Who's Disclosure is Disclosure?

Sun Apr 14, 2019 2:16 am by Cyrellys

The narrative war is in full swing. When there's a 100 different competing narratives, how is it possible to discern a disclosure?

Is it akin to which truth is Truth?

    Isn't that why we are here... so we can choose to refuse?
    Have faith in us god avatars.
    Truth presented in peace is still truth, no?

    Many have refused the truth.

    I refused the truth. Many have had excuses.

    With the advent of chicken little....... excuses evaporate.

    cw, I’m just play acting my part.

    God and the Devil meet you through your True Will.

    It is very real I assure you, as is Magick.

    The Beast has the best possible amount of compassion.

    When you reach your Self, you can’t help but want to help Wink

    You can lose yourself in your reflection too.

    That’s why we throw each other off balconies when we forget it’s always happening...

    NOW
    NOW
    NOW

    The rest takes care of itself.

    Your breathing happens automatically.

    When you want to know your self, get close to the breathe.

    Life is ultimately a lot of fun in spite of the outward circumstances.

    I know, tell that to the people who burned up in Paradise and Malibu.

    They were terrified of Death mostly I’m sure.

    If we can do anything to help others face that fear, it is enough.

    That fear is what robs us of our power, maybe it’s a built in governor, but it must be transcended by anyone who is serious about the Great Work.

    I do think the teachings about the Great Work from antiquity are a kind of homing signal for the birds who can feel True North, which is True Will.

    The genius of them is that they simply say, see for yourself.

    See for yourselves.

    Smelly,

    Interesting you wrote this after my previous post (a haiku about mirror in the dark):

    "You can lose yourself in your reflection too."

    What is it to lose oneself?

    Or, simply........  we have met the enemy.......

    But there is another factor in play...... one that will be very difficult to swallow.......

    It is the Grand Deception.

    smelly has no clue about this. He will not be able to hold your hand as you attempt to see through this glass...... darkly.

    All can only face their self deception themselves.

    To lose yourself, is to lose coherence.

    We all have to come apart first though.

    Dan should watch himself proclaiming what people know and don’t.

    He hasn’t a clue about what you or I know.

    It’s a tell of a confused mind to do so and it smells of great fear.

    This new software upload sure is a lot of fun.

    After being thrown off a balcony you get an upgraded nose.

    With this new nose you can smell bullshit from a mile away.

    It is so much fun to see the world through clear eyes.

    Bwahaha

    Dan is clearly a confused pretender.

    It is so amusing to watch pretenders put on an act.

    Right Aaron, his walls are falling.

    Imma just keep throwin this fool Dan around then I guess until he breaks.

    The old man is no match for the young goat.

    Move aside Dan, the young bucks have the ball now.

    I will become thoroughly conversant with the noble truth of self-realization, will become a perfect master of my own mind, will conduct myslef without effort, will be like a gem reflecting a variety of colours, will be able to assume the body of transformation, will be able to enter into the subtle minds of all beings, and, because of my firm belief in the truth of Mind-only, will, by gradually ascending the stages, become established in Dudehood.



    I'm just sitting her watching moth boy flap his wings trying to get somewhere.

    Some flap around like moths trying to get to the light, others are the light.

    Moth boy may not have this level of security clearance yet.

    Again, where is the empathy?
    Why is it amusing to watch Dan's confusion?
    Amusing is a judgement just as pity would be. Why choose either?

    Let go of ego
    Light will reflect your heart's truth
    Which is your ego

    I am certainly amused.

    Throwing him around is compassion.

    Dan knows what we mean.

    He only pretends.

    We are all friends here.

    I only treat others the way I would treat myself in such a situation.

    I call it strong love.

    This is empathy.

    Nature is not always gentle.

    When a seed passes through the gut of an animal it undergoes a process  called scarification which is the process of weakening the seed coat so  that the embryo can emerge.

    A seed can be scarified manually by filing the seed with a nail file or using a hot water treatment to weaken the seed coat.

    An example of a plant whose seeds need to be scarified in order to germinate is the red bud tree.

    Dan is just being passed through the gut of Goats.

    I wouldn't eat just any seed though.

    Only ones that are ready to be eaten.

    I'm sure many a wife beater and child abuser has said the same thing.

    What do you tell a woman with 2 black eyes?
    Nothing... you've already told her twice.

    I'm not suggesting that's you, but just saying that we justify our acts and words in the name of good intention.

    Look deep.... does being "right" feel good or bad? <--that is a trick question

    Do or do not, there is no try.

    This is called do not-doing.

    Go eat a fresh weed and then a fresh tomato.

    We are talking about 2 different things. Are you suggesting there is no free will?

    There must be free will and there must be no free will both.

    One cannot exist without the other.

    Maybe when you find complete freedom from the past and future and all other attachments then you finally are free to express your free will more effortlessly.

    Thought, idea, concepts, feeling, beliefs, attitudes....these things make good slaves but bad masters.

    Free will itself is but an abstraction of the imagination....at least I imagine it is.

    Are you attached to your wife and children and if so, do those attachments constrain the effortlessness of your free will expression?

    He was young and stupid, but smart and sure
    There was nothing left to imagine when he saw her
    As his heart let go of his childhood, it grabbed on to his future and made it his present
    They laughed and loved, with no worry about the past or future
    The future eventually seized them
    It awoke them to their mortal reality
    As the planet spun and the leaves died, so their hearts spun and their youth died
    When will the heart stabilize and which direction will it point
    The dark, still ocean has no horizon, no direction
    At the end of each horizon is death and dust, so direction doesn’t matter
    It’s how the wind will blow, not where and not why
    It blows as a hurricane at 200 miles per hour wreaking havoc on your ship
    It blows as one would imagine god to breathe, with love and courage and peace
    Your ship is one of billions already sunk, sitting on the bottom
    Some made it to the beach, some never saw the beach, and some never wanted the beach
    The beach is an illusion
    The illusion is reality
    The journey can be made as one or as two
    The heart spins faster, its position more and more uncertain
    But the leaves always come back to life
    He is old and stupid, but smart and sure
