SHACK 673 THE FOUNTAIN

J Rilly.com
Where on Earth or Heaven does all this writing and inspired I would like to think come from. It is a fountain, a gushing something, it is like the mind and awareness, consciousness, life, the origin of the Universe and Creation. It is invisible and non definable, if it were definable it would be limited. It would be limited by the local ring fenced mind and any inspiration which would or could jar the comfortable conditioned mind would be rebuffed, rebuked and cast aside.

So there is an excitement that a seed, a glimpse, a hint or a great big splash of an AH HA, and then in that eager anticipation to express it in one’s chosen expression, say a few, dance, poetry, sculpture, art, painting, writing and the like. Sometimes when writing it consumes time, food, cramp, fatigue and yet there is an urgency to spill it out, it seems a gap, a space in the mind, awareness, consciousness and a tap of some sort a mysterious process is activated.

Often the writing and content which comes through is a shock and jolts my comfort- ability and jostles my suspended and somewhat lackadaisical doing mind, it can present a challenge and it can answer things, soothe and comfort as well.

Just when I think and feel blocked or I need a rest and there cannot be possibly more it can come suddenly or after a break, it has its own agenda and rhythms, however it does appear commensurate and concomitant with what is going on in my life as such.

It is never trivial, it seems pertinent to my needs and somehow this is not me as a brain washed conditioned person.

Some say it comes from your godhead, your guardian angel, your guides, your this and that, I prefer to leave it as portal, a star gate, a worm hole, a black hole, a fountain, a source which is not behind, in front, up, down or any special tangible location it is a mystery and not in the realms of my mind content belief, it is non local and as such any attempt to define and locate it turns the tap off.

Such is the beauty and frustration; the beauty  of the feel, the rush, the education and creative fulfilment of writing without thinking or worrying as to the grammar and so on, and I am not concerned if the reader or publisher if that ever happens is not pleased, as the content came from source unknown and is not to be tampered with by another’s interpretation, as arrogant as that my seem I feel it a gift from somewhere and although others may not like it, it seems to have a special place in my life.

I am grateful that this is coming through me and I am the flute this unknown plays through me and that is all I can say, I am grateful to the unknown source of my life and through its trials and tribulations has led me to be where I am and to whatever I am and all of this is a mystery as it ever was and without the mystery of the unknown the known would be wearisome although I must say trusting the unknown is not task for the unprepared. For if one would be prepared it would not be the unknown.

SHACK 689 OH FATHER MOTHER GOD

EL FLORA
Carrying on from the previous Shack 688 I felt this morning that Presence, that familiarity, that special feeling and the few times when I have been in dire straits it seemed to lift me and in a few incidents heal me or make things right or lift my spirits.

Mandus used to say ‘I know you are there please come fill me your presence, your spirit and feel the spirit and leave the rest to the Father’

It is a sort of laying aside, a surrendering of the troubled mind, the anxieties and problems, for me I say ‘Father Mother God, Great Source of Life come fill me with your peace’ I then breathe abdomen-ally and watch the turmoil, the tossing wind blown ego fears  that wrack my mind with agony, horrific scenarios of the world and my destruction in agony, pain, torture and grief and sometimes fantasies and sexual innuendos and explicit rituals and replays and sometimes I just flip out in an instant into one of the temptations and agendas, sometimes my ego mind is so bored with the repeats that it eagerly searches the graphics of the storehouse of these lurid scenarios to reconfigure the options and present a new mind grabbing presentation that holds the awareness in captivity.

It is like a bored me searching hundred of TV channels to find a mind distraction and entertainment in order to run away from the world condition which I feel I could play into or the seeming emptiness of not having these fantasies and horrors, I could easily be an SAS or special forces operative, a debauched bloated billionaire, a priest, a something or other and these play out in my mind to lure me away from the ‘I know you are there’.

Mandus like many people think at first God (a name for The Spirit, The Presence or whatever you’re fancy)is outside and so it feels so when the agendas above cloud and occupy the mind, and the way of watching with curious interested detachment of the witness is the same once the presence is established and felt it is neither inside or outside it is totally oneself ‘I and the presence are one’.

So the separation, the duality is only, I say lightly and flippantly, the conditioning, the programming and brain washing I was subjected too from earlier on in my life, the grooming that has taken hold in a vice like grip that thwarts my life and causes no unending so it seems of misery and doubt.

