thats never a good mantra - its a fleeting thing and changes often based on the needs - rent money vs. old ladies, etc
Check. Check. I do not understand the meaning of that phrase.
Check. Check.
Check. Check.
Doing the best I can. You should see my closet - check!
Nope. Check.
CHECK.
Nope. I’m responsible for raising my kids to be good people and I’m responsible for my cat.
Check.
To the extent that anyone chooses anything, check.
To the extent that anyone controls anything, check. Tru dat.
If you mean generally wishing people in my life well, sure, most of the people, most of the time - check.
To the extent that anyone can be at any given moment in time, check.
Nope. Some people think I’m a real jerk. Some of it is deserved. Some not. I have no control over what others thing about me. I feel the same about others. So can’t check this box. Sorry.
It’s more a detente, but sure, check on both.
Knowledge as defined by whom?
Again, as defined by whom?
Check and check.
I do not understand the meaning of this.
No, but it’s a process. Check.
Open? Hell, I’m married to her. But she’s not perfect. Just perfect for me.

Check. Check.
Subjective but, check.

What’s next?
Whatever works for you.

Kick back and enjoy the ride. Aloha
Have you ever consider a career writing for fortune cookies, because that response was about as helpful as the cookie I got with my chicken chow main last Wednesday.
Very funny.
As you pointed out above, my answers are simplistic.
Well, I’m simply a simplistic person. I went thru a long and dreary complex period where I struggled to juggle tmi and deny my cognitive dissonance :smack:. I’m over it.
Aloha
missed the edit What did the fortune cookie have to say?
That is one way to put it.
You could rob and give to charity if you wish but I don’t recommend it. Giving to charity is not a credit if you do it to get a credit. The only thing that gives you credit is love.
Anything you in love is a plus everything else is graded on your intent.
According to your answers I don’t think you are ready yet. The idea is not to analyze them but it simply read them twice a day. Hundreds of people have used this group to good effect. There will be no second step until you have done these for at least two months.
Well love don’t cure cancer so I’m speaking strictly from a Robin Hood sense of do-goodery. In other words, I don’t have thousands of dollars to give to hospitals for sick kids and I don’t want the credit for myself. In fact, I wish to remain very anonymous from any authorities like the Sheriff and his deputies.
Ah. So it’s a Pass/Fail sort of thing. Got it.
What’s special about a two month minimum? Aren’t there any advanced students who move through quicker than others? Also, what if my answers change from one day to the next? Is this a sort of Zen thing where the answers don’t actually matter, repetition is the thing?
If you’re interested in moving things along, ask your inner guide sincerely to be put on the fast track. Think you’ve been tested in the past? Watch what you wish for. Aloha
I don’t know what an “inner guide” means. Do you mean the voice inside your head that usually tells you that you ought not to rob liquor stores even if the money is for a sick kids hospital? If so, yeah… I’ll talk to him.
It has to do with the post I originally replied to, which was talking about how you were certain of something because you experienced it. If you’ve ever seen a magic trick or an optical illusion, then you’ve experienced something which you would be wrong to be certain of.

Better read that again, I just said their experience would change their perspective. The imagery was my experience.

Better read that again yourself; you’re claiming that you know their experience would change. When you’ve claimed that you can’t know anyone else’s experience. There is a contradiction. You cannot both say “I do not know what another person’s experince is like” and “This is what a person would experience in this situation”.
I don’t understand the fear of authority, but I think you would be giving for the right reasons and that reason is concern, caring and love.
Repetition of affirmations will bring about a gradual growth of self-confidence, self-approval and self-love. This will prepare you for the reading and meditation to follow.
Just forget it. Either I am not explaining it so you can understand or you just don’t understand.
Sufficient quantitative change always results in qualitative change.
Aloha
You’re learning.
