staf f, a higher healing rate. And the presence of
the dog—you can’ t say the dog caused the higher healing rate, but that
which chose to have a dog there saw the importance of love to healing. And
any health-field people who see the importance of love to healing are very
likely to be more capable of bringing about healing in their patients. So
every decision, then, can be seen, of course, from multiple viewpoints. And
that which is most loving is undoubtedly probably what dominates most of
the people on the field of spiritual inquiry . Of course, nowadays we can
calibrate a thing too, but that doesn’ t mean it has to rule you. You know , calibrating things is just verification; it’ s just verification. It’ s
extremely useful. It’ s extremely useful as a research tool. The strangeness
of this particular consciousness here was that it went through a whole great
variety of experiences within the levels of consciousness, and it happened
in a person with a scientific, medical, psychiatric, and psychoanalytic
background. So that the curiosity of the intellect then was—the physician
looked at it and said, “What in the world is that physiologically going on
with the body?” The psychoanalyst wanted to look at it. So, the self-
examination that went on was from the viewpoint which is not exactly
traditional. And the description of the state then was expressed in a form
that expressed the background of the entity . So Power vs. For ce, then, was
coming from the awareness that the scientific world, the world of theNewtonian paradigm, is ruled by logic and reason and science. So, how to
present it, then—first as a Ph.D. dissertation to a university faculty where it
would meet all the strict requirements of a Ph.D. doctoral dissertation—so,
it was first presented there, to the most skeptical academic community to
pass muster there before it went on and began to express itself in the
nonlinear domain. So what I tried to do was create a crossover for that great
block at 499. The great majority of spiritual seekers are in the 400s and
cannot seem to break through that 499 into the 500s. How to make that
bridge comprehensible was really the purpose of the work and the purpose
of the lectures. Certain spiritual information is transformative because it has
within it, innately , such powerful ener gy that merely to hear it already
transforms consciousness. So there is the commitment on the part of this
entity to state all these statements that should be made, knowing that to
merely hear that statement is itself of significance. And we’ll stop very
shortly . “The consciousness level of this community here sitting is over
435” (T rue); “440” (T rue); “442” (T rue); “444” (T rue); “445” (Not true). Four hundred and forty-four—what were we at, 431? We went from 431
to 444. That’ s what we did as a community today . We went from 431 to 444
as a result of just recontextualization of your own spiritual understanding—
just from the material itself, you understand? 431 to 444. The average
lifetime consciousness advances five points. So to go from 431 to 444—13
points—so, that’ s a quite enormous jump. We did that collectively . We did
that collectively . On a certain level, we all own each other . We all own each
other ’s consciousness. We’re all responsible for each other ’s consciousness
—not in a codependent way , but in understanding of the unity of the
consciousness of mankind. Every endeavor that each one of us makes to get
what was just said, it is helping everybody to get what was just said. My
endeavor as a teacher is to try to make it as comprehensible as possible and
defend the good name of God in the process, who has been much maligned
by religion and other people and needs a friend. God needs a friend. God
needs a friend in all of us. Every kind word is the glory of thanking God for
our existence. Your Intention Is the Most Profound Instrument
Any of those things which follow structure and form tend to be in the 400s. Don’ t forget, you are talking about a tool; you’re not talking about theultimate truth that may be revealed as the use of that tool. So many spiritual
practices may calibrate in the 200s, but it would be like calibrating the level
of a shovel, you know . With a shovel you can build the Taj Mahal, so you
can’t say a shovel is a weak instrument. You can build a Taj Mahal or you
can dig your grave, so the shovel is not the whole answer . So, the
consciousness of the person—let’ s say , any particular technique that you’ve
learned—and almost everybody in this room has been around the block a
little bit with dif ferent techniques, dif ferent teachings, dif ferent schools,
different consciousness teachers. The intention, the commitment, the
intention of the seeker is the most profound instrument. So, a person who is
profoundly committed to God and digs with a small shovel will get further
than a person with a small commitment but a major capacity for intellectual
curiosity . Don’ t forget, the intellect itself is greedy , and many people have
many books and have not moved much in their level of consciousness, so
you have to begin to suspect that one is suf fering from intellectual greed. The idea of having read everything and met everybody and known
everybody , and met every guru on the planet, and all, in itself becomes an
addiction. All you have to do is understand the absolute truth of one
sentence, and that’ s sufficient. All you need is one sentence. And so, I say
all spiritual work can start anywhere. You can pick out any place, because
you can unravel the whole sweater from any place on the sweater , isn’ t that
correct? And if you’re willing to be for giving—that alone—all you have to
do is be willing to be for giving everything and anybody , including yourself
and everybody else, no matter where in time or space, including all of
history , and you are already there. So, you don’ t need anything complicated. OceanofPDF .comCONCLUSION
We hope you’ve been enthused and inspired by this book, which was
transcribed from Dr . Hawkins’ s lectures presented in January and February
2002. This book set the stage for Dr . Hawkins’ s evolving and life-changing
work, that encourages, educates, and invites every spiritual aspirant along
the path to Enlightenment. Trust the Truthfulness in what you have read, put
the ideas into practice, and with intention you can realize the Divinity that
is within you and that is the Power of who you truly ar e.
