i wish i came to this thread earlier.
As per hidden hand's suggestion I've started reading the book of chuang tzu.
i was really curious to read about what vbaba had to say.
Sometimes the way you guys ask questions can be drilling, and it made me think of a part of the book I just passed. The way questions are asked can be ignorant of how it might make the other person feel, as opposed to the pure logical content. We forget when dealing with other selves, that they won't necessarily react the way we would as if we are asking ourselves the very same questions.
Coming from a place of channeling is tough, there is fear involved in the subconscious, where they would be prone to thinking something like.... Is any of the information coming from me true? As channelers themselves can and are baffled as to where the information comes from, thru who.. I feel the tone of the questions here probably pushed this vbaba person to feel threatened.
I want to share this excerpt of profound intensity from the book of chuang tzu
"Do you know how virtue is ruined, or where knowledge comes from? Virtue is ruined by game and knowledge comes from argument. Struggling for fame, people destroy each other, and knowledge is used for argument. Both of them are used for evil and you should have nothing to do with them. You may have great virtue and unquestionable sincerity. You may be kind hearted and without interest in fame, but if you do not understand how people feel and think, you will do harm, not good. Such people try to force the people to be benevolent, to act properly and impose laws, and as a result they end up being hated precisely because they care about others. This is known as hurting others. Those who hurt will themseles be hurt and this is likely to be what will happen to you!"
'Imagine, he could be the sort of king who values the good and hates the bad, so what point would there be in you trying to make him change his ways? Keep your advice for yourself. Kings and princes tend to assume they are right and will do al they can to win. You will find your eyes dazzled, your colour changing and your mouth trying to fight fire with fire, or water with water. This is to pile more on to more. Once you do this, you will be unable to argue with him again. Your words will be of no avail, for he will not believe them. As a result, you will be killed by a dictator like this."
i realize how much this mirrors me as well... something i've decided to take on learning in light of .. my own events and these events, and just the past 6 months.
