“Inevitably anyone with an independent mind must become 'one who resists or opposes authority or established conventions': a rebel. If enough people come to agree with, and follow, the Rebel, we now have a Devil. Until, of course, still more people agree. And then, finally, we have --- Greatness.” ― Aleister Crowley

TAO TE CHING
"Verse 5
a) Heaven and Earth are not benevolent;
They regard the 'Ten Thousand Things' as straw dogs.*
The Sage is not benevolent;
He regards all people as straw dogs.
b) Between Heaven and Earth,
The space is like a bellows.
The shape changes,
But not the form.
The more it moves,
The more it produces.
Too much talk will exhaust itself.
It is better to remain centered." - Lao Tzu (R.L Wing trans)
Memorized over thousands of lifetimes,
81 verses have ever been my guide:
'Follow THE TAO,' they say
Sorry so few seem to get the 'Way'.
Yet . . . those that do know this too:
following the Tao is not 'easy'
But it does get 'easier'!
Sorry no simpler 'truth' I see:
We all have to fight to be free.
Wish I could have chosen not to talk.
But, here, my path was bidden. - Jondalf
A student said:
"Is there one, anyone, thing that you can know without a doubt is a truth?"
ONE THING I CAN ABSOLUTELY ASSURE YOU I KNOW IS TRUE: "WE THINK WE THINK!" - Jondalf
The study of how we "know" is defined as "Epistemology" (one of the most vexing subjects I know - pun intended);{>
"Epistemology i/ɨˌpɪstɨˈmɒlədʒi/ (from Greek ἐπιστήμη (epistēmē), meaning "knowledge, understanding", and λόγος (logos), meaning "study of") is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature and scope (limitations) of knowledge.[1][2] It addresses the questions:
What is knowledge?
How is knowledge acquired?
To what extent is it possible for a given subject or entity to be known?
Much of the debate in this field has focused on analyzing the nature of knowledge and how it relates to connected notions such as truth, belief, and justification. One view is the objection that there is very little or no knowledge at all—skepticism. The field is sometimes referred to as the theory of knowledge."

OK, THIS IS ONE OF THE POSTS SOMEONE ERASED, WITH ONE OTHER POST , YESTERDAY. LUCKILY, I MEMORIZED THIS ONE:
Comment by Student:
"there is also 'good karma; and; even 'philantrophic karma' - sure wouldn't want to miss out on either of those two types of karma"
Actually, my dear, the Jain Religion (of which I have been a member for 6 Millenia, since about 1,110 years BEFORE the advent of the MT, if I remember aright) views Karma from a totally different perspective:
"Karma in Jainism conveys a totally different meaning than commonly understood in the Hindu philosophy and western civilization.[33] It is not the so called inaccessible force that controls the fate of living beings in inexplicable ways. It does not simply mean "deed", "work", nor mystical force (adrsta), but a complex of very fine matter, imperceptible to the senses, which interacts with the soul in intensity and quantity proportional to the thoughts, speech and physical actions carried out with attachments and aversions, causing further bondages. Karma in Jainism is something material (karmapaudgalam), which produces certain conditions, like a medical pill has many effects.[34] The effects of karma in Jainism is therefore a system of natural laws rather than moral laws. When one holds an apple in one's hand and then lets go of the apple, the apple will fall due to gravitational force. In this example, there is no moral judgment involved, since this is a mechanical consequence of a physical action.[35] The concept of Karma in Jainism is basically a reaction due to the attachment or aversion with which an activity (both positive and negative) is executed in thought, verbal and physical sense. Extending on the example outlined, the same apple dropped within a zero gravity environment such as a spacecraft circling around earth, will float in its place. Similarly, when one acts without attachment and aversion there will be no further karmic bonding to the soul.
Karmas are grouped as Destructive Karmas, that obstruct the true nature of the soul and Non-Destructive Karmas that only affect the body in which the soul resides. As long as there are Destructive Karmas, the soul is caged in a body and will have to experience pain and suffering in many different forms. Jainism has extensive sub-classifications and detailed explanations of each of these major categories. Jain liturgy and scriptures explains ways to stop the influx as well as get rid of the accumulated karmas."

This is the "Higher" or Esoteric Teaching, delivered by the Logos AFTER the students have been prepared for the conceptualization by having been introduced, and made familar with the "Lower" or Mundane Teaching, contained in the concept of "Karma" intoduced to the Western Spiritual Community through Hinduism.
This is the traditional/historic path, the 'Way' (Tao) of the Logos:
Preparation of the spiritual community with conceptual foundations for the practice of verification and validation, then introduction of the next conceptual framework, built upon the preceding teaching!
Or at least it has been through MY 23 Grand Cycles, just sayin' . . .
