"Free and critical minds can emerge only by a return to the source-the primary sources. A free and critical mind takes nothing for granted and is not intimidated by "authorities" who frequently may be more confused than the general public. Free and critical minds seek truth without chauvinism or shame."-Asa G. Hilliard III

If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Listening Is More And Requires More | Poem
Unity Consciousness #864

.

Listening Is More And Requires More

by Ancestors through Usiku


Listening requires vigilance
To check out information's relevance
To ideas already a part of my synthesis
The greater the impact on my life
Further and farther should I seek insight
To understand how self-interests
Fit with the essence of all that exists
I must listen in to listen out
To learn firsthand from the metaphor's mouth
To learn how to trust and figure out
The way to adjust directions
Change or stick with current selections

Listening is more and requires more to be sensible
If I am listening I am asking questions
Being receptive and being a skeptic
Searching and checking
So understandings can be perfected
Any information I swallow whole
Will choke and stifle analysis that's critical
To my genius creative genetic potential
Keeping my intelligence at the superficial
By listening for agreement or dissension
Rather than listening for expansion extension
Listening hones abilities for the next transition
Opens consciousness to dimensions
If I stop listening, I will stop growing

When trying to know without listening
And not ensuring I get nutrition and rest
Messages are blocked by weak process, noise and busyness
Logic pieces are a scattered mess in levels of consciousness
Peace and happiness avoid these places to live or visit

Listening requires communing with nature
Because listening with Creation is self-study
Comparing notes with matching systems

Don't Let “Research” Scare You Or Fool You
Unity Consciousness #771

.

Research does not mean, perform a massive search of information and once that's completed, you then have complete understanding of all information encountered and have it all sorted out and have it all fit harmoniously into all other information currently possessed and then at the end of such a humongous study project, you're finished trying to understand anything more on the subject, therefore the sensing abilities of mind, spirit, emotion and body can be closed for life. against gaining more understanding on topics already researched.

Search Comes Before Research

In order to re-search, a person must first search.
The good news is, you have already searched for the things you need to understand – however briefly – you have searched.
That search may have consisted of listening to and following the first source of information you encountered on the subject.

More good news is that research never involves starting from zero or from scratch.
You already have a basis of information and point of comparison.
By searching, you already complete part of the process of re-searching.

Truth is, you are continuously searching and researching.
In order to perform any task, your cells must search and research for information that instructs them how to perform the task. Even when it's a task you perform all the time, cells must still re-search and retrieve information. It happens quickly. You are searching and researching information all the time from the world inside and outside of self.

In other words, searching and re-searching is as normal and as frequent as lungs breathing and heart pumping.
There is no need to be scared of the word “research.”
You already know how to do it.
You've been doing it all your life and are doing it right now.

Just become more conscious of the search and research process taking place inside you.

Search & Research Is Not All There Is To It

First, search, then thought process the information, and then mix in more living, learning and researching and more thought processing.

What must be properly understood is that neither search nor research is anything magical, mysterious, hard or that requires expertise certified to be expertise by humans.
Both search and research simply mean to “seek and gather information.”
Anybody can gather information.
You have already been promised that if you seek you shall find.
This is why you must not be scared to search and research.
This is why you must not be fooled that search and research is all there is to it.

Information gathered must be continuously processed through a variety of ways, not just as a mental exercise but through all the ways that living takes place. In doing so, you are taking steps along the path of understanding.

So now you know, research takes place in stages over a period of time. Those stages are steps. The time period is for the rest of your life – not just your physical life, but your spiritual life.
Research cannot be completed in one physical lifetime – that's part of the reason why life is a continuous spiritual journey.

Re-Search Is Self-Education And Self-Study

To search and research and do all the things that go with them is to grow to know yourself.

Understand this clearly: Even if you think you are in a good place in any way in any area of life, the moment you stop searching and researching and doing all the things that go with them, is the same moment you begin to move away from being in a good place.
History, both past and present is overflowing with examples of this.

