A few thoughts from our E-Book
Not just how but why?
When we put how things really are into words, we are then able to realise what a hilarious and ridiculous bunch of potential creator minds we are: Rather like bright and intelligent teenagers who grimly cling to the familiar toys and familiar ways of thinking of their infancy. It is time for God’s little children to move on and to fix their gaze and their concentration on their forthcoming adulthood. Let’s put some of our silliness into words. We all exist on a planet. The planet is about eight thousand miles diameter and is a vast, extremely hot ball of molten rock that wobbles its way around and around a star. The star is in fact an ongoing nuclear explosion that is fuelled by gradually using up the mass of the star. While it is still able to the gravity field of the reducing mass of the star also holds the same explosion in check in an uneasy balance, so there’s not much security to be found there. Where the molten surface of the planet meets the sub-zero coldness of space, the molten rock cools, congeals and hardens to form a comparatively thin crust just a few miles thick all over the planet. The molten rock in the depths of the planet is never still because its heat causes it to rise and flow to reveal itself by cracking the brittle crust into plates of rock that move and grind against, under or over each other on the surface. It also releases its latent power by volcanic and seismic activity.
A great deal of time had to pass before some oceans and some habitable continents thinly covered this barren, unstable shifting surface. Above this a thin layer of breathable air, and above that, the vacuum of space, let’s find a comparison. First we suspend on a string a steel ball of twelve inches diameter, and then we point the spout of a boiling kettle near the ball so that steam condenses on the shiny, cold surface. The ball represents planet Earth and the coat of condensation represents the deepest ocean on Earth. On a beautiful summer day when we wander amid the marvels of nature it is easy to forget that the Ecosphere is just a thin, life-supporting layer that separates vacuum from molten magma. The hilarious thing is that we do forget because we are so preoccupied by our desperate search for security and permanence on a planet of a Solar system in a physical universe not designed to offer security and permanence. Because the planet is physically so much larger than us, and apparently has a much longer physical existence than us, what the planet really consists of has become irrelevant to our daily lives.
For potential creator seeds the insecurity of our physical existence could be regarded as another proof that we should abandon our search for physical security. Maybe it is time to open our minds to the possibilities of existence not dependent on physical matter. Obviously we still have to seek the essentials needed to physically exist. Whilst we seek we must always remind ourselves that we can only eat one meal at a time, and sleep in one bed at a time. We can only live under one roof at a time, and drive one car at a time. In this way gentl

y but firmly we gradually learn to separate our needs from our desires. Because for many people the line between needs and desires is blurred, the desires of the strong few always outweigh the needs of the many that believe they lack the strength of the few. This is what we mean by living in illusion. The few, driven by their fear of insecurity, take far more than they will ever need from others. Then the direction of their fear alters and is now focused on keeping what they have taken even to the point of surrounding themselves with strangers employed to guard what they have taken. Driven by fear of insecurity their desperate and ruthless search for security has simply just increased their fears, and also increased the chance that someone will steal what they have taken. Those very same fears they will take with them to their graves. When they are reborn into future physical lives they will bring those same fears with them again and again until finally they face and conquer them.
Now let us look at the other extreme. A tramp faces each day with nothing in his pocket. He is always on the move and so he has no home and no physical security. He doesn’t cling to possessions or relationships because he knows those possessions and relationships are transient and often are a form of captivity. What he has instead is his freedom. He asks for very little and expects nothing. Just like the guru in his cave the tramp doesn’t know where his next meal will come from, he only knows that usually it will be there when he needs it. What does the tramp do with his freedom, what does freedom give him? It gives him time to think, time to understand self, time to observe, time to build his own set of values and live by them regardless of anyone else, time to enjoy and fully live in his “Now”. We don’t suggest that our readers take up the lifestyle of a tramp, but we do believe there is no such thing as coincidence.
Previous to his birth maybe he chose that lifestyle to teach a very important lesson to everyone he would meet in that future life. Now what could a scruffy old tramp teach to all of us respectable consumer/producers? He can teach us by his example. For rich or for poor the only certainty in our lives is the guaranteed uncertainty of the future we face during those physical lives. The tramp has chosen his lifestyle. In choosing that lifestyle he has also chosen to trust instead of fear the future. As time passes his faith and trust in the future is proved time and time again. He hasn’t got what we’ve got, but we haven’t got what he has got either. What we can do is learn from him about choosing a positive attitude to life. From him we can learn that the choice that traps us is made unconsciously, influenced by our negativity and fears. Also from him we can learn that the choice that releases us is to be made consciously and is influenced by our positive and clear thinking.
