Stopping the World

Through meditation and other techniques the Totlec warrior/sorcerer learns to stop the internal chatter (or dialogue) that is made up of all the belief sytems and the “world as we know it” programming (the consentual reality), so that she can “listen to the silence.”

Stopping the world can be a little scary. It's like when the assemblage brakes free. Where so used to clinging on to thoughts and concepts, that when the thoughts and concepts run out or stop, we don't know what to do. I've been there so many times and I'm just now starting to get used to letting go and being in that kind of open space. lol

Indeed. Listening to the silence can be deafening; thunderous.

It does clear the fog though.

Regarding the Consentual Reality …

I was sharing with a new friend some of the terms used in Toltec Wisdom and he was acquainting me with terms from his Path of Atomics and he came up with this statement:

“The extent to which we do not take personal accountability is the extent to which the Consentual Reality will make decisions for us.” (or something very like that).

I totally resonate with this. Comments and discussions encouraged ……

I was involved with Landmark Education in the '80s (before it was called Landmark) – they used to talk about “the drift” – the momentum and force of established patterns of thinking and behaving – we have to consciously harness our intentions and actions if we want to live our lives outside of, or apart from, the drift
