Discrimination

This is a - sadly - massive topic, one that I have touched on or covered to some degree in quite a few posts, which can be found here.

Nevertheless, I have a few thoughts I want to record - particularly given that I am, above all else, writing these blogs for future incarnations of myself. This ... well, it is more a description of one aspect of discrimination than a "definition", but, whatever it is, came to me partly out of some meditation this morning, and I felt it was given to me for the purpose of recording, so here goes.

Actually, one last qualification before I get into this: this idea has surely been recorded in many other places in many other ways ...

Let's start by looking at a couple of characteristics that are stereotypically attributed to different groups of people. After working through lots of possible ways of identifying these, I decided to go with the colours I use elsewhere: purple and orange. You can, as is appropriate, attribute these to either gender or race or some other group. (More on that later.)

The stereotypical view of the occurrence of these in the two groups is as follows:

Each group has its respective characteristic, which doesn't appear in the other (e.g., all men are ... , all women are ... , or race Z is ... - and that goes for characteristics considered "good" as well as those considered "bad"), their world view is constructed accordingly, and the unevolved people having these views try to enforce them for - ultimately - their own personal comfort, security, and mental/intellectual/emotional laziness. 

If we are dealing with slightly less unevolved people, they may bend to accepting that there is a slight distribution of these characteristics, along the following lines:
Now, the actual TRUTH is that both characteristics are likely to occur on the same axis, and have more of a bell curve distribution:
Furthermore, if we take out the active and malicious social engineering of neochristianity and similar Abrahamic religions over the last couple of millennia, and the other social engineering and patriarchy that went with the development of cities, to some extent, agriculture, and patriarchal social structures of the last five or ten millennia, the original (biological) distribution is probably along the following lines:
In other words, there quite possibly is a difference (this does NOT apply to "race"; the ONLY differences that exist there are as a result of cultural conditioning and the effects of massive, widespread and sustained discrimination/privilege), but it is nowhere near enough to justify the discrimination built up around it.

In fact, the ONLY valid way to view the occurrence of these characteristics is to - as the great Dr Martin Luther King, jr, said ("I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character") -  assume that you don't know, and treat/judge each person on their specific merits/faults.
As a digression, my view is that "the law" tends to take a somewhat haphazard view of such characteristics, along the lines of the following:
Science is little better, if at all, as - in my experience - too many modern academics miss to many obvious, everyday/common sense issues/aspects/consequences. (I also have some cranky thoughts about some of the assumptions scientists and statisticians use, but that is a thought for another post ... )

Ley lines and Earth energy centres/vortices

I just realised I do quite a bit of work with and on these, and I don't have a definition of them - which would have been handy this morning, when  I was doing a YouTube video that touched on the topic.

So, very, very, VERY briefly:
  • ley lines are more or less the Earth's equivalent of meridians in humans; 
  • energy centres or vortices or power spots/places (depending on which side of the tracks you're from) are more or less / sort of (depending on which side of the tracks you're from) the Earth's equivalent of chakras in humans.
A few key points:
  • just as the number/quality of chakras in humans evolve, so too do energy structures in the Earth; 
  • my personal opinion, partly influenced by Bruce Cathie's controversial work, is that continental drift can result in a discrepancy between the current location of vortices/ley lines and geographical features that were associated with them/their creation; 
  • some energetic structures (some good, some not, some variable/indeterminate) are the creation of concentrated/prolonged human activity - and PAN's full moon ceremonies were at one time located to take advantage of this; 
  • just as problems (blockages, imbalances, too much/too little energy, etc) in human meridians and energy centres can cause problems, so too can problems with the Earth's meridians (i.e., ley lines) and chakras (i.e., vortices) cause problems - to the Earth, and the various forms of line within range of that disturbance;
  • just as problems (blockages, imbalances, too much/too little energy, etc) in human meridians and energy centres can be fixed - or at least minimised, so too can problems with the Earth's meridians (i.e., ley lines) and chakras (i.e., vortices) be fixed - or at least minimised - it just may take a bigger, or longer effort than for humans ...
The best thing I can do here is give links to some sources I (reasonably) trust on this topic or consider a good starting point:

Links

I realised I haven't done a post on this topic, so I will throw up some notes from my nonphysical strength workshop.

