I need clarification. any thoughts?
Greetings and salutations,
I stumbled upon this site in December 2017, and since, I have spent a great deal of time on this site. When first introduced, I was told that this website was the path to cosmic illumination. So, I dived in head first. Not only trying enlighten myself but also trying to understand the nuances.
Certainly, I have inexplicably come to the conclusion, there has to be a creator, but I am living this life from my point of view, and this reality is mine, and I truly am the architect of my own desires. My own free will to chose my path.
All the research and meditation seems to indicate to me that I am the maker of this reality I am in, and it is up to me to steer it in the direction that I want it to go.
If I choose to make it about me, and what I want in life, then I have failed.
When you give up your desire to fulfill yourself with worldly goods, the true enlightenment is realizing that in giving of yourself to others in need is paramount.
I have witnessed this on numerous occasions. Just by imagining the narrative I expect, I see the changes around me. When I doubt my beliefs, I watch it crash and burn.
My question is, Is this the message I'm suppose to get??
I expected to see more proof that we all were part of a collective consciousness, and more proof of god, the cosmos, with the infinite universe being closer that we imagine. Am I traveling down the wrong path?

Re: I need clarification. any thoughts?
Maybe. Be warned it can get Easy to get inside your thoughts like a dog chasing its own tail. There is something out there in my opinion, but what that is, is beyond our current perspective. Live respectably and look out for your neighbors, be kind, humanity’s inability to love is what plagued us deepest.

"Shh the show is starting"
"But what is it about"
"wait are you telling me you don't know?"
"No i don't think i ever have"
Sleepers dream at nights gaze
dreamers lie awake to stare
the ones who work in the sun are singing
so the ones who sit sickly idle
can rest
but while the world spins in song
the gears pulling the clock along
tick tock so the rust can fall
the scholars picking the pieces up
along the way the path that waits
many twists and turns about
the explorers are always lost
same for the scholars thought
mind the maze
the brush, they bare thorns friend
O.P.A.L

Destroying Dogmatic Paradigms
We live in one era where culture is frowned upon and where a generation of children demands things that they don't even know. We live in one era where information abounds everywhere but it is when we live most uninformed. We love being fooled, we love hoaxes and conspiracy theories that are more interesting than genuine scientific findings.
We live in one era where kicking a ball or showing my ass is more appreciated than the many noble ideas of many and where the goal of many is to be a living evil rogue who takes advantage of unsuspecting victims. We love being sleepy with technology, it intoxicates us like wine and without realizing it consumes our souls in a voracious way.
Today self-idolatry in social networks is more important than shaking hands, today a reality show is more important than a book that tells a harsh reality. It is more important to exalt and worship lies and appearances. Now they say: tell me how you dress and I will tell you who you are as they point a finger at the Muslim as a terrorist for wearing a caftan and look down on women wearing hijab.
Xenophobia spreads as metastasis, without any brake, even worse in towns as close as Latin America. Now I see life as a mountain that I try to climb but there is an avalanche. An avalanche of stupidity, ignorance and falsehood, but it is what most like, prefer a lie than a harsh reality. Now due to the isolation of humanity, the mask of peace and philanthropy has dropped, now is when the sad reality floods social networks but people still do not pay attention, they are afraid to face the truth.
There are many misunderstood voices screaming without being heard, many people in good faith without being understood, many with a different thought without anyone giving them a chance to argue, to speak. That is why I celebrate the defeated who want to get up, I give a hug to the defects of each one, I share with various cultures thus avoiding the dreaded ignorance, I embrace art and all those who make us human beings and I offer to the side of the poor who he has a book in his hand. How many times have I not seen humble people reading on a sidewalk in the streets; feeding his spirit beyond anything else.
Today I am proud of the experiences, good and bad, because I know that all of them have been real. I have lived a long time in a short time and I have much more to tell about what the new generations will be able to do in their old age.
From now on I break down all the bars I lived in, I remove any mental prison from me, because peace is at liberty to decide who you are and what you will become by not allowing others to flood you with their poison.
Per aspera ad astra

Re: I need clarification. any thoughts?
I like your ideas Zah. You’ve proven one of my one fallacies and I love that, I was born in this generation of a sea of mindless masses but never took to their water. I always figured there must be something else or at the very least humanity is going the wrong wrong path. However I think your take is entirely too nihilistic, mankind wakes up a little more day by day and those who struggle to see? It is up to those with a lantern to guide, tho I will say some are inconsolable and are very unwilling to step outside their cage, unfortunately all I can say for them is natural selection and attempt to pitch some ideas.

