Glossary of Important Terms

 

• Akashic records
  The distorted and mangled concoction of data trawled from fundamental memory, which the garbage had been passing to anyone who sought to read the 'Akashic records' (or indeed fundamental memory). The garbage had such people believe that the Akashic records are a completely true and reliable repository of all the knowledge and memories of events that have ever happened in all of 'Existence' (i.e., sort-of what fundamental memory really is). In reality they're actually a repository of fiction, which happens to be distantly based on pieces of historical data.

  Nobody at all can 'read' fundamental memory itself (which is where the genuine data is), at least in the way that people always want to 'read' it, and so the garbage, which could 'read' that data from one's own deepest aspects (but without genuinely understanding it), then would string together elements to make some sort of story or 'explanation', presenting that then as 'historical fact' or 'the true explanation' of something — always with an agenda to seriously mislead.

  The Akashic records, thus, were a sort of astral repository of distorted 'globs' of what the garbage had trawled from fundamental memory.

  In this way, for example, the Atlantis legend (actually a myth) has come to many people from the 'Akashic records' as supposed historical fact for humans here on Earth. My own inner inquiry about this points to the Atlantis legend as actually being based on historical events, albeit in a distorted way, but NOT on Earth, and indeed most likely even in a prior universe, and what actually happened bears only very partial resemblances to the Atlantis story that various people and traditions have picked up, always from the garbage.

  Indeed, there looks to be a distinct possibility that the original historical events that were used to construct the Atlantis legend were those in which actual human-type beings inadvertently created the garbage — a scenario that I speculatively describe in The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks. That would be a real irony if true, but would fit well the general pattern of how the garbage chooses and distorts the 'information' that it brings us.

  Similarly, the whole complex of Arthurian legend, centred around the purported King Arthur, together with its various characters, appears to be just myth that has been based on probably a whole lot of very widely separate historical events, generally on other planets (i.e., in different solar systems) and probably at least some in one or more other universes, and all strung together to give a story that lures people into preoccupation with legend believed as at least partly 'fact' (so cultivating lots of illusory realities) and, of course, the use of 'special powers' (i.e., 'magic'), which latter is strongly garbage-connecting and harmful to outright dangerous.

  And similarly yet again, the Gilgamesh legend is apparently drawn from various widely separate scenarios and events, again very likely before this particular Universe existed, and put together by the garbage to make into an 'archetype' within the astral non-reality, as part of its ongoing campaign of cultivating in people a sense of longing for a supposedly ideal companion or soul mate / 'twin flame' — a great obstacle to self-actualization and the consequent freedom from interference / control by the garbage.

 

• Alexander Technique
  At its standard level of operation, as officially taught, this is a mental discipline that enables you to progressively undo your lifelong accumulation of habits of body misuse. All sorts of spine and limb joint problems can be minimized, eliminated or indeed avoided altogether as a result of the better use of your body that you learn with the AT.

  Indeed it got me myself quite dramatically out of a pickle with neck pain and back pains, and enabled me to largely avoid further foot, knee and sciatica pains and indeed effectively to declare physiotherapists and osteopaths redundant in my life, so saving me a packet. Through the AT I also learnt a much more efficient and less stressful mode of walking, which enables me, even in my 70's now, to walk in a loose and flexible and fast way that would put even many a teenager to shame.

  In reality, the AT is more subtle and far-reaching in its application and effects than is normally taught — prestigious professional qualifications being no indication that an AT teacher would recognise that level of the AT, and many don't, at least in any functional or effective way.

  In its fullest use, the AT is a mental discipline for cultivating the ability to observe not only how one is using one's body but also how one is using one's 'mind', and to become progressively more able to recognise patterns and habitual tendencies at all times in one's everyday life and interrupt them so that one becomes more flexible in outlook and actions.

  When used fully like that, the AT is potent in supporting one's self-actualization process. The resultant increase of practical self-awareness or clear-mindedness differs fundamentally from what's referred to in Buddhism as mindfulness. The latter sort of 'mindfulness', which is meditation-based, pays little or no attention to body alignment in everyday life, and the meditation itself damages the brain and makes one effectively only partially human, living a relatively passive, unmotivated life with a laissez-faire outlook on the life experience. On the other hand, the AT, fully understood and applied (which is rare!) cultivates what can also be called proactive mindfulness, which is the full, comprehensive mindfulness, resulting from the consequent enhanced brain and mental function.

  For more about the AT, please see
  The Alexander Technique: an experience-based guide.

 

• 'appropriate' (referring to people's outlook and behaviour)
  A person is being 'appropriate' when he is concealing at least some aspects of himself in order to present an image to gain the approval of particular people or people in general. He is thus being 'self-dishonest' and living out an almost circular absurdity, in which he seeks to be the way that he believes other people expect of him. Unfortunately this, in varying degrees, is the normal state of people in general; only a tiny proportion of people are reasonably clear of 'appropriateness' in their outlook and behaviour.

  For an explanation of authentic vs 'appropriate' living, please see

  Do you want to be 'appropriate'? — Or authentic?.

 

• archetype / stereotype
  In this particular context, I'm defining an archetype as a special type of illusory reality, which is common to all human (-type) consciousness throughout all of 'Existence', whereas other illusory realities are more or less an individually experienced phenomenon, even if very widely harboured. 'Ordinary' illusory realities in their various ways present the affected person with individual 'specifics', while an archetype presents a fundamental basic TYPE of life situation or experience.

  You could call it a sort of template of illusory human experiences. Additionally, it's trauma-laden or otherwise emotionally charged. The archetype thus really never manifests 'naked', as-is, as an 'ordinary' illusory reality does, but it acts as the foundation or framework upon which an appropriate 'ordinary' illusory reality (or indeed a whole bunch of them) can manifest, which include the individual specifics.

  It appears that there are different 'levels' of archetype, defined by each archetype's degree of specificity. However, to my understanding so far, the only really important distinction to keep clearly in mind is the distinction between the primary archetypes (including the proto-archetype) and non-primary archetypes.

  I should emphasize that I've identified what I'm calling primary archetypes, and have come up with the latter concept, from scratch. Therefore they're unlikely to correspond, at least particularly closely, to what any other information source would be using that term for. Generally, most archetypes described or listed by others wouldn't be what I'd regard as 'primary', because they'd be more specific and 'concrete'.

  Primary archetypes (as defined by me) are so basic and fundamental that if you were to succeed in 'seeing' one, all you'd be able to 'see' would be a nasty-looking and even more nasty-feeling vague blur. What I'm calling the 'proto-archetype' is the primary archetype that forms the foundation of all the others, and indeed of that whole unedifying edifice of archetypes. Non-primary archetypes, then, could be regarded as at least partly 'visible', in that they have at least some degree of specifics.

  For example, many people might think of Gilgamesh and Enkidu, or even the whole Gilgamesh legend, as an archetype, but from this particular perspective that would be only one particular manifestation or realization of the underlying primary archetype (or rather, in the Gilgamesh case, two or more of them), which also has given rise to other stories and legends, and all manner of illusory realities in the minds of individual people — each differing in their specifics. Those underlying primary archetypes, however, don't contain any specific story themselves.

  Rather, each is a generalized 'energy' configuration from which emotionally charged 'story' of particular kinds would emerge at any opportunity. So, the Gilgamesh legend, and indeed any other legend, would superficially be presenting very much non-primary archetypes as manifestations of the underlying but non-narrative primary archetypes.

  Archetypes have a strong emotional 'payload', and they're NOT BENIGN. They've been created in the astral non-reality (partially equating with the 'collective unconsciousness' or 'common human consciousness' of various psychological disciplines) by the garbage for its own nefarious purposes in manipulating, controlling and attacking people.

  I've produced a very provisional, non-exhaustive list of primary archetypes, and I see that there appears to be one underlying archetype that is effectively the kingpin of the whole unedifying show — and that one's really a 'two-headed beast' because any description of it would make it appear to be two, whereas it's effectively just one:

  Void… One's ceasing to exist…

  …as the ultimate horror

  Albeit universally pervasive, this archetype is actually nonsensical, because the reality is that the whole concept of existence / non-existence and indeed void is simply meaningless with regard to consciousness. We experience and thus we seem to exist. We could never know of our not existing, so there can't be anything about this actual non-issue to disturb or worry anyone, let alone be a 'horror' for them! Similarly, 'void' is an absurdity for exactly the same reason.

  Void is non-existence. Thus nobody — indeed consciousness itself — could ever know genuine void. If you think you're observing or experiencing void, you're undoubtedly being deceived directly or indirectly by the garbage, because the mere fact of your observing or experiencing what you take to be 'void' demonstrates that, whatever it is, it's NOT genuine void! What you experience you experience, and what you don't experience you don't experience — which is just another way of saying the truism, What is, is.

  For this very reason, it looks to be a remarkably easy matter for people to get clearing their whole 'package' of garbage interferences / attacks that are based in that actually nonsensical 'mother of all archetypes' or 'proto-archetype'. That looks to have the potential to result in one's becoming immune to virtually all garbage interferences / attacks.

  Stereotypes are really just the special case of particular non-primary archetypes that are 'static'. That is, they're like a 'frozen' portrait — a bunch of characteristics — and don't contain any sort of chronological sequence or 'action'. An example of such a stereotype would be 'ideal man [/woman]'.

  Important note!
  I'm reasonably satisfied now, in 2023, that the astral really has been closed off from the ordinary 'minds' of all humans, and that anything that was within or sourced from the latter, such as the garbage, the primary archetypes and the Akashic records, have themselves all been dissolved.

  However, the situation is more complex than just that. Please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

• ascension
  A mythical happening, widely believed in by people with New Age related beliefs, in which a person's so-called (and again fictional) 'vibration rate' becomes so high — generally as a result of their self-healing and spiritual practices — that they enter a different and supposedly ideal state, with an integration of 'ordinary mind' and 'higher self' in a higher 'dimension' — usually stated to be the 5th 'dimension'. There are many gurus and cults leading large numbers of people towards supposed 'ascension', much of which was supposed to be scheduled to occur in 2012.

  Unfortunately, what's really happening is that those people are progressively weakening their grounding towards a very seriously ungrounded state, and they may indeed at some point actually subjectively undergo experiences that they take to be their 'ascension' — but what they'd be actually undergoing is particular astral realm experiences in which they're trapped by the garbage — or rather, now, their own left-over brain function patterns mimicking it (see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…).

  Please note, therefore, that what a 'New-Ager' would describe as your 'vibration rate' is nothing other than your state of ungroundedness — what's called a high 'vibration rate' actually being a very significantly weakly grounded state, without a real vibration in sight!

  That, then, gives an interesting significance to the rare occasion when somebody who is deeply into 'spirituality' or 'spiritual healing' informs me with derision, that their reading of parts of this site has brought their 'vibration rate' to a low level. That suggests that my site was having a really healthy effect for them, in interfering with their ingrained pattern of keeping themselves seriously weakly grounded!

 

• astral non-reality, 'the astral'
  This is what I was calling the astral sub-reality until late 2015, when I came to understand its true nature more precisely. In practice I'm commonly using the shorthand term 'the astral' for this, just for convenience. This, however, does incur the risk of confusion for some people, because that term is used almost universally to mean considerably less than what I myself mean by it. That's why, when I remember, I'm giving it a clarifying little pop-up reminder that it's carrying my specific meaning.

  In relation to all my own observations and simply applying simple common sense to them, it became clear that 'the astral' actually included ALL non-physical 'dimensions' or aspects of 'reality' that were not simply what I'll loosely call 'mind' here, and contained ALL non-physical beings or 'presences', no matter whether 'low', 'middling', 'high' or 'divine' — and all of those were nothing more than illusory manifestations created in people's mindspace by the garbage.

  As I explain in The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks, 'the astral', which people had been regarding as a particular 'alternative', non-physical, aspect of reality, and the contents of which were not constrained by physical 'laws', has been a massive source of massive problems for Humanity.
  

  Starting in 2015, I worked with deeper consciousness, to work out what it really was (quickly established — an equivalent within deeper consciousness of a fistula (an abnormal channel between one part of the body and another, or to the exterior), as recognised in medical practice. The 'astral' was thus an aspect of consciousness that was never designed / intended to be accessible to people's conscious 'minds', and thus was the equivalent of a system-reserved partition on a computer's system drive.

  Although, for a particular reason, widespread dramatic positive change hasn't yet been showing up by way of clinching public confirmation, I have reason to be reasonably confident that, as from early 2022, the astral has been closed-off from the ordinary 'mind' of every human and human-type being in the whole of 'Existence'.

• astral realm
  A particular type of illusory reality that is 'up-front' and which could also be loosely called an 'action' illusory reality. Whereas most illusory realities can be compared to covert distorting filters upon one's experience of 'What Is', an astral realm presents either a whole illusory scenario or a prominent 'action' element of a complex of mostly more covert illusory realities.

  Astral realm experiences tend to seem subjectively 'real', although a person with sufficient clear-mindedness could at least theoretically notice certain give-away signs that one is in an astral realm. Such experiences include 'astral travel' and supposed contacts from and abductions by extra-terrestrials — very likely ALL of such experiences — and all manner of other things that actually haven't happened, and usually couldn't happen, in the physical 'here and now'.

  I eventually came to understand that there's a fundamental difference between an astral realm and the 'distorting filter' type of illusory reality, because the astral realm is experienced within the astral non-reality, whereas the other type is primarily within the person's own mindspace, even though many examples can have an astral connection.

  For more explanation, where I also recount some educational examples of astral realm experiences that I myself have had, please see
  Beliefs and illusory realities — Their role in human irrationality.

  However, as the astral has now apparently been closed off from all human(-type) 'minds' in the whole of 'Existence', any apparent 'astral realm' experiences that people have would be illusory emulations of them created by remaining ingrained patterns of brain function that had been created by the person's previous garbage interferences. Please see

• astral sub-reality
  The term I used from 2007 to late 2015 for what, with good reason, I nowadays call the astral non-reality.

 

• astral travel / astral projection
  The practice of subjectively going 'out of body' and travelling to different locations, both apparently real and 'physical', and in what appear to be other realities or 'dimensions'.

  This is a disturbingly popular practice, which is greatly harmful. The garbage has been cultivating many people's interest in doing this, and indeed succeeded in making it quite addictive for particular people. It involved creating astral realms in which one subjectively appears to travel to other locations through the so-called 'astral dimension' or 'astral plane' — but really one isn't travelling or projecting oneself anywhere, and one does NOT see anything real, for it's all just illusion, however lifelike, within the astral non-reality.

  The highly esoteric-sounding definitions / descriptions of astral travel that you can read in many places are all bogus — just more illusory realities that the garbage has given to the people who come out with such descriptions.

  Here is a quote from a comment in an entry in my website Visitors' Book:

  I've become very interested in astral projection but your website has caused me to think twice about it although I still will continue to explore it since it sounds like fun to fly […]

  That's a classic example of the bizarre thoughtlessness of people indulging in astral travel. Sort-of, It's fun to swim, so, never mind all the warnings from sourpusses like this Philip Goddard guy — I'm going swimming in the local sewer — you really see things there!!.
  

  What isn't understood by people who do this is that, by going 'out of body' to sufficient extent for astral travel experiences, they're ungrounding themselves sufficiently to put them much more deeply at the mercy and behest of the garbage, which can then install in their 'system' various sorts of very harmful attachment or 'energy configuration', including a partial walk-in, a so-called 'spirit attachment', 'implants', and indeed extremely harmful elementals, and they can easily also be made part of the cacoprotean network — in other words, an unwitting part of the garbage itself!

  Such people are thus not only bound to land themselves directly with massive problems, but also, through their becoming progressively more weakly grounded, are making themselves progressively more open to interference and attack from the garbage and increasingly prone to physical and mental deterioration.

  It's fun to fly, indeed? — Ouch!

  The worst harm of mucking about with what people are still subjectively experiencing as the astral should be gradually declining now, and also people's insane motivation to involve themselves in such ways.

 

• astrology
  Astrology is totally devoid of any valid basis, being founded on a bunch of false premises (basic assumptions), particularly relating to causality.

  It's a completely garbage-sourced and garbage-connecting belief system, actually a convoluted superstition, in which one can supposedly know all manner of things about a person, including details of personality, supposed fortunes / misfortunes, and the person's future, including the forecasting of particular hazards that the person would need to avoid in the future, and any supposed 'destiny' of theirs, and so on — all based on the configurations of stars and planets in the sky at time of the person's birth.

  So, if you were born at 3 o'clock in the afternoon on the 9th January 1944, supposedly the position of particular star and planet configurations in the sky at that point determines who you are and what you're like and what your future is most likely to involve, and so on.

  When you take an actually rational, clear-minded (i.e., intelligent) look at the whole astrology system (ignoring newspaper 'astrologers' anyway, for on the whole they aren't proper astrologers in the first place), you see that it simply doesn't 'add up', and that one has to be in an ungrounded and immensely irrational and gullible state to accept it as anything genuinely useful at all.

  For a start, if a person's time and date of birth really does have any significance for that person at all (which I should think would be negligible anyway for at least the vast majority of people), it can be only through effects upon the new-born of the state of the season and the light / sound patterns that greet the new-born, and, more importantly, the physical / mental state of the mother, which would no doubt vary according to time of day and time of year — and of course all manner of real-time events in the infant's immediate environment.

  As for star configurations or so-called 'signs', where is the scientific research that has shown that they have any causal relationship upon any person's life???! — Nowhere! Absolutely nowhere! You might as well read the seaweed on a beach to get your 'signs'!

  Astrology is harmful in all manner of ways and is never genuinely just a benign bit of fun. Quite apart from cultivating an illusory reality in people's minds, in which certain star configurations are treated as 'signs' that reveal all sorts of (largely incorrect or at least highly misleading) information about people, one great iniquity of it is that it leads to each person being categorized by the supposed 'zodiac sign' that he was supposedly born under — actually simply a particular month-long period within the year. All sorts of qualities are ascribed to a person on that basis.

  Many people have told me that of course I had to be 'a Leo', because of my particular personal characteristics — and I was born in the middle of August, yes, so the astrological description of and predictions for me must all be right, then! — Well, except that so many other people born in that same August period, and even on the same day, are very, very different!

  The truth is that each person is unique, and any system of categorizing people, let alone one with not a scrap of rational or verifiable basis, fails to see what's unique about the person, and ends up with people actually trying to, or being pressured to, live out the stereotype that has been allocated to the category (i.e., label) that has been given to the person out of the astrology belief system.

  Thus, to a very considerable extent astrology implicitly denies a person's free will, making the person appear to be just a puppet of the Universe and 'Higher Powers'. If a 'destiny' is indicated, as it often is, that in itself is a very considerable denial of the person's free will. That of course is all part of the garbage's agenda to get us all nicely tied up in power / control agendas and busy ourselves with either controlling others or/and being controlled — and so having no self command to enable us to get into any worthwhile self-actualization process and thus get free of the garbage's interferences and influence.

  Effectively, thus, Astrology puts a CURSE (yes, literally, not figuratively, a curse!) upon each person who involves themselves with it or at least takes any astrological readings for them as having any truth. That's what a curse does — it takes away your free will and forces you into behaving in certain ways or going through particular experiences, regardless of whether they'd really be appropriate or 'right' for you at the particular future times.

  What astrology devotees do to convince themselves that astrology gives us useful or even important information is to be extremely selective in what they observe about each person, in order to make them appear to conform to their supposed 'star sign' or indeed 'chart'. This and that detail appears to be correctly describing me, therefore it's all correct, and astrology is for real! You simply ignore all the rest, which you take not to describe you properly at all! Exactly the same flawed mindset keeps clairvoyance and channelling and divining (including readings from Tarot, I Ching, 'angel cards', and runes) in business.

  It's true that 'serious' or 'proper' astrologers can come up with very detailed 'information' about a person, and in 2004 I had one do a detailed 'chart' and report for me (he offered to do it, free of charge, because he thought I was an interesting case; I'd not have asked for one!). And what did he come up with? — Of course, another wodge of the same seriously misleading and harmful (mis)information set that had been coming to me from various clairvoyants — though with an excruciating complexity of details all linked to particular aspects of star and planetary configurations allegedly at the time of my birth.

  It was all clearly garbage-sourced misinformation, containing various little bits of apparently correct description of me — though much of even that was merely seeming correct, because at that time I'd accepted the garbage's big story about me that it had channelled to me; I'd find little correspondence nowadays between that astrological report on me and what I know / understand about myself.

  One final point. It's important to understand that the principles outlined above refer to ALL astrology, within ANY culture or tradition. NO astrology is benign, and ALL astrology, by its very nature, effectively puts a curse upon whoever involves themselves with it sufficiently seriously.

 

• attack (by the garbage (mistakenly equated with 'dark force', 'forces of darkness', 'forces of evil'))
  A wide range of behaviours aimed at harming the target person either directly or indirectly — the latter through disruptions in his/her life, or/and controlling the person. For most people the attacks are generally mostly covert, but some people are targeted for openly rough treatment, with brazen severe attacks, in some cases clearly aimed at wrecking or indeed killing the person (the latter most commonly by attempting to drive the person to suicide, but can include the setting-up of elaborate psychic attack scenarios).

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  The most commonly recognised type of attack is that with cocktails of emotional trauma 'energy' and feelings, and these appear to be generally the real nature of the 'attacks' of depression, anxiety, panic and other painful emotional feelings, that drive so many people to doctors' surgeries to pick up their prescriptions for anti-depressants and other very harmful psycho-active medications — neither doctor nor 'patient' having any idea of the real cause of the problem.

  As from late 2017, I'm distinguishing between two broad categories of attack:

  • simple attacks, each of which is based on a very simple 'story' or idea that can normally be summed up in a sentence, such as Something nasty is happening to me or something nasty will happen to me if I do xyz (or if xyz happens), and so forth. Such attacks are each more or less self-sufficient and can generally be quickly 'zapped' using my methods for dissolving the underlying illusory reality and disabling the emotional button-pushing involved.

  • macro-attacks, which are much more extensive and prolonged, based on a more involved story, which indeed is often extremely complex, convoluted, and often multi-layered. A macro-attack always contains a plethora of simple attacks and often smaller macro-attacks. It's a sort of 'container' in which the various strong and really disruptive attacks occur.

    Commonly but not always, the container attack itself may be felt as a more or less low-level sustained attack that persists between the contained much stronger simple or smaller macro attacks. Macro-attacks take much more time, awareness, mental focus and ingenuity to clear with my methods, though that's still possible for anyone with reasonable mental clarity to achieve.

  This distinction is a remarkable parallel to the difference between a single-cell and multi-cell thunderstorm (particularly a thunderstorm meso-system).

  It's generally the macro-attacks (or at least intense simple attacks within a macro-attack) that most readily get people into psychiatric units.

  From a healing perspective, it's high priority to get addressing any macro-attack, or indeed any 'container' macro-attack that's harbouring smaller macro-attacks. Until the outermost macro-attack is dissolved, the contained attacks would tend to reappear after being 'zapped', using variants of their original underlying illusory reality or 'story'.

  So, by starting with the biggest, most all-embracing, story and dissolving that, you're freeing up its contained attack scenarios to be cleanly and rapidly dissolved, with much less likelihood of their re-emerging, phoenix-like, after being zapped, now with a variant 'story'.

  You can read in some detail about the types of garbage attack and their modus operandi, in
  The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks.

 

• aura (around a person)
  Please see 'energy system'.

 

• authentic (referring to people's outlook and behaviour)
  A person is being authentic when he is simply 'being himself' and not trying to cover that up and present an image to gain the approval of particular people or people in general. A person who is living authentically is being 'self-honest', and is living a life free from the tensions and conflicts implicit in living out the absurdities of 'appropriate' living.

  For an explanation of authentic vs 'appropriate' living, please see
  Do you want to be 'appropriate'? — Or authentic?.

 

• awareness
  Please see consciousness.

 

• belief / belief system
  A notion or view / understanding of 'reality' or some aspect or detail of it that a person adheres to regardless of whether or not it tallies with the 'reality' of 'What Is'. All beliefs thus are a complete obstruction to establishing what's true in any subject area impinged upon by the respective beliefs. Every single belief is thus intrinsically self-deception — ALWAYS, with no exception. It makes no difference whatsoever that the latter statement would discomfort, be dismissed by, or even anger many people.

  Such latter people need to hold themselves up to proper, rational scrutiny instead of seeking comfort within an anaesthetizing cocoon of self-deception! Their big need is to dissolve the issues they're carrying, which make them feel that they need the 'comforting' of a pile of self-deception to hide those issues. Yes, if you believe 'God' or some equivalent actually exists, then you have a serious need to dissolve the issues you're carrying, which make you feel the need to believe in that 'God' or other supposed external 'Ultimate'.

  Effective methods for achieving that are available on this very site — though generally they'd work effectively only for people with sufficient motivation and mental clarity. For the most part, other people would continue to be effectively lost, remaining in the captivity of the garbage.

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  The term 'belief system' is generally used when the belief is a far-reaching one — usually relating to the overall nature of 'reality'. Each belief reflects an illusory reality (or group of them) that's stored somewhere or other in the person's mindspace whether or not the person is aware of any of them.

  Typically, in religious or spirituality-oriented circles people seek to make belief systems appear more acceptable to people who don't accept their self-deceptions, by calling such a belief system a 'faith' or, sometimes, 'deep conviction', so that it's then generally regarded as 'sacred' or 'holy' and therefore sacrosanct and not to be discussed or dismissed or challenged or held up to proper scrutiny in any way.

  That of course is just an additional layer of self-deception that is then foisted upon others to deceive them too and make them afraid of speaking out against the respective sets of (usually institutionalized) seriously harmful self-deceptions.

  Two neat concise ways to define belief:

  • A belief is Wherever you apply the pretence or appearance of CERTAINTY to your view of anything. Simple as that. Reality knows no certainties.
  • A belief tells you: Xyz is true. Therefore, you mustn't question, doubt, or refute the accuracy of that statement, or the validity of its source. .

  For more explanation please see
  Beliefs and illusory realities — Their role in human irrationality.

  In common usage, 'belief' is also widely used (but not by me) to include any working assumption or working model / working hypothesis that one may be using. This causes a great deal of confusion among people generally, so that they don't recognise when they're being rational (using a working assumption that can be amended or dropped according to what's most helpful in the light of new data or new requirements) or irrational (persistently holding onto a notion and regarding it as objectively 'true' and a part of 'reality').

  I do my best to clarify things by using the above strict definition of 'belief', which covers only notions that are held onto regardless of whether they genuinely reflect the reality of 'What Is'.

  Beliefs in this strict sense, including all those regarded as 'faiths' and 'convictions', are thus delusions, and mark out their carriers as just as mentally dysfunctional as many who get landed in psychiatric establishments because their particular strongly held beliefs are less socially acceptable and are thus regarded as 'mental illness', for whatever good that does anyone!

 

• buddha
  An actually reverential term used in certain Eastern traditions, unsurprisingly especially Buddhism, to denote an 'enlightened' person. However, the de facto application of the term is confused, and looks to be applied in practice only to (purportedly) fully 'self-realized' individuals* — this discrepancy presumably arising from the confusion in those traditions between enlightenment and self-actualization. It would be so much more helpful for all concerned if this 'buddha' term were discarded and people were each recognised for their own individual situations without recourse to sticking labels on them, reverential, pejorative or otherwise!

  * Yes, and their notion of 'full self-realization' is itself nonsensical and more to do with worship of individuals who've in some way found favour with the Buddhist (or other tradition) Establishment or at least its leading figures (it's much the same as the absurdity of the Roman Catholic Church labelling particular individuals as 'saints'). How do they know that a person is 'fully realized'? — Neither they nor anyone else can know such a thing! The garbage, of course, jumps in to fill the gap and give them 'story' to lead them way off course.

  For the record, to achieve genuinely full self-actualization, if indeed that could really happen, would be a stupid and nonsensical thing to do, because one would then be so ungrounded as to leave one's current incarnation. That isn't what we incarnate for (i.e., even those relatively few of us who incarnate healthily as no-soul people to start with)! It appears that Buddhism and other traditions have no concept of an optimal degree of self-actualization, which would be quite advanced but not to the point of getting seriously ungrounded.

  Indeed, it's arguable that the self-actualization process taken beyond the optimal degree of self-actualization is no longer self-actualization but self attenuation or self dissolution! That's indeed seriously misguidedly regarded as desirable in some Eastern traditions such as Buddhism (one supposedly reaches a highly desirable state that they call 'no-self'), but that's way off-course in relation to what we actually incarnate for. (See also 'self'.)

  Use of the term 'buddha' generally helps cultivate a mindset in which both enlightenment and self-actualization are perceived as unattainable for ordinary mortals, and it encourages some degree of worshipping, including even worship of one's own guru, even though in some Buddhist traditions that worshipping may be subtle in nature.

  Considering that enlightenment and self-actualization are as natural as, say, puberty or blowing your nose, something is clearly wrong in those traditions having made them appear exotic / esoteric and relatively unattainable to most people, and to be something to regard as states of extreme virtue and achievement, to be revered by all — so, of course disempowering oneself through that reverence.

  That of course is just one of the many indications of the garbage being the source of Buddhism just as it's also the source of all the other religions and 'spiritual' traditions — thus keeping a high proportion of people who have any potentially active desire for self-actualization diverted into dead ends that lead them into [deeper] garbage captivity instead.

 

• cacoprotean network
  What I'm regarding as the likely primary aspect of the garbage — a postulated extremely troublesome and sinister network of human minds, operating through the astral non-reality. This network is uncannily reminiscent of a botnet of hacked computers. It covertly 'recruits' particularly people who are operating as prominent 'healers', spiritual teachers / leaders, gurus, 'lightworkers' and other psychics and mystics, or particularly strongly motivated / obsessional political figures.

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  Generally, members have no inkling that they're part of such a network (just as computer owners usually have no inkling that their computers are operating as part of a botnet), either not being aware of any specific manifestations, or getting apparent visitations or at least communications from (actually illusory) non-physical beings, which may present themselves as particular higher beings such as ascended masters or angels, or as organisations of higher beings or of extra-terrestrials such as the so-called Galactic Brotherhood of Light, the Council of Nine and the Crimson Circle of Masters.

  Its physical 'front' organisations, which actively but covertly inveigle members into the network, include the Church of Scientology, various baptism and 'miracle' healing Christian sects, various healing system organisations such as Vortex Healing, and a whole plethora of esoteric, secret, metaphysical, mystical and paganistic organisations that use some sort of active initiation ritual or attunements / 'transmissions'.

  Also, systems / methodologies of healing / life improvement involving subjecting oneself to regular cold stress, such as with cold showers or ice-water baths, particularly when associated with breathing practices involving hyper- or hypo-ventilation, are also a means of covertly incorporating people into the network, or at least into what appears to be an evolutionary fork of it that specializes in connecting people to a particular primary archetype to entrap them. The Wim Hof methods are an example of this.

