LOVE

Starting from school-desks, students should understand fully that which is called
LOVE.

Fear and dependency are often confused with Love, however they are not.

Students depend on their parents and teachers and it is clear that they respect and
fear them at the same time.
Children and teenagers depend on their parents for clothing, food, money, shelter,
etc., and clearly they always feel protected. They know they depend on their parents
and for this reason respect and even fear them, but this is not Love.

As proof of what we are saying, we can verify exactly that any child or teenager
trusts more his school friends than his own parents.
Really and truly, these children and teenagers talk with their school friends about
intimate things that they would never discuss with their own parents.
This is showing us that there is no real trust between children and their parents,
that there is no true Love.

It is urgent to understand that there is a radical difference between Love and that
which is fear, respect, dependency.
It is urgent to give due respect to our parents and teachers, but not to confuse this
respect with Love.
Respect and love should be intimately joined but we should not confuse one with
the other.

Parents fear for their children and want the best for them, a good job, a wonderful
marriage, security, etc., and confuse this fear with true Love.

It is necessary to understand that without TRUE LOVE it is impossible for parents
and teachers to guide new generations wisely, even though they might have good
intentions.

The path that leads to the abyss is paved with good intentions.

Let us look at the case known worldwide as "Rebel Without A Cause". This is a
mental epidemic that has spread throughout the world. Hundreds of "Rich Kids",
said to be spoilt, cherished and loved by their parents who attack defenseless
pedestrians, beat and rape women, steal, stone, hang around in gangs causing
damage to everything, they are disrespectful to teachers, parents, etc. "The Rebels
Without A Cause" are the result of lack of true Love.

Tbc..
Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:44am On Dec 25, 2019
Where there exists true Love, there cannot exist "Rebels Without A Cause".

If parents really loved their children they would know how to guide them
intelligently and there would be no "Rebels Without A Cause".
"Rebels Without A Cause" are the result of bad guidance.

Parents have not felt enough Love for them to really dedicate themselves to guiding
their children wisely.

Modern parents only think of money and of giving their children more and more;
the latest car, the latest fashion in clothes, etc., but they do not really love. Parents
do not truly love, they do not know how to love and the result is the "Rebels
Without A Cause".


The superficiality of this era is due to a lack of true Love.

Modern life is like a shallow pond, no depth to it.

In the profound lake of life many creatures can exist, a lot of fish, but a puddle by
the side of the road is soon dried up by the rays of the sun and then the only thing
left behind is mud, poverty and ugliness.

It is impossible to understand the beauty of life in all its glory if we have not learnt
to Love.
People confuse respect and fear with Love.

We respect our superiors, fear them and then we think we love them.

Children fear their parents and teachers, respect them and then think they love
them.
The child fears the whiplash, authority, bad grades, scolding at home or in school,
etc., and then thinks he really loves his parents and teachers but actually he fears
them.
We depend on the JOB, on the BOSS. We fear the misery of staying unemployed
and then we believe that we love the BOSS, and we even watch out for his interests,
take care of his interests, but that is not love. That is fear.

Many people are afraid of thinking for themselves about the mysteries of life and
death. They are afraid to inquire, investigate, understand, study, etc., and then they
exclaim, "I love God, and that is Enough!"

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:23am On Dec 26, 2019
They believe that they love God, but in reality, they do not love, they fear.

During a war, a wife feels that she adores her husband more than ever and hopes
with infinite anxiety that he returns home, but in reality, she does not love him. She
is simply afraid to be left without a husband, without protection, etc.

Psychological slavery, depending on someone, is not love. It is merely Fear and that
is all.

A child at school depends on his teacher and it is obvious that he fears expulsion,
low grades, reprimands, and many times believes that he loves the teacher but what
happens is that he fears him.

When a wife is pregnant or in danger of death because of whatever illness, her
husband believes that he loves her much more, but what is really happening is that
he fears losing her. He depends on her for many things, such as food, sex, laundry,
caresses, etc., and is afraid of losing her. That is not Love.

Everyone says that he adores everybody but that is not the case. It is very rare to
find someone in life who knows how to truly Love.

If parents truly loved their children, if children truly love their parents and teachers
truly loved their students, no wars could exist. Wars would be one hundred percent
impossible.

What happens is that people do not understand what Love is and every fear, every
psychological slavery, every passion, etc., is confused with Love.

People do not know how to Love, if they did, life would be a paradise.

Lovers believe that they love and many would swear with blood that they love.

However, they are only impassioned. Once that passion is satisfied, the sandcastle
falls to the ground.
Passion tends to fool the Mind and the Heart. Everyone with passion believes that
he is in love.
It is very rare in life to find a couple truly in Love. Impassioned couples abound,
but it is very difficult to find a couple in Love.
All artists sing of love but they do not know what Love is and confuse Passion with
Love.
If there is something very difficult in life, it is to avoid confusing Passion with Love.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:19am On Dec 27, 2019
Passion is sexual a hundred per cent. Passion is beastly but sometimes it is also
very refined and subtle. It is always confused with Love.


Teachers should teach students and teenagers how to distinguish between Love an
Passion. Only in this way will many tragedies in life be prevented later on.

Teachers are obliged to encourage responsibility in students, therefore they should
properly prepare them so that they do not fall themselves into tragedies of life.

It is necessary to understand what Love is, for it cannot be mixed with jealousies,
passions, violence, fear, attachments, psychological dependence, etc.

Love, unfortunately, does not exist in human beings, and it is not something that
can be acquired, bought, or cultivated like green house plant.

Love should be born in us. It is only born when we have thoroughly understood the
hatred, fear, sexual passions, psychological slavery and dependence we carry
within.


