Menschen erscheinen als arglos, da sie sich in extremer Weise ihrer Realität nicht bewusst und nicht gewahr sind. In diesem Zustand werden sie von programmierenden und illusorischen Glaubenssystemen in Gang gehalten. Gleichzeitig strahlt die Reinheit des GEISTES als ihre innere Schönheit hervor. FU Das All-sehende Auge, S. ?

Man muss bedenken, dass Liebe und Frieden für das Ego die größten Bedrohungen darstellen. Es verteidigt sich, indem es zu den tief verwurzelten Denkpositionen Zuflucht nimmt, die im Unbewussten verborgen liegen. Solche nicht liebenden Haltungen erwachsen aus dem immer noch vorhandenen biologischen auf das Überleben ausgerichteten Tiergehirn. Dieses tritt in der Kindheit zu Tage und wird durch den Druck der Eltern und der Gesellschaft in den Untergrund verbannt, was entsprechend den gut bekannten Egomechanismen von Verdrängung, Verleugnung, Unterdrückung, Reaktionsbildung, Projektion und Rationalisierung vor sich geht. Licht des Alls, S. 434

Releasing love sickness – 'Letting go resisting to a stack of unconscious emotions'

For 12 days I did nothing but stop resisting a certain belief system. Eventually, I was in the clear of the pain of loss. Oh yes, that was pain of loss of love. The loss of love, of course, recurs throughout many a lifetime, so it was a very major stack. I really didn’t know how I was going to survive it. But I just lay on the couch and let go, surrendering to it. It ran quite awhile and then suddenly I was free of it. Very suddenly! The agony of irrevocable, terrible loss of love was probably the worst, and it ran day after day after day. […] the stack is the collective accumulation of a certain energy over time, and the associated belief system with it. So, yes, the worst one that ever ran for me was the loss of love. Interview Healing and Recovery, health magazine Unified Health!, Matt Laughlin, Vol 5, # 14, pg. 20, Winter 2009

Discomfort of growth is inevitable.

[T]he courage to endure temporary discomfort of growth is required, and the mind tends to resist change as a matter of pride. Recovery from any disease process is dependent on willingness to explore new ways of looking at one's self and life, which includes the capacity to endure inner fears when belief systems are shaken. Power vs. Force, chapter 18 Wellness and the Disease Process, S. 220, Hay House edition, February 2002

Beliefs are the determinants of what one experiences. There are no external 'causes'. One discovers the secret payoffs that are obtained from unconscious secret projections. One's underlying programs can be discovered by simply writing down one's litany of grievances and woes and then merely turning them around into their opposites.
“People hate me” stems from one’s own inner hatreds. “People don’t care about me” stems from one’s narcissistic absorption with one’s happiness and gain instead of that of others. “I don’t get enough love” stems from not giving love to others. “People are rude to me” stems from lack of cordiality to others. “People are jealous of me” arises from inner jealousy of others. Thus, if we take responsibility for being the author of our world, we come close to its source where we can correct it. By being loving towards others, we discover that we are surrounded by love and lovingness. When we unreservedly support life without expecting gain, life supports us in return. When we abandon gain as a motive, life responds with unexpected generosity. When we perceive in this way, the miraculous begins to appear in the life of every dedicated spiritual aspirant. Harmony manifests as the unexpected discovery, the fortuitous coincidence, and the lucky break, and finally the realization occurs that these are the ripples coming back to oneself from the seat of consciousness. |. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 22

Only love has the power to overcome beliefs. At this point, historically, the seeker is counseled to "Throw away all the books and just be. Surrender all to God without reservation. Stop struggling and allow the realization of that which you already are." |. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 219

[...] to disassemble anger may require the willingness to surrender the pride that underlies that anger, which in turn depends on surrendering a desire. This means surrendering the fear that energized the desire, which in turn depends on surrendering a desire. This means surrendering the fear that energized the desire, which again is related to the undoing of imaginary loss, and so forth. Motivations are thus intertwined and mutually interactive, and operationally surrendering them leads to the next levels, which are comprised of dualities. The deeper layers, therefore, tend to surface one’s beliefs about God, programmed spiritual expectations, and belief systems. Spiritual work is therefore a matter of exploration that transcends mentalized concepts, such as those of cause and effect. Discovery of the Presence of God, S. 64

Alternative source by D. Hawkins:

"This downside of vulnerability to rhetoric [LoC 180] was also discussed at length in Truth vs. Falsehood in chapter 12."

An area of limitation that is often overlooked by spiritual students is that of the social programming of belief systems, which is the consequence of memes (presumptive stereotypes via brief slogans and repetitious ideas), as well as more vociferous propaganda and political distortion of the implications of facts. These promulgate via their cleverly concealed seduction to intellectual vanity. (See Richard Dawkins [LoC 190] (*1941) British zoologist, neoskeptical theoretical biologist, militant atheist, author on memetics, 1992; Don Beck, Ph.D., US American management consultant, complex systems strategist, co-author, Chris Cowan, M.A., US American consultant in business, speech communication, group dynamics and media, co-author, Spiral Dynamics, WileyBlackwell, 1996). Discovery of the Presence of God. Devotional Nonduality, S. 200

