when someone is yelling or raising their voice, be they right or wrong in their point, it is a certain sign that they are out of balance.
when in conflict, with this and that points are being made, the underlying main point is buried beneath them. the underlying point is always how the person is feeling toward the other. the points are just rational-i-zations for the feeling. And the feeling may or may not be valid at all. Feelings rule… thoughts are often there just to justify how someone is feeling.

Popularity is largely about meeting the people on the level they want to be met upon. Truth, i.e. alignment with ones own true nature, on the other hand is something very different. On rare occasion, they are one and the same.
In the podcast I respond to this email i received: What is the difference between soul and spirit? Regarding meditation, I’ve had spontaneous episodes of “no mind”. Mental chatter was suddenly gone, I could think and function but my head was quiet. This lasted a couple of weeks and tthen slowly everything went back to how it used to be. And has never come back. It feels like it just happened no matter what I was doing, meditating or not. As a matter of fact the first time it happened I wasn’t even meditating yet. So why meditate? I know you’ve addressed this ad nauseum, but could you clarify some more? Do you think the creepy astral entities lie to us?

Dear Michael. This is off topic, but I would love to know what you think of NDE experiencers, and pre-birth memories. I’ve listened to several hundreds of these testimonies, and they have several things in common, what disturbs me most is that many of them remember being forced to reincarnate, and also having their memories wiped. I don’t understand how we are supposed to correct mistakes if we can’t remember why we’re here nor our last life here.

we can spin every situation a million different ways and justify each one as “the truth”, “wisdom”, etc. How you ‘feel’ about
each may be “you” or is it your stress/issues/biases projecting? Discernment is a rare and illusive art. Practice

People do not feel their power so believe they have no significant influence upon others, so they say harsh things [sometimes the harshest they can think of] to others thinking only then will they be heard. The net effect of such behavior is never in their favor.

Paradox of Liberation
If you spend your life working on self improvement, all you have to show for it at the end of your life is an “improved” self.
Quote of Unknown Origin
paradox of liberation,108 awakenings x infinity, healthy self, personal process, moksha, shastras, relationship with, “undefended” self, behavioral modification
few are willing to face their issues, or even acknowledge their nature, it’s not about getting rid of them. It’s about having a healthy relationship with them.
Denial prolongs the imposition personal issues have upon your life and your behavior yet for most is just too self compromising to acknowledge, let alone embrace them
it takes determination to work with these things. The rewards are huge a healthy relationship with self is called liberation freedom, self actualization it’s not about getting rid of your issues. It’s about bringing the full light of awareness to them and being OK with that.
Greatness is nothing more than a healthy relationship with a sum total of who you are, If you knew the sum total of your life experiences you would know you are exactly where you are supposed to be. Trees are not meant to grow out of the ground like two by fours. It’s the contour, the curves, the hues, the shades, that birth individually, we are all unique.