The more you search and research the purpose of Creation (you), the more you will recognize that the whole design, that you as a person is based on, is the result of search and research of the Creator's spirit as understanding has been gained and transformations of spirit and matter have taken place.
In other words, the Creator is continuously performing search and research and all else that comes with it. You are the latest result of that process. In the same manner, via the same process, so also do you evolve into becoming one understanding as the Creator.
Search and research are part of the process of salvation – the self-redemption of understandings.

Fear Impacts Thought Processes | Poem

by Ancestors through Usiku

Fear mutates into multiple terrors
Complicates every move you do and don't make
Duplicates, magnifies and compounds logic errors
Research leads to understanding
Causing fear and what fools, to dissipate

Silver Spoons, Libra & Digging Your Genetic Library
Unity Consciousness #697

.

Your genetics are a library – a storehouse of information accumulated over many years. The accumulation of the information in your genetics started long before you were created into this dimension through the Heaven of the female womb. This information includes logic entries your Ancestors possessed. Your genetics are your inheritance passed on to you.

What The Word Library Means

I suspect it comes from the word Libra because Libra means balance. (1)
Your genetic library is a place of balance because it contains enough information to restore your logic to balance.
Your genetic library contains information that calibrates you to think in sync with Ecosystem logic.

Maturing in understandings helps you recalibrate more and more which allows more and more access to your genetic library. (UC#696)

Keep Revisiting & Researching Your Genetic Library

You already do anyway. That's how you are able to function and do anything and everything you do.
You just need to become aware that there's a lot more in your library than what you put in there and more than what has taken place since your were 'born” and more than what has taken place in the past 6,000 years or 20,000 years.
Your genetic library goes way back.

You must ask yourself questions so your spirit energy can start searching the records stored inside you. Ask and keep asking by posing the same question in different ways and from different perspectives.

As you continue with this process of getting nutrition from understanding and as you get more nutrition physically and as you recalibrate, you will be adding momentum to the process of becoming one with the Creator. You will be working out your salvation. You will begin to experience different levels of awareness and ways of knowing, thus creating the conditions for a special holdings section to be added to your genetic library.

You must search your genetic library with no less the fervency of those digging for resources to sell to you. You have something far better than gold and diamonds and oil and so on.
You have information in your genetics that is deep below the surface genetics you are currently using. This information helps you put your genetic potential to its highest use.
Be certain to understand how your mind and genetic library works.
Because your mind has been relying on the same logic entries, when you ask questions, these often relied upon logic entries will come up first in your search results. Dig deeper.
Why do you need to be born with a silver spoon in your mouth when you are born with a genetic library throughout?

Ancestors Are Calling Through Genealogy Lineage
Ways Of Knowing
Unity Consciousness #140

.

Being an “old soul" or being "wise beyond our years," is evidence of Ancestors descending and ascending through us. We are all old souls. We are supposed to be wise beyond our years. This is the basis of evolution, i.e., ascension through the chakras.

DNA contains the thoughts of our ancestors. DNA contains our thoughts. We are already together with our Ancestors. We are just not acknowledging them.

Of course our Ancestors are a way of knowing. Learning from Ancestors is the very basis of wisdom and intuition. Wisdom and intuition are not acquired in one lifetime. Wisdom is the awareness and application of what has already been learned in previous lifetimes. Intuition is instantaneous wisdom.


Ancestors are calling. Ancestors are our genes. The lineage of our Ancestors is our gene analogy, thus genealogy. Genes, DNA and genetics are metaphors for Ancestors. Each time these words are used, we are talking about the Ancestors.

Genetics Guide Us Among Ways Of Going

Ancestors are calling us to trace our genetics. We must trace the branch lines to the trunk then to the roots.

Why?

Genetics are the operating instructions inside cells, inside us. If we really want to know what to do and who to listen to, we must reconnect and strengthen our relationship with our Ancestors.

We must learn as much as possible about our Ancestors and the history of the times when they were physically here. As we learn and accept them for who they were - good, bad or otherwise - we unlock and unleash this powerful way of knowing. We must stop listening to those whose ability to access this power is limited.

