On "Gravitational Fields of Thoughts"——A Perspective From "Gravitational Waves"



One of the global sensations in 2017 was that a team of scientists in the U.S. had detected gravitational waves by experiments, confirming Einstein's theory.  
The gravitational waves were reported only from the perspective of astronomical research; therefore, many people find them distant and unhelpful in real life.  In fact, through the proof of gravitational waves, humans will gradually uncover the deeper workings of the world and accordingly understand how to create their own destiny, which is super important, isn't it?

Why is it so?  The reason is that thoughts form gravitational fields as well (that is, thoughts cause the curvature of space-time).  Now scientists are finally able to detect the presence of gravitational waves.  Then, in the future it is possible to detect the gravitational waves that are created between exchanges of thoughts.  Thus, they will observe what spiritual circles have been buzzing——how thoughts work behind the material world.

With the messages given by the Spirit, now let's keep moving ahead of science and elaborate on the "gravitational fields of thoughts”.  Thoughts also form gravitational fields, the so-called "Power of Mind”.  Hence, when a crowd gathers, the gravitational field will be strengthened.  One of the features of gravitational fields——the "ability to accelerate"——will shorten the time for "Cause & Effect" (the time required for causes to give fruits).  You need to keep only one principle in mind——"the more close-together it is, the faster the Cause & Effect will be"——this is exactly the reasoning behind what scientists have observed——"the greater the masses, the larger the gravitational fields".  And they will discover later that these are inherently the same thing.  Therefore, this is the reason why social evolutions accelerate in the internet era, when communication and contacts are increased to defy many people's expectations of the scales as well as the time required for events.  For example, the effects of things that would have taken 10-20 years to happen will now take place in only 3-5 years.  The advent of the internet has resulted in an unprecedented growth in the density of thought exchanges, so the “acceleration of Cause & Effect” features in anything posted on the internet.


The "Power of Thoughts" is really great, which, however, is often misunderstood to exaggerate the “Power of One's Own Thoughts” over everything——a situation common to those who are very romantic by nature in spiritual circles. 

For instance, is it useful to bless a person or to pray for an event by putting our heads together?  As far as the effects are concerned, the blessings given by, no matter how many people, in fact, are no match for those given by the person himself.  The reason is that the gravitational field he creates has the most direct and tremendous impact on himself.  If a person cannot bless himself, the influence of Qi-collection of, no matter how many people, will be very small.  Consequently, for Qi-collecting and blessing to be an effective practice, it is a must to tell the person concerned and make him fully comprehend the kindness of others.  With others' kindness in mind, he is more likely to bless himself willingly and allow himself to move toward the direction of Light (Note that it is only "more likely").

Therefore, when we talk about the Power of Thoughts, and want to use the Power of Thoughts to change external people, matters and objects, we must consider one factor——the presence of others' thoughts.

How about praying against earthquakes or typhoons?   Never think that only humans have consciousness; the Earth has consciousness, too.  Compared with humans, the Earth is a greater soul, who also has her mode of operation along with her needs and reasoning.  What you think to be unreasonable or distasteful may not be taken by the Earth consciousness that way.  Accordingly, the power of human minds over the earthquakes or typhoons is little.  As a result, it is not only ineffective but also insensible to anticipate natural operations with human subjective views and temporary preferences.

The name of the game is what we should be concerned about——Your praying or blessing is not to change the outside world; the real biggest impact will be on yourself.  That is to say, your power of thoughts does affect people, and the affected one is you yourself.  What's next requires your careful thoughts and observation—— Thoughts" are often opposite to thinking.  For example, someone sees others having disasters, thinking in his head, "Ah!  May they do well and go through difficulties.  This appears to be out of love, but his real "thought" is exactly the opposite.  His thought is out of fear, focusing on the horror of disasters.  Its true message is, "I'm so scared that this may happen to me.  I do not want this to happen to me.  Since it does not happen to him in reality, he is in fact gratified to have been favored by luck.  Such gratification of the fact that "fortunately I have been spared from this misfortunate" further causes guilty feelings, which his mind will quickly replace with the expression of "blessing" or "compassion" to avoid guilt.