Here are some of the main Truths for you to contemplate and understand
as you go through your day:
On the calibrated Map of Consciousness®, from 1 to 1,000, level 200
is the critical level. Above 200 is that which is pro-life, supports life, and that which is
true. Below 200 is that which is not true, does not support life;
everything that is venomous, hateful, selfish, greedy , and destructive to
others. The Map of Consciousness®, is not showing a duality of good and evil. There are gradations of Love. What we call evil is merely totally
unloving. There is only one variable. The only variable between light and
darkness is there is only light. There isn’ t light and darkness. Light is
either there, or it’ s not there. The light can be very bright, or it can be
very, very dim. When it gets very , very dim, we say it’ s darkness. Certain bits of information have an immense value. Just to have heard
it, to get it, jumps you ahead enormously . Causality is a major roadblock because it blocks the awareness of the
Presence of God, and the purpose of consciousness work is to discover
the Presence of God within.To see through the illusion of causality , there’ s nothing causing
anything out there. Nothing is causing anything else. What you see are
conditions . What holds up spiritual progress is resistance. The main resistance is
the narcissistic core of the ego and its belief in its own sovereignty . Becoming enlightened is really overcoming the claim and the
domination of the ego to maintain its sovereignty . How do you surrender the ego? First, contextualize what ego really is,
that it’ s not evil and that it’ s the persistence of the animal; but
persistence of the animal deters one’ s spiritual evolution and therefore,
the object is to transcend it. The best way to transcend it is to describe
in some detail the actual mechanisms of the ego. For example, the
ego’s attraction and addiction is to the juice it gets out of suf fering and
being mistreated. Radical truth means you’ve got to take the mask of f everything and be
willing to see it for what it is, and now handle it from the viewpoint of
emotional honesty . The way to reach enlightenment is quite simple. First, one chooses it. The subjective reality about which we’re speaking, is in the split
instant of now , the split instant of now is the source of the joy of your
own existence. Because of your Love of God your consciousness grows. As your
consciousness grows, it benefits all of mankind. Every living entity on
this planet benefits from every single degree that your consciousness
advances. Dr. Hawkins often told us that through the repetition of the information
given through reading and listening, a deeper understanding can occur . Read this book over and over again, or watch or listen to the lectures that
are available, and profound insights will appear . Gloria in Excelsis Deo! OceanofPDF .comAPPENDIX

Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        Yes, I think that’ s specifically what we were saying this morning. The
soul automatically, because of what it has become, is like a cork in water
and automatically gravitates in the field of consciousness to that with which
it identifies. And therefore, destiny is ultimately perfect. “That’ s correct:
resist” (T rue). That’ s correct, yep. Automatically. So, the soul automatically
gravitates to what it’ s attracted to, to that with which it is compatible. Just
like the dog ran to love—if I hated dogs, I don’ t know, he might have
shrunk of f, or he might have tried. I don’ t know what he would have
done. I should ask him. OceanofPDF. comCHAPTER 10
Aim for the Highest Level of
Compassion
Two hundred is the dividing line between force and power; 540—is that the
difference between ego and one’ s higher calling. Well, don’ t forget, these
points are arbitrary—200 was not arbitrary; the calling it 200 was arbitrary. It was obvious that the world could be divided into that which makes you
go strong and that which makes you go weak. There is an interesting book called Red W orld/Gr een W orld by a lady
named Mar garet Chaney, and she said that there’ s Red people and Green
people, and there’ s Red foods and Green foods. Well, she was just using
that as a way of speaking. She’ s saying that people divide up into those
which react positively to certain kinds of food and those which react
negatively, and she grouped out two groups. There are the Red people—
they respond with kinesiology positively to the following foods, and there’ s
the Green people, and they respond positively to the following foods and
they react negatively to the other foods. So her thesis was that Green people
will get sick if they keep eating Red food all the time and can’ t seem to get
well. And when they discover what they’re eating is inimical to their health,
they will regain their health. And now she’ s worried because a lot of
