The Meaning of Life with Dr. Bob

In honor of the coming new year – 2010 – I want to talk about the meaning of life and false hopelessness, a departure from my usual subjects.

I was sitting in the eye doctor’s office recently waiting for my eyes to dilate and be examined by the doctor after having laser surgery two weeks prior. I was practicing concentrating, to be a better meditator. What better place to practice concentration than a noisy, conversation-filled, doctor’s waiting room.

Three people somewhat older than me were discussing what they believed was the sad state of affairs that the country was in. I tuned into this conversation to hear what they had to say. One of the ladies (there were two ladies and a gentleman in conversation) said, after someone had made a derogatory remark about the country, “And there’s not one thing you can about it.”

I couldn’t stand any longer. I spoke up and said, “You lived through the Viet Nam era. You know that you can change things if you want to you. You have the vote.” (Yes, I rudely interrupted someone else’s conversation.)

That led to a heated discussion for just a few minutes between the four of us. I am really sick and tired of people saying they can do not nothing about what’s happening in their world. A son-in-law says that Social Security won’t be there when he retires. He’s in his late 40s. I get hot and say, “Come on. You have the vote. Your generation (baby-boomers) can do whatever you like, including keeping Social Security.”

What is this False Hopelessness that some people want to project? Sure it sometimes seems overwhelming, like there is nothing we can do as individuals. But I know, repeat, I know it is not true. I lived through Viet Nam. (No, I did not have the privilege of serving in the military. All due respect.) I saw what the country did. It change from pro-war in Viet Nam to anti-war in Viet Nam. The time span was not that great. In a matter of several years, did the change take place. I was in graduate school when a riot against the war broke out on campus and I still remember the smell of teargas.

Then I challenged myself to see how many individuals I could think of or look-up using the Internet who changed the world. I found over 400 hundred individuals who could be said to have changed the world by themselves.

Over 400.

I challenge you to do you own thinking and/or research about what individuals could be said to have changed the world by themselves. Of course, opinions on what constitutes changing the world will vary.

But do not give in to False Hopelessness. We, in our western democracies, at least, have the opportunity, by ourselves, if need be, to change the world.

And this has to do with the meaning of life how? When you find the Eternal Happiness, the Ever-Expanding Bliss, that is within you via connection to the Cosmic Consciousness, you never feel yourself helpless. You know you have unlimited resources at hand, at Spirit, to do what you really want to do. Because you have the Hopeful Base of the Cosmic Consciousness as your foundation, there is nothing you cannot do, when you really want to do. False hopelessness and true, real happiness, the meaning of life, are not found in the same conscious being – you.

• Who's your marketing competition? Las Vegas versus Disney World I had an interesting conversation with the Vice President of a local web design firm the other day at the Twins game. I do some copy-writing and search engine optimization for their marketing and web design clients and they were kind enough to invite me to a company outing at the Metrodome (the Twins......
• The One Point The daemons are not the monsters even in angelic lore. The idea that angels are creatures of beauty and demons horrible monsters is false. Those who tend the darkness are truly kindly but the big scare isn’t demons, it’s yourself. Yourself made manifest in all its terrible glory. So astral......
• Understanding The Natural Law Of Attraction The universe is nothing but a big bowl of energy. Energy that attracts and repels. That is how dreams are either manifested or avoided. To better illustrate this concept, imagine carrying a walkie-talkie. Although two people can be miles and miles apart, they can still talk to each other. How......
• Light, Dark, Consciousness Have you ever noticed that both angels and demons are elemental, but ordered differently? Example: Raphael and his flaming sword, a fire angel, and fire demons are obvious. Michael and his chalice, a water angel and water demons are heard of also, but more commonly in Asian cultures. I see what......
