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. ?, 2005

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.

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.

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.

Spiritual path vs. customary values, expectations, and programming

Another source of hesitation when doing spiritual work occurs because there seems to be a transitory conflict between customary social attitudes and the work of spiritual evolution. Out of habit, there is claim to sets of beliefs and values which derive from customary values, expectations, and programming. These are believed to be of value to oneself and society, and there may be some reluctance to relinquish them. For example, one may feel guilt over abandoning cherished, mechanistic, or religious convictions or good-person-programming held to be ideals. To move through these sources of conflict, it is useful to remember that the spiritual journey requires the relinquishing of all beliefs and attitudes in order to create space for "Reality to shine forth". The Eye of the I From Which Nothing is Hidden, S. 107, 2001

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. I. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 22, 2003

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." I. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 219, 2003

Be passionate for God, not for belief systems. That is the only real decision that has to be made and can be applied to any and all situations. The question is always whether to be at the effect of the world or aligned with the Truth of God instead. The search for enlightenment is different from that of seeking worldly success. I. Reality and Subjectivity, chapter 20 (cal. 994.1), S. 355, 2003

Certain types of thinking styles, belief systems, and memes (catchy phrases) are endemic to certain societies and subcultures that have been dominated by myths over the centuries. Transcending Levels of Consciousness. The Stairway to Enlightenment, chapter 20 Passing Through the Gates, S. 345, 2006

[...] 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, 2007

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

Ego: Edging God Out

When the ego takes over its sole purpose is to edge God out.
The ego is no more than a collection of ideas that we carry around.
1. I am what I have.
2. I am what I do.
3. I am what other people think of me.
4. I am separate from everybody else.
5. I am separate from what is missing in my life.
6. I am separate from God.

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

Postionalities tendentially unquestioned and taken for granted

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

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.

One Minute Nonsense, pg. 134, 1992
