intelligent　way。　He　ran　from　the　tigers　　and　he　even　scrambled　down　the
cliff　while　hanging　onto　a　vine。　And　having　done　this；　he　remained　fully　in
the　here　and　now　to　enjoy　whatever　life　offered　him。　Although　death　was
only　minutes　away；　he　did　not　let　thoughts　of　the　future　terrify　him。　After
doing　everything　he　could　do；　he　used　his　precious　consciousness　to　fully
enjoy　every　moment　of　his　life。
There　is　a　saying；　“A　coward　dies　a　thousand　deaths；　a　brave　man　only　one。”
For　all　of　us；　death　is　a　part　of　our　future。　But　we　do　not　have　to　bee
what　the　existentialists　refer　to　as　the　“living　dead。”
We　can　always　find　things　we　can　magnify　to　threaten　our　security；　sensation；
and　power　addictions。　Or　we　can　consciously　perform　whatever　action　is
needed　and　then　turn　our　attention　to　enjoying　everything　we　have　to　enjoy。
And　we　always　have　enough　to　be　happy　if　we　are　enjoying　what　we　do　have
　and　not　worrying　about　what　we　don’t　have。
FIFTH　PATHWAY
I　take　full　responsibility　here　and　now　for　everything　I　experience；　for　it
is　my　own　programming　that　creates　my　actions　and　also　influences　the
reactions　of　people　around　me。
Whenever　you　are　unhappy；　your　emotions　are　telling　you　that　people　and
things　are　not　fulfilling　the　addiction　patterns　you　have　programmed　into　your
bioputer。　But　you　usually　do　not　talk　to　yourself　in　this　realistic　way。
Instead；　you　blame　your　unhappiness　on　somebody　or　something　outside　of
you。　You　say　things　like；　“Mary　makes　me　jealous；”　or；　“Bill　makes　me
mad。”　But　what　is　really　happening　is　that　someone　is　doing　things　that　do
not　conform　with　the　patterns　of　your　addictions　　and　your　addictions　are
making　you　unhappy。　When　you　take　full　responsibility　here　and　now　for　all
of　your　feelings　and　for　everything　that　happens　to　you；　you　never　again
blame　the　people　and　situations　in　the　world　outside　of　you　for　any　unhappy
feelings　that　you　have。　You　realize　that　it　is　an　evasion　to　blame　“others。”
You’ve　been　doing　it　to　yourself！
You　can　stop　being　a　mechanical；　puter…like　person　who　views　himself　as
“pushed　around”　by　the　world　when　you　realize　that　only　you　can　“push”
yourself。　You　begin　to　see　the　connection　between　your　emotional
programming　and　your　suffering。　You　start　doing　something　about　it　　which
means　reprogramming　yourself。
Your　mind　creates　your　universe。　Your　expectations；　demands；　hopes；　fears；
addictions；　motivations；　past　experience；　your　language　system；　your
individual　accumulation　of　ideas；　theories；　and　intellectual　stuff；　your
emotions；　the　structure　and　functioning　of　your　nervous　system　and　the
feedback　from　your　entire　body　all　interact　in　a　plex　way　to　produce　your
perceptions　　the　“picture”　you　create　from　the　energies　you　receive　through
your　various　senses　from　people　and　things　around　you。　Your　perceptions　are
thus　a　joint　phenomenon　of　the　observer　and　the　observed。
You　receive　a　feedback　from　the　people　and　things　around　you　that
continually　modifies　your　processing　of　ining　sensory　data。　For　example；
a　loving　person　lives　in　a　loving　world。　As　loving　individuals　flow　through
their　moment…to…moment　lives；　their　gentle；　accepting　consciousness　is
mirrored　by　the　people　around　them。　As　the　Proverbs　remind　us；　“A　soft
answer　turneth　away　wrath。”
Similarly；　a　hostile　person　lives　in　a　hostile　world。　If　you　go　about　with
rockness　inside　you；　if　you　view　others　as　petitive　to　you；　if　you　have　a
thin　surface　politeness　with　instant　anger；　ridicule；　and　antagonism　when
things　don’t　go　your　way；　you　will　create　people　around　you　that　have　exactly
those　characteristics。　In　other　words；　your　actions　create　the　reactions　of
people　around　you　　except　when　you　are　with　people　living　in　the　Fourth　（or
higher）　Center　of　Consciousness。　Conscious　beings　remain　loving　and
centered　no　matter　how　tense　the　drama　around　them。
The　world　thus　tends　to　be　your　mirror。　A　peaceful　person　lives　in　a　peaceful
world。　An　angry　person　creates　an　angry　world。　A　helpful　person　generates
helpful；　loving　energy　in　others。　An　unfriendly　person　should　not　be　surprised
when　he　or　she　meets　only　people　who　sooner　or　later　respond　in　an
unfriendly　way。　A　happy　person　finds　the　world　filled　with　happy　people　
for　even　unhappy　people　experience　temporary　happiness　and　joy　when　they
are　with　a　genuinely　happy　and　joyous　person！
Sometimes　people　mirror　you　but　with　a　reverse　image。　When　you　are
addicted　to　one　side　of　a　polarity；　you　can　create　the　opposite　polarity　around
you。　For　example；　if　you　are　pulsively　and　addictively　neat　and　orderly；
