That means I should stop believing in thoughts that are not supported by facts. That will have to include the thoughts that I am God and there is an afterlife. I think [this is] these are the most damaging thoughts of all. From here it extended to HOTS and the Flight Path.
I can contain these thoughts if I simply think that I am part of a greater intelligence that endures for eternity. This is a bit different form the original thoughts on God and the afterlife in a sense that there is no religious connotation to these ideas. I was too deep into religion. There are a lot of false beliefs associated with religion. On the contrary if I only think in terms of spiritual terms or even within the scope of my consciousness, the idea is very simple; there is a force governing this universe and this force is perpetual.
Therefore I isolate myself from the religious concept of God and the afterlife and merely accept that I am an ongoing matter moving in motion on a certain trajectory. I should be free from any form of religious connotation. I am simply an object going on a motion.
From here on, all I need to do is rely on my intuition and move towards the direction of my Path oblivious of the thinking of the masses. As stated by Musashi, the answer is within. Thus in order to be true to myself I must keep my thoughts simple so that I can pass through the pinhole of Mushin No Shin to see things as they actually are. For example I now know that all religions are false. They talked as if they know what they are talking about but in reality the believers are stacking one lie over another based on past beliefs.
To be truly free is to become an independent thinker. I should not be influenced by the thoughts of others namely when comes to my relationship with the Infinite Intelligence; the Force that governs my Path. I have to be my own teacher. It is given that I went crazy in my course of uncovering this realization. However once I realized that I cannot rely on anybody else to tell me what lies ahead, I have to remain autonomous.
In this relationship with the Force, there is no formal structure. In a sense the Force doesn't require a master subservient relationship. It is a no hierarchy structure. Just a body in motion going on a flow following the Path. There are many layers of understanding towards this relationship. To be able to reach the core understanding one has to forgo all past limiting beliefs and become a Nothing. Materialism creates a layer to this understanding. So are religious beliefs. To understand the Force, one has to surrender oneself to the Path.
There is only one Path although there are many tributaries leading to it. The way to the Path is best described by Aiki + Do directly translates to the Energy and the Way. This means the way to the Path is though the manifestation of the mind and body through actions not words. Hence instead of a sitting meditation, I propagate active meditation namely running. This is because running creates neuroplasticity and neurogenesis. Also through running the body produces a myriad of neurotransmitters to accentuate our transmission link to the Infinite Intelligence.
This Infinite Intelligence is not a thing as in a being or an entity. It is the Force that governs the Flow within the Path. Others had referred to the Flow as the Cosmic Habit Force in the past. For the purpose of simplicity let's just refer to these X, Y and Z planes as the Force, the Flow and the Path. Obviously the traditional concept of God is not applicable here. We are part of XYZ and they are part of us.
We cannot manage XYZ. Just like the river we can only ride on it and maneuver using a set of oars or by directing sail against the wind. The river itself has a shape (Path), the body of water (Force) and a direction (Flow). Depending on our individual creations, we all will determine how is our relationship to XYZ.
In my case I govern my relationship by shrinking my parameters into the 12 meters square; my CCC. Within it is Al Araf 7:7 and Sailbad the Sinner. These are my crew and ship going through this voyage through XYZ. Along with it are my watches. The watches create the Mental Model for me to move forward. This is only applicable to me. My paradigm serves my purpose. Others may have their own personal methods. I am not concern with the other variations. This is a big river and there are many vessels. There are others who might just make do with tire tubes without any oar, metaphorically speaking.
As for me, I can only speak on behalf of my Tetrahedron. I tried to be magnanimous and incorporate everybody but the price is I was judged as being crazy. So rather than worry about the judgement of others toward me, I just mind my own business. To each is his own Path.
The crew and the ship are all metaphors. I don't actually know how Al Araf 7:7 and Sailbad the Sinner look like. However to help me with my visualization, I use models:
All these constitute my belief system that I am a subset of XYZ although I am not XYZ. In another word I am within a boat on a river but I am not the river itself.
So who am I? Where am I going? What is my purpose?
I have to say at this point of time I am just one of the many traveling on this Path. I am going home. My purpose then is to make sure that my Tetrahedron, my crew and I arrive at our destination in the best possible means.
