What if there might be a cure for cancer? What if you see what might be a cure for cancer? You go for it? I mean do you try and develop it? What if it turns out you were a fool? What if you have almost zero chance, one in a trillion?
Ever since the birth of my two biological offspring I have been operating on a theory that joy is the answer.
As a young, socially crippled, socially unable, socially repugnant young executive in high-tech, I have operated on the theory that Joy is the answer. That human beings as the most powerful creatures known in the universe, that their output and the Purity, goodness, creativity, brilliance, of their output could only be maximized when they were aligned with the pursuit of joy, not pleasure, not happiness, not Comfort, not wealth, not even personal survival, etc etc etc, but only when aligned with the opportunity for joy. And in Industry despite how incredibly unpalatable I am personally, the results were impossibly astonishing.
And where is the opportunity for joy? Probably unlike anything else in the Human Experience there is a sure and certain answer. Totally within the control of each individual regardless of circumstances. So it can be extremely difficult and seem impossible, it is never beyond the grasp of any individual.
I believe that a man like Jesus referred to it as Soul, having the soul in charge, living out of the Soul. Serving from the soul in solidarity with the neediest. Living out of our capacity to be LSGIABeing.com, by whatever words or none. But our language has been so corrupted over the centuries that I suggest that this cumbersome assembly of words, loving soul of goodness in action being is necessary.
Nothing blindly is done by me, to a fault, and each step along the way this Theory, that joy is the answer, has been studied by me, challenged by me, practiced by me, refined by me, at each step of the way I remain willing to throw it out. But instead every day week month year decade teaches me that it could be the cure to everything important to the human species and now to all species that we are Exterminating.
It is too late to save the human species and the rest of the species were destroying. The cancer caused by not pursuing joy as a species, except the one in a million, is far too advanced.
But there is still you, there is me, and there is the one in a million that we might impact, to help resurrect their joy, to save them from the prevailing joylessness, to resurrect their LSGIA Being.
I had no idea that not only be human giant Jesus, the colored guy, not the white fiction, but not only Jesus but all of the Giants of humanity, Confucius, Buddha, Etc were pointing in this direction if not grasping it fully. In fact Jesus the colored guy, the real one, maybe the one that did grasp it. Fight every historical measure he had zero interest in a life after this one if he believed there was one. By all reliable scholarship he was convinced that each individual could find and live a life of Joy, Heaven if you will, in this one.
The other giants like Confucius, Buddha, Mohammed, it seems that it was more instrumental for them although my study is far from complete. They saw it as a way, what I call loving soul of goodness in action being, they saw this as a way of ending the Carnage that each of them were living in culturally. Jesus did forsee the Jews were going to be destroyed but it seems that he was not seeing that that could be stopped, but that each individual despite the oppression and impending destruction by the Romans, that each individual could live in joy, Heaven, every breath, despite their impossible circumstances.
To me this is way more than the equivalent of curing cancer. And I expect to be redoubling my pitiful inadequate efforts to try and work on Bridging the Gap.
Much of it for the coming weeks will be online, trying to improve what has already been created by me, my blog, and LSGIABeing.com, as a more effective cure, in the unlikely event of the one-in-a-million susceptible to cure wanders into them.
All thoughtful , constructive, serious comments, contributions, insights from you are welcome.
Seeking 1st the Kingdom of Heaven, in other words dying to be reborn. I have been seeking and sometimes finding my whole adult Life! BUT somehow the Ego keeps popping back in.I think it has to do with the Rebirthing part. The chrysalis? Any comments from anybody out there would be welcome. Many are talking good sense, but no one, well
ReplyDeleteI do not know.
Einstein spent a lifetime figuring out theories and explaining those in books so that in only months or years others could come to understand what he understood. By way of comparison I have created the site LSGIABeing.com to take a lifetime of my own learning and many lifetimes that I have studied in others, so that in weeks or months of detailed honest open study and reflection the one-in-a-million truly dying for the truth, not my truth, the truth, can find it in a fraction of the time it has taken me. There are no shortcuts. The truth is hard, that's why no one reaches it. Jesus referred to this, whoever does not hate their own life, the status quo, their comfort, their shortcuts, cannot follow me. Paraphrase
ReplyDeleteAnyone that for the second time, let alone the tenth time, or the 20th time, looks to me to do their thinking for them, to do their personal development for them, and seems to use my posts for nothing other than and easy way to ask me to do so, nothing more than a cheap springboard toward me doing their work for them, should be shocked if they don't get totally blocked from any access to my work. Because such would be pissing on my time, defecating on my time, showing the utmost disrespect for my time and an arrogant Self Indulgence for themselves. And if I did not soon totally block them, if they just didn't get my too kind and too patient warnings, then I would be abusing them by enabling their abusive my time. And that I shall not do.
