What a week! I hope you are well! Divine love and light brings up anything unlike ourselves in order to be healed, forgiven and released, individually and collectively we are going through a lot! I need to visit the sea 🌊 it’s calling me! A personal retreat from the big smoke, out of season it will be quieter. I have not seen enough of this country yet! You take care ❤❤❤

@@mariameere5807 Nice to hear from you again. Actually I have 111 views, not likes, but that's ok. This book is more dense and not as easy to follow as some of the others. But it was short enough for me to make a HQ video. I only get 20 hours a month of the HQ voices, and it costs more. I already have over 500 videos and I will probably be doing less new ones and more redoing old ones with the better voices as time goes on. BTW I am out of danger of cancellation for the time being. I only have one strike which expires in about 10 weeks or so.

Another thing -- it's a good idea to download any videos you want to keep, not with youtube function but with another downloader like RealPlayer so you have them on your PC. Also you can get computer equipment very cheap on facebook marketplace -- you could easily buy a laptop or any other thing for a few bucks.

@@ProfessorMysticWow! Thank you so much ❤❤❤

It makes you wonder who is really benefitting from all of these life experiences, knowledge, and as you suggest, suffering. Is it for our benefit, or someone / something else? The people in these stories don't really appear to have free will, including the author.

@@garypalmer1122 there is a school of thought that believes god, the universe, whatever it is you like to call it, feeds off the chaos and suffering. A good analogy would be someone who enjoys eating a burger, an animal had to suffer and die for that person to enjoy the meal. Now... Where does this fit into the bigger picture? I don't know. But I believe most of the egregious forms of suffering that people endure in this world is pointless and without meaning. And that there is nothing spiritual or spiritually purging about it, but is rather clinical in nature, like being lab rat.

I can only get 20 hours a month of the high quality voices.

@@ProfessorMystic okay no worries thanks Prof

I agree! This channel gets better and better🙏🌅 blessings!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Goldsmith was one of the best teachers to come out of the New Thought movement. He came from the Christian Science tradition, as did many others whose books I have posted. But his writings can stand on their own. Tommy Chong, the celebrity pothead, said that he read all of Goldstein's works.

Obviously you don’t have to answer and are probably very busy but take that as a compliment because I would never ask a question on a channel bc it puts the channel owner in an awkward position in which they feel like they have to answer! Forgive me, I can be a very hyper person… I am sure you have figured this out but as a result of this channel I have through “self analysis” just figured out how much I can be especially for a Brit where people are generally not like this but we are changing!! More authentic! ❤

@@mariameere5807 No worries at all. HPB was a very complex and controversial character. She started the whole Theosophy tradition, which was the first serious attempt to bring Eastern and Western religion together. There was also a strong occultic element. She wrote " The Secret Doctrine" and "Isis Unveiled" which are massive foundational texts in this field. She claimed to be in touch with Tibetan "masters" or "Ascended Masters" who inspired the material. Eventually there was a whole lot of weirdness and confusion in the the movement, and it splintered into many offshoots, including Alice Bailey and her supposedly channeled writings, as well as Rudolf Steiner and his Anthroposophy movement. The whole "Saint Germain" thing and the I AM material also descended from this stream of thought. Some say that HPB was the beginning of the new age movement, which is partially true. As you can see, it is all very complicated. Here is what ChatGPT says about it: Helena Petrovna Blavatsky was a prominent figure in the late 19th century, best known for co-founding the Theosophical Society and for her writings on spirituality, esotericism, and Eastern philosophies. Her legacy is complex, with both positive and negative aspects. Good Aspects Spiritual Synthesis: Blavatsky sought to synthesize Eastern and Western spiritual traditions, bringing concepts like karma, reincarnation, and spiritual evolution to a Western audience. This helped to broaden the understanding of Eastern philosophies. Influence on Esotericism: She played a crucial role in the revival of interest in the occult and mystical traditions, influencing later movements, including New Age spirituality and various esoteric schools. Social Reform: Blavatsky was involved in social issues, advocating for the rights of women and promoting universal brotherhood, which resonated with the social reform movements of her time. Literary Contributions: Her works, such as "Isis Unveiled" and "The Secret Doctrine," are considered foundational texts in theosophy and continue to be studied for their philosophical insights. Bad Aspects Controversial Claims: Blavatsky made numerous claims about her spiritual experiences and the existence of advanced beings (Masters) guiding her work. Skeptics have often viewed these claims as unverifiable or exaggerated. Accusations of Fraud: Throughout her life, Blavatsky faced accusations of fraud, particularly regarding her alleged paranormal abilities. Investigations, including one by the Society for Psychical Research, raised doubts about her legitimacy. Racial Theories: Some of her writings included racial theories that have been criticized as elitist and discriminatory. This aspect has marred her legacy, especially in contemporary discussions about race and spirituality. Polarizing Figure: Blavatsky's assertive personality and controversial ideas often alienated potential allies and drew sharp criticism from established religious and scientific communities. Conclusion Blavatsky remains a polarizing figure in the history of spirituality and esotericism. While her contributions to spiritual thought and the popularization of Eastern philosophies are significant, her controversial claims and problematic views on race complicate her legacy. Understanding her impact requires a nuanced consideration of both her achievements and her shortcomings. The Theosophy tradition, founded by Helena Blavatsky in the late 19th century, has inspired numerous offshoots and related movements. Here are some notable ones: 1. Lucifer Publishing Company Originally established by Blavatsky, it later became known as the Lucis Trust. It publishes works related to theosophy and focuses on spiritual and esoteric teachings, continuing to influence New Age thought. 2. The United Lodge of Theosophists (ULT) Founded in 1909 by Blavatsky’s followers, including Annie Besant and Charles Leadbeater. The ULT aimed to promote the study and dissemination of Theosophical ideas without a formal organization, emphasizing individual exploration of spirituality. 3. The Anthroposophical Society Founded by Rudolf Steiner, a former member of the Theosophical Society, this movement integrates Theosophy with spiritual science and emphasizes education, agriculture (biodynamic farming), and the arts. 4. The Order of the Star in the East Established by Besant in 1911 to prepare for the arrival of the "World Teacher" (often associated with Maitreya). It focused on the promotion of Theosophy and world unity. 5. The Theosophical Society (Pasadena) After a split in the original Theosophical Society in the early 20th century, this faction, headquartered in Pasadena, California, continues to promote Theosophical teachings and engages in various educational and spiritual activities. 6. The Theosophical Society (Adyar) Based in Adyar, India, this faction focuses on the original teachings of Blavatsky and has a global network. It emphasizes social engagement and interfaith dialogue. 7. The Golden Dawn While not directly a Theosophical organization, the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn was influenced by Theosophical ideas, especially regarding ritual magic and mysticism, incorporating elements of Kabbalah and other esoteric traditions. 8. New Age Movement Many aspects of Theosophy, such as reincarnation, spiritual evolution, and holistic approaches to healing, have permeated New Age beliefs, contributing to its widespread popularity in the 20th century. 9. Anthroposophical Medicine Developed by Rudolf Steiner, this holistic approach to medicine draws from Theosophical principles and emphasizes the spiritual aspects of healing. 10. Various Esoteric Schools Numerous smaller groups and schools have emerged, often blending Theosophical teachings with other spiritual traditions, creating unique interpretations of esoteric knowledge. Conclusion Theosophy has had a lasting impact on various spiritual and esoteric movements. Its emphasis on universal brotherhood, spiritual evolution, and the synthesis of different traditions continues to resonate in contemporary spirituality, leading to a diverse range of interpretations and practices.

