Dakilahsuan started handling this subject today according to the change in schedule effective September 1.
Dakilahsuan: Contextually if you can communicate and find “Me” from within, does it mean you cannot find “Me” from without? What if you consider everything, every body ---the environment and the things around --- as one with you,---then you do you still need stillness?.
Bisataoling: You still have to withdraw your senses from the objects around you so you can see the reality.
Dakilahsuan: Which is more important, finding Him within or experiencing Him from without?
Bisataoling: Silence is most important. Meditation is the best way of knowing God.
Dakilahsuan: But you can realize yourself through others also?
Bisataoling: But sometimes you have to go within to be silent because oftentimes you are absorbed in your worldly activities. If you have Him within, you can carry that feeling to the outside world.
Dakilahsuan: My experience of Maya is that you cannot escape from Maya.
Bisataoling: That is why, meditation is most effective because through it you stay connected, with the Source where Maya has no hold..
You can know Who You Really Are through meditation. Experiencing from without is experiencing Who We Are Not. You can go from within because the reality is inner. The illusion is outside.

BisaTaoLing is handling this subject starting today.
Being Love versus Being In Love.
The ancient sages declared that ultimately everything is made of consciousness. When we experience conscious- ness purely that is love. According to Bengali poet Rabindernath Tagore “Love is not a mere impulse; it must contain truth, which is law”. The merging of love, truth and reality is the great revelation of UNITY CONSCIOUSNESS.
The force of love changes reality by changing the perceiver. Love is a state that transcends reason and whose purpose is simply to allow the experience of a larger shared reality.
All love come from within. Only you can open and close your heart. The power of love to nurture and sustain us depends on our commitment to it “in here”. The education of love begins in a moment and ends in eternity. Use love as your mirror of the timeless. Let it nurture you certainty that you are beyond change, beyond the memory of yesterday and the dream of tomorrow.
Love is not quantifiable. It is either present or it is not. Because pure love is unconditional, there is no one and no thing that is superior in God’s kingdom. Love is an experience total and complete. It is not possible to love a little, or to love a lot.
Anatomy of the Human Body
Today we begin our study of the Human Anatomy.
The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of the human body and of all living organisms,.
As the basic functional unit of the body, each cell is a highly organized molecular factory. The trillion cells that make up your body come in a great variety of shapes and sizes. This great diversity, even in the subcellular level, reflects the diversity of function of different cells in the body. For descriptive purposes, a cell can be divided into three principal parts:
1. Cell (plasma) membrane – the selectively permeable cell membrane surrounds the cell. It controls the passage of molecules into and out of the cells and separates the cell’s internal structures from the extra-cellular environment.
2. Nucleus is the large spherical or oval body usually located near the center of the cell. It contains the DNA, or genetic material, that directs the activities of the cell. Within the nucleus, one or ore dense bodies called nucleoli may be seen. The nucleolus contains the subunits for ribosomes the structure that serve as sites for protein synthesis.
3. Cytoplasm and organelles. Cytoplasm is the cellular material between the nucleus and the cell membrane. Organelles are specialized structures within the cell that perform specific functions. The cell membrane and all the membranes surrounding organelles within the cell, are composed of phospholipids and proteins.
DISCUSSIONS:
Dakilahsuan: How come we are not our body? Our body was not created at once. Our body is a consciousness in its own formation. “We are not the body” means we are not the form. But our form is the crudified form of consciousness, which serves as the vehicle of the spirit.
Bisataoling/Patshakti: But our body is not Who We Really Are. The body is just an instrument of the consciousness, which gives a sense of existence to the body. The consciousness cannot manifest, cannot be known, except as matter in the form of the body but the consciousness exists by itself.
Patshakti: We are in the body, but we are not the form although the form is part of consciousness. It is that part of consciousness that has crudified at a different rate of vibration and thus serves as a “shell” or a base for the consciousness. Others consider this as the “vehicle” for the spirit, but it is just not a “mere vehicle”, in the sense of a material vehicle like a car. This body also undergoes a series of growth and formations, and becomes more complicated in terms of glandular development and complexities to be able to cope with the psychic demands of the evolving consciousness. As the egoic consciousness expands so does thus the body, which is the ego’s vehicle of expression..
Patshakti: The body is actually a consciousness assuming form, which the pure consciousness, the pure spirit, also uses as a means of expressing itself. In other words the spirit, or the consciousness, uses the crudified aspect of itself as its own vehicle. In this sense, the spirit (soul) and the body (matter)are one, made of the same stuff, but with distinctively assigned functions to serve the purpose of the Soul, your Higher Self.. When the body (the lower personality), however, is attuned to the agenda or purpose of the Soul, and cooperate with the Soul’s sole purpose, then they are truly unified. (Daks/Pat Shakti)
Who We Really Are is the Spirit within. Who We are Not is the Personality, matter, the body, the base , so to speak. Who We Really Are and Who We Are Not are technically one and the same, since Spirit and Matter are one. The Body, the Matter, serves a contextual field for the Spirit to know Who He Really Is. Without this contrast, the Spirit cannot manifest in this world of duality.