medications are coming out in generic. So, the brand name—let’ s say
you’re a Red person—and the brand name tests Red, so you say, “Penicillin
G is good for me, yes. I’m a Red person and that’ s a Red product, right. Okay, so it’ s harmonious with my ener gy,” or whatever. Now they put out a
generic brand of the same thing, only it tests out Green. So, now you’re a
Red person taking a Green pill, and this penicillin is not helping you. So
she’s worried about you—what are we going to do now. The generics are
coming out, and they are coming out in a dif ferent category. So kinesiology
can lead you into all kinds of conundrums, huh. We just numerically called it 200 because that worked out as far as the
logarithms go; 540 is the level of Unconditional Love. It just happens to be
there. Love is at 500, and we say you can be very loving but still have
conditionalities. When does Love become Unconditional. So, when Love is
Unconditional, we found it calibrates at 540. Christ Consciousness
Have we ever calibrated the level before Christ appeared and then right
after Christ appeared. Let’ s see. “W e have permission to ask this question”
(True). “The appearance of Christ on the consciousness changed the overall
level of the consciousness of mankind: resist” (T rue). “It raised it: resist”
(True). “When we say ‘Christ,’  we mean the appearance of His teaching:
resist” (T rue). “W e don’ t mean the appearance of His physicality: resist”
(True). So, we’re not talking about necessarily when the Baby Jesus sat there in
the swaddling clothes, or something. “Before the birth of Christ, the
consciousness level of mankind was over, oh boy, over 90: resist” (T rue). “Over 95: resist” (Not true). “Before the birth of Christ, the consciousness
level of mankind as a whole was over 95: resist” (T rue). “96: resist” (Not
true). About 95. Let’ s see, where’ s 95. Man lived in fear. “After the birth of
Christ, the consciousness level of mankind increased: resist” (T rue). “Increased over 5 points: resist” (T rue). “10 points: resist” (T rue). “15
points: resist” (T rue). “20 points: resist” (T rue). “30 points: resist” (T rue). “40 points: resist” (Not true). “Just the physicality of Jesus Christ raised the
consciousness level of man over 40 points: resist” (T rue). The physicality of
the presence of Christ on the planet raised the consciousness level of
mankind 40 points. “The teachings of Christ as they spread through the
Roman Empire continued to increase the level of man’ s consciousness:
resist” (T rue). “The spread of Christianity through the Roman Empire
increased the consciousness level of mankind another 20 points” (T rue);
“Another 30 points” (T rue); “Another 40 points” (Not true). The birth of Christ as a physicality apparently was like a window to God
and radiated that ener gy, jumped it 40 points, which is enormous. The
teachings of Christ, then, radiated out, and were carried throughout the
Roman Empire, and raised the consciousness level of mankind further. The history of the evolution of the Roman Empire is quite interesting
from the viewpoint of consciousness. Some of the Roman emperors were
really quite advanced, almost more advanced than modern man, recognizing
the equality of man; recognizing the right of the slave to a trial, a judicial
trial; tolerance for all religions, except with the proviso that you also had to
acknowledge the Roman gods. So, the Roman gods showed your allegiance
to Rome as an empire and to the emperor, but so long as you did that, you
could worship any gods you wanted. So it was pretty evolved. And it’ s
interesting because it is the foundation of our Western culture. I think it
helps advance one’ s spiritual awareness and consciousness because it
increases your tolerance for that which dif fers from yourself—when you
sort of become aware of how consciousness evolved and how the evolution
of that consciousness expressed itself in cultures as they spread out across
the world and the impact of the human experience. So, in a way, you’re sort
of owning yourself as the totality of mankind. There was certainly a period
in the evolution of this consciousness of owning the self as the Self and
totality of all of mankind. And so, understanding the evolution of humanity
as culture and as it expresses itself over time can have a broadening ef fect
and make one a little broader, which means less critical of that which dif fers
from yourself, which makes the ego a little easier to transcend—because
you sort of get of f rigid positionalities as you become more sophisticated
and see how consciousness evolved and expressed itself through the various
religions and cultures. We become tolerant of that which is dif ferent than
ourself. Of course, what we’re shocked by is the egocentricity of it and the
cost in society, but we can perhaps understand how it could evolve. So to be
