Para-Normal?

Ah yes, the Philosopher's Stone, and in some parts, the Holy Grail. The Philosopher's Stone is a remnant of Alchemy (the Hermitic Sciences), spread worldwide from Egypt, starting with the First Kingdom, it was the migration of the first real organized system of a Solitary God so naturally is embedded in the very foundation of most world religions. Of course organized religion would have to get rid of the Mystique of Alchemy and anything pertaining to Hermes (Ancient Egypt's Solitary God), but the basic Transmutation of the base physically oriented person to the Awakening individual dedicated to the notion of a single God had to be kept under the mask of their own rendition. Of course the Mystic branch of any *One God* system, Gnosticism in the case of Christianity, broke away from the mainstay of the particular religion to dwell more on the Mystical perspective. So it is the Gnostics, Christian Alchemists, who kept the Philosopher's Stone alive and well in Christianity.

The Philosopher's Stone has never been *lost*, simply misplaced by the physical plane oriented. Though the Physical Alchemists hold that it is a necessary tool in our Transfiguration, our Awakening, our Enlightenment, many non-Alchemists have made such a Transition from Sleeping and Awakening. There are Deeper aspects of The Stone that can be used after Awakening, and The Stone being a necessary ingredient, though few True Alchemists trying to Create The Stone realize that what they say is True but that is not there Intent. Alchemy is an Honorable study, and one well worth any time spent in the study. It is a Metaphysical Study, and of little use to the physically oriented.

Indeed, modern Chemistry evolved out of Alchemy for there was such the need for a physical science. But you do not have to be a Chemist or Physicist or Mathematician or Astrologer or Astronomer or Sage of Wisdom Teachings or Shaman (which the True Alchemist must be all of and more), all you need is Openness and Honesty in The Study of The Philosopher's Stone. It may not make you an Alchemist, but it will give you a Clearer Perception of Life and our conditioned way of thinking and behavior.

No one Saves us but ourselves, no one can and no one may, others can Point to The Path, but we ourselves must Walk The Way. The "investigative work" is your's my Friends, for it is you who must Realize Eldorado.

If I may, who would want to spend the effort to Study anything if one would not want to glean some benefit from it ? If you Seek The Philosopher's Stone, be prepared to make some changes in your perception. Many leave the Search For The Philosopher's Stone short of their goal of Inner Transmutation, but none leave without beneficial change to their perspective of Life.

It has been said, figuratively of course, that on one shoulder sits an Angel and on the other shoulder sits a Devil -- could it be the illusion most call *conscience* that urges us to play a conditioned judgement game of what is *good and bad* ? The "trickster in motion" indeed my Friend, for IN Awakening there is no *good and bad* but rather whatever the Direct Experience IN the Moment IS. When there is no more memory of what is good and what is bad, when there is no projecting of our likes and dislikes into/onto What-IS IN the Moment, when we respond IN Compassion rather than react in opposition, THEN there is Love. The Compassionate offering of Help due to the Recognition of Sleep IS Love.

When there is separation, there is separation, and perception has very little to do with it -- unless one is Sleeping, of course. Then it would have everything to do with it. Awakening, perception and/or perspective and/or interpretation is seen as the Masks of the Grand Trickster and has little use in offerings of Compassion and Empathy for the plight of those struggling to begin their Awakening. Indeed, we must usually *read between the lines* and not focus our True Attention on the words spoken. For to focus on each word is to distract us from Realizing that which is behind or beyond mere language. So I would not be correcting choice of words or grammatical structure, this, as you said, would be of little concern when the Intention is Communication. Statements or offerings from here are but Pointers, and it is hoped that one would focus one's attention on where the finger Points and not on the finger itself. If we Point our finger toward the heavens, and we gaze in that direction, we can See the Wonders of Life unfold before us. But if instead, when we Point toward the heavens, and we focus on our finger, we see nothing but the finger.

