The physics of happiness… a happy life… The light bulb?!

The article about being nice, and smiling gurus brought me a lot of email responses… some disagreeing violently.

A few years ago I read a story about the Buddha…

In that story someone came to the bodhi tree where Buddha was teaching his disciples, and insulted the Buddha. His disciples were stunned to watch that the Buddha did not show any reaction. When the man left, his disciples told the Buddha how amazing it was that he didn’t get upset.

The Buddha (vibration around 400) said (this is the important thing, pay attention!): I got upset, I got angry, but I let it go so fast that you didn’t catch it.

Reading that changed my life. Dramatically.

Like you, I’d thought that I should never feel angry. Never be upset. Not feel anything other than ‘positive emotions’, and it was wrong to feel anything else.

I’d thought that happiness is like a forever sunshine… no clouds. No bad feelings. No bad thoughts.

But to be alive and awake is to feel everything, and not be stuck with anything.

Let me explain how a high vibration person is. I will use the simile, or analogy of a light bulb.

When you look at a light bulb that is on, you see continuous light. When you watch a movie, you see continuous motion.

Both are trompe l’oeil, a visual illusion: neither of those are continuous.

Alternating current powers the light bulb: the current goes from high to nothing, to high to nothing, fifty times a second… really fast. It goes from positive to negative, from negative to positive… and it goes through zero in between.

So if you could see it slowly enough (watch the short video at the end of the article) you would see that the light is on and off, rapidly alternating, in the US, it is 50 Hertz, meaning there 50 full cycles of on and off… positive and negative.

angry-happyYou look at the light bulb, and you only see the visual illusion: the light is on… not even a flicker.

I have already said what I think of your gurus: they are fake, and they are suppressing… and they are miserable because they are inauthentic.

But let me say a few words about myself: I teach. I am interested in finding a way that would cause the evolution of humans into human beings… a tall order, and probably won’t happen in my lifetime if ever.

The biggest enemy of this is the unconsciousness and the false consciousness of people. When you talk someone in prison, talking beautiful dreams won’t alter anything. you need to make them hate their prison before they would do anything. Hate the false consciousness they have assimilated through ‘culture’.

Do you suppose that you can make someone hate what they have through being nice?

Osho (I think) said that the reason more people aren’t moving towards the Light because people are not miserable enough.

Before people can give any energy to their evolution they first need to see and accept the state in which they are.

The truth is not pretty. I often gag from it… But somebody has to break the cycle of pretense, the cycle of lies… and wake you up.

the truth will set you freeThe truth will set you free but first it will piss you off…

If it pisses you off, you are really saying that you are happy to be where you are… screw the truth.

It takes a strong person to climb the tree of life… a huge capacity for being, and a huge capacity to take the truth.

Most of you are not strong, most of you fritter your energy on senseless, worthless activity that will never make a difference.

I am willing to talk to millions of people as long as I have any confidence that at least one person will move with what I say.

It’s not you? It’s fine. You don’t have to. You don’t have to… anything. I am fine with it… When the time comes, you’ll hear it, you’ll move, you’ll grow, you’ll expand… until then you are not ready…

Some of you are getting ready…. and some of you are ready.

I am doing the work for generations to come.

Or maybe for the next design of an intelligent species.

But for now, let me be ‘the Buddha’ for you and explain how to be you, how to feel what you feel, and not try to stick with anything… How to let go of the bad feelings, of the good feelings, how to feel what there is to feel.

How to be present, how to be awake, how to be there.

That is when we can find your Self… instead of the terrifying emptiness you see when you look.


Let’s wake you up and find your Self

  1. Sophie, great stuff, so true. Thank you. I used to follow many gurus highly esteeming them. Now, thanks to you, I don’t. I haven’t for several months. I have peace and I am content. I am more myself and I don’t have to pretend and smile and appear to be a fake flower. I can see that the only knowledge is the one I lived thru and experienced myself. I love working on becoming a human being instead of being a nicely decorated puppet controlled by many. I might be moving slow but I am definitely moving and stuff I couldn’t see several months ago I see clearly now. Thank you for waking me up.
