Comportament Mecanic

Unde vom vorbi despre:
-Sugestie,
-Un cuvint nou - (Nu Eu)
-Drepturi,
-Emotii,
-Lacomie,
-Vanitate,
-Mindrie
Acesta este inceputul unei noi scoli. Am avut multe dorinte sa avem o scoala, una unde oamenii vin impreuna la un loc anumit, traind si muncind impreuna pentru multe luni si fiind introdusi constant la anumite idei idei care sint un studiu al omului
Observ ca oamenii din diferite locuri de asemenea doresc sa fie in aceste scoli si acest lucru este foarte inconvenient, si foarte scump; si citeodata aproape imposibil pentru oameni sa plece de la casele lor, locul lor de munca, businessul lor, pentru multe luni ca sa fie prezenti in una din aceste scoli. Dupa mult effort si studio considerabil si experimentatie, am decis sa punem scoala pe casete audio.
Acum nimeni nu va sta pe capul tau, deci va rog sa folositi casetele asa cum au fost create sa fie folosite, ca voi sa primiti beneficiul maxim si valoarea maxima din aceste casete. Fiecare caseta este numerate. Nu este un nume specific sau titlu pentru fiecare caseta, sint numai numerele 1,2,3, pina la 48. Acum, fiecare caseta este facuta sa fie folosite pentru o saptamana. Este sugestat ca la ascultati la caseta cel putin o data pe zi. Si ca sa considerati atenti materialul care este acoperit pe caseta; si ca sa observati in afacerile dvs. In existenta dvs, in zi de zi.
Acum, studiul omului care a fost luat pentru multe century este ca omul este imparti in aspecte diferite. Fisiologia omului este studiata, si numar considerabil de literatura este bazata pe fisiologia omului functia sa, functia interna a corpului uman. Acesta este foarte valoros dar este izolat ca si studiul corpului; si nu ia in consideratie CE SE INTIMPLA in structura omului, or in special statutul sau intern, psyhicul sau, SUFLETUL sau, SPIRITUL sau acestea sint cuvinte schimbate- interchangeable.
Acum, sint studii spirituale; dar sint deteriorate incet in a observa behaviorul omului, incercind sa-i faca pe oameni ca sa developeze o anumita comportare; ca sa fie intr-un anumit fel, si ca sa evite alte comportamente. In alte cuvinte, este o incercare ca sa fim BUNI ca omul sa fie dragut si considerabil. Dar, este mult mai mult intr-un om decit ceea ce este scos la lumina si studiat, deci, in ciuda incercarilor acestor comportamente, omul foarte rar are success, iar daca are, este in framintare constanta, deci Omul nu prea a avut success. El a fost conditionat doar ca sa fie BUN.
Desigur, structura Sa este Studiata, si multe lucrari grozave de anatomie sint performate, care au valoare foarte mare pt. operatii medicale, dar ne da putina, intelegere la ce se intimpla la structura de zii si zi in afacerile imbatrinirii, durerilor, tinjirilor, sau deformarile omului.
Acestea sint lucrurile necesare pentru o scoala, ca cineva are o invatatura, or un set de idei care pun lumina in starea interna a omului, la fiinta spirituala, ideile da o interpretare spirituala la toate afacerile interne si externe. Acum, desigur ca toate aceste idei nu vor fi date toate dintr-o data. Ele sint date una cite una, si Omul Observa, pt. El Singur, ca sa vada daca aceste idei sint adevarate. Nimic nu este acceptabil pentru ca tu auzi de pe o caseta, sau pentru ca tu auzi de la o persoana. Tu trebuie sa investighezi sis a observi, prin atentie atenta, si observare repetata. Ca sa observi ca ideile sint de fapt adevarate, sau daca nu sint, arunca-le, elimineaza-le, Dar nu le elimina din primul moment cind le auzi, continua un pic.

Deci, prima necessitate a unei scoli este un anumit set de idei, idei care nici un Om nu afirma ca le-a originat el. Aceste idei au fost cu noi pentru mult timp, si anumite personae cara aceste idei cu ei si le impart cu altii, dar ideile sint ce este valoros. Nu persoanele care cara aceste idei. In terminologia obisnuite spunem ca este continutul ce este valoros, nu vasul. Deci, chiar daca vasul tau este aceasta caseta, sau daca este o persoana, sau orice, sint ideile care au valoare, si Nu Persoana, sau cum le primesti, sau canalul prin care primesti aceste idei. Deci ideile vor pune lumina, o interpretatie spiritual ape toate nivelele de experiente ale unui Om, In toate relatiile de zi si zi ale existentei sale.
