I Just thought I would post some of his quotes and hope nobody minds...........

Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

He that will believe only what he can fully comprehend must have a long head or a very short creed.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

In the final analysis, the questions of why bad things happen to good people transmutes itself into some very different questions, no longer asking why something happened, but asking how we will respond, what we intend to do now that it happened.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Love alone can unite living beings so as to complete and fulfill them... for it alone joins them by what is deepest in themselves. All we need is to imagine our ability to love developing until it embraces the totality of men and the earth.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Love is the affinity which links and draws together the elements of the world... Love, in fact, is the agent of universal synthesis.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Our duty, as men and women, is to proceed as if limits to our ability did not exist. We are collaborators in creation.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

The most satisfying thing in life is to have been able to give a large part of one's self to others.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

The world is round so that friendship may encircle it.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Maybe for you, but not for me....and yes very perplexing indeed. Yes, focus on the now because that is what we can control with your thoughts and actions....good or bad and in between.

if you believe we are the same source and energy (aka soul, vibration, spirit) and that we are all connected to the source of same, then it is possible to leave the physical and travel on this plane of energy. Scientifically the universe is loaded (even in a vacuum) with energy, plasma, neutrinos or otherwise. Like electricity travels a conduit, so can we. My take on the issue jmo.yay

I dont find it difficult either Stress Free - I experienced quite a bit of life through 'the doors of perception' in the sixties and seventies and so KNOW these things have a reality. The main stumbling block is in perceptions and conditioning - imo thumbs up

Just to add in my own words outside of theosophy, is that there exists an infinite amount of astral planes that are simultaneous with ours. It may be in the future, past, and a parallel lifetime.

A lot of those astral planes we go to is determined by our Karmic energy and vibration connected with our journey. So we are gravitated to an astral plane in line with our karmas that we need to work out.

It's like this, think of your TV, think of the channel you are tuned into. Meanwhile there are about 50 other channels showing programs. You can't see them, but they all exist. You can't see them because you are not tuned into those channels. You can only watch or experience the channel you are tuned into or watching.
And you are watching that particular channel for a reason.....catch my drift?

You like to listen to the Doors or did you pull that out of our archives in a Carl Jung sense?

We chased our pleasures here
Dug our treasures there
But can you still recall
The time we cried
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side


I listened to the doors and jumped out a few windows rolling on the floor laughing (low ones, because I have a fear of heights laugh) Have never read jung, though my impression is that if one wants information, one can get it from the 'source' in meditation or by request in thought. Can I claim my thoughts and their answers to be my own? I am a vessel of expression seeking its time. grin

Yes I do.. and I can even consider it as being possible once we can detach ourselves from our minds and ego.. which keep us trapped in this material world.. we seem to be only cognisent of that which we can experience with our senses and understand with our mind within a framework of 'logic' which is limited by our 'knowledge'

Thanks cheers

Yes you can. If you ask, seek and align yourself, it will come. It all there in the archives of the human experience in our universe....from the past and future which is the same if you discard time as a concept. Think as reference points.

Now you are spinning information....No, I am not contradicting. I am saying something else that you seem to deny or just having a hard time to grasp.

hmm, free love - well, I didnt get too much of that myself other than exploring an amazing concept - I did think then though, as now, that people should have their own freedon to choose rather than be bound by victorian moralities thumbs up

When I was a kid, divorce was the 'great unspeakable' - Im happy silly things like that are out of the way now..........

If we either of us gave credence to religion, you are probably correct.

Trying to dissect spirituality is a little like putting the aurora borealis under a microscope. Lights and mirrors, with a hint of smoke on the sidelines.

There is eternal beauty in ambiguity and a freedom in not really caring what the answer is because I have no need to be right.

I have faith. Not in anything or anyone. It just is, and has been central to my being for a while. When I was a teenager I looked for something to attach the faith to. Now I just shrug and let it sustain me without defining me.

Usually keeps me out of arguments (not alwaysdevil ) lets me string the moments of my life like pearls.

rolling on the floor laughing a disturbance is a sign that your thoughts are unsound or challenged?

In any event say that something that you mean. It may not be that I'm not grasping, but that I am asking for clarification. It may seem antogonistic but it is not.peace

Yes, not mine but yours as I perceive it since you called me mr chopra. It seemed kinda sarcastic. So that was my reasoning.

My thoughts are stable and sound fyi....

I mean what I say and say what I mean....from my heart. Seek for clarification and it will come. I feel that I cannot clarify what it is that you want in a justifiable manner in a forum or with lengthy posts.

That is all Bnatural, I do really enjoy your thoughts and this discussion. You are a slippery one.cheers
