Updated: The secret of being able to change, and be reborn with a higher frequency

The original of this article was published a year ago... I have added new insights today

The secret of my being able to change, and be reborn with a higher frequency, a higher vibration, is that I have been able to keep in check the societal imperative to care about other people more than I care about myself. And in addition to that, I have been able to admit to myself all the errors of my ways that I can see. So I don"t even want to look good to myself. I am willing to accept myself, warts and all... for all I am and for all I am lacking.

This comes with giving up the emotional impact of others view of me, of others opinion of me, of others praise or hate of me, and my opinion of me... especially when I make a mistake, a false step, or when I make a fool of myself.

This attachment to opinions needs to be actively given up: no epigenetic shift, no transformation, no energy remedy will make these opinions neutral: we do live in a society, and others opinion of you and your products determines your money: and your money determines whether you eat, be sheltered, have leisure time, and a lot more. And your own opinion about yourself will determine whether you are going to play fully... or shrink.

So opinions are important, but they are not important emotionally.

Fear is emotional. Careful, thoughtful pro-action is not.

One path to Self you may want to take

One of the capacities you want to cultivate is the capacity of being in awe. Awestruck, awe-inspired.

Why? Because unless you can be moved on the inside, you are dead and I can"t help you... nobody can.

Unless you can attain to a certain level of awe, you are not going to be able to have a purpose to your life, or love, or rise above the pedestrian existence of the current humanity.

And no, I am not going to turn it on for you, please don"t ask.

This is a project you need to invent for yourself, and try to get in the state of awe. Inspiring stories, inspiring books, inspiring people, inspiring movies.

Awe is being present to the beyond... the beyond of the level where you are, the beyond of the knowable universe... from where all power comes.

5 Characteristics Of Grit -- How Many Do You Have?

Reprinted from Forbes... ((by Margaret M. Perlis I write about Excellence in practice, people, places & product.))

Recently some close friends visited, both of whom have worked in education with adolescents for over 40 years. We were talking about students in general and when I asked what has changed with regards to the character of kids, in unison they said “grit” – or more specifically, lack thereof. There seems to be growing concern among teachers that kids these days are growing soft.

When I took a deeper dive, I found that what my friends have been observing in-the-field, researchers have been measuring in the lab. The role grit plays in success has become a topic du jour, spearheaded by Angela Duckworth, who was catapulted to the forefront of the field after delivering a TED talk which has since been viewed well over a  million times.

The only spiritual practice that raises your vibration, and can take you all the way

If you live a fragmented life... your life is full of wanting to, having to, needing to and should.

The common thread that can unify your life, the different areas, is who you are.

But if you don"t know who you are, then you consider yourself the different roles you play in different circumstances, with different people... and there is no YOU to unify your life.

Life is horrible for a person like that. Disease settles in the space between what is real and what is pretended. The inner tension uses up all the energy that could be used for life, for the immune system to kill the nasties, invaders, viruses, cancer cells, toxins.

Become an Expanding human being aka living an interesting life

I am reading one of my all time favorite books. Again. I was guided to read it again. As I have been guided to watch everything I watch, read everything I read.

Sometimes the key to the insight is on page 800 of a book, or in episode 60 of a Netflix series.

The tricks are: trust, don"t be in a hurry, don"t expect the "key" to be a direct answer, and once you have what you were needing, acknowledge it.

This book is full of clues for me. Clues for why you are living a life of quiet desperation, why you don"t live an interesting life.

The book is about a little girl who gets an interactive smart book, to teach her life. ((Neal Stephenson: The Diamond Age, in my subscribers only area in pdf, kindle, and epub format.))

She is four years old when she gets the book.

It takes tweaking to get things right... including your diet

I find that most people want to be mindless... Get a solution and never look again, never think again.

Tai calls this: an experiment run too long.

But for most people experiments are non-existent. They want to live their lives as puppies or kitties... not as humans.

Why is that? you ask... whether you are one of "most people" or one of the few who are individuals.

To answer that why question,

You may look at how you were brought up.
You may look at how you were educated to be sheep.
You may look at that as character defect.
You may blame this or that...

The truth is simpler and more sinister than any of those you have already thought of.

Netflix addiction

Netflix is great. The shows are what the shows are.

And Netflix, or actually the shows can become addictive.

I watch Netflix almost every day. A number of shows start out OK, but turn addictive around season 4.

You notice that you became addicted if you are craving it, thinking about it, wishing it were already that time of the say when you can watch it.

The shows became addictive, according to what I"ve seen, when there is plot change that turns the show into more of a soap opera than independent episodes.

Soap operas were always addictive. But starting a show as a soap opera is counter productive: intelligent people aren"t attracted, off the cuff, to inane twists and turns of the plot.

Why getting well is so difficult for us, people without a Self

There is never a better time to experience what you experience, than right when you experience it.

This morning I was hit with a strong feeling of despair, loneliness.

I didn"t have time to hang out with it, I was in the middle of something. I wanted to shoo it away, and I also wanted to indulge in it.

But then I decided to just feel it, acknowledge it, and let it go. I paid attention to what it said... nodded, wept a little, and let it go.

Is this familiar to you? I didn"t think so. You don"t know who you are, and you don"t want to find out.
There are many reasons you don"t know yourself.
One of these reasons is that you resist your emotions.

Can you raise your IQ by getting healthy?

Lots of people are searching the internet for ways to get smarter.

All the programs, and all the supplements that are out there are symptomatic treatment... and not worth a lot.

As I am going through my own program, and I am a totally aware person, and can muscle test and get answers right away... I am a testing laboratory.

