The Reiki Cafe 

a few insights that could be handy...?!

1) being "afraid" is not always a bad thing. Take for example the following idea: "being afraid of making God and/or people angry" because we wish not to offend them. Imagine that the powerful God finds not much need to exercise power due the response to bad human behaviours. Instead He/She is our friend and great companion. It is a great feeling to have the wonderful Creator walking among His creation. Should He/She be allowed to do that peacefully?

2) finding out how our inner self are faring. indentify the inner struggle that lead to certain outward behaviours. (I find this useful). I know now that slience is very golden. Our deeds are known by some somehow....

3) forgive others for try to prove themselves worthy of something in unpleasant manners. I think we all need to be worthy of something.

4) situations are often too complicated for anyone to take sides.

5) reverse some common thinking/ psychology. e.g. instead of "if there is a problem, there maybe/ is a solution"; try "if there are solutions available then there must be problems that can be solved".

6) for any topic to hard to understand try something familiar to you that have the most in common to it. then work your way up....

7) cherish mainly the spoken words that are the results of a thorough (careful and complete) thought process (i.e. when careful thoughts have been given to questions etc.)

Hope these go down well. I do have faith that some peace and calm can exist if most of the civilians attempt something similiar to the above.

PS: Sorry about the formality!
post is opened to individual insights to peaceful and sincere ways of life. :)

Otoharo!

starjasmine, I relate to you desire to share with us who are peaceful and sincere. It is hard for me to reply to each topic however. I will summarize myself. I am currently focused on learning how to use my brain without getting stuck in it. I found today how I can do that (is anyone is interested.)

My perception of God is that HE/SHE/IT is not concerned about our daily lives. We are free to live as we choose to live. The concern is that we eventually choose to return to oneness, or Come Home. That is my currect choice. My difficulty is that when I use my intellect, I get stuck in it and bcome subject to the ego system. Today I learned how not to get stuck.

My perception of God is that he/She/It are not judgmental and it is important that we also not be judgmental. That means there IS no good or bad, there is only what works. As I live now, everything works!

The spoken words are powerful. I agree with that completely.

finality

Hi finality, I guess that I presented a tough topic. Do share any strongest messages received throughout the years; for some messages shade our lives. I care to hear and learn about them. This is one of my reason of posting. The another is my wish and belief that it is time to turn the table around to those waiting to emerge from the "circular" world (a place where really great and globally helpful hands are not strongly encouraged and supported). Maybe people lend a hand now and then. Eventually we need something more permanent. Prayers could be very strong by now if most of us spare moments to explore and express the deeper and dearer thoughts and good will. Better still with actions.

Just thoughts and wishes still. Need manifestation.

I don't if you only add the insights that maintain who you are. Don't worry about the actual discussion to most of my advice. I know we will all come to have our own special expression of peace and sincerity. I only wish that they are held as some of the basics of human existence. Also, to uplift the rest through inspirations......

thanks for all replys from the past, present and furture.

ps: feel free to add or post your own insights on this topic.
I know that there are days when "messages" flood my mind from above us. I hereby encourage all to explore, imploy and share ...... the opening and expanding of our views to anything recurring and continuous.... :)

Please do share about " learning how to use my brain without getting stuck in it". Do you mean that you found out how not to be overwhelmed by waht we learn ? I am curious...

Otoharo!

starjasmine, this refers to a long long stuggle to release ego and not allow any of the ego system to return. (Ego being what Firekeeper calls our Shadow). (Ego system being the way ego encompasses the whole world in it efforts to control human minds in order to stimulate fear and thus feed on that energy.)

I have shared in the past here on the cafe, how I lost immortality and am now regaining it. My Achilles heel so to speak, is that I can not use the intellect wihtout getting stuck in. Being stuck means that I can not get out of the intellect. While in that state, life is hum drum ho hum sort of nothingness. I choose to live, alive, and full of joy and wonder! Noone can live like that while in the intellect! My struggle has been very long and has taken all the resources I could find.

Yesterday, I found my answer. Mindfulness, as Firekeeper speaks of it. Being aware of all inner processes while they are occurring. Interveneing or interrupting them at will. By doing this, I discovered that talking is a completely different use of energy than mulling things over in the intellect. So I began to talk out loud about whatever I was doing and answering myself back. So I was in constant conversation, aloud. When so, I discovered input from the Holy into everything riaght at the momnent, not having to wait for a quiet time to meditate or pray about it. It was fantastic. I am now determined to stay in the energy of communicating aloud all day long. It is hard to maintain when I begin to tire becasue talking takes so much energy. This urges me to stop an activity before I tired myself out. That is also a benefit. espectially while working in the garden.

When I sit here alone, listening to the head chatter, I lose a lot! I do not do that any more. I keep up my own spirits. I am a good listener, so I turn my own skill to my own benefit!

finality

Thanks finality for sharing. I am also a type that communicates with my "invisible self". I hold the thought that "the closest persons to me is myself and the Spirit (the Creator)". We may understand what we make for ourselves as God understands what He has created. However, the relationship of God and humans takes on an amazing and unspeakable (precious plus holy) "dimension"/experience that we are not asked to fully understand but to trust, appreciate and respect. Also to return the blessing (and adoration) back to the Creator and pass our higher thoughts and Love onto the others.

There are people like the members of this cafe that have shown me that we can receive strangers as ourselves. Thanks for your warm welcome to all new comers to the cafe. Thanks for the welcome I received from people like yourself. :)

Otoharo!

Starjasmine, I comprehend what you are saying. Are you also saying you co-create with God?

finality

I have thought about that when I post the last one. Maybe we did. Jesus did (from what I gathered from reading etc).

I'm happy to have a being that understand us all too well. We don't have to fully explain our situations to the Holy. Rather, we agree that we know what the Holy has led us to see.... Then we make our move with Him/Her with any solutions we found while conversing (having a conversation).

The Earth was created with all inhabitants in mind (their needs considered). Horray, we can live really well just by working with nature and eating the natural food that come from it. :)

I don't think we ever got ill (or too ill) from eating the fresh food that well growth and nurtured. :)