Al doile lucru este ca sint doi sau mai multi oameni intr-o relatie. Acum, aceasta poate sa fie Munca- poate sa fie Casa, sau Joaca, sau orice. Sint doi sau mai multe personae intr-o relatie. Acum, numai unul trebuie sa stie despre aceste idei, Acela Esti Tu. Te Rog, san u incerci sa fortezi ideile acestea pe nimeni altcineva. Ele sint ca sa fie folosite ca si o lumina interna, si sa nu fie invatate la alti oameni, fortati ca sa le invete, sau orice. Daca cineva te va intreba, si mult mai tirziu si cind vei vedea cu adevarat ca chiar vrea cu adevarat ca sa fie un elev al acestei scoli, si vrea neaparat sa studieze aceste idei sau daca sint Numai curiosi. Deci, in primul rind, sint doi sau mai multi oameni, unde vei munci, sau poate ca ai o familie mare, sau poate ca este un serviciu public, oriune esti. Vei avea multe relatii intre oameni. In orice relatie te gasesti, vei avea ceva de observat acolo, si ideile invataturii arunca lumina in relatiile tale, ca sa intelegi CE SE INTIMPLA AICI in internal omului, in starea sa interna, in Starea sa de a fi.
Deci, sint doi sau mai multi oameni intr-o relatie. Nu este nimeni asa de izolat ca san nu aiba o persoana cu care sa nu aiba o relatie anumita intre ei, chiar daca ar fi munca, joaca, casa, sau orice, In fiecare Zi. Aceasta lucrare nu este pentru singuratici, pustii. Numai unul din oameni trebuie sa cunoasca aceste idei, de fapt, citeodata, este mai bine ca numai Unul sa stie aceste idei. Acela esti Tu. Unul are aceste idei, si observa, pe toti ceilalti inconstienti la ceea ce tu faci, observindu-i si tu trebuie sa folosesti aceasta invatatura cel putin part time, sau cel putin o parte din timp. Invatatura care nu este folosita, este fara valoare.
Unele din ideile ale aceste Stiintei ale Omului, pentru studio si experimentare, la acest moment, va fi valoros numai ca ceva de studiat, sa devii constient, ca sint diferinte seturi de idei.
Iti vor fi date anumite teme de facut, si anumite feluri de observare alor aceste idei din timp in timp, deci sa nu fi in graba. Sa mergi incet, si atent, urmind in calea ta. Vei travela pe o strada noua, si pentru time, de multe ori este pietroasa la inceput, dar foarte in curind, va fi minutat.
Deci, ideile scolii sint ca Barbatul sau femeia in viata de zii si zi nu au studiat sau nu au fost expusi, sau au avut oportunitatea sa foloseasca anumite idei care, arunca lumina pe aspectul spiertual al Omului. Acesta include relatiile intre psychologia sa si Physiologia sa, structura sa si biologia sa. Persoana fara aceasta intelegere, sau fara sa fi avut oportunitatea aceasta este Mecanic.
Acum, orice mechanic nu are o proprie vointa a Sa, nu are o determinatie proprie a sa, este constant subiect si victima la tot ce I se intimpla zii de zi. Orice masina poate sa stea in strada, spalata, lustruita, cu motorul bun, si cu totul perfect, Dar nu are vointa sau determinatie unde va merge. Tu mergi afara, o pornesti, si functioneaza asa cum a fost creata sa functioneze.
Un Om, Tu, ca si o masina, poti fi intr o stare ca oricine poate venii sa ti apese un buton, sis a te faca sa fi nervos, sau sa te faca sa muncesti, sau sa te faca sa ai dreptate cu el, lucru care te va duce intr-o stare de sclavie intr-o zi, sau o stare de dependenta de ceva. Deci, daca masina doar sta acolo in strada, si ceva o loveste, este indoita, atunci putem spune ca te enervezi, si te ingrijorezi, sau te excite sau te sperii, sau vrei sa te razbuni sau te simti ca si un prost, sau cine stie cum te vei simti, poate jelos, ca s-a indoit, esti departe de a fi fericit cu tine insuti. Esti departe de a fi constient, iar tu nu ai ales acea stare in care te vei afla. Acea stare doar ti se va intimpla, si nu iti dai seama, Esti ca si un Robot, mechanic.
Deci, primul lucru care il observam aici este ca noi nu ne alegem starile noastre…
Deci, aici ar trebui sa iei o bucata de hirtie, si ceva de scris, si sa incepi sa scri jos toate lucrurile pe care le vezi in aceasta saptamana, zi de zi, in timp ce asculti la caseta, sis a observi ce se intimpla in relatiile intre oameni, de cite ori un om se comporta ca si un robot, adica mechanic.
