The Reality.

Posted on Dec 13th, 2008 by Ian Gardner : Mystic* Ian Gardner

Paradoxically, the Reality is so simple yet so complex. The ‘complexity’ is an illusion because the simplicity of the fact is made complex by the limitations of the mind [Moul].

The complexity arises from the vast number of the examples of the Reality in operation, and the

simplicity from the simple reason/cause which is karma; it is the mind that creates the complexity and the subjugation of the mind that provides the clarity.

As so often happens, the mind tries to consider all examples and collapses into confusion as a result, whereas if we apply the law of karma to each example individually as it arises, we get clarity.

The Moul and Animal Instincts.

Posted on Dec 14th, 2008 by Ian Gardner : Mystic* Ian Gardner

In the case of most animals the territorial instinct is confined to the physical environment whereas in humans this instinct extends to the abstract in that, in the moul, the “mental territory” of the ‘I’ exists. Hence, we find feelings to do with ‘invasion of my space’ – that is, feelings of possession or attachment.

This is another example of an animal instinct manifesting as an aspect of the moul; an acquisition of the Spirit when it “entered” the physical world.

In essence, Spirit is without attachments and therefore without this animal instinct.

Organization Exuding Perfection.

Posted on Dec 22nd, 2008 by Ian Gardner : Mystic* Ian Gardner

My response to posts in The Dream Garden at Gaia in a thread highlighting the fact that many people seem to have similar recurring dreams when they are young:

 

‘It certainly seems as if just about everyone has such dreams when young, thus illustrating a common spiritual purpose being fulfilled by dreams.
If we overlook the physical age and focus on the fact that what we see as a child is, in fact, an ageless embodied spirit entity needing guidance at a time when it is still (perhaps) getting used to the body, life and environment it has taken on for the current life, we become aware of how nurturing and caring is the way this whole business of life actually is; despite the harshness of what we have to experience at times - all of our own making, mind you - the way things are organized exudes perfection in every sense!’
