TODAY'S CONSIDERATIONS 

A REVIEW AND SUMMATION OF THE KEY UNDERSTANDINGS THAT CAME 
VIA THE VISION 
(Continued) 

Other clarifications that came via the vision follow. 

181. It showed that - if seekers are willing to see that there is far more to the "journey" than replacing old "bad" roles with new "good" roles - then they have a chance to move on along the "path," complete all seven of the steps, and see that all of the nonsense they had been taught is wiped out completely when an understanding of the functioning of the totality comes. 

182. It is the vision that can reveal the manner in which the totality functions: 

183. "Functioning" refers to how all in this universe actually operates and how it has always operated and how all that is or was in all universes has functioned and is functioning and will always function. 

184. "Totality" refers to every happening that has ever happened, that is presently happening, and that will eventually happen, infinitely. 

185. Upon the manifestation of Full Realization which the vision can bring about, the complete understanding comes of how all has happened and how all happens and how all will forever happen. How inclusive is that understanding? Among all that is understood are the following: 

*** How this universe and all prior universes came to be; 

*** How consciousness manifests in a space or form; 

*** Where You were in the days and weeks prior to "conception"; 

*** Where You Were prior to consciousness and manifestation; 

*** What is relative and What Is Absolute; 

*** Why no external Power or God or Goddesses or "Creator" can exist and how that can be proved scientifically; 

*** Why no truth can be found except within but why a "guide" is required to focus Your search for Truth; 

*** Why You Were never born and cannot die; 

*** Why, post-manifestation, there will be no eternal form or body or "you"; 

*** Why all notions of "who-ness" are false: 

*** Why notions about a "Supreme Self" are dualistic, all talk about Oneness notwithstanding; 

*** Why neither eternal reward nor punishment awaits; 

*** Why abiding unnaturally and / or supernaturally is insane and why only natural living is sane; 

*** Why Reality is non-dual; 

*** How persons come to believe that they are in the world instead of understanding that "the world" is in them . . . in their "minds"; 

*** Why "memories" about things relative have no validity; 

*** What the difference is between awareness and consciousness; 

*** Why only "the nothingness" is valid, ultimately; 

*** The difference between "love" and "Real Love"; 

*** How to find Real Love in "an unreal world"; 

*** Why most persons fear independence and actually do not prefer it at all over their dependencies and their co-dependencies; 

*** Why there is nothing that is personal; 

*** What Your Original Nature is; 

*** How to move through the relative existence as if dancing lightly; 

*** Why dual-minded persons are unstable in all ways; 

*** Why all things relative are much ado about nothing; 

*** How Reality can be overlaid on the relative; 

*** Why I AM THAT and I AM are not two; 

. . . to be continued.

Five Free eBooks

Compliments of Andy Gugar, Jr.,
the following eBooks are available without charge for you or for friends:

I.
"GOOD vs. EVIL?" or "IGNORANCE, STUPIDITY, and INSANITY?"

The content of this eBook deals with one of the most common but erroneous beliefs that the non-Realized masses cling to and which they will fight about (and even kill over), namely, that there is a planet-wide duel going on between “the forces of good and evil” in the universe.

Either (1) the ancient view is spot on: that the "ills of the planet" are rooted in evil people, in people not being religious enough or spiritual enough, and are caused solely by bad morality; or, (2) the "ills of the planet" are rooted in ignorance, stupidity and insanity and "being good" or "being moral" does not put an end to ignorance, does not eliminate stupidity, and does not treat insanity in any way.

II.
"THE VISION"

Comments regarding the free eBook entitled “THE VISION”:

“My thanks to you and Andy.” – Andrew “Mac” McMaster

“Thanks so much for the book! And, by the way, it is brilliant and the most effective pointing that you have done. It has served to help clear the remaining blockages.” – Stan Cross

“Greatly appreciate having “THE VISION” added to my Henderson resource library that is situated on the right side of my bed for easy access! Eternally grateful for what was received and what was given.” – Robert Rigby

“‘THE VISION’ is such a well-written, condensed version of the Nisarga Yoga approach to understanding and enjoying Reality that I feel it can serve as a must-read ‘meditation guide’ for all earnest seekers.” – Andy Gugar, Jr.

III.
"Sapolsky, Maharaj, and the Non-Dual Teachings"

Dr. Robert Maurice Sapolsky is an American neuroendocrinologist; a professor of biology, neuroscience, and neurosurgery at Stanford University; a researcher; an author; and a Research Associate at the National Museums of Kenya.

There is much that a non-dualist or Advaitin or Nisargan can relate to by comparing and contrasting what Sapolsky reveals about the way certain troops of baboons live in Africa with the way that humans abide all around the globe.

This 152-page eBook catalogues the common, non-dual message shared by Sapolsky and Maharaj and reveals the ways that Sapolsky’s scientific research supports the non-dual pointers offered by Maharaj.

IV.
Seeking

In “PART ONE” it will be seen that most persons on the planet are not seeking, and most will never seek, but for those who are seeking, most will face several obstacles:

In “PART TWO” of this book, it will be seen why many criticized Maharaj for “changing his message in his later talks.” It will be seen that the changes were not about changing the message per se as much as about changing his methodology as he experimented with one version of the Ultimate Medicine after another in order to try to find an effective means for addressing the Ultimate Sickness.

He tried a religious version of the Medicine, a Spiritual version of the Medicine, and finally settled on a version which addressed to Sickness at its core . . . at the mental and emotional level.

V.
"THE MOST DANGEROUS BELIEF OF ALL"

“Dangerous” is a term that can only apply during the relative existence, but of those who do commit suicide, for example, how many shoot themselves in the foot over and over until they “bleed out”? None. They shoot themselves in the head. Why? In order to try to stop the noise - to try to stop the chatter of a thousand monkeys – to stop the noisy mind which is the area that stores the ideas, notions, concepts, mind-stuff, etc. which drives them into the depths of insanity.

And what are those ideas, notions, concepts, etc. called, collectively? "Their beliefs." The irony? They are not their beliefs at all. They are the beliefs of “others” that were set in place via programming, conditioning, etc. and which persons then think are their own.

And what are those beliefs rooted in, and what reinforces those beliefs and convinces persons that they are sacred and worth fighting over and even sometimes worth dying for? Blind faith.

This 337-page eBook discusses those issues in detail.