Exercitiu
Ai spune ca toti avem butoane in noi, deci daca cineva vine si –mi apasa un buton si ma enervez, altcineva vine si-mi apasa alt buton si ma face fericita, altcineva vine si-mi apasa un buton si ma simt jignita, sau jeloasa, sau sint suparata in orice alt fel. Acum,,, eu nu am ales sa fiu in acest fel, cid oar mi se intimpla aceste lucruri. De sigur, nici unul din noi nu alegem sa fim suparati, am alege altceva, am alege sa fim la pace in sine, dar noi, atunci, observam ca nu sintem asa prea mult timp.
Acum, poate ca mergem zi de zi si toti ne apasa toate butoanele potrivite, sin e simtim minunat. Dar, in curind sau mai tirziu, in relatii, cineva uita, cineva misca ceva care ma face sa ma simt ca am plecat intr-un anumit loc, de exemplu cineva zice “De ce faci acest lucru?” cineva uita sa faca ce au zis ca vor face, deci hai sa observam reactia mecanica. Acestea sint doar niste incercari, exemple de felurile diferite in care butoanele sint apasate.
A doua idee despre ideile acestei scoli este ca in afara ca omul este mechanic, este ca omul este 100% subiect la orice sugestie, 100% din timp. Acum… pentru ca o sugestie sa mearga trebuie sa fie bazata pe ceva care este prima forma a omului, adica frama lui de referinta.
Foarte devreme, in existenta noastra, probabil la momentul nasterii noastre, am format o concluzie fundamentala ca singurul motiv al trairii noastre este ca sa recuperam starea in care sa nu avem nici o tulburare, si sa cistigam placere si sa scapam durerea. Acum, multi din noi nu am avut un gind in legatura cu acest lucru niciodata… Dar observind, in parallel cu observind ca facem totul mechanic, vom observa ca noi mereu ne uitam sa avem si mai mult comfort, si placere pe toate nivelele sin e luptam sa evitam durerea pe toate nivelele. Vom lua cele diferite nivele la suprafata din cind in cind.
Deci, tu ai spune ca acesta este un program pentru interiorul Omului. Deci, ca sa folosim limbajul din ziua de astazi, Un Om Este Programat, si ca orice care nu adduce placere sau comfort, un om reactioneaza apropriat, iar orice care adduce durere, un om reactioneaza apropriat. Deci, toate sugestiile care oamenii ni le spun, tin in ele ori placere sau comfort in viitor, or ca vom experienta durere sau tulburari in viitor, Daca nu facem asa sau asa.
Observind acest lucru, vom incepe sa observam sugestia, ca sintem 100% subiect la sugestie !00% din timp. In alte cuvinte, noi intotdeauna auzim. Acum, daca am avea un interior sau un suflet care nu este examinat, sin u sintem constienti de aceasta valoare de baza, aceasta programare de baza, ca singurul motiv de ce traim este sa avem placere, vom gasi ca noi nu sintem subiect numai la orice sugestie, dar ca sintem controlati de sugestii foarte des, daca nu 100% din tot timpul nostru. Aproape mereu.
Niste Exercitii despre Sugestii
Hai sa scriem jos, si sa vedem de cite ori cind citesti un articol dintr-un ziar care zice ceva teribil ca o catastrofa va venii in curind, si te simti suparat. Citesc epidemia gripei, sau orice alta forma de epidemie, ca vine din alta tara, poate de peste ocean, poate din Londra, sau Gripa in Spania, sau din Italia, nu avem Gripa din Russia ca aia este cea mai rea. Noi nu o avem pe aia aici. Dar hai sa vedem daca devenim ingrijorati. Hai sa vedem daca ne infricoseaza, si deci, experimentam un moment ca simtim urgentia intr-o forma sau alta. Atita timp cit acest lucru nu este examinat, va tot continua. Deci, Incepem sa examinam unde auzim sugestiile.
