The power of awareness by neville goddardJulio Banks
Many health issues are attributed to the mental disposition of the patient. When a person visits a psychologist, it is simple to "make them aware" of a behavior that they may not be aware the root cause. Once recognized by the patient, then it is their responsibility to make the necessary "change of mind" (metanoia) which means " transformative change of heart; especially : a spiritual conversion". The bile talks about "believe in your heart and confess it with your mouth". This is how many people concert terminal illness

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

As here
The page
That holds the words

It is being.
I watch the page
It is being.
3) Being holds all the worlds

4) When one is already fully aware
Of the soul
One fears
Returning to the reality
Of the physical body.
But we are subject to stimuli
Remember only
That there is prayer
There is faith
That there is be-ing.
5) Images have their own lives
They are invested with meanings
From the past
They are thoughts
They are stars
Words on the page
Motion on the stage
Winds that have gathered speed
Sounds vibrating in space
Cathedrals on vast lands.

6) Enlightenment is seeing
What the images try to cover
What the thoughts try to conceal
What the stars try to outshine
What the symbols try to outdo
What the actors try to outpace
What the winds try to chase
What the sounds try to drown
What the concrete structures
Try to dwarf.
7) Experience awareness
By noticing the background
Behind the images
Bliss behind the thoughts
Space behind the stars
Page behind the words
Backdrop behind the acting
Calm at the center of the storm
Silence behind the sounds
Temple within the sanctum.

As the mind is behind thoughts.
The perceiver who is not yet awakened
Is lucky to have at his assistance faith

That which is unknowable.
By faith one may rejoice
In the midst of uncertainty.

Lead to understanding of another.
