Lesson of the Day for January 7, 2016

by
Robert Farmilo

When this particular Lesson of the Day popped it's head up...via my so-called personal relationship with Guru God, AKA, God the Teacher...I was in a frame of mind to spit this lesson right out of my mouth.

I'd reached the personal point in all this God Consciousness crap that I'd had enough, you know?

Some things had happened in my personal relationship life...with a person I am quite close to...and some of the "old" shit had appeared. The bad behaviour stuff...just so horrible and painful to spiral into the recriminations and so on, and so forth.

I have to say that over the last little while, I'd been able to stay well to the outside of the beguiling entrancement of the old, locked in stupid garbage-festival...you know, bickering and fighting and escalation to the next tit-for-tat response.

All this on the verbal level...with appropriate tone of voice and body language.

Just such a waste of time...and precious progress.
Or so it seems.

But it calls to me, too. And clearly points at what I do want and need.

And also gives the person in conflict with me the same real and true opportunity to step out of the process of being upset, getting more upset, and so on.

And further into this...idea of how this argument, contentious, fighting...gives me the chance to snip the error messages out from my own consciousness, and replace them with the fragile and delicate shoots growing up into me-me-me...from this beautiful evolution...deeper and further into God Consciousness.

Now, to some of you, this might seem like a way to suppress and repress important issues that are ongoing in your intimate relationship...stuff that needs to be resolved, one way or the other...so that you don't stay in a toxic, worn-out, damaging relationship...and instead, get up and get out...to at least have some peace and not be drawn into the cascading shit storm of someone else...and their own version of, "Telling it like it is."

And you might be right.

Me?

I am in the middle of "it." Or somewhere close to being at the location of my own bullshit, where I can easily get triggered...if you know what I mean.

I have come to the view that I am essentially responsible for my own feelings.
And that consequently, so is everyone else, too.
And I am learning some very valuable emotional gong-fu...about my self...you see.
And how to NOT react.

It's just that the last two days have featured my own personal descent...lapse...regression...into behaviour that I don't want, and don't like, and don't want to do. But these feelings get ahead of this bigger me, and I watch myself make the fire bigger.

I know the person who I am doing this with is capable of NOT being such a dick, too. It ain't just me. I get that. But blaming, and shaming, and gaming...all of that, and more...ain't the point...and I want a new life, Baby.

And it starts with me. Not with anyone else.

(Here is a table with some statements...and, YES...there are some obvious references to The Holy Bible...from that Christian deal...and I sure hope this doesn't offend anybody who is reading this article. And I want to make it VERY clear...I am NOT trying to convert anybody to the Jesus deal...or the Hindu deal...or the Wabba-Goo-Goo deal....)


So...about today's lesson: "I Am God."

When this came to me (thanks a lot, God), I was, "Are you kidding me?"

No. Not kidding you.
Anyway, I went at it, and played the record.
I did the lesson throughout the day.
Just think the thought...those three words...along with your other mental activity.

Make sure you don't attach a mood to it, or try to make a mood with it.
Keep it very simple.

And come to the three words when you notice you are not with the three words.
Do it...rinse...and repeat.

And again, this isn't about blotting stuff out...you know, like trying to force your mind to do this. But it won't hurt to keep with the three words if you are having an especially primitive mental day. 

Just saying.

Sometimes thinking a thought deliberately, and keeping that up...can help to steer clear of the endless parade of mental negativity that is playing inside your you-you-you mind.

Hey, more about what to do with negative thought parades...coming up in the next big article...so stay tuned.

All the Best!
