The content is pretty remarkable, as is the voice. A new revelation for the year ahead? What are your thoughts?</p> <p><a href="http://www.newmessage.org/speaks/new-year-2008.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.newmessage.org/speaks/new-year-2008.php</a> </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/423#post-21929 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 02:45:19 +0000 Mary 21929@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>bumping ... this really spoke to me today. Wow. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/818#post-17653 Mon, 05 Nov 2007 20:11:30 +0000 MsBinny 17653@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>I just read a stimulating article entitled 'The Universe Get Short-Changed' and it got me thinking... Which isn't really unusual... But this time I thought it'd be good to get some other perspectives... </p> <p>Personally, I agree that The Universe gets a raw deal most of the time. But I'm not sure that the author has really captured the reasons why... And I'm battling to figure out what they are</p> <p>Have a read and let me know what you think...<br /> <a href="http://www.socyberty.com/Religion/The-Universe-Gets-Short-Changed.55356" rel="nofollow">http://www.socyberty.com/Religion/The-Universe-Gets-Short-Changed.55356</a> </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680/page/2#post-15696 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 11:13:19 +0000 Aurora 15696@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>you are welcome :) </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680/page/2#post-15694 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 08:41:27 +0000 GrimNexus 15694@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>ok, you answered the question,<br /> because like you said if one is TRULY awakened, then it wouldn't matter what the body is apparently doing or not, there would be 'awareness of unbroken awareness' (which is what awareness already is--"it is not "you" that is aware."--so like i just said, it wouldn't matter what the body is apparently doing or not)<br /> yes it was meant as it was written, which is why i used: "traditionally referred to and understood as"</p> <p>thanks for the response </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680/page/2#post-15693 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 08:20:04 +0000 Aurora 15693@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>hm.....I would go as far as to say that if one is TRULY awakened, on that level there is no such thing as "deep asleep" that would be impossible. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680/page/2#post-15691 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 07:53:15 +0000 Aurora 15691@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>yes that is how it should be. But it is not "you" that is aware. If awareness did not exist at all times it would be "true death" and we would not be here at all to have our little discussion on human level. It is the body that is "deep asleep" not the awareness. </p> <p>quote grim: Because if you "are aware of it all" then that includes what is traditionally referred to and understood as: "unconsciousness while sleeping".</p> <p>lost you there! Did you mean it as it is written? What is "unconciousness"? ;) </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680/page/2#post-15680 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 23:02:33 +0000 GrimNexus 15680@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Aurora, you said:<br /> "grim, at the place where there is no more place to go. From where you are aware of it all. "</p> <p>So do you think that means you will be aware even when in 'deep sleep'?<br /> Because if you "are aware of it all" then that includes what is traditionally referred to and understood as: "unconsciousness while sleeping".</p> <p>Thoughts? </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680/page/2#post-15676 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 16:55:37 +0000 Aurora 15676@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>grim, at the place where there is no more place to go.

All these years I wondered what their name meant... I have a friend whose name means Beloved meadow by a river. Names are so descriptive...evoke images...not that we use them here, you understand.. Thank you again for the name and the pictures... </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15662 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 09:28:55 +0000 GrimNexus 15662@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>lol<br /> When you fill that gap, then where will you be? </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15659 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 09:19:49 +0000 Aurora 15659@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>am not sure what the "nope" was for .....</p> <p>You always pretend to "speak" from the level of the Absolute. What you don´t see is the contradiction that you speak at all but dismissing it. I notice no change in you, so I assume you did not find what you was aiming at. As I see it you have passed from one end to the other, ignoring what is between. </p> <p>I have told you that I am going nowhere until that gap is filled. And, if I am not interpreting the signs in a wrong way, it is about to happen. I have experienced, for a brief time, that creation AND the Absolute exists as One. So, I can talk on human level and simultainiously not on a basic absolute level. And every level in between. And I can be seperate and all at once. There is no contradiction. Honestly, I see no "apparently". </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15657 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 08:14:47 +0000 GrimNexus 15657@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>nope,<br /> not trying to be offensive,<br /> the universe isn't mumbling to itself, either </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15655 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 07:17:17 +0000 Aurora 15655@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>of course grim :) I was not saying anything either, as you well know. Don´t you?</p> <p>(the universe is mumbling to itself, being bored ;) ) </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15654 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 06:51:38 +0000 GrimNexus 15654@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Aurora,<br /> If you knew that you knew what i was apparently'speaking about'; then you'd know i wasn't speaking; even apparently. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15638 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 21:27:15 +0000 Aurora 15638@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>starion :) , "Lind" means lindentree, qvist is an old spelling for "kvist" which means twig. So the name means lindentwig. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15631 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 18:34:21 +0000 starion 15631@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Sweden is very beautiful... Thank you Aurora... As a child, had a family of Swedish people living nearby. Lindqvist was their last name. And that's how they spelled it. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15618 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 15:18:04 +0000 Aurora 15618@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Mitt sökande verkar sköta sig självt. Funkar bäst när jag ligger lågt. Jag har tappat bort din adress, om du vill höra av dig är min: <a href="mailto:aurora@mail.yellowstone.net">aurora@mail.yellowstone.net</a></p> <p>I am not that much into religion so can´t say how much is the same in the various ones. For me it seem to work best when I leave it alone to work at it´s own pace. That is why I don´t talk that much anymore. There seem to be something forming now that has nothing to do with either religion or what grim speaks about. I don´t know yet. </p> <p>yea starion, it´s swedish.

