You pretend to be the mask to attain friendship and they will be your friend as long as you wear it. What happens when your mask slips and they find out who you really are? Do you need any relationship or association so badly that you’re willing to repress your real self in order to attain it?” Many would answer YES – they have a mortgage to pay, and must wear the mask in order to stay employed. Sutphen was an independent businessman and had more freedom in that regard. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance213 views0 answers0 votesA close cousin of “white lies” are “lies of omission.” In navigating this world, one encounters people with “false impressions” based on judgments made quickly with incomplete information, or biases where contrary evidence is simply ignored. In these situations, allowing a person to continue believing and acting in a way that is contrary to the actual truth of a situation is often characterized as “lying by omission.” There can be countless motivations for doing this, from greed to sympathy to personal safety. Some would argue that lies of omission are just as dishonest as overt lies.

Most people would argue that this is an imperative and that it would be almost impossible to raise healthy children without having to resort to them. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance215 views0 answers0 votesDr. Viktor Frankl wrote that in his opinion, it was possible to “lie with the truth.” He cited as an example a man who came to him plagued with guilt about an illicit affair he had some 20 years earlier. His wife never learned of it and was still ignorant of it when he sought Frankl’s advice. Dr. Frankl implored him NOT to tell her. His reason for doing so was because he believed that the man truly loved his wife and had no desire to traumatize her. Based on what he knew of the man’s wife, he was convinced that there was little to no chance of the wife receiving the news without drawing the false conclusion that he did not love her, and consequently would not be able to forgive him. So he attempted to coach the man, that telling her the truth, would be akin to lying, for it would encourage her to believe a lie—that her husband did not ever love her. The man ignored Frankl’s advice, and the result was an ugly divorce with both parties deeply emotionally traumatized. Was Frankl right?

Number 50 was, “Refuse to make choice based upon the expectations of others. Instead, act in ways consistent with your purpose.” Out of the 69 reminders, this one, if followed uncritically, could cause a great deal of trouble for a person in this world. Sometimes, not telling someone, like an authority figure, what they want or expect to hear, could be quite problematic.

Yet, in the realm of remote healing, it is possible to heal or attempt to heal someone without their knowledge, which would render moot any notion of their consent. Isn’t that dishonest? Can Creator tell us if Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are exempt from that concern, and if so, why?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance246 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “There are many who find a good alibi far more attractive than an achievement. For an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove our worth anew each day: we have to prove we are as good today as we were yesterday. But when we have a valid alibi for not achieving anything we are fixed, so to speak, for life. Moreover, when we have an alibi for not writing a book, painting a picture, and so on, we have an alibi for not writing the greatest book and not painting the greatest picture. Small wonder that the effort expended and the punishment endured in obtaining a good alibi often exceed the effort and grief requisite for the attainment of a most marked achievement.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs233 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “The impulse of power is to turn every variable into a constant.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs298 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “It is clear that a society in the grip of fear, is not free no matter how numerous the freedoms its constitution guarantees. There are already many people in this country (America) who would surrender certain of their civil rights for a feeling of personal security.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs247 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “There is perhaps no better way of measuring the natural endowment of a soul, than by its ability to transmute dissatisfaction into a creative impulse. The genuine artist is as much dissatisfied as the revolutionary. Yet how diametrically opposed are the products each distills from his dissatisfaction.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs237 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “The genuine creator creates something that has a life of its own, something that can exist and function without him … With the noncreative it is the other way around: in whatever they do, they arrange things so that they themselves become indispensable.” How can Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol help to transform us into “genuine creators” rather than fearful controllers?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs251 views0 answers0 votesPlacing one’s full allegiance with a consensus, and making consensus approval their top criterion for conducting their lives means that consensus acceptance can be more important than facts or truth—to the extreme extent of people not believing their own eyes, or ignoring fundamental standards of fairness and decency they learned at age five. Can Creator share the karmic hazards of living this way?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Problems in Society338 views0 answers0 votesGaining wisdom would seem to be the proper way to graduate from consensus thinking—knowing the truth but having enough awareness that putting it on full display can be hazardous to one’s health. Can Creator share how prayer work and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can help every human obtain that wisdom in the least painful and traumatic way possible?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Problems in Society413 views0 answers0 votes“Fine for me, but not for thee.” For many folks, nothing highlights and center stages evil more than blatant, naked hypocrisy. The open, and even at times championed, display of inequality. In fact, it’s probably safe to say that few things reveal a true lack of divine alignment than unabashed and bald-faced hypocrisy.
