He Who Has Ears Let Him Hear.

Nobody really understands

It is twenty seventeen and we in the United States have elected our forty fifth president, a New York business man named Donald J. Trump. Mr. Trump did not win the popular vote but he did win the electoral vote which is not uncommon but what is uncommon is his stance on political matters. You see he may have the best intentions in the sense of being patriotic to the united state and I hope with everything in me he is, but he take's a hard line stance on issues, issues of which he has very little political training in. most believe that with the right people in your staff the lack of political knowledge can be offset but only time will tell.

But one thing is certain, sometimes it is not wise to always go around waiving a big stick, after all isn't that what politics is all about diplomacy before aggression. At the rate we are moving now there is sure to be some catastrophic event that will shake the planet, or destroy it. On my home I heard that “dooms day clock” that scientist have used in the “cold war” day has take a thirty second movement forward and it's not not just the nuclear situation, climate change, technology and biotechnology advances and worry about their use's, all these thing could get out of control at anytime without the right control's.

So as I listened to the radio while the three commentator's eluded to the question of, when the time comes, do you want to live forever or when it's over it's over and wow! Did that open the door for a different train of thought. First, the young lady said, “my grandmother is ninety six and all she doe's is sit in her chair, eat ice cream, all her friends are gone and she is all alone”.yeah when it's time to go I just want to go. Then one guys say, Well I think that there is life after death so yeah I chose infinity, I want to live forever for my kids sake but the girl tells him well then you will see them grow old and die and how would that make you feel? He couldn't answer her. The third guy was trying to make some sensible answer but all he came up with was that he wasn't sure about life after death but if there was what would it be like? We used to say, nobody has ever come back to tell us what over there. But in these days and times of documentation of near death experiences, science, investigations maybe, just maybe there is.

I think they were missing the point just looking at it from a two dimension stand point, life, then death but there are many beliefs that say when we expire in this corporeal sense our soul's and spirit live on. Personally I think that it is not if we will continue to exist but where we will exist. In a place that may not be pleasant or some place that can be compared to paradise, who knows? But down deep inside I think most people feel this. After all religion must serve some other purpose than just tradition, more than another form of control for men over other men. Think of a blind person. They don't have the use of a major sense that is needed to function but yet thru study and training they learn to use their remaing senses to compensate for their loss. Just because you can't see it doe's not mean it doesn't exist.

I think life is a test to see where we will end up in eternity and also to cause us to grow and reveal our true natures to our self. There is to much balance and cemetery in creation for all this to an accident, it just don't make sense, somebody's got to be at the wheel, there has to be some entity at the center. But I know many will argue the opposite and that's OK because in the end “all that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts”, As a man thinketh James Allen. Also I found this passage in the King James bible that says in “Proverbs 15;24 The way of life winds upward for the wise, that he may turn away from hell below.

In closing let me leave you with this thought from James Allen, “men are anxious to improve their circumstances but unwilling to improve themselves”.

Improving your Emotional Health

Focus on your mental and emotional side to gain self improvement
Not everyone believes this but the emotional and mental aspects of a person, when combined, leads to better self improvement.
Emotions love to dominate our actions and reactions, even though we do not want it to happen sometimes. The society often see emotions as a sign of weakness, so people are used to putting them aside and focusing on the rational aspects more and more.
No matter how strict and logical you may be, you will always feel. One way or another, someone or something will get through you.
Positive emotions are a lifelong goal for many of us concerned about emotional health and self improvement. What is more important; the amount of money you made during your life or the times you laughed out of sheer joy?
People tend to put their positive emotions behind their negative feelings. This is one of the biggest problems that people come across during their lives.
There is no clear way to ignore a negative experience and try to replace it with a positive one. Life just does not work that way.
For example, when you were a child, if your goldfish dies, you would be heartbroken. Your parents will probably buy you another goldfish but the sorrow is still there.
Things get even more complex when you become an adult. A fight with your spouse the night before will affect your entire day. You will go to work angry, tired, and your mind will wander. On the way home from work you will not notice the sun shining and you would not be tempted to stop at a roadside stand to pick up some fresh fruits and vegetables.
All this because that one negative thought has contaminated the way you perceive the reality around you.
In this moment you will realize finding a safe place to relax your mind will do wonders for your emotional and mental improvement.
That place is relatively easy to find. It can be an actual place or an imaginary location. The best idea is to totally lose yourself in it.
Let us say you have a problem on your mind and it just would not go away. Go bowling. Do not know how? Just give it a shot.
Get caught up in the game. Your mind will drift away from the negative thoughts that dominated your last hours or days and start processing a whole new kind of information.
A safe haven can take many forms. It can be a song, a movie, even a person or animal. The main thing is allow yourself to get completely involved with this new activity.
You might still get flashes of the problem every now and then. Ignore it and get even more absorbed in what you are doing.
When the bowling game, the song, or the movie ends you will abruptly return to reality. You will probably want to retreat back to the safe place. Do not do it.
The safe place exists only as a helping hand, not as a solution to your life's problems, may it be a small or big. It serves only as an escape route.
You will return from your safe zone with an increased energy level. You will feel better about yourself and gain more confidence. You will see that any issue can be resolved. Improve
This is how a small escape from a harsh reality can increase your emotional and mental health. Try to do this often and you are on your way to better self improvement.