We should understand what these psychological defects are, and how they are
processed within us, not only on the intellectual level of life, but also in other
hidden and unknown levels of the subconscious.

It is necessary to take out all those defects from the many windings of the mind.
Only in this way is Love born within us in a spontaneous and pure form.
It is impossible to try to transform the world without the flame of Love. Only Love
can truly transform the world.

THE MIND

By experience we have been able to prove that it is impossible to understand what
Love is, until we have completely understood the complicated problem of the mind.

Whoever supposes that the mind is the brain is completely mistaken. The mind is
energetic, subtle and can become independent of matter. It transports itself to very
remote places to see and hear what is happening in those places under certain
hypnotic states or during normal sleep.


In laboratories of parapsychology, noteworthy experiments are made on
individuals in a hypnotic state.

Many people in a hypnotic state have been able to give minute detail about events,
people and situations that have been taking place during their hypnotic trance in
very remote distances.

After these experiments, scientists have been able to verify the reality of the
information concerning the facts and accuracy of events.

With these experiments in laboratories of parapsychology, it has been totally
demonstrated through observation and experience that the brain is not the mind.

Indeed, we can truly say that the mind can travel through time and space,
independently of the brain, to see and hear things that happen in remote places.

The reality of extrasensory perception has already been completely proved and only
a crazy person or an idiot, could think of denying the reality of extrasensory
perception.

The brain is made to elaborate thought but it is not thought. The brain is merely an
instrument of the mind, however it is not the mind.

We need to study the mind in depth if we truly want to know fully that which is
called Love.

The mind of children and young people, are more elastic, ductile, quick, alert, etc.

There are many children and young people who enjoy asking their parents and
teachers, about this, that and the other. They want to know something more, that is
why they ask, observe, see certain details that adults do not appreciate or do not
perceive.

As the years go by and we become older, the mind sets itself little by little.

tbc...
Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:24am On Jan 02, 2020
The minds of old people are set, fixed, and would not change for anything in the
world.

Old peoples' minds are already fixed, and like this they die, they do not change.

Everything is elaborated from a fix point of view.

The "nonsense" of old people, their prejudices set ideas, etc., all appear like a rock,
a stone that does not change in any way. That is why people commonly say: "That's
the way I am, always have been and always will be".

It is urgent for teachers who are in charge of forming the personality of students, to
study the mind in depth so that they are able to intelligently orientate new
generations.

It is painful to understand how the mind becomes fixed little by little as time goes
by.

The mind is the killer of what is real and true. The mind destroys Love.

Whoever arrives at old age is no longer capable of Loving because his mind is full of
painful experiences, prejudices, set ideas like hard rocks.

There are dirty old men who believe they are still capable of Loving, but what is
actually happening is that they are full of senile sexual passions and confuse
passion with Love.

Every "dirty old man or woman" passes through tremendous lustful, passionate
states before dying and they believe that this is Love.

It is impossible for old people to love because the mind destroys it with its
"nonsense", "set ideas", "prejudices", "jealousy", "experiences", "memories",
"sexual passions", etc.

The Mind is Love's worst enemy. In super-civilized countries, Love no longer exists
because people's minds only smell of factories, bank accounts, retails products, etc.

There are many traps for the mind and the mind of every person is well bottled up.

Some have bottled their minds in abominable communism: others have bottled it
in heartless capitalism.

There are some who have bottled their mind in jealousy, hate, desire to be rich and
have a good social position, attachments to certain people, or attachment to their
own suffering and family problems, etc.


People love bottling up the mind. Few are those who decide to truly smash the
bottle to pieces.

Tbc...
Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:22am On Jan 05, 2020
We need to free the mind, but people love slavery, and it is very rare to find
someone in life who does not have the mind totally bottled up.

Teachers should teach their students all these things. They should teach new
generations to observe their own mind, to investigate and understand it. Only
through profound understanding can we prevent the mind from crystallizing,
freezing and becoming bottled up.

The only thing that can transform the world is Love, but the mind destroys Love.

We need to study our own mind, observe, investigate it profoundly, truly
understand it. Only in this way, in becoming masters of ourselves, of our own
mind, will we kill the killer of Love and truly be happy.

Those who live beautifully fantasizing about Love, who live making projects about
Love, who want Love to work in accordance to their likes and dislikes, projects and
fantasies, norms and prejudices, memories and experiences, etc., will never be able
to really know what Love is. They have in fact, become enemies of Love.

It is necessary to understand fully what the processes of the mind are in the state of
accumulation of experiences.

Many times a teacher justly reprimands but sometimes he/she does so stupidly and
without any true reason, without understanding that every unjust reprimand
remains in the minds of students. The result of such a mistaken procedure is
usually the loss of Love for the teacher.


The mind destroys Love and that is something that school, college and university
teachers should never forget.

It is necessary to deeply understand all those mental processes that put and end to
the beauty of Love!

It is not enough to be a parent; it is necessary to know how to Love. Parents believe
that they love their children because they have them, because the children belong
to them, such as when someone owns a bicycle, a car or a house.

That sense of possession and dependence is usually confused with Love but can
never be Love.

Teachers of our second home which is school, believe they Love their students
because they are in charge of them but that is not Love. The sense of possession or
dependence is not Love.

The mind destroys Love and only by comprehending all the mistaken fuctionalisms
of our mind, our absurd way of thinking, our bad customs, mechanical habits,
wrong way of looking at things, etc., can we come to live and truly experience that
which does not belong to time and which is called Love.

