The 2 Contrary States of the Human Soul...
by Tim Che'
Before you were aware of being you, you were only aware of being aware. It is called "Un-
conditioned Awareness"
Now, you are AWARE of being you. And you are aware of the things around you, which are extensions of that awareness.
Your AWARENESS, has fallen into division for the purpose of self-definition.
When you say, "I Am_______", you are exploring aspects of Self-definition. It's like trying new clothes to see how they fit.
Cain and Able are personifications of the two distinct functions of your own consciousness. They are names for the two contrary states of the human soul and it is told as the story of 2 brothers. Each represents a distinct outlook on the world, possessed by everyone. The first is the limited perception of the senses, and the second is the imaginative view of the world.
Cain, the first view, the first born, is a passive surrenderer to appearances. and an acceptance of life on the basis of the world without. This view inevitably leads to unsatisfied longing or to contentment with disillusion. It is also referred to, in modern culture, as the Left-Brain. This is the intellectual side of the mind which relies on logic and reasoning, and is endlessly measuring

Think Cosmically...
To THINK COSMICALLY one must be able to dissolve that which he sees into that which he knows.
Start doing it then by realizing that this objective universe is NOT made up of many substances and things.
It is made up entirely of electric waves of motion which simulate many substances and things which you have always accepted as real.
The moment you fully realize that not one thing in Nature is what it seems to be, you are beginning to transcend your senses by your growing ability to dissolve what you see into what you know.

The moment you fully realize that not one thing in Nature is what it seems to be, you are beginning to transcend your senses by your growing ability to dissolve what you see into what you know.
That principle constitutes the difference between the one who senses by
outward thinking, to the one who knows through inner cosmic thinking.
It marks the line of demarcation between the physical and the spiritual man. He who has passed that line thinks cosmically. He knows cause while he who senses is only aware of effects which he can never know.
~ Excerpt from 'God will work with you but not for you' by Lao Russell

The WOMBan...
"All Men and Women have a WOMb ANd each give birth to the ideas they consent to as the children of their consciousness" (Tim Che')
"Every Man is 'Mary' and birth to 'Christ' must give" (Neville)
You are Jesus, and your mother is your own consciousness. For consciousness is the cause of all, therefore, it is the great father-mother of all phenomena.
You and I are creatures of habit. We get into the habit of accepting as final the evidence of our senses. Wine is needed for the guests and my senses tell me that there is no wine, and I through habit am about to accept this lack as final. When I remember that my consciousness is the one and only reality, therefore if I deny the evidence of my senses and assume the consciousness of having sufficient wine, I have in a sense rebuked my mother or the consciousness which suggested lack

