Believing a lie is, probably, the worse thing one can do.
The best lie contains some truth.
edit: Perhaps this is why so many believe lies...

It was the researchers who brought ponerology and its historical context to public awareness through their hard work and enormous sacrifices (Lobaczewski,LKJ and others). Thanks to their efforts, we are beginning to see the world as it really is.monksgirl said:Perhaps we all owe a debt to the unseen guides to arrive at that point ourselves.
What is the nature of mind and consciousness, the unseen world, and with who do we interact? How do we learn? All on our own or through the agency of other humans only? Is all Work accomplished entirely solo? Who or what are the C's? What of 'when the student is ready the teacher appears'?
I do heartily -and in complete awe- respect the work and sacrifice of others, which is daily on display here, and in the numerous works referenced on this forum.
We, and especially Laura and Ark, take nothing that the C's say at face value. As they say, the C's are the 10% inspiration and then research makes up the other 90%. Also, any old "guide" can say they are positive while all the while being negative and leading those who think they are positive down the path of lies.
Never questioning who these "guides" are, not researching and cross-researching what has been said is folly. And only through a network of like-minded people can this be done correctly because we can all be fooled by wishful thinking.
Have you read the Wave series? If you have read all 7 volumes, you would understand how listening to voices, or "guides", can lead one quite astray. Believing a lie is, probably, the worse thing one can do.
Just sayin'.....
monksgirl said:hmmm.....I think I have been a bit misunderstood. I do not hear voices, I do not channel, I only read voraciously and have had numerous prescient dreams, those dreams gave rise to my original interest in esoterica. I have not completed all 7 of the Wave series as yet. I go after whatever information interests me at the moment, as this is the way I learn. I like to understand and incorporate one thing at a time.
The guides I am referring to are these ideas one gets of 'where to direct now'; from where do these arise? I take nothing at face value, including discarding the ideas in the Wave series for quite a long time. Unfortunately, I have to discover things for myself, so my progress is slow; this is partially also due to crushing long-term personal responsibilities. I remain unconvinced that the lessons of others are equally applicable in our own lives, otherwise knowledge would be more easily obtained. And it is obviously of too great a cost and worth to the individual who obtains it to be anything easy. I maintain a sense of perpetual wonder at the vast differences in human learning styles, personalities, and how these interact with our searches for the truth about ourselves and the nature of the universe.

You appear to be a talking contradition as you had earlier posted in the thread on FB nastiness:
"If you look at that thread i edited that about 10 times, due to my paranoia about privacy over the last few months, and changing my mind.
Im guessing as an admin you will be able to see that that was the case?
I rarely said anything on FB, and when i did i was always polite and respectful.
I didnt have a problem with anyone from here, if thats the insinuation. "
So it appears that your computer was hacked because of a weak password. Perhaps your replies in this thread are another example of a "weak password" as well. Why not take a challenge and become more involved in proactively supporting those that do see the very real threats looming constantly. You've made it obvious that you were "attacked" as well, only in cyberspace. So are you then going to retreat into your protected world and continue to remain "polite and respectful" or will you summon the courage to see through your own fears and act? This is the essence of The Work. Your choice, of course, but I believe that is why we are all here.
Check this out for an example on how you may support an action that does affect all of us:

I wish for you, my brother, the courage to face these petty tyrants in support of those like no-man's-land and seekr and many others too scared to even report these atrocities. They are all too common. But perhaps you may not until you get that knock on the door.
regards
David

I didnt appreciate having my photo wacked on here, and being found guilty before giving the opportunity to explain myself.
I thought this forum was above that kind of internet behaviour, but obviously not. And now im labelled.
Anyways, im just repeating myself.

Do you have any more specific info on that? I've been on Chrome for years, and have never had an issue with any website anywhere. If you have some evidence showing that Chrome is a flawed browser open to attack, it would be useful, I've never seen such a thing.

What does all that mean? I've not seen any photo, nor seen anyone 'finding you guilty' here. You've had every opportunity to explain yourself, and you still do. It may helpful if you can show evidence of where this has happened here in the thread, using the Quote feature. What have you been labelled exactly and by whom?
Anyways, im just repeating myself.
Yes, what you have posted is very similar to what you have already posted. Therefore, I do not think it is true that you had no opportunity to explain yourself - once you received the opportunity, you chose to repeat what was already said, which we have all read earlier...
Just some observations and question, for what they're worth.
davey72 said:Hello Melatonin. I just wanted to say that you certainly are not labelled. You are just learning, as are we all. At times i have taken offense at a reply to something i have said, but then i think about it, and take it as it was meant. To give me a little nudge, or shock in the right direction. We are all in the same boat here. :)
melatonin said:Agreed, we are. Its certainly helps having good written english skills online, which i lack. Something im going to focus on improving. Im constantly getting mis-understood in my life, and i know i have difficulty in expressing myself.
melatonin said:Like earlier in the thread, i was getting told to "wake up" basically, and there was some pretty condesending replys thats suprised me. [...]
Thats just my opinion, if that makes me a 'sheep', then so be it.

melatonin, the issue is not your english skills - it's your attitude. For instance:

You DO have an attitude problem. You ARE defensive and all of it is your false personality and if you are going to sincerely participate here, you need to drop the attitude. The world is not out to get you, you aren't speshul in your suffering. If you want to be open and honest and sincere here and try to learn, then you are more than welcome - but - if you're going to be grumpy, snarky, sarcastic, defensive and unpleasant, then, there is really no time for dealing with that. Your life is a reflection of who you are so if you're not happy with responses you get here, look to yourself first.