I have been noticing brain or cognitive function symptoms the past two days: as if I were disoriented... it feels now every day that it"s Sunday... lol.

Eat right, live right for your type... How to regain your health and vitality in a few weeks time

You want more out of life...

You want to raise your vibration... maybe that"s the way to attract love, money, happiness to your life.

But you don"t have enough energy to do the work that would raise your vibration...

You are stuck between a rock and a hard place...


We each want to be unique, special, one of a kind. At the same time we want to be able to pigeonhole ourselves, so we can know how we are, so we can know what to eat, or what to pursue in life.

Religion, smart Jews, and being a good person... what do spiritual capacities have to do with it?

This article is politically incorrect, and somewhat philosophical...

Not up for it? Spare yourself frustration, and don"t read it.

OK... now that only the eleven or so readers that are up for it remain reading, I can be blunt, and use some six letter words... lol.

Of course, this is, at least partially tongue in cheek...

OK, I am going to, first talk about a new insight I have on religion, then about Jews, capacities, genetically smarter... and other politically incorrect subjects that are keeping me busy pondering today.

How do you use the three levels of value in your "real" life to fall in love with yourself?

How do you use the three levels of value in your "real" life to fall in love with yourself?

The article asking: where do you look to define your value got a lot of "hits" and comments.

Reading the answers I saw that some fundamental distinctions are missing, in spite of the fact that I have written about all of those before, on this blog.

So after reading the article about the three levels of value, you probably start to see a little bit the difference how the different levels of value change what assessment you make, how your appraisal, evaluation, estimation, measurement, judgment will be, looking from that level.

So let"s look a little deeper and see with examples how that looks.

Where you are speaking from is as important as what kind of value you are judging.

Why should you believe me? Why should you learn from me?

I have been a spiritual, raise-your-vibration teacher for a while... and when someone asked what qualified me to teach, I could say that the fact that I did it myself, and went from a vibration of 185 to 930, consciously and with my eyes open.

Now, having done that is fine and dandy... but can I teach it? Good question.

But let"s look at another area: health.

At some point I got really clear that unless you have energy to do the work, unless you have coherence to do the work, unless you are well enough... I can"t help you much.

But I had a problem, an integrity issue: I myself wasn"t well enough to prove to you that I know what I am talking about when it comes to becoming healthy.

How to get things done, even if you don"t quite know what you need to do?

This used to happen to me all the time: I"d get an email with a link. I"d go to the page, I"d love the results the guy is having, I"d want it. I"d buy it... then... I can"t use it. Even the tutorial videos don"t help: I lost my "vision."

How come we buy things. While we watch the sales video, we feel clear about our need to have this, we feel clear about how it"s going to fit into what we are already doing, we feel clear about what to do.

Then the magic moment comes: we are sitting in front of the product, and we have no idea about any of that.

I hear that only one to two percent of buyers, on average, use the products they bought. Whether it is a software, a marketing method, a workout regimen, the Water Energizer®, a meditation program, a spiritual practice... whatever it is, the results are the same.

What happened? They nodded.

Your health number... thoughts from the starting point tests I"ve done

Hippocrates said: food will be your medicine.

Let"s look at that statement from my experience with myself, and with my clients.

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.

– attributed to Hippocrates

Lay people (you) jump into conclusions... and jump from one superfood to the next, from one fad to the next, from one magic bullet to the next.

Modern (ineffective) medicine attacks this statement.
Energy medicine attacks this statement.

The wider the availability of food, the less healthy people become

Every plant is toxic. Every animal is toxic. To one degree or other.

The difference between plants and other plants, from your point of view, is what plant your body can use without much harm, because your body has evolved to handle the toxins in the plant.

Just like high altitudes are deadly for some people, and natural for others, for example the Tibetans, your body can handle some things and can"t handle others.

It takes thousands years of exposure to develop the ability to eat one food and be well, even though it"s toxic.

But no matter what, you"ll always pay the price...

What is health?

A German who escaped just before all the Jews were hoarded into concentration camps in Germany, came to the United States.

His name was Robert Hartman.

His experience with evil uniquely qualified him to set out to deal with the age long question: what is evil, what is good?

He took on himself to define good... the strait and narrow. Many philosophers failed in that: after all the strait and narrow is delineated by the land that encloses it, not by itself...

But he succeeded.

Build your house on rock: Starting from what is, instead of a delusion

My disastrous conversation with the zealous Christian on the other end of the phone opened my eye to something I could not see clearly before.

What I saw is where religion, the popularized version, and where modern spiritual teacherdom overlap and join forces to dupe you.

Before I start:

does your experience of yourself match these principles:
--you are already perfect.
--You are already divine, you just don"t know it.

The importance of knowing what you want

Knowing what you want to achieve, is one thing that is missing in you. Another name for that is called "mental representation" of what you want to achieve.

Mental representation is a detailed picture, so detailed and so tangible, that you can pinpoint where reality is deviating from it... and how.

Mental representation is a spiritual capacity that sits squarely on a lot of other spiritual capacities, so obviously it is not part of the first seven most people have, not even part of the first 13, many professionals have, not even part of the first 20, that doctors have. And, believe it or not, it is not even part of the first 30, that most millionaires, billionaires have.

Bill Gates doesn"t have it. Warren Buffet has it.

What determines how you and your life turn out?

What is the mechanism of the machine that you are, that is used to define your actions, your moods, your attitude?

As I said in a few previous articles, your actions, your thoughts, your moods, your attitudes will be correlated with what you see.

The two sides:

what you see, or the way the world occurs to you

your actions, your thoughts, your moods, your attitudes: your world




the two sides are like the front of the hand and the back of the hand, connected, inseparable, but yet distinct.