  By hijacking a part of the consciousness of each of its unwitting 'members', the network is able to pool a lot of human 'brain power' in order to be more effective in interfering with people in ways that cause them to behave in ways that further the survival of the garbage.

  The presence and pervasiveness of this network add considerable weight to my warnings to people about involving themselves in any way with 'healers', 'lightworkers', psychics, mystics, shamans, spiritual teachers and gurus, and so on, and the need for one to become independent of supposed assistance from outside oneself, and fully operational as one's own 'healer' and 'guru' (not that the notion of a guru is actually helpful at all!).

  This understanding of the situation is NOT simply a cranky paranoid theory that I've got attached to, but a strongly evidence-based working hypothesis (not statement of categorical fact), based in particular upon my own retrospective detective work upon a mass of observations during my period of massive disruption and actual destruction attempts from the garbage — and particularly the very strange behaviour of GH, the 'lightworker' who supplied the sacred geometry wands that were very strongly implicated in opening me up to those horrendous shenanigans.

  For more information, please see

  My 'astral beings' — Now the scary bit: what I was really dealing with.

 

• chakra
  Please see energy system.

 

• channelling
  Any act of gaining information, guidance or any other messages from supposed 'external' non-physical sources.

  I found out the hard way the true nature of channelling, which is highly problematical for all involved, even when apparently 'wise' and loving messages are coming through. It appears that the garbage (and now just people's internal pattern-driven emulations of it) is the key element in the channelling process, so that ALL channelled 'information' and messages, however 'loving', 'wise' or otherwise beneficial they appear superficially, come with an agenda to mislead in highly insidious and at least eventually troublesome ways.

  For more information, including an explanation of how it is, that some channelled messages can superficially appear to be so 'wise' and loving despite their being brought to us by the garbage, please see
  Channelling and clairvoyance problems — The safe alternative.

 

• clairvoyant / clairvoyance
  In the strict sense, clairvoyance is 'clear seeing' and so is a visual psychic perception — that is, 'seeing' things that are either non-physical or are physical but are physically hidden from the clairvoyant person. However, the term is generally much more loosely used to intimate a wide range of psychic perceptions — including clairaudience (psychic 'hearing') and clairsentience (psychic 'feeling'), and the gaining of intuitions that appear to be much more significant than 'ordinary' intuitions.

  Like all psychic perceptions and indeed channelling, clairvoyance isn't at all what its practitioners believe it to be. Indeed, 'clairvoyance' is a gloriously bizarre misnomer, because the only thing that's 'seen' is a decoy shown to the 'seer' in order to keep attention firmly diverted away from what's actually there. So, 'clear seeing' is one thing that clairvoyance most definitely is not!

  To the best of my understanding nowadays, all psychic perceptions are NOT direct perceptions (seeing, hearing, etc.) of what's actually there, but are instead simply perceptions of what the garbage is showing the particular people, with a very definite agenda to mislead and cause problems — never mind how seemingly useful some clairvoyant perceptions may appear to be in the short term.

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  As to how it is, that some clairvoyant 'readings' may seem to be very positive and supportive, the answer is just the same as for channelling.

  I recount how the garbage sought to lead me seriously astray via a whole sequence of different clairvoyants — broadly the same fictional scenario coming to me through all those different people — in
  My own self-actualization process or 'path' — Part 1.

 

• clarity
  The ability to see things as they are, unobscured and undistorted by preconceived notions and beliefs and illusory realities that one may be carrying.

  This is thus to be clearly distinguished from common notions of a state of 'clarity', which are more concerned with a peaceful or euphoric feeling or visual impression that one believes to be 'clarity'. That's actually not clarity at all, but more in the nature of self-deception — an illusory reality in fact. The garbage has readily cultivated that sort of misunderstanding of what real clarity is, in order to side-track people away from gaining actual clarity, and indeed it attacks some people with feelings and other impressions that they're 'nudged' into believing represent a state of clarity.

 

• Clarity-Sphere (now deprecated)

  

  A user-controlled 'energy' device developed by me — Philip Goddard — consisting of a polished sphere of a suitable stone, upon which a beneficial and self-actualization facilitating programming in subtle 'energy' has notionally been imparted. I developed the Clarity-Sphere in order to move on from the various limitations of the Energy-Egg 'family' of devices.

  Please note that in September 2018 I declared the Clarity-Sphere system redundant, because over time I'd developed equivalent methods / procedures, and a whole modus operandi, that work more effectively without use of any external aid. The Clarity-Sphere information will remain on this site as relevant educational historical information, but the device and indeed use of all external aids is now regarded as 'legacy' and thus 'deprecated'.

  I caution people not to use Clarity-Spheres or indeed any other external aid once they are using my current post-Clarity-Sphere methodology, because continuing use of such devices limits the effectiveness of the newer, enhanced methods. Don't let it be said that I didn't warn everyone about that!

  For more about the Clarity-Sphere, please see
  The Clarity-Sphere — For Advanced Healing and Self-Actualization
  and, for more about why the Clarity-Sphere no longer figures in my methodology, please see
  Philip Goddard's self-actualization methodology — Introduction.

 

• clear-mindedness / mental clarity / clarity
  The ability to see things as they are, without the obscuration and distortion caused by preconceived notions and beliefs and illusory realities, and in addition to see everything in its proper context — as a part of a greater whole — and always consider the likely causes and consequences of what one sees and of actions that one might take.

  Also, clear-mindedness involves the ability to routinely observe and be holding up to scrutiny one's own thinking process itself, so that one looks out for factors and influences that may be interfering with one's thinking and gaining of understanding of what one observes, and seeks to rectify or work around those difficulties.

  Clear-mindedness is thus both very deeply aware and very (flexibly) focused and practical — i.e., it's a very grounded state. The most helpful way I know of cultivating clear-mindedness is through the fullest and most comprehensive ongoing application of the Alexander Technique in one's everyday life. Cultivating it is an essential component of a genuine self-actualization process, and a good degree of it is well-nigh essential for one to become enlightened — at least, in any way that's actually helpful.

  A good synonym of clear-mindedness is proactive mindfulness.

  Clear-mindedness equates only partially with what, in Buddhism and nowadays even in Western medical institutions, is commonly referred to as mindfulness. Their 'mindfulness' is meditation-based, and leads its practitioners into insidious illusory realities, unawareness of their major issues ('putting the lid on them'), and brain damage that gives rise to a passive, laissez-faire approach to life in lieu of recognising and living-out their respective underlying life purpose / life tasks, and for good measure it also causes a general weakening of the grounding of their awareness.

 

• co-counselling
  As distinct from the normal one-way professional sort of counselling, co-counselling — sometimes described as 'peer co-counselling' to emphasize its true nature — is carried out by a pair of people who, at least theoretically, operate on equal terms. In a co-counselling session the time is split in half, one person being 'client' for half the time, and then the roles are switched.

  As to what the person in the 'counsellor' role does, that depends on the discipline within which the co-counselling is being used. In the case of Re-evaluation Counselling, which has been my only involvement with co-counselling, the 'counsellor' is supposed to have a very subtle and flexible role, of listening in a positive and encouraging way, with aware and thoughtful attention, and in specific situations actually being directive in a particular way that's specific to Re-evaluation Counselling — but NOT giving advice or judgemental comments.

  A particularly helpful use of co-counselling would be in a mutual exchange of inquiry 'facilitation' using The Work — and that could at least theoretically clear many emotional issues much more quickly than Re-evaluation Counselling, and be much more grounding and less 'accident prone'.

  For many purposes really well conducted co-counselling with a suitable structural framework and between really appropriate people can be much more genuinely helpful and self-empowering than being a client in one-way counselling, where almost always various rigidities of the counsellor, usually much reinforced through any professional training, would add to the inherent disempowering effect on the client of a one-way session.

  On the other hand, as I experienced myself, co-counselling has inherent problems because of the normal great difficulty of finding a co-counselling partner who is really appropriate for you and who wouldn't even endanger you because of particular problems they're carrying, perhaps totally unawarely.

  Please follow up what I have to say about Re-evaluation Counselling for more about that. However, such issues would be much less serious in the case of The Work, because one doesn't go making oneself emotionally vulnerable and indeed poorly grounded in the way that tends to happen in Re-evaluation Counselling, and the session is much more clearly and rigorously structured.

 

• combo entity
  An elemental that has been combined functionally with a soul fragment. This phenomenon is a postulation of mine, supported by my own inner inquiry, which would help explain certain observations, but I don't claim the existence of 'combo entities' as necessarily being objective fact.

  According to my understanding, a combo entity — NOT an actual conscious being of any description — is implicated when a person seems to have a particularly troublesome 'spirit' attached to them and in many cases speaking to them but in any case giving them a very rough time with physical interference in their body movements and functions, often causing serious health problems and often even an early death. It is actually functioning as a particularly virulent weapon of the garbage, so is operated by the latter via connections in the victim's non-physical aspects.

  In July 2024, on a hike I encountered an individual carrying an apparent combo entity in which the elemental was a ghost. This was apparently not maliciously programmed, so its harmfulness would have been just the sum total of having the soul fragment and the various memories and emotional feelings stored in the ghost. I describe that encounter in the page linked to below.

  For more about these, please see
  The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks.

 

• compassion
  Widely seen as a 'good', positive or 'virtuous' emotion or attribute of a person, this is actually a quite harmful distortion of the real intrinsic attribute (not an emotion) that people are unawarely seeking to recognise, cultivate or get in touch with, which is empathy. 'Compassion' is particularly promoted / praised in many religious / spiritual traditions — and that's hardly surprising, seeing that through those traditions the garbage has been pointing people all the time into distorted versions of the intrinsic positive aspects of themselves and their life experience in order to divert them away from genuine self-actualization.

  Compassion is effectively a glob of a cocktail of various painful emotions, screwed together into a little ball that displays to you a tiny bit of your intrinsic empathy through the distorting lens of all those painful emotions. It incorporates pity, which is also a similarly contrived distortion of one's empathy. There is always a moralistic undercurrent in compassion and pity — which means an element of personal judgement and personal power / status issue.

  That sense of nobility about compassion / pity is really that moralistic aspect, which is making one assume an inner sense of superiority ("I'm okay but he's not okay, the poor thing", sort-of thing!) — even though not necessarily at a level where you would recognise it consciously as such.

  Empathy is simply an aspect of that intrinsic attribute of every human-type consciousness that I call love. With empathy, you have awareness of how a person is likely to be feeling or experiencing life, based on clear observation and aware deductions, and it enables you to readily picture the person's feelings (as though remembering the feelings rather than feeling them directly).

  However, if you go further and do actually feel those feelings yourself, that is something untoward that's got superimposed upon your empathy — and normally that would be a 'relic' emulation of the garbage attacking you with the respective emotions in order to distort the experience and divert you away from opening up your own true nature.

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.
 

• consciousness / awareness
  Actually completely indefinable! We all have a subjective impression that we know what consciousness is, yet the more one probes to establish what it is, i.e., in any meaningfully describable way, the more elusive it appears to be. When a person becomes enlightened, (s)he perceives directly why we have this conundrum, for the underlying nature of consciousness — what you could call 'naked awareness' — is actually non-dualistic, and thus transcends all concepts.

  For this reason it's impossible to describe or define consciousness, and thus the latter is intrinsically unable to accurately define or describe itself; it can describe only what it experiences (i.e., dualistic, conceptually based, phenomena).

  An enlightened person perceives directly that his true identity isn't any 'thing' that can be properly described, and that neither is his identity his thoughts and feelings, but instead it's naked, non-dualistic awareness itself. Although this is strictly impossible to describe, I attempt to make it sort-of comprehensible to people by describing it figuratively as the meta-space within which all dualistic phenomena — i.e., everything that we consciously experience, including the whole Universe — arises.

  It appears that each of us (as consciousness) is a gradation between the most dualistic experience (physical 'reality') and our underlying non-duality. Many people and traditions / disciplines believe that there are various discrete and at least potentially describable levels of consciousness, but, as far as I've been able to establish so far, that's all distorted information that has come from the garbage for the purpose of making it much more difficult for people to become enlightened and genuinely, comprehensively, self-actualized.

  Whatever the real situation (which actually nobody could ever know), all my indications so far are that it's much more helpful for our self-actualization process for us to use the working assumption that each of us is fundamentally (i.e., apart from any malfunctions) a smooth continuum between fully dualistic, 'conscious' awareness and the apparently fully non-dualistic, apparently non-conceptual awareness of fundamental consciousness itself.

  A related meaning for 'awareness'
  I often use the term 'awareness' more or less synonymously with 'consciousness', but I also use it with another meaning: the extent or degree to which there's any sort of perceptual recognition of a broader / 'deeper' aspect of reality than just the physical aspect — which also goes hand in hand with the degree to which one has a more balanced, broader view of every detail of the life experience, such as being aware of likely consequences of one's actions and being flexible and open to 'unexpected outcomes' and able to respond to those constructively.

  A harmful error in use of the term 'awareness'
  Where a person has noticeable psychic perceptions, which actually means perceptual openness to the astral non-reality, that person is generally regarded as being particularly aware. I myself had been stuck in that error for a long time, but (in 2013) came to see the error of that.

  The point is, real awareness is of what's 'real', i.e., not illusory in the sense that I generally mean on this site. So, if you have a lot of astral perceptions and give them any sort of credence or importance, that isn't genuine awareness at all, but rather, a harmful smokescreen that obstructs your deeper awareness, for you preoccupy yourself with what's illusory instead of what's 'real' — i.e., 'What Is'. That's a self-deceiving unawareness!

  It's no good going apparent half-measure and talking of 'astral awareness', because that implies that what you perceive in the astral non-reality is still 'real' in some way, which it's not, at least in any useful or helpful way. So, we need to let go altogether of the term 'awareness' relating to the astral non-reality and any sort of psychic perceptions. Those all represent a serious problem for the person's genuine awareness.

  A genuinely aware perception of the astral non-reality and any of its contents that may come to your notice would be a grounded one, in which you recognise the perceptions and apparitions, and the whole astral pantomime, for what they are — a seething mass of confusions and obfuscations that are simply froth or flatus (fart gas), and of no genuine significance or use to us, and there to divert us from ever understanding what's really going on.

  So, on that basis it's possible to see that the 'lightworkers' and gurus / teachers who are regarded as having awesome awareness in perceiving all those angels and other supposed higher beings, and passing on to others the impressive-seeming 'teachings' that they've picked up from that menagerie, are actually monumentally unaware, for they're simply hooked on all manner of illusions that the garbage is feeding them from the astral non-reality, and lack the awareness to recognise what's really going on.

  A deeply aware person, therefore, would be aware of the astral non-reality and (in some degree) of its contents, but would remain distanced from all that — much in the same way that such a person would be aware of many harmful social conventions, such as the drinking of alcohol, but wouldn't therefore be involving himself in such crass behaviours.

  For further explanation of our true nature as consciousness itself rather than anything physical, please see
  On the nature of reality and truth — Too simple to believe! :-).

• core point / core star / assemblage point
  A notional and actually fictional 'energy' structure, postulated to be in some position deep in one's middle, which is supposed to be the point of connection between one's 'energy system' or 'aura' and 'the Ultimate', whatever one might call that. This is as nonsensical as putting a little icon somewhere on a map of the Universe to represent the 'dimension' of time on it!

  I took the core point concept on from the core star described in Barbara Brennan's classic books on spiritual healing, and merged it with the apparently equivalent concept of the assemblage point that comes from certain other individuals and traditions.

  More recently I came to throw out the core point concept, because the deepest aspect of each one of us, which, as far as we can tell, is 'the Ultimate' (i.e.,fundamental consciousness) is in no way spatially located, and it's an absurdity to imagine that it connects with us through any definable structure at all. Some people with psychic or supposed 'higher' perceptions (still just another 'flavour' of psychic or astral perception), believe that they actually see people's core star, but that's no different from their 'seeing' chakras and other aura structures.

  What they see is just what the garbage is showing them in order to mislead. In particular, the garbage has a strong vested interest in getting people to interpret 'the Ultimate' as being something conceptually definable and separate from themselves and thus something that therefore they're 'connected' to. That's a complete fiction.

 

• 'dark force', 'forces of darkness'
  Unhelpful but widely used terms (especially the latter) that for many years I'd mistakenly equated with what I nowadays, for a very important reason, call and encourage others to call the garbage.

  There's actually a fundamental and crucial difference between 'forces of darkness' and the garbage. The supposed 'dark force' / 'forces of darkness' is just a very broad category of the huge range of illusory manifestations that the underlying troublesome unseen influence — the garbage — causes a person's awareness to create. That range includes all manifestations of supposed 'divinity', and indeed all non-physical beings or 'presences' or 'realities', whether supposedly higher, lower or fair-to-middling — ALL of them illusory!

  This term, wherever used on this site, is a metaphysical-cum-psychological reference, and is NOTHING to do with any 'dark force' or 'dark matter' or 'dark universe' (or 'dark' anything) that is postulated, such as by cosmologists, with regard to the structure or functioning of our physical Universe. Its only connection with any '(dark) force' in the Star Wars series is that the latter has adapted the notion of the metaphysical 'forces of darkness' for a whole pile of fiction, upon whose quality I'll not comment!

 

• death
  The ending of a lifetime. Contrary to widespread belief, if one dies properly one does NOT 'pass on' (i.e., to somewhere such as 'the Light' or 'heaven' or 'hell' or a 'spirit world'), but life experience simply ceases and one peacefully reverts to fundamental consciousness.

  However, for the vast majority of people, an enormous range of experiences are possible on dying (some pleasant or indeed subjectively 'sublime', some not so, and some possibly horrendously awful). This is because these people have soul programming or at least particular beliefs / illusory realities gained during the current lifetime, which cause them to experience and be trapped by illusory realities that manifest as astral realms as they lose their connection with the physical 'reality'.

  ALL those experiences, even if they seem to be 'heavenly', are seriously problematical, because they're in various ways adding to the person's soul programming for his/her then programmed and inevitable soul-reincarnation as unwitting complete captives of the garbage.

  This issue should be steadily dissipating now, following apparent closure of the astral and dissolution of the garbage in early 2022. See Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

  For information about how to maximize your chance of dying properly and thus becoming free of the garbage, please see
  How to Die Peacefully and with Dignity.

 

• deeper aspects / deepest aspects (of a person)
  A term of convenience that I use, to signify the most 'invisible' and non-dual aspects of a person, including the 'deepest', most non-dual level of all — fundamental consciousness. It's actually a misleading term in one important respect, in that all non-physical aspects of a person, being non-physical, are not physically located and thus can't literally be higher or lower or deeper than anything else. So here I'm using the word 'deep' figuratively, to signify being most removed from the 'visibility' of the dualistic experience of physical existence.

  I often prefer to use this term rather than, say, 'fundamental consciousness', when I could be referring to a person's very deepest aspect of consciousness, because we simply don't know what goes on in the deeper aspects of consciousness, and it would most likely be quite inaccurate to ascribe all sorts of happenings to fundamental consciousness itself — the absolute base layer of all consciousness and all of 'reality'.

  So, in this case generally I prefer to be actually more accurate by not specifying the very deepest aspect, but instead, to include the latter in something less precisely defined.

 

• deeper consciousness
  A term of convenience that I'm using sometimes where previously I'd have referred to fundamental consciousness. It is deliberately intended to be somewhat less precise in its meaning, but actually more accurate. Fundamental consciousness is postulated as the very deepest level of consciousness / awareness, and is assumed to be l00% non-dual — though nobody could actually know whether or not even that percentage is correct.

  So, that's the very end of the continuum from full duality (the 'ordinary mind') to full non-duality. But if we keep talking of 'fundamental consciousness' with regard to consciousness actually intending things and achieving things, that's probably nonsensical, because very likely recognisable intent, thinking and executive abilities require at least some degree of duality.

  Hence I talk of a person's deeper (or deepest) aspects with regard to the individual, but deeper consciousness with regard to the universal aspect of consciousness — in both cases meaning a certain range at the non-dual end of the continuum, including a certain degree of duality and thus ability to work things out.

  However, in order for a wide range of types of issue to be understood sufficiently for deeper consciousness to work out and implement respective solutions, it needs some very clear and informative input from its most dualistic aspects — that is, its incarnations. This, therefore, shows how mind-bogglingly off-the-rails are the religious notions of there being any sort of creator or father-figure 'God' who you can pray to for anything you want! No wonder all manner of prayers to respective deities have still, after aeons, not in the slightest resolved or ameliorated the pretty desperate issue of human irrationality and the problems / horrors emanating from 'the astral'!

  To be able to provide such input in any useful manner requires deep awareness, personal authenticity, and mental clarity — the ability to see and describe the absolute essentials of an issue, completely devoid of belief or 'story'. An example of that in action is my own Project 'Fix the Human Condition'.

 

• deep level perceptions

  On the face of it, references to the garbage and related phenomena here could be removed from here now, as it was apparently dissolved and the astral non-reality closed to all human minds, in early 2022. However, for the time being, for the vast majority of people left-over patterns of brain function are continuing the subjective experience of the garbage interferences. Please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

  These non-physical perceptions come directly from one's own deepest aspects, and so, they've NOT come through the astral non-reality, and thus the garbage isn't involved in them, and they always convey useful and indeed important information.

  These perceptions, therefore, are to be clearly distinguished from channelling / dowsing and clairvoyance and indeed psychic perceptions in general, and also from what various people call 'higher' perceptions, which are, in all cases that I'm aware of (including the Barbara Brennan healing system's 'higher sensory perception' or HSP), just more psychic perceptions with a dose of self-deception added (i.e., so they believe they're clear of the problems involved in 'psychic' perceptions, while actually being thoroughly embroiled with them!).

  Deep level perceptions are very subtle and generally unspectacular, lacking the 'sexy' dramatic quality of so many psychic perceptions, but they're nonetheless what people really need to be opening up during the course of a genuine comprehensive self-actualization process, while training themselves generally to keep as closed as possible to psychic (astral) perceptions and to ignore such perceptions that do intrude upon them.

  Even deep level 'perceptions', however, are really not direct seeing of what's actually there, but are simply what one's own deepest aspects show or indicate to one. Such indications are, as I say, very subtle, and they're broadly of a generalized nature, lacking in specifics, but can be extremely valuable in indicating things, people and situations that are or aren't in one's best interests to be involved with.

  One particular type of deep level perception that I have is a subtle impression of various people, which any 'healer' or psychic would misinterpret as 'seeing the aura' or the person's 'energy'. I get the impression of a whitish or silvery radiance around some people, while there are others around whom I sense a dark stickiness, while there are the odd individuals around whom I sense a dirty greyness that feels particularly repellent to me.

  While people's psychic perceptions can include crude facsimiles of such deep level perceptions, and then mean whatever the garbage chooses them to mean for the particular person in the particular situation, in my case the respective radiance or 'yuck' impressions relating to people have approximately the following significances (which could be different for somebody else, so this is just an example and not a statement of what such impressions mean for anyone who has them):

  • Whitish radiance: an issue to do with weak grounding. Although that would be indicating a problem, paradoxically, from my own perspective it's often part of a very positive indication about a person — that (s)he is very open and aware, having little or sometimes no soul programming*.

    * It needs emphasizing here that there are many other people who would be covered by that description, around whom I don't get the impression of any sort of whitish radiance. They're recognisable, however, by the 'spark of life' radiance (see further below) that I observe in their countenance.

    However, this same impression has been given to me regarding certain crystals and wands, and there the actual point of my getting those impressions was as a warning that those items were particularly ungrounding for me, and thus needed to be got rid of quickly.

    Indeed, even with people, that whitish radiance is actually primarily a warning for me, because such people would have an ungrounding effect on me if I involved myself with them, notwithstanding a fair proportion of those people otherwise being ones who I'd want to associate with.

  • Dark stickiness around the person: the person has one or more attached soul fragments, often also with one or more really harmful elementals, and thus isn't a healthy person for me to be involved with.

  • Dirty grey around the person: a very serious problem with an attached powerful and controlling human consciousness — a partial walk-in or 'spirit attachment', and, at least partly because of that, the person is harmful if not downright dangerous, with a strongly controlling and intrusive disposition, and is thus for keeping well clear of!

  • The 'spark of life' radiance: not describable in physical terms like the above three, for it's an overall impression of the person rather than an impression of anything around him/her. It's associated with a particular quality of the person's gaze, and indicates that the person has at least a quite deep level of awareness, and a high degree of flexibility and openness of outlook and no more than a small amount of soul programming.

    This impression isn't only visual. There's also a very subtle overall body sensation (not describable) that I generally find associated with that 'radiance'. The 'spark of life' radiance isn't in itself a warning for me — rather the converse. It's really a marked lack of that impression that signals a warning to me (i.e., of ordinary, dull, unaware individuals, who are not worth my engaging with in any 'deep' or time-consuming way). If I get that impression strongly, generally it indicates that the person is no-soul.

  Another deep level perception that I use is the various subtle impressions that are used for observing one's 'internal' Helpfulness Testing responses. The one that I use most nowadays is what I call 'rabbit ears', in which a 'strengthening response' is represented by the tips of the ears seeming to extend up into (or dissolve into) the sky, while a 'weakening' response is indicated by the tips of the ears feeling limited, constrained and even slightly turned down. It's a very subtle pair of sensations, and even sufficiently aware and 'sensitive' people would generally need some practice to be able to use these in their Helpfulness Testing.

  Most of my deep level perceptions so far, however, have been more subtle and difficult to describe than the above.

  There's a catch, however (for anyone), in that the garbage attempts to mimic those deep level perceptions. Those garbage interferences are inevitably more crude and attention-grabbing, so generally when a person imagines that they're having deep level perceptions, for a good bit of the time they'd be actually noticing and responding to the garbage-sourced amplified and distorted parodies of their genuine deep level perceptions, and not noticing at all the much more subtle and more generalized impressions that are coming direct from their own deepest aspects.

  So, any reasonably deeply aware people would be having many deep level perceptions, but a good proportion of those would be obscured by what you could call 'psychic' equivalents that the garbage has superimposed upon them.

  Thus it's people who are on an active genuine self-actualization process, including the clearing out of their garbage interferences, who are most able to access and begin properly to use their deep level perceptions without getting so readily led astray by the garbage trying to get in on the act. Helpfulness Testing needs to be part of the process, because then, carefully using inner inquiry by means of Helpfulness Testing, it's possible to find out the significance for you of particular deep-level sourced impressions.

  It was thus that I myself established the meaning for me of the above-enumerated subtle impressions that I get of certain people. Before I had Helpfulness Testing, and was channelling instead (and so causing immense problems for myself), the story that I got about the whitish radiance I 'saw' around some people was that those people were incarnated angels — and thus of course were allegedly very good people for me to be involved with.

 

• delusion
  An illusion that's held as a belief. In other words, it's an illusion that the person is unwilling to recognise as being anything other than reality, even in the face of clear contradicting evidence. In practice, the term is generally used pejoratively — in the nature of You're in delusion and I'm not, which is effectively the same sort of notion as My God is better than your God!.

  Psychiatric workers are typically grotesquely sloppy in their use of this term, for they apply it indiscriminately to people who are having unorthodox perceptions and 'insights', regardless of whether those are genuine delusions or simply the particular individuals having information to which the respective psychiatric workers aren't themselves party, or which contradicts their own particular belief system.

  A particular irony about this is that the psychiatric workers themselves are all, at least to a considerable extent, in serious delusion, in that their whole modus operandi is based upon the materialist-reductionist belief system.

  For this reason they all have an ongoing delusion in which there's nothing to reality apart from what they identify as 'physical' — and the related delusion, that the problems their 'patients' have can be resolved by means of attempts at symptom suppression by means of drugs and ECT rather than actually identifying and addressing any fundamental underlying cause (which of course is non-physical, so that any mention of it is taken as a sign of 'delusion' and thus supposed mental illness).

  Actually, to at least some extent every person on the planet is in delusion, for every held belief and unrecognised illusory reality, never mind how 'normal' and socially accepted it may be, is effectively a delusion. For this very reason the term actually lacks really useful meaning and is best not used at all.

 

• demonic / divine
  Nonsensical terms used in various religions to denote what the particular religions or individuals consider to be 'of the devil' or 'of God / angels', or other descriptions meaning the same things. To many a devout Christian, all my work presented on this site is basically 'demonic', because it cuts straight through their religious belief system and bizarrely limited outlook. Thoroughgoing genuine common sense is being made out to be 'demonic' — of the devil! That makes great sense, right?

  So, why do I lump 'demonic' and 'divine' together here and describe them as nonsensical? — Because they're just labels of judgement and don't at all reflect the true nature of reality or 'What Is'.

  Indeed, the whole polarities of good / bad [/evil] and divine / demonic have been sourced from the garbage, as part of its strategy for keeping people ignorant of its true nature (direct / indirect source of all our major dysfunctions that aren't physically sourced, such as brain damage) and getting them to be always looking outside themselves for 'the Ultimate' instead of within themselves, where they can progressively open to their own deepest aspect, which is 'the Ultimate' as far as anyone can tell.

  It's a curious little paradox, that the garbage could so easily (but hardly well-advisedly) be superficially equated with 'the devil', 'Satan' and so forth, yet it wasn't really that at all, but was the underlying troublesome influence that caused one's mindspace to create the illusions of both supposed demonic and divine realities and beings, including 'God'.

  Doesn't that then mean that there is a non-physical polarity — between us (our true nature) and the garbage?

  — It may look sort-of like that, but to look at it that way would lead one into problems, because our true nature on the one hand and the garbage on the other are not at all the extremes of a polarity. Rather, the garbage was simply a distorted and strongly dysfunctional part of human consciousness at a universal level.

  It doesn't make all that much sense, and would be confusingly unhelpful, to think in terms of a polarity between yourself and a dysfunctional part of yourself. Similarly, the garbage was a dysfunctional aspect of consciousness universally, so it was just an issue that needs to be fixed, and nothing to do with an imagined polarity. Simple as that.

• developmental trajectory / life trajectory
  A person's projected / extrapolated life plan, in the form of a timeline-based probabilistic matrix (a matrix of probabilities, sort-of — not quite the same thing), which one's deeper aspects assess in order to assist one in making the most positive and life-affirming choices in the current lifetime.

  When one carries out inner inquiry, one needs to be aware of the probabilistic nature of one's life course, because it's so confoundedly easy to be thinking in terms of definite predictions, whereas all inner inquiry indications are probability-based. Many times have I myself come unstuck over that!

  This is light-years away from the hideous manipulative parody of the developmental trajectory that the garbage had been presenting to people as 'destiny' through various means such as channelling, clairvoyance and astrology.