In consequence, his blessing and concerns are only on the surface, but deep down in his heart he cares about no one but himself.  Or, he is concerned about his own sorrow by showing interest in others' sorrows.  And his "thought" to concern about himself is nothing but a good scare from beginning to end.  All the reactions are various forms of the fact that "I'm so afraid this will occur to me.  He may consider himself to be piously giving blessings, light and love, though.  However, the true result is that the more he wants to avoid such impermanence, the more horrors will be drawn closer to him.  That is, the chance of his encountering misfortune is getting higher.

The point is, "Thoughts" are not what you “Think" in your head, but what your mind “Attaches?  The power lies in the latter, not the former.  The Law of Attraction operates on the basis of the latter.  The so-called "positive thinking" is often used based on the fear that certain situations may occur.  The more deliberately it is applied, the more easily the opposite will happen.  Instead, a person who can truly accept impermanence and face all kinds of possibilities will encounter less "impermanence" in his life, and he will have no lesson on "impermanence".

With the said reasoning going further, you will not only be enlightened on what the so-called "Life Lessons" are all about, but also understand why only reverse operation can free you from the plight of your life.  Further extension, however, will take up too much space here.  I would keep it for elaboration in class.  Please come to class to explore if you feel bound to.


Thus, people continue missing whatever they have been wanting.  For example, someone thinks himself to be poor and always tries to make money; what he wants is “Abundance”.  And yet, even with great wealth, you will see his internal poverty.  The reason is that he has been trying harder to make more money by ruthless tactics, even at the expense of health and conscience.  It proves that no matter how much money he wants, he has no Abundance".


If we honestly look at the real motives behind what we do 24 hours a day, we may find that we are doing nothing but wanting.  We "Do" something because we "Want" it.  "Want" is based on "I Have Nothing", and "Do" is accordingly based on "I Have Nothing.  The "Have drawn to me based on "I Have Nothing" will always make me feel that "I Still Have Nothing.  As it is, humans have been wanting for thousands of years, and are still suffering from greed.

Then, what is the right path if one really wants to have Abundance"?

It must begin with gratitude.  If you can really develop your gratitude consciousness and have heartfelt gratitude for life, you will have Abundance.  Next, you examine yourself through gratitude and adjust the way you deal with people, things and business. (That is, corresponding action must follow gratitude.)  You will gradually build up a "life structure simmering with Abundance".

As it grows and lasts, its gravitational field will become even stronger.  It will become an Abundance Accelerator", which will quickly attract everyone, everything and the wisdom necessary for your riches and honors.  And you will live your life with more and more Abundance.  This is the principle how living conditions can turn from bad to good.

Lastly, let us give another example to make you all know better.


Many big shots on the internet know well that commenting on current events is the way to get eyeballs.  But obviously, how can anyone have a thorough study on any issue?  If they encounter difficulties in unfamiliar realms, they will face a choice——For the parts they are not clear, should they just ignore them and patch up theories and data for their expected conclusions?  Or should they spend time for a clearer picture and comment later, with the best timing passing by after they have figured it all out?


Well, let's say that someone always posts fast enough to get eyeballs.  His internal "thoughts" are in fact all based on the anxiety "to develop himself", which means "I'm not good enough; I need to hurry up to seize the opportunity.  Then the scenery of life rolling out of such thoughts is not a reduction in anxiety, but a worsening condition, even if he seems to have much attention, fame and wealth.  The success structure he has attracted turns out to be the one that makes him suffer. (So is this a success?)



If he is aware of the status of choices and thinks with the formula of "Gratitude, Self-Examination, Devotion", then he will feel, "No way. Since my purpose is hoping for a more awakening and better society, I will provide to others fair views and write solid things.  Being slow and steady is the right thing to do.  Thus, he would consult more opinions of the event, do more research, write later on, and write stuff that is more mature and helpful for elevation in general.  Then he will sleep soundly after posting his work, feeling certain and joyful.  His mood will not be affected too much by the number of hits.  And his extra time for the work will turn into his ability and vision for inferences in the future.  By doing so, he will become successful in a steady manner (along with solid growth and sincerity).  He would not fall sick due to too much work.  The more ill one becomes, the more twisted tactics one will need to hide emptiness and maintain illusion.