Tbc...
Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:53am On Jan 06, 2020
Whoever wants love to transform itself into a piece of their mechanical routine;
whoever wants Love to walk upon the mistaken track of their own prejudices,
cravings, fears, experiences of life, selfish way of looking at things, mistaken way of
thinking, etc., do in fact put an end to Love because the latter never allows itself to
be subdued.

Whoever wants Love to works as "I like", "I desire", "I think", lose Love because
Cupid the God of Love, is never ready to let himself be enslaved by the Ego.

We have to annihilate the "Ego", the "Myself", the "Id", so we do not lose the child
of Love.


The Ego is a bunch of memories cravings, fears, hatreds, passions, experiences,
selfishness, envies, lust, etc.


Only by understanding each defect separately, by studying and directly observing
it, not only in the intellectual region but also in all the subconscious levels of the
mind, will each defect disappear as we die from moment to moment. Only in this
way will we achieve the disintegration of the Ego.

Whoever wants to bottle Love up within the horrible traps of the Ego, loses it and
stays without it because Love can never be bottled up.

Unfortunately people want Love to behave according to their habits, desires,
customs, etc. People want to submit Love to the Ego and that is absolutely
impossible, since Love does not obey the "EGO".

Couples in love or better said, couples with passion for each other, suppose that
Love should keep faithfully within the limits of their own desires, concupiscences,
errors, etc., and in this way they are totally wrong.

"Let's talk about us!", say couples in love or sexually passionate for each other, who
are plentiful in this world. Then we hear conversations, projects, desires and goals.
Each has something to say, he or she puts forward projects, desires, his or her way
of looking at things of this life and each wants Love to move like a train on steel
tracks forged by the mind.

How wrong, how lost are these couples in Love or with passions! How far away
from reality they are!
Love does not obey the Ego and when partners want to chain it down by the neck
and submit it, it escapes leaving the couple in disgrace.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:24am On Jan 07, 2020
The mind has a bad habit of comparing. A man compares one girlfriend to another,
a woman compares one man to another. A teacher compares one student to
another student, as if all of them do not deserve the same appreciation. Truly, all
types of comparison are abominable.

Whoever contemplates a beautiful sunset and compares it to another does not
really know how to understand the beauty he has before his very eyes.

Where there is comparison, there is no true Love. A father and a mother who really
love their children will never compare them to anyone. They will simply love them
and that is all.

A husband who loves his wife never makes the mistake of comparing her to anyone
else. He loves her and that is all.


The teachers who really love their students will never discriminate and never
compare one with another. They truly love them and that is all.

A mind divided by comparisons and enslaved by duality's destroys Love.

A mind divided by the struggle of opposites is not capable of understanding the
new, it becomes petrified and frozen.
The mind has many depths, regions, subconscious areas, labyrinths; but the
worthiest is the Essence, the Conscience, which is in the centre.

When duality's ceases to exist, when the mind becomes integrated, serene, quiet,
profound; when it no longer compares, then the Essence, the Conscience, awakens,
and this should be the true objective of Fundamental Education.

Let us distinguish between Objectivity and Subjectivity. In Objectivity there is
awakened Conscience. In Subjectivity there is sleep Conscience, Subconsciousness.
Only Objective Conscience can enjoy Objective Knowledge.

The intellectual knowledge that is actually received by students attending schools,
colleges and universities is one hundred percent Subjective.

Objective Knowledge cannot be acquired without an Objective Conscience.
Students should first achieve Self-Consciousness and then Objective Conscience.
Only through the Path of Love, can we achieve Objective Conscience and Objective
Knowledge.
It is necessary to understand the complex problem of the mind if we truly want to
tread the path of Love.

KNOWING HOW TO LISTEN

In the world there are many orators who astonish with their eloquence, however,
few are those who know how to listen, to know how to listen is very difficult.

When a TEACHER or LECTURER speaks, the audience seems to be very attentive
as if following in detail each word of the speaker. Everything indicates that they are
listening, that they are in a state of alertness, but in the psychological depth of each
individual there is a secretary that translates each word of the speaker.

This SECRETARY is the "EGO", the Myself, the I's. The job of this secretary
consists in misinterpreting, in mistranslating the words of the speaker.

The EGO translates in accordance with its prejudices, preconceptions, fears, pride,
anxieties, ideas, memories, etc.

Students and people who together constitute the listening audience, are not really
listening to the speaker. They are listening to themselves, their own Ego, their
beloved Machiavellian Ego that is not willing to accept what is Real, the Truth and
the Essential.

Only in a state of alert Novelty, with a Spontaneous Mind, free from the burden of
the past, in a state of full Receptivity, can we listen without the intervention of that
wretched ill-omened secretary, the Ego.

When the mind is conditioned by memory, it only repeats what it has accumulated.

A mind conditioned by experiences of so many yesterdays can only see the present
through the cloudy lens of the past.

If we want to know how to listen, if we want to learn how to listen, to discover the
new, we should live in accordance with the philosophy of the present Moment.

It is urgent to live from moment to moment, without the preoccupations of the past
and without the projects of the future.

The Truth is the unknown from moment to moment. Our minds should always be
alert, in complete attention, free form prejudices, preconceptions, so as to really be
receptive.

Schoolteachers should teach their students the profound significance contained in
knowing how to listen.

It is necessary to learn to live wisely, refining our senses, refining our behaviour,
our thoughts and our feelings.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:23am On Jan 09, 2020
If we do not know how to listen, and we are not capable of discovering the new
from moment to moment, it is useless to have a great academic background.

We need to refine attentions, to refine our manners, refine our people, our things,
etc.

It is impossible to be truly refined when we do not know how to listen.

