Beautiful quote my friend! I'm sorry I haven't made contact with you because you are in my prayers today.

Interesting discussion... Understanding personal reality vs. reality. I've witnessed someone so in their head, clouded by lustful desires, that they weren't aware of their behavior or how they've made others feel. I can only say, at this time, this is my karma as I am guilty of the same.


I doubt that either of us expects perfection out of our friendships. But we both know the importance of supporting and helping one another in our highest aspirations. We both have a clear view of what is most important in this life. Even though we sometimes plod along and make mistakes in our behaviors we know now that we have the support of the Masters and the soul soldiers that they have drawn too us. Our confidence is now in the faith that as long as it takes we are on the right journey now.... till the end.

“I don't think it's wrong to pursue desires, but to hold them carefully in a contemplative mind and with a developed discernment find healthy and creative solutions. “


Slowing the mind down, relaxing the senses and practicing concentration might aid the development of our discernment and provide us the insight to our own derangements.


Thanks Eric...your advice here is helpful!

Death causes fear in spiritually ignorant human beings, but to the wise it is a transition to a higher state - - a promotion to higher grades of life. Those who learn in this life to live by the Spirit, and are unattached to the body, quickly gained after death their soul-freedom from the bondage of oxygen, food and water. Mortals should learn to live more my inner energy, and strive to be unattached to the body.

His words really inspire me to brave the elements - whether cold 🥶 or hot 🥵 and curb and re-direct some of my desires.

Souls in that region do not encase themselves in bundles of  bones with fleshly covers. They carry no frail frames that break when they collide with other crude solids.  There is no war in the astral land between solids, oceans, lightning, disease, and man’s body. There are no accidents, for all things live in peace and mutual helpfulness rather than antagonism. All forms of vibration are in harmony. All forces live in peace and conscious helpfulness.  The souls, the rays on which they tread, the orange rays they drink and eat - - are all living. Souls live in mutual cognizance and cooperation, breathing not oxygen, but the joy of the spirit. There they live as long as they want to live, playing like waves on the infinite ocean of light, and there they melt into one another by celestial love, as the ocean of light.


The mortal form,  enslaved by oxygen and sunlight, gorged with material food, would faint in a delicate airless atmosphere of the divine supernal region. Darkness and gross lights equally lose their relative dualities in the darkless dark - - the lightless but all - revealing soul light - - of that sphere. So yogis practice life - force control and the breathless state to be able to live in these airless regions of living light, even while in the body.

Hmmm some motivation there from Paramahansa Yogananda to keep up our practice.

i'd like to free myself from the shackles of a corrupted mind. yogananda is right to call us sense-slaves and, at times, it can feel like a curse.

Everything has its natural course Eric... the natural world has its pains and set backs and for this reason prods us on. I know... easy to say but not so easy to do. Both have to develop patience and appreciation for every little progress-by grace-that is given to us. You and I seem to have many simultaneous lessons... hmmm interesting...as though reflecting some of the same frustrations for some important recognition?

Perhaps what may be more helpful to you as it has been to myself is the idea that mistakes and setbacks maybe just the medication the guru doctor gives us to learn something else... compassion and understanding for the slow evolution of those around us. And... just what others have gone thru waiting patiently for us to ‘get it.’

Anyhow, just some ideas 💡 that your comment above solicited from the vaults of pea mind here…ha ha.

P.S. Dear God; be more tempting than temptation itself.
