As I Explore the Path of Loving Kindness…

As I Explore the Path of Loving Kindness…

Again the mysteries of the assassination attempt unfold. The Secret Service ignoring warnings of the shooter’s presence, them ordering the white-hat sniper not to shoot the deep-state shooter, trajectories, timing, etc. Questions arise on every side.

While all this is going on, here I am exploring the path of loving kindness.

I’ve followed the path of orneriness most of my life. On this new path, I’m challenged again and again and again. And it’s meeting those challenges that I’d like to talk about.

I’m challenged on two fronts: The first is by what I’ve called vasanas, after Ramana Maharshi, (1) which Linda Dillon calls “core issues,” equivalent in meaning.

These comprise the mental/emotional complex of memories and energies that gets triggered whenever we feel we’re getting into the same threatening situation again.

They’re what are triggered when we blow our tops, go nuclear, go insane with anger, etc.

One of the important effects of raising awareness of our vasanas is to get that what we’re angry about and who we’re angry at has little to do with the person in front of us and more to do with our parents or siblings, teachers or other influential figures, when we were young.

We can process or invoke the universal laws for divine aid in removing our vasanas. (2) It used to take years; I now believe it can be done much quicker.

The second challenge on the path of loving-kindness is the automatic behavior patterns that I fall into as a result of the conclusions and decisions I reached, which then became the foundation of the vasana.

If we didn’t reach a conclusion (no one loves me, I don’t rate, you can’t trust anyone), I wouldn’t reach a decision (I won’t love anyone, I don’t need people, I won’t trust anyone). There’d be no problem. Go on to the next article.

If I didn’t reach a decision, there in all likelihood would not be a lingering vasana.

I won’t love anyone becomes coldness and rigidity. I don’t need anyone becomes automatic depression. I don’t trust anyone becomes automatic suspiciousness. And we go from mood to mood depending on what has gotten triggered … now.

Just to remind us where all this is going: It’s going round and round and round, as the graphic illustrates:

The simple answer to the rampage we go on and to the vasana itself is to simply stop. Listen to the vasana but don’t act on it.

Don’t participate in your upset; observe it. Let go of any thought that prompts you to leave the observer position and become the participant.

Anything that feels resentful, hateful, angry can be assumed to come from the vasana. Any automatic pattern can be assumed to come from this or another vasana. Just let it go as you would a piece of luggage.

Anything that feels loving, kind, compassionate can be assumed to have come from your heart. Enjoy it. Nurture it. Fan its embers.

As Stephen Levine says, at first we cultivate it; later it cultivates us.

That’s my agenda for the next while: Just observe the barriers to loving-kindness as they arise and nurture the incipient divine states/feelings. (3) The white hats have things in hand, even an assassination attempt, apparently. My worry is strictly optional.

However, I can contribute, at this time, by raising my own vibration, with the aim of taking the whole world out of the reach of darkness and evil.

At the same time, I honor the courage and sacrifice of those who go into harm’s way to rescue our oppressed and exploited. Nothing I do should be interpreted as wanting to take the attention and resources away from them.

I follow Sri Ramana’s practise in using the term “vasana” because I’d like to link up western trauma teachings with eastern vasana teachings.

(3) A divine state may be experienced as a wisp of feeling that skoots across the desktop of our mind. But the fundamental experiential difference between a feeling and a divine state is that the former is experienced as happening within our field of awareness whereas the latter is experienced as something we’re immersed in.  Our hearts hurt, but we’re immersed in love, bliss, ecstasy, joy, etc.

A World of Undreamed of Dimensions

A World of Undreamed of Dimensions

By Steve Beckow

Posted on March 19, 2024

I dunno. The idea just came to me.

I find myself chuckling when I read stories about who was the first to “discover” this invention or that.

Or when I see the bow and arrow arise on several continents that are not in touch with each other. In the social sciences, this is referred to as the problem of “geographical diffusion.” Is there an explanation?

Only those who accept the existence of the Divine Mother and all that flows from that acceptance will enjoy my explanation.