Crude, rough, deteriorated, degenerated minds never know how to listen, never
know how to discover the new. Those minds only understand in a mistaken way the
absurd translations of that satanic secretary called the EGO.



To be refined is something very difficult and it requires complete attention.

Someone can be a very refined person, in fashion, in suits, dresses, gardens, cars
and friendships, however, he will continue being rough, crude and unpleasant
within.

Whoever knows how to really live from moment to moment, treads the path of true
refinement.

He who has a receptive, spontaneous, integral, alert mind, walks on the path of
authentic refinement.

Whoever opens himself to everything new, abandoning the burden of the past,
preconceptions, prejudices, jealousies, fanaticisms, etc., walks victoriously along
the path of authentic refinement.

The degenerated mind lives imprisoned in the past, in preconceptions, pride, selfesteem, prejudices, etc.
The degenerated mind does not know how to see new things, does not know how to
listen; it is conditioned by Self-Esteem.


The fanatics of Marxism-Leninism do not accept new things, do not admit the
fourth characteristic of all things, the fourth Dimension, because of pride. They
love themselves too much, they become attached to their own absurd materialistic
theories and when we place them in the field of actual facts, and when we
demonstrate the absurdity of their sophisms they raise their left arm, look at their
wristwatch and give an evasive excuse to leave.

Those are degenerate minds, decrepit minds that do not know how to listen nor
how to discover the new, that do not accept reality because they are imprisoned in
Self-Esteem. Minds that love themselves too much, minds that do not know about
cultural refinements, crude, course minds, rough minds, that only listen to their
beloved EGO.

Fundamental Education teaches how to listen, teaches how to live wisely.

Teachers of schools, colleges and universities should teach their students the real
path of true vital refinement.

It is of no use to spend ten or fifteen years in schools, colleges and universities if on
coming out, we are internally true pigs in our thoughts, ideas, feelings, and habits.


Fundamental Education is needed urgently because the new generations represent
the beginning of a new era.

WISDOM AND LOVE

Wisdom and Love are the two main pillars of every true civilization.

On one pan of the scales of Cosmic Justice we should place Wisdom, on the other
we should place Love.

Wisdom and Love should balance each other mutually. Wisdom without Love is a
destructive element. Love without Wisdom can lead us into error, "Love is Law but
Conscious Love".


It is necessary to study much and acquire knowledge but it is also urgent to develop
the Spiritual Being within us.

Knowledge without the Spiritual Being well developed within us in a harmonious
way becomes the cause of that which is called knavery.

The Being well developed within us but without intellectual knowledge of any kind
gives rise to silly Saints.

A silly Saint possesses very developed Spiritual Being but since he does not have
intellectual knowledge, he cannot do anything because he does not know how to.

A silly Saint has the power of doing but he can not do because he does not know
how to.

Intellectual knowledge without the Spiritual Being well developed produces
intellectual confusion, perversity, pride, etc.



During the Second World War thousands of scientists devoid of any spiritual
elements in the name of science and humanity committed terrible crimes with the
purpose of carrying out scientific experiments.

We need to form a powerful intellectual culture. However, very well balanced with
true Conscious spirituality.

We need Revolutionary Ethics and a Revolutionary Psychology if we really want to
dissolve the EGO in order to develop the True spiritual BEING within us.

Unfortunately, for lack of Love, people use the intellect in a destructive way.

Students need to study science, history, mathematics, etc.

It is necessary to acquire vocational skills with the purpose of being useful to our
fellow beings.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:56am On Jan 13, 2020
It is necessary to study, it is indispensable to accumulate basic knowledge, however
fear is not indispensable.

Many people accumulate skills because of fear; they are afraid of life, death,
hunger, misery, to "what people will say", and for this reason they study.

One should study because of Love towards our fellow men with the desire of
serving them better but one should never study because of fear.

In practical life we have been able to prove that all those students that study
because of fear, sooner or later become rascals.

We need to be sincere with ourselves in order to observe and discover in ourselves
all the processes of fear.
In life we should never forget that fear has many phases. Sometimes fear is
confused with courage. Soldiers on the battlefield seems to be very brave but in
reality they move and fight due to fear. A person who commits suicide seems at first
sight to be very brave, but in reality he is a coward who is afraid on life.

All rascals in life appear to be very brave but deep down they are cowards.

Rascals often use their profession and power in a destructive way when they are
afraid. For example Castro Ruz in Cuba.

We never pronounce ourselves against the experience of practical life or against the
cultivation of intellect but we condemn the lack of Love.


Knowledge and experience of life become destructive when there is lack of Love.

The Ego usually traps intellectual knowledge and experience when that which is
called Love is absent.

Husbands and wives should always feel as if they were recently married, forgetting
the past and happily living the present.

Love and resentments are incompatible atomic substances. In true love, no
resentments of any kind can exist. Love is eternal forgiveness.


Love exists in those who feel true anguish for the suffering of their friends and
enemies. True love exists in him who wholeheartedly works for the wellbeing of the
humble, poor and needy.

Love exists in him who, in a natural and spontaneous way, feels sympathy for the
peasant who waters the furrow with the sweat of his brow; for the villager who
suffers; for the beggar who asks for a coin; and for the humble dog in anguish and
sickness which dies of hunger on the roadside.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:23am On Jan 15, 2020
When we help someone wholeheartedly, when in a natural and spontaneous way,
we care for a tree and water the flowers in the garden without anyone demanding it
from us, then authentic generosity, true sympathy and love exist.

Unfortunately people are not truly generous to the world.

People are only concerned with their own selfish gains, desires, knowledge,
experiences, sufferings, pleasures, etc.

