Time is completely meaningless to friends and lovers.
35 years can pass and nothing will change between them.
Yet every second seems like an eternity to one missing the other.
Thus is the riddle of Time. It is completely subjective.

An Angry God
In a garden of Mind, an angry thought is a weapon.
It cuts through the ideas of life, love, beauty, joy...
It demolishes the mind resident in the garden.
To heal, mind must close itself to hide from the pain.
It no longer sees Mind and no longer dwells in the garden of Thought and Ideas.
It is blind, deaf and dumb. It thinks itself alone.
Only the body remains and mind believes the body's sights and senses.
Mind will heal and see once more. It will see the reflection of Mind.
Through the chaos of this experience, it will learn to control Anger and Fear.
It will learn that love is what is real. All that is not love is false.
Living in a reflection, mind has wrestled with Mind and become afraid.
Even Light, Love and Truth can be frightening.
The little mind fears its own shadow when it stands in the Light.
Trembling, it taunts that which it no longer sees with its closed vision.
The Mind is a garden of Thoughts and Ideas, which sustains the little minds of men.
Far vaster than the visible universe, Mind is everywhere and everything is in it. Only the blind cannot see it.
You are it.
It cuts through the ideas of life, love, beauty, joy...

Chaos
Is there a hidden order within disorder, or an annoying disorder within order?
Hidden behind the folds of matter, within the vibration of time and space, the reverberation of order and disorder animates the universe.
All this is the reflection of Thought. The Word.
There is only Mind and mind. Some call it God.
The Word hardens into form, and the mind resides there.

Limitless
Modern science has given us the pill - again. Nootropics. That stands for mind benders.
Nootropics are believed to be safe for the brain.
In case anyone is unfamiliar with this, their purpose is to enhance mental clarity and focus, to leverage the brain's capacity. Users report being in the zone. Their brain waves flow in a synchronized pattern and their thinking is boosted by the nootropics. The pills can run $300 a bottle and should be taken daily to be effective. Note: There are also nootropic blends and imitations out there. So buyer beware.
Oddly, all this came about just as I was beginning to notice some very powerful thinkers seem to burn themselves out. Jim Morrison, for example, was highly intelligent, talented, and unfortunately burned out while young. Addicted to mind altering drugs and alcohol, Jim couldn't live with himself. He died of an overdose at age 27, and the world lost him, his musical talents and his undeniable beauty. Jim was an avid reader of the great thinker, philosopher, and prolific writer, Friedrich Nietzsche. Nietzsche's mind-bending philosophy was cut short, tragically, when at age 44 Nietzsche suffered a complete breakdown and lived the rest of his days in a near vegetative state. It is believed he died from brain cancer.
For many years, people believed the pill was safe. Modern people scoffed at those not on the pill. Some people didn't want to live taking a pill every day. How do you know the long-term effects of artificial medicines until they are used long-term? Today we know that the high levels of hormones used in those early versions of the pill are linked to breast cancer.
It's very easy, and natural to get your brain waves into the flow. It doesn't have to involve costly pills or mind bending ingredients. Yogis have done this for centuries, exhibiting astounding mental and physical powers of concentration and self-control.
The natural way to enhance mental and physical prowess is through diet, exercise, rest and meditation. Hatha Yoga is a gentle way to exercise and tone the body. Kundalini yoga is a yoga to calm and strengthen the mind and concentration. These yogas along with a healthy, balanced diet will enhance your physical and mental state without leading to burn out and without taking a chance on mind bending drugs.
Modern science is always advancing and its answers as such are always temporal.

