Ceasar and Suzanne

Heal Yourself

CEASAR AND SUZANNE
Today I found myself remembering very specific details of a relationship healing that I experienced many, many years ago.

I had a boyfriend, Ceasar, who I was crazy about and who was crazy about me too. We broke up however over a number of serious disagreements. I was handling the breakup okay until he met up with my best friend, Suzanne.

My emotions went out of control … I thought I’d die … I couldn’t make sense out of anything … Breathing was difficult … How could he …? How could she …? But we had broken up … That didn’t matter … ! I hated my life …!

FINALLY, I turned to God in desperation. I only remember that the entire situation just faded away and I was free. There were no lingering bad feelings toward either one of them.

A week or two later I happened to go to the same club where I had met them and who should come running up to me before I went in but Suzanne. She wanted me not to go in but go anywhere else with her. Finally she confessed that Ceasar had broken up with her and she wanted to rekindle our friendship.

Long story short, I went my way – inside – and who do you suppose was waiting for me inside but Ceasar? He wanted to get back together with me! Which I didn’t!

It was my first complete, miraculous healing of what had felt at the time like a double disaster with tidal waves of emotions gone haywire. I wound up feeling so happy and loved – way beyond what human attachment could accord.

Then it occurred to me that not everyone concerned had been blessed: Ceasar and Suzanne hated each other! No way was I going to hoard my healing (even if it did feel like sweet revenge). I remember spiritually “seeing” all that love and joy that I was feeling in a much fuller way – to include them as well and after some time they also became friends again.

MEMES – 41

A mirage is a thing in the desert, visible to all.
It’s a
SHARED ILLUSION
The world we think we see is another HYPNOTIC ILLUSION.

A W A K E NING
to world of illusion, which Buddha called “maya”, spread in India, but alas the illusory second world got accepted.

Buddha saw there is one consciousness, one ego, one self, one life, one mind
Of course his works were misinterpreted
#TruthWillOut

Using some words – like they have inherent power -is religious :p
Not using some words -for whatever reason – is also religious :p

THERE … ARE … NOT … TWO … WORLDS !!!

THE … DIVINE … KINGDOM … IS … ALL … THAT … EXISTS !!

THE ILLUSORY WORLD
is an illusion about
THE DIVINE KINGDOM
The universal mind is illusory world with a form bearing Your Name!!!

☆
WE CAN LIVE IN THE REAL AS WE LEARN TO MASTER OURSELVES, THE ILLUSION
Overcoming world of illusion removes us from law of matter

Whereas u had sickness, poverty, sorrow –
Now you have health, wealth, joy.
WHAT YOU REALLY HAVE IS ONE ILLUSION REPLACING ANOTHER

GOING INTO THE STILLNESS
All is silent. Glorious, glorious emptiness.
NOT A THOUGHT.
No body, no mind, no feelings. EMPTINESS

Sometimes we INSIST ON STRUGGLING WITH DARKNESS !!
And yet 🙂
“Whenever light enters darkness the darkness is abolished.” acim

ALWAYS SEEKING ??
That’s coz you’re unaware that
YOU ARE THAT WHICH YOU SEEK.
Oh, that we would ponder this one very deeply!

If ur seeking enlightenment coz of urgent need, bad news is a huge distraction.
The good news is with right persistence you’ll win

Yes! Yes! Yes! One can live their whole life without reading any Joel, Herb or acim.
Yes, they can!
I don’t know how though!
:p

Sometimes we’re not too smart!
The very thing we are seeking we’re pushing away :p
Can you blame us?
We have to crucify that mind!

THIS WORLD CAN NEVER GET OUTSIDE THE UNIVERSAL MIND COZ THAT’S WHERE IT IS
Nothing can ever get outside universal mind

NEITHER A BOMB NOR AN EARTHQUAKE
can manifest outside the universal human mind.
That universal human mind individualizes ours

:'( :'( :'(
UNIVERSAL MIND IS EVERYWHERE & BECOMES YOUR MIND.
:'( :'( :'(
That was fall from Eden. We must be transformed.

Universal thought
BECOMES MATERIAL THINGS.
We have an echo mind confirming world thought
UNTIL WE CHOOSE DIFFERENTLY

MATTER IS THE UNIVERSAL FALSE MIND MADE VISIBLE AND IS UNDER THE LAW OF A FALSE MIND.
Discord removed reappears.

ANY TRUTH WHATSOEVER POINTS TO GOD AND PROVES THAT THAT’S ALL THERE IS : SUCH IS THE MIRACLE OF THE SYNONYM.

I am affiliated with NO ONE, a follower of NO ONE & no group. Every day is brand new to me as I check my findings out with NO ONE.

The universal mind externalizes itself in all the myriad forms of
GOOD & EVIL,
ultimating in
OUR THOUGHTS & that’s not okay.

Got a gnawing painful memory u can’t seem to evict?
Good! Let’s do it now:
U ARE ENTIRELY SPIRITUAL, HAVING ONLY ATTRIBUTES OF GOD

The body of Jesus was in a different dimension.
That’s true of Christ-form of u too.
It cannot be disturbed by forms of this world

<[●]>
A slight twinge of annoyance is nothing but a veil drawn over intense fury.

<[●]>

Jesus’ having walked through a closed door proved non-existence of the door.
Don’t provide channel for world mind & glean miracles

When you start & stay with Allness of God, you’ll never have to contend with
SEPARATENESS.
Allness of God
=> Nothingness of matter

Why in the world would you want to attain
EMPTINESS
when you go into the Silence for
MEDITATION ? Ans: It’s OUT of this world.