Many people exist in the world who possess only false generosity. False generosity
exists in the astute politician, in the electoral "fox" who spends money with the goal
of obtaining power, prestige, position, wealth, etc. We should not confuse false
generosity with true generosity. True generosity is absolutely disinterested but can
easily be confused with the selfish and false generosity of political "foxes" capitalist
crooks, and satyrs who desire women, etc.

Generosity should come from our hearts. True generosity is not of the mind.

Authentic generosity is the perfume of the heart.

If people were generous, they would forget resentments accumulated in their
memories, all the painful experiences of the many yesterdays and would learn to
live from moment to moment, always happy, always generous, full of true sincerity.

Unfortunately, the Ego is memory and lives in the past, it always wants to return to
the past. The past overcomes people, destroys happiness, kills love.

A mind bottled up in the past can never fully understand the profound significance
of the present moment in which we live.

Many people write to us seeking consolation, asking for a precious ointment to heal
their painful heart, but few are those who worry about comforting the afflicted.

The Ego abuses experiences and the intellect by using them to grow stronger.

On disintegrating the Ego, experiences and the intellect remain in the hands of the
INTIMATE BEING and all abuse then becomes impossible.

Every student should guide himself on the vocational path and study in depth all
theories related to his vocation.

Studies and the intellect do not harm anyone, but we should not abuse the intellect.

Tbc..
Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:57am On Jan 16, 2020
We need to study to avoid abusing the mind. He who wants to study theories of
different vocations, who wants to harm others with the intellect, who practices
violence on another's mind, etc., abuses the mind.

It is necessary to study professional and spiritual subjects in order to have a
balanced mind.

It is urgent to arrive at an intellectual and spiritual SYNTHESIS if we really want a
balanced mind.

Teachers of schools, colleges and universities should study our Revolutionary
Psychology in depth if they really want to lead their students along the path of
FUNDAMENTAL REVOLUTION.

It is necessary that students acquire SPIRITUAL BEING and develop the TRUE
BEING in themselves so that they leave school transformed into responsible
individuals, and not silly Rascals.


Wisdom without Love is useless. Intellect without Love only produces rascals.

Wisdom in itself is an Atomic Substance, atomic capital that should only be
administered by individuals filled with true Love.

love neither are they loved.

Real love is something unknown to people who confuse it very easily with passion
and fear.
If people were capable of loving and being loved, wars should be impossible on the
face of the earth.

Many marriages could be truly happy but unfortunately they are not, due to old
resentments accumulated in their memories.


If married couples were generous, they would forget the painful past and would live
fully; filled with true happiness.

The mind kills and destroys love. Experiences, disagreement, jealousy, etc., when
accumulated in our memory, destroy love.

Many resentful wives could be happy if they were generous enough to forget the
past and live in the present adoring their husbands.


Many husbands could be truly happy with their wives if they were generous enough
to forgive old errors and forget quarrels and unhappy situations accumulated in
their memories.


It is necessary and urgent that married couples understand the profound meaning
of the present moment.

Many people write to us about the miserable state they live in but very few are
those who break their only loaf of bread, which will satisfy their own hunger, to
share it with others in need.

People do not want to understand that a cause exists behind any effect and that
only by changing the cause do we modify the effect.

The Ego, our beloved Ego, is energy which has lived in our ancestors and which has
given rise to certain past causes whose present effects condition our existence.

We need Generosity to modify causes and to transform effects, to wisely guide the
ship of our existence and to radically transform our own life.


Real effective generosity is not of the mind. Authentic sympathy, halts generosity of
the heart and annihilates within us the delicious perfume of love.

Fear is the root of all corruption, the secret origins of all wars, the mortal poison
that degenerates and kills.

School, college and university teachers should understand the need to place their
students on the path of true generosity, courage, and sincerity of the heart.


The clumsy, rotten people of past generations, instead of understanding the lethal
poison called fear, have cultivated it like an ill-fated flower in a green house. The
result of such an action has been corruption, chaos and anarchy.

Teachers should understand the critical times in which we live today and the need
to build up future generations on a solid base of revolutionary ethics that is in tune
with the atomic era, which in these moments of pain and suffering is dawning
among the majestic sounds of thought.

Fundamental education bases itself on revolutionary psychology and on
revolutionary ethics in tune with the new vibrating rhythm of this new era.

A sense of cooperation should totally displace the horrible battle of selfish
competition. It becomes impossible to know how to cooperate when we exclude the
effective and revolutionary principle of generosity.

It is urgent to fully understand, not only on the intellectual level but also in the
distinct unconscious corners of the subconscious mind, what the lack of generosity
and the horror of selfishness is.

Only by realizing what selfishness and lack of generosity really are can the
delicious fragrance of TRUE LOVE and EFFECTIVE GENEROSITY,
which is not of the mind, burst forth in our hearts.

UNDERSTANDING AND MEMORY

To remember is to try to store in the mind what other people have told us, what has
happened to us, what we have hear, seen or read, etc.

Teachers want their students to store faithfully in their memory their words, their
phrases, what is written in schoolbooks, entire chapters, heavy home-works, etc.

To pass tests means to remember what we have been told and what we have
mechanically read. It means to verbalise memory, to repeat everything that we have
stored in our memory like parrots.

It is necessary that new generations understand that repeating everything in the
memory like a record does not mean having understood anything in depth. To
remember is not to understand. The memory belongs to the past; it is something
dead that no longer has life.

It is imperative and of great contemporary importance that all students in
education really understand the deep meaning of profound Understanding.

To Understand is something immediate, direct, something that we live intensely,
something that we experience profoundly and which inevitably is transformed into
intimate means of conscious action.

