There are two philosophies about life and spiritual reality which seem completely contradictory. One says that the 130 FINDING TRUE ABUNDANCE BY GOING THROUGH YOUR FEAR

as though it were an enemy, but in reality the enemy sits within, a product of false 130 FINDING TRUE ABUNDANCE BY GOING THROUGH YOUR FEAR

are reality, just as each planet is a reality and exists both within and without. Now, when 130 FINDING TRUE ABUNDANCE BY GOING THROUGH YOUR FEAR

can be reexamined as to its truthfulness and reality. The second is impressing, molding and directing the 131 INTERACTION BETWEEN EXPRESSION AND IMPRESSION

two basic misunderstandings. The first is misinterpretation of reality, in other words, illusion. Illusion produces confusion along 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
perceptions, and value systems are in accordance with reality that you could be afraid of loving. The 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
of underestimation of the self and misinterpretation of reality create the barriers to loving and its apparent 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
is the wisdom that comes from accurately perceiving reality. It is the nucleus of distorted perceptions, this 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
goodness does not give you a sense of reality, because you have not truly discovered that which 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
of love and that there is no further reality beyond that. So you cannot experience the truth 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
only to lose them again and doubt the reality of your few moments of bliss. Later they 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
will know that it is not the ultimate reality of you because you will have experienced sufficiently 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
because you will have experienced sufficiently often the reality of your real inner being. Hence your real 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
way. You will be nearer to loving because reality and loving are much more interconnected than self-righteous 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
something else, you again get away from the reality of the immediate now and therefore new attempts 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF
to be made to get back to the reality of your feelings. Also, you often substitute fear 133 LOVE: NOT A COMMANDMENT, BUT SPONTANEOUS SOUL MOVEMENT OF THE INNER SELF

DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY Greetings, my dearest, dearest friends. Blessings for every 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY
These moments are always deep experiences of the reality of being, of vibrant aliveness, light and truth 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY
the live center can then be compared to reality, as it unfolds. The ego-faculties will help in 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY
and intelligence will adjust imbalances and deviation from reality. But when reason is used to deny the 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY
it in more practical terms, cruelty exists because reality is misinterpreted, which causes the individual to further 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY

next step: ask yourself whether you are in reality, whether what you believe is true or not 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY

Just because they are apparently so much in reality, it is easy to overlook where they are 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY

cruelty is also generated by your misinterpretation of reality. This is extremely strong and obvious, therefore rather 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY
you think it already has happened, while in reality nothing could be further from the truth. When 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY

to demands being made upon you. So, the reality is exactly the opposite of what you think 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN
