Here we can draw not only on Adler but the other greats in the field of Psychology and Sociology:
* Asley Montgue: 'Love is the highest form of human intelligence."
* Abraham Maslow: ' "Being Love" is the state of fully actualized human health. It is somehow the mental complex of Truth, Beauty, Goodness, Wisdom, Dichotomy Transcendance, Simplicity, Playfulness, PERFECTION...."
* Pitirum Sorokin [escaped the Holocaust; founder of the school of Sociology at Harvard]: 'Love is Supraconsciuosness - the seat of all wisdom."
* Etc.
Now, you can see this for yourself. Imagine that the person you love most is tragically injured and you are alone, the only one that can help this friend. What happens? What happens is that every part of your being is harnessed - your highest most holistic intellingence / vision / awareness / wisdom takes over your being and guides you to super human performance.

The only "Demon," "Unclean Spirit" is Selfishness in whatever guise.
David Dellinger is probably the most wise, influential, self-sacrificial activist for peace and justice of the last 100 years in the US. David said of WWII:
"Few chose war. The chose selfishness, and the result was war."
This is hard to see. This is utterly essential to see. Shift your paradigm, before it is too late.

Ritual is a sin and temptation. It removes us from Loving / Serving / Being the Sacrafice.
How can I show you this?
It is Sunday morning, you are in church or at the synagogue on Saturday. You learn that the roof over the children's Religius School just collapsed. You must choose, right?
You must choose how you will live in the face of planet wide suffering:
A. Ritual and Worship;
B. Life of Courageous Sacrifice and Service.
We are finite beings with finite resources and finite time. Every second that you spend on ritual is time you could be lifting rubble off of crushed children.

"They will know you by how you love one another." Military is closest to "Church."
Shame on us.
Our task is to convert the military machine in every respect:
* Communication
* Vision
* Mission
* Recruitment
* Training
* Deployment
The Catholic Workers would be the start but to them, all of this is ritual and symbolism. They do not see the reality of it all. Oh Father.

What would we think about a 2 yr old that hated? "Be like a child...."
Lust, hate, murder, primacy of head over heart, anger at others, the concept of "others".... If your toddler or pre-schooler manifested these features you would think, oh my God, this is not my child! What is wrong!!!!
Is it supposed to change? You know in your Heart it should not. Princeton's Ashley Montague: 'Humans are among the only species characterized by neotenous growth. Unlike almost all creatures where the playfulness, unconditional love for all, joy, wonder, brilliance, flexibility... of the child are not to wither to a rigid adult." Think what we, think what we as slaves to a toxic culture are doing to our children.
We are systematically mutilating our children. The American "way of life" is the most brutal way of death for our children ever to arrive on planet earth.

"Brotherhood" is the only government capable enough
No, this is not the ultimate "idealism." If you've spent time with the more recent posts, and if you have worked hard, you can now see that "Brotherhood" is the ultimate reality, and unless place at the highest priority in our individual lives proliferating "Brotherhood," Life worth living on planet earth is over. It is just a matter of time.
One act of Love can multiply like the "loaves and fishes;" like a "mustard seed."
Infectious. Vicariuos Learning psychologists might say.
Have you seen the old Disney movie "Polyanna?" Captains Courageous? Les Mis? Gandhi? Think of your own, in time.
What did Loving marchers seen on TV spark around the globe during the Civil Rights movement? Etc. Etc. Etc.
Massive, global paradigm shift is what we have to spark.

AS THE NAZI GERMANS WERE "CRAZY" SO ARE WE, ISRAEL AND THE UK
As the Nazi's were mad with selfishness, so are we.
But we are made infinitely more leathal by technology, material wealth, and the communications media.

JESUS CALLS US TO A WAR OF SUFFERING AND DEATH - BUT WE ARE THE ONES THAT SUFFER AND DIE
Total Devotion.
Total Redemption.
Total Redemption.
JESUS CALLS US TO PERFECT SACRAFICE TO THE BEAST - SELFISHNESS.
We quite literally are called to crucifiction. It will take many, many, many, many before the beast (our selfishness) becomes sick at the sight of itself.
"Love as I have loved... they will persecute [and kill] you," Jesus.

Our Father is Love, and when we surrender to Him/Her, seems like God
Unconditional Love is the highest form of human intelligence.
Imagining One Father of us all is the indespensible means for most or all of us to access and surrender to that Divine Wisdom.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The Nicean "Church" is the anit-Christ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, things are not that bad. Why then face such a divisive, hurful issues. Come on now. The game of life may already be over. Ask your Heart!
Nicea culminated the greatest sell-out of humanity of all time. It was of the nature of this:
Constantine:
Hey guys, I've got a problem. I've got two religions at war here. Now, you are not going to like this, but I've got to wipe one of them out. Christianity would be my first choice to wipe out because it is Revolutionary. Instead of people being loyal to the State, they are loyal to God / Father of All / Conscience / Brotherly Love For All.... As Emperor, I can't have this. But the concept of Jesus is enormously seductive. Here is the deal. I'll wipe our paganism instead, and I'll give you tons of money for infrastructure, and I'll make you the State Religion:
* But, Living a Christan Life Loyal 24/7 to God ends NOW.
* You get Sunday morning.
Hey, I know you are disappointed. Look at the bright side. By me not wiping you out you can at least preach the Gospel (no, practice ends now). In doing so, maybe a couple of thousand years form now people will once again take the chance to actually live it!

