New to this Site, and having a good time...but
So massively diverse. Gonna take a while before I find a place to park. Quality of content is excellent, feel as though I can relate to just about everything. But where do I start?

Welcome Raymond!
Just today we were discussing how to answer this question, so it is no surprise the synchronicity brought it here :). There is a lot of information here to be sure, and the new members group is a good place to begin.
The question becomes what do you want to achieve, know, learn or do, and what is an honesty accounting of where you are towards this. This will help us direct you where you can expand in that area, or even answer any questions you may have directly.
Resistance for me is one of a kind, in that its all about expanding you, and having more of you show up, building inner resistance. So which part of you are you interested in :)

Thanks Mark! I will need to give it more thought.

Hey Pete,
Hope you love Oak Park like I do. Think it's great to have found a "local" contact. Feel free to share with me anytime. I'll do the same. I'm semi retired. Teach part time at community college and work part time in my family's business.

Greetings Raymond!
great place to start in my humble opinion would be to check out Sevans radio shows! I am currently going through all of them again starting from the oldest. Audio--->Esoteric Radio--> sort from oldest first.
Good vibes to you Raymond! this site never ceases to amaze me.

Quote: "But when will you wake up to the even more vitally important realisation that your ego thoughts, words, actions are equally destructive of your planet because these are consciousness/energy forms, and consciousness/energy forms are precisely what your world is created from...
Your entire world is nothing more than a giant consciousness energy form composed of billions of individual consciousness forms sprung from and based upon the Void of Universal Consciousness, which you could term ‘God’, and have...evolved from apparent nothingness to its present state through the process of your own desires and longings.
Therefore, you must try to understand that when you pour your ego consciousness through the medium of your thoughts, words, actions, into your world, you are sending out consciousness forms which are entirely contrary to TRUTH or REALITY.You are helping billions of other like-minded people to create a direct conflict with your SOURCE of BEING, that which underpins and sustains all existence. Ego is a destructive or countervailing force to what IS."
I may understand this, intellectually, and can boast some progress toward incorporating the idea into my awareness. Yet, transcending conditional reality remains a challenge. The real question is why.

Because it is conditional.
Are you making the transcendence conditional upon something happening, or going with what happens?

Very interesting question Mark. The sages say that the transcendence lies outside of time and is not burdened by thought; that where there is thought there is ego (that which must be transcended). By "Going with what happens" you seem to imply the dispensing with labels, categorizing, etc. That would seem like the adding of our own view or conditions to that which simply is, thus generating confusion (maintaining separateness). Too, I might just as easily stick with your first point, being dependent "upon something happening", in which case I am only responding to my programming. I can't even be certain that I'm asking the right questions, not sure if I'm relying of an appropriate frame. Still, life is good. And if that be the case then so is death.
