What is spirit and what is ego?



Well that is the question, to be or not to be. Russell in Candle of Vision (p5-7) describes the ego as a mean and miserable boy, and I can't get the thought out of my mind:

A Brief Theory of Getting High



I have contemplated what it means to get “high” for some time. Here is my conclusion: getting high involves becoming possessed with an intentity – an entity with purpose/intelligence that populates hyperspace, the world of the mind.

We Are All Zero



I am sick of these new-ager types that go around spouting "we are all one" as we are “just another drop in the ocean.” I'd say “just another drip in the ocean”. What is the great seduction of self-destruction, that we may all become part of a hive, at best, or a super obedient cell in an organ, at worst? Are we so feeble that only by joining into a giant greater organism that we have any worth? But the main reason that I hate the “we are all one” crap is because they are off by the infinite number of intervals between 0 and 1. In fact, WE ARE ALL ZERO.

Adam and Eve and the Original Lie


The story of Adam and Eve is the original lie which produces original guilt. It leads to the adoption of religious rules in the place of man's direct connection to the creative lifeforce and is fundamentally anti-trees, anti-nature, and anti-people. The Garden of Eden story is written as a promotional device by those that benefit from it. Like the communist manifesto, or the Agenda 21 plan, it is designed to enslave and intimidate, promote cruelty and violence, while tricking followers into believing that they are doing the greatest good and tempting them to thinking that they are better than others.

Christos has nothing to do with Jesus



While sitting in a quiet moment I had a fearful experience. A feeling welled up inside and then without hearing any words I knew that "I am Christos". The hallucination was very clear, not Jesus but Christos. The experience was not simply a non-auditory, non-visual hallucination, for it came with deep feelings for which words cannot do justice, but sustaining, dynamic, and immensely intelligent love is the best I can conjure. However wonderful the feelings were, a little later I found my mind debating and deciding that this experience was upsetting and fearful. I identified with society's condemnation of crazies who preach about Jesus being within and I dreaded being turned into some type of wild-eyed preacher you encounter in main streets of cities promising eternal salvation.
