Toward a World that Works for Everyone
Nov 27, 2022 https://www.assistthespirit.com/a-doorway-within-wide-open/ I stood at the end of a pier, drinking it in… The snow-capped Olympics glistened over Puget Sound from end to end on this particularly warm evening in April. Rigging on hundreds of boats tinkled casually amid an occasional seagull’s cry, and in the distance … as is common if you […]
Craziness reigns in the world but I remain focused on the inner world. Since bliss will be our lot at some future time, hopefully not too far away, I’d like to look at what our sources have said about the nature and experience of bliss. And this time, rather than looking at higher-dimensional celestials and […]
(Concluded from Part 3, yesterday.) (3) Devote yourself to the Real. We’ve developed our powers of discrimination and used them now to discern what is untrue and unreal. And we’ve detached ourselves from any attachment to these things. Mentally, emotionally and spiritually we now devote ourselves to – in the case of lightworkers – the […]
(Continued from Part 2, yesterday.) (2) Detach from the unreal. After identifying one thing after another that’s not true or real, we gradually lose our taste altogether for many things that used to excite us. Foods we’ve always loved, drinks, locations, activities – now we find all of our tastes changing and much of the […]
(Continued from Part 1, yesterday.) (1) Discriminate between the Real and the unreal. As was revealed to me in a vision on Feb. 13, 1987, the purpose of life is for us to realize who we are. (1) Before I turn to discrimination proper, I’d like to look at life’s purpose. If we only want […]
I’ve been putting off writing this article for some time but I now feel the time has arrived. There’s such chaos outside that I need to clarify for myself my basic values, to remind myself what course I want to steer. To do that, I’d like to describe a spiritual path that derives from Hinduism. […]
I no sooner wrote this sentence: Want, want, not want attracts an “I” to fulfill itself, after which “I want” sets “the entire universe in motion” to get what it wants. (1) than I saw that desirelessness and stillpoint were not the same. “I want” is attachment. The absence of want is desirelessness, detachment from […]
For me, to “be in the moment” and to “be aware” cover 95% of the same territory. Michael wants me to be in the moment. We’ve discussed it on a number of occasions: Archangel Michael: Think of it! You are part of the strategy that we are employing to change the face of humanity! Steve: […]
Sorry, nothing more to report on Stillpoint. Except a peaceful day spent in self-awareness. Which I really needed. The event of Stillpoint now exists only in a rather unreliable memory – and whatever made it to paper. (1) Thank heavens I obeyed the Arcturians’ advice from long ago to write down one’s experiences immediately. Another […]
Back in my everyday consciousness, I’m attached again to this and that. Everything is about what I want. I want peace. I want quiet. I want an absence of interruptions and distractions. In my case, notice that what I want is a divine state – stillness, quiet, meditative solitude. It’s not a trip to Hawaii […]
Out of our appreciation for your support, I’ve bundled together all my articles written while fully or partially in the desireless state. The pdf is attached, below. Download here. Right click and download will be automatic: https://goldenageofgaia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Desirelessness-and-the-Still-Mind-3.pdf Here’s the intro. Introduction On June 6, 2021 I began an experience of desirelessness that lasted roughly for […]
The re-entry from desirelessness to everyday consciousness continues. This re-entry is unusually hard. Re-entry is like a stairstep operation. One seems to go down by bumps. Usually from one day to the next. In this latest stairstep, I was smitten with numerous desires. I was grumpy, positional, depressed. I was easily overwhelmed and really only […]
What’s it like to act without desire? How can I carry on? First, let me redefine “desire.” Here’s Websters to start with: to long or hope for : exhibit or feel desire for I’d like to expand on that. I redefine desire as a complex of actions, including but not limited to: An urge being […]
My recent experience of desirelessness has shown me one or two things about the ego and desire. Imagine that I’m a department store. One department is the Desire Department and another is the Ego Department. The folks in Desire have an array of tasks to attend to. They sort out what our desires are. They […]
Each time I see the Sun, I remember the Self. And that brings bliss. My cares are forgotten. At these moments I’m not desireless. If I was, I wouldn’t have any cares. I meditate and let go of all desires. As I do, I find a hidden agenda. I’m trying to manage my impression with […]