compassionate toward all of life means to be really, relatively sophisticated
and educated about how consciousness evolved throughout time and then
expressed itself in society in its various ways. As we said before, to
understand society is to understand the ego. So, you are not wasting your
time in studying history or sociology, because you’re seeing how the ego
outcrops itself. what do you call it. Out-something-or -other itself—out-
something itself, out-pictures itself—how’ s that. How it expresses itself
collectively. The collective ego, then, is the individual ego projected
outward and expressed in human society on a grand scale where it’ s easy to
see. [I was asked,] “Y ou indicate that there were something like 294,000
calibrations. Are the results of those calibrations available somewhere to be
a resource. ” The book I’m working on now—well, I am finishing up I, the
book I. The original manuscript was revised, and now I’m revising the
revision. Then I will have to correct the revised revision. but in the
meantime, during the intervals, the book I think I’m going to call Radical
Reality [T ruth vs. Falsehood]— in it we do about a thousand calibrations,
going back through history—from Nero, Caesar, Caligula; through more
recent history; through Nazi regimes; and into recent events, from
Gorbachev to current rulers. I can give you examples. For instance, FDR
was 499; Churchill was 510; most American presidents are in the mid-400s. Signers of the Declaration of Independence were about 510; the
Constitution of the United States is 700. So, we can go back through the
Magna Carta, we go through the evolution of democracy from the
beginning of time. We calibrate theologians from the founders of the
Christian church on down. We go through all the major events in human
history; and current life, from MTV—it calibrates about 190—to computer
games; and musicians—the great musicians, the popular musicians, and the
classical musicians. The great classical musicians were generally in the
500s; some were higher. The great architects—we calibrated the great
cathedrals of the world. When I traveled in Europe, what attracted me was to go from cathedral to
cathedral. They calibrate around 700, so you can see why they are
attractive. To travel through the country of France and see Chartres
Cathedral arising above the level of the hayfields way of f in the distance is
an unfor gettable experience. So we do the great cathedrals and compare it,
let’s say, with the Crystal Cathedral currently in Los Angeles. We did all the
major spiritual writers throughout history, of ancient and recent times, in the
various books of the Bible and various things like that; various spiritual
traditions and churches and teachers and gurus. We have pretty much
covered all of human society. The scientists, the writers, the inventors, the
great industrialists, current politicians. I think the highest calibration we got
for a current head of state is the current president of Mexico. Surprisingly
enough, the current president of Mexico calibrates around 560 or
something, very, very high—the highest on the planet. And what does he
talk about. He talks about cooperation, mutuality—see, he’ s not against
winning and losing; he is not against make-wrong. He’ s not even into make-wrong. He’ s, “Here’ s where we are at and let’ s see how we can improve
from there,” so that everyone benefits. Well, that is a very advanced
spiritual concept, that everyone benefits and with an idea of integrity and
fairness and equality; and the same time, everything legal and cooperative. So a lot can be learned, and therefore I think it’ s a worthy enterprise. The negatives, of course, in current society are rather obvious to anybody
who’ s spiritually sophisticated at all. They hardly need calibration. Then we
calibrated a lot of the great criminals, famous criminals of ancient times to
find out. In other words, we’re trying to get a topography of the
evolution of mankind over recorded time. Where is Jack the Ripper. He’ s at
70. Where’ s Bin Laden. He’ s at 70. Where is a dinosaur. A dinosaur is at
70. The instinct of the dinosaur and the instinct of this person are the same. Jack the Ripper dismembers and rips to death its prey. I mean, it’ s almost
identical; it’ s almost like a dinosaur spirit got into a human body, you know
what I’m saying. I begin to wonder—is there a crossover. So anyway, it’s
an interesting work in that we are trying to develop a topography, a dif ferent
dimension of understanding human consciousness and its expression as
society, from Heinrich Himmler in World War II to Vicente Fox in today’ s
world. We did a lot of movie stars, famous singers, songs, and find out what
their general range [is], and then there are exceptions. Louis Armstrong,
way up in the 500s. The capacity to be loving at all times and in all places
