Rejection is the diminishment of your &#8220;self&#8221; in your in-born space. It is a diminishment imposed by yourself or by the group (collectivity) on yourself.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let no one diminish you&#8230; least of all yourself &#8211; (at least within the confine of your own mind).</p>
<p>Rejection is the diminishment of your &#8220;self&#8221; in your in-born space. It is a diminishment imposed by yourself or by the group (collectivity) on yourself. At birth, you enter nature&#8230; from (and at the center)&#8230; of the universe. There are no other position. The universe is everywhere&#8230;limitless. Everywhere is the center of the universe. You are therefore located at the center of the universe. In that center &#8211; all &#8211; of the universe&#8217;s laws, forces, and powers are contained (active).</p>
<p>The first learned human diminishment is that you are valued less than a &#8220;God&#8221;. This &#8220;God&#8221; is above and you are below. Far, far below. And then a whole hierarchy of people take precedence over you in your own &#8220;space&#8221;. Then everyone reminds you of your &#8220;place&#8221;&#8230; until you learn your place. That place, your space, is of less value that the ones above you. You must submit and to &#8220;God&#8221; and to those above you.</p>
<p>You always find yourself below the feet of &#8220;God&#8221; and most of the time below the feet of humanity.</p>
<p>Rejection&#8230; in its many forms: Those above you remind you constantly&#8230; until you internalize it well and form the habit of reminding yourself of how lowly a person you are. How small, how insignificant, how valueless you are. It is the abdication of your value. Of your self. Your space is trampled on. You bow. You submit. You obey. And, for many this becomes their expected value. Servitude. Obedience. And silence.</p>
<p>And, for your trouble, a seat is promised you in Heaven. Once dead.</p>
<p>But, it is now that you are given form and breath. It is now that &#8211; all of life &#8211; is available to you. It is now that you are alive. This is your moment of &#8220;beingness&#8221;. &#8211; To diminish yourself you must deny and accept. You must deny yourself and accept that a &#8220;God&#8221; and other human being are above you.</p>
<p>If (when) you get tired of being &#8220;rejected&#8221; below&#8230; then you need to begin to see that your space, located at the center of the universe, has value. That you occupy a valued &#8220;universal.&#8221; space. That no one is above you. Nor gods. Nor humans.</p>
<p>You have the power to rebuild your self through knowledge. The path of self-recovery begins in the silence of your soul. Where you confide in yourself. Where you are all of the &#8220;life&#8221; that exists. All of the universal energy flows &#8211; in &#8211; out &#8211; through &#8211; from your space. You are the beholder of all the laws, the forces, and the powers of the universe. You are, as well as millions of other centers, the space that create the universe, that keeps the universe in existence.</p>
<p>You are the reason the universe exists.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What got me going on this reflection?</p>
<p>The statement that we are not meant to be happy on earth.</p>
<p>(This statement is erroneous.)</p>
<p>How do we get to accept that we are not meant to be happy? How do we get to internalize that we are not worthy of the pleasures of happiness? How do we get to feel so ill-at-ease with the fun of happiness?</p>
<p>(It is as if we have been soaked at birth in a &#8220;disfunctional&#8221; bath.)</p>
<p>That we admit it or not, we are, from birth on, taught, educated, indoctrinated &#8211; brainwashed - that we are lowly beings created by a powerful but insatiable &#8220;God&#8221;. A &#8220;God&#8221; that we cannot please. Our imperfections, sins, impurities, offends Him to no ends. Thus we accept to live in &#8211; suspended animation &#8211; till death.</p>
<p>(And somehow misery &#8220;Blessed be the poor, the meek&#8230;&#8221; is a virtue.)</p>
<p>But, at roots, we are natural beings.</p>
<p>Happiness is one of the ingredients that is included in the natural act of being human. Happiness awaits in us to be triggered, to be received, to be felt. Happiness is a natural essence. But over and over, we are told to rid ourselves of our natural essence. &#8211; As we do not and cannot succed in disconnecting ourselves from our natural &#8220;nature&#8221; &#8211; we feel guilty. We, trying to please ourselves and not &#8220;God&#8221;, sin. Then we fear the wrath of &#8220;God&#8221;.   </p>
<p>We have constructed around ourselves and around our minds a bubble so thick, so opaque, that we cannot see the real world. From our bubble we keep the world at a safe distance&#8230;  We make it the purpose of our existence to denaturalize the &#8220;Source&#8221; out of our soul. And, we are absolutely convinced that that has no concequences.</p>
<p>We pound (or have it pounded) in our head a book of instructions (morality) that has nothing to do with the real nature of our lives and find it &#8220;scary&#8221; to open nature&#8217;s real book of instructions.</p>
<p>The trap is well laid.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br />
Happiness comes from an act of consciousness. And thinking. And, the courage to un-brainwash ourselves. It is awesomely worth it.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>For more information, read the book &#8220;A Natural Philosophy&#8221;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You exist in a self-creating nature-universe-source.</p>
