In a discussion of the Grand Incursion & Ultimate Conquest, one man said:
“The greatest obstacle to be overcome is the habits of the body,”
to be countered by a second man:
“Not so: the strongest opposition is the mechanicalness of the mind,”
and a third voice injected:
”Nay: the principle barrier to our goal is the weakness of the spirit.”
“The body!”
“The mind!”
“The spirit!’
“The body!”
“The mind!”
“The spirit!”

In his pondering of his long involvement in The Great Undertaking, one man mused:
“I have finally come to realize that the supreme need in all of this
is to correctly identify the enemy.”
Few men have the desire for the Grand Goal,
fewer still, ever the recognition of what appears to stand between it & them.

       The place twix mercury & reflection is a secret space scarce seen by man.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

One day when the King had stepped out of the room,
The Court Jester asked the Royal Psychic:
“Can you really tell the future?’ and he replied:
“Yeah, but I can’t tell it much.” and for a brief moment they both wondered if
they had mistakenly gotten each other’s intended job.
 
 








People who simply want to change their behavior
have a goal fit only for a child.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

On one world, men’s minds are directly linked with all other men’s minds.

















A son asked his father:
“What is the difference between The King and The Prime Minister?”
“The King is just a public figure head and the Prime Minister actually runs the state.”
“How can that be when no one has ever heard The Prime Minister say anything?"
and the father shrugged: “Weird state.”
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

One man’s update of a classic blues song:
“If it wasn’t fer bad luck –
I’d never knowed there’s such a thing as luck at all.”

On the great cosmic questionnaire, when men are asked what they regret,
most write in: “What’s available?”
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Having a body, you have a boat;
having a mind, you are part of an ocean which keeps everyone else’s boat afloat,
and they, yours.
 
 







Enemies you cannot touch are an illusion:
in man’s second reality all enemies are illusions.


















If you wait long enough for a train that never arrives
you will forget that it does not.

The RealRevolutionist not only runs off alone to meet the train,
but in fact discovers he must manufacture his own –
and then forget about that.

  Post script: Those who bad-mouth the mind without a full inquiry
   are simply cheap skates, hoping to hitch a free ride.
   (Hint: Free rides go no where.
  Double hint: All rides go no where;
    the universe closed at 5 pm while you were distracted & didn’t notice.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Those who need help in doing nothing more than changing their behavior
need a whole lot more than mere “help”.
The few struggling to change their state of consciousness are in truth
the only humans seeking a goal that has any objective individual reality.
People want to stop overeating and lose weight
so that others will find them more attractive;
a man trying to awaken from consciousness’ dream
has no one involved in his motivation but himself;
if he needs any help --  he has but one person to turn to:
the person apparently not there now: his unsleeping self.

  Definition: A true fool: A man seeking TheSecret who asks for help,
                                          and for too long assumes that such is possible.

        And the Royal Psychic mused: “Humm.......I should have seen that coming.”














Thoughts: Earth minds’ way of telling reality: “Stay in your own yard.”

On better worlds, men’s minds are directly connected to life with no intermediate links.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

You have to feel sorry for ordinary people when the most memorable experience they say they ever have is becoming a parent, or facing death:
neither one requiring individual effort;
to dispatch your own self and then give birth to a new version thereof --
                                  now there is an experience worthy of a life.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A son asked a father:
“What is the difference between the King and the Prime Minister?”
“The King is just a public figure head and The Prime Minister actually runs the state.”
“Ah!” thought the lad to himself:
“Same as how thoughts make a man feel that he is in control,
when the truth lies else where.”

   Everyone’s King talks; their Prime Minister acts,
   and a Court is not complete without them both.
   (Although the Jester added that it is best when everyone has their right job,
   and understands their individual responsibilities..........................what a kidder.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

To KnowTheSeceret is to understand religion as cannot all the priests in the world;
and to understand art as cannot all of the painters;
and to understand politics as cannot all of the world’s leaders,
and literature as cannot all the writers who ever lived combined.

Question: Do you think that this is telling you something about a person who KnowsTheSecret, or is it clearly revealing something --  right before your eyes
about something else entirely?

    (Hint: Something else.)
 
 







If it wasn’t for dreamers repelling the intellectual output of other sleepers,
most men would have no intellectual life.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Silence expands time.














A man looked at his body and said:
“It may not be much --  but it’s all I’ve got.”
He tried to look at his mind and said:
“It may not be much --  but it’s all I’ve got.”

Question: How can a man be correct and yet be half wrong? –
                  and in the only half that makes any difference?
 
 

      KnowingTheSecret: The brain’s forced expansion into everyone’s yard.
 
 
 
 
 
 

understanding shrinks space.

.....and this email just in from a reader: "Sometimes I don't get the connections in your writings."
                                                                "Sir: the connections are not in the writings  --  they're in your brain."