 

• dowsing
  Methods of gaining information from non-physical sources by means of some 'yes/no' response, such as by use of a pendulum or dowsing / divining rods. It's thus the general means of channelling where the person can't actually 'hear' or 'see' messages directly. Theoretically, this could gain actually highly beneficial information from one's own deepest aspects.

  In practice, however, that could happen only for a person who is very advanced in their self-actualization process (well beyond mere enlightenment!), or, in some cases other individuals who've learnt a particularly rigorous variant of dowsing that I call Helpfulness Testing, which, if performed with due rigour and vigilance, can to a fair extent bypass the normal hijacking by the garbage, which latter, as with all channelling, has been the effective operating party in all standard dowsing.

  However, regarding the garbage, please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

• dualistic / non-dualistic / nondual
  If you can distinguish between 'this' and 'that', and 'me' and 'you' or 'not me', or, more generally, between one thing and another, then you're having dualistic experience. To the vast majority of people that would be a more or less meaningless statement, because they remain unaware that not all experience is dualistic, and thus dualistic experience is the only aspect of reality that they know.

  The more deeply aware a person is, the more that person is also experiencing non-duality, in which there are no recognisable concepts because all concepts that we could recognise are dualistic, depending upon one thing being different, and at least notionally separate, from another. However, the vast majority of even those more aware people don't actually recognise this non-duality for what it is, and thus have little or no idea of its significance — though in some cases they'd have taken on some 'spiritual' belief relating to it.

  An enlightened person perceives directly that his/her true identity is within non-duality and thus can't be meaningfully defined or described. That deepest, apparently completely non-dual aspect of consciousness / reality is what I call fundamental consciousness. It is widely known as 'the Universal Consciousness' — though various traditions don't fully understand its non-dual nature and ascribe to it conceptual thinking and communication abilities (more like a version of 'God'), which actually it doesn't have.

  2022 addition

  All the above is how for practical purposes it's most helpful to view non-duality, but I've come to the conclusion that it's only a partial picture.

  The point is, how can genuinely non-dual consciousness really play any part in our lives if it really is non-conceptual?

  The answer appears to be (though we have no means to verify it), that what we perceive as non-duality is actually conceptual and thus dualistic after all, but in some different manner that renders its contents invisible to us. Basically, what we perceive as dualistic and conceptual is experienced and worked with at an individual, subjective, level. The duality that is invisible to us is that whose contents relate to universal concepts and universally-applied actions.

 

• earthbound spirit
  Generally regarded as the consciousness or supposed 'soul' of a person who's died, which for some reason has been unable to 'pass on' and remains stuck in or close to the physical 'dimension'. However, my own indications through observation and inner inquiry point to a very different picture.

  According to my own indications, there appears to be no such thing as an earthbound spirit at all, in the sense of an actual consciousness. Instead, what people are giving that label to are, on the one hand, elementals (manifesting as ghosts or some kinds of supposed 'spirit attachment'), and on the other hand 'soul fragments', which are small partially separated-off portions of the non-physical aspects of people who are still alive.

  In cases where one apparently gets a 'departed' person actually speaking or appearing to one, according to my understanding this would be simply illusory manifestations created in one's mindspace by the garbage, and not any sort of actual conscious being at all. It would be very unhelpful indeed to regard such illusory manifestations as real 'earthbound spirits' as the garbage had been trying to get us doing.

  Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…

 

• 'Earth energies'
  Much believed in by New-Age and paganistically inclined people, 'Earth energies', which include such planetary manifestations as ley lines, energy lines and 'power points', are, to the best of my understanding, actually ILLUSORY, and don't exist in 'the real world' of 'What Is'. However, in practice the situation is more complex than just that, and with a decidedly sinister twist.

  The complicating factor is particular illusory realities that the garbage has cultivated, at least to some extent, in the mindspace of the majority of people.

  Those illusory realities are ones in which 'Earth energies' and all their manifestations do exist. Unfortunately those (yes, illusory) 'Earth energies' can be harnessed for the purpose of wielding certain 'special powers', including putting massive and potentially lethal psychic attacks on designated target people. However, people who aren't carrying any illusory realities in which 'Earth energies' exist would be immune to such attacks or indeed other attempted interferences using 'Earth energies'.

  Generally it would be only no-soul people who are free from such illusory realities, and even some of them may have picked up such illusory realities at a superficial level and thus be at some risk if a major 'Earth energy' attack be directed at them.

  However, people with a lot of soul programming, which shuts down their awareness, generally have their 'Earth energies'-containing illusory realities 'buried' by their general mass of soul programming, so they'd generally be minimally affected if such an attack were turned on them. In practice, the latter sort of people are virtually never targeted in the first place, because they're recognised as not being significantly vulnerable to that sort of thing.

  I mention the above issue with 'Earth energies' because this is something not widely known about, except among various 'dark' practitioners (I include among them, sadly, many who regard themselves as 'lightworkers'). For their own safety, people need to be aware of the need to let go of all belief in 'Earth energies' and their manifestations such as ley lines, and indeed to clear out the underlying illusory realities hidden in their mindspace.

  A fair number of people (usually ones who regard themselves as 'lightworkers') actually believe that those energy lines are a vital part of the Earth system, and take part in some sort of plan, guided 'from above' (i.e., from illusory non-physical beings), to maintain, repair and at times restructure the supposed energy line system, purportedly for the purpose of assisting Humanity towards either 'full consciousness' or 'ascension'.

  These people are in really deep trouble because of the extent of their involvement in that illusory reality and indeed with the garbage in general. Their 'guidance' is all from the garbage, which would be bound in time to become their almost complete controllers. Such people would most likely be unwitting members of the postulated cacoprotean network.

  Caution! If anyone seeks to get you connecting yourself to 'Earth energies', for example, allegedly to improve your grounding, you need to be aware that (a) it's a myth that your grounding can be improved at all by that means, and (b) it would be rendering you a 'sitting duck' target for potentially lethal psychic attack, and it's distinctly likely that the person concerned is setting you up specifically for such psychic attack — albeit not necessarily knowing the intentions underlying his/her 'guidance' to get you connected to 'Earth energies'.
  

  Unlike direct attacks from the garbage (using emotional trauma energy), attacks with 'Earth energies' can't be felt, so you wouldn't know it was happening — the harmful effects becoming apparent over the ensuing days / weeks.

  This potential for use in lethal psychic attacks may sound fanciful, but I have very strong evidence that at least one such attack was launched upon me myself during the years of my own serious garbage shenanigans.

  Although I myself am a no-soul person and thus by default I don't carry any significant illusory reality relating to 'Earth energies', I'd picked up a little superficial belief in those 'energies' during the years of my involvement with 'spiritual healing', which enabled the particular attack to go as far as causing a major attack of 'osteoarthritis' in my right knee — which latter I healed to effective completion within a year (by then I'd returned to full length hikes again!).

• ego
  This is a term that I generally avoid using because of the confusions surrounding its use, and I include it here only for clarification — particularly as people do rather like to throw that word at me pejoratively like mud pies, actually demonstrating that they have no real understanding of what they're going on about. He's got a super-big ego, so he's the lowest of the low and can safely be ignored, sort of thing!

  The ego is actually none other than what's usually called the 'self', except that it's widely used in a seriously unaware way with a more pejorative connotation, and indeed in various contexts it's used as a supposedly damningly pejorative expression, which is then not synonymous with 'self' at all, but instead means tending to posture to present oneself as 'above' or more important than other people.

  That usage is just a term of abuse, and it really tells one nothing useful, just adding to people's confusions about what that word is really supposed to mean. If a person is posturing in self-aggrandizing ways, or is generally behaving in controlling or other inconsiderate ways towards other people, then it's better that the actual situation be stated clearly and precisely, rather than throwing he's got a big ego mud pies at him!

  However, the normal notion of the 'self' actually refers to the illusory self — that is, 'the appearance / semblance of self'; what people believe or try to pretend they are, and not what they actually are. In other words the ego or normal-concept of 'self' is actually illusory. When we become genuinely enlightened, that illusion dissolves and we perceive directly our real self, as non-duality, which is nothing at all to do with the so-called 'ego'.

  See:
  Dissolving the ego — Why one could never achieve that aim

 

• elemental (noun)
  A complex of thought forms that, to varying extents, behaves like some sort of conscious or semi-conscious entity or being, although it actually has no consciousness of its own — so it's very like a quasi-autonomous computer program, constructed in 'thought energy'. According to my best understanding, this is usually if not always the true nature of any 'spirit attachment' that can communicate with the affected person and even move parts of his/her body (and appears to be more than just a straightforward illusory manifestation directly caused by the garbage), and is always the true nature of what people call ghosts.

  Please note that an elemental, because it's actually not a self-aware consciousness, can't incarnate. I make this point because quite regularly people come to this website using search queries to the effect of Am I an incarnated elemental?. The answer every time is a clear 'no', and that they'd been given misinformation due to the very nature of the means by which people obtain such 'information' (channelling, clairvoyance, 'guidance', 'voices' and so on).

• emotional button-pushing / restimulation
  The causing of stored and usually subjectively hidden emotional stress or indeed trauma to 'surface' so that it's felt or has some other noticeable effect on the person. The effect of this is that when an even non-stressful, non-threatening situation in some way reminds one sufficiently of a memory of an old stress or trauma experience that one is carrying, the emotional stress / trauma 'energy' of the old 'reminded of' experience comes to the surface, so that the person then 'relives' the feelings of the earlier stressful experience, even though those feelings are not at all appropriate to the current situation.

  The new experience is thus transformed into a stressful or even traumatic one and so registers in one's system and indeed memory as a new stress, even though in most cases not as big as the original.

  However, what actually happens is usually not so straightforward, because only in some cases (usually in the case of the smaller stored emotional stresses) does the person actually consciously feel the old feelings to any great degree. What happens instead is that the person goes into a reactive rigid behaviour pattern that enables him to avoid feeling those feelings — instead to get into a state of emotional numbness, which is really a quite major block on part of that person's awareness.

  We each carry some amount of stored emotional stress / trauma, whether or not we're aware of any of it, and so we're 'booby-trapped' each with a huge number of what I often call 'emotional button-pushing points' hidden in one's awareness, so that the various 'button-pushings' or restimulations that we get in everyday life result in our daily experience being at least to some extent coloured and distorted by all the 'button-pushings' and reminders of old stress or trauma experiences.

  We may not notice that happening for ourselves, but our resultant rigid patterns would be limiting our life experience and our capacity to enjoy it in a really positive and meaningful way.

  Even if your life has been relatively free of stress / trauma, you could still be carrying a lot of stored stress and trauma that doesn't belong to you — belonging instead to lost souls attached to you* — as has clearly been the case for me (which is how I initially came to recognise this phenomenon).

  * Alternatively, some or all of it could be affecting you through connections to particular primary archetypes.

  According to my own understanding, the 'button-pushings' would usually not have all that strong an effect, but for the way that the garbage was exploiting the temporary weakening of a little bit of one's non-physical aspects by each 'button-pushing', to enable it to launch an attack with stress / trauma 'energies' related to that particular 'button-pushing'. Indeed, the garbage actually was using a constant repetition of a particular 'button-pushing' as one of the two major ingredients of the mechanism of an attack — actually creating a feedback loop of emotional stress / trauma 'energy'.

• Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
  A relatively powerful and speedy method for clearing emotional issues, stresses and traumas, introduced by Gary Craig in 1993. The method consists basically of a combination of review of a special-format 'setup statement' embodying troublesome or 'negative' thoughts or impressions relating to the issue to be addressed, plus a 'positive' part that to at least some extent contradicts the distorted perceptions expressed in the first part — together with a system of tapping on various parts of the body during the course of that review.

  I saw that the standard EFT had a problem because its system of tapping points was based on a garbage-sourced illusory reality — the structured aura, and in particular the so-called meridians, which to my understanding are a harmful fiction.

  I developed a potentially much more efficient version or 'evolutionary fork' of the method in 2018, called Clarity-EFT, combining an enhanced setup statement with a more soundly and indeed rationally based tapping system — basically just the tapping version of my Feedback-Loop Zapper procedure.

  For more explanation, please see
  The Emotional Freedom Technique refocused (Clarity-EFT).

 

• end-gaining
  The normal but actually extremely dysfunctional mode of living one's life and carrying out activities, in which one attempts to achieve goals or reach targets, and views one's whole life experience as a matter of succeeding or failing in such attempts — with little or no attention to the means by which one makes those attempts, nor even to whether any specific goal or target is really where one genuinely needs to be pointing in the first place.

  Somebody who is end-gaining is operating largely on auto-pilot, not engaging his awareness, so that actually to a considerable extent he is simply not living — at least, in any worthwhile way as a true human. Such people are always harming themselves physically, because they aren't paying attention to eliminating the distorted and harmful use of their body that they've learnt progressively from early childhood. This gives rise to or at least greatly aggravates a wide range of accumulating physical and mental problems that are normally passed off by doctors as just your age.

  Here are a couple of examples to give some idea of the significance of 'end-gaining'.

  Walking…
  The end-gainer ('normal' person) just walks, without a thought about how (s)he is walking. The person automatically puts each foot forward and hauls himself forward, with any of a whole plethora of body distortions and imbalances, and has attention only upon arriving at his destination (somehow!).

  Because he is unaware of any need to cultivate poise and balance, he is always holding himself upright by means of muscular effort rather than any state of balance, and so wants to spend much of his time sitting or indeed lying because walking and standing are fatiguing. With age, the person becomes increasingly sluggish and poorly balanced, with increasing body distortions, and, mentally, becomes more set in his ways and generally more sluggish, dull and less 'with it'.

  The non-end-gainer, on the other hand, seeks to maximize the efficiency of his body use and thus his poise and balance, and arrives at a natural, loose mode of walking in which the body is always in a state of gentle falling forward, with each leg loosely swinging forward and producing a reflex propulsive flick of the foot from behind, which gives best leverage and minimum stress.

  The person constantly pays attention thus to how he is using himself, and learns to keep himself upright primarily through 'dynamic balance', with the bones of the legs and spine taking nearly all the weight, and the muscles simply maintaining sufficient tone to ensure that the weight burden for keeping him upright remains on the bones and not significantly on the muscles.

  Such a person generally remains loose-legged and nimble-footed and active, with continuing optimal body alignment, poise and balance, with ongoing mental acuity and buoyancy throughout much of 'old age'.

  Happiness…
  The end-gainer seeks to be 'happy', but has done little or no 'homework' to establish the true nature of the 'happiness' that he seeks.

  So he does things that he thinks will make him 'happy', such as dulling his senses with drink or fouling up his brain function and screwing himself up emotionally by watching television — or he goes for some sort of 'buzz' from some drug or another, or of course the big and very addictive 'buzz' of sexual activity and desire and getting battened down into an attached and actually stultifying 'relationship'.

  Yet somehow the person shows no sign of being a really happy person — he lives for doing things that he believes or hopes will make him happy, and without regard for whether any of those things that he is doing are actually doing him any good. In fact, although he doesn't recognise it, almost all the 'happy' or 'nice' feelings that he does manage to get from his end-gaining activities are at least strongly adulterated with painful emotions of various types, and some of them are little more than the 'flip side' of specific painful emotions. Some happiness!

  The non-end-gainer, on the other hand, finds that an underlying, intrinsic buoyant and dynamic happiness progressively opens out as he consistently attends to the means to live his life in the most healthy and harmonious way.

  He has no cause at all to seek happiness, for it's already 'here' and is simply the natural result of his looking after and loving himself and ensuring that the way he lives, and the things he does, are all healthy and strengthening for him. He is fundamentally a happy person, no matter what life throws at him.

  The one way that I know of clearing oneself of end-gaining is through a really thoroughgoing ongoing use of the Alexander Technique, which latter cultivates the requisite awareness of and attention to the means by which one gains a particular result — which of course includes the awareness to properly scrutinize one's motivations for seeming to 'want' various things that are actually not in one's best interests.

  One's life thus becomes much more healthy, happy and abundant, and it gains much more sense of 'meaning' about it — the 'autopilot' and indeed the pretty meaningless concept of 'happiness' (as something one needs to strive for), being consigned to the recycling bin!

 

• energy / energies / chi / qi
  'Energy', as any sort of non-physical manifestation, is actually almost as indefinable as the terms 'consciousness' or 'reality' — despite the fact that huge numbers of people (especially New Age associated) believe that they perceive 'energy' or 'energies', and indeed many are more or less addicted to 'working' with it or them. 'Energy' and its various synonyms is thus really just a term of convenience that covers a multitude of 'sins'.

  Some 'energy' manifestations that people experience are largely or completely illusory phenomena created for them by the garbage in order to convince them that there's some sort of energy flow or activity. This occurs especially in 'healing', where typically the 'healer' and recipient get the impression of considerable heat or sensations like a weak electric current, and may see all sorts of 'light' manifestations in their 'inner' (i.e., astral) vision.

  With regard to the garbage and the astral, please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…

  Those types of manifestation are always bogus, for genuine impressions from healing work would be extremely subtle and wouldn't be perceived at all by people who were not very advanced in their self-actualization (and indeed particularly well grounded). In any case, the process of giving healing to oneself or others is much more helpfully interpreted in terms of resonances within consciousness / reality rather than in terms of energy flow / dynamics.

  Because of all the misinterpretations and misunderstandings that are encouraged by use of the concept of non-physical 'energy', there's a strong case for not using that or any equivalent term, and actually examining with more depth of awareness what's really going on and describing it in more accurate terminology that excludes or at least redefines the current New Age associated 'energy' concept.

  The big problem is that throughout human history the garbage has been cultivating the notion of various types of 'energy', all as part of its extremely harmful agenda of side-tracking people away from recognising the underlying non-dual nature of all 'reality'.

  So, instead of perceiving ourselves as non-duality within which dualistic experiences arise, we're encouraged to perceive ourselves as 'energy machines' interacting with an 'energy Universe', so we're each a separate part of a vast interplay of 'energies', rather than being a continuum of consciousness / awareness / 'reality', which latter is what an enlightened person would perceive.

  The very concept of all these 'energies' moving about consistently reinforces our perceiving ourselves as separate from each other and from our apparent surroundings, and of course separated from 'source' — which all points us squarely away from any genuine enlightenment and self-actualization direction.

  People with psychic perceptions do appear to directly perceive various 'energies' and 'energy' configurations such as aura structure and chakras — but what they don't understand is that what they're perceiving is NOT what's actually there but what the garbage is showing them, with its agenda to seriously mislead. Psychic perception (or indeed 'higher sensory' perception à la Barbara Brennan) is nothing other than a particular 'flavour' of astral perception, and, in practice, that means simply being able to see what the garbage is showing one.

 

• Energy Egg / Guardian Angel / Archangel ("the Energy Egg 'family'")

  

  (The Energy Egg referred to here isn't to be confused with an electrical energy-saving device of the same name, and the Guardian Angel and Archangel are not to be confused with their much better-known non-physical and thus purely illusory namesakes!)
  Ovoid-shaped user-controlled energy devices produced and marketed by a firm called Realhealth-Online and other business names run by the same partnership (Stephen and Lynda Kane).

  Although I have significant reservations about these particular devices, and particularly their source and the categorical claims made for them (and the aforementioned individuals behaved towards me with a brazen lack of integrity in attempts to discredit me and my own work), they were my own introduction to user-controlled energy devices, and marked the beginning of my taking on a whole methodology that enabled me to progressively clear myself of a relatively desperate situation with major garbage interference and attacks.

  I furthered the process by developing the more comprehensively and flexibly functional Clarity-Sphere, though in September 2018 I finally declared even that redundant, having progressively built up a whole set of methods more effective than ones using the Clarity-Sphere, and which don't use any external aid at all.

  I hadn't been recommending the Energy Egg 'family' of devices for a fair number of years, because (a) they make for a very piecemeal (and expensive!) way to assist one's self-actualization process as compared with the Clarity-Sphere, (b) as explained on my Clarity-Sphere page, there are aspects of the source of the Energy Egg 'family' that show that the business has a shady and, shall we say, hardly honest nature ('semi-scam' comes to mind as a reasonably polite description), which is hardly supportive to genuine self-actualization, and, unsurprisingly, then, (c) the categorical nature of the claims made for the devices doesn't 'add up' in relation to my understanding of how such devices could genuinely work.

  As already noted, the whole concept of non-physical 'energy' is extremely unhelpful, so the use of the name 'Energy Egg' for the respective device is unfortunate, and would help encourage people to keep thinking in terms of 'energy' rather than consciousness itself — which would help obstruct any self-actualization process of theirs.

  For more about these, remembering that they were dropped from my methodology as long ago as 2011, please see
  The Clarity-Sphere — For Advanced Healing and Self-Actualization .

 

• 'energy field' / resonance field (non-physical)
  An invisible 'field' that appears to exist around each person, in which the person appears to have certain non-physical effects upon or be affected by other people and even inanimate objects. Such effects are widely but mistakenly taken to be evidence or indeed 'proof' of the existence of the actually illusory / mythical structured 'energy system' or 'aura'.

  Such effects include most notably a very wide range of emotional 'resonance' effects and the most free transmission of thought forms — though 'dark' practitioners regularly project the latter beyond their resonance field to their targets (generally victims).

  Non-physical interactions with inanimate objects include the whole gamut of environmental stress and indeed environmental harmoniousness effects of objects and their spatial configuration in one's immediate surroundings, and also the beneficial effects of apparently programmed stones such as the now-legacy Clarity-Sphere and somewhat discredited Energy Egg 'family' of devices.

  It appears that 'resonance field' is really the more accurate term to use, not least because it gets one clear of the insidious trap of regarding what are actually manifestations of consciousness as 'energy'. The catch is, however, that normally if I talk of one's 'resonance field' few or no people would understand what I was on about unless I explained it there and then. For this reason I expect still to reluctantly use 'energy field' most of the time — though always in single quotes, to indicate that it's being used figuratively.

 

• energy system (non-physical), aura
  Sort-of equivalent to the so-called 'aura' in normal usage, 'energy system' is the normal, widely used term for what I much prefer to call one's non-physical aspects because of the problematical aspects of regarding what's actually consciousness / awareness as 'energy'. For this reason, when I do use the term 'energy system' (to assist comprehensibility for other people), I aim to remember to place the term always in single quotes.

  My best understanding so far is that the 'energy system' as meant here is NOT the same as what I'm calling the 'energy field' or 'resonance field'. Most people who recognise some sort of subtle 'energy system' or 'aura' are confused about that difference and mistakenly take the various observable or at least deducible effects of the 'resonance field' as being manifestations of, and thus supposedly 'proof' of, the existence of, the 'aura'.

  Please note that ALL so-called aura photographs are NOT portraying the genuine aura at all (i.e., even if it really existed), but are showing various artefacts produced by interference pattern or chaotic system effects involving a much more superficial and at least more or less physical energy field around the human body — which energy field itself is apparently something different from and additional to the non-physical 'energy field' / 'resonance field' that I recognise.

  My understanding is that all the structures of the 'energy system' that psychics see — including auric bodies / levels, chakras, meridians, channels and so forth — are just illusory manifestations being shown to those psychics by the garbage with intent to mislead.

  This doesn't mean that none of what the psychics 'see' exists at all in any form, but rather, what they're shown (but actually never see directly) is at best only a greatly stylized or figurative representation of what's actually there, and also, because of the garbage involvement, would always be distorted in ways that are calculated to mislead in insidiously troublesome ways.

  The (actually illusory) 'aura' structures — particularly the chakras — are widely used, both awarely and unawarely, to cause people harm, which can be particularly serious in outright psychic attacks. Just as with 'earth energies', although the chakras etc. are illusory, one person who is carrying a belief / illusory reality in which they're real can do harm to another person carrying a belief / illusory reality in which the same is true, via tampering with or outright attacking the target person's (illusory) chakras, and can also similarly suffer harm themselves from their own (illusory) chakras being interfered with.

  A lot of usually relatively low-level harm by this means generally occurs in 'healing' work in which both 'healer' and recipient harbour any 'chakras are real' belief / illusory reality. In most cases neither party has any idea that anything in the slightest untoward is happening in such sessions, but they just keep getting all sorts of problems that get in the way of their living really healthy and happy lives. However, in some cases they get major problems, which then often get labelled as 'healing crises'.

  Actually, my statement about the 'aura' / 'energy system' as being equivalent to what I call one's non-physical aspects is a statement of convenience for general comprehension, but I think it's really not accurate.

  The point is that one's non-physical aspects are necessarily not physically located, and thus are at best only partially equivalent to the very definitely physically located 'aura' or 'energy system' as normally understood, which is purported to extend outwards around the body for a finite distance. Because they aren't physically located, it naturally follows that they wouldn't have any sort of structures or structuring that could be pictured or described in any really meaningful way, because such structuring would require some sort of physical location in order to have a spatial arrangement.

  It' was typical of the garbage, that it was always seeking to get people to turn away from the simplicity and 'subtlety' of one's genuine non-physical aspects and the simple 'resonance field' and weak physical electromagnetic field surrounding the body, and substitute for that the complexities of the non-physical but yet purportedly physically located structures of the aura. That's a complete logical contradiction, that something non-physical can yet be physically located* — so it's hardly surprising, then, that the 'aura' would be just another of the garbage-sourced illusions in the astral non-reality, where all was illusion and there were no obvious 'natural laws' to restrict how things could be.

  * Actually, there's one apparent exception that I'm aware of, in that elementals appear to violate that principle, in that they're apparently non-physical and yet tend to be apparently physically located and can cause physical effects — and for the moment I don't fully understand this phenomenon.

  The suggestion that I get from my inner inquiry, which must necessarily be treated as somewhat speculative, is that thought 'energy' generally that is projected as thought forms / elementals — as distinct from the 'energy' of just thinking — is projected into the astral non-reality.

  It may be, then, that the thought forms / elementals are never really in the physical reality at all, but instead have been placed in an astral (and thus necessarily at least somewhat distorted) replica of it, and the presence of one or more people who are sufficiently weakly grounded enables the garbage to cause a small 'breakthrough' from the astral to the physical — which is what happens when somebody uses 'special powers' to carry out 'magic' or 'miracles'.

  That's always a potentially harmful sort of phenomenon, because it's actually in small measure a breakdown of the natural order of the physical 'reality' as we know it, and more than a certain small amount of that occurring could theoretically destroy the whole of 'Existence', reducing it to a hellish chaos beyond anyone's worst imaginings — one very good reason for NOT deliberately creating elementals or otherwise using 'special powers'.

• enlightenment (aka 'spiritual enlightenment')
  A particular fundamental change — indeed a complete overturning — of one's viewpoint on the nature of oneself and of 'reality' that is an essential step in one's self-actualization process. Note that enlightenment is a radical change of viewpoint and NOT a feeling nor an emotional state of any kind, NOR any sort of opening to 'interesting' non-physical perceptions or visionary / revelationary experiences.

  Note that in proper — i.e., genuinely helpful and most informative — usage the term is NEVER capitalized. As soon as a person capitalizes it, (s)he is at once demonstrating to those who have 'eyes to see', that (s)he has some mistaken and harmful, belief-based views about the nature of so-called enlightenment. Capitalization immediately implies a sanctification of enlightenment — viewing and treating it as something sacred or holy.

  When you do that, you're cultivating a belief that enlightenment is difficult to 'achieve' and needs special measures (usually the mediation of some sort of 'holy' person — a high-ranking guru or priest, often, in particular, by use of 'initiations') to 'get there'.

  What that is doing is helping to ensure that you get entangled with a pile of illusory realities that contain very distorted notions of what enlightenment is, so masses of people worldwide are constantly being diverted from the simplicity and ordinariness (and thus accessibility!!) of genuine enlightenment, into harmful side-tracks.

  NOBODY needs any sort of 'initiation' in order for them to become enlightened. Indeed people need NOT to have an 'initiation' for enlightenment or indeed for ANYTHING at all!

  The vast majority of people who believe that they've become enlightened or found enlightenment haven't found the real thing. They all in their different ways have got deceived or sidetracked by equating enlightenment with a particular feeling, emotional state or supposedly revelationary experience — particularly something euphoric or spaced-out, or equating it with their starting to get a lot of psychic or 'spiritual' perceptions — which are really just astral perceptions, and thus just what the garbage has shown them in order to mislead.

  Prior to enlightenment one perceives oneself as being a discrete 'I', which interacts with seemingly external objects and events; one is a very little 'thing' or 'island' in a very big Universe, and any non-physical 'Ultimate' would be still vaster and further removed from oneself.

  Upon enlightenment (which is a sudden change that can be likened to a phase shift or the turning of a switch), the person comes to directly perceive the indefinable deepest, apparently completely non-dual, aspect of consciousness as being his true nature and indeed the underlying true nature of everything. So, instead of perceiving himself as reacting to external objects and people and phenomena, he directly perceives himself as being the metaspace within which arise all objects, all phenomena, and thus all that is experienced.

  Although one's being enlightened means just that one has a particular viewpoint on reality, and has no specific feelings or emotional state attached to it, the actual experience of becoming / having just become enlightened does normally give rise to emotions and particular feelings. It needs to be clearly understood that those feelings and emotional states are NOT those of enlightenment itself, but reflect one's response to the radical change of viewpoint.

  Indeed, in virtually all cases the garbage exploits the experience because that sudden overturning of one's view of reality is naturally ungrounding to one's awareness and needs some adjusting to over a period. So, the garbage typically goes in on the attack, so that generally at least most of the emotion or other feelings that one experiences during and immediately following that event are — yes — garbage attack!

  Indeed, even if a person experiences great 'peacefulness', euphoria, happiness or joy at that time, the lion's share of that would be garbage attack. It serves the garbage well to do that, because that helps to distract the person away from his actual new enlightened viewpoint and to focus instead on the feelings, imagining that they themselves represent the enlightenment (as already noted).

  Actually 'enlightenment' is an unfortunate misnomer, because it's nothing to do with light, but the garbage seeks to cultivate notions that in various ways it is connected or associated with light. Rather than light, it's actually about clarity. I therefore much prefer the term 'fundamental clarity' — though unfortunately if I generally used that term, too few people would know what I was talking about.

• entity (relating to non-physical phenomena)
  A usually rather loosely used term to cover any non-physical phenomenon that at least to some degree appears to be behaving as though it's an actual conscious being. It's usually not used for a supposed 'higher' being such as a guide, ascended master, angel, etc.

  My own understanding is that what people perceive as 'entities' are actually not conscious beings at all. Soul fragments, which don't communicate with anyone but can readily attach to susceptible people and cause them problems, may well be the only type of 'entity' that has some degree of real consciousness, but even there it would at best be only a very partial sort of consciousness, because it would actually be 'based' in the person it belongs to and thus wouldn't be a genuine separate entity (sic) at all, even though being 'separate' from whoever it may attach to.

  The vast majority of 'entities' that people experience, including all supposed 'higher' beings, are, to my best understanding, illusions created in the minds of the particular people by the garbage.