There are tons of genealogy articles and places to find our Ancestors for free. The rest can be obtained through local, county and state libraries. Courthouses do not need to be the first places to go.

Take The Next Logical Step

Begin to compile any and all information on Ancestors. This includes things such as full names, shortened names used, nicknames, dates, places (city, county, state, country), stories, bits and pieces, births, marriages, deaths, cemeteries, occupations, likes, dislikes, remembrances, pictures, maps, wills, deeds, newspaper articles, etc.

Copy, print and record the source of all information. Start with yourself, your parents, your brothers and sisters, do the same for each parent and each grand parent and so on. Although parents and grandparents are main links, all information and people connected to them or have knowledge of them are important. Do the best you can and listen to the Ancestors calling within to tell you how to also find them without. Also follow paths of interest. This interest is likely Ancestor guidance. You will find information in bits and pieces and bunches. When one trail seems cold, follow another. Your research of reconnection and recollection is going to connect with others who are doing the same thing. It never has and never will be all up to one or a few.

Basic Process Of Understanding More Of Anything & Everything
Unity Consciousness #75

Basic Process

1. Read* the article. Read with the following context in mind so what you seek you will find: All things have multiple purposes and multiple interrelationships.
2. Read additional times for additional understanding. Repetition is one of the fundamental keys.
3. Ask questions of information related to things you don't know and know. Write questions down and search for answers using basic information research.
4. Look up words, places, definitions and phrases.
5. Follow links in the article and at the bottom.
6. Search keywords, labels and tags when provided and guided.
7. Search footnote references.
8. Search the site and cast into the wider internet. As a general rule, when searching for anything, use different combinations, spellings, tenses and synonyms of words.
9. Interrelate other processes simultaneously.

Other Processes & Contexts

Example-Based Definitions | Open-minded, Closed-Minded
Understanding Digesting Information
Thought Process Definition & Example
Quick Decisions & Definitions | Choices & Options Never Equal
Stupid Behavior | Doing Something About It | Cleaning Up Mistakes, Adopting A Universe
Inherited Self-Esteem Hand-Me-Downs, Habits & Peer Pressure Context
All Ways To Communicate Begin With Definition & Context
Natural World Context & Female Force
Overall History Context
Key Definitions | What Is Science? Who Are Scientists?
Culture Explains & Education Teaches Which Lives Matter | Definition
Maat & Rights Of Creation

All is process. ”Follow the process listening lays forth." This basic process will lead to more understanding of anything and everything – eventually and sooner.

*This article also applies to other methods of acquiring information such as listening, observing, etc.

Knowledge Is Salvation | Unity Consciousness #28
Africans Must Study To Win The Great War Against Racism

What Is Study?

Study is mental food and other forms of nutrition.

Study is whatever is done that improves knowledge of self. It is many activities such as learning genealogy and biographies, conversations, communing, experimenting, introspection, listening, meditating, observing, searching, practicing, questioning, reading, re-searching, reflection, remembering, trying, watching, and more.

Study IS NOT about becoming a historian and remembering a bunch of names, dates and events. Study is for the purpose of understanding. Understanding helps us contruct lives using relationships that match the African way of thinking.

More Reasons To Study

1. Mother Destiny is calling us to Greatness. Through study we answer the spirit's call.

2. To know what must be done in general (what every African must do) and also to know what must be done specifically (what each person's assignments are).

3. We cannot see truth through the lenses of a lie.* Because we have been miseducated, we have been taught lies. It is not possible to do #2 above if our thinking is based on lies.

4. If we want to change our lives, we must change the information we use to guide our thinking. Through study, we give our minds the knowledge it needs and craves. Then our thought process will function on our behalf; therefore, so will our behaviors.
Studying is one of several ways to get mental, spiritual, emotional and physical nutrition and medicine that will help feed our knowledge of self and sense of self and sense of self-esteem that will reorient and rebalance our psyche.

