WRY: I am going to be going into this in more detail, but your question is
so interesting that I would like to put out something for whoever is
interested to think about over night. EVERYTHING about being wise is about
knowing how to construct with material, as presenting material that another
human being can assimate it into his functioning in a way that is balanced
is an act of love, which is always original and creative. To begin, it is
important to engage the attention and then present something to do in such a
way that the person discovers it for himself. If anyone has ever done this
for you, you will know what I am speaking of. This man is your true brother.
Every learning situation must be alive and uniquely constructed according to
the conditions and circumstances that actually exist, not those that one
would like to exist or fantasies to exist. In order to do this, the lover
needs to be able to see what is. The person who cannot see himself cannot
see anything, as he will be using what comes in from the outside world,
reflecting his own manifestations, as a filter. This means he will filter
out the details that show him information about himself he cannot see. IF I
see this happening, with someone, though I am not necessarily saying this is
the case with anyone in particular, I have to tell him, but since I cannot
tell him, I will need to show him. This is done by setting up the opposite
of what he is doing and exaggerating the details. In order to respond, a
void needs to be filled, the hole that is created by the excess of
exaggeration. When this is filled in, there is learning, not by being told,
but by having experienced. One could say this is dishonest, but we must bear
in mind that in the original manifestation of whomever, a box was "created"
for ME, and I may have to make this hole to get out of it. I am not the only
one on here who has done this. Bill has done it for me. When he did I was
glad. Maybe you are doing it, too.

Material is the key to everything. There are many esoteric symnbols for
material. One of them is fruit, but you would have to investigate this
deeply to see the profound significance. Of course the cooperation of
spirit, mind-mind and matter" includes material, as everything is material,
but it is important to hone in on specifics as then a new meaning may
appear. Examine my material carefully, as there will always be something in
there for he who seeks treasure. Without discrimination it is pointless to
be whole, if this is even possible, as without the development of
discrimination, one will only know how to speak in vague abstracts.which
will never strike a certain inner chord. Remember, that to tune an
instrument is never hit or miss, but very specific. I can think it is tuned
or sayit is tuned, but unless it is actually finely tuned, the music will
not affect me in my deepest inner recess.. Something to think about over
night. Gotta go now. Wry