The Divine Mother tells us she releases an inspiration to all and many people may take it up:

Divine Mother: There are, guaranteed, many, a multitude, of beings upon the planet who, give or take a little, have been given the same inspiration. (1)

This might account for parallel research such as Wallace and Darwin. (2) It would account for the bow and arrow arising on several continents simultaneously. And so on.

The Mother is quite forthright about showering us with this same inspiration at this time of Ascension:

Divine Mother: If [one idea] does not give you that feeling [of unbridled joy], then set it aside. Go on to the next idea. Because the inspiration that you are being flooded with — and I mean each and every one of you – you are not in a lull, you are overwhelmed with ideas. So go to the next one, and say, all right, is this the one that makes my heart sing? And it may be a multitude of steps.

Do what feels like unbridled joy. That is how you create Nova Earth. (3)

Michael discusses the difficulty of getting us to respond:

Archangel Michael: Are we [archangels] in partnership with every being on the planet? Yes. But it is difficult when you are in a partnership and the other person does not realize it. So we are working with those who realize we are in partnership. And so that is why we are having these conversations. (4)

If you want a more detailed discussion of what may be happening to us, here’s Michael discussing how I should not try to shut this flood of inspiration down:

Archangel Michael: You have a million ideas and then some running concurrently through your head.

Do not turn down anything! So sometimes you have thought… Well, maybe if I slowed it down a bit, maybe if I paid closer attention to the details of what the input… Think of it as a constant stream. Think of a computer, a constant stream of input coming into your mechanism called the brain.

Do not turn it down because what you are doing in the upgrades is literally learning how to access what is important to you, what is meaningful to you and, yes, to the collective but we are talking about you at this moment.

And so you don’t want to start, consciously or unconsciously, editing the input into your brain.

Now, your [2018] heart repair and oxygen flow is helping and has helped this biological issue enormously. …

Now the biggest impediment, and I know you, sweet one, the biggest impediment to this being fully effective is concern so let us do our job. You give me the worry and let us proceed with the completion of the upgrade. (5)

It’s worth noting that you’re listening to a celestial being describe how he and others work with one of their servants, a lightworker. Throughout this article you’re hearing them confirm for us that they send us ideas.

Notice the notion of “upgrades.” Is this the process by which we pass from one subdimension to another?

Keep in mind that the purpose of life is our reunion with the Mother/Father One. So all this that the celestials are doing is designed to move us along in our progressive journey towards that ultimate culmination.

***

I saw an eery suggestion of “geographical diffusion” today when I opened my email and found one announcing “The World’s First Bioenergetics Conference!” (6)

Did I not mention recently that we need to take up again the really-useful practices of the growth movement, including bioenergetics? (7) Did I have anything to do with this simultaneous arising? Of course not. But probably the Divine Mother did.

Was the entire push to re-found the Human Growth Movement itself a suggestion from the Mother? Or Michael?  How could it not have been?

On another occasion, Michael shared that the celestials and galactics are working with us to get us to accept new ideas:

Archangel Michael: We have prevented or shifted human interest and beliefs, not overriding free choice but exposing billions, all at once, to accept a new idea.

And you are seeing that.  You are seeing it in the acceptance [by] humanity of your star brothers and sisters, of the angelic realm, of star technology that is in the homes of every person pretty much.  (8)

And so, you think that we are not doing things, you think that your star brothers and sisters are not doing things, but in fact we are. (9)

Here most of humanity sits, content to reside in a shoebox called “empirical materialism” where only what we can see, hear, and touch is real.

Meanwhile galactic ascended masters and celestials servants of the One are busily working with us to help us expand and ascend. Unseen and unknown to us.

I look forward to the day when we as a society cast aside that confining paradigm and awaken to a world of undreamed of dimensions.

Seeing the solution to the puzzle of geographical diffusion is just one example of the mysteries that will be cleared up when we take off the the blinders we choose to wear, made from outdated paradigms.

(B) From “Awareness Transforms – 2/2,” January 28, 2024, at https://goldenageofgaia.com/2024/01/28/awareness-transforms-2-2/:

We find, as we become aware of one script after another, of one core issue and automatic response after another, our facade begins to crumble.

For the most part this occurs as a result of the release of muscular tension in the body. While that can happen as a result of bodywork, rebirthing, bioenergetics, or other disciplines, I want to focus attention on telling the truth.

