ORT. Final chapter. Atto XXXIV aka the whispering thread.
Interactions should go down after this.
'And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new."
Could be interpreted as: a new cycle/age will begin. How does one die well? The answer, my few friends, is
blowing in the Tibetan winds. Let's talk about the Himalayan yogic experience of transference of consciousness, po-wa.
This method of transferring the consciousness comes from the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha. It’s not the fabrication of some Tibetan monks.
It was given by Shakyamuni, passed down through the oral transmission lineage, came to Tibet, and is now part of the Tibetan tradition. The question is who has to practice the transference of consciousness and what are its benefits? First of all, from the Buddhist point of view,
human life and death are equally important events. There’s no reason to think that life is the Journey and death is the Void at the end, the Abyss that will annihilate you. You should not think that way. Both are important, actually as you will see, a good death is more rewarding
than a life well lived.
Of course, those who have attained enlightenment in their lifetime don’t need to transfer their consciousness, but those who have not and have to continue along the Path to full awareness, do need to do so. Certain overwhelming conditions, such as
serious disease or wrong thinking, grasping and attachment, create a disastrous situation at the time of death and can prevent yogis from dying a perfect death, so yogis practice the methods for transferring the consciousness before such conditions arise.
Because of the Grey Illusion imposed upon us, most of us are trapped in the Material plane of existence, incapable or unwilling to escape, cycle after self-delusional cycle.
Yoghis, though train in such a way that they facilitate the transfer of their consciousness out of their
own hallucinatory reality and free themselves from fear and a disastrous death. So when they feel they are free, that the time is right for them to transfer their consciousness, they can do it by applying the appropriate technical meditation.I’m not just talking philosophy here.
Many Tibetan monks and meditators have utilized these techniques when the time has been right For example I was told that after the Chinese conquered Tibet in 1959 many ordinary monks employed these methods to happily leave this life because they felt they no longer had the right
to exercise their religious faith. I believe it is vital for us Westerners to know about this because our culture has largely neglected conscious phenomena and the ability to use our mind meaningfully and instead have busied ourselves within the material plane.
Consequently, I trust you will agree that it would be of paramount importance to introduce the idea that we have the power to eliminate disastrous life situations by eradicating the fear of death and learn to detach ourselves from the material viscous grasp.
Anybody can do this because all of us have buddha potential. It exists within all, It’s important to recognize that the primary resource of all happiness, misery, fear and confusion is the mind, not the physical body,
but to fully understand our mind we need to investigate it. Understanding the Divine nature of our mind and its correlation with the true essence of our reality is also the way to begin our ascension, free from fear and illusory attachments. Ça va sans dire, that it's not easy.
To be continued. Good night.
Hopelessly passing your time in the grassland away
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air
You better watch out
There may be dogs about
I've looked over Jordan, and I have seen
Things are not what they seem.

Whispering thread. Final chapter. Atto XXXV
Our normal sense of the person as a lonely island of consciousness, is a dramatic illusion based on theological imagery.
Alan Watts
Once, Shakyamuni Buddha was asked to describe consciousness.
Consciousness is a kind of clear energy Image
that takes the reflection of all existent phenomena, even though it doesn’t have form or color itself. Ego-consciousness is consciousness but has to be eradicated. From the Buddhist point of view, the Ego is a negative aspect of consciousness that gradually has to be abandoned. Image
Pure consciousness continues to flow like crystalline water, from life to life. The Ego pollutes the water and could become the dam that keeps us from our journey and must be eradicated. It is the source of all conflit and confusion. Image

“Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.” Eckhart Tolle
This most intimate conversation continues.
Penrose and Hameroff suggested that quantum vibrational computations in microtubules were
"orchestrated" ("Orch") by synaptic inputs and memory stored in microtubules, and terminated by Penrose "objective reduction" (OR), hence "Orch OR." Microtubules are major components of the cell structural skeleton. Orch OR was harshly criticized from its inception, as the brain
was considered too warm, wet, and noisy for seemingly delicate quantum processes. However, evidence has now shown warm quantum coherence in plant photosynthesis, bird brain navigation, our sense of smell, and brain microtubules. The recent discovery of warm temperature quantum

I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as a derivative of consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, suggests consciousness. Max Planck
There is an abundance of speculations and theories about the Mysteries that await beyond Death's ivory Gate. Science, after a long battle, is coming to terms with Spirituality.
In one of the previous threads, I wrote about Biocentrism and its advo, Dr Lanza. His theory has now
been validated by a recent scientific discovery. A review and update of a controversial 20-year-old theory of consciousness published in Physics of Life Reviews claims that consciousness derives from deeper level, finer scale activities inside brain neurons.

ORT Final Chapter Atto XXXII
The relationship of Self to Other is the complete realisation that loving yourself is impossible without loving everything defined as other than yourself. Alan Watts.
The problem with self-awareness is a simple one: the self we are aware of may not be
acceptable to us. In fact, it’s likely to be a highly unsatisfactory self. If we assume ourselves to be our body, mind, emotions or ego, we inevitably experience a sense of limitation, for all these components are by their very nature limited.This pseudo-self, which upon scrutiny
is unveiled as a cacophony of lucid assumptions, masks our true essence.
Vedanta tells us that we’re far more than we ever dared imagine that we are already whole and complete and that our sense of limitation comes from identifying with what we are not.

In looking out upon the world, we forget that the world is looking at itself. A. Watts
Who are you? A simple question, one might think. Are you your body? Your mind? Or are you your intellect? Could it be you are your Ego? Seriously, who are YOU?
If you have selected one of the above-mentioned options as the answer to my question, then you do not know who YOU are. You cannot be your body, your mind, your intellect, or ego. What do your body mind, intellect and ego all have in common? They’re all objects of your perception
Whether gross, like the body, or subtle, like the mind they’re available for objectification. You see them, which means you cannot be them. The knower is always distinct from the known. Introducing Vedanta. What is Vedanta? The easy answer is, the philosophical basis of Hinduism

"As he thinketh in his heart, so is he.”
These threads of mine are rivers of insights filtered by my consciousness that will eventually merge into the Sea of my personal Awakening. Once we get there, I trust you will be able to follow me on the Path Image
It is going to be difficult for me, because I will have to retrace my steps back into the Abyss that almost devoured my Spirit. More contextualisation is needed before I take that first step backwards.
This reality we are experiencing is, as I have previously stated, an illusion Image
The Great Illusion imposed on humanity every time we approach the end of the Cycle, the Kali Yuga of ancient India doctrine. A number of ancient cultures believed in a Cycle of World Ages in which we gradually descend from a state of spiritual perfection and material abundance to Image