5. Understanding implies studying. If we say we understand something, yet have not studied, we only have someone else's understanding. When we operate based on another person's understanding, it is only possible to believe something. It is not possible to know it.
Belief is a blind choice, which is a guess, because it is absent of understanding. No amount of faith or emotion can transform a lack of understanding into understanding. Study must inform it in order to transform it. Likewise, fear is not a good reason to remain foolish but fear is a good indicator stupidity will eventually develop.

6. Study is each person's responsibility. By fulfilling this responsibility, the Rights Of Creation become realized.

7. Everything we need to know has already been told to us by our ancestors. It is in many forms in our possession and within reach. The African worldview is the way to understanding the way Africans speak and the key to understanding secrets we'd rather not keep.

8. To those who think they know enough to live by: Knowledge needs more knowledge in order to stay fresh, active and growing within and without. In other words, knowledge is the nutrition of knowledge. If knowledge is not being increased, knowledge will decrease.

9. Through study we will be able to know how to adjust what is already being done. Through study we will know what connections to make and what connections to break.

10. Through study, we clear up contradictions. Just because something is right or wrong in society doesn't mean it is right or wrong for us. Racism is right and we know that's wrong. It is wrong to teach truth about history and we know that couldn't be right. Through study, we learn to adjust our value system until it aligns with who we are before we became sick following the ways of the wicked.

Without study, a person who believes or disbelieves can only reach the decision through the use of substitute proof for the truth. We come to know truth through study.

11. Through study, consciousness reawakens. When we wake up, we stop sleeping on the job and the work that must be done will get done straightaway.

12. Study of self is a co-catalyst that move awareness from thinking everything's okay and “I don't need to change” to an honest self-assessment that allows us to at least be able to see the need for self-correction. Self-study does not guarantee we will take additional steps to carry out self-correction but self-study is necessary before correction at the fundamental level can take place.

Knowledge Is Salvation

Knowledge transforms limitation into liberation.

To be “saved” means to be “liberated” from something.*

Some say, to be saved is to be liberated from the sting of sin, the second death. To be saved in African terms means increasing knowledge of self which liberates consciousness from the stagnation of incompleteness (not becoming more unified with creation). This is “sin” to whoever knows to do it but chooses not to. Why? Choosing not to become more unified with creation is to not move closer to the Creator. This denies the Creator the opportunity to experience the triumph of the higher self through us. It is we, who make the world better, by becoming better. This occurs as we transform the limitation of the lower self into the liberation of the higher self.

Through study, we work ourselves (singular) out of our situation (singular). Therefore, we liberate ourselves. Therefore, through study, we work out our own salvation. How? Knowledge changes thinking which changes behavior. Knowledge of self is knowledge of the Creator which automatically aligns behavior with the Creator's. Behavior that matches the Creator's is salvation.


Africans must study. The Creator is studying and so must we. We must study to show ourselves approved and worthy of the Creator's genes that are in us. These genes are the source of genius. It is the destiny of greatness to all who answer the call. Through us, the power and glory of the Creator will once again be made known to all, on Earth, as it is in Heaven.

Thought Process Definition & Example | Unity Consciousness #16

In order to think - - thoughts must process. There must be a thought process and a thought processor.

Thought Processors

We compare words to food and say, “food for thought.” because processing food is similar to processing words. See, ”Understanding Digesting Information.”

The main processor humans use today is the mental processor. We also have physical, emotional and spiritual thought processors. All four of these processors are intertwined and inseparable in the brain and in every cell.

Thought Processes

Not only do most of us use the mental processor as our main processor, we also have one main thought process. This process is a set of steps we use as our “go to” thought process when thinking about something consciously or not. This process has already been setup (designed, installed, programmed, and set as default) in our memory. It is this main thought process we use most often to make decisions. From this thought process we develop numerous variations to deal with different situations and topics.

Deeper Into Thoughts

Because we have been miseducated (disconnected), we must go back and fetch it (the proper education) and get reconnected.

We must reconnect to thought processes that lead to all things natural, thus universal.

If we are going to progress (move towards oneness), our thoughts must contribute to this process. Our thoughts are the guiding force of our free will. We cannot continue to use our thoughts to move towards individuality that is disconnected communally.