My Car Runs on Love

My Car Runs on Love

By Steve Beckow

Posted on August 29, 2023

My car runs on love

I used to metaphorically act like a car. I’d fill my tank every morning and motor about socializing, coming home elated or deflated – but drained.

Then I’d go through a process of pumping myself up in the morning again and off I’d go.

Until I discovered that what had me feel deflated and drained was not my expenditure of energy. The problem was my filter needed changing. Well, filter(s), really.

Metaphorically speaking.

Or at least that’s what I thought starting out.

And so I labored mightily for decades looking for better filters and postponing any interior refit until I had a good replacement in hand. Cold Mountain. Est Training. Enlightenment Intensives.

And then I discovered a shortcut. Just drop the filter: It wasn’t needed. (1)

Oh my gawd. That was so easy.

***

In 2018, I had an experience of my own innocence and purity and so I feel qualified to tell you: You’re already pure and innocent. (2)

You don’t need to work to get there, any more than taking off our overcoat is work.

We just need to drop the tremendous mental and emotional load we’re pulling, uphill. (3) It was never needed and it isn’t needed now.

Far from it. It’s keeping us from our native experience of innocence and purity.

***

Well, when I got that, it was very liberating. It meant that I didn’t have to postpone dropping my identified filter until I had a replacement. No replacement wanted or needed. Just drop the filter.

Now things began to pick up speed.

All of a sudden I found myself hearing from the ego a lot less: Unforeseen consequence. I found out how to cast off from the ego: Just drop it. Just stop. Just be quiet. Voluntarily. No force involved. No more than dropping a piece of luggage.

That was simple. After a lifetime of struggle, thinking I had to have a good idea to replace a bad one, I saw now that no idea was preferable.

***

Well, then a heart opening blew the lid off all of it. (4) Until then, all of it is happening mostly at the intellectual level, as this event demonstrates. I never knew what love was till now.

A walk through higher dimensionality and a return to planet Earth, so to speak, and here we are. (5)

Past the heart opening, we’re in occasional realizational territory, receding back into the experiential. But intellectual feels much less inviting now than it ever did.

Right/wrong? No use for it. Gets in the way. Just drop it. Don’t replace it with anything.

No juice in thoughts any more. And … no love. I mean, real love.  The kind of love we’re heading towards.

Just stay aboard the train. It’ll be brought to you.

Meanwhile I’m over here, dropping filters and enjoying life more each day. Cheaper than filling my tank every morning, too. My car runs on love. (6)

Footnotes

(1) I had a physical experience of this too. In 1969, I drove my new TR-4 across Canada on my way to Carleton University to do my master’s. But my car kept overheating. No one knew what the problem was until I came to this little rural gas station. Oh, he knew what the problem was, he said, and he removed this little tube from my carburetor and threw it away. It was doing this-a and that-a and wasn’t needed.

My car ran perfectly for the rest of its life after that.

(2) The sight of the Self at Xenia. See An Ascension Ethnography at https://goldenageofgaia.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/An-Ascension-Ethnography-12.pdf. Search on “Xenia.” (I intend my books to be searchable databases.)

(4) Loc. cit. Search on “heart opening.”

(3) I’ll bet that’s why Jesus said his yoke was easy.

(4) When will I take the shortcut here as well and simply drop all filters?

(5) The heart opening culminated in finding myself in an Ocean of Love.  Upon questioning, I was told it was a Seventh-Dimensional experience. In Ascension Ethnography, search on “Ocean of Love.”  (Apparently I’ve had two experiences, according to the write-ups.)

(6) When my tank needs filling, I draw love up from my heart, which fills me up.

What are Some Obsolete Belief Systems?

What are Some Obsolete Belief Systems?

by Steve Beckow

Posted on July 23, 2023

 

Ain’t going back there.

The Arcturian Group: “Many long accepted beliefs are changing or even disappearing through the presence of the increasingly intense high frequency energy now pouring to earth. These energies are exposing the underlying error of much that has long been accepted as truth and reality.