<p>As &#8220;Source&#8221;, the universe is infinite.</p>
<p>Everywhere &#8211; is its center.<br />
You are a center at the center of the universe.</p>
<p>Like all centers, your center holds within its core and and with all of its parts all of the forces of the universe. Using these forces, your primary function is to sustain yourself in existence. (Take a deep breath &#8211; and think)</p>
<p>But you are not alone.<br />
You are one center among zillions of centers.</p>
<p>At the center of your - being/center/form  - the universe has weaved a mind. A mind made of senses. Senses that expand into a body (substance). You touch, you see, you smell, you taste, you hear &#8230; the self&#8230; the world&#8230; the universe. Then you have senses that radiate into a soul (essence). You acknowledge your existence, you learn the ways of your &#8220;self&#8221;, you map the universe and the world around you, you make plans, you formulate desires, you act.</p>
<p>Using your senses of body and of soul, you walk among the many forms of the world. This is existence.</p>
<p>And as &#8220;Source&#8221;, nature-universe is &#8220;potentiality&#8221;.<br />
The universe is the creator of &#8211; all - forms.<br />
As a center you are &#8220;potentiality&#8221;.<br />
Your function is to bring into form possible possibilities.</p>
<p>You are a form performing a cosmic dance. A dance of the self. A dance of the many. A step at a time. A thought at a time. A dream at a time. In you is written the way to access the &#8220;Source&#8217;s&#8221; potentiality. You can, within nature-universe-source, be a follower, a leader, an originator of forms and of ideas.</p>
<p>Every moment you design your purpose. &#8211; from small to large. &#8211; From doing very little to accomplishing a lot. From taking care of your cat to saving the planet. &#8211; The &#8220;Source&#8221; listen. The universe accomplishes. It is its nature.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>The universe forces are all-powerful.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Morality is said to be the greatest achievement of mankind. Morality gives us, human beings, &#8220;laws&#8221; to live by. The law-Giver: An ancient &#8220;God&#8221;. One of the gods of old.</p>
<p>Without these laws, it is advanced, we would quickly become derelics incapable of forming a sustainable &#8220;self&#8221; or society. We would be at each others throats. It would be the end of civilization. Therefore, we need morality.</p>
<p>However nature has inscribed in each and every human being its own laws. But moralists think that our natural laws, which lead to the way we are, make us wicked, corrupted, sinful. Human (natural) laws are to be eradicated and replaced by divine laws (morality).</p>
<p>Morality deals much with &#8220;good&#8221; and &#8220;bad&#8221;&#8230;. With &#8220;right&#8221; and &#8220;wrong&#8221;&#8230; with how we should think, want, act, and be. To moralists these &#8220;judgement calls&#8221; are absolute; to nature they are relative. Morality sets external rules of conduct. Nature sets internal rules of conduct.</p>
<p>Nature sets of rules, laws, forces, and powers run deep through our body (substance), our mind (our thinking device), and our soul (our essence). They are the same through out infinity. And their duration spans eternity.</p>
<p>Morality attempts at our denaturalization is a futile endeavor. All we get is confusion, guilt, and the destruction of our self-esteem.</p>
<p>We begin to forget that we are natural beings living in a natural universe. We become &#8220;fake&#8221; beings. We walk our lives in a daze. In a dream-trance. Unable to make heads or tails of who we are. To get closer to the ancient sky dweller we divest ourselves of our birthright: our nature.</p>
<p>Many say that without morality, we fall. Actually, we rise. We feel a sense of belonging, a sense of oneness with the cosmos, with the earth, with the forms of nature, and with people. We learn about our true nature. We face life. We become life.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Moralists demand &#8220;change&#8221; in human behaviors&#8230; because an ancient god said so, because they say so, because their leaders say so. But without knowing the roots of the behavior that is said to be in need of &#8220;change&#8221;&#8230; the demand becomes irrational, contorted, dysfunctional, dictatorial, bullyish, confusing, deceitful.</p>
<p>Our human behaviors have their roots &#8211; deep &#8211; in our nature. We cannot change our nature. But we can learn to understand it. From understanding we can navigate the landscapes of our own mind and the landscapes of the world we live in &#8230; as a (functioning) human community.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Morality tells us who, what, and how to be.<br />
Nature asks us to be aware and conscious.</p>
<p>Awakening from the fears, the rewards and the punishments of the gods is not easy&#8230; still magnificient nature is the solid ground.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>And for those who would want to write a secular code of human conduct into civil laws&#8230;  one has been enounciated long ago: &#8211; &#8220;Do (and do not do) unto others what you want (and do not want) others do unto you.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>For more information, read the book &#8220;A Natural Philosophy&#8221;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spirituality is the feeling that there is something more to life, something more to human existence, something more than a person simply being a mechanical structure living in a world filled with multitudes upon multitudes of innert forms. Spirituality is a feeling (a sensation) of connection. Of oneness. </p>