Is not our whole life "personal experience" ? Some helpful and some not so helpful, some useful and some not so useful, but all are our personal experiences. I have not written my biography yet, and I am not sure that I could. For one writing his own biography would require dwelling in the past, and fooling oneself that the past is somehow as much a Reality as this very present instant Moment. Mentally constructing the past which is not Real, convincing oneself that it is Real, *believing* that such a construct is not an illusion of the conditioned mind, would, it would seem, be quite cumbersome. To taxing for my simple BEing. May I offer that the simple IS or IS-NOT is taxing enough. The past is but real only in our minds, so IN the Moment there is no past as there is no future, there is only the Moment from Moment to Moment. What has been Unfolding in the past has indeed established the Reality of this Moment, but there is but One Reality and that Reality IS right NOW. So it is only NOW that we can relate Realizations and Recognitions, and we can only relate the Realizations and Recognitions that we Directly Experience NOW. All else is but an Illusion of the Grand Trickster the conditioned mind.

The Wise Awakening Sage would identify with nothing -- not Source, not God, not ground of Being, not personal experiences or research, not anything, save the Reality of What-IS IN the Moment, Moment to Moment. That is, the Wise Awakening Sage would simply BE, projecting nothing into/onto the Direct Experience IN the Moment. There is no security to this, but rather that it simply IS, as they simply ARE

The foundation of Passion is not nuclear (physical) Dear Friend. The foundation of Passion is a State of BEing or even a State of Mind. It is our Drive to Embrace What-IS, our Will to Embrace What-IS, Embrace Truth, Embrace Reality, Embrace our Awakening, Embrace Life, and to Embrace ourselves. THAT is Passion. We seem to direct it toward some physical realm object or idea or image or meaning, but we lose the Inner Acceleration or True Passion. We lose the Passion that Jesus spoke of. Sleeping people speak of passion in terms of lust, and this is why they do not understand Inner Passion to Embrace our Divine Nature of Awakening. Once this Inner Passion is Embraced it spills over into every aspect of our lives, in everything we do or say. And leads to much confusion for the Sleeping. They do not understand this, so it is up to us to understand that they can not understand this and simply BE ourselves and *show* them rather than concentrate on *telling* them what we mean. A picture is worth a million words. Family member or not, friend or not, loved one or not, if they refuse to fathom True Passion we must simply let them BE as we want them to let us BE. Perhaps one day they will Wake-Up. It is not our responsibility to Wake them Up for they themselves must Walk the Way, we can only be Pointers to the Path.

YOUR story is YOUR story. Do not defame others in it's telling, but it is YOU expressing YOU. END. YOU are YOU. END. THEY are THEM. END. Passion is not about *what was* or even *what will be*, but rather *What-IS* right NOW this very instant present Moment. And it is so, Moment to Moment. END. They dwell in the past and so they are strangers to you Dear Friend, for YOU must Dwell IN the present. The past is not Real for it is done and gone, as the future is not Real for it is not yet. Ah but the present is What-IS, and so the only Reality that we have at our disposal. If they do not dwell with you in the present, they are strangers not only to you but also to Reality. You are not obligated to dwell in their past, for it is your obligation to maintain dwelling in the present. If they are unwilling to dwell where you ARE, smile and bid them to return when they are willing to. It is their game Dear Friend, and you only feed it by reacting to it. React not, stay in the present. When they give a war, do not go. Would there then still be a war ? If so, they will only have themselves to war with. END.

Remain steadfast IN the present and do not be shaken to react to a past that is not Real. A mere Illusion of memory, which is not Real nor can be True. When they play their game, treat it as such -- a game. That you can not play because the rules are their rules that are founded on Illusion. You do not understand Illusion for you do not dwell in Illusion. You dwell in the present. Illusion is not Real, and you can only understand what is Real. Smile and bid them to return when they would like to dwell *with you* in the Real present. It has been said to "be in the world but do not be of the world".