But Who We Are Not is an illusion, a reflection in the mirror. It is not the original, it is not Who We Really Are. It is just a contrast to know Who We Really Are. Both the Spirit and the Body are vibrations at different rates of frequency. The Spirit is at a higher frequency, while the Body (matter) is at a lower frequency. If we can bring our body’s frequency to the level of spirit’s frequency, then matter truly becomes light and spirit and matter now become truly one. Yet, even before this happens, the constant awareness of the unity of spirit and matter makes the three-part being that we are function truly as a Unity.
In this sense, it is difficult not to see the Body as Who We Really Are because our three aspects operate in the same body. Without the body, the Spirit cannot manifest, cannot express itself, cannot know Who He Really Is experientially. Yet, without the Spirit, the body cannot also operate. For it is the Spirit that animates the Body, that gives life to the Body. And if we remember that the Spirit is Life itself, then we may consider the Body as lifeless the moment the Spirit goes.
But Who We Really Are is not really lifeless or dead. Because Who We Really Are is Life itself, without beginning and without end. It merely changes form. And the matter of which the body is made of dissipates back into elements until it is reformed into a new body again. In this sense, there is actually no death. Death is an illusion even if it seems so real. Life really never ends, because it never began. Life has been, is always and will ever be.
Life and Consciousness are technically the same, but not quiet. There is a shade of difference. Consciousness is the Source of all Life, and Life the expression of that consciousness in the unit structure. In other words, Life is Consciousness physicalized. Yet consciousness is in everything, only that in what we call inanimate objects Consciousness cannot express itself as Life because of the heaviest bondage of the Cosmic Force, of Prakrti, and lack of the necessary ingredients and the absence of a congenial environment for the expression of Life, we as we understand it.
Dakilahsuan: Does everything evolve? If God is everything, how can something not evolve since God is change itself?
Patshakti: Actually change is not evolution per se. It is a process of evolution. Without change, you do not evolve. You do not have the means to evolve. You do not have the means to experience, to recreate yourself. Evolution is generally understood as a change towards higher forms of life, higher levels of consciousness, a journey back to the Source. If changes or activities or actions are towards the other direction, that is, away from the road to subtlety, then you are taking a longer route.
Dakilahsuan: What is wrong with this?
Patshakti: Nothing wrong really. You are just expressing your free will to experience yourself at a lower frequency. But you still have to change towards a higher frequency if you want to experience the ultimate. You cannot change towards this direction, unless you are aware that this is the way to go to experience it. That awareness must eventually lead you to realize, or make real again Who You Really Are. And Who You Really Are is the One that exists at the highest level of frequency.
If you choose not to experience this, you may do so. You are at full liberty to do so. If you already know Who You Really Are and are aware of the happiness and bliss that level of consciousness or existence can bring you, then continuing to stay where you are, that is in the lower frequency, will only prolong your separation from God or Who You Really Are and deprive yourself of the birthright of joy and happiness that truly belongs to You. This is not the way of the wise.
9/4/03 WISDOM
Today, Dakilahsuan handles the Wisdom aspect starting today. Also, we begin the day with the study of the New Revelations, also by Donald Walsch.
Highlights:
1. The New Revelations provides the tools provides with which to pull ourselves out of despair, lifting the whole human race to new level of experience, to a new understanding of itself, and to a new expression of its grandest vision.
2. The human race has reached a Time of Choosing. We can either move forward building together at last a new world of peace and harmony based on new beliefs about God and Life, or move backward, separately and continuously reconstructing the old world of conflict and discord based on old beliefs about God and Life.
3. Ultimately, if we continue with our Old Ways, assuming no dramatic alteration in our present pattern, will simply cave in on itself. Not in centuries, not in decades, but in years.
4. What would these new beliefs be? What outcomes would they produce? What do we need to know if we want to help change the self-destructive direction in which humanity is moving.? This book answers these questions.
Humans understand the severity of the problem, they simply do not understand the nature of the problem. So they keep trying to solve it at every level, except the level at which it exists,…which is the level of belief.
The problem facing the world today is a spiritual problem. Our ideas about spirituality are killing us. We keep on trying the world’s problem is if it were a political problem, or an economic problem, or even a military problem, and it is none of these. It is a spiritual problem, and that is the one problem humans don’t seem to know how to solve.
The basic message of all the sacred scriptures is the same. What is different is how human beings have been interpreting them. There is nothing “:wrong” with having different interpretations, but what may not benefit us is separating ourselves over these differences, making each other wrong because of these differences and killing each other as a result of these differences.
There are many holy writings and sacred scriptures, but we act as if there is only one. Your sacred scripture is that which is really sacred. All the rest are poor substitutes. Not only is there only one Sacred Scripture, there is also only one way to interpret that Scripture, your way THIS IS SPIRITUAL ARROGANCE.
This spiritual arrogance is what has caused us our great sorrow as a species. We have suffered more and caused other people to suffer more – over our ideas about God than over our ideas about anything else in the human experience. We have turned the source of the greatest joy into the source of our greatest pain.