others　around　you　will　tend　to　be　more　sloppy　than　usual。　If；　on　the　other
hand；　you　are　addictively　sloppy；　you　can　create　neatness　responses　around
you。　The　polarity　of　your　programming　may　evoke　an　opposite　ego　response
in　the　people　with　whom　you　interact。
As　you　grow　in　consciousness；　you　begin　to　realize　the　hundreds　of　ways　in
which　you　create　the　consciousness　of　everyone　around　you。　And；　of　course；
they　reciprocally　play　a　part　in　determining　the　contents　of　your　moment…tomoment
consciousness。　This　feedback　of　consciousness　offers　exquisite
cosmic　humor　when　you　clearly　see　what　is　really　happening　。　。　。
As　you　understand　your　polarities　and　free　yourself；　you　begin　to　tune　in　to
everyone　in　their　deeper　levels　of　being　　where　we　are　alike　and　experience
oneness　together。　When　you　free　yourself　of　your　addictions；　you　help　to　free
others　of　their　addictions。
Your　predictions　and　expectations　are　thus　self…fulfilling。　Since　your
consciousness　creates　your　universe；　all　you　have　to　do　to　change　your　world
is　to　change　your　consciousness！　It’s　the　only　way　to　live　in　a　beautiful；
joyous　world。　As　you　learn　to　use　the　Twelve　Pathways　to　bee　a　more
loving；　conscious　being；　you　will　find　yourself　living　in　an　Ocean　of　loving；
conscious　beings。　Without　trying　to　change　others；　you　will　be　acting　in　a
way　that　is　maximally　effective　in　helping　others　bee　more　loving　and
conscious。
SIXTH　PATHWAY
I　accept　myself　pletely　here　and　now　and　consciously　experience
everything　I　feel；　think；　say；　and　do　（including　my　emotion…backed
addictions）　as　a　necessary　part　of　my　growth　into　higher　consciousness。
The　Living　Love　Way　to　Higher　Consciousness　is　based　on　the　instant
emotional　acceptance　here　and　now　of　that　which　you　previously　regarded　as
unacceptable　in　your　life。　Acceptance　simply　means　that　you　won’t　cause
yourself　emotional　conflict　because　of　your　current　perceptions。　Emotional
acceptance　doesn’t　mean　that　you　have　to　continue　living　the　rest　of　your　life
with　any　particular　person　or　situation。　You　are　free　to　do　anything　you　prefer
to　do　　but　don’t　be　addicted　to　the　results　of　your　actions。　If　someone　does
something　that　“hurts　your　ego；”　you　will　grow　fastest　if　you　consciously
regard　him　or　her　as　your　teacher　who　is　enabling　you　to　discover　which
addictions　you　will　have　to　reprogram。
You　really　savor　living　when　you　consciously　experience　everything　that　you
feel　and　do　as　taking　place　in　the　theater　that　we　call　our　world。　You　see
yourself　and　others　as　actors　in　the　daily　drama　of　life。　But　the　real　you　is　not
your　body　or　mind。　You’re　not　the　actor。　The　real　you　is　your　Consciousawareness。
And　your　Conscious…awareness　is　just　digging　the　whole　show
from　the　audience。　Shakespeare　wrote；
All　the　world’s　a　stage；
And　all　the　men　and　women；　merely　players；
They　have　their　exits　and　their　entrances；
And　one　man　in　his　time　plays　many　parts。
When　you　watch　the　entire　drama　of　your　life　and　that　of　other　people　from
the　safe　vantage　point　of　the　audience；　you　begin　to　provide　a　distance　that
enables　you　to　see　your　addictions　more　clearly。　You　will　find　it　easier　to
pletely　accept　the　addictive　dramas　that　you　have　to　play　out　on　the　stage
of　your　life。　You　will　find　a　turned…on　joy　in　consciously　experiencing
everything　as　a　necessary　part　of　your　growth　into　higher　consciousness。
To　grow　in　the　Living　Love　Way；　you　do　not　have　to　drill　yourself　and
criticize　yourself　with　military　precision。　Just　experience　everything　in　an
accepting；　relaxed；　and　conscious　way　　and　realize　that　every　one　of　your
experiences　is　perfect　for　your　here　and　now　growth　into　higher
consciousness。　Your　addictions　will　gradually　fade　away　when　you　use　the
Living　Love　Pathways　to　consciously　interpret　your　moment…to…moment
stream　of　consciousness。　Don’t　push　the　river　　just　experience　the　river
consciously　from　the　vantage　point　of　the　Twelve　Pathways。
Chapter　7
Interacting　With　Others
Flowing　　not　manipulation　　is　the　way　of　higher　consciousness。　Flowing
means　moving　with　the　forces　around　us　　being　in　tune　with　the　vibrations
of　the　people　and　things　in　our　environment。　Flowing　enables　us　to　find　the
love；　beauty；　and　peace　that　we　are　missing　in　our　lives。　But　flowing　is
impossible　based　on　the　models　of　how　to　be　happy　that　we　learned　in　our
childhood；　for　we　cannot　flow　or　harmonize　when　we　are　the　slaves　of　our
addictions。　Our　addictions　force　us　to　manipulate　ourselves　　and　others。　As
adults　whose　minds　and　bodies　have　pleted　their　structural　growth；　we
have　the　potential　of　flowing　in　the　river　of　our　lives　in　a　beautiful；　loving
way。