  Those 'entities' that manifest as troublesome 'spirit attachments' that actually communicate with the affected person and even move parts of the person's body (in some cases even throwing a person around a room, causing him to collide with things and hurt himself) appear to be elementals rather than real conscious beings, though the most troublesome of those may well be what I call combo entities.

 

• environmental stress (ES)
  A whole range of adverse effects that one may get from various objects in and aspects of one's surroundings, in addition to any gross or 'obvious' physical harm such as mechanical damage / injury, poisoning (i.e., that's recognised) or extreme temperature or electrocution effects.

  These additional deleterious effects operate upon one's non-physical aspects (and thus aren't recognised by the medical profession), and are typically progressive over a more or less long period, eventually resulting in various physical and often mental health issues developing, which are difficult / impossible for 'ordinary' people (including medics) to link back to their actual cause. Such problems are thus generally unhelpfully assumed to be 'just the way things are' for the particular person, or to be a result of ageing.

  ES is generally playing a much bigger part in people's physical and mental health issues than the vast majority of people could even imagine. However, it's nowhere near the big deal that many 'healers', psychics, and (especially) promoters / vendors of purported ES reduction / elimination products believe or at least claim.

  At least nearly all the commercial products that are claimed to eliminate, or protect you from, ESs are effectively a seriously harmful SCAM, notwithstanding the glowing claims made for them by their purveyors and of course the long lists of testimonials from supposedly 'satisfied' (and indeed gullible) customers.

  For much more about this, please see
  Is environmental stress real? — A rational approach.

  I point to a set of methods to use, which would considerably reduce your ES 'load' in the course of bringing about fundamental general life upturn, inHealing and self-actualization — The safest and quickest way.

 

• eternity
  The concept of 'for ever and ever, without end', cherished by various religions. To those who have a reasonable understanding of the nature of 'reality' (and thus, of consciousness itself), 'eternity' is a meaningless concept (like the absurd fairy story ending, …and they lived happily together for ever after), for we simply experience what we experience and don't experience what we don't experience! We have absolutely no way to know of any 'eternity'.

  Further, every tiniest morsel of our experience points clearly to impermanence of whatever we experience. Indeed, the very notion of experiencing anything (e.g., hell, or a sublime relationship, such as with a supposed 'twin flame' or with the supposed 'God' or other believed-in 'celestial father figure') for eternity is completely nonsensical. Change and thus impermanence is in the very essence of what we could recognise as experience, awareness or consciousness.

  Experiencing the non-duality of one's own deepest aspect (as an enlightened person does) tends quite often to be interpreted as experiencing some sort of eternity, because at that level of being it's not possible to identify any beginning or end of oneself or of anything. However, that would be a distorted interpretation, because there's nothing within nor about non-duality that ever could equate with or be identified as eternity. All one can ever 'know' is that things are as they are, however they are, and we simply experience what we experience, when we experience it!

  The fact of not being able to detect any sign of a beginning or end within your deepest aspect does NOT mean that it's eternal, at least, in the way that people generally mean by that word — but neither does it mean that it's not.

  The correct interpretation is simply that it's beyond concepts and thus beyond any possibility of your understanding it, because what we recognise as 'understanding' or indeed, 'interpretation' completely depends on concepts, which indeed are ALL tied to impermanence and change, and so intrinsically can't lead anyone to genuine understanding of the non-dual aspect of our experience.

 

• etheric
  An epithet applied to objects or matter that are perceived or visualized astrally. Thus, 'etheric' is simply a respectable euphemism for 'astral'. And what do we know about anything that's astral? — Why, it doesn't exist! — That is, except as an illusory or indeed imaginary manifestation.

  So, for example, a person who has etheric 'angel wings' does NOT have wings of any kind, angel or otherwise, but what that person does have is a very weakly grounded state and a strong illusory reality and very likely conscious belief that (s)he has angel wings. That indicates not at all anything usefully 'special' about that person, but a serious problem that that person has, which needs timely action to resolve.

  Similarly, if you have 'guidance' that directs you to create and do things with 'etheric' vomit (as happened for me), you can take heart in the fact that the vomit — if indeed it really is 'etheric' — actually doesn't exist and is effectively just imaginary — and you could also do yourself a great favour by recognising that heeding such 'guidance' (or indeed any non-physical 'guidance') isn't good use of your attention and your time! Indeed, you'd also need to be aware that the 'guidance' is none other than a left-over relic of the late garbage, and so is particularly worth having absolutely nothing to do with.

  The 'late' garbage — WTF??! — Yes, indeed; please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Indeed, 'the astral' is also apparently no more.

  Similarly, an 'etheric double', which I understand to be used in some 'magic' practices, is an illusory, astral, replica of something or somebody. The use of 'special powers' ('magic') generally made much use of illusory phenomena in the astral non-reality. It's all extremely harmful and indeed dangerous because of the intricate involvement of the garbage in all such practices — no matter whether any 'magic' is spelled (sic) 'magick' or whether it's believed to be 'black', 'white' or sky-blue pink!

 

• evaluation (mental process)
  The process of a first-time sifting through all one's remembered experiences to fully understand and learn from them. It's the real learning process, and brings about deep understanding.* This is an unconscious process, which occurs generally within the first sleep period following the respective events / experiences. It also occurs in some measure during other periods of repose if one's mindspace is sufficiently free and empty (which, for the majority of people, it rarely or never is).

  * Indeed, conscious attempts to learn particular things hinder the process, resulting in only a very superficial type of learning that is very deficient in genuine understanding. Sadly, that's the norm in people's 'education'.

  Evaluation is hindered or largely blocked by emotional stress or trauma, so that, because so much of our experience is coloured or associated with such emotional issues (whether we're aware of it or not), people generally are regularly accumulating more and more memories that they can't at least fully evaluate. These are stored in a mental 'holding area' for later attempts at 're-evaluation'.

  I explain more fully about this process and the major problems caused by the accumulating pool of unevaluated memory data, in
  Ways of handling a prospective rough or sleepless night.

 

• evil
  Like 'good', 'bad', 'right' and 'wrong', this is just a judgemental label that most people like to put on certain things and indeed people that they take a very strongly negative view of. 'Evil', like those other attributes, isn't an intrinsic quality of anything. Of course, people who are 'in belief' may believe very fervently that evil 'exists' — but that's only because their belief is associated with blocked awareness and seriously limited rational thinking ability.

  Such people may berate me for being 'disingenuous' in supposedly being in denial of the 'reality' of 'evil', but that tells us only about the limited mental capacity of those believers, who categorize what they perceive but fail to understand that those categorizations represent only their own judgements and not intrinsic aspects of 'What Is'.

  Some things in this life experience are undoubtedly very troublesome for us, but the need is to recognise what's actually going on and to produce effective responses to address and indeed resolve the issues as far as they can be resolved. Just sticking judgemental labels on troublesome things or influences does no-one any favours and just obstructs any possibility of working out real solutions.

 

• faith (in the religious / spirituality sense)
  Please see belief. The word 'faith', used in this context, is just a bit of pretentious self-deception. The moment you call a belief a 'faith' you're effectively informing yourself and others that that particular belief renders you superior in some way, and must in no circumstances be held up to rational scrutiny. So, if you have a 'faith', you have something that you quite pressingly need to clear from yourself.

  If you have 'faith' (in the sense of 'trust') in somebody or something, then you still need to clear that from your system because it's giving your trust in whatever-it-is an undue sense of superiority and inscrutability, and that trust is really just another belief, and hence a problem for you. You need to regularly hold that trust up to rational scrutiny and clear it out as your own common sense and use of Helpfulness Testing indicate.

  There's a deeper, more fundamental level of trust in oneself and the life experience that some people are very keen on calling 'faith', but the latter word is best NOT used for that because of its loading with religious connotations and pretentiousness. I'd tend to call that sort of trust exactly what it is — something like 'a fundamental trust in myself / the life experience'.

 

• fistula
  Generally used as a medical term to denote an abnormal channel connecting two parts within the body or one part and the exterior, a common example of which is an anal fistula, which connects some part of the anal canal or lower rectum to the exterior via an opening close to the anus.

  It's also a useful term for a type of configuration anomaly within consciousness, by which a supposedly 'system-reserved' area of consciousness is accessible to people's 'ordinary minds'.

  This inevitably causes serious problems, not only through corruption of the intended functionality of the respective areas of consciousness, but also through being a violation of the structure and integrity of 'What Is' itself, with the long-term likelihood of a calamitous collapse of 'What Is' into an irretrievable chaos — potentially a permanent hell with no escape. Hence the pressing need to close up any such 'fistula' that's identified.

  The generally known example of the result of such a 'fistula' is the astral — what I called the astral sub-reality and more recently the astral non-reality once I'd better understood its true nature. So, people were persistently perceiving the particular 'system-reserved' area of consciousness, which wasn't meant at all to be accessed by their 'ordinary minds', as an alternative reality, and causing massive problems as a result.

  Apparently the astral was closed off from all human-type beings in the whole of 'Existence' in early 2022, so that that particular 'fistula' is now fixed, as part of my Project Fix the Human Condition.

• freedom of choice / free will
  A greatly misunderstood and widely abused concept. So many people aspire to having full freedom of choice or 'free will', or indeed make out that they have or should have it. — But do they, or indeed could they, really have any such thing?

  — Of course not! Nobody in the whole of 'Existence' can have full free choice or indeed anything remotely near such a state. If I were to have supposed full or total free choice, then I'd have to be directing every single detail of what I experience, including what or who I am, and everything and everyone in my surroundings — a complete impossibility and absurdity, which actually wouldn't be living at all in any meaningful way! It would mean that no-one and nothing other than me has any freedom of choice at all! Wow, what a life!

  The reality (sic) is that a plethora of myriads of constraints of free will is intrinsic to 'existence' or life experience (i.e., 'reality' as far as we can ever know it). Subjectively we still do have a certain degree of free will, but we can't actually know to what extent that free will is purely subjective and thus illusory (e.g., maybe we're all puppet creations of little green women remotely controlling us from some remote star system!).

  However, for practical purposes it's a pointless exercise speculating or intellectualizing about what's genuinely unknowable to us, so it's best that we simply recognise free will / free choice as being something that we do experience, even though we can't tell whether it objectively exists or indeed is a meaningful concept at all! Clear as mud?

  In real life experience, then, each person's potential freedom of choice is all the time moderated by other people's potential freedom of choice, so the life process is an unimaginably complex ongoing flow of interactions — of causes and effects. Through all that we do get some degree of subjective appearance of free choice.

  That apparent free choice is at a minimum for people who are imposing their will upon others, and at a maximum for us when we're moderating our own behaviour to support other people's freedom of choice in healthy ways. In other words, just living in denial of various people's harmful behaviours isn't maximizing anyone's genuine or useful freedom of choice, because those harmful behaviours themselves are impacting negatively on others' freedom of choice, and our denial is giving them tacit support in continuing in their troublesome ways.

  So, a fair proportion of people (generally ones doing something antisocial) exploit other people's confusions about supposed 'free choice' and, when challenged about something they're doing that impacts negatively or harmfully on others' freedom of choice, they stand up for their alleged 'right' to freedom of choice and to do what they like, and typically accuse their challengers of being 'control freaks'.

  Others, particularly in the arena of 'spirituality', exploit that confusion in order to help ward off those who would hold up to the light the idiocy and indeed harmfulness of the beliefs they're holding. It's 'each to his own', It's a free world, so we should live and let live, or He's got a right to do what he likes in his own home (where, for example, his tobacco smoke or very loud pop music or TV is harming the health of his neighbours), and so forth, are all distortions / abuses of the concept of freedom of choice, aimed at trying to justify the current confused and chaotic state of society.

  Individual freedoms, thus, often need to be moderated in proactive thought-out ways in order to maximize the amount of subjective free choice for all people. If everyone were operating in that sort of way, then, even though one is all the time being considerate for others' freedom of choice, one finds that, far from giving away one's own free choice, one is actually gaining it because of everyone else's considerate outlooks.

  For that to work, of course, people need to consult and co-operate about possible intrusions upon others rather than just competitively impose their intrusions and just see if anyone dares complain!

 

• full consciousness
  A variant of the 'ascension' concept, believed in by a small minority of people with New Age associated beliefs, and put forward, for example, in a number of books by the psychic surgeon Chris Thomas. 'Full consciousness' is a purported state of 'completion on Earth' (or 'ascension on Earth') that some people believe will come about for people generally when they've cleared all their emotional issues.

  When this state is achieved, purportedly one's 'higher consciousness', which in normal people is allegedly separated off in a higher (non-physical) dimension, 'descends' into the physical 'dimension' and integrates with the person's 'ordinary mind', making the person very powerful in all manner of supposedly very positive and beneficial ways. The person is assumed to be then enlightened and fully self-actualized, and it's claimed that such people would have twelve rather than two strands of active DNA in their chromosomes.

  This again is a mythical state, albeit supposedly here on Earth and not in some 'higher dimension', and, as with 'ascension', the myth includes the physically impossible fiction about people having their DNA progressively convert from 2-strand to 12-strand. The people who come out with belief in 'ascension' or 'full consciousness' are pointing well away from enlightenment and fully comprehensive genuine self-actualization, and have all been led by the garbage into getting attached to particular illusory realities that would cause them massive problems because of their increasing captivity to the garbage.

  This situation should be beginning to fade out, at least over a fair period, for dissolution of the garbage was apparently completed in early 2022. See Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

 

• fundamental clarity
  My preferred term for what's more generally known as enlightenment.

 

• fundamental consciousness
  This is the 'deepest' aspect of consciousness / reality of which anyone can be aware, and it's apparently completely non-dual and so defies proper description. It corresponds roughly with some people's use of the term 'the Universal Consciousness' in some people's usage, and in Tibetan Buddhism it's known as Dharmakaya and also rigpa, though the latter tends to be used more for an individual's experience of it and the former for it in its 'supra-universal' aspect.

  However, various traditions don't fully understand its non-dual nature and consequently ascribe to it conceptual thinking and communication abilities, which actually it doesn't have — in other words, they regard it as more like just another version of 'God' (and thus, sadly, are closed to genuine enlightenment and more advanced genuine self-actualization).

  It's to be clearly distinguished, however, from the so-called 'Common Unconscious' or 'collective human consciousness' of various traditions and disciplines, which is very definitely dualistic, and, according to my understanding, is none other than particular aspects of the astral non-reality.

  Although the more deeply aware people do to varying extents experience the non-duality of fundamental consciousness, nearly all of them don't actually recognise it as such. Enlightenment marks the point at which a person directly perceives and recognises that most subtle, non-dual aspect of their experience as actually being their own true nature and identity — what I often figuratively describe as the metaspace within which all experience and phenomena arise.

  It's assumed that this deepest level of consciousness transcends the apparent separateness of every single human or other conscious being, though, because of its non-dual nature, there's no means by which we could verify or conceptually 'know' that in any objective way.

  Actually, the term 'fundamental consciousness' can be a bit misleading in implying some sort of separateness from 'ordinary' consciousness. Strictly speaking, the best term would be 'the fundamental aspect of consciousness' — but that would be too much of a mouthful. Thus, 'fundamental consciousness' really needs to be seen as a convenient shorthand for the really clear and unambiguous term.

  Please note that what some people, especially in the so-called New Age movement, call the Creator Consciousness (with or without capitalization), does NOT equate with fundamental consciousness, even though many regard it as being 'the universal consciousness' and so supposedly the same as fundamental consciousness.

  Please note also that it's important NOT to use the term 'fundamental consciousness' either capitalized or with an article ('the' or 'a'). The moment one commits any of those mortal sins () one has lost the plot with regard to understanding what fundamental consciousness actually is. Capitalizing the term or talking of 'the fundamental consciousness', for example, is immediately implying that it's a thing — which also implies separateness from us. Could you call space a 'thing'? — Well, fundamental consciousness is less of a 'thing' even than that!

 

• fundamental memory
  A postulated databank or repository of everything that has ever been experienced by consciousness in any form through the whole of 'Existence', whether in this Universe or any other, and indeed even outside any universe if that were possible. This data is conveniently assumed to be held within fundamental consciousness, though it's actually not possible to tell whether it's actually limited to fundamental consciousness itself; I suspect that the 'location' of fundamental memory would be much less sharply delineated than that.

  My understanding is that this data is NOT chronologically arranged, at least in any way that we as incarnated beings would recognise, so it's not something that anyone could 'read', at least in any way that people would seek to do. However, the more deeply aware people do get various subtle impressions from particular inner glimpses of experiences stored in fundamental memory.

  One's deepest aspects are fully in touch with fundamental memory, and for that reason, the latter can be used to gently inform our more dualistic, 'conscious' aspects about various things that relate to details in our everyday life experience.

  Artists of various sorts are inclined to get such impressions more noticeably than most other people, because they'd inevitably be allowing some sort of flow of 'experience data' to be coming from deeper levels of their awareness — probably nowhere more than in the case of music composition.

  This appears to be the underlying cause for various artists getting mystifying 'déjà vu' experiences about their works — a strong impression of having experienced something more or less identical to something in their work in some previous lifetime.

  I myself have had many of these impressions with particular passages in various of my music compositions, and indeed in the case of my 7th Symphony and Clarity of a Mountain Sunrise I got the distinct impression of those particular whole works already being clearly remembered from some apparent past life, while in Sunrise on Ama Dablam there's one passage where I get the very strong memory impression of my having actually been among monks chanting that strange music.

  While many people would have actual past life memories of their own if they've soul reincarnated, those memories would be much more detailed and 'coarse' than the very subtle and non-narrative ones that come from fundamental memory.

  One important point to note here is that, because of the deep and 'universal' nature of the aspect of consciousness that 'houses' fundamental memory, it's not possible ever to know whether such a memory impression that comes to you from fundamental memory relates to any previous lifetime of your own. It could very likely be somebody else's, but your own deepest aspects presumably brought the particular memory impression to your attention for some particular positive informative purpose (i.e., as distinct from the way the garbage was seeking to obliterate such subtle impressions with much coarser and 'louder' impressions in order to mislead one in various ways).

  Fundamental memory is to be clearly distinguished from the so-called Akashic records, which were a distorted and mangled hotchpotch of data that the garbage had trawled from fundamental memory, stringing together bits and pieces of it into various chronological sequences to make up the stories and 'explanations' (i.e., actually legends and outright myths) that it was giving to psychics, who, because the awareness of them ALL is significantly weakly grounded, are unwitting and highly gullible channels for the misinformation that they receive one way or another through their psychic (i.e.,astral) perceptions.

  Surprised at past tense being used for the garbage? — Please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

• fundamental name
  A name given to the specific micro-aspect of fundamental consciousness ('fundamental spark', perhaps?) that is the continuity-essence of every personality / incarnation on a particular incarnational thread. This is something completely new (as from late June 2023), and only individuals with a particularly strong and 'open' communication pathway between deepest aspects and 'ordinary mind' can have one at this stage, though in the very long term every 'fundamental spark' would have one. Choosing one is carried out in consultation between one's 'ordinary mind' and deepest aspects. That name then would be permanent over all further incarnations on that thread, and would be changed only in specific (and indeed currently unforeseen) circumstances.

  To gain a fundamental name is immensely and profoundly empowering, because the holder of that name is then much more in touch with the reality of his/her being a manifestation of 'the Ultimate' — with all manner of greatly positive potentialities arising from that. However, that name would generally not be used in ordinary everyday life (though in no way is it forbidden), but would be used in various specific situations where it's appropriate (in practical terms) to do so.

  Generally speaking, at the current time it would be problematical to use one's fundamental name in place of one's incarnation-specific name, or indeed at all much in everyday life, because that would be very ungrounding, and would take attention too much away from one's current incarnated state and the uniqueness of each incarnation. Careful discernment would therefore always be needed regarding use of one's fundamental name.

• fundamental spark
  A convenient term I coined for the micro-aspect of fundamental consciousness that forms the basis of a single incarnational thread. Some — perhaps eventually all — people would sooner or later have a fundamental name for their respective fundamental spark.

 

• Galactic energies
  Purported (actually fictional) non-physical or metaphysical 'energies' that are supposedly available to us from beyond our own planetary system. In practical terms the concept is just a variant of 'Earth energies', and the same red warnings apply.

 

• (the) garbage (often mistakenly equated with 'dark force', 'forces of darkness', 'forces of evil', 'demonic forces')
  Important — note my use of the past tense for the garbage! See Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

  My preferred name for what was widely but confusedly often called 'forces of darkness' or indeed Satan*, but which for some years I used to refer to as the 'dark force' (singular, always enclosed in single quotes to signify that it's actually only a figurative term and doesn't properly describe that troublesome influence). This more recent preference for 'garbage' isn't a matter of just some personal quirk or indulgence of mine.

  * Really, equating the garbage with 'forces of darkness', 'Satan', 'forces of evil', 'demonic forces', etc., is incorrect and harmfully misleading. I'd been publicly describing it in that way just so that ordinary people have a partial rather than nonexistent idea of what the eff I'm going on about when writing about the garbage, for to explain fully accurately what it really was in parentheses following my first use of that 'g' word, would have been unworkable.

  In reality the garbage itself was none of those stated aliases at all (i.e., not even the 'forces of darkness'), but was the troublesome unseen influence that was causing people to perceive or at least to believe in them AND ALL OTHER types of non-physical being or 'presence', including supposed spirit guides, angels, ascended masters, 'God' (under any name), great buddhas, Jesus, and so on.

  Let's repeat that slightly differently to increase the reader's possibility of understanding what I'm saying here — what the garbage really was. It was NOT the same as or equivalent to ANY non-physical beings, entities or presences that people (any at all!) had previously recognised or believed in.

  Rather, it was the previously unrecognised unseen troublesome influence that was underlying and causing people to experience, or at least believe in, ALL those actually illusory manifestations, whether they be 'dark', 'light' or indeed supposedly 'divine'. So, any 'entities' that would be troubling you were NOT in themselves the garbage, but were illusory manifestations caused by it. The same for 'Satan', any 'angel', 'God', 'Allah', 'Shiva', 'Jesus', 'Virgin Mary', and so on.

  Because of the very nature of the garbage (thought forms), it was reinforced and given power over people by their using a name or title for it or any of the illusory manifestations that it was causing that implied that it or they had any sort of power. So, calling it or any of its manifestations a 'force' had to be 'out' straightaway, and also any name or description that implied that it was any sort of conscious being.

  It also made sense to go further and use a term that implied that it was something completely powerless and only for getting rid of, incinerating, composting, dissolving or disposing of in any suitable and fit way, say, like faeces or excreta. Regarding it thus helped actually to disempower it.

  Note particularly that in this usage of the word 'garbage', it's a countable noun, even though always singular — which helps to distinguish it from the regular, physical meaning for 'garbage', which is uncountable.

  On my web pages I'm aiming to help keep things clear by using a dotted underline and a mouse-hover information 'tooltip' for each use of 'garbage' with my special meaning, so that it will be clear, hopefully even for the least receptive site visitors, how I'm using the word. And yes, I do have the odd reference to garbage garbage! Maybe a bit confusing where it happens, but c'est la vie!

  The garbage, then,was the troublesome non-physical influence that was interfering, directly or indirectly, with every single person. Actually, even if one mistakenly equates 'dark force' or 'forces of darkness' with the garbage, either would be quite a misnomer, because 'dark' here is only figurative, and signifies the way that this particular influence was consistently cultivating confusion and failure to see what's really there — and also this influence was not a 'force' in any helpful sense* in the first place.

  * — In just the same way that one wouldn't call a computer virus a 'force', even though it can be extremely troublesome. Programming, which they both are in their different ways, isn't really a 'force' in any helpful sense.

  This troublesome influence was encouraging very many people, by a wide range of means (especially fear, and plain unawareness) to deny its very existence, while for other people it was cultivating all manner of distorted notions of its true nature — creating illusory manifestations of entities, beings or 'spirits' within their mindspace. People thus (if they were really bold!) then would attempt to battle in one way or another against those illusions, completely unaware that those are actually just 'paper tigers', and that by doing that they were actually reinforcing the troublesome influence that was creating those illusions.

  The garbage was apparently not any sort of self-aware conscious being or 'presence' at all, but a complex of thought forms that was operating in the astral non-reality. Thought forms, if left alone, would naturally dissolve over a relatively short time-scale (perhaps months or a year or two), but those thought forms included programming to make them interfere with people in ways that caused them to keep re-creating and reinforcing those thought forms.

  I also found strong pointers to there being an additional aspect of the garbage, which made it much more effective in interfering with people to ensure its continuing survival — the postulated cacoprotean network.

  To the best of my understanding, thus, the garbage was NOT intrinsically 'evil' (nor 'negative', nor indeed 'positive') in itself, and had no specific intent to cause people harm, any more than a computer virus or a malaria-carrying mosquito does, and it would have had no experience, either 'positive' or 'negative', from doing so.

  It was simply programming in 'thought energy' that was perpetuating itself by interfering with people in whatever ways ensure the ongoing survival of that programming — and that even included the attempted inactivation or 'elimination' of individuals who appeared to be a potential threat to it. Hence all its untoward behaviour towards people, including its very considerable attempts to destroy me.

  The garbage is nothing to do with 'the force' in the Star Wars TV series — except that the writers of that would have been, awarely or unawarely, presenting a fanciful and thus more or less distorted version of the actual 'dark force', i.e., certain particularly troublesome illusory manifestations caused by the garbage.

  So, those who dismiss my writings because my mentioning the 'dark force' is, supposedly, just presenting a junky Star Wars type of scenario are making complete fools of themselves. In reality, Star Wars has been presenting simply a junky, trivialized depiction of the actual 'dark force' (i.e., a garbage-sourced illusory manifestation ), which is among the major things that I myself have the dubious 'pleasure' of going on about on this site.

  Also, this has nothing at all to do with what cosmologists and others call a 'dark force', 'dark universe' or 'dark matter' in their seeking to explain the origin, structure and behaviour of our physical Universe.

• ghost
  An elemental created, generally unawarely, by a person at the time of death. Contrary to popular belief, my own indications are that ghosts are NEVER actual earthbound consciousnesses ('spirits of people who've died'). In fact the moronic and pointless apparent behaviours of what people take to be ghosts really rule out any realistic possibility that they're actual consciousnesses anyway. Indeed, generally any 'behaviour' of a supposed ghost is strictly not behaviour of the ghost itself, but of impressions that one is picking up from memories stored in that elemental.

• grounded
  An optimally grounded person is fully incarnated, and thus has an optimum balance between physical and non-physical 'connectedness' and awareness. Such a person is, all other things being equal, much healthier than one who is weakly grounded — particularly healthier mentally, for (s)he is at least largely immune to at least the more significant direct interferences and attacks from the garbage*. The notion of anyone being, or needing to be, fully grounded is a myth!

  * My understanding is that since early 2022 direct interferences / attacks would have ceased, but for most people those would be subjectively continuing because of ingrained patterns of brain function that had been caused by previous long-term direct interference from the garbage. See Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

  Yes, note that an optimally grounded person is technically far from fully grounded! Carefully read that first sentence above to get the proper sense of it.

  There's thus an irony about this, in that generally the most 'well-grounded' people are those who are carrying a lot of soul programming, which limits the depth of their awareness and so left them more or less closed to obvious direct interferences and attacks from the garbage. Those people are really not 'well' grounded at all, but 'over-grounded', at least in terms of balance, so they're unaware of their deeper levels of consciousness or their huge mass of unrealized potential.

  That soul programming itself was installed in their system by the garbage, and it ensures that they stay roughly in line with the garbage agenda (and pointed well away from any genuine self-actualization direction), and thus they're effectively captives of the (now non-existent) garbage — which isn't at all a healthy state to be in!

  See also ungrounded / weakly grounded.

 

• 'healing' (spiritual, 'energy', and so forth)
  Note my use of single quotes (when I remember) for this unfortunate and much misused term. Notionally, 'healing' is the strengthening, 'un-distorting' and balancing of a person's non-physical aspects. This includes the resolution of emotional issues (basically the clearance of emotional stresses and traumas that one is carrying — whether they're one's own or belong to parasitic lost souls attached to one) and also the dissolution of beliefs and illusory realities (which all represent distortions and weakenings in one's non-physical aspects).

  However, 'healing' as generally practised is much more vague in its focus, and in fact cultivates harmful beliefs and illusory realities, and causes no end of problems for its practitioners and their clients victims.

  Some of this can occur spontaneously, but generally it requires positive measures on the part of the particular person if a really significant amount of supposed healing is to occur. These measures are primarily not about receiving 'healing' ('hands-on' or 'hands-off') from another person — what's widely but not necessarily correctly regarded as 'spiritual healing' — but are about the person taking charge of his life and making positive changes therein, including using appropriate methods upon himself for strengthening his non-physical aspects and clearing distortions.

  Nowadays I'm doubtful that very much genuine healing occurs at all through use of any sort of 'spiritual' or 'energy' healing, and where it does, it would be an inefficient, relatively ineffective way to achieve anything genuinely beneficial — and the latter outweighed in any case by the harm such 'healing' does.

  The most effective and comprehensive healing strategy / process is thus actually none other than a comprehensive genuine self-actualization one. Indeed, nowadays I myself prefer NOT to think in terms of 'healing' for myself at all apart from physical healing, but rather, think in terms of strengthening and making myself more healthy — simply as aspects of my self-actualization process. I encourage that change of view in other people too.

  I warn that spectacular 'miraculous' physical healings that are claimed by some people, where they've genuinely occurred at all (i.e., aren't just bits of mythology as in the case of the man who after his lifetime got known as Jesus), are SINISTER and to be avoided like the plague! That's because, when they do genuinely occur at all, they can do so ONLY as 'magic' — and so all my warnings about that apply. All the people I've encountered who claim to achieve such things — and that includes so-called psychic surgeons — have particular deep and serious garbage involvement (albeit being unaware of the fact). (Okay, 'ex-garbage' now — see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…).
  

  Indeed, most of them who I've encountered appear actually to be members of the cacoprotean network, and so are effectively part of the garbage themselves, and are thus particularly for avoiding. Such latter people who I've encountered in recent years have included members of a total immersion baptism Christian sect (I can't remember now where they were based) and a spiritualist minister in the Bristol area.

  Vortex Healing, for which some exceptional claims are made, also has this problem, in that its founders and most of the other foremost members of the Vortex Healing 'community' appear to be cacoprotean network members (of course without having any inkling that that's the case).

• healing crisis
  Any of a whole range of troublesome symptoms that come on at some point, in one or more phases, for a considerable proportion of people having some sort of healing either from other people or indeed just carried out as self-healing. The term 'healing crisis' is misleading and reflects an almost universal fundamental misunderstanding of what's really happening.

