awareness to PEACE

"Murder all those thoughts that keeps you from awakening. Yes! Kill off those enemies that continually try to surface and cause mental war inside your mind. Go in silence and summon the Christ warrior who will destroy all those lower vibrant thoughts rising out of your sub-conscious mind..." - Ebeb Bee

“Is the point of internal spiritual battles annihilation of any part, or all of our human nature?

I ask because in your words, your learning you shared, “…Go in silence and summon the Christ warrior who will destroy all those lower vibrant thoughts rising out of your sub-conscious mind…” In my mind I understand a reference to the lower chakras or energy forms within is what you are talking about. Those energies come with us into this life. They compose Life.

I may have misinterpreted your meanings, but I paused awhile wondering if the religious influence here comes from a Western Christian practice of self-flagellation? It is the image your words, “…those lower vibrant thoughts rising out of your sub-conscious mind…” conjured up in my thinking that makes the association with those energy forms we cannot rid ourselves of, but can learn from, and evolve from merging, as we do, with those lower energies so integral a part of our spiritual development.” – Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

“It is apparent and illustrated in this artist's rendition of hand to hand combat that all warriors cannot know their flank's and their rear's dangers specifically. Knowing danger surrounds is often enough to protect the flanks and the rear. Most effective in external and internal battles are the relationships with our allies, who guard our flanks and take up the rear guard. Without heightened senses, honesty, clarity and martial skills battles are lost before they are won.

Increased knowledge of strategy, I learned over time, deepens the lighter, more reflective times, and moods warriors need to gauge progress while resting. During the respites knowledge takes on new meanings, adapts to itself the connectors, the connections between right action and intent. In a final analysis, of sorts, war and battles are great teachers of the human condition(s). If the lessons and the scars teach anything productive and deep it has to lead towards peace, and what peace means in the deepest sense of the word, and the word is power.” © Gregory E.

"We must first be mummified (clothe in skin) then we must be resurrected. Are body is the MUMMY and are essence is us the SOULS. Once we fully awaken ourselves we will become resurrected inside of the human body(mummy corpse) yet we are spiritually activated and intune with the divine source.... The SOUL Lives!" - Ebeb Bee