But the choice is made with your thoughts so private that if you tell yourself or others with what you think in your head——that is, you are doing the right thing and you do it out of good thoughts, or sense of purpose…… it is not difficult to draw a veil over. But the Cause & Effect of the "Mind"(in the gravitational field of thoughts) is physical and realistic, not ethereal.  Where there is a thought, there is a gravitational field.  Results come from nowhere but the rise of your thoughts.  Nothing “instantly reveals human minds" like "Cause & Effect"!

This Is What Perfectionism Turns Out To Be! Decoding the Risk Factors for Depression

Photo: Palace of Versailles, Paris, France

Some people have traits of dramatic personality.   When fear comes, they tend to amplify it and then fall into great pressure.  What’s more, they are prone to magnify the healing effects of spiritual courses, but the seemingly curative effects are also short-lived.  As time goes by and the sense of healing fades out, they will feel empty again, with that fear arising bit by bit......If you have such experiences, chances are you may have a perfectionist personality.


Let me first explain why that sense of healing fades out.  (Because) that “sense of healing" originates not from your authentic clarity, but from the design situations which temporarily switch you to another channel to feel the beauty of another belief.


"Clarity" refers to your "objectivity" and "diversity" in perspectives without the “ignorant craving” (namely, the “Ignorance" in Three Poisons--- “Greed, Hatred, Ignorance") derived from self-containment.  For example, some may imagine the kind of income and environment a job can offer; however, only after years of practices will they realize the unknown hardships of all trades and professions, which are totally different from what they used to envy.


Some people show zeal for something out of their excessive imagination and romance (rather than simply loving it), which is packaged to become the driving force for their endeavors; however, such cause prevents them from seeing the reality.  The so-called "perfectionist personality" is a person who lives in the ideal of his imagination, which is out of tune with his surroundings. There is a huge deviation between his imagination and surroundings.


In fact, people of perfectionist personality are often destined to be less broad-minded, and vice versa.  A broad-minded extrovert will easily and cheerfully communicate with others, and his personality trait is "not taking things so seriously”.  Although this trait makes his thoughts not so deep, on the other hand, he is more willing to listen to what others have to say, and more open to accept what they say.  After he has integrated all kinds of messages, he will soon be able to lower himself, change viewpoints, and make adjustment beyond imagination. Besides, in this process, he is more able to establish interoperability resources with people from everywhere, so his "Path of Promotion" will be easier.  Many outgoing, sunny-natured people are more successful in sales; this is not just their "good looks" that matter. The reason is that they do not take things so seriously that they are more able to learn from far and wide.

In contrast, introverts or persons with "suppressed passions" have narrower contacts, and they build a wall to shield themselves from different voices.  For example, they tend to think, "This person and I are in different worlds. I do not feel like getting along with him." "I don't want to bother myself to have a word with that kind of person."  As a result of their self-handicapping, they simply cannot hear different voices. These unheard voices, nevertheless, are often exactly what they need. Without these different voices, they will always be repetitively hitting the wall, unable to achieve what they hanker in hearts.


People all have the energy to “create or develop something”.  It is easier for broad-minded people to use this energy for creation as they have more ways to stand out.  However, if introverts or people with suppressed passions cannot bring out talents, this energy will have no outlet but to become an internal drive for being picky and fault-finding.


For those who suppress passions by nature, and if they further evolve into fault-finders, they will have high risk for depression!  Such is the process how a large proportion of victims come to suffer from depression.


What is the best thing to do, then?  Personality, of course, is not something that can be changed overnight.  An introvert is not likely to morph into a broad-minded person in a second.  But first of all, think carefully: can the ideal picture in your mind exist solidly in the real world?  Or is it just a "cave" for your escape? A broad-minded person often interacts and exchanges with people and things around him.  The “chords" of his life resonate with everything in his surrounding; in fact, this is closer to "oneness" (and of course, just a small "oneness").  But a gloomy person has no way to communicate with others, but sees their shortcomings, which, compared with the perfection he imagines, will provoke lots of conflicts and resistance.  Therefore, he simply wants to take no trouble and unify with his own sweet imagination!


