This post is re-posted from the "old Forum." The reply I posted below this one is new and very relevant . . .
KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION
IS THE ACTION OF
EDUCATING ONESELF
Our practice group was set up for the purpose of accomplishing what is the headline title of this post.
Our, this, forum exists to provide the facility such that you can educate yourselves on the points of knowledge that you find most important to you.
It was not set up to indoctrinate or insist on what you should know, believe or practice.
Our practice here is not that of a cult or the creation of such. You'll observe there is no invalidations of those posting and exchanging points of belief or knowledge. There is no enforcement of what must be believed.
There is only the invitation, by way of either questions asked of an individual or the presentation of more educative knowledge materials, for the members to accept or not as is their sovereign right.
In this context, as you all know, I research and study many, many more subjects and bodies on knowledge than is encompassed by Knowledgism and related spiritual development or spiritual "science" based subjects or practices.
In this context I am linking here a body of knowledge I feel sure many of you will benefit greatly from appreciating. (In all senses of that word.)
In the last few days I have had some wondrous advances in my spiritual awareness and capacity to perform.
This morning I was reviewing this Bruce Lipton video below in its entirety, where before I had only view parts of it separately.
Bruce Lipton is one of my heroes along with Rupert Sheldrake . . . they exhibit the greatness of the best intellect possible. But to be noted is the point that they began and have practiced their research and knowledge acquisition from a very different position and viewpoint than I did.
Theirs was begun from the position and viewpoint of physical universe science in academia and an analysis and investigation based on physical universe terms of reference as propositioned by "science." Lipton very beautifully demonstrates this in his video here.
My investigation began from the proposition of investigating what is the basis of our ability to perform and accomplish success in our endeavors . . . this originally as an elite champion athlete. The outcome of that approach led me to the discovery of the "who" was performing and causing outcomes and to the exactness of the nature and the powers of the "performer" (the individual you and me).
In essence, it could be said that I had a very different basis and approach to the investigation of the subject at hand addressed by Lipton, Sheldrake and myself.
My research was based on and from the position of cause and the causation of "what is" and the outcomes we produce. In other words I began my studies into who or what is the source of the action of causation.
Other researchers like Lipton and Sheldrake, began from the position of studying what is actually the effects of causation. They began their work from the position of studying the outcomes and products of causation, not the who/what or how of causation.
Lipton and Sheldrake began their work as scientists based in the physical mechanical universe sciences that, brilliantly, they were able to rise above and in actuality eventually debunk.
Hence, for your education and learning in this regard, I now link videos to their wonderful work.
Bruce Lipton The Biology of Belief Full Lecture
There are many brilliant talks, videos, lectures and written materials here!
In due course, Virginia is likely to get to posting what occurred this morning for her in our chat. As I said above, I have been having huge, huge gains from my solo processing sessions recently; and this morning, while watching Lipton I had a particular insight that, to me explained Virginia's cancer condition.
Then, when we next were together in the kitchen for the next cup of coffee, I mentioned my insight . . .
I told her that what I saw and experienced is that cancer is brought about by or as the consequence of spiritual absence from the cell. That is, a lessened spiritual Life-Force quanta in the cell inhibits, alters or lessens its "respiration" (energy production). (For you guys who may not know, cancer cells are anaerobic: the don't/can't produce their energy by using oxygen. They have to ferment sugars.
The change in Virginia was just amazing and awesome to experience! When she lights up, she lights up!
And what she had to say as realizations wonderfully explained and demonstrated the accuracy of the datum I conveyed.
The rest I'll leave for her to relate to you.
