Become all you can become with Sophie
He that won't be counselled, can't be helped
You can’t have it both ways… and you have to have it both waysThe West, the culture of the West is forcing. Forceful. Goal oriented. Mercantile.
No one is interested in the process, only in the result.
Western people are unhappy, and don’t even know the meaning of joy. Continue reading “The path is very narrow. Strait and narrow?”
When your life is about you… when your life is about others… when your life is about ideas.. these are different sizes of a life you can have. In this article we’ll examine the effects of these levels on your peace of mind, level of fulfillment, the quality of your life.
We’ll start with me… and my experience.
In 1988 January 1, around 3 minutes after the ball dropped on Times Square, I declared something that ultimately turned my life around.

Limiting beliefs… can you zap them like Christie Marie Sheldon pretends to do? Does listening to some guru, watching some Mind Valley video help you chuck them, change them, or eliminate them?
Limiting beliefs will not go anywhere. You have to find another way to win: stop listening to them.
I have limiting beliefs, but you would not know from my actions. I don’t consider my mind chatter significant. I only listen to advisors that I hired… I never hired my mind chatter. Continue reading “Limiting beliefs… what should you do about them?”
Possibilities in Landmark Education equal DNA capacities… but does declaring a possibility turn a capacity on?
The Landmark Education shortcut that doesn’t work:
“the possibility I declare for myself and my life”
“the possibility I invent for myself and my life”
the words that follow are: the possibility of being prosperous, happy, powerful, free, happy, passionately happy, blah blah blah… inspiring for a moment. A moment. Not even a day. I checked google and a grand total of 4 pages had the exact words… don’t you think it’s telling? I do… Continue reading “Does declaring a possibility turn a capacity on?”
Vishen Lakhiani is the owner of MindValley… a huge company promoting gurus and their programs.
The original article was to promote his webinar workshop on becoming limitless, on October 13. The webinar’s job is to promote their continuity, i.e. subscription to the $29 a month Mindvalley Academy.
Because so many people are interested in becoming limitless, or at least happier, I am going to review the article… I can’t review the webinar, or something I haven’t happened… but I can look at the person and his work any time, and make bold assertions to their results.
One thing that will clue me in is the truthfulness of this article… or the lack of truthfulness. I don’t mean honesty, by the way. I mean: are the principles valid? Do the methods produce the results he claims they produce? Is the thinking correct?
This may take me days… I just hope I won’t miss the deadline.
So, here is the article by Vishen Lakhiani:
The 5 Stages Of Consciousness Evolution: Where Would You Stand Today?

I visited a website today that is packed with articles about 5 steps to this and 7 steps to that, about happiness, about your body, about money.
And people are eating it up. They share it. They comment… Yaay, some different ways to pursue what you desire.
But all those readers are like lemmings throwing themselves off the cliff… What?
This past week I took a break from nonfiction reading, and have been reading novels and novellas again.

I was feeling blue today. I opened the windows, and the noise from the outside was deafening… compared to the silence I have enjoyed all winter. I got a headache, I started to think of moving to someplace where it’s quiet… no grass mowers, no road repair, no people.
I felt the sadness. Grieving. My mind was digging up stories of sadness. One of my favorite book characters is sad, and is attracted to sad women… Henry Bosch.
Especially around a character, Cassie Black who later re-appears as Lena, if I remember correctly. Sad. Loss. Aloneness.

It’s a lot like “empty your cup” in the last article… as long as you know, you are stuck with it…
I watched the movie “Something The Lord Made” again.
This time I paid attention to the music, and started to see the underlying message the film makers were making: poor black kid… blah blah blah.
The story is about a smart, ambitious black kid, who wants to be a doctor, but has no money to go to school. He starts working, first as a janitor, then as a lab assistant, and then as a researcher for a surgeon in a hospital, and develops the method for the first heart surgery, the blue baby surgery.
Each soul correction deals with a dominant pretense. A front, that hides the truth. A way to have two you’s, a dualistic way of living that is killing life.
If you read the few articles I have published on soul corrections, you may be able to see below the surface, and see what the pretense is. Most can’t. Especially their own.
But it’s there, hiding one or two layers deep.
Then we believe our own lies, make our masks permanent, and suffer.

Reprinted…
I find myself weeping, gripped with remorse… remorse the injustice 30,000 years ago… Remorse for the loss of brilliance, the loss of future that could have been.
Watch the documentary in the end, if you have time.
If you can weep, you have empathy. If you can’t… oh well…
