Beste eclecticus,
Vanavond zullen we het - naast het thema 'Scheppingsstraal' - in de Werkgroep Zelfkennis hebben over Zelf-observatie en Zelf-herinnering. Zelf-observatie is geen Zelf-herinnering, maar het laat de mens inzien dat hij niet in staat zichzelf te herinneren, en het geeft hem een voorsmaakje van wat 'meer wakker zijn' en dus meer bewust te zijn van zichzelf zou kunnen betekenen. Hieronder vind je er een interessante, inleidende tekst over. Lees het alvorens deel te nemen...
Self-Remembering
For most people, even for educated and thinking people, the chief obstacle to their attaining the state of consciousness called Self-Remembering lies in the fact that they think they possess it already. They think that they remember themselves in everything they do and in everything they say, and they not only think that they are conscious at every moment and aware of themselves but believe that they are conscious of their inner lives also and fully aware of all the thoughts and emotions that pass through them in a continuous stream. And because they think they always remember themselves and act and speak with full consciousness and are fully aware of everything they say and do, they believe that they have real will and a permanent unchanging 'I' and that they have the ability to do - as, for example: that they can change themselves if they really wish to, or change their lives, or change other people, or do just as they like. But of course they cannot change themselves or their lives or other people or do just as they like, because they do not possess any real will, but many contradictory wills, nor have they any permanent 'I' but many changing 'I's and when they are doing something it is not from conscious will and conscious choice but from what only can happen at that moment to them. For just as in life everything happens in the only way in which it can possibly happen, and no one really does anything at all, although it looks as if people do, so is it in the case of a single man. Everything in his life takes place in the only way in which it can possibly take place, and as long as the man remains the same, everything else will be the same.
Look at today. What is the real explanation of what is happening in the world? The real explanation is that people are not conscious. They are asleep and acting in their sleep. And even if they feel something of this, they do not know how to awaken from the sleep or what they must do. Yet, since the creation of the world men have been told they are asleep and must awaken. How many times is this said in the Gospels: "Awake, watch, sleep not!" But people do not understand it, or they think it is a metaphor whereas it is literally true. If people awakened from sleep, if they began to remember themselves, the whole of life would change. And nothing can change in life unless people begin to awaken.
This Work teaches as a principle that Man is asleep and that his greatest and most important task is to awaken.
"Vind mensen, die in zichzelf zowel de motivatie als de aangeboren drijfveer hebben om aan hun Innerlijke Zelf te werken, en we zullen hen gidsen."
