Resignation and desperation are the dominant moods in the world nowadays.
It’s late fall. The trees have shed their leaves in the Northeast where I live, the heat has been on for weeks now, and already we get up in dark, and end work in dark.
And people are sitting on their fat asses… doing nothing. Have given up. Resigned.
When they look, the future is gloom and doom.
Today I learned television was invented and had live broadcasts in 1927. in Europe and in America.
In Hungary I saw my first television, the machine, not even a program when I was seven years old, in 1954. The television was in the Prime minister’s house. Her daughter was in my kindergarten class. The whole kindergarten class walked to their house and ogled the television.

Millions of pages quote this meme, but everybody understand it differently. Because we, culturally defined humans, we have no idea what is the game, and how we play it. No clue what to pay attention and what is relevant to the how.
No distinction.
The dude who coined the meme, Grantland Rice was a sports writer. He made more money that the people he wrote about. Was he happy? Was he fulfilled? Hell no. Couldn’t be…

The ground of your being is the dominant way you are… to which you return, like returning home.
Religion, spiritual teachers have been duping you. They say that the ground of your being is “being a spiritual being, having a human experience.” That is horse shit, and largely the reason no one has been able to carve out an enjoyable life with that principle.
Some issues cannot be fixed. One such issue is your identity, the identity you built and have been polishing. The ground of your being. The dance floor of your life.

When human arrogance sticks its feet in the door truth escapes
The average truth value of medical and body science is 3%. The 97% combines what we don’t know, and what arrogance says… and is not true.
Today I had luck on my side, and I was taken to a site and to a ‘technology’ that has a higher truth value. It is a whopping 10%. Which means 90% is b.s.

In my first incident, my defining incident, I was stupid.
That is what was wrong with me. That is why what happened happened to me. Because I was stupid.
And to my utter mortification, this morning I discovered that it just went underground, but it still operates me a lot of the time. Maybe not always, but enough.
So what’s wrong with that? After all being smart is good, isn’t it?

In the Wisdom Course I took more than 25 years ago, between Saturday and Sunday we had a homework. To write an autobiography through a filter of our choice.
The filter could be where you lived, who you live with, your love affairs, your schooling, your health, the sports you participated in… anything.
I don’t remember what filter I used then, but in this article I’ll do a little of that homework through the filter: depression.

I am noticing a phenomenon that is both interesting and terrifying:
When people include themselves in their cone of vision, in their visual field when they need to answer a question, give a view of something, they literally become stupid. Moronic.

Let me start with the story of a famous thief…
Arthur Barry was described by Time as ‘The slickest second-story man in the East,’ truly one of the most famous jewel thieves of all times.
In his years of crime, he committed as many as 150 burglaries and stole jewels valued between $5 and $10 million.
He seldom robbed from anyone not listed in the Social Register and often did his work in… get this…
A tuxedo!
On an occasion or two, when caught in the act of a crime by a victim, he charmed his way out of being reported to the police.
Like most people who engage in a life of crime, he was eventually caught, convicted and served 25 years in prison.
Following his release, he worked as a counterman in a roadside restaurant on the East Coast for $50 a week.
A newspaper reporter found him and interviewed him about his life.
After telling about the thrilling episodes of his life he came to the conclusion of the interview saying:
‘I am not good at morals. But early in my life I was intelligent and clever, and I got along well with people.
‘I think I could have made something of my life, but I didn’t.
‘So when you write the story of my life, when you tell people about all the burglaries, don’t leave out the biggest one of all… Don’t just tell them I robbed Jesse Livermore, the Wall Street baron or the cousin of the King of England. You tell them Arthur Barry robbed… Arthur Barry.
Arthur Barry realized — too late –that he’d robbed himself of time.
We all only have so much time to achieve our dreams and aspirations.
I don’t know what your dreams and aspirations are — but I do know that for you to achieve them you’ll likely need to get the cooperation and help of your vertical self. Your higher self.
This means that you are going to need to know how get out of your horizontal self, get into your vertical self, and get the cooperation and supportive help of your vertical self…
…and the EASIEST way to do that is to connect to Source… that is on the same vertical as your ‘inner coach’, the Observing Self. And no, it is not your mind. Your mind is NOT your inner coach, though it pretends to be one. Your mind is the one that tells you that you are entitled… or that you are stupid… that you will never amount to anything, no matter what you do.
Your inner coach is your vertical self, and to locate it, you need to be able to use the Tangerine Method to connect to Source. (Alternatively, I think, you can do it while you are connected to the Big Bundle… but I am not sure. I can’t test it because I am always connected.)
It doesn’t have to be hard either. You just need the right tool and training to teach you how to do it.
You see, most things that are out there (I say most, because I haven’t seen everything yet. But for all the courses that I have seen, what I am saying here is true), most teachers, most training, most coaching, most meditation, most guru stuff, operate on and strengthen your horizontal sel

If you find yourself on the wrong road… trace your way back to where you went astray… and choose a different road.
Why? Because trying to go across to where you really wanted to go, without going back, is fraught with death traps.
Humanity, some seven thousand years ago, took a wrong turn. In just a few words: they started to replace reality with word pictures in the mind. Concepts.