To remember or to recall is something dead, it belongs to the past and
unfortunately it becomes and ideal, a motto, and idea, that we want to imitate
mechanically and follow unconsciously.

In true Understanding, in profound Understanding, in intimate Understanding
there is only the pressure of the Conscience, constant pressure born from the
essence that we carry within.

Real Understanding manifests itself as spontaneous natural and simple action, free
of the depressing process of choice, pure without indecisions of any type.

Understanding transformed into secret means of action is splendid, wonderful,
edifying and essentially dignifying.


Calculation is the action based on recalling what we have read, the ideal we aim at,
the norm of behaviour that we have been taught, of the accumulated experiences in
memory, etc. It depends on depressing option, it is dual, based on conceptual
choice which only leads inevitably to error and pain.

To adapt action to remembrance, to try to modify action so that it coincides with
memories accumulated in us, is something artificial, absurd, without spontaneity
and can inevitably only lead to error and pain.

To pass exams, can be accomplished by any dolt who has a good dose of astuteness
and memory.

To understand subjects that have been studied and which one is going to be
examined on, is something very different from memorizing subjects, it belongs to
true intelligence which should not be confused with intellectualism.

People who want to base all the actions of their life on ideals, theories and memory
of all types accumulated in the warehouses of the mind, always go around
comparing, and where comparison exists, envy also exists.

People compare
themselves, their children and relatives, with neighbours and neighbours' children
and relatives. They compare their house, furniture, chothes and all their material
things with those of their neighbours and people in society.

They compare their
ideas, intelligence of their children, etc., with ideas and intelligence of other people,
this results in envy which is transformed into the hidden cause of action.

Unfortunately for this world, the whole mechanism of society is based on envy and
acquisition. The whole world envies the whole world. We envy ideas, things, people
and we want to acquire more and more money, new theories, new ideas that we
accumulate in our memory, new things so as to dazzle our neighbors, etc.

In real, true understanding, there exists true love and not mere verbalization of
memory.

Things we remember, that which is confided to memory, soon is forgotten because
memory is unfaithful. Students deposit in the warehouses of memory, ideals,
theories and complete texts that are useless in practical life because in the end they
disappear from memory without leaving a single trace.

People who only read mechanically and enjoy storing many theories in the
storerooms of memory, destroy the mind, they damage it pathetically.

We do not pronounce ourselves against true, profound and conscious study based
on in-depth comprehension. We only condemn antiquated methods of
extemporaneous pedagogy, all mechanical systems of studying, all memorizing, etc.

Remembering is superfluous where there exists true understanding.

We need to study, we need useful books, teachers, spiritual guides, etc., but it is
necessary to understand fully the teachings and not merely to store them in the
storerooms of the unfaithful memory.


We cannot be truly free as long as we commit the mistake of comparing ourselves
with the stored recollections and ideals in our memory, and with what we covet to
be or not to be.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:55am On Jan 22, 2020
When we truly understand a teaching, we do not need to remember it nor convert it
to an ideal.

For as long there is comparison of what we are here and now, with what we want to
be later on; as long as there is comparison of our practical life with an ideal or
model to which we want to adapt, there cannot exist true love.

All comparison is disgusting, brings fear, envy, pride; fear of not obtaining what we
want, envy for other's progress, pride because we think ourselves superior to
others.


The important thing in practical life, whether we are ugly, envious, selfish,
covetous, etc., is not to boast of being saints, but to start from absolute zero, and
understand ourselves profoundly, the way we are and not the way we want to
become or the way we would like to be.

It is impossible to dissolve the Ego, the Myself, if we do not learn to observe
ourselves, to perceive in order to understand what we really are here and now in an
efficient and absolutely practical way.

If we really want to understand we would listen to our teachers, and true spiritual
guides.

Young people of this generation have lost the sense of respect, of veneration
towards their parents, teachers, and true spiritual guides.

It is impossible to understand teachings when we do not know how to venerate and
respect our parents, teachers, or spiritual guides.

The simple mechanical remembering of what we have learnt by heart without indepth understanding
mutilates the mind and heart, brings about envy, fear, pride, etc.

When we truly know how to listen in a profound and conscious way, within us
emerges a wonderful power, an extraordinary, natural and simple understanding,
free from all mechanical processes, all reasoning and remembrances.

If the brain of a student is relieved from the enormous effort of memory it has to
exert, it would be totally possible to teach the structure of the nucleus and the
periodic table of elements to secondary students and enable high school students to
understand relativity and quantum physics.

As we have talked to some teachers of secondary schools, we understand that they
stick with true fanaticism to the old, antiquated and extemporaneous pedagogy.

They want students to learn everything by heart even though they do not
understand it.

Sometimes they accept that it is better to understand than to memorize but they
insist the formulae in physics, chemistry, mathematics, etc., should be recorded in
the memory.

It is clear such a concept is false because when a formula of physics, chemistry,
mathematics, etc., is totally understood, not only at the intellectual level but also in
other levels of the mind, unconscious, subconscious, infraconscious etc., it is not
necessary to record it in the memory; as it forms part of our psyche and it can
manifest itself as immediate instinctive knowledge when the circumstances of life
demand it.

This integral knowledge comes to give us a type of omniscience, a way of conscious,
objective manifestation.

In-depth understanding at all the levels of the mind is only possible through
profound inner meditation.

INTEGRATION

One of the greatest longings in psychology is the attainment of total integration.

If the EGO was one, the problem of psychological integration would be resolved
with the greatest of ease, but unfortunately for the world, the EGO exists within
each person in a pluralized form.