Such situation is as if a person has been imagining living on the moon, but in fact his feet tread practically on the earth and he moves with the rotation of the earth.  Since so many things on the earth make him annoyed, he flees to the "oneness" he has imagined. Some religious beliefs then virtualize this imaginary "oneness" for his escape.  (Here we are not referring to any particular sect but presenting the basic principle.  Please do not take it personally.)

A broad-minded person has been exchanging with and learning from the real world, and he never stops adjusting himself.   Indeed, he will lead a better and more balanced life and enjoy greater wisdom and wealth.  His energy will continue to expand upwards.  But he who has always wanted to become one with his own imagination (ideal) will become more and more isolated. Those who would talk with him will later find him too difficult to get along with and gradually alienate him. Many people with depression or bipolar disorder have such experiences.

They all have their imaginary (rightful) perfection or ideal, but there is one thing missing, and that is called "consideration" or "compassion".


What is "consideration" or "compassion"?  It is that you will not close the link in between when you consider someone inferior.  In fact, anyone can be your "teacher". That is, anyone can enlighten you. But before you can see it, you tend to have made an abrupt conclusion.

An office clerk will understand the reason why he can sit comfortably in the beautiful office is that many people work in dirt and it takes bits and pieces to turn dirt into beauty——if he can exchange with workers.  When he becomes conscious of this, he will have a sense of oneness with the workers, and he will realize that all work is important. Furthermore, he can grasp in gratitude the great philosophy of life ——that all beauty comes from dirt, both of which are inherently in oneness.

Some people in spiritual circles, unless they fall badly, will keep hiding in their utopias.  When they link together and help each other in the same utopia, they seem to offer themselves more reassuring sustenance.  They exchange with the same vocabulary on the internet; they understand and cherish one another. But whenever someone comes up with something against this utopia, they will either criticize it at once or close their eyes and ears and just ignore it.

However, a person hiding in an utopia will surely have his lessons. Why?  The reason is that there exists not only the day, but also the night on the earth.

When the night comes, he will be suffering.  Others relax in the dark night. They relaxt safe and sound, but he simply cannot.  During the day he has been dealing with a lot of things.  Exhausted, he cannot relax even at night.  As a result, the candle burns at both ends. At last, he increasingly feels that part of him is going crazy, and he has no idea when he will lose it.

This is the whole story about depression, and the point of all is,  "There is an ideal in your heart, but you get scared in life, which becomes even more scary as you dwell on it.  At the same time, the ideal becomes even more beautiful as you dwell on it so that you would rather hide yourself in the 'beautiful ideal'."


In fact, you must, like Buddha, put both feet solidly in the dust and exchange with all sentient beings.  Then you can truly see the prospect of the "World of Buddha" through all sentient beings. If not, you'll be simply walking on the opposite side of the path and falling into hell.  Your obsession with perfection will instead lead you to the process of becoming a ghost (such as the so-called "Social Justice Warrior").


We must often exchange with others and be willing to understand their situations and thoughts. As we do not isolate ourselves, we will examine, adjust and devote ourselves through these contacts. Then we will grow. When you have been severing, criticizing, isolating or closing, you will be in danger.

The ideal in your heart can become the driving force of your efforts, but it should not become your critique and rejection of the reality.  You must find a way to improve your reality in the real world and make it better.

A truly capable person is he —— who will find a vase, put in a fresh flower, and tell himself to start from right here even when he lives in ruins!

The willingness "to change the status quo a little bit" will get one out of perfectionism, but this is what perfectionists always hate to do.  However, the willingness to “change the status quo a little bit" is the most precious “Return to Good".  This is the right thing to do.

Suppose you suffer from severe depression.  There is one little thing you can do to improve yourself.  And that is, you are willing to accept this goal and say, "Well, I do not mind anything little.  Let me give it a try."  This is what it means by “Return to Good”.  The accumulation of doing these "correct little things" is like the gradual acceleration of high-speed rail. Although both need to start from zero, and yet in the end there can be huge progress. And you will be enlightened to the true “God" in this down-to-earth process.