  It's generally (mis)understood that the symptoms, which may be all sorts of nasty emotional feelings or / and various physical problems, are just a passing necessary side-effect of a very active healing process and thus are to be seen as a very positive sign. Indeed, they're often claimed to be a result of toxins being cleared from the body — a really nasty piece of old-wifery that had come to all manner of 'healers' and psychics from the garbage. A genuine 'energy' healing process wouldn't cause the body to produce any more toxins than normal.

  In reality, what's happening in such situations is that the so-called 'healing' has been ungrounding the person and weakening / distorting the person's non-physical aspects to the point that the garbage had been able to start attacking the person in whatever ways the person's particular weakenings make possible. So, these so-called healing crises are really very serious warning signals, indicating that the particular healing methods are garbage-distorted ones that open people to the garbage, and which need dropping like a hot brick.

  For one thing, all healing methods that use even to the slightest degree the notion of chakras and structures such as the supposed 'third eye' need dropping thus, because they use an illusory reality through which people can awarely or unawarely do each other great harm through 'working on' or indeed outright attacking those actually illusory structures. This is a close parallel to the dangers and great harm that come from having anything to do with the similarly illusory 'Earth energies'.

  A genuine healing / self-actualization process would never itself cause anything like the observed 'healing crises', and indeed would markedly decrease the incidence of garbage attacks (or nowadays, subjective replicas of such attacks — see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…). There can, however, theoretically be a very uncommon situation where a healing process might enable a particular previously hidden physical problem to manifest sooner than it would otherwise have done.

  However, in such cases generally the person would then redirect the healing process to take account of the new development, so this doesn't mean that using any healing methods at all is dangerous. No area of life at all is completely free of risk and adverse factors, and you're much safer actively using healing methods of the sort that I give on this site than you'd be if you sought to 'play safe' and not use any healing methods at all.

 

• hearing voices
  A term crassly and indeed unprofessionally used by the medical and psychiatric professions to 'label' people's experiencing vocal or even 'thought-voice' communications from a non-physical source.

  This is both crass and extremely harmful, because, like placing fig leaves over a person's 'private parts', it hides what's really there. Thus the expression 'hearing voices' is used to label a person as 'ill' (and in a way that's pejorative and frightens ordinary people). I myself hear voices every day — of people! However, that isn't what's universally meant by 'hearing voices'.

  Wouldn't the intelligent way to approach the issue of a person experiencing some sort of voice(s) that aren't from actual humans immediately present be to establish actually what's producing that 'voice' experience and indeed what's seeking to communicate to the person? — Surely so? — But no, the medical and psychiatric professions would have nothing of such intelligence! Instead they say Oh, you're hearing voices, then! — Right, now please take this medication…

  — And so the actual source of the non-physical communications is never investigated because those communications are never recognised as real communications at all, the professionals' rationality completely stalling on that magic 'fig leaf' term, 'hearing voices'.

  So, next time I hear Unexpected item in bagging area! or I open my front door and hear a voice saying to me Cornerstone Maintenance — I've come to fix your window, I should ignore them and take some yum-yum Haloperidol instead?

  — No? — Well, then, what was so different about my 'hearing' thought-voices in 2004, which clearly were not me, and indeed were instructing me to do a whole lot of things that defied my own common sense and thus couldn't reasonably be said to be 'from me'?

  Just as something very specific announces about unexpected item in bagging area for a specific reason and requiring specific action, so non-physical communications each likewise have their own respective source and cause, and require specific action — albeit such action definitely not including the following of any instructions that have been given in such communications.

  Until you have at least a reasonable idea of the nature of that source there's no possibility at all of your actually stopping those communications if they're unhelpful (as indeed they always are, even if one likes them!).

  If I had my way, it would be made a disciplinary matter if not an actual criminal offence for healthcare and psychiatric professionals to call non-physical communications 'hearing voices' and then to go drugging affected people instead of assisting them towards addressing the real problem.

  All my own experience and observations point to there being broadly only one source of any sort of inner communications that people actually notice as such, whether or not those communications are actually vocal / verbal in nature — and that source is the garbage)*. That's so, regardless of whether the communications appear to be coming from 'astral beings', 'spirits', 'demons', 'guides', 'ascended masters', 'angels', 'gods / goddesses', 'Jesus' / 'God' / 'the Holy Spirit', deceased relatives, or any sort of supposed extra-terrestrial, or indeed supposed telepathic communications from other people or supposed physical extra-terrestrials.

  * However, please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

• Heaven / 'paradise' (i.e., non-physical)
  Not at all what people almost universally believe! No matter whether it's the Heaven of the Judeo-Christian religions or any other sort of non-physical 'paradise', such experiences, including those experienced in near-death experiences, are just one particular part of the range of HELL experiences!!

  That is for exactly the same reason that 'angels', 'Jesus' or 'God' are just different faces that the garbage would show people in its whole menagerie of illusory non-physical beings — those supposedly 'higher' or 'divine' beings thus being fundamentally just the same as supposed 'demons' and 'Satan', and ultimately no more beneficial.

  'Heaven' experiences undoubtedly seem unimaginably wonderful to those who experience them, BUT they are seriously insidious, drawing the person into attachment to a particular type of astral realm experience that can trap them when they die. Indeed, before that they'd have a strong distorting and ungrounding effect on the person's life experience, for the person would, at least normally, be longing to get back into that sort of supposed paradise experience.

  However, the mischief doesn't stop there, because in such 'paradises' one inevitably encounters various seemingly immensely wise and loving beings — not at all understanding that those illusory beings have been conjured up within one's awareness by the garbage for a seriously toxic purpose. What those supposed 'higher beings' are all about is to progressively, often very insidiously, train the person into accepting power / control agendas and accepting their supposed lower place in power / status hierarchies. That would be part of the process of loading the person with a (further) layer of soul programming.

  Does that mean that we need to eschew all paradise-type experiences? — No, not at all! The problem is the non-physical ones — including all the drug-induced ones, but also including even physical ones for which one makes it a life pursuit to seek them out.

  I remember a fair number of MUCH healthier and indeed strongly beneficial paradise experiences of mine — especially on some of my Scottish Highlands mountain walks, probably nowhere more than on the relatively low hills of North and South Morar on fine sparkling spring days. It's a truly healthy experience when you accept and enjoy it at the time and just draw a line under it afterwards and continue to enjoy taking the thick with the thin. The concept of a 'treat' loses meaning if you just keep going for that 'treat' because you like it so much. Then it's become just an addiction — a life-degrading ball-and-chain!

  The underlying reality is that you yourself are the real paradise, if anything is at all.
  Thus, for example, on 16 May 1995, when I was having an afternoon eating break sitting on a wild ridge called Sgurr an-t'Sassanaich near Arisaig, South Morar, looking out over the sea to the Cuillin of Skye and other Inner Hebrides islands, with a very localized shower of small hail gracefully trailing on its way to the Cuillin, with a rather distant lazy peal of thunder rolling about all over the place, exploring all the nooks and crannies — and my seemingly having the whole of those wild and craggy South Morar hills to myself that day —, that subjective sheer paradise experience was effectively me perceiving a reflection of myself.

  However, because our underlying true nature is non-dual, just contemplating non-duality cannot itself be recognisable as 'paradise'. On the other hand our self-actualization process does enable us increasingly to see ourselves reflected by Nature and wild places, and thus for our life experiences increasingly to have a more paradise-like quality, regardless of whether we'd notice a specific occasion / location and think of it as a paradise.

  Indeed, from the self-actualized mindset, the very concept of 'paradise' has no useful meaning. 'Paradise' (or 'Heaven') is very much a concept of the un-self-actualized vast majority, who unawarely live quite deprived lives and so are driven to look outside themselves to 'paradise' experiences in futile attempts to make up for the pervasive deficit in their overall life experience.

  We can similarly see our 'paradise' true nature reflected in other people, but of course what happens then for almost everyone is that any hint of that happening gets hijacked by the garbage, which drives one immediately to want to get attached to / entangled with the other person.

  One's stored or connected loneliness feelings are exploited by the garbage to create that sense of desire, longing or craving for the other person — typically making the whole 'love' experience a pretty toxic affair regardless of how it's interpreted or subjectively experienced by the participants, because that attachment is a major obstacle to any self-actualization process of theirs.

 

• hell
  This refers to the real hell experience, out of which the various religions and other 'spiritual' or metaphysical traditions have created their own versions. What all these experiences have in common is that they're illusory displays that would come to particular people through the astral non-reality, and which were inflicted upon the unfortunate individuals by the garbage*, complete with severe attacks with various cocktails of aversive emotional experience — classically terror, but actually there's a whole lot more to it than just that.

  * See Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

  I've established that there are various types of hell experience, each with its own troublesome emotional environment — including terror hells, revulsion hells, disconnection / isolation hells and 'databank' hells (which latter tend also to be accompanied by attack with terror related emotion) — and, in addition, there appear to be at least two distinct 'levels' of hell.

  The basic level is very much of a 'total immersion' experience with no sense of the passing of time, whereas the 'second level' hell experience is more dream-like, in that one is interacting with situations in a sort of 'story line' but the experience has a quality quite different from true dreams or even true nightmares.

  The phenomenon is most readily experienced at night, especially when wanting to get to sleep, and especially in early childhood — terror-type hells then being what's uncomprehendingly labelled 'night terrors' as a supposed medical condition.

  However, hells aren't specifically a nocturnal phenomenon, and in adults who have sufficiently ungrounded their awareness, including those who've been harmed by various drugs including cannabis and a very wide range of psychiatric drugs, the hell experiences can happen by day (then getting mislabelled variously as hallucinations, psychosis, and even a manifestation of schizophrenia — then with still more harmful medication being prescribed to try to stop the manifestations) — though it would generally require one to be lying in repose with one's eyes closed before one could experience the hells fully.

  For more about hells, including first-hand descriptions of actual hell experiences, please see

• Helpfulness Testing (previously called energy testing)
  This term needs always to be capitalized, to help indicate that it isn't just any testing of helpfulness, but is a very specific procedure with a very specific remit.

  The use of any of a wide range of methods that enable one to obtain indications from one's own deepest aspects (NOT any external agency) as to whether a particular thing is or would be 'strengthening' (and thus genuinely beneficial) or 'weakening' for one. The 'thing' that is tested may be an object, a substance, a person, a location, a spatial configuration, a choice that you've made or might make — and so on.

  With the right approach and all due vigilance to keep clear of or at least recognise garbage-sourced interference in the Helpfulness Testing process, you can Helpfulness-Test virtually anything that could have a helpful or unhelpful effect in your life — i.e., with regard to real, genuine needs rather than superficial 'wants'.

  The original term I used for this procedure was 'energy testing', and it took me till late 2019 finally to bite the bullet and use a term that wouldn't be misleading or ambiguous. I always regarded the use of the word 'energy' as unfortunate, because it was based on the actually harmfully misleading notion of there being non-physical 'energies'. On the face of it, 'resonance testing' would have been a much more helpful and less misleading term, but I held off from using that because then almost no-one would have any idea what I was on about, and at least 'energy testing', would give a fair number of people some sort of idea of what the procedure is about, just through the term's being more familiar to them.

  The other trouble about the term 'energy testing' has always been that a high proportion of people, although getting a vague idea of what my 'energy testing' was supposed to do, still carried extremely unhelpful notions of its true nature and aims, not only because of use of the word 'energy' but because various 'spirituality-heads' and New-Agers are already familiar with various procedures called 'energy testing', practised and taught by various 'healers', spiritual teachers and so forth — all of which are really only forms of dowsing or channelling and are thus seriously harmful, at least in the longer run.

  Some Helpfulness Testing methods are effectively the same as ones used in so-called kinesiology (then usually referred to as 'muscle testing'), but the 'kinesiology' approach generally is fully open to garbage-sourced control, so it's important to clearly distinguish between Helpfulness Testing (as I define it on this site) and what's done in the name of 'kinesiology' (actually a misuse of that term anyway when applied to what particular therapists and practitioners are doing).
  

  As it happens, some people refer to so-called kinesiology (i.e., the term as misused by people with spiritual / metaphysical leanings) as 'energy testing', which was confusing things considerably while this procedure of mine was called 'energy testing'. People need, therefore, to understand that 'Helpfulness Testing' as defined on this site as a genuine self-actualization aid is quite different, even if apparently only subtly so, from what's described as 'energy testing' or indeed 'Helpfulness Testing' almost everywhere else.

• higher consciousness / higher self
  An actually fictitious concept, currently much associated with the New Age movement, of a 'higher' part of a person's consciousness that's claimed to be separated off into a higher 'dimension' of reality — traditionally claimed to be the 5th dimension — because its 'vibration rate' is supposedly too high for it to be integrated with the rest of the person in the physical 'dimension'.

  This concept (and indeed that of supposed non-physical 'vibration rates') is very much associated with the New Age movement, and is an extremely sneaky and harmful deception that countless people have channelled — of course unwittingly from the garbage.

  I thus never nowadays talk of a person's 'higher consciousness' or 'higher self', but instead talk of a person's deepest aspects.

  The crucial practical difference between use of either term is that when you work with your deepest aspects you're furthering your self-actualization and helping to strengthen yourself against left-over effects of the garbage, whereas if you're seeking assistance or communications from, or are in any way working with a 'higher consciousness' / 'higher self', or indeed anything seemingly external at all, what you're actually working with is the garbage, because you're then ignoring your own deepest aspects and just channelling!

  Instead of getting supposed assistance and 'information' from, say, Archangel Michael or Melchizedek (just illusions created in your mindspace by the left-over effects of the garbage), you're getting supposed assistance and 'information' from what you take to be your 'higher consciousness' (still just another illusion created in your mindspace by the garbage left-over patterns). Big deal!

 

• human-type being
  I use that expression only when referring to 'humans' throughout the Universe or indeed all of 'Existence', rather than just here on Earth. That is to avoid encouraging people to imagine that what are functionally humans are necessarily what people here on Earth would recognise as the biological 'human being', Homo sapiens. Indeed, because evolution follows its own pathways independently on each planet, in practical terms it's just not possible for the same biological species to exist on more than one planet.

  Because I think of humans in functional rather than biological terms, to me all 'human-type' beings are simply humans on different planets and therefore (incidentally) with biological differences. There would generally be a lot of similarities, though, because organisms tend to develop similar shape and structure on any planet to fill equivalent ecological niches — though their evolutionary pathways could have been very different.

 

• illusion / illusory
  Something perceived or experienced as apparently 'real' but which is actually not a component of 'What Is' apart from as an illusion. — Yes, I know that this sounds rather circular, but there's a general difficulty about understanding the nature of 'illusion'.

  What I'm calling 'illusion' lacks the constancy and 'universal consistency' right across different people's life experience that 'What Is' at least potentially presents, so that illusion is something superimposed upon 'What Is', and can be dissolved, whereas 'What Is' can't be dissolved and indeed is increasingly revealed as one works to dissolve illusions.

 

• illusory reality
  This may be loosely talked of as being the same thing as a belief, except that the majority of illusory realities that we carry are covert. That is, we don't recognise that they're other than 'reality' itself — and indeed we aren't consciously aware at all of the majority of them that we're carrying, so that the person carrying them generally wouldn't recognise any of them as beliefs. I find it most helpful to regard beliefs as being the 'tangible' or conscious manifestations of particular illusory realities that one is carrying.

  According to my understanding, each illusory reality works as a sort of filter that in some degree distorts the person's perception of the reality of 'What Is' and thus makes it more of a subjective rather than objective experience. It's rather like a layer that you might apply to an image to modify it in some way in a photo editing program like Photoshop.

  If we have the motivation to do so, we can dissolve illusory realities that we're carrying, and so bring about potentially huge positive changes in our life experience and outlook. The methods are presented on this site, and are simple and down-to-earth.

• implant
  A purported non-physical 'object' that has been 'implanted' into a person's non-physical aspects, generally by a purported 'entity' or 'alien'. Typically, psychics 'see' such implants as being shaped like various types of crystal, though one reported 'donut shaped' ones in my own 'energy system'.

  However, this is yet another case of the various 'healers' and psychics having been shown what the garbage chose for them to be shown, and not seeing what's actually there (i.e., if anything!). For a start, there's only one way that there can be a non-physical object having a shape — and that is if it's just yet another astral illusion! So, sightings of these supposed implants, if they represent anything at all, at least do NOT honestly inform us as to what's actually there.

  There does appear to be an untoward phenomenon that may correspond with some or indeed most 'implant sightings': certain localized distortions (actually not visible) in a person's non-physical aspects ('energy system') created by the garbage in certain circumstances — usually when it has the person's awareness seriously ungrounded and 'within' an astral realm in which the person has an encounter with supposed entities or 'aliens'.

  Also, certain 'healers' and 'psychic surgeons' actually create supposed 'energy' implants in people's non-physical aspects for healing purposes — having no inkling that they're actually being used by the garbage, and what they believe are very temporary healing devices are actually usually much more persistent and have various harmful effects that render the person more open and vulnerable to garbage-sourced interferences, and in the past could indeed make the person very much more open to being covertly added to the cacoprotean network.

  My understanding nowadays, at least from a healing / self-actualization perspective, is that ALL non-physical 'implants' are most helpfully regarded and responded to as particular types of illusory reality. This is particularly true for anyone using the current version of my methodology (which is firmly based in alignment of one's conscious intent, and uses no external aid of any kind), so to dissolve a supposed 'implant' you simply use the Grounding Point procedure to dissolve the illusory reality that's manifesting for you as a supposed 'implant'. That simplifies things a lot!

 

• incarnational thread
  A term I've coined for a succession of incarnations from one micro-aspect of the underlying fundamental consciousness. It can be compared with a string of beads placed along a 'time' axis, in which each bead represents a successive incarnation.

  This can seem confusing in the light of my describing no-soul reincarnation as being non-sequential, but the point here is that those are still sequential in a particular way, but only from the viewpoint of deeper consciousness, not from the viewpoint of our dualistic 'ordinary minds'.

 

• inner child
  A fictional concept, 'kindly' given by the garbage to many people in healing / paganistic / mystical / New Age circles in order to keep them firmly pointed away from their genuine true nature, and to render any attempts of theirs towards self-healing / self-actualization to be largely or completely ineffective. This concept, therefore is POISONOUS and needs dropping like a red-hot brick (hopefully not on one's toes!).

  Nobody is a vulnerable 'child' inside, even though they may feel as though they are (in which case they need to dissolve the illusory reality that they're carrying, which gives them that impression). What each of us needs to open up and uncover (not 'heal', because it never needs healing) is our own deepest aspects — and that's something VERY different, opening up our own intrinsic invulnerability instead!

 

• inner inquiry
  A process of obtaining normally unavailable information from one's deepest aspects, as distinct from any external-seeming source. This does NOT include any sort of interrogation of your supposed 'higher self' or 'higher consciousness', for the latter is a bogus concept that has come to us from the garbage because, when we do try to interrogate that purported but actually non-existent 'higher consciousness', what we're actually doing is straightforward channelling, which means that we're getting communications NOT from our deepest aspects but from the garbage.

  To avoid garbage interference, genuine inner inquiry has to be carried out very rigorously and vigilantly, using one or more Helpfulness Testing methods. That means that you can't simply ask yourself questions, because if you do, it's the garbage that answers, drowning out the much more subtle impressions that would be coming from your own deepest aspects.

  Also, much of the sort of information that people get by channelling can't usefully be gained through inner inquiry — though actually, that sort of 'information' is needed like a hole in the head because, if given, it could only be garbage-sourced, so it's no loss to us at all to be no longer hankering after endearing convolutions of misinformation, such as all the sordid details of my lifetimes as Jesus, Attila the Hun, Queen Boadicea and the secret 'mistress' of Pope Pius the Six Hundred and Sixty Sixth!

  Please note that the inquiry process of using The Work would also very definitely count as 'inner inquiry', but is quite different from what I'm generally calling 'inner inquiry' in my writings. Generally, when I'm talking about The Work I'd refer to its procedures as 'inquiry' rather than 'inner inquiry', just in order to avoid confusion, but strictly they're both different types of inner inquiry.

  I explain how, with great care and vigilance, you can carry out inner inquiry, in
  Helpfulness Testing — Means for Secure Inner Inquiry — A Brief Guide.

 

• intuition
  A widely misunderstood phenomenon, intuition is the gaining of insights or notions that arise unbidden in one's awareness, and appear not to be part of one's thinking process.

  In fact what generally gets recognised as 'intuition' can have various sources and causes, and it's not possible for most people to tell what any of those may be on any specific occasion, so it ALWAYS needs treating with at least some circumspection, and never accepting without at least some question.

  For an exceptionally well-functioning human (i.e., no-soul, and well advanced in one's self-actualization), a high proportion of intuitions can come from one's own deepest aspects, though that depends on whether the person has cultivated a strong inner communication / facilitation pathway between one's 'ordinary mind' and deepest aspects. That type of intuition is intrinsically beneficial in intent, and often extremely valuable, but still isn't necessarily correct, so needs careful assessment, and needs to take its place always as a possible direction-pointer for their thinking and possible actions relating to the content of the respective intuitions. Helpfulness Testing can usually give a good idea as to whether any particular intuition is worth taking on board or at least investigating.

  Other intuitions need particular circumspection or indeed complete disregard, but in order not to throw any babies out with the bathwater, the commonsense approach to ALL intuitions is to regard them as possibly useful pointers to check out if it looks as though that could be pointing in a useful (i.e., genuinely beneficial) direction. Many intuitions are actually unhelpful and can lead one into serious problems if taken at face value.

  Many people with 'spirituality' leanings believe that it's important to use intuition and little or no rational thinking in one's everyday life. Those people are deeply, seriously, lost, and are far-removed from functioning as genuine humans and serving significant positive purpose in the community. They are largely out of touch with their own deepest aspects, so that their intuitions are all of the sort that needs very great circumspection. Rational thinking is in the core essence of incarnated Humanity, but is largely blocked in the 'spirituality and meditation-heads'.

 

• irrationality
  The inability to think logically and flexibly — which implies the inability to apply much awareness to one's thinking. Irrational thinking is pattern-constrained, and easily gets distorted by the person's emotional feelings and outlook and so leads to repetitive 'pattern', rigid responses to situations — thus making it impossible to respond in genuinely appropriate and constructive ways to what's different or unique in each individual situation.

  Beliefs and illusory realities are very much tied up with irrationality — the person failing to see or understand what's really there and responding instead to what his particular batch of illusory realities tells him is there or is happening.

  However, I've belatedly recognised that there's a more fundamental cause for at least our major irrationalities — a faulty data cache that holds particular intents, aspirations and hopes. It had been failing to delete held items after a few days of non-use as was needed, so causing fixations, obsessions, entrenched attitudes, and a pervasive tendency towards attachment in any and all aspects of one's life.

  See also rationality.

• karma
  One's accumulation of distortions to one's non-physical aspects that have been caused by any facet of life experience, whether in this lifetime or in any previous lifetimes within a karmic sequence of soul reincarnations.

  This definition of karma is at very considerable variance to all the popular versions of the concept (very much including the Buddhist version), which all have one thing in common — that they're gross distortions of the actual situation, which have been put into various 'spiritual', mystical and paganistic traditions by the garbage in order that people can then be terrorized and manipulated or controlled through fear of various sorts of 'karma' as a retributive force.

  In fact karma has NOTHING directly to do with judgements of 'right' and 'wrong' — except that if you make choices or take actions that are harmful for other people, that would have a 'weakening' and to greater or lesser extent distorting influence upon your non-physical aspects and so would add to your accumulation of karmas in the genuine sense, which would tend to lead to a less happy life and increased physical problems over time.

  A karmic sequence of reincarnations (the normal, dysfunctional, situation) thus is a sequence in which karmas accumulated in any one lifetime are passed on to the next, because they're stored in the soul programming, so each successive incarnation becomes more loaded with karmas.

  This is the situation with regard to soul reincarnations, which are chronologically sequential, whereas no-soul incarnations are non-sequential and non-karmic (i.e., they each carry no karmas from any previous lifetime of the particular individual).

  For more about the karma concept, please see

• kinesiology
  In proper usage of this term, to quote from the relevant entry in Wikipedia, Kinesiology is the study of human and animal movement, performance, and function by applying the sciences of biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, psychology, and neuroscience.

  It's a completely secure and 'proper' science (i.e., as far as any of our science can be described thus). I do have cause to qualify that, though, in that actually psychology has at best a very weakly based claim to be a genuine science, and overall I regard it more as a pseudo-science itself. Therefore, any psychology aspect of kinesiology is liable to be off-beam and best avoided — though that would depend on the nature of the psychology involvement.

  Unfortunately the New Age 'movement' has got in on the act and is using the term to mean using involuntary physical responses of some part of the body in response to some sort of interrogation to gain hidden 'information' of some sort or other.

  Such methods, when used with rigour and the right understanding and deep awareness, can be the basis of Helpfulness Testing, but almost universally they're effectively just particular means of dowsing, with all the problems that that brings. So, if you encounter a therapist who claims to practise kinesiology, you need to be aware that, despite the scientific-sounding name of the particular practice or procedure or therapy, it has NO special scientific background and is likely to compound rather than resolve any problems of yours, at least in the long term.

  It's typical of the New Age confusion, that a science-related term is hijacked and used for something that's nothing to do with the proper meaning of the word, nor with science, and which is a potentially extremely troublesome means of being interfered with and indeed controlled by the garbage, or at least by left-over patterns mimicking it (see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…).

 

• knowing
  Awareness that something is true, with a subjective sense of certainty.

  That is a nonsensical concept, because the most you can ever 'know' about anything is that it currently appears to you to exist or be true. — So, if it seems to you that you do definitely 'know' something, rather than just believe it (regardless of what is genuinely true), then you're deceiving yourself with a belief masquerading as 'knowing' or 'knowledge'.

  On the odd occasion when I've made this point in the course of a moment of discussion with more open-minded religious people, typically they've sought to get round that point by claiming that, yes, 'knowing' with the mind might be self deception, but there's also 'knowing from the heart' or 'inner [or deep] knowing'. — Wow! So, those individuals imagine that because they feel strongly that something is true, it's true!

  No, all they're doing is dishing up another piece of belief and pretending it's real knowing or real knowledge! — The 'reality' (sic) is that if one is convinced that anything objectively exists or is true, then one is simply believing that it exists or is true, and trying to give respectability to that belief by saying, no, it's not belief at all, but a real knowing from the heart (or a deep conviction / certainty / faith).

  In practice, of course, in everyday life we all use the verb 'to know' more loosely as well, and that does serve a useful function as a shorthand for something like 'this is how it currently appears to me / us to be'. But clearly, this can and does lead to a well-nigh universal confusion, in which people fail to understand the real and important distinction between using a working assumption (what we need to be doing) and being stuck in a belief in something (what we need like a hole in the head, because it's always self-deception and greatly restricts one's ability to function in any rational and genuinely useful manner).

 

• kundalini
  A particular part or aspect of the human 'energy system', which itself is a schematic and indeed illusory representation of how consciousness / awareness functions to produce our life experience. Kundalini is supposed to be an 'energy', which is firmly locked up at the base of the spine in ordinary people and needs to be released from there so that it can rise through one's supposed 'energy system' to achieve a properly balanced 'energy' state in a process of 'self-realization'.

  According to received 'wisdom', if the kundalini is unlocked / 'awakened' prematurely or rises too rapidly, the person gets seriously ungrounded and has major problems, so, purportedly, kundalini-awakening practices should be used only by advanced adepts who are energetically ready for that happening — though according to my own understanding such practices ALL need to be avoided like the plague by EVERYONE, for a very good reason that I shall now explain.

  Undoubtedly, a good number of people who do purported kundalini practices do run into serious ungroundedness problems (i.e., this isn't just hearsay) — I've known a fair number myself, in addition to reading masses of reports of such effects from victims of supposedly kundalini-awakening practices and therapies.

  However, NONE of that is genuine evidence that kundalini ('energy') itself objectively exists. At best the concepts like 'kundalini' are merely a pretty poor attempt at a schematic working model to try to explain what actually can't be explained nor objectively described — i.e., the 'mechanisms' of apparently incarnated consciousness.

  Within my own experience-based working model, free from all belief systems and 'received wisdoms', it's actually harmful to think at all in terms of 'kundalini', because to do so reinforces the illusory realities in which it appears to exist and can thus cause problems for people — and it also reinforces the illusory realities in which there's a structured human 'energy system' of any kind — all of which have come to us from the garbage to cause us major problems.

  Undoubtedly we have what can reasonably be (still figuratively) described as blocks and locked-up aspects of our functioning (though actually they wouldn't be physically located), and these need to be cleared to enable a freeing-up of more of one's awareness and 'consciousness energy'.

  However, as so many people have found out the hard way, trying to address those directly, trying to force them without running the necessary comprehensive self-actualization process that would achieve such unlocking and opening up in a natural gradual and harmless way, greatly unbalances the system and causes major problems. Generally the problems that are additional to those directly caused by weak grounding are various types of garbage interference that have been enabled by that weakness of grounding.

• light / Light (non-physical / metaphysical)
  Widely believed in and indeed even 'seen' by psychics, 'healers', mystics and so on, this is actually a mythical / illusory concept, which has been cultivated in people universally by the garbage, so that they believe that there's a non-physical or metaphysical polarity of 'light' and 'dark', 'good' and 'evil', and 'positive' and 'negative'.

  This is all bogus and helps prevent people from properly looking to see what's really there — and, in particular, it prevents people from recognising that their true nature is NOT 'light', nor 'Light', but, if it must be described in a single word, it can be said to be clarity.

  Thus, when a psychic believes that he is communing with some non-physical being who is claimed to be 'of the Light', what that really means is that that being is of the garbage — because both 'dark' and 'light' / 'Light' are of the garbage! — And of course that 'being' is illusory anyway and so for completely disregarding and indeed dissolving.

 

• lightworker
  

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  A term much used in the New Age movement to signify a 'healer' of some sort who actively works in some way 'for the Light' — bringing about healing, 'spiritual opening up' and supposedly countering 'dark' or 'negative' influences, on a larger scale than just individual healings. Indeed, many 'lightworkers' see their role as global or indeed 'universal' in scale, and many are involved with furthering the actually illusory scenario of human 'ascension' on a global scale.

  However, All that glisters isn't gold, and I found out the hard way that so-called lightworkers are ALL being deceived and led by various illusory manifestations of the garbage (generally posing as higher beings or/and extra-terrestrials), so that while their intentions may often (but definitely not always) be benevolent, what they're actually doing is increasing the ungroundedness and vulnerability to the garbage of large numbers of people. Indeed, many 'lightworkers' appear to be actually part of the cacoprotean network and thus actually to be unwitting 'recruitment agents' for that network. Thus, for 'lightworker', read 'covert worker for the garbage'.