Human beings are willing to give up everything just to be right.
How do you find a way to get past all of these mixed up beliefs that human have? By transcending them. Going beyond, moving past. It does not mean to completely reject or totally destroy. It does not mean “other than”, it means always being “larger than”. Your new beliefs will be a combination of the new and the old, not a rejection of the old from top to bottom.
Rejecting completely your present beliefs would be to discredit so much of what has been taught, so much of what has been understood, so much of what has been done, and so much of what has been good. It would make too much of the world to “FEEL WRONG”.
You were never “wrong” about anything. You simply didn’t have a complete understanding. You needed more information.
Divine Inspiration is the birthright of every human being. You are all very special. You simply do not know that. You do not believe it. Our religions tell us that we are sinners, that we are unworthy, that only very few could possibly achieve a level of worthiness; hence, no book written today could possibly contain sacred truths or the Word of God.
Most people can accept that God’s truths have come to humans through humans. They simply cannot accept that this could be true of humans living today.
This is how we have constructed it:
If it is old, it’s worthy; if it is new, it is unworthy.
If it’s old, it’s true’ if it’s new, it’s false.
If it’s old, it’s right’ if it’s new, it’s wrong.
If its old, it’s good’ if it is new, it’s bad.
This peculiar mindset is what makes progress in our planet so difficult, and evolution so time-consuming. What complicates it is that we have applied this mindset only to inanimate objects and to ideas. When it comes to people, we have it constructed the other way around. We dismiss out of hand some of the brightest new ideas and some of the wisest older people. Our stubborn tendency to cling to our past, our refusal of innovation or new thinking has been slowing the process of our evolution.
What can we do?
Change our beliefs and correspondingly change our behavior. Beliefs create behavior. All behaviors are created by beliefs. All. You cannot make a long-term change in behaviors without addressing the beliefs that underlie them.
Most humans try to change things by focusing on behaviors. They keep thinking they can make things better by doing something. So everyone is running around trying to figure out what they can do. The focus is on doing something, rather than on believing something.
But radical forces within our societies have always sought to change things by using the power of thought, not action. For they know that thought produces actions.
Our world is facing enormous problems right now. And we must solve the problems at the level of belief. We cannot solve the problems at the level of behavior. Seek to change beliefs, not behaviors. After you change a belief, the behavior change will change by itself.
We must change our beliefs before we can expect the beliefs of our offspring to change. If you do not, you will stand by and watch your young do terrible things and wonder there they could have ever gotten such ideas.
DISCUSSIONS:
Dakilahsuan: This idea of “changing your belief and changing your behavior” existed long before, but was lacking in terms of expression and we are not yet ready to embrace this consciousness at the time this information was disseminated.
Bisataoling: May be it was not the right time.
9/5/03 PROSPERITY
Bisataoling: What can God do to make us change. Is there anything God can do to get us connected? To be able to achieve anything, the point here is there is no limit to what you can do. You just have to be God. What can God do to change our life. Can we not do anything to change our beingness? Do we still have to desire to be Who We Are as God? What propel them to greatness?
Dakilahsuan: Their belief in themselves. They dare not limit themselves.
Bisataoling: But these are only in the doingness. What about people who have not achieved. What about the ordinary people? After all, it is not what you have done, but you have been while doing it. Your doingness, you will claim as achievement. But I do not know if that is the purpose of your life.
Dakilahsuan: Every person can be great just by doing. You can be great in anything you want to experience in this life. There is no limit for as long as you believe you can do it. If you seek to be God, just be. Whatever one can do, he will achieve by beingness.
But you do not have to wait to be God to do great things. You do not even have to know you are. Just do not accept any limits. Just believe you can do anything and everything as long as you believe in your self and in your power to create those things.
Take Bill Gates for instance. He has become the richest man on earth by what he has done. And he has done this not believing he is God, or knowing that he is God, but as a human who believes he can do and proceed in doing it; as a human being who accepts his great potential and exploit to the fullest.
In other words, you do not have to have that awareness of your Godself in order to do great things. This is true to Mahatma Gandhi, to Einstein, and to Jesus Christ. Jesus did not preach as God to change the consciousness of the world. He preached love and forgiveness in the name of God, as a Son of God. Mother Theresa did not think she was God to do the great she did. She just went ahead and do things for people, seeing God in every one she helps or serves.
Patshakti: You too, do not have to wait to achieve the beingness of God before doing great things. You can make yourself great by your actions now, remembering always that everything and everyone you serve is the manifestation of the Supreme Consciosuness.

Using the Illusions
“There is something very vital that would come to an end. If you give up the illusion, you are giving up evolution.”
There is nothing that you are not. That includes your body. You are what you are. You are everything. (Daks).
“Moving away from the hard realities of life is to move away from the illusion.
How do you move away from the illusion?
Use the experience of that which you are not in order to have the experience of That Which You Really Are. There is nothing that you are not. You are all of it. You are everything. God is All of It. God is everything. Yet for you (God) to know the part of it that you are now expressing, you must imagine that there are parts of you that you are not. This is the Great imagining. These are the illusions of life. Expressing the glory of Who You Are in the moment that you are confronted with an illusion is what the journey to mastery is all about. Within this context, illusions can be very real.