apparently was the characteristic. So, it’ s just interesting, because you learn things because you see
everything in a dif ferent dimension now. And as you see the calibration, you
get, “Oh, I see. I get. oh, yeah, I see. ” It’ s like you get greater depth
spiritually in comprehending the totality of human evolution, which in the
net ef fect is to develop a compassion for it, as almost an experiment of
creation. It’ s almost as though the evolution of life on this planet is almost
an experiment—to see where, if you let it loose without any guidance or
controls, what does it do. It ends up as a mollusk at the bottom of the sea
that creates 40 enzymes at one time. And it also creates saints—the same
life, but is it the same life ener gy or a dif ferent one, you know what I’m
saying. That leads to rather profound questions. The Karmic Shift of MankindWho was responsible for the massive shift in 1986. I’ve never fully
investigated it. I just assumed that the collective positive karma of mankind
had crested at that level. It happened to be at the time of the Harmonic
Conver gence. It happened to be at the time when Gorbachev pretty much
pulled the blocks out from underneath the Russian USSR, atheistic empire. It was also the time of other major events which were concomitant. You see,
when you go beyond causality, then you see that, let’ s say, a positionality
here can radiate forth in the world of manifestation in multiple ways
without one thing here necessarily being the cause  of this. In other words, a
positionality which surfaces in this way, it doesn’ t mean that the dissolution
of monolithic Communism was caused  by anything outside of itself, but it
occurred at the same time. There is undoubtedly more to the story. We’ll ask
it in a general way. First of all, I know there’ s more to the story. “There’ s
more to the story: resist” (T rue). Thank you. My own feeling was that it
came from higher dimensions as a result of the consequence of positive
accumulated karma of mankind. “That’ s correct: resist” (T rue). Well, we
won’ t go into the details of it. It would be as though the collective karma of
mankind as a whole had reached the point where it had crossed that
collective. Perhaps the last great finale of negativity was really World War II, in
which the negativity, satanic ener gy, was massive. That caused almost a
shock, but then, into the shock came that which was really more Luciferic
in that it was seeking power rather than destruction—in the form of
Communism and the USSR, which was really seeking power although it
took expression as cruelty, and Stalin really was responsible for more
deaths than Hitler. Nevertheless, it more or less ran its course. And of
course, it was Gorbachev—if you calibrate Gorbachev’ s heart chakra, it’ s
extremely high—so Gorbachev pulled the correct stops out, and the thing
collapsed of itself without a shot. Gorbachev did not fire a shot. So, the
West with all of its brave talk about “the war against Communism”—it was
not the war against Communism that defeated Communism. It was the
stops were pulled out by Gorbachev. Let’ s see what Gorbachev’ s heart is at. “We have permission: resist” (T rue). “Gorbachev’ s heart is over 540: resist”
(True); “560” (Not true); “550” (T rue). Wow. So, those people like Gandhi and Mandela and Gorbachev, people
who changed all political history, their power came from a heart chakra at
550 and over. That is encouraging, because then it means increasing one’ sown capacity of lovingness has the capacity to undo the negativity of the
world. In fact, it has the capacity to collapse whole empires. That which
collapsed the USSR was the radiance of the heart chakra of one man. However, that one man also represented something else that we write
about, and that is when we talk about attractor ener gy fields. We say that
each of these ener gy fields has an attractor pattern behind it. That brought
us to describing what we call “critical factor analysis,” one of the values of
kinesiology. Many interacting systems are so complex, they are not capable
of comprehension by the human intellect, nor by an assisted computer. A
computer is limited to the Newtonian paradigm. It cannot be programmed
for the nonlinear, by definition. Consequently, it can only mimic the
intellect; it cannot mimic human intelligence. In any case, some situations
are so enormously complex, they are beyond comprehension. This is a
problem run into by big governments historically. The complexity of
running a Roman Empire was staggering and, in the end, it just fell of
inertia. All the soldiers just married the local girls and settled down and quit
the army, and that was the end of the Roman Empire. No army could defeat
the Roman Empire. It was the most formidable army the world has ever
seen. It was unconquerable. And the Roman legions ruled all of Europe and
