JAMES' PERSONAL WRITINGS: SLOVING
JAMES' MOST STRATEGIC POSTS: *****
MUCH OF MY POSTING WAS ON FACEBOOK: STARTLOVING1

Led by Israel, decades-long war on goodness, morality, has been raging. Make of yourself a Channel of goodness, work hard at it.

www.lsgiabeing.com

The war, the gaslighting, is being waged on you and yours. Unless you fight it with everything you've got all memory of goodness will be lost.

And it is a war that your head and your flesh want to lose. For them ignorance is bliss. And for your soul, your very life itself, death. 

Nonviolent change efforts have been doomed from the beginning because of their impurity. They seek material political change instead of empowerment of souls in charge of head and flesh.


If you are screaming fire, fire, fire... but rarely grabbing a bucket or helping the wounded is that really helping?


Bless you, Bernie, but James electing the right president once the Titanic had sailed was not going to save it.


James best friend, coach, personal trainer. A work in progress, my entire adulthood now.

Several days ago a friend to ask about a slightly prior evolution of this posted last week. These are some thoughts I shared with this friend....

Friend wrote: also, regarding the scoring system, I do identify with a lot of your personal goals - several are things I'm starting to be more aware of myself. I like this. do you score yourself daily?

James:  It is fluid, at times more fluid than it should be, and at times too rigid. It is a tool not my master and I try to keep that in balance. And it is fluid as to the contents. It is an invaluable invaluable invaluable invaluable for me tool for clarifying what I need to be focused on and to increase that Focus. As to the frequency that also is fluid as I learn What I need to prioritize and whether I'm making sufficient progress and whether something has become gladly habitual. This is a new juncture and a new collection of tools for me so there's a lot of fluidity right now. I'm learning to use the tool at this juncture to help me learn and become useful more quickly.

About everyday go through the list ask myself the question and how I'm doing, 1 is not working James, 10 is a you got it nailed man. I'm really drowning now as you can see by the low numbers but I'll survive because I now have the benefit of looking at the direction that I need to be swimming. And I do feel progress happening and I think soon there will be a fairly rapid rise as Things become muscle memory. At least it has always worked that way in the past and I'm quite sure it will this time.
The yellow is added emphasis so when I scan through this it catches my eye where I'm really flailing.

throughout my adulthood I have time after time hurled myself into new situations and eventually I begin to learn how I need to grow myself, shape myself, to be the solution that I need to be. And a tool of this form with different concepts and verbage emerges and is invaluable. It works to help make the intangible tangible, workable, and improvable. And it is rightly said that what gets attention tends to improve. The numbers is a simple rating one, low, 10, hi. But no previous life juncture have I found my rating so consistently low. But I take great encouragement that I feel I have zeroed in on the things where I need to improve and I'm doing the best I can.




The terminal failure of the great moral Sages was Blindness to what they lived: Loving for Joy is always the ultimate experience.

It has been said that fish are the last ones to discover water...


But even in the material hell unfolding for all it is not too late for the self to have that Joy and thereby to show others that it is possible. This is the work that is needed. It is the only work that could have saved us all, but it can still save the one, or the two. Let's get on with it.

I answered my own question post the other day. What might have prevented fascism? The rise of loving, our mammalian brain, in charge of head and Flesh. All prophets told this.

A friend cannot be lost. Close, pleasurable, acquaintances, yes, they are lost. Sadly we can separate ourselves from Friends.

Thinking to spend the night on eventually on a paved pull out by the beach. No signs say otherwise and a local said should be no problem.


James here. How might Nazism have been stopped in time? Do you know of any research? Asking for a species. All species.


The only salvation left, teach children how to love loving, for Joy.


Fascism simplified. The thugs take over, the rest are exploited until used up and then exterminated. That's it.


Correction: Loving is not the ultimately rewarding experience. Loving to make the world more loving is.


At the top, it is NOT climate denial. It is gaslighting, and you go with it, you fund, you reward it.


No, Boomers, love was not the answer. Lusting is what you meant, lusting is what you do. Your lusting did this. Loving is the answer.


I don't fight for more loving in the world because I have hope, but because it is the Joyful Way of being.


Gandhi's vow of poverty, cultish, I thought. It is a vow of sustainability, solidarity, I just saw. Oh. Yes.


A vote for Biden is a decision to sink Titanic.

My  gift to you for the new year. And unless you do some work to unwrap it including downloading the book and reading this chapter It will do you no good. Chapter four I believe. Though you will hopefully want to read the entire book. And I believe something else. When first I read this book many years ago of course I was deeply impressed. But it seemed too incredible to me that I or anyone could consistently make this Choice which seemed so risky, for a better world? And that is still my feeling. But prior to rereading this chapter several weeks ago a different perspective came to me. What if loving is always the superior Human Experience even in the face of suffering, torture, death? And I have since come to the conclusion that in all likelihood this was what Jesus knew and tried to teach us and the people in these stories here although we are not told that.https://www.startloving.org/2020/01/these-stories-of-heroic-redemptive-love.html

These stories of heroic Redemptive love. Earth-shattering. How 15 years ago did I not grasp that? The ways and Power of Love. Sorokin.

Urgent note from James. He, James, find zeze stories deeply moving but without the following thought really really somewhat interesting, cliche, unimportant. But if one can entertain the theory of as James is nearly certain now, and preparing himself in every situation to execute, if one can entertain the notion that the Supreme Human Experience is always loving no matter what, then these take on a far more important perspective. And although sadly not in these stories are the actors ask nor in any similar situation has the research been done, the question, would you have done this even if you knew it would materially fail and cost your life? I think it is quite clear that in nearly all cases the answer would be yes. Enter James it is also clear but if they had been asked, well, what if acting this way in no way was a function of your religious Faith would you still do it? It seems to me those in these stories the answer again would be, yes. I like feeling that way. Regardless of the cost.

LOVE STOPS AGGRESSION AND ENMITY “ A friend of mine, an elderly Quaker lady, entered her Paris hotel room to find a burglar rifling her bureau drawers where she had considerable jewelry and money. He had a gun which he brandished. She talked to him quietly, told him to go right ahead and help himself to anything she had, as obviously he needed it more than she did if he had to be stealing it. She even told him some places to look where there were valuables he had overlooked. Suddenly the man let out a low cry . . . and ran from the room taking nothing. The next day she received a letter from him in which he said, ‘ I’m not afraid of....

The ways and Power of Love chapter 4 I believe, Sorokin, Harvard, archive.org free download.

In the atmosphere of our Sensate 1 culture we are prone to believe in the power of the struggle for existence, selfish interests, egoistic competition, hate, the fighting instinct, sex drives, the instinct of death and destruction, all-powerful economic factors, rude coercion and other negativistic forces. Yet we are highly skeptical in regard to the power of creative love, disinterested service, unprofitable sacrifice, mutual aid, the call of pure duty and other positive forces.

At the present time mankind perhaps needs to explore this field more than any other. A greatly increased knowledge of love is essential if there is to be a greater production, accumulation, and circulation of love energy in the human world. Both a better knowledge and a greater production of love are desperately needed for the very survival of mankind and for the continuation of its creative mission. Subsequent chapters of this work give a
