Emotions, Self-Control, and Correcting Habits

by Robert Wilkinson

From the Magic of Space, some thoughts about fear, ignorance, and how much power we have to overcome these fairly easily. From Chapter VII, The Self - Its Relation to Space and Matter:

First, you should realize that all uncontrolled emotions are the result of ignorance or undevelopment, and this knowledge will rob them of their power over you. You will know that you are at the emotional point in your evolution, which is an indication of ignorance of your own power of self-control. Then you will begin to see the need of development, and will set about correcting the fault. A child fears the dark because he does not know its nature of its cause. If he is carried into a dark room and the light is turned on, and he sees nothing there to injure him, his fear is immediately dissipated. His fear was banished when his ignorance was destroyed.

Problems of Illusion

From The Magic of Space, Chapter 10, "Problems of Illusion," we find words of wisdom regarding superstition, hidden forces, and cultivating intuition. I'll post more astrology tomorrow.

Universal Thought, Knowledge, and Dreams

by Robert Wilkinson

From The Magic of Space:

Remember this: whatever you keep your attention upon will accumlate knowledge for your mind. All facts of the intuition come from the Universal thought. All human experience and activities of the earth are connected with our dream life, but they will not furnish us with the facts which are part of our intuition, and are, therefore, not part of the Universal thought.

Love, Dad - Bereavement, Grief, and Healing After A Significant Death

by Robert Wilkinson

After long reflection and meditation, I decided it was time to write something on grief and bereavement, since events that throw us into deep grief can safely be called an "intersection of fate and free will." Losing a loved one is one of the hardest, and occasionally THE hardest, thing that happens to us humans. The price of love is grief, since if we choose to love another in this impermanent world, one of us must go first, and the other is left to grieve.

There Are Many Roads To Truth

by Robert Wilkinson

I posted this piece last year on this day, which my friends know is a profoundly sacred time for me. Though every day is a good day to find truth, higher awareness, or God, January 9, 1988 changed me forever. If you read my book, "Love Dad," you'll understand why. It may offer you some comfort, help you to help another, or perhaps become stronger in your expressions of compassion and understanding. On this day I read from a variety of spiritual works to remember what is truly important. I may post something else later, depending on how my meditations go. For now, though, I'll offer you this little gem from "Agni Yoga," an amazing work written almost 80 years ago by Helena Roerich, wife of the legendary Nicholas Roerich who was the first artist ever nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, among other notable achievements. In our transitional era, it offers hope for the future, and clues to the eternal.

How the Divine Law Manifests – Perception, Memory, and Reincarnation

by Robert Wilkinson

For your consideration, from The Magic of Space, Chapter Two, “Phenomena of Space,” a comment on how energy continually re-embodies itself in different forms across space and time, and why we usually don’t remember our past lives.

Re-embodiment is a fact in nature, with the indestructibility of matter and force re-embodying themselves for the purpose of evolution. The law of re-embodiment manifests on all planes, and upon all worlds or planets. The fact that we do not see the operation of a law is no proof that the law has ceased to act.
