145 DSR – illusion as Gasoline

Ethereal

Illusion is what we put in the gas tank of life. The spark that ignites it is our pursuit of truth. We are then propelled forward on our journey. Soul is an amazing way of being isn’t it? – Greg Whitaker (inspired by Robert Wesley Branch)

Let’s break it down:

1) Illusion is what we put in the gas tank of life. Without this fuel, you don’t move to the next level in your journey. As we see each illusion for what it is, we can then end our suffering over that situation and free up our attention/intention to move to the next illusion.

2) The spark that ignites it (illusion) is our pursuit of truth. We must burn up the illusion. As we do this, we move closer to the center of who we really are.

3) We are then propelled forward on our journey. No gasoline, no movement.

4) Soul is an amazing way of being isn’t it?

139 DSR – Whose Experience Are You Having?

experience

Thanks to John from New York for the recent voicemail about the ridiculous shopping going on during Black Friday.

Are you living through other people? Do you read autobiographies of famous dead folks and tell yourself how awesome they were?
When are you going to start writing your own chapters? Will you leave your mark in the sands of time?

The only experience I’m interested in having is my own. It’s the only one you should be excited about too. Read all the books you want about what it’s like to live, do, be, have, become. Until you’ve been there, done that, been that, you’re empty of it.

Quote:
“Even when one truly goes with the flow one had better touch shore or bottom once in a while to be sure one isn’t just floating in the stagnant waters of secure beliefs.” – John C. Lilly

134 DSR – Wanting More Money

Money-In-Fire

Wanting more money and thinking it will make you happy or solve your problems is what I refer to as The Grand Illusion.

Money = happiness is a lie.

Your consciousness about money is a thermostat. No matter what’s happening around you (large increase in money) you will automatically go to your pre-set “temperature.” And you’ll spend all of the increase is that’s what it takes to reset to your comfort zone.

Money doesn’t create consciousness.
Consciousness creates money.

The good news is you can increase your money consciousness. How? Checking out the resource below is a good place to start. And by the way, this book is in my personal library.

tithe

Facebook post. Picture of a church billboard:
Non-Tither’s Board – Would a man rob God?

Would a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me.
But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee?
In tithes and offering. – Malachi 3:8

Rob –
1. to take something from (someone) by unlawful force or threat of violence; steal from.
2. to deprive (someone) of some right or something legally due.
3. to plunder or rifle (a house, shop, etc.).
4. to deprive of something unjustly or injuriously.

Tithe = Tenth or Ten
Ten = Net

Give and Take – Give with expectation of something in return.
-vs- Gifting (giving without expectation). Gifting is Receiving simultaneously.

Fear contracts / Releasing fear expands

Jesus was a Capricorn (12/25)
Ruling Planets = Saturn
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn. In ancient Roman mythology, Saturn was the father of many of the gods.

Seed
Earth = Heart
Plant = Planet

Cell Phone – short for cellular, right?
What is a cell? A cage, prison, enclosure.

132 DSR – The State of You

October 3, 2013 — 3 Comments

consciousness

The State of Tennessee
The State of California

How about The State of Being?
The State of Consciousness?
The State of You?

What state are you in?
What state of mind are you in?

“Don’t bother setting up free republics or moving to a country which offers more liberties. Simply declare yourself to be an independent state. Do not involve and coerce others. This is the only way we will effect a proper revolution. Once each of us recognizes our own freedom and our own responsibility, then the chains that bind us will fall away. To be free from bad manners, we have to be mannerly ourselves, and then we have to ignore the bad manners in others.”
Tom Hodgkinson – How to Be Free

129 DSR – What You Should vs What You Could

September 12, 2013 — Leave a comment

if you could
Voicemail from Anderson in Boston, MA

What should you be doing?
What could you be doing?
What’s the difference?

The world (should), convention, tradition, routine, the past.
The spirit (could), potential, possibility, power, the now.

The great dichotomy
dichotomy – a division or contrast between two things that are or are represented as being opposed or entirely different.

The great lobotomy
Cut out of your life what you think you should be doing and start doing what you could be doing.
What you want to do.
What you love to do.

Debt can be an excuse for not living your life.
I can’t, I’ve got bills.
When I get the kids thru college, then…..
When we pay the house off, then…..
When I get that raise/promotion, then….
Being debt free, removes the excuses. If you want it to.

Fear makes you the observer and not the participant. TV allows you to watch people do things extremely well instead of doing them badly yourself. Thank you Tom Hodgkinson