"inte" verkar ju mest intresserad av att framföra sina egna åsikter, så då får han väl göra det bäst han vill. Ända roliga jag får ut av det är att reta honom tillbax lite grann.<br /> Du vet säkert en hel del. Eftersom jag vet att du inte tycker om andras åsikter så har jag inga sådana mer än att som du säger "behöver vi veta allt det". Det kan ju vara en bra info för den som söker utan att söka, som jag. Att stärkas i sin tro att man redan är mer intim med "det" än man kanske trodde. Det passar mig. Det kanske inte pasar andra. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15613 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 13:50:58 +0000 starion 15613@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Såååå, hur är läget på landet för övrigt, när du inte försöker lösa grims gåtor?<br /> Wow, Aurora. What language is that? Hey you can say stuff none of us can translate... Neat.. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15578 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 22:25:22 +0000 GrimNexus 15578@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Ekanta you said:<br /> "Grim, why so many questions if ur enlightened?"</p> <p>Do you recognize questions?</p> <p>you also said: "I kind of know that (it was double sarcasm)"<br /> if you 'kind of know that', and it's 'double sarcasm' then you were serious, as well.<br /> To use the math you said i was using earlier, a negative times a negative = a positive.<br /> (and btw, last time, you added a 'not' to what i illustrated, so it would fit in with your quip) </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15573 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 20:34:15 +0000 Aurora 15573@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>trick question is, do we really need to know all of that? It seems to be very complicated to talk about and understand nothing. ;(</p> <p>Såååå, hur är läget på landet för övrigt, när du inte försöker lösa grims gåtor? </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15572 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 18:51:57 +0000 Ekanta 15572@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>I kind of know that (it was double sarcasm)<br /> Its just that, well, either u get it or not. On this forum its mostly not. </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15571 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 18:08:48 +0000 Aurora 15571@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>lol, Ekanta, grim does not want to know, he wants you to figure it out so that You know it too. That is a way to teach. :) </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15570 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 17:20:40 +0000 Ekanta 15570@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Grim, why so many questions if ur enlightened? </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15565 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 14:02:15 +0000 starion 15565@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>I could be at one with my FATHER and still be an individual... There's this theory that because God/ALL that IS, is so powerful, complete and total, that becoming at one with HIM means to lose YOURSELF and I tell you both are mutually respective of one another... </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15564 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 14:00:07 +0000 starion 15564@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>I shall repeat... the personality survives..even if body is dead..the persona, the personality...the part that makes a person individually different survives. I recognize my mother's visits though she has been DEAD since 1997 and can easily tell them apart from my grandmothers' visits even thought she has been Dead since 1991. If what you say is true, I would not know who visited me or why... There is more to a human being than the exterior physical self. There is the unseen personality that emanates a singularity that you and I recognize as someone we know... You believe that individuals get totally absorbed into the totality and no longer function as a single human being, If this is so, you would not recognize Jesus, or great souls like Yogananda and yet I state Yogananda is real and emanates a very real and intense beingness. (where he is now....) This universe is full of individuality, whether embodied or not... </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15549 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 04:02:35 +0000 shin 15549@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>{ Hence one of the marks of spiritual progress is how much of a “cosmic ego” we have. }</p> <p>Does that mean that the 'cultish worship' of the "cosmic ego" (-ism) is seen as progress? </p> http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/topic/680#post-15544 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 00:06:42 +0000 GrimNexus 15544@http://collectionofthoughts.com/bbpress/ <p>Additionally,<br /> if you're saying they're one in the same, then you obviously see such delineation as clearly as the sun.</p> <p>If you see the exactness of this delineation, then what exactly is it that keeps you identified and needing to contribute to: "It has helped me a lot lately."? --<br /> With what exactly? </p>
