Several studies have found that an average person is lied to from 10 to 200 times a day – mostly just to keep a conversation going, to avoid conflict, or to establish a connection with someone.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance217 views0 answers0 votesBarry Ritholz said, “Little white lies are told by humans all the time. Indeed, lying is often how we get through each day in a happy little bubble. We spend time and energy rationalizing our own behaviors, beliefs, and decision-making processes.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance203 views0 answers0 votesDale Carnegie wrote the multi-million bestseller, How to Win Friends and Influence People. Advocates would say that Carnegie taught a method of manipulating people that created “win-win” scenarios, where both the manipulated and manipulators benefited. The detractors would say Carnegie’s methods can be used to screw people. Any kind of indirect manipulation is problematic, as it arguably violates free will, especially if used to encourage “uninformed” decisions. Hypnotist and Researcher Dick Sutphen wrote of Carnegie in his book, Radical Spirituality, “The Carnegie Course teaches you to say what will work to get what you want. Isn’t that being phony or a hypocrite? Forget sincerity, forget honesty. Forget being real. Carnegie teaches you to be a diplomat and wear a mask. Masks are the fear that who and what you are isn’t adequate, so you pretend to be somebody else.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance211 views0 answers0 votesSutphen, additionally, said this about Carnegie techniques, “If you use Carnegie techniques to win friends, the friendship has to be based upon a two-way manipulation. 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.

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 Guidance216 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 Guidance248 views0 answers0 votesSutphen came up with five basic categories of Karma. 1. Balancing Karma, which is mechanical cause and effect, such as not being able to conceive a child because of child neglect in a past life. 2. Physical Karma, which is the misuse of a body in one life, so the appropriate affliction is created in a later life, such as being overweight because of starvation in a previous life. 3. False Fear Karma is from a traumatic past-life incident that generates fear that is no longer valid in the current context of your current life. 4. False Guilt Karma from taking on responsibility or blame for a past-life incident for which you are truly blameless. 5. Developed Ability or Awareness Karma, such as musical talent.

He directed her back to the real cause of her pain. She began to describe her hard life as a Christian nun. She resided in a tiny cell and suffered physically. She said, “Christ suffered for us, so we must suffer for him as well.” She then said under hypnosis, “The physical pain began about the time I decided to devote my current hypnosis practice to Christ Consciousness work.” Sutphen explains, “Somehow her unconscious mind ‘connected’ the past-life suffering for Christ to a need to suffer doing similar work today.” Sutphen directed her to release the pain and she was fully recovered upon awakening.

Is that an accurate approximate figure?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Coronavirus COVID-19239 views0 answers0 votesProfessional wrestling is a unique mass entertainment category. It involves highly talented and trained athletes, yet it is not really a competitive sport. It’s more of a competitive sports portrayal or mimicry. Today, it is widely understood by wrestling fans that the outcomes of matches are scripted and known ahead of time by everyone but the fans. But as recently as the 1970s, this was not the case, and controversy raged about whether professional wrestling was real or not. Today, it is called “sports entertainment,” a category name adopted only after it became painfully obvious what the reality behind professional wrestling really was. This naked attempt to dupe the fans, even for entertainment purposes, seems “spiritually problematic?” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Extraterrestrial Corruption of Human Institutions222 views0 answers0 votesIf football is the sports mimicry of warfare, with its plethora of military terminology and complex field strategies, professional wrestling is a mimicry of the gladiator “fight to the death” matches held during the latter days of the Roman Empire. The interlopers are always attempting to corrupt humans at every turn, so it would seem that they would rather see an actual return of deadly gladiator spectacles, rather than watered-down mimicry of them. Is this evidence of successful human resistance and human spiritual maturity as compared to Rome? Or if given enough time and desire on the part of the interlopers, would real gladiator fights to the death eventually return? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Extraterrestrial Corruption of Human Institutions233 views0 answers0 votes
