Gaia Meditations

New Moon Message From Buryl Payne

I met Buryl some years ago and I must say I was impressed with his magnificent spirit. Despite body wreckage, he continues as if he had the health and voice of a 20-year old! His heart is solid and pure. But he has also done some really cool experiments, like having remote viewers all over the world successfully spin a freely suspended mobile.

I quoted from his lovely booklet “The Quantum Theory of Love” in my part 1 series from New Thought Horizons.

I’m always pleased to pass on messages from Buryl, knowing that the people who need it will find it!

The Renegade Guru

As a scientist and active meditator I am eager to spread the word about a new project. Meditation works, my recent experimental data suggest that people can influence nature with thought power. And if you join the work we do, the effect will be greater for everyone’s benefit.

I have completed (with the help of my assistants) compiling a list of several thousand meditation groups around the world. This has taken many hours of labor and I am in debt to pay them for the help that they have contributed.

It was very satisfying to discover that there were so many meditation groups. Each group has 10 to 20 or more meditators. Compared to the Earth’s total population that isn’t many, but mind power is a real, definite force: have observed time after time that a reduction in solar activity accompanies times of meditation.

And it has been known for many years that high sunspot activity can trigger more crimes, accidents, human upsets, psychotic episodes, ailments, and especially outbreaks of international battles.

Edgar Cayce, America’s greatest psychic, said many years ago that solar activity was in response to human thought and that meditations on a global scale would help calm the Sun and ease the stresses of Earth’s transition that was coming up. Continue reading →

Perfect and Eternal Memory

Would total recall be a curse or a boon? I ask because a recent book “Total Recall: How the eMemory revolution will change everything” started me thinking.

100% memory, in the form of digital files and images, perhaps enhanced by newer as-yet-undiscovered sensors, will be with us soon. This is a given part of the techno-revolution we are living through.

The book has a glowing introduction by Bill Gates and it all seems to take the point of view this is a good thing. But is it?

Even if we wished to, we may not be able to forget. Because you get the stuff beaten out of you at school for forgetting doesn’t mean all forgetting is bad! We have to filter some of our impressions, otherwise we would go into overload.

In fact, as I have written elsewhere, we have to selectively (and wisely) UN-remember certain things just to function at all. We have naturally in-built mechanisms to do this for us. Who can foresee what will happen if we forecefully override these mechanisms?

Anyway, who cares about out past, except us? Isn’t it just vanity; to believe that our little lives, of all those in history, are the ones that really matter? That we should be preserved, when greats such as St. Thomas Aquinas, Buddha and Beethoven have no “substance” of their selves and lives left behind?

Why would our kids and grandkids want to know all our stuff? They should be getting on with their own lives and living fully in the stream of progress of the human condition.

By chance, another review from the same writer looked at the opposite book. It’s title is “Delete: The virtue of forgetting in the digital age”. Continue reading →

Philosopher’s Notes a Mind Feast

One of the most exciting discoveries you can make on the Net is just how much good stuff is out there! The trick is finding it!

I’ve been on the Net for hours a day, most days, for years (working, of course) and never seen this guy before!

Brian Johnson has amassed a wealth of knowledge that is surpassed by only one other digital library I know and – thing is – this one is way quicker. It’s all chunked into bites just for you!

I’m talking about Brian Johnson’s “Philosopher’s Notes” and if I seem a little bright and dazzled, it’s because I am. Today I had one of those wish-I-had_thought-of-that moments and I’m gonna share it with you. Continue reading →

Spanking The Monkey In Utero

OK, let’s clear up the jargon first. “Spanking the monkey” means masturbation (mine doesn’t look much like a monkey but I kind of get it).

In utero is a Latin medical term for “in the womb”.

What? Kids masturbating before they are even born? Yes, isn’t it wildly funny?

I’ve put this more in context on my Sexuality and Mysticism page. Just to let you know there isn’t much that’s boring in this site, if anything!!

Thing is, here, we believe that sexuality and spirit go closely hand in hand. Sex is nothing to be ashamed of, or shunned. Get plenty I say. It’s good for the self-image and good to refresh needed energies.

Not for nothing the Tantric adepts believe in long, slow sex! Even in the Western tradition, sex with the priestess was often the only acknowledged way to God. Christians called the priestesses whores – but that’s just hypocritical B*S* and phoney.

God gave us sex. To me it’s holy; VERY holy.

Knowing What You Know

A Short Hierarchy Of Knowledge

(definition: hierarchy – ordered priority, one above another; seniority)

You are probably familiar with an elementary evolution of knowledge, usually attributed to Jalaludin Rumi (Persian, 13th Century, Sufi mystic and poet), which progresses as follows:

  1. Knowing and knowing that you know
  2. Knowing and not knowing that you know
  3. Not knowing but knowing that you don’t know
  4. Not knowing and not knowing that you don’t know

rumi the poet and sufiJalaludin Rumi

Level 4, of course, is a dangerous degree of ignorance. It could get you into trouble, whereas level 3 might not. When a person knows what they don’t know, at least they can take steps to remedy the deficit. But generals in battle, who think they know when they don’t, can get a lot of soldiers killed unnecessarily.

Thanks to the current education system, which teaches meaningless “realities” that cover up ignorance of actuality and life, most people complete their schooling at level 4, rather than level 1, which is where they should be.

In fact this simple hierarchy can be expanded considerably, to become an almost infinite series of gradations that could be considered a true Hierarchy Of Knowledge and this scale is the key to a great deal of effective and powerful knowledge.

I have a whole-hour talk on this theme in my “New Thought Horizons”, entitled “PowerLogic”. Here I have simplified it down and am sharing a few notes.

Let’s take a look… Continue reading →

Dark Night of the Soul

What Is The Dark Night of The Soul?

The Guru says: “when you are born you enter the world crying while everyone else is rejoicing and when you die, hopefully, you have lived such a life that everyone will be crying while you are rejoicing”.

If you are not living such a life, it’s not too late to turn things around. In fact it takes only an instant. I’ve found that all it takes is ONE decision.

There is a current wisdom which says that “You only live once. This is it. You don’t get a second chance. Life isn’t a dress rehearsal”. Phrases like these are given out liberally at motivation seminars. It’s a fine exhortation to inspire the best in people.

But actually this tragically disempowering “wisdom” is wrong; perniciously wrong.  And I am not talking about past lives.

There is a kind of logical snag in it. In truth you get two lives: the one you have had so far and the one that starts from now on. Think about this. Life so far has been made up of what you have been doing, thinking, what you have become, your attainments, your possessions, whether sparse or glamorous, are all part of this first installment of life.

But beginning in these next few seconds is your new and wonderful second life. At least it will be wonderful if you make it that way. You can effectively start again if you choose to. And if you are not too content with what your life has been so far, you’d be crazy not to want to change it, wouldn’t you?  Continue reading →