“Those who have lived lives dependent upon one particular belief system panic when it begins to crumble as they have nothing with which to replace it. You are seeing the result of this in the actions of so many now attempting to re-create and force obsolete traditions and their belief systems on everyone else, even if by force.” (1)

What are some of these obsolete belief systems?

(1) That wealth brings happiness

Wealth allows us to buy things. And, when we buy some things, like a Mazzerati or a château in the south of France, we think the purchase has brought us joy, happiness, contentment, etc.

Andrew Cohen has pointed out that it isn’t the purchase itself that has brought us joy, but the cessation of desire that the purchase has brought – the space thus created – that has allowed our native joy to surface. (2)

We called the attainment of space a transformational moment in the Seventies. It was the brief attainment of a higher-dimensional state of peace and joy.

There’s nothing material that I’m aware of that can bring on a divine state directly; I wish there were.

Yet at the same time, these states are to be found on the other side of the portal that the spiritual heart is, free for the asking and taking.

(2) That only what we can see, hear, taste, and touch is real.

Michael, Mother, Legions of Light, back in the closet. We’re not ready for you yet.

Eleven other dimensions of existence are closed to us when we come from the paradigm of empirical materialism. The soul that we are, in this body for a spell, does not exist in this paradigm. God does not. Reincarnation doesn’t. Etc. etc. What’s left?

Warring nations, condemned to chasing a steadily-shrinking resource base, the elite prospering and the masses falling by the wayside, by design.

Empirical materialism is too small to fit the actual circumstances of life.  It doesn’t allow us to explain any of the spiritual mysteries. In fact it obscures the answers. It condemns us to division and conflict, all the time being totally unnecessary.

(3) That the wealth of the few will trickle down to the masses.

Associated with President Ronald Reagan but around well before him, this theory says that money made by the elite will trickle down to the masses.  This assertion has been shown to have no merit. The elite simply amassed more and more wealth and practised vigilance and security to see that none was lost.

No crumbs were seen to fall from the tables of the wealthy. But the theory contributed to kicking the can of financial reformation down the road another decade or two.

(4) That rugged individualism will always brings success.

This notion may or may not be true in the best of all possible worlds, but, in a world that’s as far under Illuminati control as ours is (or was), individual effort, no matter how rugged, may not be the ultimate decider of success. Influence plus compliance may be, as helped along, we now see, by a honey trap, pedophilia, and blackmail.

(5) That human evolution is red in tooth and claw; only the fittest survive.

This application of Darwinian evolution to human society, which historians have dubbed “social Darwinism,” holds that life is a struggle for existence in which only the fittest survive; the weakest go to the wall.

This paradigm was used as justification for the European powers to colonize weaker nations in Africa and Asia. The world’s leading democracies of the time saw “civilizing” the world as “the white man’s burden.” (3)

The possible net impact of these beliefs is that all of us are competing for scarce resources in a struggle for existence. There’s no hope for help from God or anyone else invisible. They don’t exist.

There’s no use in opposing the wealth-gathering activities of the wealthy. They’re the fittest (obviously) and crumbs of wealth may/could/might spill from their table.

Such are the social controls envisioned or put in place that it ceases to be what you do and becomes who you know that determines survival and success. Rugged individualism may be for naught, as has been the case for probably millennia.

Finally, chasing experiences and possessions unto itself will not bring one happiness. Asking for it and searching for it in the heart until we find it definitely will.

When the Ring of Fire/Wave of Love hits, as I anticipate it doing, all of this will be crystal clear, obvious. (4)

After that, we’ll say: What else you got? This is great, but we want the whole package.

A man found a treasure buried in a field (his heart opened). He buried it again (the experience ended) and went away. He sold all he had (rid himself of all other desires) and bought that field (ascended).

The Ring of Fire will reveal to us the treasure buried in the field of our hearts.

(2) Andrew pointed out that our society is hypnotized with wanting. When we want intensely, we’ll do anything to satisfy it. When we have the object of our wanting, our wanting ceases and we experience peace.

We say, “Now that I have my dream car, I feel peace.” In reality we experience peace because we ceased wanting.  See Andrew Cohen, The Promise of Perfection. Lenox: Moksha Press, 1998.

I’m aware of Andrew’s fall from grace and think he has addressed it.
