(09-26-2018, 02:06 AM)One of Love Wrote: Your wisdom aligns with my feelings. Turning issues like bad behavior into nonissues has been a major thing I've noticed I've had to deal with in my life. My father made his drinking a nonissue because it wasn't an issue to him. It was to us because he'd become abusive and he didn't care to notice.
Invalidating a real problem is abusive in my experience. A tool to silence rather than anything else.
CA has done the same and he's no saint, but he turned things like polarity into a nonissue and all it did was make things worse for him. He turned his mother into a nonissue and things got worse. Saying something that isn't okay IS, that's dangerous. It's not okay when people are abused, or hurt, especially in a place that expresses itself as a place of love which equates it to a safe place for some.
If I came here believing this place was a safe place, my replies would be greatly varied, I'd be more open about myself, share about myself, but I do not believe this is a safe loving place. I think you've all deluded your views of this place because you love this place. It's like how I just want to stroke the ego of CA to make him feel better and more mundane than stroking his beliefs. He wants to believe but it just hurts him, sometimes he needs to be reminded he's just a human, nothing more, nothing less. Not a soul or consciousness underneath filters of perception, just a human with a lot of beliefs.
It grounds him, and he can't ground himself for some reason I can't make sense of. I just assume when your mind runs like a super computer the humanity gets lost in there...
I see many turn blind eyes here. That the view of acceptance here is in an absolute manner does not align with my understanding of this material. To accept someone hurting you just because 'its the right thing to do' doesn't mean it is actually the right thing to do.
I'm sure that is especially true if the person hurting you has no awareness of the consequences they're inflicting upon you. Planned or spontaneous, hurting someone is not acceptance, letting yourself get hurt is not acceptance.
You can accept something and still attempt to not be harmed by it. Just like I accept this place is as it is, that doesn't mean I just say 'kay' whenever harmful energies come my way because I accepted they exist here.
For all of you that see nothing with what this place has done negatively to others, I will especially ask true love to illuminate you for my avoidance.
Aion you don't need to apologize! You didn't change the context, conversations evolve and the subject did move onto you. I'm not gonna attention ----- myself lol, I like a shifting spotlight. Plays need them to get the focus across haha!
And life is a play so they say. So you have no need to apologize.
I will admit, I was hit with a twinge of anxiety clicking on this thread and other replies to me. I don't want to fight or argue as much as just inform. I'm not here to stay so I'm not going to expend my emotions here like he did. I'm just on a mission of mercy to find answers for someone I love.
That such a journey brought me here, I get a good laugh out of it. Exploring the fallacies and issues of a loving place (since it's not a forum or a cult according to community members) has really made me recognize my own love and wisdom compared to my dark love and wisdom... I do not believe I understand, I just feel that I must take these sides of my love and wisdom, and combine them into their true part since light and dark are components of trueth (made up word, think of it as if truth has a sleuth of parts that needed to come together to manifest it).
Beyond that, truth seems to exist in all parts, like love and beauty. In my anger is truth. In my joy is truth. In my pain is truth. In my healing is truth. In all of these things, to unify them was to manifest their truth. And of what little trueth I've found, belonged to my love for CA, and my hate for the male gender. Belonged to my selfishness discovering something that finally made it not act only for itself. Belonged to my suffering finding healing. To my frustration finding tranquility.
To me, I am just a clueless bumbling confused human enjoying the mysteries of life and the serendipitous ways of god. I am fallible, I scream and hit and yes. I bite and scratch. I am a monster in one part, and a sacred divine being in another.
When Ra said are we not all things, I was surprised to find that I am. I'm the rock on the trail, the tree in the greenery, the running water of a lake, my emotions mimic these things and stem from life itself, my sadness shines like the moon, my joy rains down on me like a downpour. My silence is still as the rock and my mind's eye is fluttering about like a butterfly.
When I come here I feel moved by the war of energy here. I enjoy the show, it is entertaining, but I have to put down my smile to this place and remember why I'm here. This place drove someone down the road to suicide, the keys to that cause still lay within this place. I'm just here to dig them up, I'll enjoy myself still but ultimately my time here is temporary, so everyone who may have an issue with my issues here, worry not for I will not be around forever.
I believe nothing here will change, having seen the stuckness of the energy that sits over this community, the 'egregore' as this place seems to call it. It is like the show Catdog, two totally different beings attached as one, both pulling their own way. Result is a tug of war. End result is a place as seen now, a loving community that drove someone to attempt suicide.
Seems clear as quartz to me.
I think there may be more to your visit here than just learning about C_A (I know his real name, I just don't use it for his privacy). I'm not saying that for "woo" effect, I am just not generally someone who believes in coincidences. Perhaps things won't change here, I guess time will tell, but if there's one effect I know this place has is that it tends to be very revealing and raises a lot of internal dialogue in people.
Egregore is actually an old occult word and isn't actually commonly used around here so much. I actually don't really study the Ra Material anymore, I haven't read over it in years and my interest is more in old world philosophy and paganism. So, for me, my participation here is sort of skewed since I understand most of these things through a different lens than the material. However, despite not really 'supporting' the material, I still feel drawn here to help. Maybe I'm just a sucker for challenges.
The way I see the energetic space of the forum is like a giant glass wall that is made of a two-way mirror. If you are on the outside you just see yourself and it appears there is little going on inside. However once you step inside you can no longer see outside and instead of just your own reflection things become chaotic with everybody's reflection. It is something of a psychic prison it seems at times. Nearly impossible to see by those who are so immersed in its moving reflections. That's not to put down anybody's power of perception but rather to point out the subtlety of it.
I think that you are quite balanced internally and I hope you find what you are looking for. I hope that not only for your sake but for his as well. I would like nothing more than to see him in a better place.
I would make the suggestion that a key to understanding what happened with C_A might be in putting yourself in his shoes and realizing that he actually did love this place and I think that's part of what drove him crazy about it. He loved it but it never felt right to him and he was so passionate about bringing it to the 'next level' that I think he invested so much and got so little back that he really burnt himself out.
I'm pretty sure he only had the three accounts as far as I know, I don't think he had any others. I talked to him on all three accounts so I remember a lot of what he expressed. When he left I was going through a lot of my own personal crap so I admit I wasn't able to be very attentive and now I wish I had been, but I guess what's done is done.
I hope and wish for the best for you two, I really do.
I'm not sure it's possible to unlock a deleted account. If he had just had the accounts 'Closed' it would be possible, but he had the account deleted from the system so I'm not sure there is any way to recover it. However, I would PM "SteppingFeet" to find out for sure. He is one of the core individuals running L/L so he'd be a good person to direct questions to.