  Such individuals are generally being guided and controlled by the aforementioned network (via illusory manifestations or 'higher beings' or 'aliens') into using a range of psychic attack strategies to destroy (mentally wreck or outright kill) individuals who are perceived to be a threat to the network's agenda of control of all human (-type) beings in the whole of 'Existence'. Some may be completely unaware of the harmfulness of what they're doing, while others are definitely aware of that, albeit trying to cover up all the time and pretend that their work is for everyone's 'higher good'.

  Because of this inherent deceit in use of the term 'lightworker', I aim to use it always in single quotes, to remind the reader that it's a covertly deceitful term, and not one that I myself would ever mean to use at face value.

  You can read about my own salutary experiences with 'lightworkers' (note particularly the 'lightworkers' GH, MC, DZ and GW, the latter calling himself Shabdan) in

• loneliness
  An extremely widely misinterpreted and misunderstood emotional state, in which, when it's directly experienced, the person is longing or craving for company or / and absence of solitude. It's the primary emotional 'force' that drives people into forming close relationships regardless of whether or not such relationships are a genuine need or would be beneficial for them. It also underlies a big proportion of people's social habits and 'sheep' behaviours. They behave in those ways to avoid feeling the loneliness they're carrying.

  Typically, people don't recognise their loneliness at all for what it really is, for it's actually just a distorted way of perceiving a subjective inner sense of 'lack' caused by occlusion or blocking-off of their deepest aspects from their conscious, conceptual 'mind'. Because they're unaware of the real cause of their sense of a lack in their life, they look to external sources to try to fill that gap in their life experience — using for that purpose other people and also often animals, and, very widely, imaginary / illusory beings / presences such as 'God', 'Jesus', Allah, and so forth.

  Or, they achieve that more subtly through various spiritual traditions based on meditation, where their 'company' is a 'cocoon' of illusory realities created by regular meditation, in which awareness of the particular issues is dulled by that mental 'cocooning' — so that they're living pallid shadows of the sort of life they'd be living if they actually dissolved instead of hiding their main issues.

  The basic need, then, for ALL people, is to progressively dissolve the blockages in their non-physical aspects, which obstruct free communication between one's deepest aspects and one's 'mind'. Achieving that, and so at long last being in peace and harmony with one's own company, and no longer subject to loneliness, is easily brought about over time by ongoing use of methods presented on this site.

• love
  A delight in all aspects of the life experience, which is intrinsic and natural for ALL people. Naturally that includes a delight in all other people and living things. It's based in deep awareness and becomes increasingly manifested during one's genuine self-actualization process. Genuine love is based in objectivity, whereas what the vast majority of people identify as 'love' is based in subjective feelings and generally obscures the underlying genuine love.

  This is clearly light years away from the normal use of the word 'love', which is based in unawareness and is actually little or nothing about genuine love, and to a lesser or usually very great degree it's about attachment, desire, self-gratification, manipulation and power / control agendas.

  For a fuller explanation please see
  Love is not what nearly all people believe.

 

• macro-attack
  A new term, that I coined in late 2017. Please see attack.

 

• magic / magick
  Please see special powers.

 

• materialist-reductionist belief system
  The materialist-reductionist belief system — also called materialistic reductionism and reductionistic materialism — is based on the primary belief that the only 'reality' is the physical one, and that everything else that anyone experiences isn't 'real' (and thus at least implicitly is unimportant) or/and can be completely explained by reference to observable physical factors and 'scientifically' measurable parameters only — the nature of experience itself being dismissed as 'not real' apart from its allegedly being the product of chemical reactions in the brain.

  For a simple explanation of how crass that belief system is, please see:
  On the nature of reality and truth — Too simple to believe! :-).

  Please see the following for personal experiences of mine that show how monumentally wide of the mark are those who embrace the materialist reductionist belief system, such as most who regard themselves as scientists, and medics and particularly the whole gamut of psychiatry / 'mental health' professions:

• meditation
  In its usual meaning, this is the practice of focusing one's awareness in the present moment, peacefully observing all that one is experiencing, without significantly interacting with any of it. Normally this is done in formal sitting sessions, though in some traditions walking meditations are additionally practised, though such walking meditations generally involve just gentle walking 'around the block' and not actually going out for a proper walk or hike.

  There are all sorts of variants of the practice according to how one focuses one's mind, and in various Eastern traditions such as Vajrayana Buddhism a whole range of active visualization practices (which I recognise as extremely harmful 'dark' practices even though they're presented as supposedly extremely beneficial), get included in the term 'meditation', albeit supposedly being for 'adepts' only.

  Unfortunately, even just plain sitting meditation has a seriously harmful side of its effects — insidiously so, because so many people believe they're benefiting greatly from their regular meditation and fail to recognise at all what's really happening to them at a deeper level:

  • We have the ungrounding effect of meditating in that sort of way, cultivating a state of disengagement with what one is experiencing, and thus a weakening of one's experience of the physical 'reality', and making them more open to the astral non-reality and interference / attacks from the garbage*.

    * Please see Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense….

  • One is correspondingly cultivating a seriously unbalanced mental state (i.e., in addition to the unbalance of weak groundedness), in withdrawing from interacting with what one experiences; one trains oneself to observe in lieu of engagement.

    Hence people who've done a lot of meditation generally develop a certain calmness and composure, which is clearly identifiable to a sufficiently deeply aware person as the result of doing a lot of meditation, rather than developing the more vibrant, motivated and spontaneous character of those who don't include such meditation in their self-actualization methodology. They're more likely to accept whatever comes to them in life, and much less likely to actively seek to make positive changes, where they're faced with adverse aspects of their life experience.

    They're training themselves to focus just on their own supposed wellbeing (misidentified as their degree of peacefulness and contentment) in the belief that the problems 'out there' are not their business — failing to understand that, in sensible and appropriate ways, helping to make the world around them a better place for others is also making it a better place for oneself, and is a crucial aspect of one's underlying life purpose and life task(s).

  • Such meditators are actually creating for themselves a cocooning, 'comfort zone' illusory reality (what I often refer to as a 'comforting cocoon of self-deception')*, in which it appears to them that they're clearing out all their significant emotional issues or 'finding happiness' or 'finding enlightenment', whereas the reality is that the illusory reality they're cultivating is actually hiding their more deeply-seated issues so that those issues will most likely never be resolved. Yet those issues would still be causing distortion and limitation of the person's ability for self-actualization and genuine clear-mindedness, so they do still need to be resolved and cleared from one's system.

    * Indeed, this is basically the same effect as people widely get at least to some extent from any addiction — the nearest equivalent I'm aware of being ongoing use of cannabis. Both meditation and cannabis use have an almost identical effect in crippling one's ability to live as fully functional humans, and making them relatively useless, if in a way endearing, 'spirituality / meditation / cannabis zombies' — though cannabis does have additional mentally crippling effects.

    Generally speaking I can distinguish at a glance between people who are just meditation-crippled and those who are additionally crippled by cannabis (and indeed addiction to surfing). Where there's meditation only, the person simply has an exaggerated peaceful composure, and often comes across as somewhat aloof and quietly supercilious, whereas anyone on cannabis or surfing has an additional 'fuzziness' that I can 'see' at once (my deeper aspects giving me that impression to indicate a particular type of confused and unmotivated mental dysfunction).

    I cannot distinguish between cannabis and surfing damage because it's so similar, though usually surfing devotees are more dynamic and engaging, albeit in a limited way, largely limited to getting the next 'buzz' or 'kick' out of their life rather than progressing in their own self-actualization process or benefiting the community.

  • Overall, such individuals come to be living greatly diminished lives, lacking the healthy variety and invigoration they'd be getting from the proper, proactive type of mindfulness they all really need — wants and needs being not at all the same! To various extents they each become increasingly out of touch with their genuine human emotions and feelings, and still further diverted from their underlying life purpose and life task(s).

    Many of those people have a sense of personal superiority for their composure and laissez-faire outlook on other people's troublesome behaviours, and, for example, look down on more vibrant and spontaneous people as somehow ignorant and immature, and so (normally quietly) dismiss me and my work presented on this site, with no data — only 'teachings' and other 'received wisdoms', and their sense of their own personal superiority — to support their stance. That's just one of many dysfunctional effects of their cocoon of self-deception.

  The self-actualization methodology presented on this site doesn't include sitting meditation, but actually the use of these methods generally can function as a healthy sort of 'meditation' in addition to their nominal functions, if one simply cultivates the mental discipline of being peaceful observer at ALL times, while getting on with everyday life in joyfully proactive and constructive ways.

  That way, being peaceful observer isn't an alternative to engagement in a very active and creative life, but rather, it enables you to apply awareness and rationality (i.e., objectivity) to all situations, and thus to engage in more rational and constructive ways with 'whatever life throws at you', without any need or cause to withdraw into the cocoon of unawareness that ongoing formal sitting meditation generally does for its practitioners.

  Caution!
  It's necessary to completely disregard claims (which have often been put to me in the past) that the problems I relate about meditation are caused by doing it without ongoing guidance from a 'qualified' guru / teacher — a real 'urban' myth!

  Those gurus / teachers, regardless of any qualification, and no matter how revered they may be, are themselves already damaged addicts, simply seeking to spread the contagion of their addiction, so the most they can do for you is to enable you to brain-damage yourself more effectively! — Why not 'get a life' and use your brain and cultivate genuinely rational thinking instead, under your own vibrant self-command?!

• mind
  One of the world's best kept secrets (except in the vicinity of some enlightened people) is that there's no such thing as a 'mind'! — Yes, in reality we each have nothing that can be defined as 'mind'!

  'The mind', thus, is actually an illusion — indeed a delusion — that's carried by people who aren't genuinely enlightened and so perceive themselves at least to a considerable degree as each being a body with a thing called 'the mind', which latter holds the 'I' identity. Such people are unable to recognise, at least by direct perception, that their true nature is actually consciousness or awareness, which nobody in all of 'Existence' can properly define or describe, and that there's no discrete thing within it that can be labelled as 'mind'.

  Thus, when I myself talk of the mind, as long as I remember to do so I put that word in single quotes to indicate that I'm using it figuratively, to cover what is actually a particular delusion — albeit a very normal one. Generally, however, I prefer to talk of one's 'mindspace' rather than 'mind'.

• mindfulness
  A term coming from Buddhism, referring to a notionally very healthy peaceful state of mind in which one's attention is in the present moment, so that one is the peaceful observer of everything one experiences, including all one's thoughts and feelings. The problem with this is that it's only about half of the mental state that we really need to cultivate. That's why I myself don't engage with the 'mindfulness' concept as widely (mis)understood, even though I'd appear to many people to be cultivating it under a different name (clear-mindedness).

  That deficiency arises because 'mindfulness' as generally understood is meditation-based, so one is actually cultivating a harmfully unbalanced state, which is particularly insidious, because people widely believe they're benefiting from it — which indeed they are in a way, but also they're cultivating too rarefied and ungrounded mental functioning, involving an unhealthy over-disengagement from what's going on in one's surroundings — a relatively passive state that greatly limits their mental functioning and ability to make the most out of the life experience.

  Clear-mindedness — the healthy, complete version of mindfulness (you could call it proactive mindfulness or simply mental clarity) — has a balance of attention between present, past, and awareness of likely future consequences of things one is observing. Sure, the core of attention is on 'present', but a much fuller and broader perspective is gained, than what you could get from what is generally being called 'mindfulness'. This enables you to live much more proactively and not only to get a lot more out of life but to be a much more positive force for others.

  The whole methodology presented on this site enables you to develop and cultivate that proper mindfulness, which is inevitably also the ultimate mental health, which makes a laughing stock of what is generally called 'mental health'.

  I comment further on 'mindfulness' in:
  Crisis emergency self-help — Life upturn the SMART way,
  and more generally about the whole 'meditation' / 'mindfulness' mindset, in:
  Dissolving the ego — Why one could never achieve that aim.

 

• mindspace
  This is a term of my own, which I use as a less misleading alternative to 'mind', to signify in a figurative way the particular aspect of awareness within which one perceives and experiences things and consciously thinks. Although it's not clearly demarcated in any obvious way, in functional terms it does fancifully correspond with the 'desktop' on a present-day computer display. It's usefully seen, then, as a working area in which you experience things and can consciously manipulate things and figure things out — even though it itself isn't a 'thing' that you could define or describe in any objective way.

• miracle
  Please see special powers.

 

• morality
  An outlook and code of supposedly 'good' behaviour based on externally sourced rules of social and interpersonal engagement. Generally 'morality' is defined for a person by a particular social or/and religious convention.

  Much promoted and indeed enforced by religions, in some cases with great cruelty and brutality, morality is garbage-sourced control agenda through and through, and denies any opportunity for genuinely loving, aware and considerate behaviour between people. The problem with morality is that it's rule based. Rules are asses, idiots! They're rigid, and are applied to people in order to deny them the opportunity to respond awarely in truly appropriate ways to all the various situations in everyday life.

  Morality denies the intrinsic flexible positivity and 'goodness' of each person and seeks to replace it with rigidity and restrictiveness, so further obscuring it, thus turning people into puppets rather than genuine human beings. There's nothing positive, loving or intelligent in a rigid 'Thou shalt not kill!" rule, for example, because it blocks people from actually thinking carefully about any situation where a killing is an apparent option or indeed could be an actual need. This leads to all manner of stupid, distorted and harmful choices in dealing with actual life situations.

  What is needed to replace 'morality' is actual clear-mindedness, in which people's flexible and deeply aware intrinsic 'goodness' (greatly at variance with the rigid supposed 'goodness' imposed by 'morality') is free to inform and direct their choices in their everyday life.

 

• negative
  A label of convenience put upon certain things, experiences or indeed concepts, to indicate some degree of personal aversion to or disapproval of them, and that they point away from constructiveness and happiness in one's life. However, as with 'bad' or 'evil', nothing is intrinsically negative — 'negative' is just a label. For this reason the term is best replaced with other terms that are more objectively descriptive, or simply not to be used at all except in mathematics, where it has a precise and objective meaning.

  A particular down-side of using the word 'negative' or 'negativity' is that it forms one end of one of the polarities that the garbage has cultivated in people's mindspace. It gets us believing in the polarities of good vs bad / evil, light / Light vs dark (i.e., in non-physical or metaphysical terms) and also positive vs negative — as though these terms indicated intrinsic attributes of things.

  This is all part of the agenda of the garbage* to cultivate a distorted, highly subjective experience of 'What Is', so maintaining illusory realities in our mindspace. Those illusory realities can then be used by the garbage to manipulate and control us in various ways, and they're a block to one's self-actualization process.

• no-soul
  A no-soul person is one who is a direct incarnation of fundamental consciousness, with no soul programming to limit the extent and 'depth' of his awareness. Such people are relatively rare, and are generally difficult for 'normal' people to understand because of their greater inner freedom and their not being hidebound by the normal run of self-limiting illusory realities and beliefs — so that their outlook and behaviour is distinctly more authentic than is the case with 'normal' people, for whom 'appropriateness' rules the show.

  No-soul people are quite rare enough, but a minority of those have a still greater significance, for their respective incarnational threads each have particular deep-level configurations that tend to emphasize a motivation and specific aptitude for carrying out particular tasks associated with the fixing of the deep-level 'bugs' or misconfigurations within deeper consciousness, which have been the underlying cause of all major human dysfunction and irrationality. I refer to these individuals as 'specialist' no-soul people.

  The top-priority speciality (one could call it the 'core' one) has been the 'sniff-it-out' type, in which the person is motivated and mentally equipped to work out what's going on below the surface of our perceptions and functioning, ultimately to identify and enable the fixing of the aforementioned 'bugs' in deep-level consciousness, and assist Humanity's recovery from their dysfunctions by helping them understand what's going on. I myself am one of those, and appear to be the chump who's stumbled his way into hitting the jackpot, so to speak. These individuals typically have had the loneliest time through their lives because of their sort of determined mental focus and strong motivation to see through and keep clear of harmful emotional entanglements with ordinary people, which makes them more isolated than the other no-soul types.

  No-soul people — especially 'sniff-it-out' 'specialist' ones — are likely in some cases to get (wrongly) 'diagnosed' as having some form of 'high-functioning autism' by 'mental health' professionals, whose materialistic reductionism belief system blocks them from working out why those individuals are like they are.

  They are also more likely than other people to be given a very rough time by the garbage, which, via the cacoprotean network, may actively seek to destroy them, as was happening for me. — See:

  The 'forces of darkness' ('astral beings') — My own tough experiences and

  My 'astral beings' — Now the scary bit: what I was really dealing with — and also

  Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…

  >> However, in June 2023 I was prompted to recognise another specialist configuration of at least equal importance to 'sniff-it-out', and restricted to just a thin scattering of 'sniff-it-out' people. That is, 'guardian / overseer of Humanity'. Without that, I myself wouldn't have been anything like as motivated and focused as I am on benefiting of all Humanity, and yet keeping that in balance with my own needs, so I'm not just giving and not receiving, as so many people are.

  I'm in touch with another of those, and I recognise yet another, a sad case in this incarnation, who I recount in Psychiatry: my personal experience — gaining fundamental insights. My understanding is that in my next incarnation (in a 'clean' new civilization, not on Earth) I shall be part of a small group of 'guardian / overseer' people to facilitate the healthy and minimally environment-impactful development of that civilization at a global, and as appropriate, universal, level.

  The next speciality is the 'high-level leadership' one. This is very much a precautionary configuration, to enable there to be a scattering of people who are motivated and properly mentally equipped to be strong leaders in the sense of facilitators, conciliators and inspirers — an immensely positive, constructive and loving role, and emphatically not like current dictators / autocrats. Their function, if required at all, would be for assisting Humanity towards rationally-based, maximally environment-friendly governance.

  Allegedly there are a few other, rather lesser priority specialities, likewise to assist in the transition, but I don't yet have details of the functionalities involved, except for one — for providing supportive companionship primarily for 'sniff-it-out'-configured no-soulers, who latter are the most deprived with regard to meaningful human contact. Because the 'social isolation' aspect of their special configuration is now allegedly largely redundant, thanks to the major misconfigurations in deeper consciousness having been identified and fixed, some changes have been introduced into the system to give 'sniff-it-outers' more and 'stronger' opportunities at long last to find meaningful companionship.

  That provision has been made because 'sniff-it-out' no-soulers would be most inclined to self-sabotage and miss genuinely compatible companionship opportunities (i.e., with other 'specialist' no-soulers) that do arise in their lives. So an additional small contingent of very strongly compatible no-soulers has been made available, with a dedicated configuration that draws them particularly to the 'sniff-it-outers' and comes across as more immediately inviting, to help encourage them to break out from their isolation patterns and embrace the changed situation and take on the potential tremendous new friend who's just popped up.

  In the event, it appears that those subsidiary specialist configurations appear to be at least largely redundant, at least here on Earth, because they depended on people's losing their dysfunctional patterns of brain function relatively quickly, so that major change could be happening widely, and that hasn't been happening.

  Because those configurations have no opportunity for them to be used, those people carrying them suffer a range of life experience distortions and deep frustrations.

• non-physical aspects (of a person)
  The term I prefer to use where others would talk of a person's energy system or aura. All those concepts of 'energy' in a non-physical context, while not necessarily exactly wrong if used figuratively, do tend to cultivate a misleading and potentially troublesome understanding of our true nature. Actually our non-physical aspects are simply consciousness and whatever happens within consciousness — which none of us could ever actually know or understand.

  It's the garbage that had been cultivating in people that fixation on interpreting consciousness as 'energy' and then getting into all manner of convolutions in describing supposed 'energy' structures and dynamics — all of those being illusory / fictitious as far as I can ascertain.

  My clear understanding is that, possibly with some minor, 'borderline' exceptions, what is non-physical is not, and can't be, physically located. Thus, although in functional terms the 'energy system' or aura may be roughly equated with what I'm calling one's non-physical aspects, there's a big discrepancy because the 'aura' is physically located, permeating and extending out in all directions from the person's body.

  As I understand it, this discrepancy is instantly resolved by the simple matter of recognising that the structured and physically located auric system is just one of the plethora of illusory manifestations that the garbage had been getting people to create in their mindspace.

 

• Occam's razor
  A simple and fundamental principle that helps to ensure the quality and validity of any hypothesis. It determines that a hypothesis not contain more details or complexities than are required to explain all the current relevant observations / data. In other words, the simplest out of any alternative hypotheses that explain all the current observations / data is the most likely to be correct.

  That's an underlying principle in all my interpretations / hypotheses presented on this site. It's widely misused by opinionated people, however, to give the appearance of 'scientifically' discounting viewpoints and writings that in various ways contradict elements of those individuals' beliefs, including the materialist-reductionist belief system.

  For more about this, please see the relevant note in
  The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks.

 

• out of body
  A widely used term of convenience, which is technically inaccurate because consciousness itself is non-physical and thus is not physically located to start with, and therefore can't be said to be in or out of a physical body.

  So, if you supposedly 'go out of body' your connection with the physical reality (i.e., your experience of it) has weakened or even ceased, yes, and in particular cases you may seem subjectively to have moved to another place, but 'location' is only something that is subjectively experienced by consciousness, and is actually not informing you as to where it really is!

  As the 'base' of consciousness is non-dual, the question as to where it is located is hilariously meaningless.

  A person with the 'scared to be here' syndrome (aka 'schizoid character structure') is said to be partially out of body, and psychics get the impression that such a person's consciousness is to a fair extent out the top of their head. It needs to be understood that what psychics 'see' psychically is just a schematic representation that they are shown, mostly by the garbage — or, nowadays presumably through the operation of 'psychic seeing' patterns that the garbage's interferences had created before it (apparently) got dissolved.

  All such representations from the garbage, or from patterns left over from its interferences, have been given with an agenda to mislead, so, far from informing us as to what's true, they inform those of us with more than an ounce of common sense of particular things that are very unlikely to be true, at least in any helpful way!

  Generally, a person with fully-blown permanent 'scared to be here' syndrome would be having a 'thin' and 'anaemic' sort of physical life experience, given a lot of colorations from illusory experiences going on for them within or at least in the background of their mindspace. Those experiences would be laced with existential terror and longings and cravings for company and eroticism, based in various primary archetype-derived images and stories.

  A high proportion of such a person's life experience would thus be of inner fantasies, which seem meaningful because they play upon the longings and cravings, while 'the physical' seems relatively dull and lacking in anything much really meaningful.

  For more about the 'scared to be here' syndrome, please see

  The five human character structures — Their true significance
  and
  Solutions for some special 'difficult' issues for no-soul people.

 

• pattern
  A repetitive, rigid behaviour sequence or aspect of one's feelings or outlook on oneself or other people or life in general. Pattern behaviour is the antithesis of thought-out, rational behaviour. A pattern always reflects a person not being in control of himself in the affected aspects of his life, so that he is just an automaton, reacting in pre-programmed ways as though he were not a genuine human being at all. That is, to a very considerable extent, the state of the vast majority of people, at least up to the present time.

  Patterns come broadly in two major forms: (a) intermittent and (b) 'ingrained' or 'chronic'. The intermittent ones are relatively easy to recognise as patterns, because they manifest noticeably only in response to particular emotional 'button-pushing' or 'restimulation' events, and they're much the easier and quicker ones to dissolve.

  On the other hand, the ingrained patterns are in a state of constant restimulation and thus appear to be 'just part of his personality' or 'just his way'. Thus they're responsible for the distorted and limited outlooks that people have, which are shaped by endlessly looped stressful 'recordings' playing in the back of the person's mindspace.

  Whereas a person can at least theoretically recognise and do something to counter or dissolve each intermittent pattern as it shows up, an ingrained pattern, through seeming to be just part of the person's personality, is resistant to its being recognised for what it is, and typically the person would react in defensive, fear-based ways if any of his ingrained patterns are brought to his attention. It takes an exceptionally deeply aware person to get recognising and directly countering his ingrained patterns.

  Ingrained patterns are generally associated with particular persistent covert illusory realities that the person is carrying.

 

• pixie-led
  A humorous term that I use for people being led astray by any untoward influence. It does NOT indicate any belief held by me that pixies exist, except possibly as garbage-sourced illusory manifestations! I picked up that term back in the 1980s, long before I had cause to use it for the garbage, when I learnt that some people joked and others probably actually believed that when one got badly lost on Dartmoor it was at least sometimes because one had been covertly led by pixies.

 

• protection (psychic)
  The almost universal belief among 'healers', that we need or can benefit from assistance, protection and guidance from external, 'higher' beings or 'energies' is a toxic fiction cultivated among us by the garbage in order to disempower and unground us and thus to enable the garbage to gain more control over us.

  In fact, what you're doing when, for example, you invoke Archangel Michael, Metatron, Kwan Yin or, say, the Hathors, or indeed a divine support team, Jesus or 'the Holy Spirit', to protect or guide you, is to call upon the garbage to protect and guide you, pretending to be the respective higher presence. Is that really what you want?

  The 'highest' source, which we really need to connect with and open up, is NOT outside ourselves at all but is our own deepest aspect, which is also the all-pervading fundamental consciousness of which we and all things are manifestations. Therefore, for assistance and empowerment we need to look within, not outside ourselves.

  Also, the multitude of other methods used by 'healers' and psychics don't genuinely work — at least to any useful extent — and indeed they tend to help cultivate vulnerability, simply because of the powerlessness of the whole 'protection' mindset, in which it's believed that one is vulnerable and needs 'protection'.

  I include here objects, talismans and charms, none of which genuinely protects — except that maybe a bit of sage might keep a few flies out (though would hardly be very effective even at that!). So, if you see psychic 'protection' devices on sale anywhere, rest assured that they're bogus, and save your money!

  So, instead of invoking or using anything apparently external or indeed trying to 'protect' yourself at all, the best way forward that I currently know of is to use genuine self-actualization methods for opening up your very own self empowerment and self-protection — the latter actually much more effectively thought of simply as your natural and inherent immunity or invulnerability.

 

• psychic

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  Psychic perceptions (and indeed supposed 'higher' ones) are ones that come to people through the astral non-reality. All psychics (i.e., people with really noticeable psychic perceptions) are being seriously misled as to the nature of those perceptions. They imagine that what they see or otherwise perceive is something that's actually 'there', whereas in reality all that they perceive psychically is just various illusions and impressions given to them by the garbage in order to seriously and harmfully mislead.

  Various 'healers' and people who are into highly-regarded fields of spirituality or religion believe they have, or at least a person can have, genuinely 'higher' non-physical perceptions, which are not astral, and are free of the problems within the astral (so, they believe, their own non-physical perceptions are squeaky-clean and fully beneficial).

  However, my own observations both of what's been going on for me and what's going on for others don't at all support such beliefs, and instead points to ALL non-physical perceptions that people generally notice as being astral-sourced — the astral actually including all the purported higher as well as lower 'dimensions' of reality that different people believe in.

  It makes perfect sense that the garbage would convince many people that the spurious, ultimately troublemaking, impressions that it gives them are 'higher perceptions' of theirs, so that they then trust the bullshit they're being given, and also feel nicely superior for their having what they believe to be 'higher' rather than mere psychic perceptions. I myself can have no 'moral high-ground' about this, because for a few years I myself was caught in that trap!

  Actually some non-astral non-physical 'perceptions' are possible, though for nearly everyone at the present time they're more or less completely drowned-out by the much stronger and more brash astral-sourced impressions, which all come directly or indirectly from the garbage.

  The genuinely non-astral 'perceptions', however, are still not genuine perceptions in the way that people usually mean that word, because they're subtle impressions and communications in various ways (virtually always non-vocal) from one's own deeper aspects. In other words, one's own deeper aspects seek to show to one or make one aware of particular things of at least potential importance to oneself.

  That's a much more subtle sort of manifestation than what people experience as 'guidance' or 'clairvoyance', and it generally wouldn't be noticed at all except by a no-soul person reasonably advanced in their own self-actualization process.

  An example of this sort of 'perception' in my own life is the faint whitish or silvery radiance I 'see' around the odd person here and there. That does NOT mean that on such occasions I'm seeing something that's actually there, but rather, that my own deeper aspects are indicating to me that the particular individuals (or occasionally objects) have some issue that I need to be aware of, concerning weak grounding.

  In other words, I'm being given a subtle message that could be helpful. But it needs quite accomplished Helpfulness Testing to find out what any such impressions really mean, and indeed whether they're genuine or significant to start with.

  My warning about channelling actually applies to ALL engagement with psychic perceptions of any type. Please see
  Channelling and clairvoyance problems — The safe alternative.

 

• psychic attack
  A deliberate attempt by one or more people to harm a person by non-physical means involving the astral non-reality (which is why the attack is called 'psychic'). The attacks ALL involve use of illusory realities. Although they may appear to come in all manner of forms, actually their mechanisms are fundamentally the same — though I'm not sure how many people who carry out psychic attacks are aware of that.

  Psychic attacks may be in the well-known form of spells, curses or voodoo, but actually they can be carried out in many ways that superficially don't fit the popular image of such terms.

  I have quite convincing evidence of my having been a target myself of a supposedly massive 'Earth energies' attack, which took place in a bizarre scenario that the garbage had set up for me — and you can read about that in
  

  One really weird hike — 'Grand design' or outlandish psychic attack?.

  Rather than use actually useless 'protection' methods, the way to become safe from psychic attack is to get strengthening your whole system and opening up your own underlying intrinsic immunity — basically a comprehensive genuine self-actualization process. A great strategy for bringing this about with particular emphasis on addressing garbage / 'entity' / psychic attack problems is presented in
  'Dark force' and entity troubles — The real way to clear them,
  which has a section explaining psychic attacks (moved from here because it was too long for here).

 

• rationality
  The ability to think logically and flexibly — which implies the application of a deep level of awareness to one's thinking, and being aware of likely ramifications and consequences of one's conclusions and choices. Rational thinking sees what's new or unique in each situation and enables one to provide a unique and appropriate response to each situation, taking into account all likely implications and consequences. It's intrinsically positive and constructive, because the person understands that being other than positive and constructive simply doesn't make sense (it degrades one's own life experience as well as that of others).

  See also irrationality.

 

• reality
  'Reality' is actually not definable, despite almost everyone being sure they know what it is! It can be said that the only reality (i.e., a 'real', objective one) that we can really know is simply the nature of experience itself — which can only be experienced, not described nor defined. What one is referring to in such a statement is the non-duality of fundamental consciousness.

  However, it's not helpful therefore to regard everything one experiences and can describe, as being 'just illusion' rather than reality. It's not that all 'realities' that people experience are equal, because they're not. Each apparent 'reality' is 'real' within its own terms of reference, but can be seen as only 'relative truth' when viewed from outside its terms of reference. Yet, if you use methods to dissolve 'illusory realities' that you're carrying, your perceptions gradually change, and you thus progressively open to a more constant and less subjective 'reality' — what I refer to as 'What Is', whatever that may be!