How do you use the illusion?
First, understand that illusions are illusions. Then decide what the illusions mean, and finally choose the aspect of Divinity that you which to experience within a localized contextual field. You can choose to experience the illusions either as present-moment realities, or as memories from the past. Remember them, but never live them as if they were here-and-now realities. See them as what they are – illusions. Use them for what you will. The illusions are your tools to experience a particular aspect of you, of Who You Really Are. You may combine the illusions to experience multiple aspects or experience an individual aspect in multiple ways.
The movement away from the “harsh realities” of life is to step away from the illusion, and to see them for what they are. Illusions exist as magnificent contrasting contextual fields, allowing you to experience Who You Really Are, for you cannot experience Who You Are, except in the context of that which you are not.
Discussions:
Dakilahsuan: To step away from the illusion is to look at what you want to create. Otherwise, it is hard to step back. You see it as temporary. You have to step away and then detach from the situation. Once you attain certain level of creation, do not get stuck. Proceed on changing it. Go on. But before you can move forward, you have to be fully accepting. You cannot change, unless you accept it first, even if you do not agree with it. Acceptance does not mean agreement. But agreement always means acceptance. In any experience that we have, ask “Is This who I Am?”. If you are, then enjoy it. If not, change yourself anew. There is always the grandest version of Who You Are.
It could be I do not know what anything could be. But what if we need this to become? Do you need anything to become?
Bisataoling: Yes, the beingness of what I am now does not need anything. What if I need to be prosperous to buy whatever I want?
HEBs say that they remember their past. All you have to do is experience everything. We have already experienced everything. All we have to do is remember.
Dakilahsuan: If so, how can we have karma or unfulfilled desires if you have experienced everything already?
May be as a collectivity. But as a unit entity, there must be reason for evolving by experiencing unfulfilled desires. There are others who have original karma. That is why evolution is cellular. My point is even if you have million of lives, it is impossible to experience the multitude unit souls that are experiencing right now. We have billion of lives, and we are looking here of only a thousand lives.
Bisataoling: These are something you have done before, but only you forget. Unless you develop consciousness, you cannot remember because you have to experience from others’ experience, too.. Life is nothing but an expression of pain and pleasure or no pain or no pleasure (neutrality.)
Dakilahsuan: May be it is not experience, but beingness. You are correct, but if I may add to that, in the soul are embedded a series of different experiences and in different degrees of beingness. If you get all the degrees of pleasure and pain, there is no end to it. That is why, we have already experienced everything, because evolution is going on. If your purpose is to experience Who You Want To Become, just get the degree of experience you got before, which will propel you to move forward. Otherwise, you keep on repeating your experiences and you cannot move forward. You are trapped in the pain-and-pleasure experience. Before he has no where else to go.
Bisataoling: He goes to the center. He can create further beingness. If you are in the center, there is no more illusion. This where pure love is. There's no more judgment.
If you are in the center, do you still evolve?
Dakilahsuan: Yes, because you are still in the final point, which is the next dimension. Otherwise, how do you transcend the next dimension? Illusions are still there but you already understand and use the illusion.
Bisataoling: In the next realm, there is no time and space. What we see is really full. There is no more perception, segment of time and space. Our perception is no longer bound by time and space. It is accurate. Otherwise, the full reality cannot be reflected. You still evolve but on the mental level. It will depend o your creativity. Our evolution is becoming. It is your creativity. Otherwise you cannot hold own to your creation and you can not get their full consciousness. You have developed the mental aspect.
Dakilahsuan: But what’s the difference? You have to be out of your mind to be merged with the pure conscious- ness. You still have to empty the mind and clear it of all attachments or the bondage of illusion. Right now we have to be oriented on the present moment because the reality is what we perceive as is. Necessarily, what you experience everyday must be moment-to-moment so that you can hold on to what reality is.
In the 4th D, where there is no gap of time and space, how can evolution prosper if your mortality is Who You Want To Be? Now you are trained to create yourself and hold on to create your reality.
Thought is not subject to time and space in the 4th D. You can be creative. We are actually not creating our reality. We are just aware of it. What you hold on in your thoughts will become your reality.

Pre-Meeting Brainstorming:
How can we attract more and more people to our website.
What projects we can do to start generating income for our Group?
It seems the most viable option is to start packaging our Exercises and Martial Arts series and starting selling this to the people. A number of alternatives were considered:
• Tying up with existing clubs such as Kalimasada and Jujitsu to cross-train. That is, we will train their members for a fee, using their facilities and space.
• Franchising. This will involve standardizing our methods of instructions, training people for accreditation and authorizing them to provide similar training. The Agoyangyang Center, for a fee, will provide supervision and accreditation and further training if necessary. A franchising agreement will have to be drawn for guidance and compliance of both parties.
