Is materialism of
lies and deceit and spirituality of truth and honesty? The more expressive of
materialism we become, the more of lies and deceit we become!!
Materialism is based
on how we feel. Spirituality is based on how we are. Unlike materialism,
spirituality is not based on bad or good, wrong and right, negative or
positive, spirituality is actually based on fewer motions, not more motions.
What is desire? A
desire to feel good all the time materialistically; the more we desire to feel
good, the more motion we are expressive of. Does it always feel good to
guide the child you adore through chastising them? Spirituality is not
about how good we feel but about what we constructively do. This is probably
why a lot of children are not chastised, guided, these days, we have become far
too materialistic.
This was in reply to,
"Spiritual vision is given to those who live in truth", by Phil Good.
Imagine a reality void
of materialistic desires, what then would determine what is and isn't negative
or positive? The more motion we express, the more separation we will experience
and the more we focus on feeling good. Seen as spirituality, especially Eastern
spirituality, is about expressing less motions through practices like
meditation and the realisation of oneness, expressing any kind of extreme
motion, especially to feel good, isn't of spirituality, it's
materialism.
Don't be tricked by materialistic
desires, materialistic desires often deceive us in thinking they are one thing
when they are another. Of course if it feels good, it must be good, this could
not be further from the truth.
I also love interacting
with people who have experienced actual life experiences instead of simply
expressing plagiarised life experiences. A life experience copied from books,
studies and workshops and recited as a life experience experienced by the
presenter. My interaction with Heather, who is a police officer, is always a
pleasurable experience for me. So much comes from me with this kind of
interaction.

Yes,
being a Police Officer, I have to support all information with evidence. This
has become standard for me and it is interesting to observe how it is not
standard for others.
I
have been caught out twice recently for posting information on FB that does not
have supporting evidence, lazy on my side and poor reporting on the
others.

Most
often it's the atheists that don't give supporting evidence to their claims,
this may seem strange but it's not.
I was once an atheist myself, this was until the rest of
my family and I experienced ghostly occurrences on numerous occasions.
Everyone, bar my dad, accepted what the experiences were in relation to. My dad
to this day is still in total denial of these occurrences. Hard line atheists,
as my dad, will never accept the obvious no matter what evidence was
forthcoming.
Giving evidence to their own claims is like accepting the
obvious they want to ignore at all cost. Anyone presenting anything that they
want to ignore as being factual in any sense, is usually defamed in some way,
within this, they are able to continue to ignore what they detest the most,
most often the obvious, the truth.
Giving evidence to claims to these people is like
accepting someone as an equal. As I have found out myself through various
interactions, the last thing these people want to do is look at you in respect
and as an equal. Psychologically, most often these people have no idea what
they are doing; they are oblivious to their own actions. Having worked in the
welfare arena twice over in my life, these kinds of behavioural patterns are
way too obvious.

Very
interesting observations. I guess you could say that by avoiding fact so that
one does not have to admit the truth, is really about fear.
We
know that every 'reality' and emotion we experience is created from within by
ourselves, so being intentionally blinkered to what is fact, is all about how
you feel about yourself

Indeed
Heather, fear. How many criminals work on the emotion fear, they often use this
emotion against people for some kind of gain on purpose. Are atheists in fear
of being wrong and living the fantasy? They often rebuke, in any way they can,
any science or other evidence that slightly hints at this, I have witnessed
this numerous times in my interactions with hard core atheists.
Do
excessively positive thinking people fear being negative? Considering a true
positive person sees very little negative in anything, what they call true
positive thinking today isn't true. Anything expressed in excess or in
an extreme way is not true to the program, it's a virus. Could you
imagine the existence of computer viruses without the existence of viruses with
our own programs within our minds? Computer viruses would not exist in our
computer systems unless they firstly existed in our minds, within our own minds
programs and programming.
There
is nothing wrong with anything from atheism to religion, science to
spirituality, black to white, dark to light, love to hate, etc. Only when
viruses are present within these programs do programs become corrupt and
destructive. How many people fear the emotion hate? It's all based on fear and
what is fear based on? Attachments and the inability to let go of these
conditions of attachments. To many people, the condition of love is not to hate
in a huge way!!
Do
I hate, especially the people in my life who have abused me physically and
mentally? What would have occurred if a lot of people loved Nazism or didn't
hate Nazism? The thought isn't very constructive. Hate has to be a part of our
program in our present situation. Of course we have created this reality that
we need to hate at times even though hate is more of a bug than a virus. Hate
being a glitch in the system program rather than a virus. Hate within itself is
not destructive; it's the program that hate is bugged with that is. All
excessive motions indicate a virus, for example, religious fanaticism/extremism
is a prime example of a virus to the program of religion.
I
don't express hate within my own program but I am aware. I am simply aware
avoid of as many labels as I can be. Mentioning viruses and bugs by the way are
not labels, they are simply an awareness of a difference between having
conditions and not having conditions. Is the condition of being aware not
experiencing and expressing viruses? No, as being truly aware takes one to be
expressive of fewer conditions, not expressive or more conditions. A
pure state of awareness simply has no conditions, the more conditions our
programs are expressive of, the less aware we become.
Sorry
for this Heather, I love expressing myself to people who have had actual life
experiences. Too often do I come across people who plagiarise their
experiences. Study and read from literature and then express this as a life
experience. Actually, I might write up our interaction here in a post on my
blog if that is alright with you.

Matthew,
really interesting words that I am getting my head around.
I understand
totally when you say that the more conditioned we are, the less aware we are.
Fear undoubtedly sits at the root of conditioning, whether it is new or generational.
Perhaps an Atheist feels uncomfortable at the thought of bearing the
consequence of their actions over a lifetime.
I see your analogy of viruses and bugs
as that, a tool for illustrating your view, not conditioning. Ultimately we
both express the same point, that the good and bad that occur in life are a
reflection of our state of awareness.
Of course you can use this interaction,
always a pleasure Matthew
