Hi Uwe,
I'm sorry if I've upset you. I just wanted to say I do appreciate all your contributions, including the photography you've shared here in our recent past.
I definitely have an Ego with biases. Likes/Dislikes, and attitudes towards certain issues that I think are true.
I have a serious inquiry here that maybe I've not been able to articulate, and am often matching the feeling of resistance because I am subconsciously trying to understand.
I work with a boss who says if Trump wins she will close her store down. That's how volatile the situation is. At the same time, she has employees who will be voting Trump. And there are a many great narratives that people are emotionally reactive towards. It doesn't have to be the drama here in the West. But people are unified in their emotions towards socially constructed narratives. And with the internet to connect us, things seem all the more intense.
We don't have to talk politics to talk about this. But I am noticing that it is becoming extremely difficult to navigate the polarized world in the, "my views are right" and "your views are wrong" category.
I prefer non-violence. I also don't mean to offend others by thinking and believing in the things I do. I can let something go if I am disturbing the community too.
I just want to know how to navigate the storm, because we will all be faced with something similar. I think this is especially true for 2024-2026. The world drama will be knocking at our door, and may even bust it down.
In a way, stepping into our biases is a normal and healthy part of fulfilling our desires. I do think we will suffer as long as we fail to recognize God behind everything.
So with the quote I've provided above there are some exercises the gentleman recommends. I don't understand exercise 1, but I do resonate with exercise #2- I believe exercise 2 with my entire heart... And yet, how easy do we forget that which we hold most sacred is made manifest even in the people we find so disagreeable?
This barrier is a challenge, and one I hope to overcome. In a way, these spiritual pressures and adversities are great opportunities. But I apologize for the headaches and the lone tangents.
Wishing you and everyone here a blessed day.
Well just have to throw this one in the ring too..
" [10](https://www.lawofone.info/s/10).[14](https://www.lawofone.info/s/10#14) **Questioner:** For general development [of the] reader of this book, could you state some of the practices or ****exercises**** to perform to produce an acceleration toward the Law of One?
**Ra:** I am Ra.
****Exercise**** One. This is the most nearly centered and usable within your illusion complex. The moment contains love. That is the lesson/goal of this illusion or density. The ****exercise**** is to consciously seek that love in awareness and understanding distortions. The first attempt is the cornerstone. Upon this choosing rests the remainder of the life-experience of an entity. The second seeking of love within the moment begins the addition. The third seeking powers the second, the fourth powering or doubling the third. As with the previous type [of empowerment, there will be some loss of power due to flaws] within the seeking in the distortion of insincerity. However, the conscious statement of self to self of the desire to seek love is so central an act of will that, as before, the loss of power due to this friction is inconsequential.
****Exercise**** Two. The universe is one being. When a mind/body/spirit complex views another mind/body/spirit complex, see the Creator. This is an helpful ****exercise****.
****Exercise**** Three. Gaze within a mirror. See the Creator.
****Exercise**** Four. Gaze at the creation which lies about the mind/body/spirit complex of each entity. See the Creator.
The foundation or prerequisite of these ****exercises**** is a predilection towards what may be called meditation, contemplation, or prayer. With this attitude, these ****exercises**** can be processed. Without it, the data will not sink down into the roots of the tree of mind, thus enabling and ennobling the body and touching the spirit."
