Repairing the machine, etc

I think you're underestimating the mental/emotional and physical benefits of Detox - especially the mental. With a cleaner body, one can experience sharper perception, quicker and clearer thinking and much energy to improve the emotional state. This kind of improvement makes the Work easier in terms of the energy and mental effort required.

one step that you can do in this direction is to find a good naturopath in your area that can do a heavy metal hair analysis and a blood test to see what your allergies/food in tolerances are .
Are you still eating gluten?are you taking any supplements? how is your diet?
try the physical detox first so you can free your mind for the emotional and mental detox FWIW

I wanted to point out to Laura, after reading one of the C's sessions, that while a possible smaller Tunguska like event explodes in the atmosphere and the PTB are succeeding beyond their wildest dreams and the future looking bleak, and on edge of catastrophe...if the QFG is humanity's best hope, there is something missing. And that it would seem that under those conditions, somebody that could do what I asked in the question, would be a relatively easy task, in the face of "a possible near and collective mass hardship and death," and in light of the relative difficulty of doing the work "and time getting short"- which would make it seem reasonable that said question ought to be answerable with a "yes." I'm sorry; it wasn't nice of me. I wanted to express this rather then leaving it turning in my mind. Forgive me if writing this lacks external consideration.

If by 'the question', you mean 'can someone fix my machine for me' then it seems that you really need to consider something.

By 'the question', I mean the initial question of my post, "I was wondering if anybody can give me the contact information of an individual, group, retreat, or institute that uses their esoteric knowledge or knowledge to clean and repair the inner machine, and can otherwise identify and find solutions for a person's inner problems, for therapeutic purposes?"

You need to consider that this life of yours is a reflection of you - of who you are and what you see - and you are the only one who can do anything at all about it.

I've been suffering the larger part of my life from "a neurosis". I'm seeing a cognitive therapist at the moment.

It's your life, these are your lessons and this is your soul.

I understand that this is my life and my problems(though I'll have to give some thought to where and what are the lessons in my life), and nobody can do anything at all about them but me. And that doesn't necessarily mean that others can't help me at all.

You have been given the tools, a light has been shined on the door and still you look for more, for someone else to do for you what you think you cannot do for yourself.

Well, I look for somebody else to do for me what I think I cannot do for myself because I think my inner problems at insurrmountable for me to do by myself. I mean, if I cannot see who I am and what I see, and I am so "blind" to myself, and unable to properly and adequately see the reflection of this life of mine that is a reflection of me, how will I be able to deal with my problems/lessons?

No one can do this for you - that is not how the school is designed.

If you mean the QFS/this forum, as 'the school', is not designed that way, then it would seem the answer is no. But as a part of networking, why not somebody else outside of this school? Maybe 'the school', as Universe, isn't designed that way either?

Just some thoughts with the above comments.

Yes, I have been given the tools and a light has been shinned on the door, and it seems like it is just up to me to use the tools and go through the door. I know you are saying something more then my comments could suggest I understood.

As far as you feeling like you have no time to learn what you need to learn, no one knows they have more than the next few seconds to live - none of us - yet we do what is in us to do.

Thanks for the quotes.

Perspective, AlexE, is, to my understanding, very important.

Maybe I'm glued on to my blindspot.

Thanks for your reply, it helps give some prespective for me, or at least something to consider.

Based on your question, as worded, you're right in the middle of what you're looking for!

That's pretty funny!

I am really at the very beginning about learning about diet and detox.

Are you still eating gluten?are you taking any supplements? how is your diet?

I am still eating gluten. I am not taking any supplements regularly. My diet is as "everybody else's," no dietary constraints.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions, buddy and rrraven.

Can the question of AlexE be seen from the following angle, or am I completely of track here?


from ISOTM, p 160

Only a man who possesses will, that is conscous control, can live without buffers. Consequentely, if a man begins to destroy buffers within himself he must at the same time develop a will. And as will cannot be created to order in a short space of time a man may be left with buffers demolished and with a will that is not as yet sufficiently strengthened. the only chance he has during this period is to be controlled by another will which has already been strengthened.
This is why in school work, which includes the destruction of buffers, a man must be ready to obey another man's will so long as his own will is not yet fully developed. Usually this subordination to another man's will is studied before anything else. I use the word studied because a man must understand why such obedience is necessary and he must learn to obey. The latter is not at all easy. A man beginning the work of self study with the object of attaining control over himself is accustomed to believe in his own decisions. Even the fact that he has seen the necessity for changing himself shows him that his decisions are correct and strenghtens his belief in him. But when he begins to work on himself man must give up his own decisions, sacrifice his own decisions, because otherwise the will of the man who directs his work will not be able to control his actions.
In schools of the religious way obedience is demanded before anything else, that is, full and unquestioning submision although without understanding. Schools of the fourth way demand understanding before anything else. Resulst are always proportional to understanding.
Renunciation of his own decisions. subordination to the will of another. may present insuperable difficulties to a man if he had failed to realize beforehand that actually he neither sacrifices nor changes anything in his life, that all his life he has been subject to some extraneous will and has never had any decisions on his own. But a man is not conscious of this.

Is her help a call to be helped to develop her will?

Hi Jermey,

I am male btw.

I don't know the answers to your questions.

While I'm not certain if it is the development of my will, per say, that is the essential problematic, I think, as it seems to me at the moment of writing, that the problem lies elsewhere. A sticking point seems to be that I cannot see some very important things about myself and that some things have gone awry inside, so awry that is seems impossible for me to be able to see those things that have gone awry and rectify them by myself.
