Today's Considerations
Once again, it can be seen how totally spot on Maharaj was when
he spoke "from the perspective of the Universal Consciousness,"
unlike the masses who speak from the standpoint of a political agenda or a
religious agenda or a spiritual agenda or a money-making agenda.
Early on, when Maharaj was using a religious / non-duality
version of the Ultimate Medicine, he was not talking solely from the
perspective of the Universal Consciousness. Proof? Religious concepts are a
recent invention (some 5000 years old or so); thus, such talk cannot be “Universal”
in its nature. Additionally, when Maharaj was using a spiritual / non-duality
version of the Ultimate Medicine, he was not talking solely from the
perspective of the Universal Consciousness. Proof?
Spirituality and spiritual exercises and spiritual accoutrements
(special bowls on special pillows being struck by special sticks, special smoke,
speaking humming sounds, crystals, amulets, robes, holy books, etc.) are all relatively
recent inventions, so talks about those cannot be “Universal” in their nature.
And seeing the truth of that fact about a spiritual / non-duality
version of the Ultimate Medicine, Maharaj’s advised: “Give up spirituality”
and “follow your normal inclinations" and "forget spirituality
So, what is “universal,” as far as humans are concerned? A
composite unity (an elemental plant food body circulating air and
conscious-energy) which has always had a brain but which only developed a mind
within a part of the brain during relatively recent stages of evolution as
the brain expanded from a one-cup size to a three-and-one-half-cup size.
The brain is “universal”; the mind is not, so Maharaj’s
talks were truly offered from the perspective of the Universal Consciousness
when he began focusing on the disastrous effects of the human mind and called for
seekers to taken the action to be free from that mind which was originally an
asset but has become humankind’s greatest liability.
So, Maharaj’s talks when he spoke from the Universal
Consciousness urged seekers to be rid of the mind, to be free of all beliefs,
to reach a state of zero concepts, etc. Those pointers were pointing the way back
to the “Universal Awareness” and to abiding under the auspices of the presently-manifested Universal Consciousness and under the auspices of the Universal
Awareness (which can be known only when the Universal Consciousness is
manifested and only when the blockages of the consciousness have been removed, blockages which were set in place early on by programming
and conditioning and domestication and acculturation and brainwashing and
indoctrination).
So what does (1) one of Maharaj’s key points, to “Give up
spirituality” and “follow your normal inclinations" and "forget
spirituality," share in common with (2) one of the New York Daily News’s points in their headline
yesterday announcing “God isn’t fixing this”?
Some said that Maharaj showed great courage when he began
sharing a no-religion, no-spirituality, mind-focused message. Courage had
nothing to do with it. Wisdom had everything to do with it. Being free of magical
thinking that dreams up other-worldly Powers who supposedly control events of earth had
everything to do with it. Being sane and sound and free of being driven by nonsensical
beliefs had everything to do with it.
Same with the Daily News: Courage had nothing to do with it.
Wisdom had everything to do with it. Being free of magical thinking that dreams
up other-worldly Powers who control events of earth had everything to do with
it. Being sane and sound and free of being driven by nonsensical beliefs had
everything to do with it.
That is what an ability to tap into the Universal Consciousness
and to speak from that perspective looks like. It looks just like Maharaj’s pointers
advising persons to give up trying to use a God to get what they want and to
avoid what they do not want to face or do not want to take action in regards to. It looks
like the New York Daily News’s pointer advising persons to give up trying to
use a God to get what they want and to give up using meaningless platitudes in order to avoid what
one does not want to face and avoid having to take action.
Both Maharaj pointers above and the Daily News’s headline
from yesterday were derived from the Universal Consciousness, not from the all-pervasive
blocked consciousness and not from the agendas of the false personality identifications
assigned and assumed all over the planet which determine the billions of thoughts
which are thought on a daily basis by billions of persons all over the planet
and which determine the billions of statements which are uttered on a daily
basis by billions of persons all over the planet.
It is only that Universal Consciousness which can speak
while “bypassing” any and all who-ness or WHO-ness, any and all personality identifications.
Anything spoken from the viewpoint of a false identity must
be false. Yesterday, it was seen how many U.S. politicians on the right speak
from the perspective of an ego-state (be that ego-state “The Super Religious One”
or “The Spiritual Giant”).
Maharaj also saw how many were speaking from the perspective
of these ego-states: “The Super Religious One”
or “The Spiritual Giant” or “The Super Seeker” or “The Supreme Self” or “God.” Because
all of those are false identities, any thoughts they generate or words they
inspire must also be false.
Words such as “The people killed in the latest of a constant
series of mass murders in the U.S. are in our thoughts and prayers” are spoken
from the perspective of “The Super Religious One” and / or “The Spiritual Giant.”
On a planet where the misery and suffering of humanity are rotted
in the mind (the source of thoughts) and where dependent, fear-based persons are
constantly looking to some other-worldly Power to guard and protect them both now
and for eternity (a key motive of their prayers), then the use of a trite cliché about "thoughts and prayers" in
every case of mass murder is to allow inaction to continue.
To speak from the blocked consciousness rather than from the
Universal Consciousness and to speak from the perspective of “The Super
Religious One” and / or “The Spiritual Giant” is to avoid having to take any
action. That allows for escapism and avoidance and dissociation and from having to
act; it provides a free ticket to “Foo Foo Land” or to “The Land of Hidden
Payoffs.” The only difference in those playing the role of “The Holy Men” in
India
and those playing “The Holy Man” in the U.S. yesterday
is in outward appearance.
Beyond their differing outward appearances, all of them have developed strategies which allow them
to take no action. For whatever reason that one does not want to take an action
which is clearly being called for, the act of trying to escape the relative - or
trying to escape having to take an action that is obviously being called for – has
nothing to with being “Realized” or “Holy” or Special.” It only has to do with
self-serving motives and hidden agendas.
And self-serving motives and hidden agendas have nothing to
do with what can be revealed via the Universal Consciousness and have everything
to do with being driven by the selfish desires of false personality
identifications.
Please enter the silence of contemplation.
