The 4th Dimension, Consider it Carefully (Chapter Eleven)
The subconcious part of your brain looks like this.
The 4th Dimension, Consider Carefully
Chapter Eleven
I was handed a “tough question” this morning – not to answer but rather to pose …to you, dear reader. Yesterday afternoon I thought I began to see where this chapter (11) might be headed.
As you recall, in the previous chapter (10) I introduced the other than conscious part of our brains as an “automaton” thusly:
“So then, if you also have a resident automaton in that beyond-your-consciousness part of your brain that you can program with your conscious declarations to continually work this out” (that is, bringing these body-bags we occupy into a continual, ongoing, subordinated connection with the SOURCE of everything), “indeed you are employing a powerful force to continue working behind the scenes – automatically” (toward that purpose).
Now then, perhaps I’ll be directed to weave into all this what I thought yesterday afternoon, that is, about where we might be headed, but that isn’t the “tough question.” The tough question isn’t for you to answer, but tough for me to ask because it displays the soft part of my underbelly-desire to not lose any of our audience because of my proclivity to delve into areas some consider bizarre.
The publisher, Ryan Bruce, quite often, and I’m sure appropriately so, changes the titles I put on articles or books.
Ryan often, quite fortunately, sees things from a different perspective than I. This is the reason I got off, just now, onto the subject of him changing titles …which has to do with what I was just given related to “where” we’re headed. Here’s a hint and it all relates to living in the 4th dimension: “Here” and “there” are the same …back to that in a moment.
Can any mind be set?
Living in the state of “Eternal Life” right now, this moment, requires a different mindset.
If I stop beating around the bush and just get to the question, right? Okay, here it is: Is it possible that what many think of as “prayer,” that is, petitioning “God” (bwoton) for change has little to do with the “effective prayer of a fervent man” that gets results?
That I often am the catalyst for people becoming angry is nothing new. I am often accused of deliberately making people angry. Whether that is my motive is arguable, but it doesn’t alter the fact; that is, some people get quite angry at some of the things I say.
One of those “things” is that I often refuse to pray for somebody who wants me to pray for their healing. What’s the point, I often ask, if you are not going to change your thinking that is causing the problem in the first place?
An incident seared into my memory bank that I precipitated by another question: A woman was wheeled in her wheel chair into a meeting at which I was sharing. I was shown immediately that she really didn’t want to be healed.
I asked her, “Do you really want to get up out of that wheelchair?”
Before she had an opportunity to respond, the woman who had wheeled her into the meeting, snapped at me, with considerable hostility: “Of course she wants to be out of there, what is the matter with you!!!”
A few more questions clearly demonstrated that, no, she really didn’t want to get “out of there.’’ She loved the attention she was getting and having other people attend to her and continually push here and there, wherever she wanted to go. When she had been able to walk she often felt neglected, unwanted and unloved. Her wheelchair, in her mind, had changed all that.
Some of the things that are obstacles to spiritual healing for many people are far more subtle …and some even insidious and not at all subtle if you understand what is really going on behind the scenes. …I just got a ‘beep’ that an e-mail came in – my, my, what a “coincidence!” …my sarcasm will surely irritate some, but consider that I am only trying to call attention to something and it is just a bit interesting that this particular e-mail should arrive at this particular moment!
The subject line says: “Mind Reading” – I already sent my response: Which basically was, “Are you ready for another perspective?” Here it is:
Mind Reading: We believe that God can read our minds, no problem.
Some people believe that satan can also read our minds, many believe that satan (and his little critters) can plant thoughts into our minds, but cannot read our minds. Here is what seems safe to me:
1. When praying to God He likes it when I pray out loud, but I don’t have to because He reads my mind and my heart. I can choose to pray out loud or silently. Praying silently I can pray anywhere, any time
of day or night, whether other people are around or not. The Bible encourages us to “pray without ceasing. Praying silently we can do that.
2. When giving satan orders (get out, etc.) I always do it out loud, I want to make sure that he and his critters can hear me.