The Classics
In A Tale of Two Cities there is a character, an old man, who spent many years in the Bastille. Like many others at the time, he had been wrongfully imprisoned during the French Revolution. He had been put there because of who we was, and not what he had done. It was a time when the uneducated masses revolted against the rich, powerful, educated or privileged few.
Why am I thinking of him today? I think of his example, because of his behavior after he was released. An educated man, he had learned a simple trade in prison. When trouble entered his life again, the old man would return to his trade. He would shut himself in his room and begin making shoes. It was his way of shutting out the world rather than of dealing with further trauma.
Many people find books dealing with art, history and the sciences to be dry and boring. Entering into the trials and tribulations of adulthood, they wish for their crayons. It would be so much easier just to be children again. This is classic human behavior. During times of stress, our minds shut down and we revert to earlier patterns of behavior.
Being well read and educated, we have a chance to realize our behavior, to understand what we are reacting to. In The Time Machine we are treated to a visit to the future, a time where books are left to crumble into dust and humans are prey to savage sub human creatures. They are selfish, uneducated and incapable of protecting themselves.
These books are commentaries on society and human nature. Education in psychology, history, the sciences, arts, philosophy and religion help one understand what it is, has been and could be to be human. Never stop reading. But choose wisely. That boring book just might open up a whole new world.
I read today that some of you miss your crayons. As a teen I met a famed Spanish artist. He did my portrait in pastels. I learned to do my art with them. I wouldn't go back to crayons.

Teleporting 3
Part 3 - Teleporting
To free your body, first you must free the mind.
Realizing your thoughts are clouding your inner vision is the first step toward embracing the inner calm.
Meditate and learn to still the thoughts. Only when your mind is trained to control itself will it be able to listen for the thoughts of the Collective or higher mind.
A desire you bring to this inner chamber will echo throughout the universal consciousness. That is why you cannot enter loudly. Only the quiet peaceful mind may gain entry.
Over time you may hear the Voice and finally meet your higher mind. This is but a link in the chain of consciousness. You may progress to having OBEs (out of body experiences), or astral travel, and experience your first teleporting adventure in this manner. You may find that your consciousness progresses to where you are able to communicate with yourself at earlier or later times in your life. This can affect the course of your destiny.
The first step is to believe that all of this is possible. For many people, it is not enough to read that others have done this, even that mystics or religious figures have done these things. That is why I have explained this in terms of the connection between mind and matter, the physics.
Science is at the threshold of this truth: All reality exists in the Mind of God. As a creation of Mind, it is all Mind. Your mind is part of that. Strengthen it, and claim your birthright, as a child of God.
"(you) are nothing without us. We are nothing without (you)." - The Collective

Crystal Heart
The brain, in fact, is infused with crystalline minerals. Unlike glass, crystal is a structured sub-atomic substance, which conducts electricity and can transmit or receive information. The brain and the human nervous system are connected via a network of neurons and nerve centers which communicate via electronic impulses. Thus the body is united via this communications system as one.
The brain is the seat of human consciousness, the mind. However, the mind is a much grander entity than just the brain. It connects to the brain and thus the body through the same electro-magnetism that animates our universe. The body symbolizes key facets of human attributes, the mind at the top and the heart at it's core. However, these attributes all reside in the mind.
When we speak here of the heart, we speak symbolically of the human heart, an organ, which is known to suffer physically when the heart or the mind is injured. We also speak of the core of human feeling. The connection is not just symbolic, but also physical, due to the psychological association.
Time heals all wounds it is said. A heart breaks many times in the course of a person's life.
Each time it is bruised, the heart will harden. The man, woman or child learns to steel the inner self against more misfortune.
The mind takes action to shield its tender heart or core. It builds a wall around the injury.
Each time this happens a little piece of the heart is cut out; it no longer communicates with the rest of the persona. No more tender memories of that person may dwell in the forefront of mind, for they hurt far more than the bad memory of whatever pain was inflicted.
The mind has built another wall around the heart. Each time it hardens to keep from breaking, for inside that wall it is shattered.
Over time, we forget the pain. We forget the love. We forget compassion, mercy and tenderness. Empathy cannot penetrate the wall.
The only way to redeem a broken heart is to tear down that wall and grieve for the person once loved - ourselves.
The memories are locked up inside that core, the heart of the mind. The much-maligned book Dianetics hinted at this process, the process of becoming a clear. In Dianetics, a clear is a person who has remembered and relived all the past trauma, reclassifying and understanding what has happened in the past and then moving on. The key concept here was in facing the memories of the past, and allowing them to enter present conscious awareness. The emotions locked up behind the wall of consciousness, the memory block, contain massive amounts of energy. This emotional energy must be released for the persona to be whole again. Until this is done, emotional energy will be limited and relationships will suffer. The mind that has faced it's memories can begin to repair itself.
