Running the Psycho GPM

There are 18 pairs of opposite postulates. One contemplates on these pairs as in the earlier GPMs. Looking at the pair of opposites exteriorizes one from any identification with thoughts.

The mind assimilates only when the data is continuous, consistent and harmonious. If the data is contradictory, as in this GPM, then the applicable item must be looked at more closely until you find the reason underlying it, and resolve that contradiction.

CHAPTER 1: What Is Death

Reference: DEATH: An Inside Story

Death is the most fundamental question. Yet, people can ignore it, avoid it and just live on in their ignorance simply because all kinds of idiotic stories have been spread in the world in the name of religion.” ~ Sadhguru

1.1 Death: The Most Fundamental Question

Death is inevitable, yet it is unreal to most people… People have lost perspective as to who they are in this Universe… If you are aware, you will see both life and death are happening every moment… With every inhalation there is life, with every exhalation there is death… The religions of the world have spread all kinds of idiotic stories about life and death.

1.2 Mortal Nature

Dependence on God is not going to make you successful.You will not become spiritual—you could actually become very brazen and stupid… It is only when you become conscious that you will also die, you will turn spiritual… Once you come to terms with death, and you are conscious that you will die, you will want to make every moment of your life as beautiful as possible… In a real spiritual practice there is always a tinge of death… It is important to acquire the sense that death is inevitable and it will happen to you… Watch the bodies burn in the cremation ground… When your very body perceives the fragility of its existence, there is a very profound relief and acceptance.

1.3 Exploring Death

Sadhguru on his experience of Self (Universal consciousness): “This experience made me realize that people don’t die. They live on. I was flooded with lifetimes of memories and experiences that made me realize that the past few lifetimes for me were about the same work, in the same place and to some extent with the same people! It is this understanding of life (and death) that has shaped my life since then. In a way, death is a fiction created by ignorant people. Death is the creation of the unaware, because if you are aware, it is life, life and life alone—moving from one dimension of Existence to another.”

1.4 Is Death a Calamity

People living their entire lives without experiencing life is a tragedy. If you die, there is really no tragedy… Death is compassion because it relieves you… However, if you also know the relaxation of death when you are alive, then life becomes an utterly effortless process… The greatest calamity of the human mind is that it is against death… One who does not embrace death will not know life at all… Moments of danger are moments when you experience both life and death together at the same time.

1.5 Stop Inviting Death

One major contribution to the multiple, complex ailments that you see on the planet these days is that people are trying to dodge life and, in the process, are inviting death… Have you come here to avoid life or to experience life?… People think nothing new should happen to them, but they want an exciting life. How is this possible?… If you create this kind of nothing-should-happen-to-me situation within yourself, you will become stagnant. Stagnation is death.

DEATH: An Inside Story (Sadhguru 2020)

This is synopsis of Sadhguru’s book Death An Inside Story  with Subject Clearing.

Death Blow: An Introduction

Today, death is looked as more as a medical condition than as a natural phenomenon. The success of medical science has only breathed a fresh lease of life to the historic quest for immortality. 

In spiritual terms, even that which probably did not happen in life could happen in death. The highest form of death is the dissolution of the Self. One of the objectives is to help one achieve a ‘good’ death.

The most significant aspect of the book, however, is how the tools offered by Sadhguru and his presence in our midst can help us make our own death more graceful and spiritually significant.

PART I: Life and Death in One Breath

Death
Life and death live in me at once
Never held one above the other
When one stands far, life I offer
In closeness, only death I deal
In death of the limited
Will the deathless be
How to tell the fools
Of my taintless evil

CHAPTER 1: What Is Death

Death is the most fundamental question. Yet, people can ignore it, avoid it and just live on in their ignorance simply because all kinds of idiotic stories have been spread in the world in the name of religion.” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 2: The Process of Death

“What you are calling as life, right now, is like soap bubbles being blown. The entire Yogic process or the entire spiritual process is to wear this bubble thin, so that one day when it bursts, there is absolutely nothing left and it moves from the bondage of existence to the freedom of non-existence, or Nirvana.” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 3: The Quality of Death

“No two people in the world live their lives the same way. Similarly, no two people die the same way. People may die in the same situation, of the same cause, but still they don’t die the same way.” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 4: Can Death Be Hacked

“When the body is still strong, what is meant to be can always be transcended.”  – Sadhguru

CHAPTER 5: Mahasamadhi

“Mahasamadhi is the end of the game. The cycle is over. There is no question of rebirth; it is complete dissolution. You can say this person is truly no more.” ~ Sadhguru

.