Like anyone else in society, the mind of the aspirant has also unwittingly been programmed. This often escapes notice unless highlighted by a Teacher. Many students adhere to a stereotype of what 'being spiritual' implies. Thus, there are often political/social/intellectual stereotyped beliefs that need to be investigated as naive programs. Discovery of the Presence of God. Devotional Nonduality, S. 200

We are subject only to what we hold in mind – consciously or unconsciously. When we re-own the source of our power and stop giving it away to the world, we find that the cause of gout is not in kidneys and liver. It is not in stress; it is not in uric acid levels or purine metabolism. It has to do with what we hold in mind. Healing and Recovery, chapter 2 Assisted Healing, S. 70

It is the mind’s belief systems that give power to that which subsequently manifests in the physical world. The physical body is an expression of what we have inherited plus what we have been holding in mind, either consciously or unconsciously. People will often say they do not remember holding such a thought; however, there is what Dr. Carl Jung called the ‘collective unconscious’ that holds the thought form. Unconsciously we buy into it and give energy to a negative belief system without ever remembering it or being consciously aware of it (e.g., via the media). Healing and Recovery, S. 433

The human mind believes that the commonality of a belief system is evidence of truth, and, of course, history is full of obvious examples of the contrary. (For example, see Charles Mackay (1814-1889) Scottish poet, journalist, song writer, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds. Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, first published 1841, Harriman House, Hampshire, UK, 26. September 2003) Dissolving the Ego, Realizing the Self. Contemplations from the Teachings of David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D., chapter 2 Nature of “Mind” S. 47, quote 2

Beliefs disappear in the face of the knowingness of truth. […] Truth needs no defense and therefore is not defensive; Truth has nothing to prove and is not vulnerable to being questioned for an answer. Dissolving the Ego, Realizing the Self.

I was exhilarated by the new realization that I could change the character of my life by changing my beliefs. I was instantly energized because I realized that there was a science-based path that would take me from my job as a perennial “victim” to my new position as “co-creator” of my destiny. Bruce H. Lipton, PhD. brucelipton.com (*1944) US American developmental new biologist, bestseller author, lecturer

The word "belief" is a difficult thing for me. I don't believe. I must have a reason for a certain hypothesis. Either I know a thing, and then I know it – I don't need to believe it. Carl Gustav Jung [LoC 540] (1875-1961) Swiss psychiatrist, psychoanalytist, depth psychologist

The impact of consciousness on cells

It's our beliefs that control our biology not our genes. New beliefs, new biology. Audio interview with Bruce Lipton, Ph.D., US American new cellular biologist, former associate professor, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine, presaged the field of epigenetics [mechanism by which nurture controls nature], author, MP3, presented by host Lynne McTaggart, British spokesperson on the science of spirituality and intention, bestseller author, Api.ning, September 2007

Public definitions of a situation (prophecies or predictions) become an integral part of the situation and thus affect subsequent developments. This is peculiar to human affairs. It is not found in the world of nature, untouched by human hands. Predictions of the return of Halley’s comet do not influence its orbit. But the rumored insolvency of Millingville’s bank did affect the actual outcome. The prophecy of collapse led to its own fulfillment. Robert K. Merton (1910-2003) US American sociologist, coined the term Self-fulfilling prophecy, Social Theory and Social Structure, pg. 477, Free Press, New York, 1968

I know what I believe. I will continue to articulate what I believe and what I believe – I believe what I believe is right. George W. Bush (*1943) 43rd US American president (2000-2008)

The totality of beliefs and sentiments common to the average members of a society forms a determinate system with a life of its own. It can be termed the collective or common consciousness. Emile Durkheim (1858-1917) French sociologist

Misconceptions of the Ego – D. Hawkins

Phenomena are either good or bad, right or wrong, just or unjust, fair or unfair.
The 'bad' deserve to be punished and the 'good' rewarded.
Things happen by accident or else they are the fault of somebody else.
The mind is capable of comprehending and recognizing truth from falsehood.
The world causes and determines one's existence.
Life is unfair because the innocent suffer while the wicked go unpunished.
People can be different than they are.
It is critical and necessary to be right.
It is critical and necessary to win.
Wrongs must be righted.
Righteousness must prevail.
Perceptions represent reality.

Summarized according to |. Reality and Subjectivity

Beliefs about God

The Master had quoted Aristotle:

"In the quest of truth, it would seem better and indeed necessary to give up what is dearest to us."

And he substituted the word "God" for "truth."
Later a disciple said to him,

"I am ready, in the quest for God, to give up anything: wealth, friends, family, country, life itself. What else can a person give up?"

The Master calmly replied,

"One's beliefs about God."

The disciple went away sad, for he clung to his convictions. He feared "ignorance" more than death.

Gone beyond belief

A religious belief […] is not a statement about Reality, but a hint,
a clue about something that is a mystery, beyond the grasp of human thought.
In short, a religious belief is only a finger pointing to the moon.
Some religious people never get beyond the study of the finger.
Others are engaged in sucking it.
Others yet use the finger to gouge their eyes out.
These are the bigots whom religion has made blind.
Rare indeed is the religionist who is sufficiently detached from the finger to see
what it is indicating— these are those who,
having gone beyond belief, are taken for blasphemers.

Anthony de Mello SJ (1931-1987) Indian Catholic Jesuit priest, psychotherapist, spiritual leader,
One Minute Nonsense, pg. 134, 1992
