Given the impracticality of verifying the results of such interventions for oneself, is this therapy a helpful complementary approach to LHP sessions? Is it just an opportunity that arose as a result of my own LHP-DSMR sessions and my own inclinations to explore these methods?” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 6 months ago • Divine Guidance100 views0 answers0 votesHe asks: “Given Creator’s warnings about possible corruption of psychics and possible interference by spirit meddlers, can this therapist, and other similar therapists, be regarded as reliable?” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 6 months ago • Divine Guidance80 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “I am finding it hard to socialize and meet new friends at the moment and finding myself often alone and have intense moments of despair. I am finding it hard to break old patterns. Can Creator cast light on this situation, its causes and solution, and what prayers and action can I say or do to help with this?” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 6 months ago • Divine Guidance92 views0 answers0 votesThe viewer continues: “I am asking Creator to help me manifest new healthy friendships and make me a worthy vessel for being a good friend at present. I asked precisely about new level of severe physical tiredness and was told it’s a detox healing reaction. Can Creator comment on how long this might last as it’s so severe at the moment I am going to bed early and finding it hard to get through the day and it’s having a severe impact on my daily living?” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 6 months ago • Divine Guidance82 views0 answers0 votesThe viewer continues: “I used to have a much clearer psychic contact with my guides and guardians but it seems so much more difficult these days to feel the connection and love from spirit. Can Creator comment on the reasons and solutions to this issue?” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 6 months ago • Divine Guidance90 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “How can humanity know and understand, and especially how can parents teach their children, what a war is, without them having to experience a war; what hunger is, without them having to experience hunger; what Dictatorship is, without them having to suffer under a Dictatorship, and so on? Surely there has to be a better way to truly learn and understand about evil and suffering than experiencing all these horrors individually over and over again, generation after generation?” What is Creator perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Divine Guidance250 views0 answers0 votesMonica Raymond said, “Little white lies are part of everyday life. If you’re in court being charged with a felony, you’re probably going to be tempted to lie. Or if your girlfriend asks you if the sweater she is wearing makes her look fat; you’re going to lie because you love that person. There are different reasons and justifications to lie; it’s human nature.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance203 views0 answers0 votesPamela Meyer said, “White lies keep social dignity intact and are far more prevalent than most people realize. 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.
