    And now ask a few Reflectors how much of this writing is magical thinking or simply wishful thinking? How much is (f)actual…

    btw the text is a direct copy of ‘The Definitive Book’ which without DreamRave Variables and Cosmology is not so definitive, but read some of these descriptions in the quote above, and then consider duality, because the text clearly does not.

    Like this one: “Reflectors are here to enliven and lift up the energy of others.”
    that is wishful thinking, and most only ever written by non-Reflectors.

    Can you imagine the newbie Reflector coming into a group of HD people, and they don’t enliven or lift up their energy. This innocent Reflector will be called not-self. And Reflectors have been already called this, because of these nonsensical descriptions.

    And then there is a few ‘ifs” in there too, pre-conditions to be met, or else. And those ifs and the causality (if this then that, results), are simply magical thinking. It does not exist, and there is no proof for any of that.

    I wrote about some of these Reflector fantasies here before:

    Another one
    “Reflectors can be so attuned to the transit program that they can also measure other’s attunement to it. They sense who is living authentically, or who has been conditioned by the transit field and become a victim of it. The more people allow their lives to be conditioned by the transits, the farther away they are from fulfilling their unique potential.”

    a multi-parter: “Reflectors can be so attuned to the transit program that they can also measure other’s attunement to it.”

    I don’t think so, how… whut, I mean, come on !

    “They sense who is living authentically”

    absolutely impossible, duality and differentiation make this impossible for me to gauge yours, ever, period. If we consider ‘no choice’ and Trajectory, and include 4% of 4%, then non of it is your doing, it is not your gain and not your fault. What would authentically even mean? Does it include the not-self, authentically not-self, does it include duality. No these descriptions do not.

    “or who has been conditioned by the transit field”

    how can one NOT be conditioned? It does not exist

    “and become a victim of it.”

    Sure

    “The more people allow their lives to be conditioned by the transits, the farther away they are from fulfilling their unique potential.”

    fucking bullshit because you can not escape conditioning. Everyone is all the time conditioned by it, but the effect of it, even if yes you are an active filtering agent of everything, aka oneplusone, you plus whatever is happening, makes for a perceived experience. The effect of oneplusone is not a mathematical formula. HD is not math.

    To pretend HD -is- math, makes it into a religion.

    You can only not live accordingly (to the conditioning of the Transits), however, even this is not a given, at all, far from it. We are here to -see- whether we do or do not, observation. Where we can see, ‘damn these Transits got me in a spellbind today’ and ‘these Transits (‘ effect on me) had me up all night, mind racing, I could not fall asleep for hours and hours’. To observe, witness and see. And in doing so, maybe/perhaps grow some awareness.

    But and, what then, has the attunement with the program to do with anything? ‘attunement with the program’ is this not the exact same as living according to the conditioning? What is this attunement and what is it for Reflectors, or about them, it makes no sense. And then others do this too, so why does it matter that Reflectors can measure your attunement? (which we can not) It is vague and gibberish.
    Some say this ‘attunement with the program’ is knowing what is coming, to not be surprised with the next wave of weirdness from the 7 centered living peoples. Well, maybe.

    All this makes HD into a religion, filled with rituals of do’s and don’ts

    The beforementioned 4% of 4%, ones Trajectory, (and no choice) determines whether or not you live according to your HD, or not. Which is fine, Duality (and differentiation) once more. To vilify doing so however, to vilify the perfectly logical and reasonable helplessness and incompetent not-self (nutso self), or even/also some effects of mechanics we have no control over is just plain ridiculous.

    The text is very long, and I have limited energy, maybe some other time I find the energy to comment on the whole thing (or if someone initiates me into it)

    Ad of the Day: Adult Retailer Makes Probably the Craziest X-Rated Ad Yet (NSFW) Director Rankin’s best work ever? By Tim Nudd

    Sex sells, particularly when you’re selling lingerie and sex toys. And now, two of Britain’s top creatives have teamed up to make one of the most extravagant erotic brand films ever—a frenetic two-and-a-half-minute film for London adult retailer Coco de Mer. TBWA\London’s Walter Campbell and renowned photographer/director Rankin provided the creative vision for the film, which packs in a huge number of sexual images and vignettes, along with some other odd imagery. It’s basically an art film with the Coco de Mer logo thrown on the end. But Campbell and Rankin are immensely proud of the spot, which will run online and in cinemas.

    Rankin, whose résumé includes a ton of top-notch fashion films, tells Campaign that the ad is “definitely the best thing that I have done in film. … It has layers of meaning, and to get that in advertising is rare.” He adds: “Doing something like this is about creating an experience. We’re putting it on a different level. Putting it on a level with enjoying a film. People call it content marketing, but it’s just about making something people want to watch.” Campbell said: “The erotic doesn’t get the same overt attention as everything else on the cultural menu, so we created a film to surprise, excite and most importantly, encourage people to delve that little bit deeper into their fantasies—to reignite that connection.” Several other directors also worked on the film, including Vicky Lawton, Trisha Ward and David Allain. The production company was Rankin Film. Postproduction was done by MPC.