  Thus, although one could spend any number of lifetimes in intellectualizing / philosophizing about what really is 'reality', the practical approach that makes sense is to keep an extremely open mind on the subject and, in practical terms, to regard 'What Is' — whatever that is! — as being the practical or working reality that we all need to open to, in addition to the underlying reality of non-duality / fundamental consciousness. Both of these are what you're gradually opening to in a genuine self-actualization process.

  For an explanation of why the ultimate reality is consciousness itself (as far as we could ever know) and not anything external that we could know about, please see
  On the nature of reality and truth — Too simple to believe! :-).

 

• re-evaluation (mental process)
  The belated processing of memory data from experiences that couldn't be fully 'evaluated' within a day of the respective events. This completely unconscious process can occur once the original obstructions to their evaluation have in some way diminished or even gone altogether.

  Because this is simply a belated evaluation process, the same comments apply to it as to the initial evaluation process. In other words, to consciously seek to 're-evaluate' a past stressful experience actually hinders the genuine re-evaluation process for the memory data from that experience — which points to the fact that various professional counselling and psychotherapy approaches would generally get in the way of genuinely resolving the emotional issues that they're seeking to help clients to resolve.

  Re-evaluation can be facilitated by methods that in one way or another release the stored emotional trauma 'energy' that prevented the evaluation in the first place. Re-evaluation Counselling was the first such method that I encountered, but fortunately there are much safer and more effective methods, such as Self-Power Walking and The Work which are among those I recommend nowadays.

  I explain more fully about this process and the major problems caused by people's accumulating pool of unevaluated memory data, in
  Ways of handling a prospective rough or sleepless night.

 

• Re-evaluation Counselling
  A peer co-counselling method for freeing oneself of rigid patterns and clearing oneself of emotional issues (potentially all of them) by means of facilitating the basic emotional release processes of crying, trembling, laughter, a particular type of 'angry' storming (NOT ordinary 'anger') and yawning / stretching, as well as recognising and seeking to counter rigid patterns that are evident in oneself and others.

  For more information, including my own very educational and salutary experience with this theoretically sound but actually inefficient and rather problematical method, please see
  My own self-actualization process or 'path' — Part 1.

 

• Regular Core Practices
  The term I'm using for certain of the practices used in the self-actualization methodology presented on this site. Those practices are ones that enable a wide range of positive internal changes to occur, so each can be regarded as more or less 'broad-spectrum' in its effects, though still each with its own particular emphasis.

  The other methods, not so designated, are just as important but are more special-purpose; you'd use them for specific situations, whereas the Regular Core Practices are what one would use in a daily 'core practices' session, possibly together with the odd non-'core' practices too. However, there's nothing at all against using any particular Regular Core Practice on its own at any time.

  These practices are the current equivalent of what I was calling Clarity-Sphere Companion practices until September 2018, when I discontinued use of external aids in my methodology.

  You can see which are the Regular Core Practices in
  Some potent self-actualization / healing practices.

 

• reincarnation
  The process of commencing a lifetime after having finished a previous lifetime.

  Reincarnation is unfortunately one of the many subjects of seriously harmful misinformation that has been disseminated by the garbage through the various 'spiritual', mystical, metaphysical and paganistic traditions. I've come to the understanding that there are TWO very different, albeit related, modes of reincarnation, which can respectively be called no-soul reincarnation (the healthy way — 'as Nature intended', but oh, so rare!), and soul reincarnation (the universal norm, and seriously dysfunctional). It's the latter that's generally recognised — except that it's almost always seriously misdescribed.

  Soul reincarnations occur sequentially, and are karmic — that is, karmas accumulated during one lifetime carry over to the next lifetime, so that each successive incarnation is carrying more karmas, and thus is more dysfunctional and unhealthy, than the previous one. No-soul incarnations, on the other hand, are non-sequential and non-karmic, because karmas are stored in soul programming, and so a no-soul person starts with a 'clean slate' and has only karmas accumulated during the current lifetime.

  For an explanation of these two types of reincarnation, how they relate to each other, and their extremely important significance, please see

  The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks.

 

• sacred / holy
  Sacredness and holiness (fundamentally meaning the same, although commonly used as though they have somewhat different meaning) is a seriously harmful and indeed nonsensical concept, used by traditions to put (or keep) people in their lowly stations and revere specific people or objects as being imbued with 'divinity' and having special (supposedly beneficial) powers (whereas everyone else implicitly more or less lacks that illusory quality).

  In the case of 'holy' or 'sacred' books / scriptures, that designation is used additionally to strongly discourage anyone from holding those books' contents up to the much-needed rational scrutiny and questioning of their veracity and helpfulness as any sort of life guide. Without exception, the place for all those is in the respective local recycling depots (that's right, please think of our environment and do that rather than burn them)!

  The purpose of those designations is to ensure that people are pointed right away from self-actualization, through always looking for perfection outside themselves, and thus completely failing to recognise and start opening up the still greater 'perfection' that is intrinsic in their own underlying true nature. That in turn helps maintain the authority of the religious and 'spiritual' traditions over people and ensure that the masses never become their own powerful and loving 'saviours' as they pressingly need to.

  There's absolutely no rational or worthwhile basis for such designations. Anyone genuinely aiming for self-actualization or living rationally, or indeed being a genuinely positive force in the world, needs to expunge completely from their lives any recognition of or collusion with any hint of 'sacredness' or 'holiness' in any aspect of their everyday life experience. They need always to remember that every single thing in the whole of existence is simply as it is, and nothing more nor less than that!

 

• samsara
  A term that I myself don't use, nor encourage people to use, which comes from Buddhism, meaning the realm of human experience that's based in cyclic reincarnations, and which, in the Buddhist view, brings ongoing suffering. In real, down-to-earth terms, therefore, it equates roughly to that aspect of life that's dominated by illusions and illusory realities that are astrally derived and have come to us from the garbage. It also includes every person's sequence of soul reincarnations, which, unlike in Buddhism, I understand to be part of a degradational process over many lifetimes.

  Thus the reality of what Buddhists are calling samsara needs a different approach from theirs in order genuinely to get one free from that scourge.

  At least my own working model is in concordance, sort-of, with the Buddhist view in clearly recognising that we do need to get free from that reincarnational cycle (i.e., of soul reincarnations), but their problem is that their view of its true nature is distorted, and in such a way that people with Buddhism's faulty, belief-based 'understanding' and methodology are generally actually entrenching themselves increasingly firmly within that soul-reincarnation cycle, while believing that their meditation and other 'spiritual' practices are liberating them from it.

  They see 'liberation' as exiting altogether from the reincarnation process and thus from physical life, because they haven't recognised that there's also a different mode of reincarnation outside of the karmic sequence of soul reincarnations, which is the fundamental, natural and healthy type of reincarnation — i.e., no-soul reincarnation.

  At least theoretically, then, any reasonably well-functioning no-soul person here on Earth would actually already be outside 'samsara', even if not yet enlightened, and indeed even if having a difficult time from garbage shenanigans as the garbage seeks to screw the person up or otherwise divert him sufficiently to drive or entrap him into the soul reincarnation cycle.

 

• schizophrenia
  

  (Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage-related references are still very relevant here.)

  One of the most pejorative labels, and most emotive in effect, that psychiatric workers routinely put upon particular individuals who are getting certain types of garbage-sourced interference and whose awareness is sufficiently ungrounded for them to be having major difficulty in distinguishing between the physical reality and the various illusory realities that the garbage is giving them — not that the psychiatric workers have any genuine clue as to the actual cause(s) of the apparent strangeness of the individuals who they label with that dread term 'schizophrenia' or 'schizophrenic'.

  Nobody is actually, basically, intrinsically, schizophrenic, just as nobody and indeed nothing is intrinsically good or bad. 'Good', 'bad', and indeed 'schizophrenic', are just labels of supposed convenience that people put upon things / people out of their own unawareness and unwillingness actually to look at the real situation and understand and respond properly to what's really going on.

  You don't help a person by calling them schizophrenic, so why in the name of Winnie the Pooh use that label in the first place, unless you want to harm them? If you're going to help a person who has one of the particular range of packages of garbage interference that get people labelled 'schizophrenic', then, surely, your first requirement is to establish what's actually happening for them.

  Putting labels on them or their situation can only get in the way, in the same way that a religious belief would. So, do you want to be a belief-driven 'sheep', always interested in labels and categories, or do you want to be genuinely intelligent about the matter? If the latter, you don't categorize, and instead you get to see what's happening for each respective individual person, and then get addressing and resolving the actual underlying issue(s). Simple!

  As I've already intimated, on the basis of my own first-hand experience of garbage interferences and my observations of many other people with them, who've got labelled with a whole unedifying range of 'diagnostic' medical or psychiatric categories, it's become clear to me that the real need in each case has been for measures to assist and encourage the affected person to get their awareness much better grounded, together with taking simple but effective measures to progressively strengthen the person's non-physical aspects and also to dissolve illusory realities and stored emotional stresses / traumas, and also to stall the emotional button-pushing feedback loops that constitute the major aspect of garbage attacks.

  That means in effect a genuine comprehensive self-actualization process, and an effective set of methods for that are right here on this site — none of which involves medication or 'treatments' of any kind.

  However, a small proportion of such people do appear to have some physically based brain condition that makes them unable to benefit from my methodology because their awareness is intractably ungrounded and their mental focus just too scattered. For those people a reputable neuropsychologist or / and Forensic or Clinical Psychiatrist Specializing in Psychotic Spectrum Disorders are pragmatic examples of possible compromises for getting some improvement in their condition (though a genuine full 'cure' would sadly be unlikely for such people). Currently ordinary psychiatrists are no useful option. Surprisingly, I found ChatGPT to give a remarkably sensible list of options for such cases.

• self
  I generally avoid use of this term because of the confusions surrounding its use, but I include it here to give some clarification. The 'self' is an illusory 'thing' that almost everyone believes to be real and to represent a person's identity. This is all part of the delusion of the non-enlightened state, in which one mistakenly believes that one's true identity is a 'thing' that one can call 'I' or 'me myself', which is supposedly defined by one's feelings and experiences.

  The term 'ego' is widely used for that meaning of 'self', but I encourage people to avoid using it because of its widely being used with a pejorative connotation.

  When one becomes enlightened, that delusion dissolves, and one perceives that there's apparently no definable 'thing' that can be called 'I' or myself; it's simply whatever indefinable (non-)'thing' is observing each and every experience and feeling.

  The confusions surrounding the delusional notion of 'self' have led in certain traditions to a distorted notion of a supposedly very advanced or indeed completional enlightened / self-actualized state — the much coveted or indeed feared state of 'no-self', which, as far as I can ascertain, is just as delusional a state as the non-enlightened delusion of 'self'.

  The notion of 'no-self' has been widely cultivated by the garbage in order to get people distorting their self-actualization process and creating for themselves a new illusory reality in which they believe that they've 'got there', or in which only a few great 'adepts' ever 'get there' and nobody else could — and thus genuine self-actualization is blocked.

  In fact the term 'self' could also be quite legitimately used for the 'real self', even though it's completely non-describable — the apparently individuated micro-aspect of fundamental consciousness that, upon enlightenment, you come to recognise as your true identity.

 

• self-actualization / self-realization
  In my usage, both terms are basically synonymous, but nowadays in practice I have a distinct preference for 'self-actualization'. I'd been using 'self-realization' when speaking, simply because the latter is easier to pronounce. However, it's come to my notice that this plays into a widespread, garbage-sourced confusion that very many people harbour.

  They claim that they've had 'self-realization' or indeed are 'self-realized', when actually it turns out that all they mean is that they've had insights (whether correct or otherwise!) about themselves and their respective life experience. That's emphatically NOT 'self-realization' in any usefully meaningful way. The term 'self-actualization' keeps clear of such confusion, so I strongly recommend that only the latter term be used, notwithstanding its use in the (necessary) subtitle of this website.

  Self-actualization, then, is the process of opening up one's full potential — uncovering and 'straightening out' the currently hidden, obscured or distorted parts or aspects of one's whole being, so that one becomes an optimally manifested incarnation of fundamental consciousness. That may sound mind-bogglingly esoteric to anyone new to the concept, but actually another, more 'friendly' way of putting it is that through a self-actualization process you uncover and open up the unimaginable simplicity of your own natural state.

  If it were not for all the obscurations and distortions, each of us would be having life experiences that are basically vibrantly happy, positive and loving towards one's surroundings (including other people and other living things), creative, flexible and fully rational in a deeply aware and considerate and responsible way (in other words, clear-minded); one would also be a natural and spontaneous weakener for all garbage influences — which is undoubtedly why the garbage was constantly seeking to keep everyone away from comprehensive genuine self-actualization!

  Thus the garbage itself has been largely responsible, both directly and indirectly, for people's obscurations and distortions, so inevitably, for a really effective self-actualization process one needs to use methods and strategies that facilitate weakening of one's garbage-sourced interferences and attacks and reversing the harm that it had been doing to one.

• shadow person / shadow entity
  A subjectively diverse category of phenomena, but they are all fundamentally illusory, dependent upon the perceiver having their awareness seriously weakly grounded, so that (s)he is dangerously suggestible.

  Their underlying mechanisms are the same, however, with good prospects for progressively clearing them using the methodology presented on this site — but that does require the person to have sufficient depth of awareness, motivation and mental focus, and not everyone has that, though some can cultivate that over a period, provided they have the basic motivation.

  While each case may appear to be unique, the underlying general principle is that, generally with the garbage's strong connivance, the person would get interpreting the odd shadows or other shapes, usually as seen in one's peripheral vision, as being some sort of human or 'entity' form that is following or stalking them — and this can then progress to seemingly clearly seeing people or things that aren't there, even in their central vision. As these apparitions become subjectively 'solidified' into something seemingly 'real', the garbage commonly causes them to appear to interact with the person — and then all manner of big troubles can lead on from that.

  This is generally based in some degree of paranoid mindset, which may or may not have been apparent before. It readily leads on to the person unawarely creating one or more elementals, which help solidify the apparent reality of the illusions, sometimes to the point of the elemental seeming to be a 'spirit attachment' or 'evil spirit', which can cause mayhem and destruction in the person's life.

  As with 'spirits' and 'entities' generally (ALL illusory), even those shadow people / entities that appear to be friendly / beneficial are basically appearing to the person as a result of garbage interference, so are intrinsically harmful, and need to be cleared just as much as apparitions that are overtly troublesome.

• 'sheep' (aka 'sheople', 'sheeple')

  

  My own term of convenience for all varieties of social conformer — people who have significant soul programming and who consequently live 'appropriately' rather than authentically. They tend to follow others, both physically and mentally, and so are greatly limited in their ability to think for themselves, living their lives very much on the basis of rules, 'received wisdoms', and what they believe is expected of them by their peers or some perceived 'authority'.

  They have a strong tendency to categorize people, situations and experiences, so that they repeatedly fail to see what's unique in each person / situation / experience, and thus their responses to what they experience are to a considerable extent pattern-based and thus rigid. They can't understand people who have little or no soul programming, the lack of which renders people open, aware and flexible in their outlook, and typically regard them as having something a bit 'weird' or wrong about them, even to the point of regarding particular individuals as being seriously mentally disordered, just on that count.

  Hence I myself, as a no-soul person, get quite readily regarded as 'weird' (i.e., in the pejorative sense), or indeed mentally disordered, by particular 'sheep', who can't understand at all what I'm really on about in this life.

  To avoid confusion, I always enclose the word 'sheep' in single quotes when using it with this particular meaning. Some people use the term 'sheople' or 'sheeple' with the same meaning.

  N.B. It's generally 'sheep' who come criticising this site, or/and post those criticisms on other sites, because they can't tolerate the challenge to their own beliefs and outlooks that this site gives them. They commonly seek to dismiss / suppress the source of the challenge they feel, rather than hold their own belief-based outlooks up to proper scrutiny.

  See also 'sheepism', immediately below.

 

• sheepism

  The trait of outlook and behaviour that makes people behave as 'sheep'.

  I've noticed that there's actually a far-out religion called 'sheepism'. My use of the term does NOT refer to that! — I'd be very glad to give any 'sheepists', rather than just 'sheep', a particularly wide berth!

  Actually, that noun 'sheep', as detailed immediately above, needs to be used generally more sparingly than I'm doing on this site to make a rather undiplomatic point — because in practice one tends to use this with a pejorative connotation, as a label, a categorization, which isn't very helpful because it's pointing a finger more at the person than at the issues (s)he's carrying.

  While I don't want to get into, or encourage, any sort of rigid 'Clarity of Being correctness' over this or any other matter, I counsel that we seek as far as reasonably possible to recognise that the 'sheep' is really not the person but the particular problem that the person is carrying. The 'sheep' person may seem to be perverse in his unawareness and limited outlook, but the reality of course is that (s)he is an unfortunate individual blighted by the trait of sheepism, and is consigned to living a relatively dull and degraded life as a consequence.

  That has particular point because we ALL — even no-soul people like me — have at times, however briefly, given way to and manifested the odd bits of sheepism. So really it's misleading to regard people as simply being either 'sheep' or 'non-sheep', for there's no neat binary division between the two, and indeed there's a full spectrum of 'sheepism' in the world's population, between 'maximum-sheep' to 'virtually no-sheep' — what I take to be the effect of the full range of amounts of soul programming that people are carrying.

 

• soul / 'parasitic lost soul'
  The soul is an extremely serious dysfunction (yes, dysfunction!) affecting all but a tiny minority of people, consisting of programming in the form of a complex of illusory realities and patterns, which limits each person's depth of awareness and generally distorts their perception of 'What Is' in an extremely wide range of ways, mostly very subtle, and predisposes the affected people to be unmotivated towards self-actualization, or, in the minority of cases where there is such motivation, always to have a distorted 'understanding' of self-actualization that ensures that most of those people are more or less ineffective in whatever they attempt to do to achieve it.

  That soul programming is the primary cause of the 'sheepism' character trait.

  That programming also ensures that the affected people are unable to die fully, and at the time of death, instead of reverting to fundamental consciousness, as they would in a healthy state, they follow the dictates of their programming to repeatedly reincarnate as 'soul reincarnations' in a degradational, karmic sequential series.

  The soul thus is often mistakenly regarded as the fundamental non-physical 'vessel' of an individual person, because it does appear to be the 'vessel' that takes a person from one (soul) incarnation to the next. What isn't generally recognised is that this is a dysfunctional situation, and in a healthy situation there would be no 'vessel' (of programming distorting the person's continuum of consciousness).

  The soul programming, created by the interactions of the garbage with the person's inner responses to their stressful or indeed traumatic life experiences, is accumulated through each soul reincarnation, and is the cause of the progressive degradation. The end product of that degradational sequence is what I describe as a 'parasitic lost soul' — though I think technically it doesn't precisely fit the official definition of a parasite, so 'parasitic' is used figuratively here.

  Such unfortunate consciousnesses have so little conscious awareness left uncovered by their programming that they can no longer incarnate, and are controlled by the garbage, which directs them to no-soul and nearly no-soul incarnations who've just come into the world, to whom the lost souls attach or connect in some way (NOT as the supposed 'spirit attachments' that 'healers', psychics and so-on would recognise), then, under control of the garbage, causing their incarnated hosts a huge range of problems.

  It's almost universally believed by 'healers', psychics and just about anyone associated with the New Age movement, that the most 'open' and aware people are 'old souls', and that the most unaware people ('ordinary' people) are 'new souls', who would evolve over many incarnations into the 'open' and aware state of 'old souls'.

  However, my own indications are consistently that this is a garbage-sourced inversion of the true state of affairs, also perpetuating the seriously harmful myth that each person is, or at least is defined by, a soul. What I see — and this is pointed to by masses of observations — is that what are widely called 'old souls' are none other than no-soul people and those who've incarnated just one to a few times, while the genuine old-soul people are the 'ordinary', unaware people.

  That actually makes perfect sense if you really stop to think about it, for no-soul incarnations manifest directly from fundamental consciousness and so of course would be the most pure and open to their underlying true nature and thus would be bound to be the most 'open' and aware, and 'naturals' for self-actualization. Old-soul people, on the other hand, would have picked up a further increment of degradational programming with each of their soul reincarnations, and so inevitably would be the most degraded and unaware people.

  It's fairly widely claimed that many 'souls' each give rise to more than one concurrent incarnation. To my best understanding, and this is supported by my own inner inquiry, that is a complete impossibility and fiction*, sourced of course from the garbage.

  * — And that's the case no matter whether one has defined 'soul' on the basis of my own definition (i.e., defined by harmful programming) or simply to mean an individual 'consciousness'.

  It appears that the purpose of that fiction is to form the basis of the various stories that the garbage gives to many people, of their having special soul connections and indeed 'twin soul' connections with particular people, so getting them entangled in illusory realities in which they're supposedly going to unite or 'reunite' with the other members of their particular 'soul group' or 'soul twin' / 'soul mate' / 'twin flame' or similar, and get into monumentally attached 'close relationships'. That of course would greatly help keep the affected individuals well away from genuine self-actualization. Those illusory realities are all tied up with the 'ascension' myth.

  The garbage tried that one on me on quite a big scale, and its repeated failure to get me attached to any particular scenario that it put to me led to its repeatedly 'giving the game away' by periodically changing the 'soul mate' scenarios with which it was plying me.

• soul fragment
  This is rather a misnomer through the general failure to distinguish between 'soul' and 'consciousness', for really a more helpful term (although probably even then not quite 'there') would be 'consciousness fragment'. However, that's quite a mouthful to say, and if I used it, few people would understand that I was referring to what's generally called a soul fragment. Indeed, 'fragment' really gives the wrong impression — as though a consciousness is brittle and 'fragments' would fly off like splinters of glass in particular traumatic situations.

  The general idea is that when a person is undergoing some major emotional trauma, one or more 'fragments' of that person's non-physical aspects become separated off and in various circumstances are unable to reattach because of distortions in the person's non-physical aspects caused by that trauma. There is still full connection at a deeper level of the person's being, but at a more 'superficial' (i.e., dualistic) level there is then that separation.

  There are all manner of accounts of what's purported to happen to such soul fragments, but I myself have no intention to speculate as to how much they become spatially separated from the person, for what psychics 'see' or 'read' is all at best distorted information coming from the garbage and thus isn't to be taken seriously.

  However, my own inner inquiry supports the hypothesis that, in broad terms, this phenomenon does occur, and that such separated 'soul fragments' (actually far too tenuous and ill-demarcated to be called 'fragments' as people would normally mean it) commonly try to attach to people — not out of any sort of malice but because they're unable at that point to re-integrate with their 'main part', i.e., the person they're really part of, and they don't have the independent thinking ability to seek to improve their situation and to avoid attaching to anyone.

  Usually those soul fragments fail to attach to anyone, BUT there's one big exception: people who've actually had one or more 'soul fragments' separate from themselves because of some trauma(s) that they've been through. In such cases the 'foreign' soul fragments can attach because there's a figurative 'gap' in the person's non-physical aspects, which a soul fragment could 'jump into', but of course it isn't actually a part of that person and so it can't actually integrate with him/her. So, the person then has a small but very stressed and confused bit of another person within their own system!

  The soul fragment in itself can't think or communicate, but its very presence greatly aggravates the 'host' person's situation and can cause all sorts of emotional and physical problems, including feelings of confusion about one's identity. The garbage would also exploit the inevitable major distortion and internal 'energy' conflicts caused by this situation, and so be much more able to interfere directly with and attack the person. The garbage also would seek to get people into harmful substance misuse addictions such as smoking and alcohol, because these accentuate susceptible people's susceptibility to picking up soul fragment attachments.

  Traditionally, 'soul retrieval' is regarded as essential for anyone who's lost any 'soul fragments', in order to supposedly recover and re-integrate one's lost soul fragments, but I caution that dedicated procedures supposedly for this purpose would generally cause more problems than they could ever resolve. My own best understanding so far is that if you have an ongoing self-actualization process, including the dissolution / clearance of all stored emotional traumas and stresses, any necessary 'soul retrieval' would occur spontaneously at its own most effective time.

  Attempts to bring in detached consciousness fragments before they can yet be properly integrated in one's system are bound to be a waste of time, as well as very likely causing various further problems — and once they can be properly integrated, they'd be drawn in anyway, albeit with some delay where such fragments have got attached to other people. However, even in the latter case, trying to force the process with some dedicated procedure would almost certainly cause more problems and not achieve the supposedly beneficial aim anyway.

 

• soul mate
  A fictional type of 'ideal partner' — the fiction having been given to people and no doubt certain traditions by the garbage, as part of its ongoing campaign of cultivating in people a fixation on having very strongly attached 'relationships' that limit their awareness and keep them away from self-actualization.

  The garbage commonly cultivates a person's belief that (s)he is destined to meet up with a specific soul mate, who would usually be claimed to have been close to the person in a previous lifetime, so that it would supposedly be a most wonderful reunion, leading into a sort of 'lived happily ever after' fairy-story scenario. This of course is just more garbage bullshit to cultivate attachment and illusory realities, so keeping the particular individual pointed well away from any genuine self-actualization.

  For a small minority of people, a dramatic sense of a particular person being one's (potential) soul mate may well arise because they are (more or less) no-soul, and are experiencing the 'wow!' of encountering another no-soul person. Nowadays I get a fair number of such wonderful experiences, but 'soul mates', no, they're not! — Ironic, don't you think?!

  For more about soul mates and also the related so-called twin flame, please see
  Exploring close relationships — Exit the soul mate.

 

• soul origin
  A term that I nowadays don't use at all, except when recounting various confused notions that I'd taken on board during my period of being very seriously interfered with and led astray by the garbage.

  The notion of 'soul origin', much associated with the New Age movement, is that each of us is fundamentally a soul (— which is actually a very serious and troublesome falsehood), and each of us, as a soul, has purportedly come into existence from one of a variety of sources — ranging from direct from the 'Creator Consciousness' to indirectly from the 'Creator Consciousness' via first existing as one of various types of purported higher being.

  Thus, according to the version of this scenario that I myself channelled, some people were supposedly originated from angels or even archangels (9th dimension beings), or, extremely rarely, Elohim (upwards of 9th dimension), while others were originated from beings in other 'dimensions', such as 'ascended masters' (typically 5th dimension). Thus everyone purportedly had a specific type of soul origin.

  This isn't at all how I now understand things to be, now that I'm more or less clear of the garbage's deceptions and have my awareness much better grounded. By putting the above elaborate scenario into the minds of psychics, mystics and New-Agers the garbage was doing a great job of diverting people away from recognising the very different, true nature of the soul, for which, to talk of one or another sort of soul origin would be meaningless — for there's only one origin of a soul (a particular type of interference from the garbage), and that isn't at all the origin of the actual individual consciousness that's unfortunate enough to have a soul!

  It's important to emphasize here too, that nobody is a soul, and indeed a small minority of people have no soul, and that that's a tremendously healthier state of affairs than having one.

 

• soul retrieval
  Please see soul fragment.

 

• special powers (that a person may use)
  

  Important! Please read Underlying causes of human dysfunction now in past tense…. Most susceptible people would still be subjectively experiencing garbage interferences, though, as explained on that page, so all garbage references are still very relevant here.

  This is the whole gamut of psychic 'powers' that certain people are able to use, including psychic perceptions. However, generally when I use this term I'm referring more specifically to the ability to carry out actions that would be labelled by many as 'magic', 'magick' or 'miracles', and which would be regarded by 'scientists'* quite generally as impossible.

  * I put 'scientists' in quotes to make the point that a fully genuine scientist would have a more open mind and wouldn't dismiss 'special powers' out of hand on the basis of a belief that there's nothing more to 'reality' than the physical Universe and what can be achieved within the constraints of physical 'laws'.

  You might think that, if it were not for the existence of the garbage, it would be at least a theoretical possibility for any of us to enhance and enrich his life experience by the judicious and aware use of 'special powers', so, for example, one could transport an object (even just possibly oneself) instantly from one location to another, and one could use telepathy and also carry out 'miraculous' physical healings, and so on.

  The problem is, however, that ALL these 'special powers' involve use of the astral non-reality, and involve creating illusory realities that are then made to impinge upon and, apparently, actually to alter the basic reality of 'What Is'. That is in small measure actually weakening and breaking down the ordered security of 'What Is' — polluting it with the chaotic character of the astral non-reality.

  As though the latter were not enough, by the very nature of the astral non-reality, using it and especially 'playing about' with it for the purpose of 'special powers' would have unforeseen consequences of immensely troublesome seriousness.

  To give an idea of the degree of seriousness I mean, I'd draw attention to my own pointers to the whole garbage phenomenon having been inadvertently created by early human-type beings harnessing the astral non-reality for the use of telepathy and other 'special powers'. Indeed, it's even more serious than that, if my December 2015 new understanding of the true nature of the astral really is correct (see the glossary link above).

  In the event, as we did have the garbage, what actually happened when a person sought to use 'special powers' is that the garbage would 'help' the person by facilitating the process, just as in channelling, and so the results were all the more unpredictable and indeed dangerous. The garbage also made 'special powers' available to many people who simply didn't have the depth of awareness to use 'special powers' in a responsible way — so the mischief was multiplied.

  Without the garbage, only deeply aware individuals (very advanced in their self-actualization by our standards) would be able to use 'special powers', and so the problem wouldn't be so acute — though it would still ultimately be a menace, as indicated above.

  Although my indications are that dissolution of the garbage and closure of the astral from all human (-type) minds in the whole of 'Existence' completed in early 2022, in practical subjective terms, for the vast majority of people those same influences and experiences continue, as illusions caused by ingrained patterns of brain function that were created by the original direct interferences. However, whether actual, rather than imaginary, 'magic' / 'miracles' could occur now at all is very doubtful.

  Miracles a special case? What about Jesus?
  It doesn't matter whether the use of 'special powers' is called magic, magick, miracles, white magic or black magic, nor whether it's carried out by a Satanist, a widely revered nun, or a one-time crucified and supposedly resurrected 'saint'.

  Basically, whether the visible results look to be 'nice' or 'nasty', it's the garbage that was working the show, and so, sadly, in our current situation, ALL use of 'special powers', no matter how good the person's intentions, is seriously problematical and was actually involving working with the garbage.

  So, yes, I AM saying that the actually mythical character called Jesus portrayed in the Bible was very clearly working with and being led by the garbage — albeit unwittingly. The biblical myth of Jesus does appear to be based on a historical man, who I understand not to have had that name within his lifetime, and who was probably carrying out few if any 'miracles' — and of course was NOT born of a virgin — there's simply no means by which that could happen in the 'real world'!

  Aren't 'magic' and 'miracles' just pretence and charlatanry?
  Actually, to a very large extent, I suspect, yes!

  That isn't so much because they can't happen at all, but because:

  • there are plenty of outright scoundrels who are deliberately pretending,
  • there are plenty of others whose garbage interference worked in such a way that they actually believed they were being effective in using 'special powers' but in fact they were working seldom or never, and the respective individuals defensively 'fudged' their own perception and memory to convince themselves that they were being effective more or less every time, and
  • there are still others who have most or all of their 'special powers' experiences actually within astral realms, without recognising that it wasn't happening in the 'real world'.