• Setting up our own gym (we rent a space), advertise our program, get students and train ourselves. Here, we need money for the down-payment, refurbishing of the place to suit our needs and making it as presentable as possible and advertising to promote the program and get students. The modules will have been properly organized, ready for offering to the public.
• Mass marketing through schools as part of their fitness and calisthenics program , specially the butterfly dance.
• Mass marketing to train PNP personnel, private security guards and other organizations interested. This will probably be on the knife and chako programs. But some apprehensions are indicated that without spiritual foundation, this knowledge may be used as an offensive weapon, instead as a defensive one.
Each of this possibility will be further investigated for viability at this time.
DISCUSSION?
How do you connect to the Air element? The Website article on flow specifically asked the reader to enlist the intervention of the Air element if they so desire. The element is responsible for movement in the body – breathing, expansion and constrictions of muscles, and movement even of the cells and the nerve impulses.
How to do it is something we do not have technology right. Suggestion: delete this portion of the article until specific methodology is developed.
What is the Agoyangyang consciousness? How do we guide people in addressing the four aspects of our Philosophy. What do we tell them about the concept of Immortality, Prosperity, Harmony and Wisdom.? Why are all these aspects important to developed in man?
On immortality, do you really want to be immortal? Is immortality of the physical body possible?. Can you really overcome sickness and aging or even death with our concept of immortality?
Actually, our approach to life is a wholistic approach. You can start on any one of the four aspects and gradually expand to the other aspects. For example, if you start with Immortalitty aspect, you will be concerned with your physical, mental and spiritual health, for health is achieving balance in all these principles inside us. That means you will have all the means to maintain your physical body in good health, by giving it proper food and suitable diet, nutrition and exercise. This means you must earn enough to be able to buy the necessary food and food supple- ments, take time to exercise and relax and follow a daily routine that best for balancing your dosha. That also means living an exemplary life to make it worthwhile; otherwise, there is no point in achieving physical immortality if you cannot make your body function congruently with the purposes of your soul.
To be immortal and make a good quality life possible, you must have inner harmony and the ability to develop and maintain harmonious relationship with others. Without this harmony, your life will be stressed and this will negate the gains of your physical exercises and diet program.
Creating and maintaining harmony with others is aligning yourself with others and the whole of nature. This will easily lead you to opportunities for growth and income you need to carry on the business of life, especially a long, quality life. You will, therefore, have to touch base with Prosperity and Abundance.
With a long, fruitful and harmonious life, properly backed by material resources, you will eventually develop Wisdom and share this with others. You will eventually find yourself teaching others about what you have achieved in these Aspects.
If you choose Spirituality and Wisdom, how can you stay spiritual for long if your relations with yourself and others are not good. You must first achieve that inner harmony. How can you have oneness if you cannot even help others, if your health is not good and you cannot read good books How can you socialize and do service, if you have not developed your material resources to support your spiritual endeavors?
You can, therefore approach the Agoyangyang Concepts through any one of the aspects. But each aspect actually embodies within it all the elements of the other aspects. Therefore, simplify your approach depending on what the man wants and is interested in. If he is interested in physical health, then start from there. And eventually it will expand.
It is possible that people are having some difficulty in understanding the message of our four aspects in the Website.. This needs to be elucidated upon, simplified if necessary, to increase understanding and interest, and traffic to the site.
It will be difficult for people to embrace our philosophy if they do not understand, or cannot even practicalize it. We have to tune up to the right frequency to establish contact and communicate our message.
After this discussion, we proceeded to the reading of the ANATOMY OF THE HUMAN Body, touching on the structure and function of human heart and the whole circulatory system.
We maintain that mind and body must be balanced so that the physical body will be healthy. That is why you have to be totally accepting to avoid any stressing arising from failed expectations. Your consciousness and awareness matter most.
You can control your body if you are aware of its organization and its functions.. You must be aware of your behavior too. You cannot underestimate science and technology.
Study of immortality alone will already involve or cover the other aspects. If you start with prosperity, once you have enough, you will share. Your soul craves to achieve the beingness of being able to address the problem of poverty among the people.
It is similar to the principles of Aikido. In the practice of Aikido,
1. You have to relax completely.
2. Put your weight on the side
3. Put your mind below the navel.
4. Focus your attention on breathing. Shutdown your mind.
It is necessary to the four to unify body and mind? Not, just follow one and the rest will follow.
Credibility has also been considered most critical to the success of our mission. Either show what we have or show what we can do.
9/11/03 - WISDOM
Time was spent discussing how to package and market our Agoyangyang and Martial Arts. Possible market includes the following:
• Tie-up arrangement with sports clubs such as Kalisamada and Yoga asanas training.
• Training of PNP and military personnel.
• Tie-up with schools’ sports programs.
It can be packaged strictly as a Physical Fitness Program for all ages, or as a Martial Art for the sports-minded.
Question has arisen as to whether it should be packaged and marketed singly, or as a package with the other four (4) aspects, namely, Wisdom, Prosperity, and Harmony and Immortality.