Re: I need clarification. any thoughts?
Greetings dear friend loBol, I would like to share with you these lines that, in continuity with your previously expressed idea, agree with the deteriorated human thought imperfections Nihilistic
How to dialogue with a group of ideas that has already reached such a degree of disbelief in the possibilities of affirmation? A first difficulty, typical of this type of thinking, is that it is omniexclusive by definition: those who are not nihilistic are “still metaphysical and that position that should justly provoke confrontation, end up making it unnecessary or irrelevant, insofar as it is already he defined metaphysics as an outnumbered position.
If we overcome this initial difficulty, however, we can ask ourselves: for a thought that dispenses with an anchor, with firm points of support, does this notion of general impoverishment of the world seem otherwise ethnocentric? In the end, why does the era of finished metaphysics, of the loss of authenticity and of the historical sense of being, which are internal and internal processes of the West, have to coincide (or even cause) necessarily with the disintegration of other cultures?
Where is the guarantee that the mere reading of the clock of the History of the West is already sufficient to understand the internal situation of all the other societies in the world? Equally paradoxical is to support, on the one hand, Gehlen's post-history idea and defend now - again - an isochronous vision of human society, more Eurocentric and flatter than Hegelian evolutionism itself
The truth is simply circumstantial and multiform

The fool is the journeyman, which is the second highest status one can attain besides being truly enlightened. Gurdjieff speaks of the fragmentation of the I’s: the notion that every simian autonomous impulse is fragmented and entirely separate, I need to eat, I need to drink, I need to piss, I need to get laid, I need to drink, I need to wake up, I need to eat. The unattainable.
The fool is the hero of the journey that admits his human nature in confrontation with a great evil, peril, or adversary. The fool confronts head on with heroic courage towards the quest to the means of an end, to get out of the slump he’s in. A hero without flaws can be no hero at all.
Or so we think or have been taught to think. Does the hero’s journey have no end? What if the end is pure chaos, confronted with nothingness? Where is the light? That is why the fool can never be an apprentice, never attain true enlightenment before his untimely demise. He is born of a different caste than the enlightenment who know and endure pain as a means to achieving peace. The fool avoids it at all costs in his own reckless demise.
Still, he stands out for his confrontation with the unknown and his story serves to humble us. When the Christos added itself to our consciousness we knew that a fool did indeed become an apprentice, but just once or twice we know of. Before his method was corrupted and used to enslave the world, his coming invoked the wrath of deceit that dark magic had cursed the will of the earth to. The empire never fell. A great sleep began that would not be broken for centuries.
Now that the veil has been lifted and the esoteric interpretations of the will of the Christos which has transmuted itself into our stories and culture will rise again as the dark forces return twice as strong. The quintessential moment has occurred in fact and the end of the thread loops itself back around once more in the fickle infinity of time of the present moment we have now arrived on the other side of.
But what to do, what to do with us? Ours is one side of the story and is just as utterly chaotic and meaningless as the other side, and knowing this makes a slip into nihilism that much easier. Yet the will lives on and so does the potential. The serpent that I represent presently shows two sides devouring each other, the flow of time. The only way to mark time is through change, as all past chroniclers have done. The equation of change has a hidden factor that is our purpose, as eht Namuh. The factor is karma.