the Mediterranean for a thousand years; it was [an] army invincible that
ruled for a thousand years, and what brought it down—the kiss of a lovely
woman. The soldiers all around Hadrian’ s Wall and all over the place met
the local girls, fell in love with them and got married, and said, “The hell
with it,” and went to farming, and that was the end of the Roman legions. In any complex situation, there is what I call “the critical factor. ” In a
giant clockworks, if you know where to touch the giant clockworks, you
can stop the entire clockworks by knowing precisely; the clockworks is so
complex that even a master watchmaker can’ t figure it out. The same with
an engineer. You see a locomotive running down the track with a hundred
cars behind it—there’ s an enormous amount of force. But if you know
where to touch the control in the cab, the engineer ’s cab, if you know where
to touch it, you can stop the whole freight train. And so, if correctly
positioned, then, knowing which of the pick-up sticks to pull out, the whole
thing collapses; but you have to know which one. Gorbachev was there and
Mandela was there. Each one was in a certain position. They also had a
certain amount of power, because each one of them calibrates around 550. In all of them, the power emanates from the heart. So the power of Love,then, is transformational. As we saw with the birth of Christ, it jumped the
calibration level of mankind 40 points, just the physicality being here, and it
jumped another 40 points when His teachings began to cross the Roman
Empire, and it totally changed Europe—the future of Europe and Western
civilization—for all time. So, an Avatar is one whose teachings and birth and presence
recontextualized the significance of all of life, for all of mankind,
throughout thousands of years. That’ s who we call an “A vatar. ” It’s not the
same as like the Avatar Used Book Company that you see running around
town. Avatar —I always get a kick out of people using the word avatar  in
the advertising of some program or something, because they don’ t
understand what Avatar is. Avatar is of such enormous power that it changes
all of mankind for thousands of years henceforth. It is the ideal by which
everything else is measured. Every action of mankind, every court decision,
every headline in the newspaper is unconsciously, if not consciously,
measured according to the teachings of the Buddha or Christ or Muhammad
or so. Muhammad calibrated at 700. You see, Buddha was 1,000; Christ was
1,000; Krishna was 1,000. All the great enlightened, fabled gurus of ancient
times—Zoroaster at 1,000. Muhammad I’ve repeatedly calibrated at 700, so
there was not the enormous power of spiritual truth to overcome, let’ s say,
the tribal proclivities of that part of the world, perhaps, so the teaching
breaks through—it breaks through. But don’ t forget, it broke through in
Christianity also in the middle. Certainly, the end times being positioned. The truth of Christianity has broken through by some primitive negativity
and savagery, which expressed itself in that way. And now we see it sort of
delayed in the coming from that part of the world. So, the spiritual person now is confronted with how to contextualize and
comprehend and understand the current world events, but then again, it has
been that way since I have been on the planet. World War I had just expired,
and then came the Great Depression, and then World War II, and I don’ t
know how many wars since then. And so, we’re always confronted with the
spiritual—the seeming  spiritual dilemmas of the expression of the ego, in its
expression as the actions, collective actions, of society. In any case, all any of us can do is within our own heart to reach the
highest level of compassion and understanding and try to recontextualize it
compassionately, because in so doing, we undo it. So each of those who
were able to undo great negativity did so because in a way, their heart wassupported by the hearts of all of us. They just didn’ t reach 550 all by their
lonesome, out there on an ice floe, you know. So, the evolution of the
consciousness of mankind is dependent on all the contributions of all of us. So, each one of us counts, and each one of us counts quite decisively. Each
one of us certainly counts quite decisively. “That’ s a fact: resist” (T rue). You know, I’ve always been suspicious of holy-sounding religious
teachings, you know what I’m saying. Holy-sounding religious teachings,
you say, “Yeah, right. ” I want to see, is that a fact, or is that not a fact. The Harmony of the Universe
There’ s the question of where astrology, for instance, fits into this whole
picture. Well, if the universe is one karmic whole, one karmic oneness, then
all that’ s within the universe, including its physical expressions as the