Initially, the feeling is that we should market it as a package of the four aspects. Therefore, the Agoyangyang Dance is just an aspect of the Package. However, the reality is that only very few can actually take the four aspects at the same time and for a longer commitment of time and effort.
9/12/02 - PROSPERITY
Discussions centered on inviting Alex of Switzerland to take our training most possibly Knife and Chako. Bisatao- Ling is to make the initial contact. The idea is to train somebody here who can in turn teach the Agoyangyang Dance and the other aspects of the Agoyangyang philosophy in Switzerland. The questions of whether or not to charge for the training, and if so, how much and whether or not we should franchise, have arisen and will have to be resolved before Alex comes.
Relative to this plan, therefore, we have to finalize our training modules for the Dance, as well as for the Knife and Chako. We also have to prepare on the other aspects on which Alex is to train to make him an effective represen- tative of the Agoyangyang group in Switzerland.
Registration of the Agoyangyang trade name has gathered some urgency. Pat Shakti will look into the possibility of registering it in his name temporarily until a suitable organizational structure is established.

C0MMUNION WITH GOD, PAGE 133
Using the Illusions
The Illusion of Need may be used to experience the huge aspect of Who You Are that you might conceptualize as that which needs nothing. You need nothing to exist, and you need nothing to continue existing forever i. e. speaking of you as the Spirit within the body.
The Ultimate Reality is that everything you think you need you already have. It exists inside of you. Indeed, it is you. You are what you need. Therefore, you give yourself everything you need in any given moment. In effect, you need nothing.
Your body is something that you have. It is not something that you are. It is a wonderful tool. Yet you do not need your present body to continue the process of creation.
You can master Life while in your physical form, but you do not have to wait until you are removed from it to know the glory of life and who You Are. You can do this by achieving detachment before you die, i. e. through the simple expediency of stepping away from the illusion of need.
You come to know through a deeper comprehension that death does not exist and that Life goes on forever.
You cannot die without God, but you can imagine that you are doing so. In the same way, it is impossible for you to live without God.
Seeing the illusion of need as an illusion allows you to use the illusion as a tool with which you can experience the glory for which you were created and know yourself as Who You Really Are. You become what you know yourself to be.
The Second Illusion
May be used to experience your inability to fail at anything. Nothing you do is a failure but merely part of the process you have undergone to achieve what you are seeking to achieve and experience what you are seeking to experience.
What you are seeking to experience is That Which You Are. You cannot experience That Which You Are in the absence of that which you are not. When you experience that which you are not, it is not a failure to experience but a way to experience That Which You Are.
The way to step outside of the illusion of Failure is to simply see everything as part of your success. All things lead to your success, produce your success, are part of the process by which you experience your success. Yet the illusion of Failure is necessary to experience the exhilaration of success. There is no such thing as failure. There is also no such thing as that which is not God. There is only God, manifesting in its many aspects.
Always remember that you never fail to succeed.
The Third Illusion may be used to experience your UNITY with everything. If you are united with something for a long time, you will at some point cease to notice that there is a “you” at all. The idea of “you” as a separate entity will gradually disappear. Unity, in the absence of disunity is not experienced as ecstasy but as a void. In the absence of any separation, ever, Oneness is noneness.
All of life is a process of experiencing Unity and separation, Unity and separation. This is the very rhythm of life. Indeed, this is the very rhythm that creates Life itself. Even when a thing is apart, it is always together, for it cannot truly separate, but only get larger.
God cannot dismember Itself. We can appear to have come apart, but we have all simply become a part. Our intrinsic Unity is experienced once again when we re-member. True separation, from any one or anything, is simply not possible. It is an illusion.
Craft your experience of total unification with this tool, and use the tool again to re-create the experience over and over again. When you see nothing but you wherever you look, you peer through the eyes of God. As your sense of Oneness increases, pain and disappointment will vanish from your life.
Use the Illusion of Insufficiency to experience your abundance.
God is abundant and so are you. When you have everything and do not know that you have everything, you have nothing. The only way for you to know what it means to have everything is for you to at some point have less than everything. Hence, the illusion of insufficiency.
Your insufficiency was intended as a blessing, through which you could know and experience your true and total abundance It is necessary to step outside of the illusion – to see the illusion as illusion, and move away from it – in order to have this experience.
Fill the insufficiency that you see, wherever you see it outside of yourself. For this is where the illusion lies, outside of yourself. However little of anything you have, you can always find someone who has less. Find that someone, and give to them from the abundance that is yours. Seek not to be the recipient of anything but to be the Source. That which you wish to have, cause another to have. That which you would seek to experience, cause another to experience. In so doing, you will remember that you have had these things in your possession all along. Seek the kingdom of heaven by providing the kingdom of heaven to others, by being the kingdom of heaven, in which others may find refuge and strength, by bringing the kingdom of heaven and all its blessings, to all those whose lives you touch. What you give you become.
9/17/03 – IMMORTALITY
We continued with the study of the Human Body. This time, we took up the events in breathing, the movements of gases into the lungs and the exchange of gases. We also discussed conditions resulting from excess or lack of oxygen. Under certain conditions, especially in high concentration and with increased pressure – oxygen becomes toxic. It may reactivate some enzymes and produce cell damage particularly in the nervous system. The mechanism for the regulation of breathing was also discussed, along with artificial respiration.
