Often we hear from NDEs that expressing PUL is what it is all about.  In one instance after another, it is not the accomplishments in life such as education or awards that seem highly prized "over there," but how loving you were, and what pure acts of kindness/love you expressed. 

It is interesting to me that donations to a charity or performing "good works," were not necessarily well thought of.  Very few of us are at the point where we can generate PUL in every situation.  So yeah, we get ticked off at one thing or another.  Some yell, blow off steam, etc.  But if you know the principles of heaven, you try to evaluate these things as they happen.  The little voice in the back of your head says - what more can I do to help/express love?

Yesterday, while walking down a hallway, a woman was asking for directions.  A careless nurse sent her in the wrong path......however, I was late for an appointment.  "Oh well,"  I mused, "she will likely figure it out soon enough."  But then I stopped.  I heard this.  Perhaps by accident.  No accidents?  "Excuse me Ma'am," you need to make your first right, then go straight down to get to that building....."  So I'd be another minute or two late - big deal.

We are given opportunities to show kindness, and express PUL every day - in little ways.  The fact that we are all not Christ-like beacons constantly serving others does not mean that we can't be mindful of our opportunities, and let our choices actively choose PUL. 

Buddhism, I believe uses the term "mindfulness," to describe this sort of thing.  As I see it, there are two types of manifestations on earth of PUL, that which springs spontaneously, and that which comes when we are mindful of the right path even if we don't walk on it all the time as yet.

So let's hear it for the little voice in the back of our heads, and the mindfulness we all have to be mindful of the daily opportunities to express PUL in almost any earthly situation.

somebody reminded me of an affirmation "what would love do now?" or what does this person need now? I think we all want the same thing.

The question is, if someone knows they should be loving, but doesn't feel loving - what then?  Take the person who does good works because they are told that this is the right thing to do.  But if, in a random situation, with no one looking, they wouldn't care less about another person (were it not for the implied spiritual gain in doing good), then their good works may not mean very much.

Yet if they don't "feel" PUL at all times, but endeavor to act lovingly (without the feeling), is that better?  Obviousy, it is to the recipient of the loving action.  But are they being untrue to themselves in their own current spiritual development (thank you Polonius from Shakespeare)?

I believe the key is that a person needs to come to the point where he or she wants to live according to love. When a person wants to do so, he or she will strive to do so. If a person takes part in charitable activities without being motivated by love, there is always a chance that he or she will feel empathy and compassion for the people he or she helps. This could help them move in the right direction.

I work as a volunteer at a hospital. Sometimes when I do the hour commute from my work to the hospital I volunteer at, I'm not in the mood. But once I start helping people my focus becomes directed towards them, and all is good. I notice that if anything is troubling me as I drive to the hospital, I forget about the trouble once I start thinking of others.

A good movie that sort of relates, is "No where in Africa" (not "Out of Africa" another good film). It provides an example of a lady changing for the better, due to exposure. Sometimes we just have to put ourselves in the place of others.

So Matthew, what do you think of this person?

I heard of her before but forgot about her until I went to the Yolanda King website....

Hi Bets,

I haven't thought about biorhythms for years.  I'd like to have the instructions if you'd send them to me.  Thanks!

Quote:


Yes, each chakra corresponds to the level of each subtle body on the level of that body.  The purpose of the chakra is to intake energy from the universal energy field that surrounds and interpenetrates every living thing.  Each subtle body penetrates through each of the levels below it.  For example, the first (etheric) subtle body penetrates through the physical body and extends out from the skin about 1/2" to 1", the next subtle body penetrates through the physical body, then through the etheric body and extends out from the skin for about 6" to 8"; the third subtle body penetrates through the physical, 1st and 2nd subtle bodies and so on to the deepest levels of our being.

When we raise our vibrations to interact on the higher levels, we can participate in the consciousness of these levels.  I define OBE in much the same way as RAM where we follow a line of consciousness.  Our consciousness can then interact with the consciousness of the world of consciousness on the various levels.

Experiencing and living PUL has much to do with how we allow the energy of our core to flow through all of our subtle bodies or what we usually call our aura or energy field as we greet the events that occur in our life.  Many times when we experience negative thinking / emotions we try to block or distort this energy flow.  Blocking the energy flow is what causes us to reduce the experience of PUL.  And this is directly related to our health.  The more we allow the energy of our core to flow freely, the healthier life we live on all levels of our being.  And the easier it is to interact with the higher levels of our being and the consciousness of those worlds.

Love, Kathy

Great thread Doc! There's a lot to be said for the said for the cultivation and expression of PUL. PUL with respect to self expression and self reflection is of a healthy importance to all aspects of the creative process.

It is the ultimate foundation for balance/harmony if used in the right light.

PUL,
