In my experience The Source of All (the Dao) has a manifesting impulse and a non-manifesting impulse - hence the dream I had demonstrating both. Many humans (and other soul-bearing species) can access both "soul-bearing" is used in a non-technical sense

I once had a dream that demonstrated relationships and intelligences present in that process. On waking I re-entered the dream space and did experiments to test the reality of what I was shown

My own view is that Existence is generated, always penetrated and finally terminated by the Unmanifest. Once I wondered about ancient names for The Source of All and immediately the word Empyrean appeared spelt in my mind - as used by Aristotle - but even Aristotle was struggling to find the suitable human words https://everything.explained.today/Empyrean/ The Source of All provides life force and intent for all substance and intelligence - until TSoA has had enough experiences at which stage Existence ceases and a Mahapralaya continues until the next Existence. Mahāpralaya (महाप्रलय).—'the great dissolution', the total annihilation of the universe at the end of the life of Brahman, when all the lokas with their inhabitants, the gods, saints &c. including Brahman himself are annihilated; महाप्रलयमारुत (mahāpralayamāruta) ...... Ve.3.4. https://www.wisdomlib.org/definition/mahapralaya

Grok is to move beyond theoretical/received understandings - and to experience what stands under the perceived reality. Hence arises genuine understanding. English is good when used carefully. It is said that the genuine/inner initiate is a wordsmith - making sure that the words used actually begin/stimulate a valued process.

It is one thing to still the conscious part of the mind, it is quite another to nourish your humanness - to produce aliveness in mind and emotions. Perhaps your humanness needs to be whole in order to swim in the cosmic ocean

I am not sure that chaos is the right word. How does chaos form a non-chaotic thing. A thing must be low-chaotic to have a form Perhaps humans do not perceive easily what Is before Existence occurs

Fortunately we are moving into the Age of Aquarius. Not too many monastics in future

Perhaps religions are designed to facilitate the management and use of humans https://exopolitics.org/world-religions-are-historical-records-of-et-contact-genetic-experiments-in-multiple-edens/ These days the concept of humans as co-creators allows freedom from subservience

It seems that karma operates in all planes of Existence - so that the very energy-substance is altered. This means that an entity naturally living within this galaxy builds its body from galactic substance and thereby participates in the karmic patterning of that substance. The activities of the entity alter flows and relationships so that there is more karma, conventionally existing on the level of groups, species, planets, solar systems etc. There may be other karma concerning intent but that is less obvious in this galaxy at present. The essence of karma seems to be pressure on the hierarchy of greater entities within which planets etc exist/serve. Thus the Lipika Lords (Lords of Karma, Recording Angels) pressure all intelligences internal to their system to conform to the directionality of their enveloping entity. Adverse karma may be experienced as discomfort by the enveloping entity - with resulting action to diminish the difficulty. Positive karma is better but apparently still needs to be worked out so that the active entity is properly free in its operations within yet higher planes and systems

2 Corinthians 6:18 “And I will be a father to you, And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,” Says the Lord Almighty. My own view is that a father delegates parts of the family business to the offspring. I am not sure how well that works with surrender.

My experiments indicate that some dreams are actual experiences in parallel universes/timelines. Parallel processing speeds up human and cosmic development

It seems that Earth is a pivot operating on various planes

Was that an out-of-body experience?

I have often wondered if humans are purely decorative

Now you have tamed your humanness, do you have a higher purpose?

Various bad things have been done to me, but looking back, the bad things turned out to be good for me - changing my course for a better one. It may take lifetimes to get a real-time transpersonal perspective. Meanwhile the human feels better if it punishes the other party. That used to be called righteous anger - a wonderful feeling being angry and righteous while punishing.

I was with a family yesterday and the youngest child would not finish the porridge she had requested - and was asking for other food. The mother was offended and insisted the girl finish the porridge first. The girl refused. The mother was inclined to punish. I asked the mother to look at the energy of girl's intestines. Immediately the mother could see that the girl's intestines had had enough porridge. So she decided to serve the girl in a smaller bowl in future.

I have yet to find a situation where all the guilt lies on one side

A friend phoned a few days ago, sounding hoarse and complaining about her throat. I asked her if she could visualize a rope around her neck. She could. "Who is holding the rope?" She could see her younger son. So: - Forgive yourself for being such a shit that he needed to hang you - Forgive him for having had to hang you A minute later her voice had become normal and she was feeling much better There were more family members involved but I shortened the account. The events occurred earlier on this timeline

Have a look at the spiritual patrons.

Are the spiritual patrons of those practices compatible with each other?

One of the attributes of the heart is direct knowing without mental process. Direct knowing mostly develops after first stage enlightenment. To be fully functional requires control of the fifth sub-plane of the heart plane

My own experience is of progression. Once the bodily desires are properly managed, most of that management becomes subconscious. Similarly management of emotions and thoughts is increasingly subconscious. An obvious example is a mother physically and emotionally comforting a distressed child while having a rational conversation with her partner. Eventually the initiate has most of its attention in relationships and intent, with the internal matters largely delegated to internal intelligences

It is good to believe. My own approach however is by experiment

Sometimes there is group karma - or planetary karma - or systemic karma ......