Yet had I not had the NDE, the rare glimpses of the splendour of the soft velvet touch of the Presence, that inner smile, that knowing, that peace, that joy, that sublime feeling of utter safety and eternal life, that space of redemption and so on I shudder to contemplate what nightmare I would have ended in; yet in that nightmare knowing only that and no other I would have been oblivious and thought there was no other way and I might have been relatively happy and thought no more of it, or carried on like my parents and many others fearing life and fearing death.

To say I am happier now with the rare glimpses of the Presence or rather the feel of it, it is not outside of the mind in the world of form although mind things are as real and in dreams as solid, just as the waking dream is a longer hypnotic speciality dealt up to the weakness of the spirit and the strength of the ego and that is the contest; the age old devil and god, the god and evil, the black and white and all other duality's, until one comes to polarities and complementary's.   

Then some philosophers, psychiatrist, psychologists, psychotherapists, and counsellors and so on say the Presence is merely the relief and absence on a temporary basis when the mind is either, drugged, accepts the dilemmas and resigns oneself philosophically or on drugs medical or hallucinogenic recreational or spiritual like Amazonian Shamanic substances that have woken folk up to other alternatives that one's is mind stuck in.

So is my ego and  is very able abilities and able to conjure up from the total experiences of my life which includes books, relationships, illnesses, NDE, spiritual, meditative, workshop presentations and total everything a false Presence, fools gold and is this the egos last big trump card to put the doubt that there is no Presence just a mind manufactured opiate to relieve the pressure of reckless, intense, frenzied, lust and avarice that is really what humans are and any lofty moral clinging is merely fear and not being up to the challenge of the survival of the fittest.

The ego will say ‘even if you are totally sure of the Presence are you really sure, how much of you will you sacrifice to be sure, you have given up much but is this just betting, a wild hunch, secretly hoping for a saviour even if it is a just a feeling’?

So do I know you are there or I am just hoping you are there and not a trick of mind? Mandus 's example showed the proof over the years with hundreds of healing's and miracles, what do I have to stand by on?

SHACK 688 PRESENCE

WORLD HEALING CRUSADE
‘I know you are there’ said the late Brother Mandus as he paced up and down the Blackpool beach in the North of England, I met him several times and he baptised me in a wash room when I went to take him to a venue in Hendon to my late dear friends Gwen and George Murray. He was the founder of the World Healing Crusade and a great healer and wise man.  Apparently he used to speak to God and the answers used to arrive.

He was an atheist and when he came to the UK from South America (I think he was of Scandinavian origin, and was one of the first pilots to fly over the Andes), be that as it may he arrived in England with a wife and family and lived somewhere between Preston and Blackpool.  He had a thriving business and it was one of only three in the UK. Suddenly the business started to decline for some reason or other. It got crucial and on this journey to his business from home along a bypass road he saw a ruined church, he stopped one day to think things through, he found a sort of peace there.

On one of these sessions he heard a bang that startled him and he enquired whose there?  After this happened on several occasions he realised that it must be in his imagination and so asked himself was it his worry over his failing business and was he cracking up. His enquiry led him to hear a voice which guided him to work in healing. He shared this with his wife and she said well go along with this and if it doesn’t happen then go to a doctor.

The voice requested he put an advert in the paper ‘room wanted for healing’ and this advert nearly drained him of the weeks food money and rent.

Unbeknown to him a widow who managed a hotel in Blackpool sold her hotel when her husband died and then bought it back because of the memories and attachment. By chance she saw the advert and contacted Mandus.  He went there and saw the room and explained he had very little money to pay for it, she said well try it out and see what happens, she was glad of the company.

With borrowed money Mandus put an advert in the paper for healing and then got the shakes as he realised he did not know how to heal and was not religious. So he had an old card table, those with a green baize cloth card table and a chair.

A knock at the door and old lady came in she was bent double her chin almost on her knees and looked up at Mandus and said ‘well can you do anything about this’? He looked at her aghast and was perplexed, she said ‘well come on then’ he froze and then remembered the voice, the presence of something that came with the voice; he asked the voice who guided him so far ‘what do I do now?’. The voice said ‘lay your hands on her back and say in the of the Christ be healed’ to his and her astonishment she stood upright and there was a sort crack noise and said’ this is a miracle I’ve been bent over for nearly twenty years'. Mandus was as astonished as she was. After this his faith grew in the voice and the healing crusade became and still is world famous.

