DH AD

I saw that all pain and suffering arises solely from the ego and not from God. This was a truth that I silently communicated to the minds of my patients.When I intuited this mental block in another mute catatonic who had not spoken in many years, through my mind, I said to him, “You’re blaming God for what your ego has done to you.” He then jumped off the floor and began to talk, much to the shock of the nurse who witnessed the incident.

The millions of calibrations that confirmed this discovery further disclosed a stratification of levels of power in human affairs, revealing a remarkable distinction between power and force and their respective qualities. This, in turn, led to a comprehensive reinterpretation of human behavior in order to identify the invisible energy fields that control it. The calibrated scale was found to coincide with sublevels of the hierarchy of the perennial philosophy; correlations with emotional and intellectual phenomena in sociology, clinical psychology, and traditional spirituality immediately suggested themselves.

"There are many ways of going forward, but only one way of standing still." ###################### GAPISM MAYA-ANITYA X STAND BACKISM H ADVTA Why do we suffer? Our suffering is due to false identification with the temporary body. We are not these bodies. We are eternal spirit souls fully blissful in nature.  The body, on the other hand, is bound for suffering under the influence of the laws of material nature.  So as soon as we foolishly think, "I am this body," we cast ourselves into a suffering situation that is incompatible with our actual nature and identity. When the eternal, all-knowing, and all-blissful living being casts himself into temporality, ignorance, and misery the resultant situation is bound to be intolerably dissatisfying. ######################## ######################### When we train ourselves by constant practice to stop verbalizing, the brain can experience things as they are. By silencing the mind, we can experience real peace. —Bhante Henepola Gunaratana, “Do Thoughts Ever Stop?” PRE LANGG STILLNESS #######################
