Sorry Rob, I do not see the isomorphicism between you statement and

Mr. Murphys.

For the quote I gave this group, " In that quote " , which was from his

book on reincarnation, the whole book and that quote was on

his " ideas " on the validity and non-validity of reincarnation.

 

He chose to believe that reincarnation is not valid.

Good point, and I did answer it above.

Well, maybe so. I did take it a different way. Mr. Murphy was talking

from his point of view as if it is true. And that point of view seems

to be a very proactive self-responsibility way of thinking from the

position of a congruence between the three minds, and NOT from the

point of view of from the consious mind. It does show up very

strongly in all of his works that I've read and studied (among other

authors) over the past many decades.

Yes, one of the books that Jose (back in 1980) had us Silva Mind

Control Trainers study was (among other titles) " The Power of Your

Subconscious Mind " by Murphy.

 

What I do find very interesting is how so many very knowledgeable

people, i.e., Joseph Murphy, Neville, and Harold Sherman " have the

opinion " that reincarnation is just not so...

 

....but other very knowledgeable thinkers have the opposite viewpoint,

i.e., Edgar Cayce, Jose Silva, and Donna Eden do think (believe) that

reincarnation is one of the verifiable concepts most important to

mankind.

 

So I read all those books, do all their drills, and then come to my

own understandings in my own way based upon my own experiences, my

own thoughts, backed up by any systematic verification process that I

deem valid.

 

Thank you Rob for a great conversation.

 

Sincerely,