  However, I've seen and heard enough sufficiently convincing reports to make me reasonably sure that in the right circumstances 'special powers' are a real phenomenon — and this is also supported by my inner inquiry on the subject. Indeed, I myself have had two minor experiences of this, and possibly a third, during my severe tribulations from the garbage, which I recount in
  The 'forces of darkness' ('astral beings') — My own tough experiences

  (do a text search there for 'teleportation').

  I explain more about how people playing about with 'special powers' could have actually ended up inadvertently creating the garbage itself, in
  The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks.

 

• spirit / Spirit
  A term that I avoid using except when quoting other people's use of it. Non-capitalized, as a 'countable' noun, it's just a less prejudicial alternative to 'entity', meaning any non-physical conscious being — though it's also often used for the consciousness of somebody who's died. Both meanings are seriously misleading, which is why the garbage had been encouraging their use.

  For a start, my indications are that there are no real conscious non-physical beings at all, at least, that we could ever know of — non-incarnated human consciousnesses actually NOT being what would be recognised as 'beings' or 'spirits' at all. Also, the term 'spirit' implies movement — something that readily moves from one place to another.

  That's the way the garbage was always seeking to get people regarding the consciousnesses of people who've died, but it's untrue, and belief in it greatly increased one's likelihood of being trapped at the time of death by an illusory reality in which one does subjectively appear to move to 'another place' when one dies. The reality as far as I can ascertain is that upon death human consciousness doesn't go anywhere because it's not physically located in the first place, and, as long as it doesn't get diverted into any illusory realities set up for it by the garbage, its life experience simply dissolves at that point.

  With regard to the use of the capitalized form, 'Spirit', that reflects another, related, garbage-sourced deception. In some (especially paganistic and healing) traditions, that term gets used in place of 'the Universal Consciousness', which itself I've improved upon by naming it 'fundamental consciousness', with a more precise definition.

  The mischief here is again that something that's actually all-pervasive and not physically or spatially located at all is being regarded as something that can move about and can think and speak to us as though it were simply a 'higher being' — and thus would be something much lesser than fundamental consciousness, and indeed would be just another variant of 'God'.

  Such anthropomorphism wouldn't really matter if only it were not potently creating illusory realities in people's 'minds', so that when they die they could then be trapped in those illusory realities and be forced into the degradational cycle of soul reincarnation.

 

• spirit attachment
  I become progressively more reluctant to use this term, which covers a multitude of sins and tends to give rise to all manner of misunderstandings and misinformation. The problem isn't really the 'attachment' bit, but the use of the term 'spirit', which itself I prefer to avoid using.

  I regularly observe people who have particular problems that defy so-called 'scientific' explanation because they relate to some sort of non-physical shenanigans that the 'scientific' and medical / psychiatric communities are unable to respond to in any intelligent manner because of their materialist-reductionist belief system. Those problems are very often best explained, at least in part, by postulating that they have what appear to be human consciousnesses attached to them — so-called spirit attachments.

  However, my own observations and inner inquiry point to what people often recognise as 'spirit attachments' as actually being elementals that are programmed to behave as though they're malevolent or at least very disturbed humans.

  Soul fragments attached to people sometimes get classified as 'spirit attachments' (though I prefer to call them what they actually are), and partial walk-ins and attached very controlling human consciousnesses that may represent failed partial walk-ins may sometimes get recognised and classed as 'spirit attachments' — though generally such types of attachment wouldn't be displayed to psychics, at least in any useful way, because it was the garbage that was choosing what they'd 'see'.

  Additionally, there's a whole class of non-incarnating human consciousnesses that are widely attached to people, which never get recognised as 'spirit attachments' at all — what I refer to as 'parasitic lost souls'.

  We also need to remember that some cases of direct garbage interference and attack may get interpreted by some people as the work of a malevolent 'spirit attachment', and indeed the garbage may seek to convince a person that the nasty things that (s)he is experiencing are being caused by a 'spirit attachment'. In some cases this could lead on to the garbage actually getting the person sufficiently ungrounded that it can then cause the person to unawarely produce an elemental that then identifies itself as an indeed very troublesome 'spirit attachment' — a very serious situation.

  One thing that apparent 'spirit attachments' are not, as far as I can make out, is what are often called 'earthbound spirits' or 'discarnate human consciousnesses' — basically the consciousnesses of people who've recently died.

  My own understanding is that such consciousnesses simply don't hang around after the person's death and then attach to somebody who is still alive — though soul fragments attached to a dying person would be 'turned loose' at that point and could then attach to nearby suitable people who are still alive. For this reason, hospitals can be risky places for susceptible people to be.

• spirituality
  The actually highly problematical mindset in which one interprets the nature of reality as incorporating some type of supposedly 'higher' reality that's in some way external to oneself — usually but not necessarily populated by supposed non-physical conscious beings or at least presences (actually all bogus, being illusions created in one's mindspace by the garbage).

  Because spirituality thus engenders a preoccupation with cultivating illusory realities in one's mindspace, it's a very effective block to developing more than a cosmetic veneer of the clear-mindedness that's so central to genuine self-actualization.

  In addition, at least almost always, spiritual traditions of all types — whether they call themselves religions, mystical, healing, metaphysical, esoteric, Tantric or paganistic traditions — also add in at least some degree of power / control hierarchy to which all members are in some way subject, even if only in an apparently subtle way.

  Typically a person who is into spirituality sees him/herself as being on a 'spiritual path / journey'. That neatly separates the person from any possible enlightened or genuinely self-actualized state, for that is all held off, being seen as notionally somewhere in the future; it's all 'pie in the sky' and 'jam tomorrow'.

  This is in contrast with the genuine enlightenment and self-actualization approach, which sees enlightenment and self-actualization as being already here, now; the self-actualization process isn't a 'path' nor 'journey' but simply a matter of getting increasingly in touch with what's already here, 'in the now'.

  What ALL 'spirituality' has in common is that it keeps people side-tracked, pointed away from comprehensive genuine self-actualization — and it's sourced from the garbage, evidently just for that purpose, because genuinely and optimally self-actualized people would be intrinsically garbage-weakening people.

  Indeed, ALL approaches to spirituality can be seen to be various types and degrees of superstition — even among people who fervently believe that their particular 'spirituality' doesn't involve superstition at all. 'Spirituality' is just a more respectable term, whereas 'superstition' has a certain pejorative connotation. 'My spirituality is squeaky-clean and Truth-based, whereas theirs is just superstition', sort-of thing!

• sticky cache / sticky layer

  'Sticky layer' was an actually half-baked concept, arrived at in late 2017, and much changed in February 2022 when I took some steps back from this and asked myself a few very basic questions about it. The notion of a 'sticky layer' proved to have been a decoy taking my attention away from investigating it from a more distant and balanced perspective, to work out what it really was, in a manner that actually pointed to a straightforward solution.

  It was a particular aspect of the 'mind' that lay below the conscious level, which existed within the line of communication between deeper consciousness and the conscious 'mind', which for some reason tended in early life (up to teens) to accumulate particular strongly-felt hopes, desires, aspirations and wishes. Those then would become progressively more hardened and entrenched, becoming fixations and obsessions.

  However, because their effects were so pervasive, they usually didn't usually draw attention to themselves in normal everyday circumstances. They appeared to underlie certain fixations that some people or indeed almost everyone have in their lives, which turned out to be very resistant to dissolving using the methods on this site, which had been so successful at dissolving so many other fixations and compulsions that we have.

  The 'sticky layer' was so named because it gathered and held onto material that didn't belong there, and because that unhelpful material, as fixations, could be seen as 'sticky' in the sense of 'obstinate' and a difficult issue to address.

  The word 'layer' was used figuratively*, because that aspect of consciousness acted as a 'man-in-the-middle', intercepting and often altering communications coming through from deeper consciousness to the conscious mind by various means such as Helpfulness Testing when used for inner inquiry. That altering of such communications was always seeking to get the person led into illusory realities and fantasy scenarios that would be an attempt to live out particular fixations that were held in the person's 'sticky layer'.

  * Because consciousness itself isn't physically located or locatable, technically it can't have any layers, seeing that no part of it has a physical location.

  This phenomenon was at least partially engineered by the garbage. The latter was encouraging and exploiting the building up of such illusory realities and fantasy scenarios, such as when a person uses inner inquiry and gains adulterated responses (this happened disconcertingly readily), and then those in turn were used as the basis for building up macro-attacks on the respective people. My understanding so far is that at least the vast majority of macro-attacks from the garbage were based on illusory / fantasy scenarios derived from 'sticky layer' contents.

  By the same token, if a person successfully used some means to clear the untoward contents of the sticky layer, (s)he would then be at least largely immune to further macro-attacks from the garbage i.e., until it got loaded up again with intents, aspirations and similar, which would again start causing fixations, attachments and entrenched attitudes.

  In early 2018 I worked out a highly plausible explanation of why engagement with certain sticky layer material could precipitate a long-lasting garbage macro-attack, even for a person who, like me, is overall well advanced in self-immunization against garbage attacks.

  My own observed sequence of events running through my two relatively recent macro-attacks (2015 and 2017), during both of which my attack-zapping methods had become ineffective for the duration of the respective macro-attack (3 and 2½ months) enabled me to work out what was most likely happening.

  The suggestion is that in both cases my methods had actually remained notionally fully effective(!), and the macro-attack couldn't have occurred significantly, but for one thing: my engagement with the respective bits of sticky layer material had enabled the garbage to re-route its attack mechanisms through the sticky layer itself, which it couldn't do without that particular engagement — and apparently my attack-zapping methods are ineffective in the sticky layer (only)!

  If that sounds like bad news I have a surprise for you, for it was actually GREAT news, because proper understanding (seeing and recognising what's really going on) pointed to at least potential solutions. That's where plain common sense scores time and time again over belief! — Except that that particular 'understanding' is now redundant because of my 2022 recognition of this anomaly's true nature, which was even greater news.

  The 2022 new understanding is that the 'sticky layer' was actually a sticky cache, analogous to a computer data cache, but faulty because it had so far been unable to delete items held there. This proved straightforward for deeper consciousness to fix, in less than three weeks (at a universal level). See:
  Project 'Fix the Human Condition'.

• superstition
  The basing of one's life experience on one or more overt illusory realities or beliefs involving non-physical 'realities' or influences. It involves the attaching of irrational and unverifiable explanations to everyday events or situations, disregarding any rational and even verifiable explanations for them.

  Religions and indeed all types of 'spirituality', along with astrology, divining systems, and personal foibles such as 'crossing' yourself when you see a magpie or a hearse or funeral in the street are all gross manifestations of such superstition, but the latter's subtler forms are rarely recognised as such, but are just as disfiguring and limiting to the person's intelligence and life experience. They all go against seeing clearly what's actually there, and thus keep one in varying degrees cut off from 'What Is'.

 

• thought form / thoughtform
  A quasi-autonomous programmed construct of 'thought energy'.

  Such a definition can sound like real quackery and charlatanry to materialist-reductionists and compulsive 'skeptics', but nonetheless it's the best succinct description I can come up with, to cover an actual phenomenon that we all observe in all manner of everyday life situations — most people never even pausing for a blink of an eye actually to consider what's going on 'under the bonnet' of what they see and otherwise experience.

  People unawarely send out thought forms to other people in many situations as part of a usually unaware strategy to control others, but also people into Satanism, black magic and other 'dark' practices commonly do this quite deliberately — either being directly aware of the thought forms they're sending out, or carrying out some ritual that in effect causes particular thought forms to be sent out from them. In such cases the thought forms would often go further than just control and would be part or totality of particular psychic attacks upon people.

  A more or less entity-like thought form complex can be produced and indeed sent, and that's what is called an elemental.

  However, since the astral non-reality was apparently closed-off from all human 'minds' in early 2022, I'm not at all sure yet to what extent genuine thought forms and elementals can be created anymore, for my understanding was that their creation and projection worked through the astral, which is apparently no more (having been restored to its originally intended subconscious function)*.

  * June 2024 update
  I've had cause to use my 'verbal hammering' technique (for sending out relevant thought-forms) on the day of writing this note, on an antisocially-behaving neighbour who the social housing landlord had so far been ineffective in 'bringing to heel'. Then afterwards I remembered that the astral apparently no longer exists as such, and thought-forms are supposed to be created and transmitted only in the astral, and wondered if therefore I'd achieved relatively little; just shouting would hardly be enough for a refractory individual like that one.

  My inner inquiry indicated that a no-soul person reasonably advanced in their self-actualization and with reasonably fluency in communicating between 'ordinary mind' and deepest aspects would be spontaneously and invisibly using a different and much preferable (harmless) method of delivering the requisite payload. During the focused commanding shouts, one would be connecting with the target person's deeper aspects and enabling them to set up little bits of 'code' in the back of the target person's awareness, which would function then much as the projected thought-forms would.

  The great advantage of that process over the use of thought forms is that only genuinely beneficial code would be placed, for the deepest aspects of both sender and target person would allow through only what is genuinely for the best. So, if I were perhaps unawarely trying to send out any harmful or otherwise inappropriate 'thought forms', they'd simply not arrive, nor indeed be created in the first place.

  I explain further about thought forms and describe how one particular sector of the population unawarely puts them out with merry abandon in the name of 'mental health', in
  Psychiatry: my personal experience — Gaining fundamental insights.

 

• twin flame
  A fictional type of 'ideal partner' who is supposedly even more 'ideal' and deeply connected than a mere soul mate — the fiction being given to people and no doubt certain traditions by the garbage, and causing people no end of problems. The 'twin flame' concept is one of the many extremely harmful nonsenses of the New Age movement.

  The term is fairly widely used interchangeably with 'twin soul' or sometimes 'soul twin', though I have an idea that in some quarters they're supposed to mean different things. However whether they do or not is really of no consequence because ultimately they are all the same — i.e., fictitious.

• ungrounded / weakly grounded
  An unhealthy unbalanced state in which a person has insufficient connection with and awareness of the physical 'reality'. That state results in an involuntary overemphasis on one's imagination and 'inner world' and troublesome 'what if' scenarios, and was including openness of perceptions to the astral non-reality, which meant that the garbage could easily directly interfere with and attack the person at any time, and could confuse, unsettle or indeed terrorize the person by creating all manner of illusory apparitions in the person's mindspace.

  If a particular part of the person's non-physical aspects was sufficiently weakly grounded, it was possible for the garbage to hijack the person's non-physical aspects to cause the person to unawarely create elementals that then could cause all sorts of problems surrounding that person, such as 'poltergeist' effects, apparitions, pictures etc. falling off walls, electrical equipment failing and in some cases purportedly even a tendency for things to 'spontaneously' catch fire.

  Many people with weak grounding were not getting such obviously troublesome garbage interferences and attacks, but this was generally because they were already accepting without question particular illusory realities that it had sought to cultivate in the respective people's mindspace.

  Such illusory realities include particularly religious, 'spiritual' and New Age related scenarios, including a father figure God, all manner of non-physical 'higher realities', including heavens and hells, and belief in such seriously harmful scenarios as 'ascension'. Such people misinterpret the cultivated weakening of their grounding as their supposed 'spiritual opening up' or 'spiritual advancement'.

  Tinnitus is one of the normal results of poor grounding of one's auditory awareness (though it's caused by other factors too, such as hearing loss). Generally one can overcome the element of tinnitus caused by weak grounding by use of measures to ground that aspect of one's awareness. The aware and discriminating use of natural soundscape recordings such as what I myself offer can assist one in achieving this, though frequently getting out into open spaces, especially wild ones and being fully attentive to all the sounds of your surroundings would be the ideal.

  Poor grounding of one's visual awareness makes one particularly prone to illusory visual disturbances, so that one may readily see hell visuals and various apparitions and in fact illusory psychic or 'spiritual' manifestations or indeed what may generically be called 'hallucinations'.

  Warning! Some 'healers', psychics and 'lightworkers' believe, or at least claim, that you can improve your grounding by connecting yourself to 'Earth energies'. For your own well-being you'd do yourself a great favour by having nothing to do with any person who has that belief or at least makes such a claim, for such people are potentially dangerous because of the sort of garbage interferences that most of them have. In reality, connecting yourself to 'Earth energies' (a) doesn't improve your grounding at all, and (b) opens you to the possibility of potentially lethal psychic attack.

• user-controlled energy device
  A generic term that I coined to cover the Clarity-Sphere (developed by me), the Energy Egg 'family' (commercially available), and the not generally available Light-Sphere and Energy Stone (produced by a particular 'lightworker' who I identify simply as DZ).

  The common distinguishing feature of these devices, all intended at least to facilitate life improvement, and, with the exception of the Energy Egg 'family', specifically to advance the user's self-actualization process, is that they're all rounded polished stones (generally spherical, but ovoid in the case of the Energy Egg 'family') to which a programming in subtle 'energy' has notionally been imparted.

  
  

  Despite categorical claims made by vendors, the reality is that NOBODY can ascertain in any objective way as to the true nature of the postulated programming involved. For example, it's not possible to know whether there's ever really any programming on / in the particular stone, nor whether such programming, if it objectively exists at all, is actually in the user's non-physical aspects instead, or indeed somehow in a sort of (postulated) 'resonance space [or connection]' between the stone and the user.

  My own general understanding of how these devices appear to work is that they don't actively do anything to the user. Rather, they're passive devices, working much like a chemical catalyst. Their programming enables the user's own deepest aspects to carry out various self-healing and self-actualization processes that would be unable to occur otherwise to any significant extent because of the person's 'blocks' and distortions that obscure the person's deepest aspects.

  In other words, the programming acts as a little window or 'bypass channel' between the person's 'visible' aspects and his deepest aspects, which is like a little window to his own self-actualized state, affording him some of the healing and self clearance / self-actualization ability that would be on hand all the time without any such aid if he were optimally self-actualized.

  I was extremely sceptical about this sort of device when I first encountered them (i.e., the Energy Egg, in 2006), and the only reason why I ever got working with them is that the Energy Egg 'family' marked the beginnings of my really effectively getting out of my quite desperate-seeming situation with ongoing major interference and attacks from the garbage, when I was really 'grasping at straws' to get out of all that and turn my life around.

  I later developed the Clarity-Sphere, in order to have more comprehensively and flexibly effective functionality, and also to get away from depending on commercial vendors who were always looking to further lighten my quite meagre wallet through sales of additional products and services.

  Certain of those vendors had also shown a markedly unscrupulous side of their business activities in their attempts to discredit me and my activities to other people by means of disseminating brazen misinformation about me (I have documentary proof of this), and whose categorical claims about their own products and how they were programmed and how they were supposed to function displayed a remarkable lack of transparency and didn't fully 'add up' for me.

  Please note that in September 2018 I declared the Clarity-Sphere system and indeed all external aids of any kind redundant, because over time I'd developed equivalent methods / procedures, and a whole modus operandi, that work much more effectively and flexibly, without use of any external aid. The Clarity-Sphere information will remain on this site for the time being as relevant educational historical information, but the device, and indeed use of all external aids is now regarded as 'legacy' and thus 'deprecated'.

  For more about these devices, please see
  The Clarity-Sphere — For Advanced Healing and Self-Actualization

  Red Warning! — User-controlled energy devices as defined and described above are to be clearly distinguished from all other types of device claimed to aid healing or self-actualization or protection from environmental stress or 'entities'.

  Almost all of the latter category are actually seriously harmful, in an insidious way so that one isn't aware of what's gradually happening to one. In various ways they progressively disrupt one's non-physical aspects and make one more vulnerable to the garbage, and in many cases make their user increasingly open to being incorporated into the cacoprotean network and thus becoming an unwitting part of the garbage itself.

  The majority of such devices use one or more crystals or/and magnets or magnetic substances, though some are actually electrically operated — while others use thought forms placed on one or more symbols (the use of runes is definitely included in that category), which may be visible or may be sealed away out of sight. Some of the most harmful are those devices using sacred geometry in any form, and also any that are electrically operated (I myself was significantly harmed by a Zapper and also a Bailey Stressbuster as well as by a set of sacred geometry 'healing' wands).

  The one thing they all have in common is that people need them just as they need a great big hole in their head — and NONE of them have the beneficial effects claimed for them, at least to any worthwhile extent in relation to the immense harm that they quietly and insidiously inflict upon their user.

 

• vow
  Not at all what the vow's creator believes it to be! A vow is a CURSE that one puts upon oneself! The urge or supposed obligation to make vows was always sourced from the garbage, whether directly or indirectly (e.g., through traditions and social convention).

  A vow is so harmful because it's an attempt by its perpetrator to dictate what he will or won't do in the future, so it's at least theoretically* taking away his own free choice. You can NEVER know what will be your most helpful, constructive and beneficial action or choice at any specific time in the future, and thus full flexibility and free choice is overridingly important, so that you can respond most effectively and constructively to the uniqueness of each present moment.

  * I include that qualifier because in practice it requires ability to use 'special powers' to create a real curse (and thus, a real vow) that 'sticks'. So in practice the vows most people make are not very effective. Hence people so readily end married relationships long before 'till death do us part'. Really such 'vows' are pretences — nothing more than a differently named "politician's promise'!

  That doesn't mean, however, that they're benign after all, because (a) to declare at all an intent as to how you'll behave in the future would still cause you and other involved parties completely unnecessary stress when it becomes sensible to behave differently from what the vow said, and (b) to be living a deception / lie is always stressful and degrading to your life experience, and serves no useful purpose except where your very survival would be jeopardized by not living the particular deception.

  It's therefore extremely important to include in your self-actualization process a full repudiation and dissolution of ALL vows that you are or might be carrying, whether they were made by you or by any parasitic lost souls or other human consciousnesses attached to you, or were made by you in a previous lifetime rather than the current one. This is already covered in my full set of affirmations, and additionally Grounding Point is the method of choice (at least, of the methods I know) for hurrying any vows on their way out.

  There are NO exceptions to the need to clear yourself of vows. Vows to behave in some supposedly 'good' way are still taking away your free choice and denying you the opportunity to be a genuinely positive and constructive person rather than a mere puppet of a petty dictator, and indeed would seriously limit your ability even to be 'good'. The harmfulness of marriage vows helps underline the iniquity of the whole social institution of marriage, which itself is incompatible with genuine self-actualization.

• walk-in / partial walk-in
  A walk-in is a non-incarnate human (or human-type) consciousness that has replaced the original consciousness living 'within' a particular human body. My understanding is that this phenomenon is one of the plethora of fictions that have come from the garbage. Yes, there are fairly rare occurrences when it appears superficially that that has happened, but my understanding is that in every case something more or less different, albeit related, has happened.

  In the classic 'walk-in' scenario, supposedly the 'higher consciousness' of the person has decided that for some reason it's better that the particular incarnation be terminated prematurely, and it comes to an agreement with a non-incarnated human consciousness that would like to take over that particular body as soon as its original owner vacates it. As I understand from my own inner inquiry, an actual replacement like that simply can't happen, and no such agreements are made.

  There are people who believe or strongly suspect that they're walk-ins, but my own indications are that they're mistaken about this, and that in at least the vast majority of cases, any impressions that they've been getting, that have suggested to them that they were walk-ins, have simply been bits of interference from the garbage, aimed at misleading them and getting them to have troublesomely distorted notions about themselves and their true nature and origin.

  A partial walk-in, however, is another matter. Whereas the garbage had been cultivating the fictitious concept of the walk-in in various quarters in order to encourage people to try out certain extremely harmful things on themselves, the garbage would seek to keep people from knowing anything about partial walk-ins, because the latter apparently have been occurring quite widely, albeit as a rarity, and indeed were part of the garbage's 'armoury' for causing the whole mass of human problems that you can see today.

  There's absolutely NO (at least properly informed) agreement on the part of the recipient to receive a partial walk-in; it's something that the garbage sought by all manner of subterfuge to get installed on / into certain people who for particular reasons it was seeking either to wreck or to take over in a very active way to make them very active 'puppets' to further the garbage agenda.

  To install a partial walk-in, the garbage was using all manner of ploys and deceptions to get the target person sufficiently ungrounded and indeed out-of-body. Then, at least, so the theory goes, the garbage would slip-in a carefully prepared very domineering partially degraded human consciousness, which then rules the show and more or less manages to force the real owner of the body into submission.

  Very often the installed partial walk-in would make the person a very active and even prominent healer, spiritual teacher or 'lightworker', and by that means was in various ways much more actively than previously furthering the garbage agenda for people on a global scale.

  However, I do have to emphasize that although the concept of the partial walk-in does tally extremely well with a multitude of my own observations, I can't be categorical that this is really what's happened to the affected people, because, as I see it, the same observable effects upon them look to be fully accountable for by their having been made members of the cacoprotean network — quite sinister and indeed disastrous enough in any case!

  If the latter scenario were the case, the garbage would undoubtedly be seeking to throw people off the scent of the cacoprotean network by, in some circumstances, actually encouraging somebody such as me to take on the concept of the partial walk-in as explaining the evident albeit covert strong garbage control that's operating for so many prominent 'spiritual' figures.

  In my own case, during my most severe shenanigans with the garbage from late 2003 to early 2007, the garbage set up various scenarios that were clearly purposefully designed to get me monumentally ungrounded, and I'd previously been assuming that these were all (apparently failed) attempts to get me landed with a partial walk-in. But in actual fact, that could well have been really attempts to connect me fully into the cacoprotean network — or indeed possibly even both options together.

  In fact, at the moment my inner inquiry is pointing to the 'both together' option, and my indication is that a partial walk-in is actually an essential part of a working connection between the cacoprotean network and a would-be (unwitting) 'member', so that, in the absence of a partial walk-in, at most only a very partial cacoprotean network connection could be made with a person. I recommend that this be taken as a 'speculative pointer' rather than a definite claim at the moment that exactly that is the true state of affairs.

  "Have I got a partial walk-in?"
  — Almost certainly not! A partial walk-in takes full control of the person, preventing him/her from questioning or recognising his/her true situation.
  — However, if you have the impression that you have, or could have such an affliction, please hang on here because it's likely in that event that you have what I call a failed partial walk-in. In functional terms a failed one isn't a partial walk-in at all, because in that particular case the attempt by the garbage / cacoprotean network to install the extraneous consciousness in the victim succeeded only in getting the would-be partial walk-in connected to him/her with regard to very basic attachment, but had failed to make the further connections that would enable it to have any control over him/her — in particular, to 'take over his mind'.

  In that case the victim's life experience would be blighted, but without being actually taken over and controlled by the supernumerary consciousness. Indeed, the latter would be in a desperate situation, trapped 'in' the body and unable to do anything about it, or to communicate with anyone. The poor unsuspecting 'host' person would thus be having a hard time, feeling the intruder's stress and anguish, and sense of being held as though in a straitjacket, and assuming that those were his/her own feelings and impressions, and even that its severe constraints were his/her own.

  I've sought to work out with deeper consciousness a solution to this type of issue, and allegedly a fix for it (in particular, releasing the 'foreign' consciousness so it can then die and reincarnate as a 'proper' human once more) is now being rolled out on a universal scale. Also, allegedly a similar fix for people with an actual partial walk-in is also being rolled out, but the work for that is more complex and would take longer to implement.

  In both those cases, most people would need to do some work to dissolve left-over patterns in order to get much practical benefit from that fix — but how much would be needed would depend on how long the person has had that issue; if it was only one to a few years the subjective issue might fall away almost at once, with little or no work done to speed things up.

  The true nature of 'the forces of darkness' and its interference and attacks.

 

• 'What Is'
  The postulated 'base level' of perceivable, dualistic, concept-based 'reality'. This is the 'universal' reality that's taken to underlie all the subjective versions of 'reality' that different people perceive because of the beliefs and illusory realities they're carrying. It also implicitly refers to the non-duality of fundamental consciousness itself, as that's the underlying true nature of 'What Is' (i.e., as far as anyone could tell). If people completely cleared themselves of all illusory realities, the reality that they perceive and experience would actually be 'What Is' — whatever that is!

  Indeed, 'What Is' is staring every one of us in the face the whole time, yet we never recognise it for what it is (sic).

  In practical terms, 'What Is' can only be a postulate, for, as far as my understanding goes, nobody would ever actually reach the degree of self-actualization where they'd actually perceive 'What Is' fully 100% without distortions, and so there can be nobody to honestly and accurately describe to us what undistorted 'What Is' is like — particularly as one would have no means of knowing if / when one had fully 'got there'!

  Indeed, the requisite very advanced level of self-actualization would almost certainly be quite a bit beyond anything one could sensibly regard as healthy, for the self-actualization process continued to its theoretical completion would have one totally ungrounded and effectively having terminated one's incarnation (i.e., one's life) — a pointless exercise, even though misguidedly aimed for in various spiritual traditions and guru teachings!

 

• work ethic

  A pointless and harmful assumed obligation to fill one's life with working for other people and not manifesting one's intrinsic freedom / joyfulness / clarity / creativity. If any of those are showing, the implication is that one is being 'lazy' and not working hard enough. I understand this oppressive outlook and mindset to be based in one of the primary archetypes, and, unsurprisingly, it's cultivated in people's minds by the garbage. You're supposed to live for, and be identified by, your work, and to see no intrinsic worth in yourself beyond that.

  If you have an interest outside your 'job', it's to be seen as just a 'hobby' (a demeaning term that devalues what may be the most valuable interest / activity in your life), and of no worth beyond being a personal pastime or 'indulgence'. If you're actually enjoying activities outside your employment, or particularly while having no employment, you're seen as lazy and bad, and viewed with opprobrium and often some degree of resentment ("I work my guts out for my living, and I pay my taxes — and so should you, you lazy time-waster! [/ sponger off the State]").

  I myself have been periodically disapproved of or indeed outright abused, for spending my time on projects like my literary writing, music composition, hiking, nature photography / sound recording, and of course the big project of developing and running this website for the benefit of others (including an incrementing number of saved lives), rather than spending my time instead on a 'proper job' benefiting next-to-nobody!

  The 'work ethic' is often referred to as the 'Christian work ethic', but in fact it's universal and has nothing specific to do with Christianity, though various religions use it as a means to try to keep control over people. In its extreme manifestations it leads to and is used to justify any type of slavery.

  Use of the word 'ethic' is dishonest rhetoric, because it implies that there's something ethical and therefore supposedly good and virtuous about working your guts out for an employer without regard to what you could really be giving to the community if you ever had the time and space to develop more worthwhile and beneficial interests and activities.

  In reality the 'work ethic' is most unethical, in its driving people into hopelessly degraded lifestyles and maintaining a general conformity pressure against stepping outside the 'work ethic' to live proper, human, fulfilled lives that develop and expand the life experience for oneself and others. It's thus always for dissolving, along with all other illusory realities and belief systems.
