Feelings versus Logic

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

We are part of the reality that is happening out there, part of the whole.
Our disconnection is illusory – I am not sure if it’s because of the dicstinctions made by the eye-sense, that see strict borderline between our body and environment, or if the disconnection started much earlier in the brain decoding mechanism, or somewhere else.
Anyway, we have believed (in the end, the brain is behind any belief) we are disconnected from the Whole.
Let’s imagine again that we are not separated, that we are interconnected with everything and it was never different – let’s back it up with your favorite theory explaining this interconnection, for example the particle theory about each atom having vast space around and when you zoom close enough, you can’t see any borders between your body and your environment – makes quite sense, right?
Now, you are really connected with Everything – you are not your body avatar only – the Avatar is there only as your lens, as the point of reference from which you observe the Oneness.
How do you get informations from the World?
Senses. Is there anything else then them (I think there’s not, but make me correct in the comments)?
Senses are all there is for you, to get the knowledge about the world.
Does it make logic to listen these senses and to obey them, follow them, because they are some higher logic, higher messages from the Whole reality?
Can you make better decisions made by thinking, by brain, by logic?
What is more restrained – decisions based on senses or decisions based on pure logical thinking of the brain?
Can your brain think up anything different than it already knows from the past?
Isn’t the brain only repeating the past models of thinking, past theories, old stories, old worries?
What about senses? Can they lie? Can they manipulate you?
If you feel joy, is there any false in it?
Is there any reason you shouldn’t be really happy when you feel so? Even when everyone else is not so – maybe at the funeral?
Is there any logic in not following your feelings, your inspirations?
Why should you start using your logic to judge if the inspiration is good, if it’s worth of pursuing, if it will bring you enough of this or that, if it’s childish, if it’s embarrassing etc.?
Can you imagine living totally spontaneously – following your inspirations, feelings, senses – following your intuition – the path of Heart?
It takes some time, to re-learn listening to the senses, to switch from brain consciousness to the heart consciousness – it’s a regular learning process – to de-learn the old habit of “using too much logic”.
But finally, you’ll start to become very spontaneous, not restrained by the pure rational thinking repeating the old patterns – each situation is brand new, totally new variables are presented at each moment, and brain cannot understand it at all – only senses can tell you immediately what is happening around and giving you hints how to behave, how to deal with each situation in every moment.
Does it make sense?

It does to me.. but I am aware I am suggesting here extreme switching from the brain to the heart – I am aware about the advantages of the middle paths – no extremes are good. But I am still not sure what to think about this extreme. I think, that this is what Osho and other total-consciousness teachers do propagate – at least this is how I understand their tips for total-spontaneity. But this lifestyle would be really scary, when bravely applied – you would stop planning, stop thinking about consequences, about problems, barriers – you would just do what you feel at each moment, without fear.
Can it be so easy? Or am I compensating my long term tendency to use too much of the brain logic in my life, by clinging to the opposite extreme?
I am not sure, but I am experimenting with it now – living by the inspiration, intuition of each moment.
As many times in my life – I was hugely inspired by Steve Pavlina with this test.

And sorry for all the typos – I don’t feel like I want to repair them – anyway, I write it for myself at the first place (ok, maybe even for the 2 loyal readers).

The Illuminati are not bad at all

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

For the balancing sake, here is one interesting view on the matter of Illuminati agenda.
It’s always good to think about all possible sides of the conflict/reality.

It seems that it’s all relative, depends from what point you look at it. In the end, it’s the duality game and you have the power to stop the right/wrong judging in your head. Hmm, but how to behave then? Is Love some outside force of these dualities, that is “good” to hold on? Some primordial non-duality force, coming from Absolute? Or maybe the Love is the Absolute itself, just a different name? Or can the Love be put on the yin/yang scale? And why to choose Love, if there is no right/wrong? :)

Maybe Castaneda has a very good answers:

“Look at every path closely and deliberately, then ask ourselves this crucial question: Does this path have a heart? If it does, then the path is good. If it doesn’t, it is of no use.”

““Only as a warrior can one withstand the path of knowledge. A warrior cannot complain or regret anything. His life is an endless challenge, and challenges cannot possibly be good or bad. Challenges are simply challenges.””

Anyway, back to my initial idea, to post you this comment about Illuminati agenda:

Did it ever occur to you that *they* don’t want to harm you at all – that they want you to be free and you refuse to be free, so they are spurring you on as harshly as you need??

Think about it: You didn’t even think of throwing off the yoke of slavery until your water supply was poisoned, your skies were chemtrailed, your children were forcibly taken from you and trafficked, you were threatened being taken to concentration camps and either with being made into a chipped zombie or with death by the most horrific means.

Are you? quite sure “they” are the bad guys?