<p>But oneness with what&#8230; with who?</p>
<p>According to religious teachings, the ultimate purpose of human existence is the achievement of &#8211; oneness with &#8220;God&#8221; &#8211; within this life, if possible&#8230; if not, then in the next. The problem: &#8211; there is no &#8220;God&#8221; -.  And the believer&#8217;s mind enters into a dream, into a dream-trance. From that moment she/he walk in a world replete with hidden temptations, unsatifactory pleasures, corruptible &#8220;flesh&#8221;&#8230;. basically, a world void of &#8220;God&#8221; oneness.</p>
<p>The world is renounced.<br />
&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>What is missed is an understanding of what nature is&#8230; of who we are&#8230; at depth. Our human form originates in a cosmic mind (intelligence). Our form expands its senses into a body  (substance)&#8230; and into a soul (consciousness/spirit/essence). </p>
<p>Through an act of consciousness, our senses of the soul connect us with the &#8211; oneness/<br />
essence &#8211; that exists in all forms, in all things&#8230; here and everywhere&#8230; within and without. This ever-present &#8211; spiritual &#8211; feeling gives us depth. Meaning. Purpose. (A higher purpose.) </p>
<p>We feel &#8220;Onensess&#8221;.</p>
<p>It is a grandiose feeling.<br />
A feeling of accomplishment.<br />
A feeling of purposefulness.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br />
Can you be &#8220;spiritual&#8221; without a &#8220;God&#8221;?<br />
Absolutely, completely, unequivocally&#8230; Yes.<br />
Yes, you can.</p>
<p>(You are.)<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>For more information, read the book &#8220;A Natural Philosophy&#8221;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of you, by now, may have seen or heard of the :&#8221;There&#8217;s probably no God&#8221; promotional campaign. It is an interesting campaign. One that strikes at the heart of today&#8217;s humanity&#8217;s incertitudes.  One that is meant for people to ask the question: is there &#8211; or not &#8211; a &#8220;God&#8221;?</p>
<p>And then, if no God exists:</p>
<p>Who created the universe?<br />
Who are we?</p>
<p>What is the purpose of life?<br />
What is to be believed?<br />
What are we to think about?<br />
What happens to morality if its foundations are erroneous?<br />
Where are we going if none of what we believe in is true?<br />
What do we know?</p>
<p>Now, many oppose this campaign. &#8211; Hiding &#8220;the question&#8221; does not eliminate the other questions. Censuring books, work of arts, and public displays, does not make your &#8220;truth&#8221; more real.  &#8220;Grand Inquisitions&#8221;, the burning alive of the unbelievers, the silencing of the &#8220;opposition&#8221;  does not create a &#8220;God&#8221;. &#8211; All that you are showing is that your position is only &#8220;real&#8221; when you are looked-in behind closed doors (and closed minds).  </p>

<p>As a believer: You are an imperfect creation, a sinner, sitting at the edge of an insignificant (when compared to Heaven) universe.</p>
<p>In silence, you reflect. &#8211; No &#8220;God&#8221; exists -. </p>
<p>Day one:</p>
<p>1): You realize that your &#8211; place/space &#8211; is not at the edge but at the &#8211; center &#8211; of a powerful,<br />
      infinite, and eternal universe.<br />
2): You are &#8220;where&#8221; you should be. You are &#8220;who&#8221; you should be.<br />
3): A sense of freedom, purpose, and well-being overtakes your whole being.<br />
4): You take a deep breath.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>In one breath&#8230; </p>
<p>Your mind expands its universe of senses into a body.<br />
You walk the world of forms.<br />
Receiving sights, sounds, scents, tastes, and touch.<br />
(Awareness) </p>
<p>In another breath&#8230; </p>
<p>Your mind expand its universe of senses into a soul.<br />
You reach into the unformed essence.<br />
You envision, create, and attract. <br />
(Consciousness)</p>
<p>Your mind unifies body and soul into a &#8220;living&#8221; being.<br />
A living &#8211; human &#8211; being.</p>
<p>You.</p>
<p>You and the universe.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Day two:</p>
<p>You decide.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you will, for a moment - hush - all of your memorized &#8220;info&#8221; about God&#8217;.</p>
<p>Focus <strong>only</strong> on this - instant &#8211; . Look around you. Observe. Let all of your senses study your environment, your space, your mind, your body. Travel as far as you can - within and without -. You will conclude that &#8211; you &#8211; are a form surrounded by a multitude of forms. No &#8220;God&#8221;. Just nature.</p>
<p>That is &#8220;All&#8221;.<br />
And &#8211; All &#8211; is &#8220;It&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What I wish for you today&#8230;</p>
<p>Is that you come to understand that you were born free.</p>
<p>That you can regain the consciousness of that freedom. The freedom to live this life&#8230; for this life. You are at the center of a grandiose universe. You stand at the vortex of immense energies.</p>
<p>Your life is nature unfolding (and folding) all of its forces and powers through you. Through your thoughts, your dreams, your actions. Your desires. Your wishes.</p>
<p>Have a wonderful day.</p>
