Self-realisation

Post by waechter418 »

Reflections & Projections (R/P) are basic operations of the mind.

There are three principal R/P modes – the alternating, whose manifestations complement each other – the contrary, where they contrast each other, and the dualistic R/P, whose manifestations appear separate.
The alternating R/P is typical for the Orient, whereas the contrary R/P has been dominating the Egyptian, Mesopotamian and Hellenic cultures and became the foundation of the R/P mode of Dualism which characterizes the Occident.
(Orient & Occident represent here R/P systems as well as cerebral & global hemispheres)

Every R/P system has particular Self concepts, realization ways & methods.

Know Thy Self is the premise of all.

In the Occident „Know Thy Self“ has been inscribed (ca.450 BC) on the temple wall of Apollo at Delphi, and made famous by Socrates who said“Knowledge is inherent in man, not outside. Wisdom is to recollect".

In the Orient “Know Thy Self” was taken up at around the same time by Tao, Hindu and Buddhist thinkers, who consequently investigated ever since the mind and developed inumerable methods and techniques to further its Self-realisation.

According to Buddhist teachings, the world is an aggregate of particles. The particles are in perpetual motion – they manifest instantaneous and contact the senses as flashes of energy – mind interprets the reactions of the senses.
(Buddhists consider mind as 6th sense.)

Self realization was, Self, actualized at and with the understanding and knowing of who and what 'I' am, exactly, Which obviously came with the proper Accurate and Correct answer to the question, 'Who am 'I'?'

Knowing they Self is, really, far more simple and easier than just about all of you human beings, in the days when this is written, realize.

Find yourself to be the centre of your own Universe’
Explore the Nature and Powers of your own Being.
This includes everything which is, or can be for you: and you must accept everything exactly as it is in itself, as one of the factors which go to make up your True Self. This True Self thus ultimately includes all things so ever: its discovery is Initiation (the travelling inwards) and as its Nature is to move continually, it must be understood not as static, but as dynamic, not as a Noun but as a Verb.

Selfrealisaton is to awaken to the reality of the present moment

The past has no power to stop you from being present now

There is One only Universe.

'I' am the One Being, the One Universe, or as some of 'you' human beings phrase 'it', the Only and only True self, God, is the One Being at the centre of My own Universe.

Through the Mind, 'Me', Everything is being created in the eternal NOW.
