Content Warning
- the posts titled "for Sunday evening's meditation-clearing include
news links, which may be to news articles on distressing topics. Other
posts address issues related to conflict, violence & war, and
matters such as changing the personality of oppressors. As I work
through updating these posts,. I will try to add CWs here, but that will
take some time.
Do the
limits set in the brains of mediums and sitters contribute to the apparent bias
towards Christianity/neochristianity? A particularly pertinent question in
light of come comments by the Frenchman Alan Kardec, in "The Spirits
Book".

There
is a way of thinking that is aimed at helping people cope with situations in
life by being dispassionate, and that way of thinking is based on the saying "It's
not personal". In many circumstances, that is absolute, utter and
complete rubbish - and acknowledging the emotions and dealing with them
constructively, or acknowledging the personal nature of attacks being made upon
oneself (including psychic attack) can be vital in terms of both coping
effectively with the situation, and also dealing with the situation as it should be, spiritually,
for the Highest Spiritual Good, or in a BPLF way - which may require people to
try to prevent a repetition of the problem situation/behaviour.
Also,
a few thoughts about the difficulty of getting others to listen, the saying “we
train others how to treat us” - which is particularly apt in light of the
original saying I commenced consideration of in this post :) , and being self
congratulatory rather than professional.

As an
exercise from a development group I was sitting in at the time (and have left
now), we all prepared “Emergency Action Plans”. Not a bad idea - this is mine,
which includes a little on the basic skills of flaming, shielding and
grounding.

I
don’t find water or running water a barrier to magick - in fact, some of the
best places for doing magick are near waterfalls, and my shamanism includes
merging with water for travel and using water to carry or receive messages. Running
water has an energy, often cleansing unless polluted, but the effects of that
need to be considered in terms of its strength in comparison to other energy
sources.

The
flaw that too many people in Pagan/spiritual/New Age/alternative movements have
of being afraid or anti- things being organised or even, at times, a little
hierarchical. This stupid attitudes is completely counter to any form of
advanced or genuinely serious working, such as rescuing uncooperatives.

A note
that there will be a coming guest post on this topic (I’m still waiting,
actually - sorry), and a few thoughts on doing magick without focus tools, and
that sometimes just ‘being’ can be enough to have a constructive effect on Reality
- provided you’ve done the work required to allow that to happen first!

the Landing on Planet Earth" by Stuart Holroyd (Pub.

My
take on this badly misnamed 50 year old style of attempting to communicate and
some of its flaws. Overall, however, it is “good – in fact, brilliant”. Finally,
a few reading links including some on the olympic games (which don’t merit capitals, in my view).

the PS
A
comment that, contrary to what is often found in New Age/personal
growth/spiritual movements, sometimes it is possible to learn constructively
from negative experiences … even if that is just to avoid being burned again
but leavened with a few comments about TEEMs and past life regressions to sometimes
help deal constructively with negative experiences. Also, the extent to which
training and practice are needed.

Some
thoughts about growth orientation stimulated by a psychological drama about people
completely failing to deal with or resolve issues (I haven’t include the film’s title – it doesn’t deserve the
publicity), with some contrasting perspectives/examples of how to successfully
handle such issues from the Richard Bach book "Jonathan Livingston
Seagull" and – allegedly –
Gautama Buddha, and some thoughts from me about the pragmatic need, at times,
to keep functioning to avoid losing one’s home etc and the general failure of
attempts to blackmail the Universe. Finally a few reading links including a
couple I disagree with (including an explanation as to why I do).

A
dream which led to reflections on the benefits of genuineness rather than
bigness when celebrating, and doing the celebrating for things that are
meaningful to the person concerned rather than when society says we should. Also,
what energy gets put into something that is being built by possibly grumpy
workers? How does that intersect with people – future residents and current
builders - having differing levels of energy and sensitivity they have? Finally,
is a component of the problems on the roads due to … stupidity?

Good
and bad films, including the watering down of the damage done by the crusades
in some films, the unjust vilification of wolves and a perspective on them from
the point of view of spirit rescue. Comments include the importance of
non-physical strength and the furphy that special words, formulae or rituals
can perform amazing results without adequate practice, development, preparation
and effort on the part of the person using them.