Acum, aduti aminte ca SUGETIA INTOTDEAUNA OFERA O RASPLATA pentru o anumita comportare sau un anumit gind, sau o anumita parere, si deci, daca nu reusim sa avem acel gind, or acea comportare anumita, sau o parere anumita, atunci, totul este amenintat cu pierderea. Toate aceste sugestii, poate ca esti constient de ele. Acum, poate ca citesti ca cancerul nu poate fi batut, sau ca bolile de inima a omorit pe atitia oameni, si incepem sa simtim pulsul nostru sau sa incepem sa ne examinam pielea, sau sa ne pipaim corpul sa vedem daca putem gasi vreo umflatura pe undeva; si daca gasim, gasim o anumita excitatie in noi, un sens de urgenta, si acesta, de sigur, are effectul sau in fisiology. Isi are efectul in anatomie; si de sigur, isi are efectul in biologia corpului. Deci, totul incepe-daca incepem sa observam cu adevarat- nu din ceva care aluneca in sus si ne ataca, dar din ceva care derevine din nautrul nostrum – din spiritul omului - din sufletul sau, din psyhicul sau. Acum, in general, astazi, noi folosim cuvintul Psyhologie. Cu citva timp in urma, a fost folosit cuvintul SUFLET in Engleza, trades, si aceasta este o traducere exacta din Grecia, CUVINTUL PSYCHE care de sigur, este unde cuvintul psychologie vine.
Am putea observa, ca orice sugestie care a fost acceptata fara sa fie criticata, ci doar acceptata pentru ca a sunat adevarata, ca fiecare din toate aceste sugestii devine o personalitate separate. Vom folosi terminologia “ Nu Eu” pentru aceasta personalitate falsa.
Sint sigur ca sinteti familiari cu povestea lui Pinochio. Un Om a sculptat o papusa din lemn si din cauza unui anumit motiv sau altul, papusa asta din lemn a capatat viata si a fugit singur, creind tot felul de buclug. Deci… Noi toti avem multi multi de Pinochii, sau, Nu Eu. I-am format prin a fiind de acord in sugestii, au stat acolo, au crescut, s-au multiplicat, si au devenit foarte puternici. Ei merg pe drumul lor inauntrul nostrum, si unul dupa altul devine capul si conduce afacerile din aceasta casa care se numeste Eu sau orice vrei sa o numesti, individualitatea ta. Noi toti credem ca fiecare din acesti Eu sint unul si acelasi. Scoala, adica aceasta invatatura spune ca sint personalitati separate.
Dupa cum continuam, vom afla ca sint in grupe diferite, si ca unii din ei vor coopera ci ca altii vor coopera in alt cantonament, sau alta tabara, si posibil ca fiecare din ei are un singur motiv in minte. Distruge- l pe fiinta asta care traieste.
Urmatoarea idee a acestei scoli este ca omul simte ca are drepturi, si ca trebuie sa se lupte pentru aceste drepturi, si ca da vina pe orice il opreste sa obtina aceste drepturi.
Acum, drepturile vin din idea de a avea ceva intr-un anumit numar de ori, si apoi ne simtim ca avem dreptul la acel lucru. Simtim ca tot pamintul si ca noi sintem centrul universului, si ca toti ar trebui sa-si faca timp ca sa aiba grija de drepturile mele. Eu le am. Ei ar trebui sa piara din fata mea. Ei ar trebui sa faca ce ar trebui sa faca cind trebuie sa faca.
De sigur daca vrem sa consideram aceste drepturi pentru un moment, am considera cum am venit pe acest pamint, Goli, saraci, neputinciosi, nici nu am inteles limba, nici nu am stiut de ce avem nevoie, si poate ca nici acum nu stim. Am gasit ca totul ne-a fost dat, si am reusit sa crestem pina in timpul prezent de afaceri. Nu am adus nimic ca sa asiguram acel lucru, si nici nu am stiut cum sa intrebam.
Deci, intreabate daca avem drepturi, sau poate fi ca am avut multe privilege pentru un anumit timp; si daca ceva ne-a fost dat, din nou si din nou, incepen sa acceptam acel fapt ca un drept, si ne simtim ca avem dreptul la acel lucru.
Exercitiu pentru drepturi.
Acum… Hai sa luam o alta bucata de hirtie, si sa scriem ca titlu: Drepturile Mele… Si cind te vei gasi pe tine ca vorbesti cu tine insuti, sau pe altul ca vorbeste cu altul, si isi apara un anumit drept al lui, sau ca are o pretentie spunind “Pai eu am dreptul la asta”, si “Eu am dreptul sa fac asta”, Ma intreb daca am putea scrie jos, iar apoi, pe cealalta parte a foii de hirtie scrie” “Am obtinut acest drept prin…….” Si pune jos ce ti-a dat tie dreptul ala, cum l-ai obtinut.
