Spirituality for Living

Health is related to spirituality, the mind-body connection. Like how laughter is healing or at least stabilizing. I have made some observations in life, and in my observation those who are truly happy tend to be very healthy.  Also, peoples issues tend to correspond to their temperament. Anyone else observe this?

So by default if I’m not healthy, I can’t be happy? Oh not true. I’m technically not healthy, but I manage better for not allowing that to dictate my coping. I am healthier for being happy.

Biological harmony can potentially arise from spiritual harmony. Meditation has been proven to do that. This is why they allow it as well as touch therapy in hospitals now. If anything, therapies that were thought to be formerly only spiritual are booming. Myself I focus on personal experience, so I didn’t need anyone to vouch for these things. I read to broaden my view, [...] Continue to Seek…

For me daily, my muscles behave as if I have done hard labour all day upon waking. I never seem relaxed, and for all intents and purposes I never am. I have a somatic instinct. My shape even seems to change to people. If it’s off, in moments of composure my skeleton realigns, even some fine joints from the weirdness of having over elastic connective tissue. Even face shape change. Basic bio mass remains the same of course, and my indicator traits don’t alter unless I’m in a really strange mood.

I do tend to get into a non caring mode, and my physical appearance in that mode is actually relaxed. The systems get relaxed because I want to climb out of my body. I’m positively relaxed then, so perhaps should care about my body and my physical existence less. When I’m least interested in my physical existence this is when [...] Continue to Seek…

The truth of physicality is the common sense of our culture, yet everyone ignores it as they busily manifest their spiritual wounds. Excess leading to the palace of wisdom, but that’s if you can get back. For many, wisdom is the compensation for life as f#*&ed up.

You can say it’s this way for me for a variety of reasons, but when I see people I see these things. A male friend might comment on how good looking a female is. I see her hugging herself crying in a dark bedroom as she’s just been taken advantage of for the umpteenth time, and then overdosing on diet pills so it won’t be that way next time because she just isn’t pretty enough to be really loved. This is what I see when I see the hot girl.  It doesn’t exactly inspire lust.  I see a man who works out, middle [...] Continue to Seek…

Life seems naturally contiguous. Thought and mood and action and reaction, there is no break in that cycle that I can see. Like we are all dancing to the same mad piper in the middle of a fairy ring made of the dust of individuality and self respect. This song is picked up without much choice because we live with each other, and it seems to be the only way we can communicate. So actions taken and words said are inevitably done and said against this backdrop. The song is really discordant. Old values clash with new realities. Personal integrity gets lost in the fun house mirror refraction of self knowledge, seen in the fun house mirror of public opinion. We are all thrust into this illusion no matter how perceptive we are, or how noble our ideals may have already been. Like music its rhythms permeate our awareness [...] Continue to Seek…

Symbolism and metaphors are too personal and individual to ever be understood by scientific processes, and they diagnose vivid ID imagery emerging to consciousness as psychosis. Then I was a psychotic infant, and why am I capable of coherent behaviour? Because my consciousness is different my health is different, because my health is different my consciousness is different. Both of those statements are true though paradoxical. 

Jung said insanity is a sane response to an insane situation.  Many build up a resistance to sorrow. The natural emotional responses eventually cease being so natural. Like when enraged or in deep sorrow, I tend to laugh. Weeping just doesn’t come naturally anymore. Also for a time I found the words ‘I love you’ funny.

“Demonization” happens of witches and other social deviances. The society has an organic process of isolating the “differences”. Setting the “freaks” aside, and they have with me. Now they label [...] Continue to Seek…

The biggest complaint everyone has is the lack of energy. I hear it constantly. We as a culture are told to control ourselves. To subdue our feelings and motivations, and then wonder why we have no motivation. Energy doesn’t come from what we are supposed to do, that saps energy. We have to re-route energy to behave ourselves, behave as we are expected to, and we channel energy into work we don’t want to do which saps even more energy. Then channel energy into poorly founded relationships which consumes energy also. Like a short circuit it just bleeds us dry.

Our lack of energy isn’t a mystery. That ache we feel, those headaches, come from straining to do the unnatural, and then we go to church or something and strain to keep the faith. It makes me tired just thinking of it.  Yet it is amazing how everyone just accepts [...] Continue to Seek…

We still practice magic today.  They just call it science and reject the original context. Thus they poison everyone silly.

How is science different? That they experiment without prejudice would be a lie. Scientific hypotheses has as much intuition as reason behind it. Even Einstein said so, and the students of magic didn’t turn a blind eye to results. Science is empirical, but how does that make it better?   A simple mistake of getting their math wrong can lead to a great tragedy. Mistaken interpretation of the strictly empirical can and does do that daily. It is not a protection.  Many scientists admit to drawing intuitive conclusions then testing them. Science was spawned by magic, and many of the most ardent supporters of science like Arthur Clarke said that a sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic.

Any modern medicines are being derived from what were considered witchcraft remedies. They have even found [...] Continue to Seek…

It’s actually quite interesting how very far from gone witchcraft is. It wasn’t really shamanism, and wasn’t driven by a tribal view of nature. The phrase old wives tales for example.  Often it not always refers to the lore of witchcraft. Women in particular, and to a lesser degree men, have been making intuitive observations about life for a very long time. Even in myth there have been witches, hell in Norse myth, cerydwen, circe, those who live apart and know the seemingly unknown.  Men make poor gods, but we keep to this day making men gods. They disconnect from nature. We supposedly conquered it, but this has made us a bit psycho. We call those who bear the witches gift today psycho.

Witches were the first mediums, and modern mediums are BS by comparison. This is why people went to the village on Halloween to hear from their departed, [...] Continue to Seek…

There is no them, and since there is no them why not get a better image of us? Why even think over long on the idea of there being no them? There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who think there are two kinds of people, and those who don’t. There is a third. Ones who don’t think on that question at all.

I prefer to see myself. I am quite narcissistic that way. It makes my life better, and I’m quite hooked on self knowledge. I always see myself. If arguing with another, I see myself. If choosing to eat, I see myself. In deciding I’m not hungry, I see myself. In seeing my memory, I see myself. In seeing the world it came from, I see myself. In seeing who I love, I see myself. In seeing who I don’t love, I see myself. In hurting [...] Continue to Seek…

Questions come from quest, from seeking, not identifying what we disengage from and don’t believe in. We question based on what we believe might be true. Perhaps we know nothing at all, and all our knowing is just self expression. Does that invalidate it? I would put forth that there is no reality in an absolute sense, but there is a virtual reality. It is our imaginations. When we imagine a negative, we create it. When we imagine enemies, we become one. These are very real.

When you break something down without a sense of its center, you wind up with a broken down thing and then a very scary sense of the mortality of the world. But the broken down thing is not the thing. It is an essence that ever allowed it that form. A very analytical person likely sees a lot of details in life, and this [...] Continue to Seek…
