Several studies have found that an average person is lied to from 10 to 200 times a day – mostly just to keep a conversation going, to avoid conflict, or to establish a connection with someone.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divine Guidance275 views0 answers0 votesBarry Ritholz said, “Little white lies are told by humans all the time. Indeed, lying is often how we get through each day in a happy little bubble. We spend time and energy rationalizing our own behaviors, beliefs, and decision-making processes.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divine Guidance248 views0 answers0 votesDale Carnegie wrote the multi-million bestseller, How to Win Friends and Influence People. Advocates would say that Carnegie taught a method of manipulating people that created “win-win” scenarios, where both the manipulated and manipulators benefited. The detractors would say Carnegie’s methods can be used to screw people. Any kind of indirect manipulation is problematic, as it arguably violates free will, especially if used to encourage “uninformed” decisions. Hypnotist and Researcher Dick Sutphen wrote of Carnegie in his book, Radical Spirituality, “The Carnegie Course teaches you to say what will work to get what you want. Isn’t that being phony or a hypocrite? Forget sincerity, forget honesty. Forget being real. Carnegie teaches you to be a diplomat and wear a mask. Masks are the fear that who and what you are isn’t adequate, so you pretend to be somebody else.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divine Guidance267 views0 answers0 votesSutphen, additionally, said this about Carnegie techniques, “If you use Carnegie techniques to win friends, the friendship has to be based upon a two-way manipulation. You pretend to be the mask to attain friendship and they will be your friend as long as you wear it. What happens when your mask slips and they find out who you really are? Do you need any relationship or association so badly that you’re willing to repress your real self in order to attain it?” Many would answer YES – they have a mortgage to pay, and must wear the mask in order to stay employed. Sutphen was an independent businessman and had more freedom in that regard.

His wife never learned of it and was still ignorant of it when he sought Frankl’s advice. Dr. Frankl implored him NOT to tell her. His reason for doing so was because he believed that the man truly loved his wife and had no desire to traumatize her. Based on what he knew of the man’s wife, he was convinced that there was little to no chance of the wife receiving the news without drawing the false conclusion that he did not love her, and consequently would not be able to forgive him. So he attempted to coach the man, that telling her the truth, would be akin to lying, for it would encourage her to believe a lie—that her husband did not ever love her. The man ignored Frankl’s advice, and the result was an ugly divorce with both parties deeply emotionally traumatized. Was Frankl right?

Number 50 was, “Refuse to make choice based upon the expectations of others. Instead, act in ways consistent with your purpose.” Out of the 69 reminders, this one, if followed uncritically, could cause a great deal of trouble for a person in this world. Sometimes, not telling someone, like an authority figure, what they want or expect to hear, could be quite problematic. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divine Guidance250 views0 answers0 votes“Informed consent” is obviously important to most people, and a fundamentally fair way to manage human affairs. Yet, in the realm of remote healing, it is possible to heal or attempt to heal someone without their knowledge, which would render moot any notion of their consent. Isn’t that dishonest? Can Creator tell us if Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are exempt from that concern, and if so, why?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divine Guidance313 views0 answers0 votesThe questions for this show are derived from the life and work of the late hypnotist and prolific metaphysical author Dick Sutphen. Sutphen’s last book published in 2019, one year before his death at age 83, was titled Wisdom Erases Karma. There is no doubt that if Sutphen were to sum up his storied life in just three words, they would be “Wisdom Erases Karma.” These words were engraved on this tombstone, and the final sentence of his final book reads, “From my early days, I recognized that my life was about finding the wisdom to erase my karma.” What is Creator’s perspective on the phrase “Wisdom Erases Karma?”ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma251 views0 answers0 votesSutphen’s last wife before he died, Roberta Sutphen, is a gifted psychic medium. Like many gifted psychics, Roberta can communicate with her spirit guides readily. One day Roberta was frustrated and asked her principal guide, Lily, why she seems to get instant karma while some people they knew seemed to face no consequences at all? Lily told her there is a group of people who do not abide by the Law of Karma as we know it. … that there are two types of karma: those on the Karmic Wheel of Love and those on the Karmic Wheel of Fear. The laws are completely opposite. Every thought, intent, and desire for those on the Karmic Wheel of Love comes from God and shine in the light—the opposite is true for the Wheel of Fear. People on the Karmic Wheel of Fear are a collective mass that are earthbound and controlled by the Kingdom of Darkness. Can Creator tell us if this is true? Are there “two types of karma?”ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma260 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote more about Roberta’s guide’s response, ” … (people on the Karmic Wheel of Fear) are the psychopaths, sociopaths and narcissists in your life … They are not individuals.” Dick Sutphen asked, “What does that mean?” Roberta’s guide, Lily, responded, “They don’t reincarnate like we do. They don’t go through the Pre Birth Planning. You might think you are incarnating with the same dark soul, but they are not souls. The individual you think you are going another round with will have the same energetic make-up, but they are not individuals and cannot reincarnate.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma287 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote yet more of Roberta’s guide’s response, “We were both curious about how dark souls end up on Earth. Lily said the Kingdom of Darkness believes they control birth and death of the mass, but that’s not entirely true. There is a group called the Master Architects of Reincarnation. Think of these Architects as Air Traffic Controllers. Their work is vital. There’s almost as many of them surrounding the Earth as there are humans. They only interact with spirits, such as your guides and masters. They are in control of the Earth’s balance, or karma, and help direct pre-destined events.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma280 views0 answers0 votesSutphen came up with five basic categories of Karma. 1. Balancing Karma, which is mechanical cause and effect, such as not being able to conceive a child because of child neglect in a past life. 2. Physical Karma, which is the misuse of a body in one life, so the appropriate affliction is created in a later life, such as being overweight because of starvation in a previous life. 3. False Fear Karma is from a traumatic past-life incident that generates fear that is no longer valid in the current context of your current life. 4. False Guilt Karma from taking on responsibility or blame for a past-life incident for which you are truly blameless. 5. Developed Ability or Awareness Karma, such as musical talent. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma257 views0 answers0 votesSutphen was convinced there was a Universal Law: The Law of Fearful Confrontation, “If you fear doing something, and yet have the courage to do it anyway, you will soon do a mental flip-flop and may even become addicted to doing it.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma277 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote about hypnotizing a woman with fibromyalgia which caused constant physical pain. He directed her back to the real cause of her pain. She began to describe her hard life as a Christian nun. She resided in a tiny cell and suffered physically. She said, “Christ suffered for us, so we must suffer for him as well.” She then said under hypnosis, “The physical pain began about the time I decided to devote my current hypnosis practice to Christ Consciousness work.” Sutphen explains, “Somehow her unconscious mind ‘connected’ the past-life suffering for Christ to a need to suffer doing similar work today.” Sutphen directed her to release the pain and she was fully recovered upon awakening. Can Creator comment on this?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma273 views0 answers0 votesA friend of mine in the 1980s told me she had learned that Sutphen was kidnapped by federal authorities and flown to an east coast facility for interrogation. They asked him what he thought he was doing, and he said, “Teaching people how to think.” They told him to stop if he knew what was good for him. “We think for them,” he was reputedly told. In his last book, Sutphen said this only, “My heroes were all willing to speak out and act in response to what they believed. They have certainly influenced the way I communicate. They got me into trouble with the establishment on many occasions.” Was he hinting about what my friend shared with me?