The pluralized EGO is the fundamental cause of all our intimate contradictions.

If we could see ourselves in a full length mirror the way we are psychologically with
all our intimate contradictions, we would arrive at the painful conclusion that we
still do not have true individuality.

The human organism is a wonderful machine controlled by the pluralized EGO
which is studied in depth by revolutionary psychology.

I am going to read the newspaper, says an intellectual EGO; I want to go to a party,
exclaims an emotional EGO; to hell with the party, grumbles an EGO of movement,
it is better if I go for a walk; I don't want to go for a walk, shouts an EGO of
conservation instinct, I am hungry and I am going to eat.

Each of our small selves which constitute the EGO, wants to rule, wants to be the
master.

In the light of revolutionary psychology we can understand that the EGO is a legion
and the human organism is a machine.

The many Egos quarrel among themselves, they fight for supremacy, each one
wanting to be the boss, the master.

This explains the unfortunate state of psychological disintegration in which the
poor intellectual animal mistakenly called man lives.

It is necessary to understand what the word disintegration means in psychology.

Disintegration is to ruin oneself, to disperse oneself, rend oneself useless,
contradict oneself, etc.

The principal cause of psychological disintegration is envy which sometimes
manifests itself in exquisitely subtle and delicious ways.


Envy is multifaceted and there are thousands of reasons to justify it. Envy is the
secret spring of the whole social machinery. Dolts delight in justifying envy.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:03am On Jan 25, 2020
A rich man envies the rich and wants to be richer. Poor people envy the rich and
want to be rich too. He who writes envies people who write and wants to write
better. He who has much experience envies the one who has more experience and
desires to have more than him.

People are not satisfied with bread, clothing and shelter. The secret spring of envy
for someone else's car, house, suit, money, etc., produces desires of bettering
oneself, acquiring more and more things, dresses, suits, virtues, so as not to be less
than others, etc.

The most tragic thing of all this is that the cumulative process of experiences,
virtues, things, money, etc., strengthens the pluralized Ego, intensifying them the
intimate contradictions, the horrifying wounds and cruel battles within us.

All that is pain and cannot bring true joy to the grieving heart, all it produces is and
increase of cruelty in our psyche, a multiplication of pain, discontent, each time
more profound.

The pluralized EGO always finds justifications even for the worst of crimes and to
that process of envying, acquiring, accumulating, obtaining, even when it is at the
expense of others work, is called evolution, progress, advancement, etc.

People have their Conscience asleep and do not realize that they are envious, cruel,
covetous and jealous and when for some reason they do realize all this, they justify
themselves, they condemn and search for evasions but do not understand.

Envy is difficult to discover due to the concrete fact that the human mind is
envious. The structure of the mind is based on envy and acquisition.


Envy begins at school desks. We envy the best intelligence of our classmates, the
best grades, the best suits, the best dresses, best shoes, best bicycle, etc.


The teachers who are called to mould the personality of pupils should understand
what the infinite processes of envy are and establish within the psyche of their
students an adequate foundation for understanding.

The mind, envious by nature, only thinks in the function of more. I can explain
better, I have more knowledge, I am more intelligent, I have more virtues, more
sanctification, more perfections, more evolution, etc.

All the functionalism of the mind are based on "more". The more is the intimate
secret spring of envy.

More is the comparative process of the mind. All comparative processes are
abominable. For example: I am more intelligent than you, so and so is more
virtuous than you, so and so is better that you, wiser, kinder, more beautiful, etc.

Tbc...
Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 8:46am On Jan 27, 2020
The more creates time. The PLURALIZED EGO, needs time to be better than the
neighbor, to demonstrate to the family that he is very genial and can be someone
in life, to show his enemies or those whom he envies that he is more intelligent,
more powerful, stronger, etc.

Comparative thinking is based on envy and produces that which is called
discontent, uneasiness, bitterness.


Unfortunately, people go from one opposite to another opposite, from one extreme
to another. They do not know how to walk along the centre. Many struggle against
discontent, envy, covetousness, jealousy, but the struggle against discontent never
brings true joy to the heart.

It is urgent to understand that the true joy of the tranquil heart is not bought or
sold and that it is only born in us with absolute naturalness and in a spontaneous
way when we have understood in depth the very causes of discontent, jealousy,
envy, covetousness, etc.

Those who want to obtain money, a magnificent social position, virtues,
satisfactions of all types, etc., with the purpose of obtaining true contentment are
totally mistaken because all of that is based on envy and the path of envy can never
lead us to the harbour of a tranquil and contented heart.


The mind imprisoned in the PLURALIZED EGO makes a virtue of envy and even
gives itself the luxury of putting delicious name on it, such as, progress, evolution,
the longing for improvement, the struggle for dignity, etc.

All of this produces disintegration, intimate contradictions, secret struggles,
problems with difficult solutions, etc.

It is difficult to find in life someone who is truly integral in the most complete sense
of the word.

It is totally impossible to obtain total integration while the PLURALIZED EGO
exists within us.

It is urgent to understand that within each person exists three basic: factors First,
Personality; Second, The Pluralized Ego; Third, The psychic material, that is, the
very ESSENCE of the person.

The PLURALIZED EGO clumsily wastes the psychological material in atomic
explosions of envy, jealousy, greed, etc. It is necessary to dissolve the pluralized ego
with the purpose of accumulating within the psychic material for establishing a
permanent centre of Conscience in our interior.

Whoever does not possess a permanent centre of Conscience cannot be integral.

Whoever does not possess a permanent center of Conscience cannot be integral.
Only a permanent center of Conscience gives us true individuality.
Only a permanent Center of Conscience makes us integral.

