Dear list,
Since it's relatively quiet, I thought I'd repost the Understandings from
list members. The more recent ones are at the end. I'll add any new ones
that arrive!
Love, Hillary

Everything is as it should be, and always has been
e=MC2
Pleasure and Pain are both just sensation and therefore the same
Joy is universal except that not everyone is aware of it
I AM THAT I AM
It is enough simply to BE.
***
1) There is a form of bliss that doesn't belong to senses and mind.
2) I know nothing.
3)There are still body-feelings remaining and the process has to be
repeated at a much higher energy-level. This time, it will be hard so do your
homework.
4)There is "something" which is "my" essence and the essence of everything,
it has no limitation (and almost instantly, it became "experience").
5) What could be "done" is "done"; the fire will burn out by itself.
***
There be emerging in me
awareness a sense that, while me does see you an' me, we two
are of one "Feel."
***
All is One
Everybody has the same Self
"me" is just a little bundle of functions, doesn't exist as an entity
Consciousness (with a big "C," aka God) "generates" itself through
consciousness expansion as we experience it on the material plane
(sorry, can't describe it better than this -- I don't understand it!)
Creation is the body, the embodiment, of God
Enlightenment is natural and inevitable as God draws God into God
***
awe of knowing that ALL is as it should be.
this is the only way it *could* be; like a complex
three dimensional puzzle where if you take out one piece, no matter
which, the whole lot collapses.
***
There is only ONE self and we are IT.
***
1. There is some truth in everything but no group, person, or entity has it
all correct (as if correct even has any meaning)-
1a - Simon says - beware of those who claim to have any understanding -
1b - Every 'holy book' will slip in passages with no Simon says preceding it
-
2. 'Heaven' or a state of Bliss would be a boring place to spend an eternity
or even a whole vacation.
3. There are 'spiritual' forces/energies but no God as used by most
traditions-
4. Light only exists in the context of Dark
5. If there was no deterrence - we could not grow in spirit
6. There is an I and an i and a me and a Me - we are part of the whole but
still distinct - merge with the universe but maintain your self -
7. Every blessing is a curse and every curse a blessing - or we grow more by
our difficulties and mistakes and trials and tribulations then by our bliss
and joy
8. It is never enough to just be - the human soul seeks to discover to
create to do - the path of inaction is the dilemma that Arjuna faced on the
battlefield -
9. However, when nothing is done nothing is left undone - the action flows
from a higher self a non-questioning self - if (IFF)in that state then it is
enough to just be - an active flowing just being -

God is Love
It's the Energy of the Universe!
Don't forget to remember the Present
***
read all the writing on your inner walls
give some attention to the course of the world and its people, but not
much
be very, very funky
let it rip
outdo yourself
now
on purpose
because you like it
be not afraid
cuz you have got all the love of the universe inside of you
explore art and music in full
be good
***
"what remains when
the ego goes?". Awareness!!!.
***
All is truth. It just depends on your perception.
Everything we understand is pointless. Everything we don't understand
but know anyway provides true insight.
What we think of as nothing is something. What we think of as something
is nothing. If we stop thinking, we can begin to transcend the dueling
nature of duality.
Everything that we put into words makes the meaning dense. Stuff of
spirit is so rapid, it's hard to grasp even a sliver of its clarity in
the physical dimension.
We've created our lives with our thoughts. If we want our lives to
change, we need to change our thinking.
Life can be frustrating because we can never completely know why things
happen the way they do. Life would be boring if we could completely know why
things happen the way they do. Stop thinking about it applies here too.
"I" really doesn't grasp anything. It keeps us busy with the endless
chatter, worries and doubt. Thank you for your comments, "I." Now let melive
my life.
***
I also believe we are all crystals, and that God is the light we reflect, as
through our different facets.
My latest "understanding" came last night, and (for me) it was a biggie:
God is a hierarchy.
A while back, I remember sharing with all of you when I came to understand
that "I know nothing". I love that one.
***
...From that vibe nothing is random, it all follows patterns too complex and
too simple for the rational mind to follow. It is an "understanding", as the
thread has been, lately.
Didn't respond to that thread coz I didn't know where to begin.. I am so
used to odd info incoming. Writing to someone the other day, I suddenly
understood why the Mayans did mock
***
I got an understanding a while back that I couldn't have a great faith
without also experiencing a great doubt. Now I look on these periods
of faith-doubt as nothing less than the pulsation of the All itself. I
also suspect sometimes that huge movement happens during the dry times
and that we are protected by our numbness lest our frail little bodies
fly apart in feeling intensity! Doubt can belong to the ego, but doubt
can also reflect surrender and faith
***
"The students should
know that if one has to ever choose between a teacher and Truth, one should
always choose the Truth ..."
***
I had a guide once whose response to me protesting to me having free will
was..."yes you have free will and occasionally you're even silly enough to
TRY to use it."
***
One that stands out was a clear white light ( I know that sounds
contradictory) standing very peacefully between the two - so peaceful as to
be "nothingness". I asked what it was and it answered Love. I knew this was
Love of the Highest order.
