Such a credential would be physical age: “Well young man, I am twenty years your senior, I think I know a thing or two.” Or, “You’re talking to a decorated veteran, show some respect!” Or, “I’ve lived a good life, had a lucrative career, raised three upstanding children, and am a grandparent to boot! I think my opinion should matter!” This tendency to take shelter in some kind of superior, if wholly unrelated and even irrelevant credential, is widespread and sometimes very problematic. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption117 views0 answers0 votesCreator described the ego in a previous GetWisdom LIVE program as follows: “The ego is a limited vessel, a limited capability that puts the self, first. As such, it is kind of like having a suit of armor that is self-protective. It might be awkward to wear, inconvenient, even drag you down from the sheer weight and inconvenience of suiting up before you make an excursion where you are at risk, but a potential lifesaver if you are attacked and would otherwise be vulnerable and perish. The suit of armor gives you a fighting chance at least. The ego, in the same way, is more like a weapon in being quite focused on your supremacy. In a sense, it is your last refuge to maintain an advantage and hold your ground to stand up to those who would bully you or intimidate, and provide a wherewithal to weather the storm.” The Dunning-Kruger effect appears to be the ego fulfilling this very function in a crude, imprecise, but very forceful and compelling manner. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption129 views0 answers0 votesCreator has previously discussed five principal selves that make up the human being—the deep subconscious, subconscious, cellular consciousness, primary or conscious self, and the higher self. What about the ego? Can it be, should it be, characterized as a “sixth self?” And if not, why not?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption148 views0 answers0 votesWe have learned that some skills, muscle memory, and other proclivities we call natural talent, can be recorded in the akashic records, and re-introduced into the cellular consciousness of a new body in a new incarnation. This is how natural talent can be carried over from lifetime to lifetime. What about the ego? Is it also recorded in the akashic records and re-introduced in some fashion to a new incarnation? Is it, like karma and physical talent, left behind when one becomes a light being but re acquired upon a new incarnation (so the incarnating soul can essentially pick up where they left off)? Is the ego truly left behind when the departing consciousness enters the light and is it one of the big reasons there is more wisdom and clarity as light beings? Or is the ego of a particular lifetime utterly lost upon transition, and new incarnations start off with an essentially blank ego?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption121 views0 answers0 votesCreator has said that the angels have egos. It would be assumed then that light beings also have egos of some sort. Is there a difference between the ego of a physical incarnation, and the ego of a light being?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption132 views0 answers0 votesThe ego does not appear to be brain-dependent, as lost soul spirits, when encountered by human victims and healers and psychics, seem to display lots of functioning ego characteristics. Can Creator comment on the ego’s reliance or lack of reliance on the physical brain?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption118 views0 answers0 votesAt what age does the ego really take hold in a new incarnation? What can parents and caregivers do to help foster the healthy development of their child’s ego?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption129 views0 answers0 votesOver-inflated egos and the Dunning-Kruger effect seem to represent pressing healing needs for much of humanity. Can Creator share how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the best tools for bringing about the highest and best form of healing?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption115 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “There are many who find a good alibi far more attractive than an achievement. For an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove our worth anew each day: we have to prove we are as good today as we were yesterday. But when we have a valid alibi for not achieving anything we are fixed, so to speak, for life. Moreover, when we have an alibi for not writing a book, painting a picture, and so on, we have an alibi for not writing the greatest book and not painting the greatest picture. Small wonder that the effort expended and the punishment endured in obtaining a good alibi often exceed the effort and grief requisite for the attainment of a most marked achievement.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs179 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “The impulse of power is to turn every variable into a constant.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs214 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “It is clear that a society in the grip of fear, is not free no matter how numerous the freedoms its constitution guarantees. There are already many people in this country (America) who would surrender certain of their civil rights for a feeling of personal security.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs198 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “There is perhaps no better way of measuring the natural endowment of a soul, than by its ability to transmute dissatisfaction into a creative impulse. The genuine artist is as much dissatisfied as the revolutionary. Yet how diametrically opposed are the products each distills from his dissatisfaction.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs186 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “The genuine creator creates something that has a life of its own, something that can exist and function without him … With the noncreative it is the other way around: in whatever they do, they arrange things so that they themselves become indispensable.” How can Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol help to transform us into “genuine creators” rather than fearful controllers?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs187 views0 answers0 votesThere was a young man in his youth who suffered more than his fair share of tragedy. He had two siblings die in childhood, and a third disappear after running away and becoming homeless. He lived at home with his parents well into his middle-aged adulthood and worked a modest low-paying job as a hospital orderly. Yet, he saved enough money to buy a new high-end muscle car that was a favorite with collectors. The enigmatic thing was that he would spend up to two hours every day washing and detailing the vehicle. Can Creator share what purpose this behavior served for this individual, as the car certainly did not require daily washing?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma251 views0 answers0 votesWe know pain is a protective mechanism purposefully engineered into biological creatures. And we further know that when the ability to feel pain is removed via nerve damage or some other compromise, that the risk of damaging the physical body grievously goes up almost exponentially. One never appreciates pain more, than when they can’t feel it. Fear is a similar protective mechanism that is not just “biological” but spiritual as well. Has Creator ever experimented with creating “fearless” beings, and what was the result?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness237 views0 answers0 votes