Acum… Orice ni se da este un privilegiu, acela, desigur ni se poate lua. In ceea ce priveste daca este drept sau nu. Dar in orice am format un titlu, prin munca, sau ca ai cistigat poate fi un drept. Deci, hai sa incepem sa vedem la ce avem noi drepturi de fapt. Orice ni se poate lua de la noi, nu este un drept necesar, Nu?
Acum, vei vedea un lucru in invatatura aceasta. Fiecare cuvind are sensul sau special. Acestea vor fi aduse la atentia voastra si vor fi folosite cit mai des. Acum, am introdus cuvintul “Nu Eu” ca orice este rezultat dintr-o sugestie. Ce a fost acceptat si facut, crezind ca este adevarat, si este acum o personalitate.
Am vazut drepturile ca si ceva care nu poate fi luat de la noi. Voi stiti ca pina si viata poate sa fie luata de la noi, de oricine care are vreun topor sau vreu pistol, sau cu unpic de otrava, sau cu orice alte lucruri. Deci poate ca viata este un privilegiu, si poate ca conducerea masinilor este un privilegiu. Poti pierde privilegiile acestea daca le confuzi ca sint drepturi. Poate daca am vedea ceva ca si un privilegiu am extinde mai mult effort, atentie si gind ca sa continuam acel privilegiu. Am face fiecare effort ca sa tinem acele privilegiuri pe care le avem acum si sa le podobim, si poate ca vom primi si mai mult. Deci ar fi foarte interesant daca am observa ce am considerat sa fie drepturile noastre, observam ca multe din ele sint privilegiuri, si ce am facut eu ca sa mentin si sa intretin aceste privilegiuri? Impodobeaza-le, ca sa mai primesti altele.
Alta idee este ca Omul are Emotii de suparare, vinovatie, frica, nesecuritate, inferioritate, si multe alte subdivisii, ca si jelozia, invidia, nemultumirea, toate, din care Omul nu a fost niciodata creat sa le aiba, si sint, deci, stress pentru Om. Cind are stress, sint multe adaptatii la stress, care-l duce la desintegrarea Sa. Dece aceste emotii de baza, Supararea, Vinovatia, Frica, Inferioritatea si Insecuritatea, si cu cele multe simptoame ale sale, nu sint potrivite Omului. Omul nu a fost creat sa le aibe. Ca desintegrarea este din cauza conditionarii ale Omului, a lui cocluzie de baza, ca motivul trairii sale este ca sa nu fie deranjat, catre cele multe sugestii ca si ce este de vinovat, cum ar trebuii sa fie Omul si ce sa faca. Aceste emotii de baza in aduc pe om intr-o stare de a fii, pe care noi o numim: Lacom, vanitate si Mindrie.

Lacomia: Ca definitie, vom spune ca Lacomia este dorinta de a avea mai mult, de a fi mai bine, si mai diferit. Orice are unul, dupa o anumita perioada, chiar daca unul este fericit cu tot ce are la inceput, unul se satura cu ce are, si incepe sa ia drept bun. Unul incepe sa accepte ca merita mai mult, si apoi vrea mai mult, mai bine, mai diferit. Aceasta este lacomia.

Vanitatea: Este toti acei pinochio personalitati: “Nu Eu” avind o poza falsa despre mine insumi, crezind ca eu sint dreapta mereu, si ca sunt o persoana foarte minunata care este mereu ranita de toti.

Si in final, Mindria apara aceasta poza falsa despre Mine- sau- sufletul meu_ Aveti grija facind munca acestei invataturi. Doar ca sa auziti cuvintele, chiar daca ascultati o ora, nu o sa va faca nici un bine. Deci, daca unul face munca, unul va gasi multe lucruri grozave.