The thought process below will help us recognize adjustments to make. It is helpful to take notes to free up mental workspace. Writing stuff down makes it easier to start and stop this process without forgetting.

Thought Process Example

1. Identify Reasons for going through the thought process such as “Is this relationship healthy?”
2. Identify Responses that will result from the decision to be made. “Will I do something?” or “Will I do nothing?” For example, if the relationship is not healthy I will leave, if it is healthy I will stay.
3. Identify Results desired such as “I want to know myself, keep growing into myself, give love, receive love, get married and not lose who I am intended to be.”
4. Research external information. Here are some tips.
5. Recall internal information already possessed.
6. Reflect on the information from a mental viewpoint.
7. Reflect on the information from physical, emotional and spiritual viewpoints.
8. Relax. Ask one question such as “What should I do?” or “What is my core being telling me?” then get quiet and meditate on the results desired in Step 3.
9. Re-search what's unclear, incorporate clarity gained and rewrite answers to Steps 1-3 if needed.
10. Rest and nutrition are essential to this process. Stop consciously thinking about the information. Do other things.
11. Re-search what's unclear, incorporate clarity gained and rewrite answers to Steps 1-3 if needed.
12. Record conclusions arrived at mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
13. Rate each conclusion by assigning different weights based on importance (value system), then combine and blend.
14. Repeat any of the steps above as necessary.
15. Review and test conclusions by questioning information and assumptions the conclusions are based on.
16. Review all steps to this point if questionable sources or assumptions are found hiding in thoughts.
17. Reach a decision.
18. Remain as is for at least 3 days if possible and don't consciously try to figure anything out in regards to the pending decision.
19. Review and test the decision by talking through “what if” scenarios.
20. Repeat any of the steps above as necessary. If no changes, implement the decision.
21. Revisit the decision as experience is gained. Compare to results desired.
22. Revise thought process as necessary and recheck all major, life-affecting decisions.


Overall, we must not try to guide the thought process, instead, let it guide us. It is our process isn't it? This is why we must design our own thought processes, put them into place and allow them to automatically assist us, behind the scenes, most of the time, the way all good, sound, fundamental thought processes do. This will require practice.

If our goal is to seek truth, we will not try to overrule the conclusions reached because we don't like what we've come up with. We must allow the evidence to speak for itself to an open-mind. If we don't like what the evidence reveals, it's a good thing to go back through the process and double check ourselves. After a few times of coming up with the same conclusions, it is what it is. The alternative is to skip the thought process and just make decisions Willie-silly.

Put at least one decision through this process. Since this path will be different from the main one currently in use, could that change the decision slightly, a lot or not at all?
Why? Why not?

Simple Nutrition Notes | Consider The Source Of Information
Food Fight #62

The Government Agency Gang

From experience, we know government agencies such as the FDA, USDA, EPA, CDC and more, have no intentions or capabilities to protect the environment from harm. Therefore, these citizens in the minority have no intentions or capabilities, in the true sense of the word, to help the majority of citizens.

The FDA does not use the words “nutrient” or “nutrition” in its definition of food for humans. Even so, this does not stop the FDA from using the word “nutrition” liberally in all other places.

The terms “natural” and “organic” have been bastardized by government and industry with the full consent of the people. The presence of these terms are no more a guarantee of healthier food than without them. The “certified organic” law allows the food system to use toxins. It allows unhealthy things and it's still okay to call it natural.

To add to their foolishness, they have made it is illegal for anyone to use the terms “natural” or “organic” without government approval. Unless small farmers jump the hoops of paperwork and pay the fees, Farmer's Markets sellers can't call their food natural or organic without risking legal trouble.

Wax made from beef fat or petroleum is allowed on fruit/vegetables. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) Gas is allowed to be sprayed on food.

The article, ”Nutrition Labeling Inconsistencies, FDA & USDA Breaking The Law Consistently,” was sent to dozens of politicians, the White House, consumer & environmental groups, nutrition sites, natural sites and even a supposedly objective news source and received no response.

