Thinking Together

Flame of Being Alive, Alert, Awake?

Restored from the Empower Network archive (2011–2017), lightly edited to meet our current advertising standards. Views are the original author’s.

(San Jose, California)-The writer would like to know why do you all come? You know with what intension and purpose do you come to read or listen to these accounts? What imaginary and superstitious concepts that one has and if the writer may be so bold and suggest that you may come with those ideas and formulas, the writer is afraid that you might be disappointed? This is because what we are talking about is totally different from a lecture<(to inform, instruct and guide), please we must be very clear on that part and this is not a written lecture of any kind.

There is no intension what so ever on the part of the writer to guide you. Furthermore not to help<(forgive me for using that word) you, or to inform you about something that you would like to talk about, some theoretical, superstition, imaginary, a fixation as it were. But we are going to deliberate together; the word deliberate has a very deep meaning, which means to weigh together, take council together, to nourish each other, not physically but psychologically, intellectually and penetrate as deeply as possible into ones own consciousness and functions, way of thinking, living.

This is not a theoretical meeting talking about things that should be or that’s not been but together you and the writer taking council together, weighing things together. Please this in not just a lot of words the writer really means what he is saying whether you like it or not we are going to take council together, weight things together not that I weigh and then tell you about it. But rather together you and the writer take council together, please? Together we are investigating, questioning, doubting.

The idea and the fact are two different things. Fact is one thing you looking at the computer reading this account that is a fact, the fact is what we are going to discus not the idea/abstraction of the fact. Is the write being clear, do you follow? This is a serious talk, not just an exchange of words. So from the begging we must be very clear that his is not a lecture and we are not talking about theories of any kind? We will not be talking about humankind’s long 2 ½ million years of evolution but what we are today, right now and what we have become and what is our future. Not that of humankind but the future of all things to come.

To be clear we are not setting up a new society or cult, ashram, group or sect of any king, the writer is not your guru or mentor and he is not looking for followers but we are going to deliberate together, taking council together we nourish each other both intellectually, non-verbally and psychologically. This is not romantic, superstitious, imaginary, we are together you are not just reading/listening to what the writer is saying you are actually part taking, sharing, weighing and taking council together. Are we clear on this?

According to the scientist and archaeologist and all the rest we have been on this earth for 2 million years or more and here we are. What are we; the writer is not suggesting what we are? Ask your self this question please, what are we? We are about to open up the deep caves and underlining causes, will you journey together with the writer? The reality of life that’s behind the cause. This means that we are going to go into this world, which is each and every one of us together throughout this account/talk. Are you willing or are you frighten, hiding behind all the absurd theories and psychological innuendoes, all the things that humankind has put together as they call it religion.

The existing society, which is the degeneration that is gradually going on, pollution from all the cities that is spoiling the air and not lets forget the human corruptions, this is what we are caught up in. What do you think, what are your points to all of this? You see the write is asking what has gone wrong with us or is this natural cause? Are you with me, do you really want to talk about all this nonsense? You all must read about this in the newspapers and magazines or even see it on the television?

Lets us begin, please bare in mind that this is not a written lecture you have not come to view to the writers account/talks. “YOU HAVE COME TO VIEW YOUR SELF HOWEVER COMPLICATED, SUPERFICIAL AND DEEP THAT SELF IS!” we will go into it all.

The first thing is why are we the way we are; we have been on this earth for a long period of time why haven’t we changed. This is ordinary English not professional English so you understand the question, yes? We have lived on this earth for a very very long time which is called evolution, and during that evolution of experience and knowledge, thinking and all the things that humankind has put together, including our superstitions, gods, his/her various empires, so when you come down to the actual fact what has happened to each one of us? Don’t you the viewers want to know? Is it that we are too frightened to know, which on is it, do you know?

The fact is that we are the rest of the world, watch it, the daily boredom, all the pettiness of ones life, struggles, all the pain, anxiety and sorrow, death, hoping for something in the future, the negligence, all the contradictions, carelessness and indifference; this is shared by all humankind. But you know this right? Every single person goes through this, your priest, guru, minister, boss, mother, sister, brother, daughter, wife, husband, friends everybody go through this how ever civilized or not. Do you doubt that fact that everyone no matter where you go goes through this? And this is what makes up the contents of our consciousness.

So are we working together on this, investigating together, weighing the facts together on this? Or is the writer guiding you and helping you? Because he is not either of those, please be assured of one “FACT” I don’t want to help you! I am not your guide or your helper! Nevertheless you are now asking what are you doing here? Is it probably out of curiosity, what you have heard, read a few lines before or you have been told go read what the fellow is talking about you will find out? Please be clear the write is not helping or guiding you, he want! Because AL throughout the ages you are being help, guided by the savior, gurus, books, lecture, propaganda and the whole list. They are to whiling to help you! We are always trotting off to some temple or guru asking for help, this is called prayer. Furthermore we are being help and guided politically, religiously, psychiatrically and at the end of it all we are what we are.

The writer is saying please take this seriously he is not helping or guiding you! This is on the contrary, together we are walking the same path not knowing but alert an open to finding out! Baring this in mind the whole time that you and the writer is sharing and nourishing each other inwardly psychologically while investigating this whole thing of sorrow, suffering, fear, all the problems not just your problems and then my problems but the whole thing as one problem.

Your anxiety and uncertainties are shared by every human being on earth. Your consciousness is the consciousness of every human being on earth, you might not agree but investigate and find out intellectually, logically not emotionally then you are lost. Logically, sanely look at, not pressing your opinion but look at it. Your consciousness is shared by all of humankind, so you are humankind. Sharing and investigating together, then what should we do? Do you follow the question? Seeing all of this how humanity has been divided into religions, nations, sects; my priest is better than your priest. This division, separation exists all over the world.

Nationalities are the major cause of wars. In spite of what the write is saying you will go on with your nationalities, isn’t this so? When one realizes this fact that your entire humanity not physically but inwardly psychologically, then one invariably has to ask what am I to do? Don’t wait for the write to tell you!
