    When I first experienced metaphysical energy and needed answers as to why my life had suddenly become contrary to all the world says life is....I first found Gurdjieffe in that long journey of enquiry I have been on....

    I had become self-reflective...or self-observational...growth and change I never understood at that time....smiles...

    I have had the pleasure of reading many of the Greats[Giants]. Gurdjieffe I have not, yet.
    Thank you.

    Coincidentally as well, all "the Greats" point to the same Q.M. "No-thing".
    Block-heads simply can't fathom IT. Lol ROTFLMAO! (Their "I"s keep getting in their way!)

    "The nature of awareness
    is freedom from identification.

    If you are aware of anger,
    then you are not identified with anger.

    If you are aware of a thought,
    you are not identified with the thought.

    The thought arises, the anger arises
    but it has nothing to do with you.


    Identification
    is always happening
    at an unconscious level.

    You are walking to work
    and unconsciously
    identification is there.
    'My name is Jon, I am a dentist,
    I am on Main st. where I turn left
    to go to my office...'

    Always defining
    'This is me.'
    'This is who I am;
    this is where I am;
    this is what I am doing;
    this is where I am going;
    this is where I have been.'

    So instead of practicing awareness
    from the perspective of identity,
    you could try consciously
    not being identified with anything.

    You allow the thoughts, body and sensations
    to be as they are
    but you consciously
    disidentify with them.

    'This body is not mine,
    this name is not mine,
    these thoughts are not mine,
    this emotion is not mine,
    this belief is not mine.'

    Not as words to repeat
    but to consciously
    not identify with anything at all.

    If you choose to not
    have an identity
    then awareness is automatic.

    You will experience life
    in a completely different way.

    By consciously
    letting go of all identity,
    you exist as energy,
    as formless consciousness

    completely free of ego
    & all the conflict and separateness
    that goes with it.


    NOW --- I'm off to work, riding my bike with no handle bars ...lol

    Re: The Best Yet: "Theory of Everything."

    Who are blockheads Mel?? I am seeing alot of "I" responces here in this thread. I have met many people over the years whose lives just pass along and they are completely unaware of what has been transpiring over the recent past...I would never call them blockheads...that is to be insensitive to another person's life....
    Did I misinterpret you?? Could you explain??

    Regards Mikal
    If I see a train coming and your on the track...if I don't tell you, it will be a pity for you and a shame on me....

    Past and Future
    (what has been VS what will be)

    Where does one end and the other begin?
