I have imagined God in my image and likeness ... I have related to a God in my image and likeness ... and now that I write it I think ... it is well, very good, quite good.
Yes; he is like me.
Many will be horrified that the Chief is like me, but if I am like Him, he is like me ... of course.
How faithful is the mirror in which he reflected us?
It is the mirror of God ... it must be very good.
Otherwise I could never have related to Him.
And it even occurs to me that The Boss is much more considerate and understanding than those under Him ... and it is true, maybe God is not so screwed, maybe those below are the ones who have painted the path so difficult.
The highest ideal of understanding is He, the highest manifestation of brotherhood is He, the most sublime goodness is in Him, the most compassionate compassion ... ha, it is He.
With another ... it happened differently. One day I read about Sanat Kumara ... I was impressed; I imagined it there ... in the Gobi desert, almost alone, I think there were two more beings by my side, I imagined it very seriously. And I could hardly speak of Him. It struck me so much to know the existence of that Being that… I could hardly tell my companion of Him, and she will also have been impressed by that Being… recently she told me she will tell Someone about ... I can't write the name ... I'm wrong. The point is that she never forgot about Him; It had been years that I had told him about the one who lived in the Gobi ...
For a long time I could not pronounce his name, I hardly felt encouraged to think of Him, his image made me feel intimate. With him I could not think of relating in any way. I knew that if I started thinking about Him, I would immediately perceive Him and ... I didn't want to have the look of that Being analyzing me, observing me in my lower humanities.
Only a long time ago I could start thinking about it. Is it because he is gone? I think he left, I read around.
I could not have related to God if I had not imagined it sympathetic ... always by my side, in good times and bad ... my bad, of course, when I fell into my dark truths ... feelings.
I could not relate to a God who did not share my humanity, with someone who had nothing in common, or very little.
It is that God is imperfect, now that I think about it ... it is imperfect through me. That's why we understand each other!
If I am a part of Him and I am not perfect, he is not yet, in that small part.
And that must be why God understands me, because I am He.
At some point in my life ... I no longer remember when it was, I realized that the Chief could not be deceived, and that He knew all my psychological vericuets. And I started living life with this strange feeling and presence ... of a whole ... police department in my head.
And He ... or they, some of his subordinates, were always watching my mind and my actions; watching ...
My belief is that they cannot be cheated simply.
My life remained the same ... in all aspects, only that ... I got used to his presence, and I lived my humanity ... doing everything that perhaps did not correspond to the highest ethical demands of a pilgrim; is that ... on the other hand I knew that I could not fool myself, that I could not be a hypocrite with what I felt; and until he did not stop feeling it, he would continue living, or doing those things ... somewhat questionable.
When I saw around me I noticed that ... he was not a fucked up guy, despite ... of all the filth that crossed my mind.
I think it was before I knew that the Chief had no chance of deceiving him that I began to observe my thoughts, to let him loose; Maybe influenced by Krishnamurti. I knew they were thoughts, that I had them ... and we had to observe them, at least for a moment, before censoring them ...
So with this mental reality I have been living. And they have accompanied me. Sometimes maybe not ... and that is my measurement, the reference point, the ethical thermostat with which I have moved. One way or another he saw his presence, or sometimes the censor was the I Ching. The I Ching located me, it marked me if I was in a correct position in front of life or not ... for a very long time I got "Youth foolishness" insistently Ching told me "foolish young man" ... ha.
On other occasions he did not answer me, he told me anything really, that is the way of not responding to the I Ching. And time passed and still did not answer ... Until there again.
I have believed that sometimes I do not see manifestations for another reason: so that my temper is forged ... they leave me alone. Without the approval… ha, and they look at me… to see what I do?
As I am very demanding with me so I have conceived them, too.
Man has always made God as he pleases or not?
How is it really down is it really up? How am I, is he? How is it up is it really down?
It is as if he were a God for every man then. The Chief will judge me by my own ethics, not more than that.
Yes, one God for every man will be a wonderful world. If everyone lived with conviction, consequently the idea of their God would be all better, but there are many people who are not consistent with that image of God that they have created, or adopted.
Yes, I have been thinking about the issue of guilt towards God, feeling guilty, or that mystical race to heaven in which one seems to go last, that feeling of not be pure, dignified, etc. And I don't think it's good, it's a very big difference, it's a qualitative difference. I must aspire to be consistent with my own values; It would be unfair to measure us with theirs.