ACQUIRE POWER THROUGH SELF DEVELOPMENT.

Romans 14:11King James Version (KJV)

¹¹ For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

King James Version (KJV)


It is the natural right of every human being to be happy to escape all the miseries of life. Happiness is the normal condition, as natural as the landscapes and the seasons. It is unnatural to suffer and it is only because of our ignorance that we do suffer. Happiness is the product of wisdom. To attain perfect wisdom, to comprehend fully the purpose of life, to realize completely the relationship of human beings to each other, is to put an end to all suffering, to escape every ill and evil that afflicts us. Perfect wisdom is unshadowed joy.

Why do we suffer in life? Because in the scheme of nature we are being forced forward in evolution and we lack the spiritual illumination that alone can light the way and enable us to move safely among the obstacles that lie before us. Usually we do not even see or suspect the presence of trouble until it suddenly leaps upon us like a concealed tiger. One day our family circle is complete and happy. A week later death has come and gone and joy is replaced with agony. Today we have a friend. Tomorrow he will be an enemy and we do not know why. A little while ago we had wealth and all material luxuries. There was a sudden change and now we have only poverty and misery and yet we seek in vain for a reason why this should be. There was a time when we had health and strength; but they have both departed and no trace of a reason appears. Aside from these greater tragedies of life innumerable things of lesser consequence continually bring to us little miseries and minor heartaches. We most earnestly desire to avoid them but we never see them until they strike us, until in the darkness of our ignorance we blunder upon them. The thing we lack is the spiritual illumination that will enable us to look far and wide, finding the hidden causes of human suffering and revealing the method by which they may be avoided; and if we can but reach illumination the evolutionary journey can be made both comfortably and swiftly. It is as though we must pass through a long, dark room filled with furniture promiscuously scattered about. In the darkness our progress would be slow and painful and our bruises many. But if we could press a button that would turn on the electric light we could then make the same journey quickly and with perfect safety and comfort.

The old method of education was to store the mind with as many facts, or supposed facts, as could be accumulated and to give a certain exterior polish to the personality. The theory was that when a man was born he was a completed human being and that all that could be done for him was to load him up with information that would be used with more or less skill, according to the native ability he happened to be born with. The theosophical idea is that the physical man, and all that constitutes his life in the physical world, is but a very partial expression of the self; that in the ego of each there is practically unlimited power and wisdom; that these may be brought through into expression in the physical world as the physical body and its invisible counterparts, which together constitute the complex vehicle of the ego's manifestation, are evolved and adapted to the purpose; and that in exact proportion that conscious effort is given to such self-development will spiritual illumination be achieved and wisdom attained. Thus the light that leads to happiness is kindled from within and the evolutionary journey that all are making may be robbed of its suffering.

Why does death bring misery? Chiefly because it separates us from those we love. The only other reason why death brings grief or fear is  because we do not understand it and comprehend the part it plays in human evolution.  But the moment our ignorance gives way to comprehension such fear vanishes and a serene happiness takes its place.

Why do we have enemies from whose words or acts we suffer? Because in our limited physical consciousness we do not perceive the unity of all life and realize that our wrong thinking and doing must react upon us through other people a situation from which there is no possible escape except through ceasing to think evil and then patiently awaiting the time when the causes we have already generated are fully exhausted. When spiritual illumination comes, and we no longer stumble in the night of ignorance, the last enemy will disappear and we shall make no more forever.

Why do people suffer from poverty and disease? Only because of our blundering ignorance that makes their existence possible for us, and because we do not comprehend their meaning and their lessons, nor know the attitude to assume toward them. Had we but the wisdom to understand why they come to people, why they are necessary factors in their evolution, they would trouble us no longer. When nature's lesson is fully learned these mute teachers will vanish.

And so it is with all forms of suffering we experience. They are at once reactions from our ignorant blunderings and instructors that point out the better way. When we have comprehended the lessons they teach they are no longer necessary and disappear. It is not by the outward  acquirement of facts that men become wise and great. It is by developing the soul from within until it illuminates the brain with that flood of light called genius.