The Teachings--Tape 1 Mechanical Behavior Suggestion Not "I's Rights Emotions Greed-Vanity-Pride This is the start of a new school. We have had many requests to have a school, one where people come to a given place, live & work together for many months, and constantly being exposed to certain ideas--ideas which are a study of Man. I'm finding that people from many different areas wish to attend these schools, and that it is very inconvenient, and very expensive; and sometimes almost impossible for people to disrupt their homes, their business, their job for many months to attend one of these schools. After much effort and considerable amount of study and experimentation, we've decided to put the school on recorded cassette tapes. Now no one will be standing over you, so will you please use the tapes as they are designed to do so that you may receive the maximum benefit and the maximum value from the tapes. Each tape is numbered. There is no specific name or title to each tape, there is only a number: 1, 2, 3 on up to 48. Now each tape is to be used for one week. It is suggested that you listen to the tape at least once each day; and that you very carefully consider the material that is covered on the tape; and that you attempt to observe it in your affairs--in your every day existence. Now the only thing that's different when a school is put on (and people come to one given place} is that they are constantly reminded of what they are doing--they're constantly pointed out certain ideas which may be used for observation. So these ideas will be pointed out to you day by day and week by week; and in 48 weeks if you use the tapes according to the instruction, you will find there's a complete transformation in your state of being. Now the usual study of man, which has been undertaken for centuries, is that man is divided into various aspects. His physiology is studied; and considerable literature is established on physiology--the function--the internal function of the human body. This is very valuable but it is isolated as the study of the body; and it does not take into consideration WHAT IS GOING ON in either his structure or most especially his inner state, his psyche, his soul, his spirit--these are interchangeable words. Now there are spiritual studies; but they have gradually deteriorated into observing the behavior and trying to get people to fit a certain behavior [act a certain way]--and avoid certain other behaviors. In other words, there's an attempt to be what is called "good"--that one would be kind and considerate. However, there is much in man that is not brought to light and not studied, so in spite of his attempts to do these behaviors, he seldom if ever succeeds; and if he does, he's in somewhat of a turmoil within; and he really hasn't succeeded--he's only been conditioned to be "good". Of course, his structure is studied; and great works of anatomy are preformed which are very valuable for surgery; but they give one little if any understanding as to what's happening to the structure in everyday affairs of aging, aches and pains, distortions etc. These are the things necessary for a school--that one has a teaching or a set of ideas that puts light on our inner states, our spiritual being, the ideas give a spiritual interpretation of all events both inner and outer. Now obviously, all these ideas will not be given at once. They're given one at a time; and one observes, for self, to see if these ideas are true. Nothing is to be accepted because you hear it on a tape or because you hear it in person. One is to investigate and observe, by careful observation repeatedly--to observe that the ideas are factual; or if they're not, discard them--but don't discard them at the first moment--continue on a little bit. So the first necessity of a school is a given set of ideas--which no man claims credit for having originated. They have been around a very long time; and various or sundry persons may carry these ideas and share them with others; but the ideas are what are worthwhile--not the person who carries those ideas. IN THE USUAL TERMINOLOGY WE SAY IT'S THE CONTENTS THAT ARE WORTHWHILE--NOT THE CONTAINER. So whether your container is a cassette tape or whether it is some person or whatever, it is the ideas that count--not the person--or the means by which you receive them--or the channel through which you received the ideas. So the ideas will put a light--a spiritual interpretation on all the events that one experiences in all the relationships of everyday existence. The second thing is that there is two or more people in a relationship. Now this may be work--it may be home--it may be play or whatever. There are two or more people in relationship. Now only one of these needs to know about the ideas--that is you! Please, do not try to force the ideas on anyone else! They are to be used as an inner light--not to be taught to other people--forced upon them, or anything.! If they ever ask--and much later down the way, you will be given instructions that you may be aware; that you, then, will be able to "check it out" whether the person is really wanting to be a student and study or whether they are merely curious. So at the first there are two or more people--any number of them; there may be 50 where you work, or it may be a large family, or it may be some kind of public service, (some civic work)--whatever and where ever you are. You will probably have many relationships. Whatever relationships one finds one self in, one has something to observe there; and the ideas of the teaching throws light on the relationships so that you may understand WHAT'S GOING ON in the inner man--the inner state--one's state of being. So there are two or more people in relationship. There's nobody so isolated that you do not have some other person that you have some relationship with, work, play, home, whatever--everyday. This work is not for hermits. Only one of the people need to be acquainted with the ideas; in fact sometimes it is better that only one be acquainted with it-you! One has the ideas and is observing; and all the others are going merrily on their way--totally unaware that you are doing the observing--and that one must be using the teaching for self at least part of the time. Teaching that is not used, is without any value whatsoever. Some of the ideas of the Science of Man for study and experimentation, at this moment, will only be