The Struggle to get out of one's mind

. The struggle to get out of the mind is such a paradox and our identification with it the cause of so much of our suffering.... To listen can be a key. We can pray to ourselves, and then by listening, hear our own answer. The outer man begins to yearn for the guidance and assurance of the inner man, but still tries to use the mind to solve the problems of the mind. To give up on our mind (as being us, or the end-all, be-all) and begin to listen to the void is the jumping off the cliff. We may find the inner man is us. The problems of the outer man will still have to be dealt with, but they will be seen for what they are. Our depressions, ups and downs, etc. are just the waxing and waning of the mind dimension as seen by the particular body/mind we identify with.

This Space is Timeless


Nice End of the Week

Space and Time are measurable

As the Divine, apart from space, is in all space, so also, apart from time, is it in all time. For nothing which is proper to nature can be predicated of the Divine, and space and time are proper to nature. Space in nature is measurable, and so is time. This is measured by days, weeks, months, years, and centuries; days are measured by hours; weeks and months by days; years by the four seasons; and centuries by years. Nature derives this measurement from the apparent revolution and annual motion of the sun of the world. But in the spiritual world it is different. The progressions of life in that world appear in like manner to be in time, for those there live with one another as men in the world live with one another; and this is not possible without the appearance of time. But time there is not divided into periods as in the world, for their sun is constantly in the east and is never moved away; for it is the Lord's Divine Love that appears to them as a sun. Wherefore they have no days, weeks, months, years, centuries, but in place of these there are states of life, by which a distinction is made which cannot be called, however, a distinction into periods, but into states. Consequently, the angels do not know what time is, and when it is mentioned they perceive in place of it state; and when state determines time, time is only an appearance. For joyfulness of state makes time seem short, and joylessness of state makes time seem long; from which it is evident that time in the spiritual world is nothing but quality of state.

Changes

There are indeed changes happening in your world which have greater ramifications. The weather is a sign of these changes. Mankind is being made aware of these changes through the pattern of your weather. The earth herself is being altered and man's conception of his home planet is about to change. There is naught to fear. All change is for a wider purpose. Be prepared to change self as these changes happen around you. All is in accord with Divine Law. The seasons are only one sign of the great shift which is to occur. Be prepared to accept whatever comes in each new day. The time for taking anything for granted is over. Each new moment has a different thing to offer you. Be prepared to accept each change as it occurs. There is nothing frightening or fearful in this - it is just different from what you may have anticipated in times past. You must realise that you cannot live in your past any more.

Only by going within and accepting what is in your now time will you find peace. Past and future will no longer have the hold over you that they once did. Live in the moment and be joy-filled. There is naught to fear. Be happy .
