“All-Channel Living”

The majority of people live limited lives because of limitations they place upon themselves. Although many would argue that life has struck them cruel blows and that is why their options are limited, others can be found who have risen above such conditions to have fuller and more complete lives. It is therefore not so much our circumstances that limit us, but it is rather the reactions of our mind to such conditions, based upon the state of consciousness that dominates our thinking.

Limitations about oneself and one’s life are generally caused by a comprehension of oneself that is born of and exists on an intellectual level of self-comprehension. Intellect, by its very nature, is limited in what it can know, comprehend and correctly evaluate. In essence, people see themselves only at the limited level of understanding of the intellect.

“Today’s Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry in Contrast with an Enlightened Society”

Except for a few souls in this world who are mystically aware, the practice of psychology and psychiatry will not create a truly mentally healthy society.  As it currently stands, the world standard for mental health is collective neurosis.  The occupation of the clinical psychologist and psychiatrist is to adjust the mind to be functional in a dysfunctional society.  In other words, what is called mental health is the ability to function within that which is collectively dysfunctional.  The illusions of one’s personal isolation must be made to fit into the illusions and trends of whatever is considered reality in present-day society.

The basis of identity as viewed by clinical psychology and psychiatry is that the self—one’s identity—is that of a personal ego identity. That is, it’s a product of an organism bumping up against its environment through a long period of time—first to form a simple awareness of itself, and eventually to evolve into an environmentally created identity or ego.  Put enough egos together and you form an ego society.  For whatever reason, if one ego cannot function within the collective ego society in which it dwells, it is then considered dysfunctional, and the role of the mental health clinician is to adjust it—to get it back into step with the collective thinking or the neurosis of today’s ego society.

Audio version read by Rev. Steven Lane Taylor, B.Msc. – “Multi-Dimensional Universes”

While physical science is moving increasingly to an acceptance of multi-physical universes, mystics—having long since known this—are aware of an even greater complexity: numerous nonphysical dimensions within each physical dimension.

Expanding this reality from a collective one to each individual’s human reality, there comes a realization to every soul on life’s eternal path that they and all other human beings exist in different dimensions simultaneously. An expansion of inner awareness brings the realization that the soul, or true Self, exists in many dimensions, in several different expressions of beingness.

“Starting Anew: The Metaphysical Dynamics of Beginning a New Year”

The beginning of each New Year symbolizes the possibility of a new beginning or an improvement over what was. It can be a dream or a hope of what can be. To one who is intimately involved with one’s soul in a physical sense, it can be the anticipation that Divine Presence will somehow touch one’s life with increased blessings of some kind in the New Year.

To most people, a New Year does indeed present an opportunity for positive expectation, that somehow, in some way, the possibility exists that things will be better. In order for such dreams and wishes to become realities, the mind must adopt an attitude and state of consciousness that is expectant of improvement, both inwardly and outwardly, and willing to take the action necessary to give energy to one’s thoughts in the day-to-day world of one’s environment.
