Dealing with people and life
I’ve been arguing and fighting with online communities and people for months now. I lost myself in argument and the Mental Plane activity. Debates each day, accomplishing nothing except the loss of my peace. I now realize that these posts, comments and rude remarks that appear in my social media feed are the result of…

Discourse 11 – Notes
“When people blast the central ideas of other groups, they often don’t know the ideas of their own groups.” This is so true. We can see it in criticisms of religious figures towards other religions. Fear based religion is brought up as a talking point. Fear based religion is based on controlling the members, “if…

Discourse 12
Last chapter and it really added value to my daily work. I have struggled with personalities that I find difficult to take. Strong, arrogant, pushy personalities. I’ve tried to not engage with online users, who likely aren’t even human (but bots), but instead I engage. As I read discourse 12 I read the following, “He…

Low Hanging Hook
I had a dream the other night… during the day I was working through Lesson 10 of “The Easy Way Discourses.” This lesson is about causality. The lesson’s exercise was to chant “MANA” and ask the Mahanta for guidance on an illness, etc. The idea being to help the student understand causality. I did the…

Discourse 10: I’ve been looking at the shadows…
Lately, my social media feed has been catering to everything I’m not. It’s a feed of Christian nationalism. A feed of opinions that trigger me, that frustrate me. I find that sometimes I log in to an alt account and begin arguing with people online. Despite the motto to communicate when: it’s necessary, true and…

He who detaches himself from the worldly peace of life shall achieve inner peace and shall be worthy of entering into the kingdom…

When the World get’s you down, read this
The wise never give thought for the dead, nor for the living, in sentimental emotions. That which belongs to matter, heat and cold, pain and pleasure, and the values of beauty and ugliness, is impermanent. They come and they go, and nothing shall halt them, for these are the elements of the Kal, the negative…

Attachment and the Shariyat Ki Sugmad
One day I was struggling with my views on people who are attached to this world. This was likely something bothering me, due to my own attachments. There are times that the Shariyat opens to exactly the right passage. In this case I sat in my meditation space and opened the Shariyat and it randomly…

The Things of This World
In the Christian Bible, Jesus answers Pilate’s question on if he considers himself a king, saying: “…my Kingdom is not of this world…” It is important to note that Jesus denounces the things of this world throughout his teachings. He admonishes the rich and powerful, while praising the poor. He instructs not to store treasure…

A Confession of Anger
This morning I was attending a Light and Sound service, online. During the HU chant, a recent event came to mind. Something I need to deal with and confess. It relates to how I lost my temper last night. The situation was that I ordered a pizza through UberEats. I noticed the delivery wasn’t updating.…
