Guest guest Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 That all makes sense to me! Many have said (most likely some of the people have not experienced the Awakening who say it): " You don't 'do' anything to become " Awake " . True in the sense that 'you' aren't directly responsible for the event. But, " you " do have to prepare " yourself " to receive it! I think we agree on all points, Chrism--- including Betty's way of expressing herself. She's rather melodramatic sometimes, but what the heck...all part of the Big Picture called The Universe. The more " Aware " I become....the more " Laid Back " I become. I really enjoy that! No worries, mate! Blessings! :) Stephen - Saturday, September 29, 2007 7:33 PM Awareness is a growing process Hello Stephen, I am only suggesting that there is more then just " one " way of experiencing this and I do also include the slow gradual development of awareness as another option that many take. It's just not the only option! What would have happened " if " we did anything different we cannot really rely on as that path wasn't taken. But you did have to be the person you were at that time. A person ready to experience what you experienced. So in that sense your entire life was a preparation for that development. In the stream of expressed consciousness there is gradual acquisition of awareness which will depend on ones own understanding of temporal dynamics or the understanding of time. I am only trying to place it with in the linear equation many use at this time as a measurement of progress. Betsy has a habit of writing in an absolutist format. " It is this way. " or " It must be that way " or " There is no other way " and I do not want people to feel locked in to a format because someone said so in an authoritative manner. She is having her experience and it is at the same time unique to her and common to others. Lots of folks get kriyas doesn't mean that you MUST get them to have an awakening. Or for an experience to be authentic. Same goes for the idea that surrender, or awakening, or awareness is done " this way " and if you don't do it that way then it isn't authentic. There are other ways to achieve the same goals. And we practice many of them here. - my take on it - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
