constant awareness, seeing the 'motion' of the mind

[Plenum]

as most of you know, I have studied the archetypes for many years.

and more recently, I have delved into the energy system, and the 7 chakras with their 7 sublevels.

combining these two systems (or having access to both simultaneously) offers this insanely detailed ability to be 'aware' of the mind, and what it is up to. I can almost read it like a computer printout, or twitter feed, to see what is going on.

the mind has an architechture, of which Ra was so kind to reveal to us.

91.37 Ra: I am Ra. This is a fairly adequate statement. The term “efficient” might also fruitfully be replaced by the term “undistorted.” The archetypical mind, when penetrated lucidly, is a blueprint of the builded structure of all energy expenditures and all seeking, without distortion. This, as a resource within the deep mind, is of great potential aid to the adept.

and when you combine it with the mind interfacing with the body, and the mind interfacing with the spirit (the energy centres that is), this offers a very broad overview of the stimuli and catalyst that moves through us at any or all times.

"51.5 The mind complex has a relationship to the spirit and body complexes which is not fixed. Thus blockages may occur betwixt spirit and mind, or body and mind, upon many different levels. We reiterate that each energy center has seven sub-colors, let us say, for convenience. Thus spiritual/mental blockages combined with mental/bodily blockages may affect each of the energy centers in several differing ways. Thus you may see the subtle nature of the balancing and evolutionary process."

when these mechanisms are brought into conscious awareness, one has an x-ray vision over the mind; it is not unlike an anatomy textbook that shows the relationships and connections of the organs, sinews, and muscles of the human body. Knowing the anatomy of the body helps you understand what a particular pain might mean, and that a pain in the chest means 'this' rather than 'that'. It is a tremendous aid to self-diagnosis.

so yeah, my thanks again to Ra for bringing this information to us. It is a textbook for self-evolution, self-understanding, and self-acceptance.

many thanks, namaste,

Got any recent personal examples? Interested to see your methodology.

I know personally I try to keep mine nice and simple no over analysing like I used to. E.g recent example. Have had a bit of a conflict with my close friend, we both share a very similar load of catalyst but almost in an opposite way, him being a close friend since I was 7 and seeing him numerous times in dreams which I feel where us together in different incarnations means whenever an issue arises with him I know to look for ways in which I can change my perspective but also ways in which I can help serve him when he asks for it which I have felt some of these conflicts are.

A recent issue has been honesty, it seams to be popping up regularly between us. Not so much the honesty of me to him but more honesty towards others. I will tell the truth even when he doesn't and wanted me to lie as well. So it happened last night he didn't want some of our other friends to know about something and had told me about it earlier, I told him I'am not going to lie there's no point it will just create problems and there is no reason to really but I said I wouldn't mention it if they didn't ask. So of-course they ended up asking me about it that night when we where all together and so I told them.

From that point I felt the friction in my mind, I could see my friend change in mood because of that but I resisted the urge to think about seperation and just relfected on how what I did was a true expression of my will and basically all the other noise that would and has been going on in my head distorting the situation turning me more against either my friend or myself wasn't there.

I was calm and cool and recognised the catalyst and both of our distortions and it simply went away. My friend was back in a better mood sooner rather then later and seamed to accept that I had to tell them. Of course this was all in combination with other queues, felt tightness in my body when it happened then eventually felt nice and loose and freely flowing when the friction had past. My I-Ching reading earlier that day pretty much predicted it so I was quite well prepared.

hey, thanks for sharing your story Sagt. nice one. it's great to be self-aware on that level, like you've attained.

I can only say that the motion of the mind can best be likened to the motion of water in a series of pipes. When the water gets blocked or clogged on some point (the signal of catalyst), having the system of the archetypes and the knowledge of the 49 levels of the energy centres allows one to pinpoint the exact place where the catalyst or misunderstanding is.

having this very fast diagnosis means that one can start addressing the problem straight away, rather than having a vague sense that something is up, or not being comfortable in a situation etc.

the diagnosis is able to happen because of the familiarity with the system and knowing what the patterns are 'like' when they are moving freely and unrestricted.

of course, everyone has their own system (like you do), but I have found this one to be particular exact and rigourous for me.

the end point, of course, is an increased understanding and acceptance after the processing of the blockage. If its been fully resolved, then that same 'blockage' shouldn't arise again, although there are always permutations on certain misunderstandings. And sometimes there are re-occurences when we need to deepen a particular understanding, or drive it deeper into consciousness (practice). But yeah, if its been successful, the tension should resolve, the body should un-tense, and the mind should 'loosen' its grip on the held thoughts. (the catalyst).

so I apologise if there was no single or specific example presented; but that's just the best way I can describe my process in a bit more detail.

peace brother,

Yeh I don't think a single methodology is relevant as the process constantly changes and flows as you said. I think the guidelines stated by Ra are there to begin the process but where we take it and how we develop it is entirely up to us as a collective and as individuals.

I like to keep things simple, ample contemplation beforehand allows you to relax and flow with the moment when the contemplated problem arises. Like in my reflection above, I didn't even have to try it just all flowed into place which I take as a sign of increased balance.

yes, fully agree! we find things or systems that work for us, and then we make them our own. It's like first buying clothes, and then 'wearing' them in, to make them truly ours lol

yeah, and its great when you have an effortless example like the one you gave. That's when its all become self-internalised

you seem to have really found your calling with your psych degree. All the best on it! I met some of my closest and still best (and trustworthy) friends during my study years. Its an honored position to be, to be able to study what one loves in a supportive environment. And when you probe a bit deeper, you will find that beneath the exterior of 'normality' and 'academia' there are self-thinking people everywhere that do consider the paranormal things, and do value things like meditation and self-inquiry, and most have had a history with psychedelics and bizarre behaviour. It is only the 'convention' of society that restricts most people from discussing what is truly on their minds.

but behind closed doors, after a few beers, in private conversations ... these things are spoken of
