For my part, I admit I am a bastard, and said so awhile ago. And, I have really only been admonishing myself in my ramblings here. I have always known that. The only thing I have really said is that intent must be married to action. Very simple. The variaties of how to do that are endless. Physicalized Intent. Create reality. Simple. The reactions to that were not so simple. I am fine with the discord. To each their own. No one is right or wrong. But if there is no discourse, then there is no discourse. That is simply the way of it. |

Freyja (OP) User ID: 3454 United States 01/11/2006 02:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In the Jewish tradition, intention, kavanah, is an essential part of meaningful action. The term kavanah comes from the Hebrew root meaning to direct, intend, focus. The rabbis were very clear that living a meaningful Jewish life involves combining both the actions we do and the intention we bring to those actions. For example, the rabbis stressed that prayer was not just about the act of reading or saying the words of a prayer. If you did not pray with kavanah, actively thinking about the words you were saying, you have not fulfilled your obligation to pray. So too, in the Mishna, there's a wonderful passage about the commandment to hear the shofar blown on Rosh Hashanah. The rabbis ask an interesting question: What if you were outside walking to shul and you heard the shofar being blown and then you realized it was a shofar and not, say, a fog horn? They pose the question: have you fulfilled your obligation to hear the shofar? The answer that they give is an emphatic “No!” In order to fulfill your obligation to hear the shofar, you have to actually intend to hear it before you hear it. That is, meaningful action is not just something that happens haphazardly. Meaningful action is the confluence of a thoughtful decision about what you want to do coupled with the action of doing it. |

I think you've been reading something very different in the thread that I have. I haven't seen anyone on the thread mention not appying intention/knowing to creating in life. All I've seen is their application of intent is different than the typical creative outlets. Who are the tribal natives? And why would they be upset? Are you being sarcastic? If so, that is typically a way to drive people away from you, not build bridges to heal. Then again...maybe you would like others who you don't understand to go away??? |

As far as healing...I have healed myself and that is my contribution to the planet.If every single person would just heal themselves instead of concerning themselves with being a saviour to everyone else that would be an accomplishment that would affect a change so monumental that ALL of life would respond. 9034 have you heard what happens when one person accepts responsibility and heals themself? |

I think I'm figuring out the tribal natives comment. You were probably speaking of the larger community, not just the people on this thread. You are indeed right that most of humanity want's to stay with the old ways. They see them as the tried and true, but I don't think they're going to keep "working" much longer. ...not that they ever worked well anyway. |