The DTI refused to register “Agoyangyang” name by itself. There has to be a definition of the business related to this name. The following alternative names, therefore, were considered:
Agoyangyang Research and Study Center, Agoyangyang Consultancy services, Agoyangyang Learning and Study Center, Agoyangyang center for Personal Growth and Spiritual Understandiong, Agoyangyang Center for Conscious Evolution. Agoyangyang Center for Unity Consciousness.
The Agoyangyang Center for Unity Consciousness was presented as our business name. The registration process will take three weeks, after which we shall follow up.
9/18/03 – WISDOM
Alex was contacted and he indicated he was willing to come and train with us, but he would like to see the tape of the art first. Dakilahsuan and Bisataoling will arrange this.
9/19/20 – PROSPERITY
The time allocated for this aspect was used in discussing the preparations for the coming of Alex to the Philippines to practice with us. It was felt that Alex can be our representative in Switzerland if he so choose, in which case he will have to undergo training not only in the physical, but also on the spiritual aspects of the Agoyangyang
philosophy.
9/24/03 – IMMORTALITY
PHYSICAL IMMORTALITY
Bisataoling: If enough people will desire physical immortality, the lifespan of people will increase. The other issue is the measurement of time, because there is no such thing as time. How are you going to measure how old people are, aside from their chronological age.? By changes in his body?
Dakilahsuan: What about the mind and consciousness? If we are not our body, how can consciousness control your body?
Bisataoling: Our body will follow anything. Your thought is not constant and sometimes it will sabotage it. There are times that we give in. It takes time for out thoughts to manifest. That is why immortality should be construed as continuity of consciousness. You cannot immortalize the body if you cannot control your emotions and your mind. You are conscious of what you are being. What you are today and what you are tomorrow vary. There are masters who could live in other planets out of their own choices. They leave their bodies but their consciousness they bring with them.
Dakilahsuan: That is assuming that we are not our body.
But God may not want to have a glimpse of the future because he lives in the present, The present moment is already perfect. That is why immortality consciousness is not called physical immortality, but continuity of consciousness. If you want to be in control of your physical body, you have to change your consciousness, because what you are in the present moment can readily achieve your immortality if you change your consciousness.
Agoyangyang dance is meant to attain this objective. You will be able to unify the conscious workings of your left and right brain and become very balanced. We are not checking on the circumstances and problems of life. We do not really know what triggers it, our exercise or our study? It could be our knowledge, our acceptance, our idea of illusion and changing perspectives or internal representations.
Bisataoling: So, is it possible to create heaven on earth?
Dakilahsuan: Yes, possible, assuming that you believe in heaven or hell. With unity consciousness, you can be in heaven while in your physical body, here on earth.
Who I am I?. What do I really want? I Am Who Am? I Can be any body. Every act is an act of self-definition.
Are we going to charge Alex for our training services? Or shall we make the training free and just for a percentage of the sales the moment Alex start to have students in his Studio? If so, how much should this share be? What would be our basis for charging and what would be our basis for not charging?
Basis for Charging:
• We will be spending a lot of energy on this training and we should be properly compensated in
order to have proper energy exchange. Without energy exchange, energy flow will stop.
• Alex can afford to pay and is more than willing to pay. We need the money to help alleviate our situation
especially that we are starting on our mission.
• In any energy exchange, some body has to pay the bill. Either us or Alex, in this case.
• Not charging may create a bad precedent. How are we going to charge our local enrollees if we
provide free training to a foreign counterpart?
Basis for Not Charging:
• Alex is our first student and we intend to make him our Agoyangyang representative in Switzerland. It is only appropriate that we provide him all the training. This is not actually wholly free as Alex has to take time off from his job, pay for his transportation to and from the Philippines, as well as pay for his stay for at least three months, in Cebu. This is a lot of investment on his part and our defraying the cost of his training will certainly facilitate his coming.
• Having a representative in a foreign location is perceptibly good move on our part. People out there listens more to anything new, new sports of martial arts program, new concepts and ideas and new philosophy or consciousness.
• If Alex does agree to be our representative and undertake to help spread our mission, therefore, that means the whole European market could be open for our Martial Arts Program as well as for our Unity consciousness philosophy. This is huge market and who knows what it can bring us in terms of new members franchising revenues for our organization.
• With our participation in defraying Alex’s cost of training, greater bonding and affinity could only result. It is most appropriate for somebody we are intend to develop as our representative in Switzerland.
• Alex is our best opportunity in this connection. He knows martial arts and is running his own studio right now in Switzerland. He knows Master Akbar Ling and Bisataoling and trusts us. Giving him a free training could further cement this relationship. It is like saying that money does not matter much for now. It is the opportunity to expand overseas that is more important at the moment.
• This notwithstanding, it is Bisataoling’s feeling that Alex somehow would give some money voluntarily to help us out. This is preferable to charging him outright for the costs of training and make it a strictly business transaction. It would also make our dealing with him here more of a family relationship.
