2ndchance Posted February 1, 2019 On 1/31/2019 at 9:36 AM, Everything said: It is actually the other way around. The grounds for official open contact with extra terrestrial races and inter dimensional relationships can only be expanded upon, once humanity has reached its evolution, through the law of non-interference, on their own choosing, to a point, where there is no violence, or hunger, etc. But yes, individually you can always choose to connect for your own growth and benefit. who cares about government-sanctioned open contact with other-dimensional beings? over the course of history, there are plenty of spiritually enlightened evolved beings who have managed to establish open contact and open communication with other-dimensional beings with their own power.. you think the buddha and jesus christ do not have the ability to connect and contact with other dimensional beings? that is pure naivety on your part. to let the government or any one else decide one's ability to connect with to contact with other-dimensional beings is pure foolishness.. the government only exists as a fragment of our own delusions.. if you rise above your own delusions, you can even dissolve the power of mortal mundane government in your lives..

If you take that away from them, you take away their own journey into their own unique and individual growth. You may offer a different perspective, but no one has to ever accept it at all. Unless they wish to and it feels good for them to do so, then they simply recognize it as a recollection of their own greater integration of their own accesible greater knowing in and as and of their own unique individual life. Thus freedom ensues for all evermore. I have never asked anyone to accept my own views nor do I depend on anyone'e else validation of my own rules views. Everyone is free to be a slave or an ascended buddha god. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the buddha didn't believe he can become a Buddha or if he was already a buddha, he wouldn't have gone through the pains of achieving buddhahood. If you do not believe there is a part of you which is already enlightened, then you will never reach enlightenment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrpasserby Posted February 2, 2019 @2ndchance There is intense non *painful cultivation found here at the DBs, I have found that having a laugh with us is good medicine, just look at the signature on my post. After reading much of the perfected use of language in some of the posts I have been thinking of changing my user name from mrpasserby to Academically Challenged.

Owledge Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Skepticism doesn't mean devoted disbelief, but the word has been hijacked by many such people. Your OP looks down on doubt, while showing a lack of such, or being overly certain of things. Accept that truth is boring. Then it will actually not be. But I have said too much.

2ndchance Posted February 4, 2019 Enlightenment Buddhahood Christ Consciousness means the transformation of our inner demons, our dark sides into the Light. https://www.goldenelixir.com/taoism/inner_gods.html In addition to the gods and goddesses who reside in heaven, a veritable pantheon of Taoist deities also exists within the human being. These Taoist deities control the gates of spiritual power, spiritual evolution and material power like perfect health, immortality, wealth, higher emotions. However, there are also demons in human beings who control the gates of suffering, disease, death, poverty and lower emotions of fear, hatred, anxieties, worries, etc. Skepticism and Doubts are two main tools used by the demons in us to eradicate our own beliefs in our own divine power. What you believe determine your own reality. You can be a chinese male but if you believe enough that you can become a blond nordic god like thor, you can even transform yourself from being a chinese male into thor himself. Just an analogy. The possibilities of Godhood is infinitely endless. Personally, I wouldn't wanna transform into Thor. I would rather transform into Sephiroth of Final Fantasy.

Owledge Posted February 4, 2019 @2ndchance I think you are afraid of skepticism, of doubt. The concepts have control over you, and thus you cannot control them as tools serving your light. Without using those tools (which are inherently neutral before we apply a flavor to them) people evidently develop severe vulnerabilities. I think your imbalancing fixation on belief is based on power-tripping, which is, again, fear-driven. The more you storm forward towards the light, the more power the shadows gain. Related to what a crafty trickster fear in the mind can be: You can of course go on and explore your mind-pleasing (interesting) extreme and see where it leads. It would be part of God's infinite diversity. (Although I wouldn't say you are in any way uncommon. ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohhh ..... 4 hours ago, 2ndchance said: Just an analogy. The possibilities of Godhood is infinitely endless. Personally, I wouldn't wanna transform into Thor. I would rather transform into Sephiroth of Final Fantasy. Thats the part I have an issue with ; the possibilities of transformation being " infinitely endless " and the fantasy stuff - both are linked actually. The thing is ; your potential may be hugely greater than you realise , this is important to keep in mind when on the path of development, transformation, initiation . But each person has a limit , an 'orbit' an 'extension of possibilities', and not realising this can lead to fantasy and time wasting pursuits that could have been better spent developing our own true unique and individual nature. This usually is connected with the process of and releases 'creativity' - that is what is meant in ' becoming like the / a God/s .' However, I am speaking from a position of studying AND practising , mostly in the Western Hermetic Traditions and Australian Aboriginal Shamanic Tradition ( with 'excursions' into other traditions as well ), in all of that this is an important teaching and realisation. I am not saying there are NOT those groups and individuals in this sphere that get involved in fantasies, but going on what actually worked and delivered what it said it would , and, on many levels, continually improved my life and made it better. Perusing the fantasies of infinite endless possibilities never produced any great change or physical real results . - only in moments of delusion . Ie. it never lasted like the other stuff did , it was fantasy, imagination or fooling myself - and seen others do it too ! I have had great vision and imagination, I really had to go against the flow, system, peers, etc to manifest what I wanted in the way I wanted to , but I never envisioned the extent of the success. You cant expect a shark to live on a mountain, or a goat to live in the ocean. But we can all develop ourselves to have the best life we can - within the sphere of our potentials .
