Being in the "Know" - A Beginning...

This is a repost of a Topic from the Old Site. It was started there and due to the move to this New Site - That conversation is reposted and continued here for posterity...

MayaMachine's Question from the Old Site.

All of this life, since as far back as i can remember, i have been experiencing these dreams that actually end up occuring in this life as actual events. most of the events are of simple nature, with hardely any major significance or of change. i get them often, 1 to 2 times a week. the problem is, that when i have the dream, it only happens if i dont remember the dream upon awakening from sleep. but if i do remember the dream after sleep, it doesnt manifest itself. when i happen to come upon a deja vu in my life, i remember it in the dream because of the extremely powerful and strong emotions of rememberance that are accompanied with it. now, has anyone experienced anything like this? and if so... what are your/their interpretations and knowledge of it all? i need to find a meaning to all of this...
peace, love and light everyone.

Mercuriel's Answer from the Old Site.

Past, Present and Future are all occurring simultaneously so with that stated the following can be stated.

Your Higher self is You already Advanced and Ascended - In the Future. We get Deja-vus as an inkling of the Visions/Understandings Our Higher Self has shown Us. These are the Mindal remnants of the times in which We've communed together to achieve a desired result. This "Deja-vu" is the remembrance of It as We move through the experience from the past, into the future...

When We remember it - Sometimes, It does not transpire. This is due to the fact that We're now in the time stream that was, unrevealed to Us until then.

The non-realization of this Vision/Understanding is due to the following. Once something is Known or Intimated - We have a tendency to often step out of the Mold or Path as We move towards It in time and space - Thereby causing It's manifestation to NOT occur as this movement usually takes Us away from the "Known" or "Intimated" realization.

That said though, some manage to stay in the "Known" or "Intimated" time stream by not deviating from It. This is where realization of those Visions/Understandings can thereby be achieved...

Makes a lot of sense. now, how can i prevent stepping out of my given path? what are some techniques.

Mercuriel's Reply from the Old Site.

I have been in deep thought as to how to advise You best. I have many methods I use, but to display these to You properly is the key. This is what I have been doing in contemplative thought...

That said, I'll post later today in relation to Your question as My thoughts are finally coalescing. Once I've condensed what I have to display, so It isn't 40 Pages long, I will then post it as an answer to You and others in this thread...

My apologies for the time lapse in answering but sometimes one must look deep inside themselves to find the mechanisms and thoughtforms necessary to help display Universal Truths or rather the pursuit of Universal Truths to others.

Now, while It will not be My intention to display Universal Truths in this particular answer, it will be My intention to display METHODS that one can use to discern these Universal Truths on their own.

Mercuriel's Answer...

Lets call this Dissertation - Being in the "Know"...

Well let Me say that If I am to pay any homage to such a good question about such a large Issue - I must say that We need to explore the personal and interior necessities one must have before practising any of the prescribed techniques and methods of approaching things. These Mindsets must be nutured and grown so as to come to discernment about the Path We must all walk to Enlightenment.

Mindsets

Intuition:

This is better known on a baser level as a "gut feeling". This is the perception that One is not being either told or shown the Truth, or that the Truth is being warped to serve an Agenda that is not One's own. It is also there as a survival tool in the form of Instinct. Intellectually, it is again there in the form of the Conscience. All of these Intuitions can be, and are augmented by Knowledge and Wisdom but this not necessary for them to operate independantly or involuntarily...

Note, all things are mutli-faceted and have mutliple levels and meanings or refinements of Polarity. While Intuition can be, and is, more than described above - It is the above as stated - At least...

Let Us now, as an attempt to use Our most currently refined or highest Ideal of Intuition as detailed above - To carry on. That being the Intuitive quality of "Conscience".

Conscience is truly serving others when It is not confused by the "Law of Man" but rather, serves the "Law of the Highest and Best Good of All Concerned".

Once at this level - That being the "Law of the Highest and Best Good of All Concerned" - Conscience borders on or begins to translate to Consciousness of Unity in All that exists. As this is a state of perception, its when it is consciously practised as above, that it leads to increasing Intuitional Awareness as its exercised in one's actions and thoughts, minute-by-minute, day-by-day...

This Intuition can also be thought of in higher realms or realities as the "Thought-Adjuster" which is supposed to be a fail-safe connection to;

The "First Source and Center of All Things"...
The "Prime Creator" and the "Universal Father/Mother"...
"God"...

As Humans though, We really like to call it Conscience and so We'll just leave it at that for now.

As Humans, We invoke this when We violate another's "Free-will" choice by Our desire to self-realize overtop of their "Free-will" choices, Our self-realized desires. Have You ever thrown out something into Nature and just knew It was wrong ? This is that "Thought-Adjuster / Mystery Monitor" saying to You - "You are not observing the "Free-will" choice of others to have a shared reality free of unnecessary litter, and garbage."

While its a lesser realization of this particular Mindset, it is effective in analogizing the quality in action. All You need do to realize this more and more is to do exactly as above. Look more and more away from self-realization (Service to Self) and more and more towards the "Highest and Best Good of All Concerned" (Service to Others). This quality will only grow and develope as You exercise It more and more...

Following the thinking, as Your higher Self is ahead of You in the future now working with You in the present now...It is obvious that as a Higher or more refined aspect of You, It would be working with You towards a desired result for the "Highest and Best Good of All Concerned".

