Reflections

21.3.14

– What is the opposite of payback?

NOT forgiveness!

– “Undoing the destruction of pleasure” – thank you J.P!  😉

– The Second Awakening!

– Eros/libido – let the life-instinct prosper in us, & make us a positive energy in this dying world!

– The Pandora’s box has been opened! Controlled & channelled lust – even nuclear energy can be used to generate electricity! We need to learn (intellectual education) & adapt (physical self-control) so as to harness this fire to warm & brighten our lives…

Hmmm… The burning bush??
HOW can we say yes to this & still identify with the rejected Christ?!

Let the radical re-conversion & scandalous revolution continue & spread!!

– A thorough (inside-out) retraining is in order! Let’s GO……

Life can be so much MORE, when are just willing to LET GO for a while!!

This is our next revival! Let’s see how we can integrate it into our future and make it brighter……

– Teach me how to party –

Do it well, do it right!  😉

– Live according to your (true/deep/divine/spiritual/human) nature, & don’t let your faith-conscience or emotion-desire take over completely.

22.3.14

– But isn’t indulgence the precursor of addiction? Mmm… Not if you are mature!

– 70% – moderate & balance the flesh (sleep, food, sex, etc.) & spirit (prayer, study, service, etc.)

15% – feed the spirit & starve the flesh.

15% – feed the flesh & starve the spirit.

Equip the mind and strengthen the will to follow this pattern – based on Sabbath rhythm (5/7 + 1/7 + 1/7)

(Indulgence & abstinence should be equal)

– Joy > happiness > pleasure

– Holiness (character) » health (lifestyle) » positive effect (social contribution)