Through study and critical analysis of news reports, it is easy to see that dieticians, scientists, universities and media are all part of the misinformation agenda of Human Racism White Supremacy. The CDC's credibility has been questionable for a long time. For example, the CDC states, they can't be sure if natural Vitamin B from food is better than the man-made derivative of Vitamin B in pill form.

Also for example, since cancer is a disease, it would seem likely that the Center For Disease Control would at least try to control preventable disease. Yet, cancer and other complications from cigarette smoking remains the leading cause of preventable death in the United States. This does not sound like an agency or government or people who are centered on controlling or stopping this disease. I'm sure stopping the millions spent on this disease would cost too much.

Read this CDC Press Release and you will encounter double and triple speak. Obesity is on the rise, despite all the media hype that America is in health conscious mode, by going green, sustainable, raising chickens, etc. “About 32 million more Americans will become obese by 2030” per the CDC.

All The Rest & More Of The Same

All these folks care about is their trinity – genetic survival, money and power. This includes all of the above and the philanthropists, the charitable ones, the media, scientists, universities and consumer groups. The majority are blindly or with eyes wide shut, supporting what harms those they purport to protect.

1. Bill Gates funds GMO crops for Africa
2. Sweet Corn, Neonicotinoids, Allergies, Informed Consent, Occupy Movement & Patriotism

These are but a few of the many sources of information, regardless of the topic, that are not to be trusted. Far too much information coming from these sources is presented as correct, fresh, natural, nutritious, safe and for the public's benefit when they are not.

Avoid being fooled by controversy.

Know Truth | A Child's Way To Grow, No Doubt About It

Truth holds up under scrutiny. Lie does not.

Process of Elimination – Investigation Of Lies

Truth can be known by simply exposing enough lies. Whatever discourages investigation and questions tends to be a lie. So I must ask questions and check out the replies until deeply satisfied.

Process of Confirmation – Investigation Of Truth

Truth welcomes and invites investigation and questions. Truth will not rest within me until I do enough investigation, research and questioning to verify it. Truth does not want me to accept it and have no reasonable basis why.

This is evident in the truth-seeking nature in children. This is a main reason they relentlessly ask “Why.” Children want to confirm the truth of their understanding down to the most fundamental level. They want to know so every building block of knowledge is secure within them. A child's default approach is not to grow into adulthood. No! Not at all! Rather, a child's default approach is to grow into knowledge of truth until self and all else are understood.

This is the way to grow. This is how to know truth. Become a child again in this sense.

If I have stopped asking for confirmation in this manner, I must already know all the truth there is to know.

If I seek truth a child's way, I will find truth – new truth and more of the same truth. Until I do, truth will keep confronting me by asking, “Are you sure I'm truth? How do you know? Tell me more than one way you know.”

Truth will supply several ways to support knowledge of it. Truth wants me to have no doubt about it.

A child's way to know truth is more fundamental than bibles and more fundamental than Africa.

What A Child Believes

Despite a child's tendency to ask more questions, a child is more likely to believe any answer. It's easy to get a child to believe in Kris Kringle, who should mingle, some form of God, (read more)

Google Alerts & Information Research

Automated Searching

Google Alerts is a research tool that allow users to set up and save search terms. The results are emailed periodically. Search terms may be edited. This is especially useful for topics of interest for self-study. Google Alerts should not be used to the exclusion of separate searches on Google, Bing and other search engines.

Go to Google Alerts.

Transforming Our Research View

Research is nothing fancy or hard. Research simply means to search, re-search and keep re-searching until satisfied information gathered is sufficient to satisfy the purpose for searching in the first place.

Research should always begin with a general idea of current thoughts on the subject and the major sources relied upon to create these thoughts.

Research means, after finding information, updating as needed, based on additional information. Often, research is not an end game. It is usually a “what is able to be determined at the moment” game. Learnderstand this: one of the fundamental universal principles of life & existence is change. All essential functions and energies that maintain life, including growth, require change.