Do you see a beautiful young woman or and old woman? Well your right.
This revealed a number of beliefs that may or may not be true, including from “God’s” perspective. Please understand that I’m not saying the person who sent this is “wrong.” I’m merely pointing out that there are a variety of points of view that are different than some of the points of view contained in the e-mail and all of them could be correct in different instances.
Which brings me back to why I raised the specter of Ryan changing titles from time to time and usually for good reason …somewhere back near the beginning of this treatise I made the statement that perhaps we’ll begin looking at the 4th dimension from a perspective by which we can employ it for effectively pursuing “success” in any area of human endeavor including, but not limited to, the arts, business, religion and sports (in alphabetical order).
I believe the original title I put on this was, “Converting 4th Dimension Power into Practical and Successful Living.” Ryan changed it to “How to Convert…” which makes far better sense as an attention grabbing headline.
What I write about has a twofold foundation; one, as I’ve already stated I “listen” and write what I “hear;” Two, I dig into my conscious memories of actual experiences. Granted, the first part may well, at times, be a subconscious nudge; but then, don’t forget, I’ve instructed that part of my brain to be subordinate, or submissive, if you prefer, to our SPIRIT-PARENT SOURCE and that in a continuum.
So then, here is one different perspective about “prayer.” It is quite clear (to me at least) that in the version of “The Lord’s Prayer,” put forth in Luke the 11th chapter in the original language, is that of Jesus training his own subconscious to bring into being on the “seen-with-physical-eyes-plane” of the 3rd dimension that which our SPIRIT-PARENT SOURCE had already decreed to be “God’s” will in what I’m calling the 4th dimension.
Look out, here comes another act of god!!!!
Again, what I’m calling the 4th dimension is that parallel existence ongoing, this moment, NOW, where “Big G God,” rules and not the little “g” one …now then, you’ll find it difficult to wrap your conscious brain around what is being said here if you refuse to accept a different possibility than what is propounded by many if not most religionists and that is that “Big G” God controls everything.
Some of those who don’t go quite as far as saying that “God caused some calamity or other,” insist that “God allowed such and such to happen.”
My retort to either is that “God allows me to breathe, so what?” Exclusions in some insurance policies still refer to “acts of God” which would be amusing if not so tragic.
Why tragic is because, in my way of thinking, too many people have the victim mentality that God “allowed” whatever to happen to them for purposes beyond their understanding or control …which is simply one more way to say “God did it.”
Related to this view, why do those same people go to a doctor, for the express purpose of undoing the “will of God?”
If we expand our thinking into realizing there are myriad perspectives; one of which is that there is a 4th dimension in which all of our preconceived notions are melted into hundreds of possibilities which beckon us to believe in all kinds of alternatives, because they exist RIGHT NOW.
Can both be true?
Scientists working in quantum physics have, to a large degree, bought into the concept of “simultaneity” a term coined by Nobel Prize winning physicist Niels Bohr to explain the phenomena of certain particles of atoms having the amazing ability to be in two different places at the same time – for a time many scientists argued that it really wasn’t simultaneity, but rather that the “speed of light,” the Newtonian principle that nothing could go faster, didn’t exist at the quantum level.
Our friend Niels solved that riddle by simply proving that BOTH are true. I said earlier that I would come back to the fact that there is neither “here” nor “there” in the 4th dimension. There you have it.
At almost every level of belief are opposing arguments that are solved by a very simple prospect …elements of all are true.
In this exciting arena of truth, business failure can be turned into success. Disease can be overcome into vibrant health. New records in every human endeavor are there just waiting to be attained because they already exist.
We are being ushered into the age of possibility …all we need to do to take part is get intimately connected to the SOURCE which/who really does control everything when we move into 4th dimension living.
I’m struck by two seemingly disparate thoughts. One that the foregoing paragraph is a perfect ending …and I’m perfectly willing to end it here, but…
The other thought is that we are just beginning! What now, Daddy? Er, uh, that’s next apparently. Number 12 coming right up.
