Science vs. Reality

Science had decided that unless something was definable and measurable (‘reality is measurement’), it was unreal and imaginary. Thus, science invalidated any serious study of inquiry into the human value of love, compassion, beauty, forgiveness, inspiration, faith, compassion, loyalty, gratitude, hope, and happiness – in other words, all that constitutes the actual core and reality of human existence and motivation.
 
Science is also unable to grasp the significance of the subtle and the intangible. It is, however, the best tool man has had the thus far for evaluating and manipulating the physical world.
 

The Only Real Significance

… significant to earthly life, they have even more importance for spiritual destiny when physical life ends. Consciousness both precedes this physical life and continues long after it.

It could be said that within a certain context, the only real significance of this earthly life is the consequences that ensue to one’s spiritual reality, which has a timeless trajectory. The destiny of the spirit will be for better or worse, depending on the choices and decisions one makes. This statement is in agreement with the teachings of every major religion and true spiritual teachers throughout human history.
 

Love

Love emanates from the heart.  When we are in the presence of people who love each other, we pick up that energy.  The love of our loved ones, pets, and friends is the love of Divinity for us.  When we go to bed at night, we give thanks that we were surrounded with love all day.  Each moment is possible only because of love.  The writing of this book (Letting Go) is possible only because of love.

In the state of love, we wake up every morning and give thanks for another day of life, and we seek to make life better for everyone around us.  Because of the presence of love, things go better; the eggs get fried better; the ducky gets saved; the kitty gets fed; and the doggie is adopted from the pound and brought home.  We share our love with everything around us, all forms of life: kitties, doggies, other people, all living things…

Existence is Self-Complete

Q: Is the Self the ‘I’?

A: It is difficult for the mind to understand absolute self-identity.  The mind is used to thinking in terms of a subject and a predicate in which a statement adjuncts a noun with a verb, such as beingness or is-ness or doingness.  That which has existence is already total and complete or it would not exist.  Existence does not require dependence on some other condition.  Conditional existence is therefore an illusion of the ego/mind which believes that nothing exists except as dependent on something outside itself.  Existence is self-complete and unconditional. Existence is solely by the grace of God, by Divine ordinance. (This statement verifies at calibration level 998.) Appearance reflects conditions and is therefore transitory.

Earmarks of True Teachers

The naïve spiritual initiate is easily swayed by trappings and reputations of spiritual figures and the charisma of those who have many followers. Without the spiritual awareness of advanced states of consciousness, the spiritual seeker has no means of guidance, and popularity clouds judgment. … Earmarks of true teachers are humility, simplicity, lovingness, compassion, and peacefulness. There is no financial charge for conveying truth, as there is no interest in money, personal power, or gain.
