01. MY THREE POSITIVES.
1. It's stormy all around, but I don't care; I'm preparing for an exam.
2. Negative stress motivates positive physical activity.
3. I've found a working cramming method.
02. MY REFLECTIONS AND DISCOVERIES.
The manifestations of the Higher Self are absolutely free. Not the Higher Self, which is somewhere out there, beyond time and space, free and omnipotent, but also its manifestations?
These manifestations in May are prana, which manifests as Sat-Chit-Ananda.
But it seems that previous experience suggests otherwise.
Take, for example, such a manifestation as our body: if you overeat, you'll get a belly; the law of karma is inexorable.
If you've gone beyond the law of karma, then you can probably eat without gaining weight (if only the desire to eat remains).
It turns out that our manifestations aren't particularly free, at first glance. But this can be explained by our prehistory; perhaps we previously wanted our bellies to grow from food, so we could survive in times of famine. And if this has been going on for a long time, then now we need to invest the same amount of effort to change it.
The law of karma is even more interesting. Are we for justice, for people to get what they deserve? But that's the law of karma, cause and effect. And if you untie the connection between cause and effect, does communism turn out to be "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs"?
But it's unreasonable to desire fat deposits instead of desiring food availability. However, food is very accessible now; there are no deaths from starvation; they've apparently figured it out, but our bellies still continue to grow. Shall we willfully eliminate fat deposits so we can look better and avoid health problems from excess fat?
What if times of famine come and we don't survive?
If only we knew... but everything came down to ignorance.
Therefore, first and foremost, we must willfully express knowledge, and then decide what to willfully express next.