The Concept of the Soul
It seems to me that when we speak of the soul we express ourselves in very similar terms. In fact, when you mention the soul in an embryonic state, you use the same metaphor used by Gurdjieff. Although there are several terms that describe what we call "soul", that is to say "the conscience", "the astral body", "the divine presence", "the beloved", "the precious twin", etc. We can define the soul as that entity that can manifest itself at will in the cellular world (physical body) as long as it has reached a certain maturity.
As the soul is part of the molecular world, once it reaches a certain development, it can survive the death of the physical body, likewise, when the soul reaches its maximum development, that is, it crystallizes, it can serve as a vehicle for the manifestation of another entity, that is, the spirit, which belongs to the electronic world. There are several theories about the creation of a soul; some of them are expressed in an apparently contradictory way; However, almost all of them agree on the need that a soul has to go through a certain number of lives (or physical bodies) before it can "display all its intrinsic qualities."
Theories that speak of the "creation of a soul" or the "awakening of a soul" refer to this process. The way to verify this is to examine, for example, the following types of person:
The first type of person feels that there is a reality greater than that of their ordinary life, without knowing exactly what it is about. Occasionally he is busy looking for an answer to this concern, but he is always distracted. Try various types of B influences, such as Yoga, Kabala, Shamanism, Gurdjieff, etc. However, although he recognizes their value, he never deepens or fully applies to any of these disciplines, he is content to know that there is an alternative that points to such a higher reality, and at the end of his life he ends up taking refuge in his local religion or ends in confusion.
The second type of person who equally feels the existence of a higher reality, but who takes his search more seriously; And if you find a teacher, school, or discipline, you apply yourself to learning everything you need to embark on esoteric work in that direction. However, his weaknesses are so violent that they hinder his work, making him intermittent; and although he maintains the same direction, he does not have sufficient concentration to work constantly.
Consider a third type of person, who from an early age understands the existence of a higher reality; You have even experienced it and deeply desire to find a way to make it permanent. He spares no effort to find the conditions that allow him to achieve his goal. You know that you need to find a type of organization that will help you stay focused on your goal. When you find a school or a conscious teacher, you recognize its authenticity and He adheres to his work with total dedication and discipline for the rest of his life.
With these three examples of people I want to illustrate souls in different degrees of development, you can also verify that most of the people that exist on the planet do not perceive the existence of a higher reality; And if they believe in it, their faith is blind and superstitious, but they never actually practice even their local religion. They are born, grow, reproduce and die, always following the line of least effort. So with these cases we can affirm that most people do not have a soul.
To understand this it is necessary to consider the attributes of the soul, which are not the same as the physical body and which transcend it.
Attributes such as wisdom, memory, and love for all forms of existence.
What are "I" s?
It has been repeatedly said that we must remember that the System here called Gurdjieff-Ouspensky uses a specific language. The way to learn it is not to memorize it and repeat it to the letter, much less face it with our prejudices, conjectures and ideas from other sources. This does not get us anywhere.
What we call the true "I" is the manifestation of consciousness, something still uncertain and distant

Re: I need clarification. any thoughts?
I acknowledge there’s more to know, as someone who truly knows knows there’s always more to know. I stay diligent and read I just have a temper and I hate the deceit and evil around me it’s the reason ive developed a temper along with probably too much macho testosterone. I am a little quick to jump to the gun I mean I have here several times, but I’m willing to learn and know bc I know that there are men in this world who have tried to establish a monopoly on truths and controlling information, this sites freedom and being a center for learning is what struck me, I had found it years ago but it presented itself to me again and I think for good reason. The bad ppl in the world seem to have all the drive bc it’s easy to be promoted by the material and bad things than it is the good and once you’re content it’s easy to stagnate. I have drive and good Will in my heart and I’ve made these amends with god as I have off and on my entire life. But I think I’m gonna start listening to you guys a little more and seeing what interpretations and abilities to help the world I had stitch together

Re: I need clarification. any thoughts?
My personal opinion on the soul? Equal divinations of god, the one, it reacts to everyone different as we are all a different card punched with different holes. To put it simply and blandly, kinda like Pokémon in a way or naruto, the fundamental forces are all the same it just expresses through the material body in different ways or forms.

Re: I need clarification. any thoughts?
And I’m not as subject to confirmation bias as you may think I believe in trial and error and turning over every stone, how the studies of the esoteric begin is just philosophizing about the nature of forced very well beyond me. How am I ever supposed to build a house if I don’t start laying out the structure first? I’m man enough to admit when I’m wrong and adjust another’s philosophies to my own so I can grow. This is a trick that any politician will tell you they don’t possess. I implore people to guide me it’s why when I found this place I felt a sense of community bc I am “self” taught in everything I know today