planetary systems, et cetera, is part and parcel of that harmony, huh. Therefore, the planets are also in harmony with that universality. I would
see it that, from a high level—we’ve said that archangels calibrate 50,000
and up, and you realize that we’re talking about logarithmic progression
here—one archangel at 50,000 that even thinks of you is likely to knock
you out of your body for some 20 or 30 years. And you’re lucky to breathe
again. Well anyway, so from some very higher level of Divinity, then. let’s say, if everything is the interaction of ener gy fields, which can be
represented symbolically as an attractor field, that means that all things are
therefore in harmony. So, I don’ t see a constellation as causing something
within human experience on this planet. I see a third factor out here. Because of this third factor, this constellation is in this position and this
event is happening commonly within the human experience, but this
astrologic position is not causing the human experience. Both the human
experience and the astrologic positionalities are expressing. So, if it is the
time for great harvesting, let’ s say, that which is supportive of life in all of
its expressions is expressing itself astrologically this way and has greater
crops on this planet at this time, right. And then, at a later time in the cycle,
the harvesting goes down and the astrologic position at that time is
different. So, to explain the harmony of the universe, which is consistent with the
concept of the holographic universe and also the nonlinear dimensions of
reality, it isn’ t that “this” on this side of the universe is causing  “this,” but itis concordant; and those of you who are familiar with advanced theoretical
physics know that the spin of an electron on. and the spin of an electron
in another part of the universe—this one is not causing  the spin of this
electron, but if this one stops and reverses, so does this, but there’ s no
connection between the two of them. Which means that which you want to
call “cause” is really just a terminology, a verbalization and a concept, and
not a reality. But if you want to say there is a cause, the cause would then be
outside both the electrons and that which causes this electron to go this way
and this one, this way. So, this electron is not causing this. So, to me, an
astrologic position does not cause  pots and pans to break, but the timing of
pots and pans breaking is simultaneous with that but not caused by that, you
understand. Simultaneity does not mean causality. Just as peace appearing
on the earth and all people praying for peace—it doesn’ t mean necessarily
that the praying for the peace is causing  the peace. But the appropriate time
is an appropriate time for all things. And the appropriate timing of peace
appearing and the appropriate time of praying for peace are probably
simultaneous but not causal. Some Spiritual Sayings Are Not Accurate
There are a lot of sayings, you know, spiritual sayings that are not exactly
accurate. I mean, if they were all accurate, everybody would be enlightened. A lot of them are greatly inaccurate. To say, “All things are possible with
God,” is usually a hypothetical statement to counter somebody else’ s
argument in order to prove that you’re right. In usage, when looked at
exactly, it cannot be so, because that which God cannot be is “not God. ”
“All things are possible with God” is usually used to explain or give some
kind of reification of the potential truth of something preposterous and quite
unlikely. However, there is a correct usage to it within the infinite power of
God in another context, in another sense. No, it’ s still not true. Because
of the nature of creation itself that each thing becomes the essence of its
own potentiality as the fulfillment of its own karma, there can’ t really be the
fulfillment of something else’ s karma, or a bird would turn into a toad. No,
a toad can only become a toad. So, we could say that that which “is” cannot
become that which it is not. It can only be that which it is. That has to do
with the self-identity of reality. The most dif ficult thing to see about in the
enlightened condition—let’ s say, the radical sense of “I”—the thing thatmakes it the most dif ficult to understand is that everything is radically only
that which it is. It sounds like a nonsensical statement, but the ego cannot
deal with anything except creating—cannot make any statement without
creating a duality, thereby negating the reality of that which it is attempting
to describe. Even the word is is incorrect. The radical reality of that which
sits and speaks through this is-ness here is beyond is-ness; it is beyond
beingness. Even a transitive, intransitive verb is incorrect. There is neither a
subject nor a predicate. There is neither a “this” doing a “that,” nor a “here”
