seems unending, for ever since the beginning of human existence, theories and philosophies have been built around 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE
without which you can never be a full human being. Your sense of awareness dims as you 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE
transform a force that has gone awry. Most human beings totally forget or ignore the fact that 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE
cope with every aspect of yourself. Almost all human beings, with very, very few exceptions, cope with 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE

second deals with how this law manifests in human life; and the third deals with the nature 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
work of art, or a good relationship between human beings. This applies even to the creation of 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
from the spontaneous, effortless influx of creative ideas. Human beings are uncreative for two reasons: either they 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
creation is particularly striking in the area of human relationships. The creative, spontaneous, effortless experience that initially 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
bear, and sustain pleasure can be increased in human beings only gradually and is one of the 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
development can be determined by three gradations. The human being who is least developed and still full 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
to the degree that expansion is denied. All human beings are afraid of opening up to some 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
wrong with you, something that no other valuable human being shared. Therefore no one must be allowed 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
What are the obstacles prohibiting mutuality between two human beings? Usually this is explained, and quite accurately 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
and quite accurately in part, by the problems human beings have. Yet this does not really say 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
lacking. This is an all- important distinction. Usually human beings approach this problem in precisely the opposite 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
at this stage, but the fact remains that human beings live in this overall illusion of separateness 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
an outgoing and outflowing movement. When two separate human beings open up toward one another in mutuality 185 MUTUALITY: A COSMIC PRINCIPLE AND LAW
the outer affirmation. In other words the average human being's predicament is that he or she consciously 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL
sensed the truth of the many layers of human consciousness, there still was much difference between believing 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL
of a great need, perhaps of a legitimate human fulfillment, that creates on a less conscious level 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL
deep longing or need. At times, a legitimate human need may be distorted by a so-called neurotic 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL
to understand because they deal with concepts the human mind cannot grasp. You must use your intuitive 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL
capable of accepting its positive counterpart. Initially all human beings try to avoid undesirable experience. They defend 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES
possible way. The habitual reaction of the average human being to pleasurable experience is a momentary rejoicing 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES
your whole system, your whole organization of the human apparatus grows, you become more acclimatized to happiness 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES
now like to mention three different states of human consciousness. These states are very specific grades of 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES
for all the opposites that exist within the human soul. And thus, due to the limiting tendency 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
deal with the complications that arise out of human interaction on the concealed levels of your and 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
your and other people's destructiveness and ignorance. All human beings suffer from a basic conflict and pain 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
and wish to destroy exists in every single human being. You manage not to be aware of 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
the mutual interaction on the destructive levels between human beings, this question must be cleared up. Can 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
are you affected by others? Quite a few human beings live in a certain amount of harmony 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
point where they no longer initiate destructiveness. Most human beings are still in the state of fearful 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
giving and receiving. But a number of developed human beings are no longer in this state and 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED
and different approach. It is perhaps difficult for human beings to understand that consciousness permeates the entire 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
an entity. It permeates everything that exists. The human mind is geared to think of consciousness as 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
of personality, that it can exist only in human form, and is associated exclusively with the brain 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
separation, through processes impossible to convey to the human understanding, so that aspects of consciousness float around 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
universe, so to speak. Every trait familiar to human understanding, every attitude known in creation, every aspect 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
convey the full reality of these ideas because human language is much too limited. But I do 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
its many other subtle sensory expressions of which human beings with their limited spectrum of senses know 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
and so on, then you can perceive. The human being is a conglomeration of various aspects of 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
like appendages. It is the task of each human being in each incarnation to synthesize, unify and 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
that this is a novel way of explaining human existence. Naturally this not only applies to the 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
this not only applies to the level of human consciousness, but also to higher states of consciousness 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
of consciousness facilitates the synthesizing process immeasurably. The human predicament is the general lack of understanding of 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
the deep problem of self-identity. It is a human distortion to identify with any of the above-mentioned 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
painful struggle I have just described. No wonder human beings have so much resistance. And yet, what 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
expands. The immediately available consciousness of every living human being is usually not fully put to use 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
are not expanding and productive. As long as human beings are unable, or rather unwilling, to recognize 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
you realize that it is the task of human beings to carry negative aspects with them for 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS

a deep and apparently bottomless terror of the human soul disappears. Often this terror is not experienced 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
more than what you fear you are. The human personality is often on the brink of wanting 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
and thought processes is totally underestimated by most human beings. Hence, your processes for creating and re-creating 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS

The capacity to own up to being fallible, human, vulnerable, irrational, wrong, needy, defenseless, weak and unhappy 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS
self-illusions seems at first insurmountably difficult, since all human beings vaguely believe that the underlying truth is 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS
all that is evil, destructive, and negative in human nature is a result of defending against experiencing 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS
bad luck. We mentioned many times that the human predicament is the dualistic split, which is nothing 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS

being a split in the human consciousness itself. Human beings may feel one thing, believe another, and 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS

crisis and more pain. The duality that characterizes human consciousness results primarily from fear that is not 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE
and thus eliminated. To the degree that a human being has done this, even in childhood the 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE

which must be straightened out. As you know, human language itself presents difficulties and limitations, so that 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS

order to do this, the second approach to human spirituality must be adopted. It means shedding the 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS

know, meditation can be as varied as the human personality or life experience. Meditation is too vast 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS

This more comprehensive vision eliminates the fallacy of human helplessness. The truth leads people to assume self-responsibility 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS
