Spiritual MVP of the week: PAUL HEDDERMAN



PAUL HEDDERMAN
4/5 stars
_
PRO:
Like Jed, Paul too is decidedly witty, self-deprecating, outspoken, genuine. Certainly - from a social point of view - he is more genuine than Jed since he has not hidden his identity.
I don't know Paul personally, I just listened to his speeches on YouTube and it was certainly a pleasant discovery. He manages to express himself brilliantly: his examples, metaphors, aphorisms are beautiful pearls of wisdom. His way of interpreting and simplifying the messages of ancient Zen masters, Ramana, a Course in miracles, etc. is interesting.
The suggestion not to worry about "what you really are" and to worry exclusively about "what you are not" is brilliant. In some ways it recalls Alfred Korzybski's principle of non-identity applied to spiritual research.
As in the case of Jed, Paul's main advantage is his disenchantment.
_
VERSUS:
I do not know.
Basically I see it as he does.
If we want to find or invent a defect we say that sometimes it can seem repetitive. He likes - rightly - to repeat the essential speeches, in this regard he considers himself a banal postman who always delivers the same messages to the unconscious mind. He communicates this way because he knows that many words are intercepted, misunderstood, forgotten or deliberately distorted by the conditioned mind, which accepts only what is in accordance with its system of thought and therefore impulsively rejects what threatens its certainties. In this sense, the idea of ​​proposing the same messages in many different ways is an interesting approach. Also because basically when you consider what transcends words there can be nothing to say.
Another thing that might annoy some individuals - but I personally approve of it - is not giving too much space to questions. For the same reason as before, it is not convenient to give too much space to the mental blowjobs of the ordinary mind, which is very skilled at digressing from the tracks of awareness.

  by   littleyogi   |   May 1, 2017   |   hinduism ,   non-duality ,   yoga   |   0 comments Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra  (sometimes spelt  Vigyan Bhairav Tantra ) is a 5000 year old Sanskrit text of the Shaivism. The text is a chapter from the  Rudrayamala Tantra , a Bhairava Agama.

In his answer Shiva describes 112 ways to enter into the universal and transcendental state of consciousness.

Devi ( Ma Parvati , Lord Shiva’s consort) asks: O Shiva, what is your reality? What is the wonder-filled universe? What constitutes seed? Who centres the universal wheel? What is the life beyond form pervading forms? How may we enter it fully

BODY = ROULADE OF SHIT

In honor of the old days when I disfigured with joy your ridiculous character (aka your ego), I rewrite a post full of acidity. Refrain from reading and commenting if you are a touchy person. - Your body is not the temple of the soul or of the spirit. Your body has nothing sacred, special, spiritual. Your body is just a roulade stuffed with shit flowing into the intestine. This is the main function of your dear body: contain shit and carry shit! Purifying your body does not mean purifying a sacred temple but purifying a toilet … Would you dedicate your life to embellishing a toilet? Do you consider the tablet of your water sacred? Do you consider the toilet paper spiritual? Do you consider the ritual of cleaning your ass? Here, the same thing is true for your body. Any "sacred" ritual or spiritual cleansing ritual you believe to accomplish with your body is as sacred as the ritual of wiping your ass full of shit. (by Zero)