Appendix C (Psychic) Links

Something quite a few people know as a result of crime investigation shows, is the guiding principle of forensic science that when there is a contact in the physical world, there is a trace left – whether that is a fingerprint or DNA or something else. The same principle applies to the non-physical world as well: when we interact with other people, or with places, there is a – non-physical - residue left.
The type of residue that I wish to consider now is what I term a “link”, and what other people have called “cords” (or “psychic cords” or “psychic links”).
The strength and nature of these links depends on the strength and nature of the interaction:
Ø  interact in a superficial, pleasant way with someone (e.g. smile, or hold a door open), and the “link” will be minor, but of a positive nature, which means its existence will be pleasant – for instance, a better mood;
Ø  interact in a superficial, unpleasant way with someone (perhaps scowl at a stranger), and the link will similarly be minor, but its existence will be unpleasant – perhaps interpreted as promptings of a guilty conscience;
Ø  interact in a positive way with someone to an extent that is meaningful or significant, such as form a loving relationship with them, and the linkage that is established (actually, it will probably be a whole group of links) will be significant and pleasant – felt, for instance, as a warm, loving glow when you think of that person;
Ø  interact in a negative way with someone to an extent that is meaningful or significant, such as harm or perhaps even kill them, and the linkage that is established will be significant and pleasant – the return of energy from your victim is actually one of the mechanisms for the return of karma.
The existence of negative links can result in a number of problems for the person who created them (often done so in a previous life), problems such as disturbed sleep, pain, guilt, even what is attributed to “bad luck”.
On the other hand, positive links can be a source of inner resilience and strength, particularly in trying times.
Negative links can be cleared, and positive links can be strengthened. The clearing of a negative link is best done by dissolving it with love – which is also the technique for strengthening a positive link.
Before getting into the details of the technique, note that I do NOT recommend simply “cutting” the link: that is an aggressive technique that leaves problems unresolved, and the ends of the cut links or cords may latch on to other people and cause problems elsewhere.
When you clear a negative link, the people (or people and places, etc) on both ends of the link will have the psychic burden of that link removed, and thus will generally both feel better and function more effectively in life.
When you strengthen a positive link, the people (or people and places, etc) on both ends of the link will generally experience a lift in mood.

Clearing a negative link:

  1. establish protection (and check that it is adequate);
  2. think of a time in your life when you most felt a generous, positive love, and relive that time or moment as much as possible, to rebuild those energies in your aura;
  3. ask you Guides to help you become aware of the location of the negative link that it is most important, for the Highest Spiritual Good, that you clear;
  4. when you have a sense of where that link is, allow the love you have built up to flow out through that link until you feel that is has totally dissolved. If this link was formed as a result of you doing wrong to someone else, you will be healing that person by this action;
  5. you can repeat this for other links, but I strongly recommend that you alternate between clearing negative and strengthening positive links;
  6. when you have finished, close your chakras and aura, centre and ground yourself, thank the Guides for their help, and allow the protection to ease back to whatever your Guides wish you to have for normal, everyday life.

Strengthening a positive link:

  1. establish protection (and check that it is adequate);
  2. think of a time in your life when you most felt a generous, positive love, and relive that time or moment as much as possible, to rebuild those energies in your aura;
  3. ask you Guides to help you become aware of the location of the positive link that it is most important, for the Highest Spiritual Good, that you strengthen;
  4. when you have a sense of where that link is, allow the love you have built up to flow out through that link until you feel the love coming back (at the other end of the link, the person receiving this link may find themselves suddenly thinking warmly of you);
  5. you can repeat this for other links;
  6. when you have finished, close your chakras and aura, centre and ground yourself, thank the Guides for their help, and allow the protection to ease back to whatever your Guides wish you to have for normal, everyday life.
These skills, like any other, are strengthened by practice. One of the useful aspects of this to develop is the ability to check for the number of links that you have to clear or strengthen.
