Observations, comments, perspectives

with the vitalistic universal life force that is Reiki
The common idea that human beings
are born to suffer is nonsense. It is possible to fully acknowledge your pain and suffering, and then get rid of it in moments.
How?
Identify the meaning you are giving that is causing the pain
and suffering, and then dissolve the meaning, thereby dissolving the pain and suffering
MORPHIC FIELDS
Dr Rupert Sheldrake:
The morphic fields of mental activity are not confined to the insides of our heads.
They extend far beyond our brain though intention and attention.
We are already familiar with the idea of fields extending beyond the material objects in which they are rooted: for example
magnetic fields extend beyond the surfaces of magnets; the earth's gravitational field extends far beyond the surface of the
earth, keeping the moon in its orbit; and the fields of a cell phone stretch out far beyond the phone itself. Likewise the
fields of our minds extend far beyond our brains.
Rupert Sheldrake,
one of the world's most innovative biologists is best known for his theory of morphic fields and morphic resonance, which
leads to a vision of a living, developing universe with its own inherent memory.He worked in developmental biology at Cambridge
University.

Shift For Healing And Wholeness: Biology Revisited

Introduction
Is our biological lay-out an imprint of the spirit, forms and shapes of human spirituality,
made visible for the purpose of identifications and distinctions in the dimensions of the material realities of the universe?
It would seem so if Rupert Sheldrake, who erupted on the scientific
world with a new "biology", is read with a theological eye. Or, is Sheldrake re-visiting orthodoxy anew through
his study of biology? There is no doubt, whatever the case may be, that his attempts are endeavours to bridge between the
two worlds - the spiritual and the material - to join them in one, whole system for the purpose of healing the "eternal
division" between the divine (theology) and the human (the natural).
He also attempts to bridge the gap between the supernatural (quantumphysics), the creationist and the scientist (religion
and science), and to inform us that the spiritual world is not only "real", and manifests itself in tangible patterns,
but that its imprints are also achievable, possible and observable. He endeavours to do all that through scientific, observable,
measurable and demonstrative approaches to the spiritual - by rethinking and restudying the behaviour of organisms as inherent,
coded patterns in the world of our biology.
The spiritual person is
a person whose spirit is informed by the reality of the nature of the house in which he resides, who at once knows that his
residence is temporary, and that he abides in contingency.
The house
is not of his own making, and though his years are numbered, he knows not the end from the beginning. He is a creature of/in
time and nature, subject to his need for food and physical necessities, necessities for which the spirit anguishes in its
attempt to co-exist in such subjugation.
Man is spiritual because
he can transcend, yet at once, is dead in his living. Man is the only creature that knows he will die, but knows not his death.