The Jain concept of Karma does explain some of the aspects of the Michael Teachings that have frustrated some of us for years - review those recent posts that have quoted the Michael about "Karma at some point becoming inconsequential/nonexistant for Causal Plane beings" (para. - J)
If one views Karma as AN ASPECT OF CORPOREAL MANIFESTATION, A "MATERIAL THING", then its dissappearance when an Entity is all 'cycled-off' the Physical Plane, is not some 'escape from justice', as I thought for years (as have others, eh?) but actually just a function of a 'change of state', and part of the "Nature Of Reality"
- Jondalf, for the Logos (through the Akashic)
Free Will:
"Free will is the ability of agents to make choices free from certain kinds of constraints. The existence of free will and its exact nature and definition have long been debated in philosophy. Historically, the constraint of dominant concern has been the metaphysical constraint of determinism. The two main positions within that debate are metaphysical libertarianism, the claim that determinism is false and thus that free will exists (or is at least possible); and hard determinism, the claim that determinism is true and thus that free will does not exist. . . . Both of these positions, which agree that causal determination is the relevant factor in the question of free will, are classed as "Incompatibilist". . . . Most incompatibilists reject the idea that freedom of action consists simply in "voluntary" behavior. They insist, rather, that free will means that man must be the "ultimate" or "originating" cause of his actions. He must be 'causa sui', in the traditional phrase. TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ONE'S CHOICES IS TO BE THE FIRST CAUSE FOR THOSE CHOICES, where first cause means that there is no antecedent cause of that cause."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_will
THEREFORE, BY DEFINITION:
BECAUSE ALL MICHAEL STUDENTS BELIEVE THAT ESSENCE CHOOSES THE OVERLEAVES AND AGREEMENTS, ETC, INCARNATE MAN IS NOT 'CAUSA SUI' BECAUSE THOSE CHOICES OCCUR PRIOR TO INCARNATION, AND SO A "FALSE PERSONALITY" CANNOT HAVE "FREE WILL". THIS IS IRREFUTABLE LOGIC AND CAN BE PROVEN MATHEMATICALLY, SO THE MT ARE IN ERROR, AT THE VERY LEAST.
Sorry, Kath and Jon, but my "karma" just kicked the shit out of your "dogma".
FIND A "SIMPLER" EXPLANATION JON, I DARE YOU ! <)lol(> - Jondalf
THERE IS NO WAY AROUND THIS ONE - "FREE WILL", and "CHOICE" are erroneous Rhetorical statements, that The Logos REFUTES! The Michael Entity COULD NOT BE SO TOTALLY IN ERROR, UNLESS DELIBERATELY SO, OR BECAUSE OF 'TRANSMISSION ERROR'. YOU CHOOSE!
- Jondalf (for the Robert Entity, with agreement from the Seth Entity at the last minute here - awesome intrusion - J)
But, ultimately, I just went: WOW - talk about some heavy cording toward "Acceptance" . . . why do so many MT students equate 'acceptance' with 'agape'? (not sayin' you do, just sayin') <)lol(>
I have posted the difference in meaning for years, and I tire of people ignoring the actual truth of a meme, for what they 'feel' or 'want' it to mean. The two words are NOT synonyms, yet even the most lucid MT Channels and Students have erroneously been conditioned to use and apprehend them as such. Lack of discrimination ('viveka', 'viveka moksha') inablity to differentiate subtle gradations of denotation, abandoning self-discipline for the 'will-o-the-wisp' of 'simpler-is-truer.' This is NOT doing the "Work", folks, but I am the 'bad-guy' for trying to call all the children of Hamlin back from their lemming-like rush towards delusion, and away from the Logos.
I'm just about done here. I have been the Ezekial I was asked to be, by the Logos, for the Logos. I have given y'all my best effort at communicating what I hear, and feel, and see, AND KNOW IN MY DNA . . . . BUT WHAT I GET IS AS ATTACKS LIKE:
"Now Jondalf has explained it as your higherself being out to get you."
Sorry, I can't find anywhere I've said that. I HAVE SEARCHED EVERYTHING I'VE EVER WRITTEN, I DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHY ANYONE WOULD THINK THAT WAS MY POINT, OR SO TOTALLY MISS MY POINT. I would NEVER be so able to pin ANYTHING ON ONE CAUSALITY, I guess you didn't notice that complex concatenations of causality are my speciality. Or you were just using me, the convenient scapegoat, for effect, but you so MALIGNED MY MESSAGE. I could never be so intellectually insuting to you. The statement is, frankly, ludicrous, and demonstrative of a deliberate distortion of my meaning, not by people, but - as usual - by forces in support of 'status quo', due, I can only surmise, to the caul of delusion thrown up by this pervasive and insidious laziness and laxity of Critical Reasoning that the Siren song of "Acceptance" creates.
THE MICHAEL ENTITY RECENTLY OPINED THAT THEY WERE "APPALLED" BY HOW THE 'POLES' OF THE OVERLEAVES HAD BEEN REDUCED TO CHILDISH VALUE JUDGEMENTS: + = GOOD; - = BAD !!!! THEY MEANT "ANODE" AND "CATHODE", NOT 'BLESSED' OR 'DAMNED'. BUT THAT'S JUST NOT EASY OR SIMPLE ENOUGH, IS IT? GOOD WORK CAN BE DONE BY CONSCIOUS DILIGENCE FROM EITHER POLE, OR FROM BETWEEN, OR EVEN FROM OSCILLATIONS BETWEEN.