Taking Research Personal

Research is a personal responsibility. It's not someone else's job to be a researcher and do all the studying, analyzing, figuring out and thinking and then tell us how to think, feel and act. This is dangerous in every single way. Even if we use this approach it is not a good idea to trust those whose worldview, value system and definitions are vastly different from ours because worldview, values and definitions matter in how information is approached, comprehended, reported in media and taught in schools.

Where Research Occurs

Life, experience, experimenting, practice, trying again and learning from mistakes is part of what research is. It is not research to make the same mistakes when a reasonable number of reasonable people have made the mistake and the information is available to learn from.

Research includes fact-checking, analyzing and critical thinking. Research includes considering information different, and sometimes even opposite, to what you want it to be, otherwise research becomes limited to what we already think and know. We must practice avoiding confirmation bias.

Researching is soul searching by tuning in to intuition and wisdom. This includes wisdom from conversations with humans and the rest of the natural world. Researching is watching videos or taking a class. Researching is effort applied towards learning and understanding.

Research is more than a head game, computer game or library game. It involves going to primary sources when possible. The natural world is a primary source. The spirit is a primary source.

Research involves the spiritual self and the study of the complete self. For this reason alone, researching is an ongoing, never-ending, personal growth & development daily event.

Understanding Digesting Information And So Continues The Meaning Of Life & Existence (Part 8h)

pineal gland Pineal Gland

Expecting Too Much Too Soon

Expecting understanding from information before taking in the information is like trying to get nutrition before eating. Expecting understanding without allowing time for digestion is the same as expecting to immediately get the full benefit of food as soon as it is swallowed.

It Takes Time for Digestion & Understanding

Digestion begins the moment food enters my mouth yet I cannot hold food in my mouth and expect complete digestion. Understanding begins the moment information enters my mind yet I cannot hold information in my temporary memory and expect complete understanding.

Food must enter my stomach and intestines, get broken down further, get absorbed into my bloodstream and then reach my cells. Information must reach other parts of my mind, get broken down further, get absorbed into my stream of consciousness and then reach my subconsciousness.

Once food reaches my cells, some of it needs to be broken down even further. It takes time for complete digestion.

Once information reaches the longer-term parts of my mind, some of it needs to be broken down even further. This happens with intuition and wisdom. It takes time for complete understanding.

Improving Understanding

As food passes through my digestive system, my body automatically releases enzymes to assist with digestion. Understanding also requires catalysts to help in the process of breaking down information.

Additional learning is a catalyst to help understand what has already been learned. See the expanding definition of understanding.

Melatonin from my pineal gland helps quiet my basic mind so the spiritual mind can get full access to the information. Melatonin helps the basic mind disengage and rest while the body is also resting, especially during sleep. This is why it is a natural inclination to say, “Let me sleep on it.” I am actually saying, “Let me take my basic mind off of it and allow my spiritual mind to also digest it and then inform my basic mind.” My spiritual mind should also be engaged and working simultaneously with my basic mind during waking hours. Since I am out of practice allowing this to happen, I must spend waking time in silence and stillness and communing in order to retrain myself to listen to my spirit. It often takes many many days of additional living for some decisions to become clear and information to be understood. During that time I must continue to learn.

Remembering My Spirit Capability

It would be inconsistent for a human to be created as a spirit being but not have any ability for spiritual reasoning and the ability to use the spiritual as a way of knowing. It is consistent for a human to be expected to be a human being spirit and also have the ability to always get understanding from spirit in order to always exist in a state of being.in accordance with Manifest Essence.

Related Proverbs:

Unlike opportunity that opens windows and knocks on doors, understanding beckons from inside out into the universal.
The only thing that prevents understanding is already knowing.

Related Quotes:


No need to worry sister; the spirit has an immune system of discernment that works with the stream of consciousness to fish out foreign substances. No need to worry brother; that which should not be absorbed will pass through like fiber but will aid the workings of the mind.

...there is still a continuous need for nutrients. Nutrients are still needed for growth, learning, development, sharpness, daily activities, metabolism, digestion and maintaining health.

