In fact, your mind is your enemy... youre wrong about the mind. the mind is the key. the problem is not our thoughts. modern mans problems root from the fact we dont have access to our sub conscious or super consciousness therefore we mistaken our conscious thoughts as our solely primary superior identity. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5131233 through exercise and control of our mind we can begin to identify ou real self from our non self. some of ou consciousness and ego is part of our real identity. similarly not all of our sub conscious thoughts are our true identity. i suspect the bulk of realization of ones true identity does reside in the super cobsciousness though. this is interesting. i believe that one can control the subconscious mind through controlling our dreams. that sounds insane, i know. but i believe it. |

You have to practice an open mind, take in lots of information, and then use your natural instincts and intuition to make sense of it and decide what really rings true with your heart.

In fact, your mind is your enemy... I completely agree with you. I started hearing voices, and lemme tell you my subconscious "mind/ego" was in no way shape or form my friend. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if it really were a negative entity injecting their ideas into me either that or I'm incredibly self destructive. When I listen to my heart, it is full of love and acceptance. There is a silent understanding/communication. I remember being in my mothers woumb, right before she went into labor. The first moment was zen and peace, and then my mind woke up and there was a constant emptiness and restlessness. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14081862 +1 Thank you! |

Sometimes it is good to take some distance from something for a whole so you can get a different perspective. You can take that to an extreme and see everything in perspective and never just judge and spit out words without a pause. Don't know if that is good. But for sure many people in the world should do it a bit more. |

In fact, your mind is your enemy... The Power of Now was his first book. The views he has in A New Earth are exactly the same message. He just seems to have refined his understanding of the information and presented it in a more eloquent way. So, to answer your question, both books are saying the same message and don't contradict one another, but A New Earth is very well written and more of a "how to" book instead of mostly questions and answers from his conferences. I hope that helped. Peace |

As I hinted to in one post earlier, we are being bombarded right now we hate, fear and anger from an evil group that I will only refer to as our adversaries. They are "hacking" or introducing thoughts into our minds that cause us to be afraid and to see the world as a dangerous and scary place. The bombardment comes from TV, music, cell phones and even from radio frequencies from all around us. It is being increased at an enormous rate now. That is because people are beginning to awaken and they feel it has to be stopped at all cost. It scares them to death... I know, I know. This is a big jump for many to grasp.
