Who told you about the ark? :o

It's supposed to be an "escape from insanity".  A floating independent city state in international waters, dedicated to the mind/body/spirit development of each resident.

Yeah, it's a long term goal of mine. ;)

Hi Jed.

I guess if this thing is going to involve me, the Universe will decide my role in it or not.
T/A, H/A, wow, is there a demarcation there somewhere?
Sorry, I'm definitely perplexed and not just a little bit confused by this thing.
Words in print just don't cut it, as per usual so maybe that's it.

LOve ya back atcha,

Jdas

@know1 - thanks :) i understood what you meant, it was just hard for me to imagine it  ;)

@rgardner - well, yea, I can agree, but how the heck do you do it? How do you "detach" from your ego? How did you do it?

Detachment from ego is not required, clear seeing of it will discreate it all in due time.

Love ya, Jed.

Penks,

(US Navy 1970 Waikiki) I went into a trance focusing on "Who and what am I?"

I fell into the fullness, the bliss, what I call the "oneness".  You could also call it Omega, I guess, since it is the end.

When I regained alert consciousness, I was pretty much devoid of ego. 

Overwhelming gratitude was all I remember, initially.  Felt like an animal.  Began assessing what I needed to survive.  Wasn't long before I became frightened of society. Reported my fears to sick bay.  Got a psych evaluation.  Asked if they could put me under observation.  Said yes, and they proceeded to chemically lobotomize me.

It was months before I was aware of my ego and realized I could manipulate the ego. I put together a very minimal belief set and was able to integrate into society, get an education, and do the American Dream thing.  I always just thought I was a very unusual individual, and that the rest of the world was insane.

It was nearly 45 years before I was lead to understand what happened.  I owe that to Jed's books.  It all clicked in.

So that's how I am detached, but I can also engage the ego and enjoy the mind/body emotions.

@rgardner thank you :)


edit p.s. :  If you didn't know what it was when you got it, how did you come up with the inquiry? Were you looking for it, or did it just hit you out of the blue?