SIMPLICITY

It is urgent and indispensable to develop creative understanding, because it brings
true freedom of living to human beings. Without understanding it is impossible to
obtain a real critical faculty of profound analysis.

Teachers of schools, colleges and universities should lead their students along the
path of self-critical understanding.

In our last chapter we already broadly studied the processes of envy, whether they
are religious, passionate, etc. We should have full consciousness of what envy really
is because it is only by understanding in depth and in an intimate way the infinite
processes of envy that we manage to do away with jealousies of all types.

Jealousy destroys marriages, friendships and provokes religious wars, fratricidal
hatreds, murders, and sufferings of all types.


Envy with all of its infinite shades hides behind sublime purposes. There exists
envy in he who having been informed about the existence of sublime saints,
Mahatmas or Gurus, desires to also become a saint. There exists envy in the
philanthropist that exerts himself to surpass other philanthropists. There exists
envy in every individual that covets virtues because it was reported to him, because
in his mind there is data on the existence of sacred individuals filled with virtues.

The desire of being a saint, of being virtuous, has envy as its basis.

The saints with their virtues have caused much harm.

That brings to mind the case of a man who considered himself very holy. On a
certain occasion, a starving and wretched poet knocked at his door to place in his
hand a lovely verse especially dedicated to the saint of our story. The poet only
awaited a coin with which to buy food for his exhausted and aged body.

The poet imagined everything except an insult. Great was his surprise when the
saint with a pitiful look and wrinkled brow closed the door telling the unfortunate
poet: "Get out of here my friend, out, out... I do not like this things, I detest
flattery... I do not like the vanities of this world; this life is an illusion... I follow the
path of humility and modesty".

The unfortunate poet who only desired a coin, instead received an insult from the saint,
a word that hurt, a slap and with his heart in pain and the lyric in pieces he went through
the streets of the city slowly... Slowly... Slowly...

The new generation should rise on the basis of real understanding because this is
totally creative.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:16am On Jan 29, 2020
Memory and remembrance are not creative. Memory is the grave of the past.

Memory and remembrance are death.

True understanding is the psychological factor of total liberation.

The remembrances of the memory can never bring us true liberation because they
belong to the past and therefore, they are dead.

Understanding is not a thing of the past nor of the future. Understanding belongs
to the moment in which we are living here and now. Memory always brings an idea
of the future.

It is urgent to study science, philosophy, art and religion but studies should not be
trusted to the fidelity of memory because memory is not faithful.

It is absurd to store knowledge in the grave of memory. It is silly to bury in the
grave of the past the skills that we should understand.

We can never pronounce ourselves against studying, wisdom or science, however, it
is absurd to store the living jewels of knowledge in the rotted grave of memory.

It is necessary to study, investigate and analyze, but we should meditate profoundly
in order to understand at all the levels of the mind.


A truly simple man is profoundly understandable and he has a simple mind.

The important thing in life is not what we have accumulated in the grave of our
memory, but what we have understood not only on the intellectual level but also in
the different unconscious, subconscious areas of the mind.

Science and knowledge should be converted into immediate understanding. When
knowledge and studies, have been transformed into real creative understanding,
then we can understand all things immediately because understanding becomes
immediate, instantaneous.

Complications do not exist in the mind of a simple man because all complications
of the mind are due to the memory. The cunning ego that we carry within is
accumulated memory. The experiences of life should be transformed into true
understanding.

When experiences are not transformed into understanding, when experiences
continue in the memory, they constitute the putrefaction of the grave over which
burns the luciferic and fatuous flame of the animal intellect.

It is necessary to know that the animal intellect totally deprived of all spirituality is
merely the verbalization of memory, a sepulchral light burning over a funeral slab.

Re: The Most Fundamental Of All Educations(101) by BdorianGray(m): 9:25am On Jan 31, 2020
A simple man has his mind free of experiences because these have become
Conscience; they have been transformed into creative understanding.

Death and life are found intimately associated. Only by the seed dying will the plant
sprout, only by experiencing death will understanding be born. This is a process of
real transformation.

A complicated man has his memory full of experiences. This shows a lack of
creative understanding because when experiences are entirely understood in all
levels of the mind, they cease to exist as experiences and are born as
understanding.

It is necessary to experience first of all, but we should not remain in the field of
experiences because then the mind complicates itself and becomes difficult. It is
necessary to live life intensely and to transform all experiences into real creative
understanding.

Those who mistakenly assume that to be understanding, simple and plain means to
abandon the world, become beggars, live in isolated huts and use loincloths
instead of elegant suits are totally mistaken.

Many hermits, many beggars have very complicated difficult minds.

It is useless to withdraw from the world and live as hermits if the memory is full of
experiences that condition the free flow of thoughts.

It is useless to live as hermits, wanting to lead the life of saints, if memory is stuffed
with information that has not been duly understood or made conscious in the
distinct nooks, corridors and unconscious regions of the mind.

Whoever transforms intellectual information into true creative understanding and
whoever transforms the experiences of life into true in-depth understanding, has
nothing in the memory, he lives from moment to moment filled with true fullness.
He has become simple and plain even though he might live in luxurious residences
inside the perimeter of urban life.

[Children under six years of age are full of simplicity and true interior beauty due
only to the living Essence of life expressing itself through them in total absence of
the psychological ego.


We should reconquer our lost infancy in our heart and in our mind. We should
reconquer innocence if we really want to be happy.

Experiences and studying transformed into in-depth understanding do not leave a
residue in the grave of memory, but allows us to become plain, simple, innocent,
happy.
