Thank you. The ad hom toward LRH was simply Gerry A’s post and not my covert slam toward him. I only wanted to provide the Heaven reference that Per referred to.
Thanks deE’. Geir’s posts have a placebo effect on me. When I read one of his posts, I totally expect to be pointed in a direction to have a new realization. Sometimes it happens when I first read his posts and sometimes it has to percolate in me-brain for a while, and sometimes quite-a-while, nevertheless, expect something — I do. It has been interesting to me to notice the heavy expectations that I place on blogging here.
Personally I try, and usually succeed in not thinking too much and just let the thoughts appear or not. I learned to never expect anything, therefore I’m never disappointed. Just Be and freely flow, and I don’t worry about it! But then I’m a simple creature and understand simple words.
I agree with your comment about seeing heaven and here and now as PT. To be clear, you’ve probably noticed by now that I am quite the squirrel Scientologist. Regarding the language, I try to respect extant language and to use it correctly; however, in places like this, where LRH used some normal English words like valence for his own purpose and gave it his own meaning, then I give myself carte blanche as well to re-use these words so long as I give fair warning and try to be clear how I use them. I use a lot of analogies and metaphors when I write. Others say that I just write in circles!
Currently, I am trying to find ways to write that the “time track” seems to me something which I actively do in PT. This seems to me to align with the OP. Any negative effects that it might have on myself in PT are things which I am actively doing in PT . Neutralizing these negative effects requires me to find ways to notice what I am doing and end-off on doing those repetitive and non-optimum iterations. I have several effective tools that I use for being mindful of this and my progress has been satisfactory to me.
I love reading your epiphanies.
They expand or add to my reality.
Thank you
why “small”? 🙂
There are bigger ones looming.
Hej Geir,
Tak for det.. interessant.
Har du set den HCOB der hedder Heaven?
Per
Nei – har ikke det. Kan du sende den til meg?
Heaven: Heaven
Thanks for that link. It is extremely interesting.

Got that, thanks 🙂

Yea, though I walk through the meadow of the shadow of doubt, I feel only hope as I am on the right side of the daisies.

Poignant. And funny! 😀
“Hope springs eternal…” (Alexander Pope)
And as another favorite poet once said:
“…What’s done is gone.” 🙂
You can say also “What’s gone is done” 🙂
Yes, you could. And I could add something Scientological to that but I don’t want to press my luck already today. LOL 🙂
Let’s see: If you have doubt, you have some blossom of hope. If you don’t have doubt then you don’t need any hope.
All that matters is now!
🙂
Well sad to say but for me doubt has also been like a long deep valley with steep rises …
But with reference to an earlier blogpost on an open mind, I’ve always considered a certain amount of doubt to be a prerequisite for an open mind …
Then and there is out-of-valence.
Now and here is in-valence*.
(*in-valence: pan-determined. very-in-valence: Unity.)
I see it as in PT, present time. Do like your scientological reference, it is interesting.

Good advice.

This is as spot on as they come. It is exactly how I see it.
Thank you Geir. I am indebted.
