The Captive Unicorn

Dear friends, 

Last meeting while we were sharing angles for the second time about the formatory mind, this image came to me over and over again. This is how the formatory mind keeps us trapped, and we cannot approach life -- without our soap opera, our stories, our opinions -- just fresh and new, every second of every minute, naked.

Our precious Soul is tied to our body like this lovely Unicorn is tied with a delicate chain ... Maybe if we can get rid of the rigid formatory mind, our Unicorns will be able to visit all the sacred garden surrounding us.

I love you,

LdG

SOUL'S BREAKFAST - Day Ninety

More of Mervyn’s wisdom from 1998:

The centers judge each other, they don’t understand each other. Hydrogen 12 overrides the differences between the machines. Emotionally centered people must use their kings to understand what they want, reduce the speed 150,000 times and then explain it.

Whatever we go through in life we have to ‘let go.”
The only thing we have is the present moment.
The best way to deal with I’s from the past is to clear them. 
Look at the past with your new being and it will change your relationship to it.


Becoming a better person is the domain of the machine - souls can only become more awake.
The lamb must become a ram as the wolf won’t take on a full grown Ram.”


We often felt  that these lines from “To You” by Walt Whitman 
equally come from Mervyn to all of us:

“Whoever you are, now I place my hand upon you, that you be my poem,
I whisper with my lips close to your ear,
I have loved many women and men, but I love none better than you” 


Love, J and A

SOUL'S BREAKFAST - Day Eighty-nine

From one meeting of Rodney Collin and his students.

Q.- What is attention?

A.- The attention is intimately connected to the potential soul, because attention is subject to will.  If we really try and if we really wish to work on attention, to direct attention, to concentrate attention, to divide attention, it is only through will, and will is an attribute of the soul. By developing will, strengthening will, the soul will automatically grow.  And the most common way in which we can exert will is precisely to exert it on  attention.

Attention is an energy force, it is like an emanation, something that detaches from us. By the mere fact of being alive we are constantly releasing the matter of attention. Attention can be attracted or it can be completely diffused.  The most common is for the attention to wander from one object to another, because one is squandering this force without any goal.

Put down in writing all your goals. Then try to reduce them, to concentrate them. Because then you will see there is a larger goal, that embraces all these ramifications.

SOUL'S BREAKFAST - Day Eighty-eight

From Rodney Collin: Theory of Conscious Harmony

"God is not the same as consciousness; God is not the same as the Absolute. Because God is a sacred word which produces a Sacred echo. Consciousness and absolute are not sacred words, and do not produce this vibration, which immediately connect us with the truth, and in the sense of which it is impossible to lie and fear.

The body is a very wonderful and beautiful instrument. But there is a key-phrase in the Whirling Ecstasy we must never forget. It says simply:¨"Leave the body and come". This is very important. It is very clear - everything is said there. It doesn't mean we have to forget our body. It won´t prevent us from going to God. The body will take us to God or prevent us. It all depends on the use we make of it. We must make good use of it - but remember we have to leave it"....

Love, J and A

SOUL'S BREAKFAST - Day Eighty-seven

Dear God:

Help me to remember myself
And to avoid all Involuntary Action,
Through which alone
evil may manifest.
