It is very selfish to demand people behave in a particular way, that is at the center of the worst egoism.>> What's interesting is how perverted/inverted this inderstanding gets since in man's world of "EGO" everything IS and HAS to be "relative" - ie. conditional. For example, my "I wouldn't be me" response can just as easily be interpreted as the worst sort of "egoism" simply by the use of this back-door judgemental sleight of hand that could have others saying/thinking "if he doesn't care then he's a self-centered egoist" etc. And this is to be expected, for the world-mind-power of EGO only understands others "relative to" and "conditional upon" the INDIVIDUAL derrogating and defining him/herself on the basis of "someting else" etc. The "I AM FREE" INDIVIDUAL does not exist in Man's World. For Man's World is all about disintermediating, scrambling and tripping up the divine reason/logic which we were blessed with at birth. The power of "the external" takes precedence over the divine rights, reason, liberty, energy and LOVE of the real truth behind each INDIVIDUAL which can only rest deep inside where there's a divine conjunction of will, reason and understanding between our minds, hearts and souls. BTW, there's a divine numerical series which substantiates, confirms and prove all of this mathematically with ZERO/NO loose cannon faith, smoke, fire, ritual, dogma or theology. What's so fascinating about this is that each individual gets to learn more and more about things that "already exist." "Everything" Beverly said, "everything is connected to everything else. From the beginning of days to the end of days - and beyond the end of days to the mind of the Creator - everything is connected to everything else. Stanton, Barbara, Martha and all of you are about to learn - and the Stones - are of the same fabric, and the fabric is sewn as an act of Love. Love for you, Love for us, Love for us all. It's that simple. Why look for complicated answers when the simple ones are best?" The Messiah Stones, Irving Benig p. 189 (advanced readers edition) October 1995. There's the number ONE (1) followed by that number "89" again which is the prime number for the numerical corepsondence for the name of society in heaven responsible for all this: ANGLION (1573965) Hold a rock or a stone in your hand someday while standing in a public park. The meaning of that stone is embedded in the eye of the beholder's imagination. Either it's a "happy stone" or it's something entirely different. It's simply the power of negative vs. positive imagination, thought and association at work. I found a beautiful big black round/smooth rock on Thursday while looking at this fantastic 25 acre property in the western suburbs of Chicago with a real estate agent and a developer. The rock exactly matched as a conjunction with a vision that turned into a story recently about a school-year bully who pretends to hold or really holds a rock in his hand as a way of taunting/getting a negative reaction out of others. If others imagine it's a rock when it isn't then the bully's righteusly negative judgment kicks in and the fact of whether he has a rock or not gets overridden by the other individuals act of judgement, etc. Then the bully kicks butt or does whatever he loves to do - ie. making others miserable, etc. I call this rock a "Happy Rock" for it's an example of nature at work smoothing rough edges of what used to be hard, etc. And what get's smoothed over in this manner ends up as sand which may end up on a beach somewhere for perhaps a child to play with/in, etc. The existance of sand is proof that cold, hard, rough truth in the form of rocks CAN exist in another more forgiving "form" for us to understand even as we remain open, receptive and playful. The water is a metaphor for spirit, energy and Love. Rocks, sand and land are simply the "form" which spirit fills into and combines with to make ONE meaningful conjunction between our will - ie. in the form o ACTION/LOVE - with our understanding and reason =- ie. in the form of truth. Emanuel Swedenborg provided an incredibly well documented dispensation for all this understanding/truth in his mission for this Divine cause directly from our Lord Jesus Christ Himself. I'd highly recommend that others read the same. Peace. Light! ONE!! GO!!
