Transcript
- 0:01A feeling an emotion, a thought, arises within us.
- 0:07Do we manufacture these or are we the recipients of them from
- 0:12elsewhere if we manufacture them?
- 0:16How exactly do we do that? Where does the basis for that?
- 0:20Thought or feeling come from? What causative factors are there
- 0:25for a specific feeling or thought to come to our awareness
- 0:29at a specific time? Most people have experienced
- 0:34suddenly arising feelings or thoughts that seemed foreign to
- 0:37them or their current state of mind, sometimes they experience
- 0:42the same thought at the same time, as others, in their
- 0:46presence, people sometimes can pick up the mood or atmosphere
- 0:51of another individual without any obvious visual or verbal
- 0:55cues. There are occasions when hunger
- 0:59suddenly arises after an interaction with an individual,
- 1:03which is otherwise inexplicable sexual.
- 1:07Energies are sometimes transmitted from one individual
- 1:10to another through vibrations that are almost visible and
- 1:14palpable to others. Some individuals can see or
- 1:18sense. What is known as the aura around
- 1:22an individual experiments. Have shown that the aura can
- 1:26actually be photographed with special equipment and that it
- 1:30changes color, intensity and range beyond the confines of the
- 1:35body. Based on specific, Focus,
- 1:37thoughts, or energetic action. All of these type of things
- 1:43illustrate that forces are moving, that are independent of
- 1:47an individual's own ability to manufacture a thought, feeling,
- 1:52or emotion, and that we receive these things from outside.
- 1:57And once tuned to them, we allow them to arrive and manifest, in
- 2:03our minds, our hearts, and our Vital centers.
- 2:09Dr. Dalal writes, quote, the inner, or subliminal being
- 2:13receives the context of the environment world through the
- 2:17environmental Consciousness. Or the circum, conscient a
- 2:21formation of the subliminal Consciousness which projects
- 2:25itself beyond the body SRI aurobindo indicates quote.
- 2:31It is through this environmental Consciousness that the thoughts
- 2:35feelings, Etc, of others pass to enter into one.
- 2:39It is through this. Also, that waves of the
- 2:42universal Force, desire sex, Etc, come in and take possession
- 2:48of the Mind, vital or body, each man has his own personal
- 2:53Consciousness, entrenched in his body and gets into touch with
- 2:58his surroundings. Only through his body and senses
- 3:00and the mind using the senses yet all the time, the universal
- 3:07forces are pouring into him without His knowing it, he is
- 3:11aware only of thoughts feelings Etc that rise to the surface.
- 3:16And these he takes for his own, really?
- 3:20They come from outside in mind waves, vital waves, waves of
- 3:25feeling and sensation Etc which take particular form in him and
- 3:30rise to the surface after they have got inside.
- 3:35But they do not get into his body at once.
- 3:39He carries about with him and environmental Consciousness
- 3:43called by the theosophist the aura into, which they first
- 3:47enter, if you can become conscious of this environmental
- 3:51self of yours, then you can catch the thought passion,
- 3:56suggestion, or force of illness and prevent it from entering
- 4:01into you. End quote, reference SRI