So I am walking along the thin line of freedom, these beliefs have left me at that point: freedom.
And I Ching has pushed me a lot towards that place; is he who daily promotes that I took this license to say what and what not?
Now even, I am already lazy, I ask things and cases that I should solve only. It is what (I have always been a person capable of justifying everything; ha) is that I do not believe that I am so high; and life is very complex, it is variable, people are one day one thing and another day another, so I take care of myself.
While I understand that some people conceive their mistakes as a kind of perfect path that will lead them sooner or later to be wiser, I prefer not to be so wrong. Will I live very much in the present? Yes, maybe it comes from there; Time flies for me and the path to the Chief requires absolute seriousness.
My vision of life and humanity changed a lot, my partner tells me, she sees it. I don't care so much about men; I wanted to help before: in this and that: I worried and did things for the rest. Now I am only interested in my ascent. It seems that evolution becomes selfish, but in reality it is pragmatic: A day in the Light must be a hundred times more useful than it. I will take out an account, I will think it is enough. Leaving with God is the shortest way to change the world.
I have a sadness ... now I want to go. This world lacks a lot to be nice. And it is for this reason that I have changed, I realized that.
And I have become a complaining person; Yesterday I read of those who spread pessimism a kind of vampirism that aims to spread the rest, and I said: The whore! I'm becoming that. But I see in my environment and I see that nothing is happening, you are reading this and many others, there are people who read other spiritual things etc., etc., while most of them. It remains as if nothing. And I've surrounded myself with the older one. What a salame!
I see that I am a fish ha; A salmon specifically, in my circle of relationships I am a perfect psalm: I go up the river.
But hey, that's where it spawns.
Freedom was the subject, the measure, to believe it, to believe above (deep down it also implies that) ... a lot of people, how to determine what is good and bad : What to do? And that will naturally affect the rest. Sounds horrible and dogmatic.
But what must be done in front of those sleeping gods, those people who do not assume their divinity, those manifestations of God that are ... in development ...
You have to take responsibility, that's it. It is terrible ... this to ascend, is: "leave everything and follow me"
Because Jesus said: everything.
"Unity" would arise if we were all on the same path (Jesus, God ... etc.), but as it is not, it is not for some of those around us ... or remotely, and it is not in ourselves yet. And neither is it to the same extent in some than in others; So that is why the Master wisely said: "Leave everything and follow me" Because it is the most sensible, and perhaps the shortest path.
Yes ... yes, from the popular point of view ascension is selfish ... the old and dear I Ching always drives me to the beyond, we must jump ... let go of the ties, now it is said.
The goal justifies it, it is God.
Fear, the ghost that haunts me is ... to distract me ... to get entangled in intellectual mysticism; put aside the essential and lose myself in ... my own speech, in justifications.
Freedom ... in the face of so much information, that is done to me: a discourse of my own, a belief system that I have armed with the foundations of ... here and there. But is it the right one ... in the face of so much information, so much spiritual philosophy, so many messages, I'm afraid of losing myself in that profile of the "weak good-natured" who "lets everything take its course" ... as I Ching says.
A ghost chases me, and I think it persecutes many pilgrims: Do not judge.
"Do not judge, for not being judged. Because with the judgment with which you judge you will be judged, and with the measure with which you measure it will be measured to you ”
"I am not who to judge ..."
"Judge, only judge God ..." etc., etc.
The origin of all this I think is from the Bible, from a couple of passages; but ultimately they will not get hell ... those who judge: they will only be judged as they have done ... that is, if my judgments about others have not been very bad, those who fall on me will not be.
Not only to light seekers, this philosophical line ... or rather this interpretation that we have made, or have instilled in us, is deeply rooted in much of society. And it is doing wrong, it sinks us, it represses us, and we drown in injustice.
I have the impression that this attitude is a great obstacle to overcome: What is the difference between discerning and judging?
Because discern, discernment ... is very well seen on the spiritual path; but judge ... ah ... no, that never ... ever!
Then I immersed myself in the dictionaries to know what a difference there is. The truth is that the meaning does not differ much, and in some dictionaries the difference is very subtle, or directly non-existent, it is a synonym.
But I can see in the synonyms of one thing and the other a more benevolent character of discernment, perhaps more contemplative ... yes, I think it is that: Judging is an action: more concrete, energetic.