My name is Start Loving. I had been confused.
I've been confused and mislead these last 55 years.
I see now (God's honest truth) that:
* I was born Start Loving. You could see it in every aspect of my being. I Loved Everything. And I evoked in everyone that saw me - Start Loving.
* Unwittingly my parents (my father was a Saint) began mutilating me, whittling my Soul down, helping me learn Conditional Love, etc. The name Jay McGinley went along with that.
* By 25 I was at best a crushed shell of Start Loving.
* 30 years of struggle has enabled me to regain my health; regain my natural healthy being; regain my proper name. I am Start Loving.
You too were born Start Loving. It is not too late for you.

I think we all know the truth in our Heart (that is in coma.)
This is really, really important. I wish I had more time to help you see this, but not now.
This should do it. Work with this in your mind:
* STOP THINKING. STOP USING YOUR HEAD.
* STOP TALKING. STOP USING YOUR MOUTH SO MUCH.
* START LOVING. USE YOUR HEART.
Here is what is going on. The way our nervous system works:
* You can "think" and /or "talk" without using your Heart which is the seat of your highest wisdom / intelligence (see posts above.)
* You cannot use your Heart WITHOUT "thinking" and "talking" to maximum potential!!!! If engaged, THE HEAR RULES - it optimizes ever aspect, ever capability, every resource at your disposal for the good of the other.
Think of the mother who's child needs heroic performance from her. The mother's Heart takes complete control and takes the mother to a level of Divine Performance. Whatever else this is - this is a Neurological Phenomenon common to us all.
YOUR HEART (YOUR NEUROLOGICAL SUPER COMPUTER) IS DIVINE WISDOM. USE IT. BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.

It Just Does Not Really Matter What Happens to Your Body
This site is of the perception that the natural state of the human being on a tortured planet with most brothers in physical and / or psychological agony is HEROISM - Total, Radical, Heroic OTHERISHNESS, BROTHERLINESS 24/7 - JUST LIKE WE BREATHE 24/7, AND OUR HEART PUMPS 24/7....
Oh my gosh, with this in mind there are a million examples you can think of from Literature, Cinema, Real Life, YOUR OWN LIFE... to SEE that the hero does not care about her / his her body, EXCEPT AS IT IS NEEDED TO "SAVE" THE OTHER.

Start Loving's Vision is Proving Itself Sacred
If you've struggled with the above on this site you can make your own judgement on this.
Either way I deserve ZERO blame or ZERO credit.
For all practical purposes the contents of this site, any value or new insights, revelations that have come through me were just "there." They were a product of Our Father / Divine Wisdom / Insipiration / Supra Consciousness / Conscience / Immagination ... I don't care what you call it.
All this came as I stopped thinking, stopped talking, and started Loving, started turning all my attention to the Heart.

Jesus' Reign? Death of Capitalism
This is a shocking discovery for me that has come within just the last months. I probably might never have gotten there had I not read Dellinger's Yale to Jail, or Zinn's People's History of the United States.
Adam Smith, the creator of Capitalism, a good man as near as I can tell, reached the genocidal conclusion that: The world is too complex to be managed by brotherhood / one family. We must surrender to capitalism, forget the Golden Rule, and God, Devine Providence will work it all out for the best. Oh My GOD.

The psychology of Life and Joy
Well, some day I hope to have the time to complete this post. For now, this entire site, particularly the posts above will have to suffice. But in addition, or for emphasis:
* We have two basic ways of "living" out our lives, two mutually exclusive choices of paradigm: The world is Enemy, or the world is Family.
* SELFISHNESS is the being of the life lived among "enemies." Do unto others before they do unto you.
* OTHERISHNESS / BROTHERLY LOVE is the life lived among "world as family."
There are two chemical coctails of a positive nature that can wash our nuerons - Pleasere and Joy.
PLEASURE IS ELLICITED WHEN THE NERVOUS SYSTEM IS INVOLVED IN SELFISHNESS.
JOY IS THE COCTAIL THAT BATHES THE NEURONS WHEN THE NERVOUS SYSTEM IS HEROICALLY SERVING THE "OTHER."
HOW MUCH MONEY / SELFISH PLEASURE WOULD IT TAKE TO CAUSE A HEALTHY MOTHER TO SELL HERE CHILD - THE ONE THAT CRIES, POOPLS, SCREAMS, DEMANDS.... THE ONE THAT SHE DEVOTES HER LIFE TO SERVING?
JOY ALWAYS TRUMPS PLEASURE. HOWEVER, WE HAVE BECOME SLAVE TO A CULTURE THAT HAS REMOVED, OR PUNISHES VIRTUALLY ALL OPPORTUNITUES FOR OTHERISHNESS / HEROIC NONVIOLENT SERIVCE.
