The Dark Secret of Love.

Love, of course, is not dark.

The secret of love, however, has been revealed as myriads of dazzling pearls encompassing as many thoughts, emotions and philosophies as there are minds through all ages in contemplation of this wonderful and mysterious jewel of universal fancy and thus is the secret of love veiled in darkness as surely as is the single grain of sand at the heart of that pearl around which all of this fancy is woven as lustrous cloak.

Long halls with tall shelves bent bear millennia of contemplation bound to page, the wonder being that the world does not break under weight of that great tome, that complusive quest for the ever elusive grain of truth which is the nature of love.

Love, in most refined and pure form, is simply the assignment of value. All else is utility and context.

Love is the assignment of value, nothing more, nothing less.

Hate, that inseparable antagonist of love, suffers under the same darkness as love by revelation as myriads of dazzling pearls and long halls with tall shelves bent.

Hate, in most refined and pure fornm, is simply the assignment of no value.

The unborn child hears words, senses emotions and feels physical pain and pleasure. Most mothers are aware of this.

The new born child operates the same until the age when it can begin to command reason and language. Thereafter the child can start to form it's own associations with words and emotions and physical sensations.

Prior to command of associations all words, emotions and physical sensations are recorded indiscriminately as associations by the child from day of conception. These other determined associations can be triggered later in life and cause problems, even huge problems, manifesting from below concious level. These layers of the pearl of false persona can be immensely difficult to find and remedy.

Below is the word love with many of it's uses. Imagine how many constructive -and destructive- associations could be formed from this one word in combination with positive and negative emotions and physical sensations of pain and pleasure and impressed onto a defenseless child, and even forced onto a child not yet in full command of reason and language and associations.

This is one, single word.

We can work at salvaging ourselves and getting on track, but if we make a train wreck of the children we accomplish nothing at all.

We assign value to our children, and we assign values -for- them.

: https://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=139441
: I would like to move it over here and add some well
: presented information in the form of a short video at the
: end.
: -----------------------------------

: Hi.

: The two paragraphs below are very accurate. I would to expand
: a bit.

: "Becoming a mentally self-sovereign human being means
: undoing all that damage, and protecting yourself from
: absorbing more. It means completely renouncing everything
: you’ve been told to believe about what’s happening on these
: strange shores you washed up on small, sticky and confused,
: and setting off to find out for yourself instead. It means
: making it to the swamps of Dagobah and looking where the
: wise old muppet is pointing when he suggests “You must
: unlearn what you have learned.”

: Being a mentally sovereign human means constructing your own
: understanding of this weird reality based on your own
: investigations and your own reasoning, which means
: constructing it from the ground up. Even your most basic
: assumptions about reality itself must be rigorously
: cross-examined with complete skepticism. Nothing must be
: taken on faith."

: The individual becomes susceptible to damage at the moment of
: conception. Every physical or emotional perception as well
: as every word that the mother says or hears is recorded by
: the fetus the result being that by the time of birth the
: fetus is wrapped in impressions as the grain of sand at the
: center of a pearl is wrapped in layers of calcium
: compounds. Add to this the absolute trauma of the modern
: birthing process and the unique grain of individuality
: starts life with a tremendous handicap.

: There after the world adds more and more layers until the
: individual is operating as a distinct personalty apart from
: and usually unaware of the grain of self at the center of
: this lustrous mass with the mass thinking that it is the
: person.

: Self discovery, born again or whatever term one wishes to use
: is a difficult and disturbing process if one is serious
: about developing the literally unborn grain of true self.
: This is the parable of the man who found a pearl of great
: value and sold all he had to purchase it. He realized the
: hidden value concealed in the false persona and set about
: the arduous task of cultivating the grain of true self form
: nothing to rebirth. It's a tough row to hoe if one is
: serious about it. Being saved and the autonomous processes
: of salvation are completely different things.

: This seems to have been known long before any of the current
: religions were marketed.
: --------------------------------

: The following short presentation does not take into account
: the prenatal problems encountered by one who might wish to
: find or salvage himself, but it does present a very clear
: picture of the postnatal problem whereby an individual is
: locked into false persona early on in life.