worthwhile as something to study--to be aware of--that there is a different set of ideas. You will be given specific assignments, specific bits of work, and specific ways of observing these various ideas from time to time, so don't be in a hurry. "Haste makes waste", as the old sayings go. Go slowly, methodically and carefully, proceeding on one's way. One is traveling over a very new road, and to you, it sometimes is rocky or bumpy at first; however, very shortly it will be a delightful way. So the ideas of the school are that man or woman in everyday life has never studied or been exposed, or had the opportunity to use various ideas that throw light on the spiritual aspect of man. This includes the relationship between his psychology, his physiology, his structure and his biology. Further that the person without that understanding or having that opportunity is mechanical. Now anything mechanical does not have a will of its own. It does not have a determination of its own--it is purely subject to what happens to it. Your automobile may be sitting in the street-washed-shined--motor tuned, and everything in perfect shape; but it has no will or determination as to whether it will go or whether it sits. You go out, turn the key, and it performs according to the way it is equipped to perform--what it's designed for. A human being may be in such a state that anyone can push a button and cause him to be angry, or cause him to work, or to cause him to agree with many ideas which will possibly lead him into a state of slavery sooner or later--a state of dependency on something else. Further if the car is just setting in the street and something bumps it, it is all bent out of shape; and we might say that when we become angry or worried or excited or frightened or resentful or bashful or many other such emotions such as jealousy and so on, that we are bent out of shape--we are far from being happy and pleased within self. We are far from being conscious. We did not choose the state, it happened to us. And in that state we are mechanical. So the first thing that we will observe, is that we don't choose our states. So right here you may take a piece of paper and begin to write down the various things you see all this week--day after day--as you listen to the tape, and observe what goes on in relationships--how many times one behaves mechanically. Exercise on mechanical behavior You might say that we have buttons within, so somebody comes along and pushes a button, and I'm angry--somebody comes along and pushes a button, and I'm very delighted. Somebody else pushes a button and I feel annoyed or aggravated, or I'm upset in some other way. Now we didn't choose to be this way--it just happened. Obviously none of us would choose to be upset--we would choose to be peaceful and serene; but we, then, notice that we are not that way much of the time. Now maybe we go along for a several days and everybody is pushing the proper button; and I feel delighted. But sooner or later in relationship, somebody forgets--somebody moves something that I left in a certain place--somebody says "Why are you doing that?"--somebody forgets to do what they said they would do; and let's observe the mechanical reaction. Those are just a little samples of the ways buttons are pushed. Second idea that the school ideas are, that as well as man being mechanical--that he is 100% subject to suggestion 100% of the time. Now for a suggestion to work, it must be based on something that is the prime form within man-his frame of reference. Very early in our existence, possibly almost at the moment of birth, we formed a fundamental conclusion that the whole purpose of living is to regain the non-disturbed state by gaining pleasure and escaping pain. Now most of us have never consciously thought of that; but as we observe--along with observing how much we're mechanical-- we will observe that we are always looking for comfort and pleasure on all levels; and struggling to avoid pain on all levels. We'll take up the various levels from time to time. So you might say that this is a program for the inner man; and to use present day computer language--that one is programmed--and that anything that does not bring about pleasure or comfort, one reacts to; and anything that brings about pain--one reacts to. So all suggestion either holds that one will have pleasure and comfort in the future, or that one will experience pain in the future--if one does not do so and so. By observing this we will begin to observe suggestion--that we are 100% subject to suggestion 100% of the time. In other words, we always hear it. Now if we have an unexamined self and are unaware of this basic value--this basic programming that the whole purpose of living is to regain the nondisturbed state--we will find that we are not only subject to suggestion, but that we are controlled by suggestion very frequently--if not 100% of the time. So to leave ourselves a little bit of leeway, we will say almost all the time. Exercise on Suggestion However let's write it down and see how often that I read the newspaper article that says some terrible catastrophe is going to occur; and that I feel upset. I read the epidemic of the flu or some other form of epidemic is coming across the country--maybe from across the ocean--maybe it's the London flu, or Spanish flu or Italian flu or Yugoslavian flu, we never have Russian flu because that's a bad kind--we don't have that. But let's see if we become concerned. Let's see if it threatens, and so we experience a moment of feeling in an urgency in one form or another. As long as this is unexamined it will continue. So we will start examining where I hear suggestion. Now remember that SUGGESTION ALWAYS OFFERS A REWARD for a certain line of behavior or thought or belief; and to fail to have that particular line of thought or behavior or belief IS THREATENED WITH A LOSS. All of these are suggestions you may be aware of. Now you may read that cancer is rampant, or that heart conditions claimed so many lives; and we might begin to feel our pulse or examine our skin, or feel the body to see if we can find a lump somewhere; and if we do, we find some sort of sudden excitement--a sense of urgency; and this, of course, has it's affect on the physiology. It has it's affect on the anatomy; and it certainly has it's affect on the biology of the body. So much of it starts, (if we will begin to