I relay this event and will carry on its significance for me as it hit me this day of the 12th July 2019 as I was getting out of bed after a short meditation, this event with Mandus goes back to the 50’s and my meeting with him in the late 70’s.

Out of all the gurus, great wise persons, books and all  he has a meaning for me because Mandus was an ordinary man, he fished as a relaxation never killing but retrieving and putting back to the river, he smoked occasionally he was a married man with children and spoke simply and earnestly and was humble and worked on donations, needless to say the hotel has become the sanctuary and is there today doing the great work of God or whatever the voice represents to you and in what name.

SHACK 687 CEASE

BestQoutes.name

What happens when the hamster wheel stops and one hasn't left the mortal coil? The beliefs on the merry go round, the carousel, the constant repetitions that are the daily automatic robotic like performances, affording some security in the known of the same old, same old, comfortable in some ways and yet growth maybe limited. True the body grows and perhaps some quest of the mind may add to the stimulus, however many just resign themselves and live with a kind of false contentment and many are afraid to peep over the parapet. 

When the wheel stops not on death but on the realisation of the constant cycling of the known one may begin to observe the track, the wheel and watch with a kind of detached interest one's daily routines and the world's routines and begins to question are these daily routines really me, like when I change furniture in the room and go to the old lay out automatically, why do I feel so uncomfortable when my routine is disturbed, why is allopathic medicine only accepted mainly in the West while herbal,energy, TCM and Ayurvidic remedies and medicines are not and so on.

I have based my life on being conditioned, I have accepted the routine like a programmed robot, an algorithm me, a digital implant of someone else's brain washed self.

So when the wheel ceases its high revolutions and I begin and begins to slow down one begins to pick out the individual IT computer digital pixels, bits of quanta, the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that one takes as one's life. The jigsaw is the revolving wheel, imagine the jigsaw on a wheel and moving so fast it is a scenario in movement of ones life, one is caught up in the jigsaw and now one begins to see the pieces of the puzzles were and are the concepts that were taught and ingrained into one, an etched in acid brain ingrained as reality and so security.  

When the pieces fall away one realises that one is aware of space in the jigsaw and that space feels frightening at first and then it begins to dawn on one 'I' am this space, 'I' am aware without the jigsaw or the wheel and 'I' that space, I am an aware being, a consciousness and I exist as a witness to the puzzle but not the puzzle. Previously my identity was the puzzle wheel, now I can live on and in the wheel without being tightly bound to its colourful presentation in order to lure and seduce me out of attachment to the puzzle which when witnessed and observed is but a temporary transient weak structure. 

Basically one can live with a few prominent pieces, enough to survive in this wheel in this incarnation and when the wheel stops completely at the death of the wheel, the human body, one can elect not to choose another wheel unless there are many left over pieces which may be named unfinished business.

SHACK 686 NEVER ENDING


123rf.com

The process of de-identification with what or which is not me, the me with all the beliefs, brain washing, programming and conditioning dissolved and is the not me. When all this identification which is attachment which is like a hand hold, a tight grasp on thoughts, disciplines and the above which were the security and the known and when one realises the shallowness, the lack of substance and the security and safety were a temporary and dubious safety net, when this recedes in its importance and that they were a work in progress and process and the reality of a stagnant known which rots and decays over time, then one comprehends that security is not guaranteed and movement and challenge and movement is in itself a kind of fluid security and that reality in a constant unmoving known with a few tolerances here and there is a death awaiting one and a dream of all yesterdays amalgamated in a package of false reality, a holiday brochure or a melodramatic drama five star rated movie and that seeking continuity in reincarnation and regurgitation merely gives identification of a self induced loop.

Question?  How many rounds of the game, the hamsters wheel will be needed or necessary until the penny drops?

Question?; what is it that happens that causes a 'too' to happen too and who is this too anyway, if it isn't there and is a ghost in the machine---its enough to drive you crazy, then again who is this you?

I never know whether is a 'to' or a 'too'. Yuck

Does it really matter. It just shows you, how crazy one can be if you try to be to clever.

SHACK 387 ENDLESS

It seems that there is no end to the stream of life pouring through me, it feels like a cork or plug has blown. Physically it feels like my crown chakra has shattered, although it seals up partially now and then. It feels like a hole has opened somewhere in my being and perhaps it is some neuronal reconfiguration.