Appreciation slows us down. It causes us to chew more and allows time to drift, reflect and absorb the life forces that are saturating our senses and capable of satiating our souls.

Vitamins, calories, fat, etc. are the minutia. Too much of this type of information has come between us and our spiritual intelligence when it comes to knowing what to eat.

Without hesitation he gave a very thorough explanation of the meaning he absorbed.

Each person understood in their own way
Appreciating, absorbing, appreciating.

...an increasing awareness, increases reality, and thus, increases understanding of meaning.

How Controversy Comes Of Age

Controversy comes of age when a topic has either of the following characteristics and is widely circulated:

1. Someone presents the complete or partially opposite view. For some reason, this creates doubt that is supposedly impossible to figure out. Doubt favors what is already being done.

2. One or more “expert” people somehow considered worthy of listening to, make statements that don't agree in part or in whole on a topic. This is usually accompanied by pieces of paper claiming testing, research and studies. This suggests objectivity. This creates uncertainty. Uncertainty favors more experts, more research and more money.

Treating a topic from an overriding perspective of controversy is like self-administering coercion. Believing something is a controversy predisposes us to believe things, against intuition and against reason. It makes us believe two alternatives have equal validity and therefore should be given equal consideration.

Treating a topic from an overriding perspective of controversy creates a midrange between truth and lies that expresses itself as “we don't know” or “we can't be sure” culture. This is a no man's land where no critical thinking or no spiritual listening takes place.

When a controversy is claimed to exist, it is being used as a tool to maintain that which is false or to get others to entertain that which is false. In the meantime, a few profit while many are harmed.

The word, “controversy” by itself does not imply drama nor does it mean a topic to avoid. Controversy simply means one viewpoint is different from another.

Sometimes differences are left alone as matters of personal choice while others are elevated to the level of dispute. Whether personal or not, some viewpoints are absolutely true or false. What makes controversy the counterproductive concept it is today is its emotional component that attaches us to the topic. Emotion tends to inhibit the chance for properly assessing alternatives. It tends to override the spirit mind. This excessive amount of emotion simply gets the blood racing and wants what it wants irrespective of personal and universal detriment.

Controversy comes of age when we don't.

Food Fight 14: Information Misinformation

Food Fight #14

I received some misinformation about fruit. Tainted truth and beliefs can interfere with our ability to win anything, including our food fight.

Email: If you eat fruit on an empty stomach, it will play a major role in detoxifying your system and supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.
My Thoughts: Eat fruit whenever. Eat any food before bedtime if it keeps away hunger. Lingering hunger is a greater threat to health and sleep than when we eat fruit.

Email: Once you've mastered the correct way of eating fruit, you have the secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.
My Thoughts: This plays into vanity and laziness for those seeking a quick fix when the simplest, safest way is food and activity.

Email: Eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice.
My Thoughts: I agree with this natural way.

Email: Drinking cold water after a meal causes cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
My Thoughts: What happens if we drink cold water before or during a meal? What about cold water-melon on an empty stomach? What about cold milk with cereal? Water is not what's killing most of us unless it has dangerous chemicals in it. Everyone should read the water quality report for their town and research the risks associated with those chemicals and decide if you think it's safe. For instance, fluoride in water might be a bigger threat than whether water is cold or warm.

I am not concerned about the temperature of my water. We gain greater health benefits by avoiding toxic relationships that suck the life out of and kill more of us. By the way, drinkable water flowing from mountain springs is cold.

Final Thoughts:
Where are the vegetables in this email? Being healthy depends on natural sensibilities. We don't need a Masters of Science Degree in Fruit Eating. If we complicate food, health, and nutrition, we ain't gonna do right for ourselves for long.

The diligent food fighter is neither a glutton, eating everything in sight, nor are they gullible, believing everything that sounds right. The food fight, just like most things, is a fight for our focus and thus, a fight for our entire lives.

Extra Practice: Here's another example of truths that attempt to gain our confidence and then quickly move us towards the untruths, Not So Slick Foolishness. Can you tell me just one of the several flashing warning signs in this message?