PART II The Gracefulness of Death

Become Me
I was borne in my Mother’s womb
but she did not create me
I eat the salt of this Earth
but I do not belong to her
It is through this body that I walk
but I am not it
It is my mind through which I work
but it could not contain me
In the limitations of time and space I live
but it has not denied me unboundedness
I was born like you, I eat like you,
sleep like you and I will die like you
but the limited has not limited me
Life’s bondages have not bound me
As the dance of life progresses
this space, this unboundedness has become
unbearably sweet
Become love and reach out
Become me

CHAPTER 6: Preparing for a Good Death

“Most people in the world believe that if they die in their sleep, it is wonderful. What a horrible way to go!” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 7: Assistance for the Dying

“A bodiless being is a completely defenseless life. That is why that aspect of life must be conducted with utmost responsibility. When someone gives this being a little bit of help at the last moment, it will go a long way. Most of their sadhana for the next time will be taken care of at that moment itself.” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 8: Assistance for the Disembodied

“As we have responsibilities for the living, we have responsibilities for the dead. ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 9: Of Grief and Mourning

“I want you to understand that your grief is not because someone has died. One life going away does not mean anything to you. Thousands of people in the world die in a day. But it does not leave a vacuum in you. You are still partying. The problem is, this particular life going away leaves a hole in your life.” ~ Sadhguru

.

PART III: Life after Death

The Dark One
When I first heard the sounds of
Darkness and silence meeting within me
The little mind argues for light
The virtue, the power, the beauty
Light a brief happening could hold me not
All encompassing darkness drew me in
Darkness the infinite eternity
Dwarfs the happened, the happening and yet to happen
Choosing the eternal
Darkness I became
The dark one that I am
The Divine and the devil are but a small part
The divine I dispense with ease
If you meet the devil you better cease

CHAPTER 10: The Life of a Ghost

“In a way, everyone is a ghost. Whether you are a ghost with the body or without a body is the only question.” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 11: The Riddle of Reincarnation

“Right now, most people are not even able to handle what is happening in this life, so why do they want to dig into their previous lives? They don’t know how to handle the thoughts, emotions and relationships of this life. How will they handle the thoughts, emotions and relationships of many lives?” ~ Sadhguru

CHAPTER 12: Final Round

“We can make this life the last one for you but we cannot make this the most wonderful one. That only you have to do. For that, you must do sadhana. You must promise me that.” ~ Sadhguru

The Definition of Reality

Reality does not depend on agreement as Scientology states. Reality depends on the Principle of Oneness, which applies to postulates and to the reasoning that proceeds from those postulates. Reality gets distorted by anomalies.

.

POSTULATE
A postulate is a self-created truth that gives form to the unknowable, and attempts to make it knowable. Based on postulates further reasoning follows. To be valid postulates and reasoning must adhere to the principle of oneness.

PRINCIPLE OF ONENESS
Oneness does not imply sameness. Oneness means that all that is known is continuous, consistent and harmonious. This principle of oneness underlies the very concept of the universe. It also underlies the Scientific method. This principle gives us the ideal scene for logic, because its violation gives us anomalies.

ANOMALY
An anomaly is any violation of the principle of oneness, such as, discontinuity (missing data), inconsistency (contradictory data), or disharmony (arbitrary data).

.

  1. KHTK Factor # 1: Before the beginning was the Unknowable and the entire purpose of the Unknowable was to know itself.
  2. KHTK Factor # 1-1: In the beginning and forever is the ability to postulate and become aware.
  3. KHTK Factor # 1-2: The postulates attempt to convert the Unknowable into Knowable.
  4. KHTK Factor #  1-3: And thus there is substance.
  5. KHTK Factor # 1-4: And thus there is oneness.

Scientology and its Derivatives

Reference: Course on Subject Clearing

The whole problem with these Scientology derivative OT procedures seems to be the same as with the Scientology OT procedures. This problem arises with their dependence on the E-meter. All kind of strange symbology at these OT levels exists only because of the apparent “support” of the E-meter reads.

The basic misconception is that E-meter reads support whatever whacky theory one comes up with. This misconception started with Hubbard himself.

E-meter reads do not corroborate any theories. They do not replace the scientific method.

The Scientific Method rests on the Principle of Oneness. That is where the validity of any theory rests ultimately. It rests with the resolution of anomalies. 

PRINCIPLE OF ONENESS
Oneness does not imply sameness. Oneness means that all that is known is continuous, consistent and harmonious. This principle of oneness underlies the very concept of the universe. It also underlies the Scientific method. This principle gives us the ideal scene for logic, because its violation gives us anomalies.
 

Subject Clearing follows the Scientific Method as it focuses on the resolution of anomalies.

Hubbard rejected the Principle of Oneness (see Identity vs Individuality). His procedures do not deal with anomalies. His concept of outpoints falls far short of the concept of anomalies. The point is,

Any OT Theory based on E-meter reads is not scientific because it does not follow the scientific method.