Knowledge:

Once You've established (With the aid of Your Intuitive "Thought-Adjuster") that what You've been told, been taught, and or been shown by others, is not for the "Highest and Best Good of All Concerned" and is obviously someone else's Agenda - You must then seek with a critical eye and informed Mind that which is puzzling You as to It's answer or solution. This involves gathering input from as many sources as are available, while always putting them under the microscope of investigation.

Investigation is when You VET all of the Information You've gathered to see if it resonates or if it rings true. This can only be accomplished if one is making sure that the Knowledge or Information that they've gathered is accurate. This is at least inasmuch as an outsider is able to with limited abilities and resources. Its done by ensuring that these SOURCES or Information are backed up by actual credentials and experience, and can be evidenced by the Information being published alongside credentials such as P.H.D.s, Government Whistleblowers, Eyewitnesses, etc.

Faith or Belief:

Faith and or Belief can be desribed as many things but It is this one aspect at least. Being in the "KNOW".

Once You've vetted and found Your Information to be correct, thereby bringing You into discernment about it - Its at this point that You now know whats going on and that its unlikely You can be told different after that. This is similar to when You know its Daytime and someone is trying to tell You its Night...You simply know its Daytime no matter what anyone trys to tell You at that point.

As a Wise and Old Friend of Mine likes to say "One's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions."

Wisdom:

This is the culmination of all of the above. It is a composite Undertanding or Discernment of all that has been gleaned to that point, and is even a composite of that which will come into Understanding or Discernment in the future. One Who has Wisdom knows there is always more Wisdom to be gathered the more One seeks Discernment. Since one knows that there will always be more Discernment - There will be more Wisdom to be gathered from All that is...Simply stated, You must seek It though...

Its the application of all thats been Discerned up to that point put into action in whatever ways are necessary for that specific moment. Intuition will cause One to seek Knowledge, That Knowledge will be put action creating Wisdom, and this will continue ad infinitum on into Eternity.

"If Man hath not the Wisdom, let Him but ask and it shall be delivered unto Him."

Love:

You must love Thyself, love thy Neighbor, and love those that have wronged You as well as those You've wronged. There are many obvious reasons why You should do this but We're talking about the Metaphysical aspects of It so let Me display this side then.

Loving Thyself is necessary to be able to forgive those that have wronged You and vice-versa.

God loves Us all unconditionally. Karma is an aspect of Self. It is the weight that We put on Our self in this Life by Our actions either against others or in service to them. If We are then to love Ourselves as God does - We must forgive all that We have done which We feel wronged others. Not that We did not wrong them but that We need to let it go and not carry it around as baggage anymore. This is only by amending Your behaviour accordingly as You'll only incur more Karma if You recommit. If You are sympathetic to wrongs You have committed make Your penance to those You've wronged. Its likely they won't even remember they were wronged but You can get the Karmic release if Its needed nonetheless. Don't forget - Its about US letting It go - Not THEM. They must let It go just as much as You, but that is for them to do in their own way regardless of Your Path.

Others have used this axiom very successfully and so I will use it here. To be Enlightened - One must Lighten up...This is so true...

This does not mean the You should be Jovial or be Flippant about things. Issues We stir up for Ourselves (Karma) are exactly like baggage or weight upon one's Soul. You must be "of lighter" stuff than You PLUS all Your baggage. If We translated every cycle minus Our baggage - There might not be anyone here reincarnating at all. They'd all be new Souls (Not newly created but moreso Souls new to the experience of Incarnation on Earth/Urantia). This however is not the case and while not all Incarnation is new Soul or "other", the baggage concept is definately useful. Issues are weight and one must deal with them to have closure thats right for that Person. Otherwise, You carry it with you and Ascendency is difficult then without a further need to reincarnate or repeat a life so as to learn Knowledge into Wisdom again.

Without going into it further - Now We can see why Issues of right and wrong need to be dealt with before moving on to higher realities. Not themselves as Virtues but rather Our Issues with them as those Virtues and Our notions of them...

Beyond the 3rd - One must be absolutely in control of the Self without any need of control. Ego must have been absorbed, the "Shadow" dealt with and Spirit must be driving by that point. Progression is not allowed unless these qualities of adjustment transfer with You.

Now once We've dealt with Our Mindset, We can then begin to act on the following...

1. Change Your Diet. Get rid of the junk and You know what it is without asking about it too.
2. Deal with Your Ego. Let Spirit drive now and tell Ego to ride shotgun. Close up Your Issues...
3. Open Your Chakras (Google, Google).
4. Meditate upon things (Invoke the Laws) - Visualizing that which You wish to see come to pass for the Highest and Best Good of all concerned. Hold that focus for a small time each day and be prepared for it's manifestation. When It happens, make sure to thank the creation for it's abundance in providing it to You. Get that Third eye working...
5. Serve others before Self.
6. Thank the Creation for each new day of experience.
7. Continue to seek Discernment and never rest in that regard. There is always a greater Truth and when You look for the absolute Truth - You eventually find the absolute Truth looking back at You showing You yet more levels of Discernment...
8. Get off the Flouride. Again Google is Your Friend...
9. Get out into Nature and thank Mother Gaia for being there for Us. Send Her Your love whenever You think of Her and one should think of Her often...

Now this is not to be construed as My whole understanding.. It is merely an example of where to start if You are serious about making a stab at this whole Ascension scheme. At least this cycle. I stand ready to answer any and all questions leveled at Me after posting this small Dissertation on how to begin Your process of being in the "Know".

Peace, Light, Love and Harmony.

Namaste,