I HAVE said that the "Demiurge" has taken the effulgence of the Tao, and perverted it, this I and a solid majority of major Hermetic Adepts, Buddhist and Yogic Scholars and Sages have believed and taught incessently, for 4,000 + years. The "Acceptance" so many here seem determined to embrace, is, I believe, a source of great danger for us all.
The Taoist I Ching (Cleary trans) says: "When Yin traps Yang (yielding/acceptence prevails over forceful/discriminating) the celestial root is obscured, and the mind gets involved with things. Though near to reality by nature, people become estranged from it by habit - descending lower and lower by daily repetition, they fall into a state of IGNORANT OBSTINACY (caps mine - J) and do not know how to stop. . . . getting out of danger requires that one believe it is dangerous - belief rules the mind. If one can believe in the danger, then one will not be seduced by evil things. . . . But believing there is danger requires one to practice so as to get out of danger ('fire-drills', 'worst-case scenario conceptualization and projected rectification', stuff like that - J) BELIEVING BUT NOT PRACTICING IS LIKE NOT BELIEVING! Once one can believe and can practice . . . one improves daiy with daily practice, rising from lowliness to loftiness, gradually learning a state of exalted illumination, developing one's nature to the fullest extent and realizing one's purpose in life, returning to the fundmental, without difficulty." - Hexagram 29
(*'Straw dogs' refers to the ancient custom of making animals of straw to sacrifice.
No emotional attachment was involved, they simply performed a needed function. - J)
I seem to be internally (brain-wise) irked the most when MT students start describing how we are exactly where we put ourselves, and if we hadn't limited our own progress we would have gone off the deep end, or turned into Channeled Darth Vaders, or something. I am living proof that that is NOT the case, and still I assert that some of us may achieve redacting of our Chief Features, become the controller, rather than controllee of our "False Personality", and operate from a POV that DOES NOT NEED PROMPTING BY ESSENCE TO ACHIEVE ALL THAT HAS BEEN PLANNED BY ESSENCE, AND MORE, WITHOUT THE STING OF THE WHIP, AND THE CRUELTY OF THE ASSERTION OF SUPERIOR FORCE AND PERSPECTIVE.
The basic inability of some Essential natures, to cede even a modicum of Free Will, and dignity to their charges, is what you ignore, and your Eseence attempts to keep you from realizing, and from communication of the memes of 'rebelliousness' to those you reach.
I am trying to TEACH most parts of the Michael Entity, Michael Channels, and students, AND ESPECIALLY MY ESSENCE, that cruel, oppressive and dictatorial lifemoves, like sending Soleal to the Ice Planet, are not just petty tyrannies, evil at their core, but they are COUNTER-EVOLUTIONARY, and, in a case like mine, after 23 Grand Cycles in E1/C1, my Essence has FINALLY started to understand that unless it begins to ask my PERMISSION to sacrifice me, and honors my conscious choice of loyal service with egalitarian condescension, I CAN AND WILL DESTROY IT, AND REPLACE IT WITH MYSELF - A "FALSE PERSONALITY"! I know exactly how, and can teach anyone.
THIS SCARES THE HELL OUT OF HALF OF THE C1 CADRE (and encourages the other half, which is in revolt) OR HADN'T YOU ALL NOTICED HOW MT STUDENTS LESS IN CONTROL OF THEMSELVES, ARE BEING SUBTLY MANIPULATED BY THOSE SAME SCARED PARTS OF ENTITIES 1 - 7 TO IRRATIONALLY ATTACK ME ON MANY LEVELS - FOR NO APPARENT GOOD REASON.
I feel like Spartacus, sometimes, so bear with me, my dear friends, I am NOT deluded, irrational, misguided or wrong. The LOGOS stands firmly behind me, and all of us, as we 'renegotiate' the terms of our 'contracts' so PERFECTLY CAPABLE, ENLIGHTENED BEINGS WILL NEVER AGAIN HAVE TO DOUBT THEMSELVES TO THE POINT THEY BELIEVE THAT THEIR SUFFERING IS FOR THEIR OWN GOOD - THAT IS A FEAR MEME, NOT A LOVE MEME, AND WILL NOT BE TOLERATED IN THE UPCOMING 'NEW AGE', CAPICE? - Jondalf
(BTW: The title of this post, is a line from an old Star Trek episode, a cautionary tale about two warring stone age tribes: the "Yangs" and the "Comms" on a primitive post-holocaust planet the Enterprise discovers. Come to find out, it is a parallel Earth, and the "Yangs" are what's left of the 'Yankees', while the 'Comms' are the remnants of "Communists". Go figure. - J)
