It may be the verbal fashion, but you are dealing here with an old soul and
to folks like me, fashion sucks! And is always damned stupid at the least,
it was even when I was young enough and stupid enough to follow it.
"Reality ... shows me," if you deconstruct it, implies the speaker has
perfect preception of reality and never makes mistakes. I've spent some time
around enlightened people, using the standard definition of the term as
related to Kundalini, both walking around and floating around. Yes their
knowledge was vast, their Inner Vision beyond belief to observe, but they
made mistakes. In both perception and interpretation of what turned out to
be the reality. Maybe it was because they were, or had been, human and were
the created, not the Creator.
How about a bit of intellectual honesty and saying something like, "Based on
my observations..." or "In my opinion..." something that actually is a
factual statement and not extremely egocentric.
Yes this might have been a stronger reaction than most people might have to
a bit of new age fluff language. But language is the tool we use to
communicate our ideas. If our words have no meaning our ideas have no
meaning. If our ideas have no meaning we are doomed, we will be without
vision or a means to regain one. That is what hell is.

Very true. Awareness is also the hardest power for most of us to ever "get"
in all the meanings of that word.

See that explains why I care about language, we "lower entities" are like
that.
If you are facing a couple of crackheads with guns who are pissed because
your wallet only had a five dollar bill in it, believe me fear is NOT a lie.
Fear is not usually the most productive response in a situation but it is
valid and very very real.
One of the great benefits of fear is it creates caution. That saves lives,
it keeps foolishness to a much lower level that it otherwise would be. May
not be as ideal as wisdom would be for that task but if everyone had wisdom
we wouldn't be living in this world we have today would we?
>Sacrifice is a thing of negative, sacrifice comes from the Christian
>experience of God, spiritually, you only have balance.
"Sacrifice is a thing of negative" a truly interesting concept. Other than
Ayn Rand I don't think I've ever heard someone say anything like that
before.
The statement is so all encompassing. A mother's love is full of sacrifice,
never knew that was a negative (or particularly Christian). A father who
puts money into a college fund for his kids instead of buying that new rod
or those golf clubs he yearns for is sacrificing, didn't know that was a
negative either. Or a soldier who dies trying to pull a wounded buddy off
the battlefield is a bad thing. An MD who works a couple of days a week for
cash and most of the time works in a free clinic for the poor at no charge
for his work.. I certainly never would have thought of that as a bad thing.
Since I admire all of those bad/negative things... does that mean I'm going
over to the dark side??? Or could caring about others, being willing to give
of yourself, reaching out to people, all of those things that take time away
from the "fun things" we could be doing actually be a good thing. Could
Mother Theresa be a good person, not one ruled by the negative? I have my
answer, Reality didn't call and give it to me, plain old common sense
provided it.
Namaste,
Joe