@@ProfessorMystic WOW 🤩! I am genuinely touched by the effort you went to! Thank you so much! Today was my birthday, the 10- 10! I think I look old in that photo my mom chose… (less sluty she said! Lol) I have not had a drop of alcohol and it is my birthday! I didn’t miss it one bit, I don’t want anything to mess with my heightened senses! And I’m definitely feeling the benefits of the teachings on here which are very often repeated by Eckhart Tolley I have noticed! Transmutation of negative emotions has helped me the most! I don’t want to sound like I am being coming from ego, but I am aware of what it comes back with a superior “spiritual” Identity and this is not that! So I am secure enough to say this but I feel like I have undergone a shift in consciousness that was very intense initially! I couldn’t even sleep! But now with my insatiable hunger for the right teachings for where I am now, and I am aware that they too may change, but I have never felt better! Everything feels new kind of like the honeymoon period of awakening when I was 29! And I want to thank you so much! Words cannot express my appreciation for you and your work and you have definitely gained some great karma! So maybe now would be a good time to do the lottery?! lol 😂 Blessings in abundance! I see all your hearts desires manifesting for you in gratitude and faith, or knowing! 🙏🪷💛

@@mariameere5807 Thank you -- that was interesting. I also learn a lot from YOU as a matter of fact. I'm happy to hear about your spiritual adventures.

It's a good idea to download your favorites to your hard drive, in case something happens, god forbid, with my channel. I have gotten 2 copyright strikes, and I get another one in the next 2 weeks or so, they could cancel me. Fortunately it very rarely happens - I have only gotten 3 or 4 strikes in last year or so, and they go away after 90 days. Now I have 2 at the same time. which has never happened before. So keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best.

@@ProfessorMystic Well Thank you for telling me that! U are a Godsend! 🌟

Freud started the ball rolling -- he was the first to talk about the subconscious mind. Jung and many others later expanded and improved upon this theories.

@@ProfessorMystic Ok! I don’t know why but I thought they were around at the same time, but that is a huge achievement! Thanks for clarifying. 😇

@@mariameere5807 Jung was Freud's star pupil, the heir apparent to his legacy, but they had a big break up. You ought to check out Jung's autobiography -- Memories Dreams reflections.

@@ProfessorMystic I didn’t know he had one! I have always felt drawn to him. You are a fountain of the wisdom that I feel I am meant to receive. I’m fascinated by it! Thank you for that! Amazing men weren’t they! Someone once suggested Einstein’s autobiography but I don’t know if I could make sense of that, but I loved Science when Greg Braden explains it!