observe), not from something that slips up and attacks us; but from something that arises in the inner man--the spirit of man--the soul or psyche. Now generally today we use the word psychology. Sometime ago it was used "soul" in the English translation; and that is an exact translation of the Greek word "psyche" which, of course, is where the word psychology comes from. We might notice, {and it is a tenant of the teaching), that every suggestion that was accepted uncritically, just accepted because it sounded true--that each of those suggestions becomes a separate personality. We will use the terminology "not-I" for a false personality. I'm sure every one is acquainted with the story of Pinocchio; a man carved out a wooden doll and due to some reason or another, the wooden doll suddenly became alive and ran off on it's own and caused all manner of mischief. So we each have many, many, many Pinocchio's or "not-I's". We formed them by agreeing within to a suggestion--they stayed--they grew--they multiplied; and they have become quite powerful. They go their own way within; and one at a time takes over and runs the affairs of this household called "I" or whatever your name may be--the "self". We all think that each of these "I's" is one and the same--the school teaching says they are separate personalities. As we proceed, we'll find they are in various groups; and that certain ones of them will cooperate, and other certain ones will cooperate in another camp--and possibly, that every one of them has only one real purpose in mind---destroy the living being. The next idea of the school, is that man feels he has rights; and that he must "stick up for these rights" and that he "blames" everything that, to him, seems to prevent him from having these rights. Now the "rights" come from the idea of having something a number of times; and then we feel we're entitled to it. We, possibly, feel that the whole world, {now we said feel that way, but it's an unknowing}; but as we observe it, will come to light that we feel that we're the center of universe; and that everybody "ought to" spend their entire time taking care of my rights. I have them--they should get out of the way--they "should" do what they're supposed to do when they're supposed to. Of course if we want to consider rights for a moment, we might consider how we came into this earth world-naked-broke-helpless--didn't even understand the language--didn't know what we really needed, and maybe we still don't. We found everything provided for us, and we managed to grow up to our present state of affairs. We didn't bring a thing to insure that, and we didn't even know how to ask. So wonder if we have any rights or could it be we've had a lot of privileges a number of times; and if something is given to us over and over, we begin to accept it as a right--and feel entitled to it. Exercise on "Rights" Now we will make another sheet of paper and put at the top of it "My Rights", and as you find yourself talking to your self or talking tosomeone else and defending a certain right or claiming a certain right saying, "Well I have a right to have this.", and "I have a right to do that", I wonder if we could write that down; and then on the other side of the paper write, "I obtained this right by…………" and put down what gave it to you--how you earned it. Now anything that's given to us is a privilege; that, of course, can be taken away--regardless of whether it's called a right or not. But anything that I have formed a title to-earned--may be a right. So let's begin to see what we really have "rights to". Anything that can be taken away from you is not necessarily a right, is it? Now you will notice one thing in the teaching of school ideas--specific meanings are put on many words. These will be definitely brought to attention, and they will used as much as possible. Now we have thrown in the word "not-I" as anything that resulted from a suggestion--that has been accepted and acted upon, thought to be true, and it is now a personality going on it's own. We have seen rights as something that cannot be taken away from us. You know even life can be taken away from us by almost anyone with a hammer or a gun or a knife or a little vile of poison--or a whole lot of other things. So maybe life is a privilege, and maybe driving is a privilege. The greatest way to lose privileges is to mistake them for rights, and start sticking up for them. Perhaps, if we saw something as a privilege, we would extend a certain amount of effort, attention, and thought to continue that privilege. We would make every effort to maintain the privileges we now have and to enhance them-and to, possibly, gain even more. So it might be very interesting if we in observing what we consider to be our rights--we notice that most of them are privileges; and what have I done to maintain those privileges--enhance them, and gain others. Another idea of the school is that man has emotions of anger, guilt, fear, insecurity, inferiority, and their many subdivisions like jealousy, envy, resentment--all of which man was never designed to have; and are, therefore, stress to him. When he has stress, there are many adaptations to stress which is disintegrating. So these basic emotions of anger, guilt, fear, inferiority and insecurity, and their many synonyms and subdivisions are not proper to man. He was never designed to have them. That the disintegration is due to his conditioning--to his basic conclusion that the purpose for living is to be nondisturbed--to the many suggestions as to what is to blame--how he "should be and do". These basic emotions bring him into a state of being called greed, vanity and pride. Greed Now we will define greed as wanting more, better and different. No matter what one has, after a little while; even though one is delighted with it to begin with, one grows weary and tired of it--or one begins to take it for granted. One begins to accept that one is entitled to it, and then one wants more, better and different. That is greed. Vanity Vanity is all the "not-I's" having a false picture of oneself of always being in the right, and being a very wonderful person that is mistreated. Pride And pride is defending that false picture of self. Take care of doing the work. To only hear the words, {even if you listened to them every hour}, would do nothing. So if one applies and does the work, one will find many great things.
