"The situation itself is never the problem, it is your false ideas about the situation, that is the problem." (Byron Katie, timeless).

There's nothing to fear about the situation (eg. Intrusion) itself. There's only compassion, and beings (eg. intruders) that ask to be helped, and beings (eg. guides & helpers) that wish to help. And you, are the bridge that makes the help possible.

Interesting story you tell.
About 3 years ago (summer '02) I heard tell (never met her or knew her) about a 23-y/o girl who had recently died of melanoma. Sad story, stuck with me for some reason.
Anyway, I'd tripped over the story, literally, when I was looking for the classified ads and stumbled on the obituary page. For some reason I saw the photo (young, good looking, out-of-place on an obit page) and read the obituary.
Anyway got me to checking out my skin (I'm a bit of a hypochondriac) and found a funny looking mole on my shoulder. Went to the doc, had it sliced off.
Sure enough, super-early stage melanoma. Got it in time, no problem...
Then here I am going through some old papers to toss in the trash a few months ago (I almost never look at the front page anymore, too depressing) and I see on the front page, the story of this girl!
Needless to say, the "superstitious hick" in me went into overdrive for a little while...
But then, weird coincidences, are the story of my life, so I ended up being not too surprised.
Some might say, this wasn't an accident (in the story, it said she hoped "no young person would ever have to die of cancer again"... it was a story about a foundation in her name) that I stumbled on her obit, got worried and caught my own melanoma early.
But that's absurd. Why would a beautiful, happy, future-is-bright 23-y/o with her whole life ahead of her, have to die so a washed-up, tired-out, cigarette-addicted 34-y/o heap of gangrene like me could have a few more decades of life?
This is just another reason I'd prefer to believe in a random, mechanistic reality... these sort of idiocies wouldn't be entertained by credulous fools...

Oh, I'm sorry, George...

I was talking to B-male...

I agree with everything you say, 'couse that is the way you are seeing things (in this hologram of life)...

sorry again to intrude on your post...



postscriptum: I'm sure Beverly is on the safe place and enjoying her afterlife... I think you should free yourself of her karma and live your own (holographic) life as best as you can!!!! She would agree with this too... I think...

Marilyn,

I got a hot passage for you; see if you can guess where it came from?  I have been revisiting an old friend of mine, one who we have discussed before.  Here goes:

“Strive for happiness as lesser men strive for power: and remember that love is both the seed and the flower of joy.  Let your actions be such that if they were done to you they would increase your happiness.  Love others that they may love you: and love yourself that you may love others.”

Love to sweet person, Jean

Marilyn,

This was from Amenemhet's speech and known as  the First Law.  Anyhow he spoke these words on being chosen as Pharaoh during the New Kingdom period as Joan Grant's far memory recalled it. She was known as Ra-ab Hotep and was part of a movement called the Eyes of Horus.
Of couse, she phrased it in modern words but the essence of the message is old.  Talk about going full cycle in approx. 5,000 years.

Believe it or not.

Love, Jean

Some of your questions had already been answered but you are not trying to apply the examples we gave you to answer your on questions.

So here we go again.

We tend to repeat some mistakes during our lifetimes, so the great architect developed a system that assures we will not stop growing till we get there.

When you destroy your physical body or “wound” your consciousness (on purpose due your antics) it generates kind of unbalance at your energetic and due that your “soul” is unable to create a perfectly healthy body to your next lifetime. So in this case you would likely going to be born with some kind of “imperfection” and due that you would go through some experiences that (ironically?) would give you a chance to learn exactly what you need to know to avoid doing the same thing again.
This system avoids one of simple stops at the growing process and help us go faster till de level of development were we have the control of the situation  and  pain is no longer necessary.

(Believe some times we are kind of laze. )

PS: Your point of view is so important to me because it makes me check on my own to see if I have the answer, so please, give us a little more time)