Fb is a lot like a public highway to world.
When a person says or implies “No,
THAT’S NOT WHAT I DO!”
they have a right to be free

When you are no longer friends with someone, respect the secrets that they shared with you, it’s called INTEGRITY!

Dihima Mclean

We are so far from eliminating the problems of the world because we are of the same mind that created them.
We must choose again.

JUST SO WE’RE CLEAR
I don’t accept anything but universe of
S P I R I T
in which matter is as unthreatening as it is UNKNOWN !!

ISN’T IT THE STRANGEST IRONY
people can be so close in understanding/awareness of Spirit & still squabble over vocabulary!
😛

🙂 😛 😀 😉 B)
ALL THERE CAN BE ANYWHERE IN THE UNIVERSE IS SPIRIT OF GOD.
IT’S HALLELUJAH TIME !!!
🙂 😛 😀 😉 B)

ONCE YOU STEP OUTSIDE THE UNIVERSAL MIND YOU’LL BE FREE OF ALL OF ITS HYPNOTIC ILLUSIONS.

Silence the world mind.

I Am the Stillness. I Am the Vastness. I Am the Emptiness. I Am the Infinity. I Am the Invisibility. I Am.

ONCE YOU GET IT RIGHT & U KNOW THAT U KNOW THAT U KNOW
INFINITE LOVE
DO 2-3 SECOND REMINDERS THROUGHOUT THE DAY

Trying to get God-power to change something?
Find a way instead to let spiritual power use itself in you
NO EFFORT IS INDICATED

EVER TRIED IN VAIN TO ENTER STILLNESS ?
Runaway thoughts kept u at bay?
GOOD NEWS:
Stop all efforts, quiet down YOU’RE THERE

You used to pursue enlightenment because of a pressing human need, right?
Then u found ur more interested in awakening?
CONGRATS

All you’ve ever done or not done, all you’ve ever been through, is being used on ur behalf right now since u have
CHOSEN TO AWAKEN

P U R I T Y
OF THE MIND
is about staying in same channel or dimension as Spirit.
Not behavior modification, but an exacting focus.

What if? We called everything! RJS

De-hypnotize

WHAT IF ?
everything you’ve ever been through had been called into being by … you!!!
It’s not that you wanted that junk per se but you wanted to work something out and presto there it was!
We think we’ve got the last word in logic and communication but we ain’t got squat (being polite)! Truth be told we can’t even fathom ourselves in forms other than what we see around us … unless we make the supreme effort to awaken.
When we do awaken, not even the sky itself is the limit!

Inner reality doesn’t need words – FJ

Enlightenment

OMG, WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A PERSON WHO ELOQUENTLY AND SUCCINCTLY TELLS THE WHOLE WORLD THOSE PRIVATE THOUGHTS YOU NEVER TOLD ANYONE??

“After an inner awakening several years ago, I can’t even read spiritual books any more. It feels something like trying to ice skate on cement. What does the inner reality have to do with words?”

You’re beyond amazing – inspired by PP

Exercises privpp

YOU’RE BEYOND AMAZING !!
You are like a great big balloon.
You’re expanding and expanding.
By now you’re filling up the whole room.
Expanding more and more and more,
You now contain the whole building.
The city, the country … now you’re
as big as the world and beyond –
Way, way beyond, when a little prick
pierces your container, leaving only you.

Choosing Spirit over world

God-centered Life

CHOOSING SPIRIT WHEN MATTER SEEMS MORE ATTRACTIVE
I’m guessing that you are trying to juggle two realms – like we all do – but it doesn’t really work. It takes a lot of courage to choose only spiritual reality when so much is going well in the human realm.
It’s a hypnotic, world suggestion that tries to make us believe we’ll miss out on something if we choose Spirit over flesh all the way. That just simply isn’t true. The “problem” is that if we’re not used to staying with Spirit, it may temporarily seem like something is being sacrificed. Holding to Spirit, God, will straighten everything out in miraculous ways.

HF doesn’t believe reincarnation

Herb Fitch

One thing that fascinates me about Herb is that he actually doesn’t believe in reincarnation or even in karma. Yes I know he talks about them in full detail but once a person asserts categorically that as Max Planck, initiator of Quantum Theory, declared “matter as such does not exist”, they have established their disclaimer re the entire belief of incarnation per se.

In the STILLNESS

Silence

WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL NEWS
IN THE STILLNESS: NO THOUGHT
It’s the most glorious ‘place’ to be.
Millions of thoughts and feelings
dissipate in the vast beautiful
emptiness in which is only God.
But what about me? Am I there?
Yes, of course, there’s only God.

Finding someone who’s free – Mooji

Mooji
MOOJI – SAMA

How beautiful and rare to find one
who is free of intentions, desires and needs.
One who has come to that state
which is not driven by the urge to control existence
or become anything.
One’s mind comes to a beautiful place of openness,
silence and peace.
In fact, one does not create such a state;
one simply stops identifying with the projections
of the conditioned mind and so comes to recognise
and be one’s true nature.
~ Mooji

Don’t look back

Letter for YOU

….. DON’T ….. LOOK ….. BACK .. !!!
No matter how hard it is to humanly imagine,
the fact is that ‘matter’ never happened.
Your whole dream … in spiritual reality … never happened!
If you get the tiniest glimpse of this, your entire life could change.

You’ll begin to see spiritual connections and precious illuminations.
Things will start coming together for you in miraculous ways.
The world will seem sweeter … and then you’ll see it wasn’t the world at all.

You’ll start blessing people’s lives in ways that are too numerous
and too glorious to recount.
You’ll feel God’s love everywhere –
right where injustice once had the audacity to seem to be!
