Smile God in Motion

Yes there is no doubt that every person is a clear reflection of God in motion, within us we know everything there is to know, I have found that its in the letting go all the old beliefs and dogma that hold me in bondage to this old way of living, governed by fear and separation and the ego, the more I let the old ways go the more I seem to awaken to a whole new way of living, whereby I am able to create a deliberate life.

Re: God in Motion

I don't know how general this theory can get but perhaps people believe in God in correlation to their emotional intelligence. That is, since logic is not an asset here I'd say if emotion is not controlled or overpowered by a certain amount then they will believe in God. If logic assumes control then God does not exist.

We could represent emotional intelligence in appliance to virtue by means of a bell curve, I think, seems appropriate. And God's association is pressed through spiritual and emotional cognition thus the intellectual application comes by means of displaying it as an intelligence, represented by a bell curve.

So God is instinctual, but based on critical emotional states.

Re: God in Motion

By the power of imagination all men, certainly imaginative men, are forever casting forth enchantments, and all men, especially unimaginative men, are continually passing under their power. Neville Goddard

I suspect that God in Motion, IS our wonderful imagination. We are after all the dreamers of the dreams.
Neville said this:
Everything, that can be seen, touched, explained, argued over, is to the imaginative man nothing more than a means for he functions, by reason of his controlled imagination, in the deep of himself where every idea exists in itself and not in relation to something else. In him there is no need for the
restraints of reason,
for the only restraint he can obey is
the mysterious instinct that teaches him
to eliminate all moods
other than the mood of fulfilled desire.

Imagination and faith are the only faculties of mind needed to create objective conditions.

Objective conditions such as radiant health, financial means, good friends, and a host of other things.

So how does one learn how to live like this? Richard I think you are showing those who know you just how. It is not so much what you do, but what you cease to do. As you have said, 'Give it no thought'.

It is the brought about by the cessation of active opposition on the part of the objective mind of the operator. It depends upon your ability to feel and accept as true what your objective senses deny.

When we accept as true what our objective senses deny, then we run head on into those of the scientific, prove it right here and now type of thinkers.What they don't understand is that it is a higher science, one that comes up over the laws of physics. After all, how could they explain how it is that one could walk on water or through fire. Probably it is going to be our quantum physicist who are going to understand this and prove it because they are looking at matter differently these days.

Re: God in Motion

I'm sorry but that video was full of nonsense.

"Don't worry about anything and just let go" might be one thing but what happens when you get appendicitus? Should you just not worry about it and just let go and die overwhelming stomach pain?

And "a machine that produces power without fuel but brings the energy right from god"
I'm sorry, anyone that says something so rediculous must be insane. I guess you can say that all energy is from God in one way or another.

There's a joke that goes as follows:

There is a terrible flood and a man is praying in his house to be saved. He hears a boat out the window. He looks out and the people in the boat say "common, hop in!"
The Man replies "I'm a man of faith, and I'm praying for God to save me"
So the boat drives away.
The water gets so high that it forces the Man on the roof and he continues praying.
Then a Helicopter flies overhead and lowers a rope.
The man says "I'm a man of faith, and I'm praying for God to save me"
The Helicopter flies away. Then the man is about to drown and a dolphin comes to save him and bring him to land but the man says again, "I'm a man of faith, and I'm praying for God to save me".

The man eventually drowns and in heaven he says "God, why didn't you save me? I prayed so much and I had so much faith"
God answered, "I tried, I sent you a boat, I sent you a helicopter, and I even sent you a dolphin."

Energy that comes directly from God is like the man in the Joke. Accept the help that comes. Work for the future but don't give up the past on a whim until a method is proven better. "Better a bird in your hand than two in the tree"

Re: God in Motion

Bin, it's important to understand that everyone is at a different level of consciousness. What may seem to be nonsense or insane to you but it is someone else's reality. It's clear that you cannot comprehend what this gentleman is talking about. It's not anything bad on your part, it's just that you are on a different level of consciousness, sort of like the string theory.

We actually all vibrate at different levels and people of like vibration attract others of similar vibration.

You joke is one that has been told by Religious people for a long time and really had nothing to do with this post.

Now if you would, please explain what a bird in the had actually gets you. Are talking from a 'Living for the physical world' or are we talking about 'living in a spiritual world'? Physically, you can have all that this world has to offer and it is ultimately nothing.

There are men of the flesh and then there are men of the spirit...

It was A ok to me! Except now I have a lot of questions. I think he meant the subjective experiences via the perception of one's reality and comparing to others, not the objective experiences from biological influences. If we are all the same in some way then there is nothing to fear even if we cannot grasp the full understanding of other perceptions even though they are inherently the same.?

Obviously Richard, you're view on God has got to be different from my atheistic view. But I am stubborn to see what you mean. Can you write an elaboration on how this works exactly?.

Re: God in Motion

Richard,

What you have experienced is peace of mind. Sorta like following your nose, when your mind pretty much has a life of it own and effortlessly directs you through life. That is God in Motion. The really remarkable expectation is imagining what it will be like when all begin to "link up". Each and every individual is totally different and much of the "data" the mind has access to that will not be compatible with the path you are "meant" to take will never "hinder" you. It is when we consciously try to retrieve data is when we get into trouble. The mind and God are one and when that link is made, it is indeed a remarkable experience, is it not? It really is hard for those who have never experienced it to understand exactly what it really means. Thanks for sharing your story with us.

Kindest regards,
William

Re: God in Motion

Words of wisdom William.

Richard is closer to knowing God and the creator of this universe than any Christian I was raised with or know. Although I disagree or don't understand some of what he's saying... it all makes sense to me. But like Holiday has expressed, it leaves a lot of questions.

I think that the further we travel down that rabbit hole and seek the answers within and not without, we'll understand much more when we are ready to understand it. We all vibrate at different levels of reality and each reality is unique unto it's own.

I was able to spend 2+ months with this man as a guest in our home. Although there were many times we pushed each others' buttons, I can say that the message he brought forth was one that I've attracted and he's here and we are all here because our thoughts have attracted this very instance for our own level of unfolding. To understand what this all means is a never-ending journey of the eternity in the here and now.

Richard is merely a reflection of God in motion that we've attracted into our lives and into this forum and likewise we've attracted each other. Richard has discovered the kingdom that we all speak so highly of but seek answers in the flesh and the egos of this earth.

There comes a time where the blindfolds are removed and one can see... see himself in others, see Christ in others, see you and me in others... a mere kaleidoscope of One thing... of One God... of One creation... of One Energy... of One mind... of One Spirit... whatever it is man wish to call his God.

Knowing God

Quote:
Everyone is unaware of their ignorance. We only know God based on our own particular level and can know what we don't know on the next level. But we don't even know what we don't know on all of the higher levels. We are all ignorant of our ignorance. -- Rabbi Nachman of Breslow

Re: God in Motion

About letting go,
The only thing I can think of that is true about the happiness found in letting go is as follows

Quote:
Who is wealthy? The one who is happy with his portion. [Ethics of the Fathers]
One who is satisfied with what they have is wealthy because they have no lack. Only one who is without a lack can be truely happy.

About all worldly pleasures King Solomon says "They are thirsty, yet they drink from the sea"

All of our worldly pleasures are like drinking salty water, they only leave us more thirsty. The more we drink the more we thirst. We will never fill our lack this way, only create more of one.

And he also says "The one who loves money will never be satisfied with silver."
Meaning no matter how much money he has, he will always want more, and never be satisfied.

Happiness only comes through letting go and being happy with what we have now. And in this Richardgrant's Youtube video is correct about letting go.

But a machine that can derive energy from God is still rediculous.
