Hi all
The last couple of days I've had a computer problem which hopefully is straightened out now (although i won't know for sure until tomorrow!). But as with all such crises, this one comes at the right time - in terms of my spiritual development and guidance - and gives a message. So it is upto me to listen to what the message is. In fact I have been thinking for a while that I really need to spend more time on my books and less time online. Already my theta work (I'm just using the term "theta" for convenience, as I've already merged the technique with my own revelation based on elements of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother's teachings) has been transforming my subcsonscious, clearing out all the built-up dregs and self-limitations. One of the effects is that I have less internet "addiction", another is that my speech is more fluent. Although this is maybe all this is only as long as I continue with the work; really I need to be able to take a big perspective in things, then I'll know for sure.
In any case I took these computer glitches to mean I should spend less time online, and more on my books. I also want to travel, but I would like to get at least one book ready and sent off before then.
Interestingly, after logging on today I noticed my associate Robert's comments after my previous blog post. And really what he is saying is exactly what I feel, so I'm taking this as a confirmation and encouragement.
I might work on my book on my other computer, which doesn't have an internet connection, so that would help remove the distraction of wanting to go online. I have enough material now to be able to write most of my book(s) without researching on Wikipedia etc. So I'm going to really go full bore with my esoteric books. Most of the material is done; it is just a matter of piecing it together. And since my ideas keep changing, i have to just submit them as provisional statements. The simplest thing may be to (a) finish material I write a whoile back, and (b) build on material published online, e.g. on Frank's Integral World website.
I'll still be online now and then (computer allowing!), but will be spending more time working on my books, or working on myself, or going cyvcling or other wholesome things.
The Internet is still where things are all happening; the advance wave of the techno-noosphere, but I've been here 8 years and now I need to connect with other areas; with my writing, and with the Earth and nature. But I'll still maintain a presence in cyberspace if at all possible; only not so constant, in terms of time commitment, a presence.