as compared to a “there. ” Those are all positionalities within mentalization. Those are all mentalizations. No such thing can be. The only thing that’ s
possible is the reality of the cat being absolutely, completely, 101 percent
cat—not caused by anything extraneous to itself. The only absolute
statement of truth that’ s possible is the word I. To say “am,” the suf fix “am”
to “I,” is already a negation of the reality of the truth of “I,” “is-ness,” and
“beingness,” because the radical reality of that which I am is beyond either
“is-ness” or “beingness. ” It is beyond existence or nonexistence. All such
terminologies are mentations. So the most dif ficult thing about seeing the
truth of the reality of who you are is the radical identity of the self as the
Self. That which you subjectively experience as Self is that and nothing
else. Then the ego comes in and tries to destroy that realization by adding
all kinds of adjectives, adverbs. “I am that I am” is already deviating from
truth. “Am-ness,” “beingness” itself, is beyond the radical reality of the
truth of that which you really are. Any verb at all is varying from truth. In
fact, any noun is already varying from truth, because each one is adding
something that is not essential to its essence, to that essence, and thereby
blurring the recognition of the radical reality of its essence. To add the word
“am” after “I” is already in error; it’ s already of f the point. Choice: Choose the Highest and Least Selfish
I think what we all tend to do is try to make what seems to be the highest
decision, that which is most beneficial and loving, et cetera. We all try to
make a decision which is, in our view of it, the least selfish. We try to
choose “win-win” over “win-lose. ” At the same time, we try to clarify our
perception of the conditions about which we feel we have to make a
decision—whether we’re seeing it in terms of “either/or–ness. ” We try to
clarify in our inner mind, so it’ s very complex what our motivations are. Asimple thing like, “Should I pick up a new kitty at the animal shelter. ” can
already be quite complex. On the other hand, it can be quite simple because
each and everything, if examined to the full elaboration of which the ego is
capable, becomes extremely complex. There’ s a much easier way to do it. “It’s a good thing to get a nice kitty at the pound: resist” (T rue). We know that having a pet increases longevity. It decreases heart attacks,
drops people’ s blood pressure. I see a lot of depressed people in the of fice,
and I always ask them, “Do you have a pet at home. ” “No. ” Hmm. Well,
we know that the presence of a pet increases longevity. We know that
they’re therapeutic. We know that they’re very useful in nursing homes. The
nursing homes I liked the best were ones that had dogs running around. If
the nursing home didn’ t have a dog running around, it had a lower
vibration. It did, really. And those which had Christian denominations
running them seemed to have a higher ener gy and vibration. And there were
always friendly dogs running around. So again, it isn’ t that this caused that,
but a higher level of spiritual awareness, whatever, resulted in greater
kindness on the part of the staf f, a higher healing rate. And the presence of
the dog—you can’ t say the dog caused the higher healing rate, but that
which chose to have a dog there saw the importance of love to healing. And
any health-field people who see the importance of love to healing are very
likely to be more capable of bringing about healing in their patients. So
every decision, then, can be seen, of course, from multiple viewpoints. And
that which is most loving is undoubtedly probably what dominates most of
the people on the field of spiritual inquiry. Of course, nowadays we can
calibrate a thing too, but that doesn’ t mean it has to rule you. You know, calibrating things is just verification; it’ s just verification. It’ s
extremely useful. It’ s extremely useful as a research tool. The strangeness
of this particular consciousness here was that it went through a whole great
variety of experiences within the levels of consciousness, and it happened
in a person with a scientific, medical, psychiatric, and psychoanalytic
background. So that the curiosity of the intellect then was—the physician
looked at it and said, “What in the world is that physiologically going on
with the body. ” The psychoanalyst wanted to look at it. So, the self-
examination that went on was from the viewpoint which is not exactly
traditional. And the description of the state then was expressed in a form
that expressed the background of the entity. So Power vs. For ce, then, was
coming from the awareness that the scientific world, the world of theNewtonian paradigm, is ruled by logic and reason and science. So, how to
present it, then—first as a Ph. D. dissertation to a university faculty where it
would meet all the strict requirements of a Ph.