Yesterday the 20th of July 2017 I spent the day wandering about nowhere in particular, eating a lot of junk food, overspending and the next day I was exhausted, restless and in a strange space, a space or place of no place or space and my familiar ego mind not finding itself in the remnants and shards of this shattering.

SHACK 385 BOTTOM

When one reaches oneself and realises one is the aware intelligence and the stark beauty of nowhere- ness, one then resides and abides at the bottom, top, or sides in real space terms without description or dimensions.

Then there is nowhere else to go----because one is one. One is multi-directional and yet dimensionless there is only what is.

So one can just create from the emptiness to fullness knowing it has no proper substance and is dream like, a hallucination, an illusion and it is fabricated temporary reality for there is no reality in space or tangible form, it is the stuff of dreams.

This then if taken as reality is created from doing as in contrast to creating from being, one from fullness and one from emptiness.

One has to be in the emptiness to realise this--- and that maybe an illusion as well.

Should the illusion believe in substance and form then it fools itself and is trying to make shadows as solid substance..

Still trying to hang your coat on the door hook eh?

SHACK 685 C'EST LA VIE

The conjurer and the trick are one--or are they?


Does it matter?  Yes to the inquisitive mind, and it will frustrate Itself looking for an answer until it realises there is no plausible answer or solution and either it goes on searching and frustrating Itself with endless pursuits or resign Itself to depression,  distraction and destruction or settling for no answers or solutions, and if able to settle without deep regret and resignation and absolutely lay aside and then resting in peace and endless laughter at the illusion it took for real, when this truly sinks home and in, then peace and freedom are enjoyed.

I know why I was sent to Earth and its experiences. The sufferings, the heartaches, the jealousies, the hate, the joy, the celebrations, the sicknesses, and the health---its simply to realise its a kind of dream and a sort of an illusion and when that is realised, the look back at time and the past and what is left is the realisation of me and that could be a delusion as well.

Just to be and it will end restless thought and from being comes the still silent voice of Itself which will set the doing as it should be, or be still quiet and content with being which is myself---self realised.

Worn jeans and holes in sleeveless jeans waistcoats with tears and rents in them reminds me of a life in the country, growing veg, constructing an off grid eco chalet, quietness, trees, rivers, mountains fresh sweet air, working the land, no gyms, no cars, no TV radios or computers, no mortgage, rents or pensions.

The jeans and worn and faded clothes are symbols of the natural mind and the life that accompanies it.

It is rest easy, be easy and falling asleep after a hard day in the field, the natural mind and the life that accompanies it.

This maybe why the well off city folk yearn for when they buy this type of manufactured clothing, it maybe a symbol of a life more simply lived and hankered for.

Perhaps many would like a simpler life in this hurly burley world and can only escape it in holidays often they are big hotels, casinos and night clubs, beaches and sunbathing. Perhaps we could devote time in the city to quiet places and rest, even at home.

This frantic 21st Century and its technical achievements -----or are they achievements?

Looking back on SHACK silent witness and when the carpet is removed or enough of it lifted up and dissolved then the programmes of the carpet, which have limits as to what can be physically and mentally achieved in the Earthly form, albeit there are mighty feats and works.

Once the ‘light’ begins to meet the light covered by the carpet, the limits begin to lift and the rules of science such as gravity, weak and strong forces, theories and speculation do not apply, the light has its own way and the hologram of illusion brought about by the carpet and its brain washing is bypassed, the new fresh ‘light information’ is presented and the brain decodes these events and they may seem unusual, like miracles, strange powers. These powers an only arrive when the ego steps aside as it were, the carpet is rolled up or is just not there.

When people attribute this to a Guru, the devil, or some deceased who has become a spirit, they are merely side stepping and letting something else do the work that is facilitated by the space vacated by the side step of the ego carpet. They create the entity of power which can do seemingly miraculous phenomena but they are limited to some extent by the space vacated and what residue the ego still has, less ego more miracles, miracles are out of frequency that the ego broadcasts on.

So let God, let flow.

Can one really get out of the way, or only partially? If one could manage a great deal of ‘out of the way-ness’ then the light will provide all our needs, if it is only partial space then only shadow and imitations which maybe reflections of the light and some needs are granted and provided.

In this light our bodies survive more or less without the inner revelations. This is because the floor boards are at work and light seeps through although filtered, sort of semi transparent, like murky glass.

This being so our lives run on percentages according to how much light which is alive awareness consciousness our carpets will allow through.
