Science of Ascension

[Kiko]

So basically the initiate starts identifying 'shapes in clouds', ascribing desired meaning to events for the mere sake of promoting a favored intuitive conception. In an infinite universe, just because something can be interpreted allegorically, does not mean that aspect has useful application towards one's purpose.

It a process akin to the psychology student that diagnosis themselves with various pathological conditions they read about in their coursework. Looking back, we just roll our eyes and smile. That is, until one gets dangerously trapped in confusion and their own 'twilight world'. Although there is always balancing aid available, as we see from the constant barrage of disingenuous posts here, it's blatantly ignored by the 'new-age-meme' inspired, zealous fanatic.

Thank you for those thoughts Zenmaster. For some reason I have always been drawn into other people's world views, which I think is part of being sensitive to their energies/emotions. I have found myself looking back and smiling when I see how much I have 'fallen into'. Learning to not do so has been part of my own change by setting some boundaries in the state of 'individuality' in which we live in this level of being.

I like reading what people say in these forums because there is usually a kind slap in the face when someone becomes over-zealous! While I like to participate, I have refrained a lot by balancing my own desire to be part of a discussion with thoughts such as, "Do I need to say anything, really? Will I be contributing anything which could be of use to someone?"

I find myself here not as starting out in something, but having lived and remembered so much that Ra spoke of through the group, so it feels like, "Aha; these are my people" if that makes sense? Everything we do as individuals in terms of our spiritual practices, rituals, meditations and so on seem to be just our own cake icing. I think that those who seem to think they know it all, as well as those who think they know nothing, all come to understanding of themselves as time goes by. At least it looks that way to me over the years. It is all good in the end, yes?