Detachment... Another Form of Deception
This is an important subject to understand in the quest to free the mind. We must endeavor to cultivate the mind as 'witness' as opposed to 'reactor' in order to see clearly how easily we are deceived. Many people like to preach "Detachment", only to unwittingly be creating a new "attachment" called "detachment"... hence, the deception. The words of the Buddha speak the truth... but the opposite of attachment is not detachment as our logical minds would incorrectly conclude. It's a tricky business, and I think Krishnamurti sets us straight with his words below:
"We are the things we possess, we are that to which we are attached.
Attachment to knowledge is not different
from any other gratifying addiction. Attachment is self-absorption,
whether at the lowest or at the highest level.
Attachment is self-deception, it is an escape from the hollowness of the self. The things to which we are attached, property, people, ideas, become all-important, for without the many things which fill its emptiness, the self is not.
The fear of not being makes for possession; and fear breeds illusion,
Conclusions, material or ideational, prevent the fruition of intelligence, the freedom in which alone reality can come into being; and without this freedom, cunning is taken for intelligence. The ways of cunning are always complex and destructive. It is this self-protective cunning that makes for attachment; and when attachment causes pain, it is this same cunning that seeks detachment and finds pleasure in
The understanding of the ways of cunning, the ways of the
self, is the beginning of intelligence."
"There is only attachment; there is no such thing as detachment.
When you react to attachment by becoming "detached" you are attached to something else.
So that whole process is one of attachment. You are attached to your wife or your husband, to your children, to ideas, to tradition, to authority, and so on; and your reaction to that attachment is detachment. The cultivation of detachment is the outcome of sorrow, pain. You want to escape from the pain of attachment, and your escape is to find something to which you think you can be attached. So there is only attachment, and it is a stupid mind that cultivates detachment. All the books say, "Be detached" but what is the truth of the matter? If you observe your own mind, you will see an extraordinary thing that
"We are the things we possess, we are that to which we are attached.
Attachment has no nobility
Attachment is self-deception, it is an escape from the hollowness of the self. The things to which we are attached, property, people, ideas, become all-important, for without the many things which fill its emptiness, the self is not.
The fear of not being makes for possession; and fear breeds illusion,
the bondage to conclusions.
Conclusions, material or ideational, prevent the fruition of intelligence, the freedom in which alone reality can come into being; and without this freedom, cunning is taken for intelligence. The ways of cunning are always complex and destructive. It is this self-protective cunning that makes for attachment; and when attachment causes pain, it is this same cunning that seeks detachment and finds pleasure in
the pride and vanity of
renunciation.
"There is only attachment; there is no such thing as detachment.
The mind
invents detachment as a reaction to the pain of attachment.
When you react to attachment by becoming "detached" you are attached to something else.

You are attached to your wife or your husband, to your children, to ideas, to tradition, to authority, and so on; and your reaction to that attachment is detachment.

through cultivating detachment, your mind is becoming attached to
something else."

Because YOU are there...
"I see you are worshiping days and months, seasons and years; I'm afraid I have labored over you in vain."
When I see a man I thought had outgrown these little concepts, turn back to images and days, months, seasons, and years, and call them holy - when there is no such thing in God's kingdom - I feel like Paul, that my labor has been in vain.
Every moment of time is holy and wherever you stand is holy.
It may be a bar, but it is a holy place, because you are there. Others may say it is wrong, but I ask you: who is standing there? God, and wherever God is, is holy ground. This is true of every person in the world, but they do not know it.

Your Mind and the Creation
"He who builds gods in his own image builds idols for his worshipping . He whose idol is fear and wrath cannot know the god of love. Until you know the god of love you are what your idol is, a miserable sinner to whom mercy must be shown by your idol who you, yourself, are. And you will be punished for your imagined self-made sins by you, yourself, for the idol you worship will show you no mercy until you are freed from him by knowing love"
Water and Lao Russell

Ever wonder about archons, aliens, devils, demons, satans and the like? Why is it that they are always hidden? Why is it that they only seem to affect or be seen by some people and not everyone? What are they actually? And what about the New-Age movement with its multi-dimensions, ascended masters, and channelings? The following video is the best explanation we have come across to date and it is based on the work of Walter and Lao Russell who was a living, illumined human being here on earth. This is all about the mind and its creative ability and power, keyed high or low. Watch it and learn a truth about who you are and a way to balance the thought-created energies aforementioned. InJoy!
OK, Time for a little disclaimer here...
The first 20 minutes of this video is priceless! The rest is a conversation by the 2 devout students of the Russell's lives works, which has a great deal of merit. When the conversation moves to the notion that it is OK, karma-wise, to physically defend property, family, community, nation etc. This is obviously their interpretation of what they have learned, and does not resonated with ours. To us, the need to defend is born out of a deep inner pattern of the mind for survival which has not yet been balanced. We have found that the best way to balance structures of the mind is through Ho'Oponopono and we recommend reading more about that at this page; http://lifestyleluminaries.blogspot.com/p/hooponopono.html
We will leave this video up because the first 20 minutes is mind-changing. Just know that we generally do not post, even really good content. if there is even one "Red Flag" in it that we find incongruent with what we have come to understand.
