Options and Risks in Widening the Consciousness Using Various Methods

1
00:00:01,500 --> 00:00:04,600
There are numerous ways to
widen, one's Consciousness, to

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,300
begin to incorporate the
Viewpoint and direction of

3
00:00:08,300 --> 00:00:11,400
others.
Some of these methods are easier

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,200
than others.
In that they utilize a mood or

5
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,500
feeling that is evoked from a
natural environment.

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,900
Such as the Starry Sky, the
ocean, a wide view from a

7
00:00:23,908 --> 00:00:28,400
Mountaintop Etc.
These methods also have the

8
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,900
advantage of being safer in
various ways as they do not try

9
00:00:32,900 --> 00:00:35,200
to directly enter and assume
Ali.

10
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,800
The energies or viewpoints of
other individuals who in some

11
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,900
cases, may be hostile to the
thoughts and emotional process

12
00:00:43,900 --> 00:00:48,200
of the Seeker.
Similarly when one enters the

13
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,500
vital playing through what may
be called, an out-of-body or

14
00:00:51,500 --> 00:00:54,900
astral plane.
Experienced caution must be

15
00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:59,200
exercised as the protection
afforded by the physical body

16
00:00:59,300 --> 00:01:04,000
and the individuality is gone
and forces with dramatically

17
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,200
different, agendas can exercise
power on one's Consciousness

18
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,300
there.
Entering directly into an

19
00:01:11,300 --> 00:01:15,800
individual's Consciousness, has
similarities to this type of

20
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,100
event.
That is not to say that there

21
00:01:19,100 --> 00:01:22,900
are not times and places where
it becomes useful with due

22
00:01:22,900 --> 00:01:27,900
caution to widen oneself to
incorporate the understanding

23
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:32,400
and view of another party.
The Seeker with a strong

24
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:38,400
aspiration and sense of clear
will to progress may be able to

25
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,700
withstand the pressures involved
in such an action. and some

26
00:01:42,700 --> 00:01:46,700
actually seem to be suited for
this as part of the larger

27
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:50,300
direction of the manifestation
to bring about a higher

28
00:01:50,300 --> 00:01:55,800
synthesis and Harmony of
opposing viewpoints The mother

29
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,900
observes quote, there is a way
also, by trying to identify

30
00:02:00,900 --> 00:02:03,000
yourself with all things upon
Earth.

31
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,000
For example, when you have a
small narrow vision of something

32
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,600
and are hurt by others, vision,
and point of view, you must

33
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,500
begin by shifting your
Consciousness, try to put it in

34
00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:19,100
others and try gradually to
identify yourself, with all the

35
00:02:19,100 --> 00:02:21,400
different ways of thinking, of
all others.

36
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:25,800
This is a little more.
How shall I put it Dangerous

37
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,300
because to identify oneself with
the thought and will of others

38
00:02:30,300 --> 00:02:35,300
means to identify oneself with a
heap of stupidities mother,

39
00:02:35,300 --> 00:02:39,900
laughs and bad wills.
And this may bring consequences

40
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:45,000
which are not very good, but
still some people do this more

41
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,100
easily.
For instance, when they are in

42
00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:50,800
disagreement with someone, in
order to widen their

43
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,900
Consciousness, they try to put
themselves in the place of the

44
00:02:55,100 --> 00:02:58,900
other and see the thing not from
their own point of view.

45
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,600
But from the point of view of
the other, this widens the

46
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,800
Consciousness though, not as
much as by the first ways, I

47
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,500
spoke about which are quite
innocent, they don't, do you any

48
00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:17,000
harm, they do you much good,
they make you very peaceful and