• If everything is paid for, the moment Alex returns home, then we should not expect that he would be motivated to help us out voluntarily in spreading the Sports Program and the Agoyangyang Philosophy in Switzerland.
• As to whether or not this will create a precedent, it is really up to us. We could have the first few local enrollees for free if this IS THE PRICE we have to pay for the promotion of the program at the beginning. The initial trainees will also be able to provide us with good feedback on how we could make the program more viable in the future. Some amount of sacrifice will have to be made if this is necessary to get us started.
9/25/03 WISDOM
Bisataoling reports that Alex is definitely coming. The sooner the better, but he is coming alone. Areas of coverage of Alex training will most likely include the Agoyangyang Dance (Basic and Advance, as well as Expert Level), Sarimanok (Knife), also in its basic, advance and expert configurations) and the Chako. A more detailed schedule will be worked out to fill Alex’s projected three month stay in Cebu.
A local partner will most likely be located in Cebu. Most likely possibilities are: Lyndon, Ben Jayma and Edgar, Ned Neponge. Other likely candidates include Bobby Savellon, Teddy Tojong. This is insofar as the Physical Training is concerned. The spiritual side of the training will also be correspondingly worked out to provide a suitable foundation for the Martial Arts training. Possible topics will include, off hand: The Agoyangyang Cosmology and the Theory of Creation, a grounding on Unity Consciousness, which is the base of the Agoyangyang Philosophy. The Metamorp- hoses of Change, evolution, will also be thoroughly covered, along with whatever timely or suitable topics can be gleaned from the Conversations with God, Friendship with God, the New Revelations and the Agoyangyang Spiritual practices.
We are All One, There is Enough for Everyone, Beingness, Doingness and Havingness, The Ten Illusions are the likely topics to be covered. But so much depends on Alex’s interest and capacity to absorb the teachings that are available for remembrance.
The Purpose of Existence, the Relationships of Body, Mind and Spirit, of Macrocosm and Microcosm, Unit and Cosmic Consciousness, Health and Nutrition are among other topics that can be explored.
But are we ready? Are we prepared to share the knowledge that we have absorbed the past three years?
According to Dakilahsuan, the measure of our readiness will be when we have no more questions ourselves, and we have total clarity about our philosophy, what we are trying to do and why?
Yet, as we learned, you do not have to be totally enlightened to enlighten others, to wake people up and bring them back to themselves. On such topics as we feel certain of the completeness of our understanding, we should be prepared to share. There are lots of these topics (subjects) that we have taken to heart and undoubtedly we can share to Alex with certainty and clarity that are born only about of a good understanding and complete awareness.
The suggestion is for each Core Partner to prepare an outline of the topics he would propose to be covered and these can then be coordinated with the overall schedules.
9/29/03 HARMONY
We took some time to discuss further the preparations required for Alex’ training Dakilahsuan reported that he has already identified what would constitute a basic, advance and expert course on our Agoyangyang dance and Martial Arts. There is also a grading system to rate achievement in each of this course and these are classified into Adept (with a rating of 75-80%), Expert Level (81-90%), Master Level (91-95%), Elite/Instructor Level (96-100%). Martial Arts training will be for at least two hours per day, six days a week. A minimum 60 hours is required for each Basic, Advance and Expert Course, respectively.
The Instructor Level will require training on How to Train and provide coaching or leadership. At this level, the trainee shall have acquired the corresponding values in each of the Four Aspects of the Agoyangyang Philosophy. Actual and written exams will be administered to test the level of mastery of the trainee.
COMMUNION WITH GOD.
Using the Illusions
Judgment hurts deeply. Judgment is never a product of Love. Yet no one is ever guilty in the eyes of God. No one does anything inappropriate, given his model of the world.
Non-judgmentalness is concluding that something must be so because it is what is observed to be so. Judgement is a sentence based on what you think is true. It is you who now choose it to be. You are continually creating your- self; judgment, therefore, is pointless.
As awareness increases, comprehension increases.
Bisataoling:Are LOVE AND PATIENCE the same?
Dakilahsuan: If you are Love, you have patience, you have tolerance. What if you want to discipline somebody in the context of love?
Bisataoling: That is presuming that you are conscious of what you are doing. Given the model of the world, it means you are aware of the purpose. Model grows with the expansion of the consciousness. I would like to think that there are certain levels of consciousness that we have to be aware of. God has said our own model of the world is that of a primitive consciousness. Then that defines Who we Are in that particular stage. It doesn’t mean that God will not shed some light or guidance.
He is telling us that in the HEB society, there is no such thing as fear and guilt. God gives us guidance and even warns about everything we can do to destroy our own ego.
Dakilahsuan: When we discipline a child and correct him, we are only guiding him. The desired outcome is not inflicting pain or punishment. It is correct behavior and inculcating discipline with love. If we do not help another remember, then what is the purpose of believing that we are all one?
The classic example of being judgmental is that of America judging Iraq to the extent of invading it and toppling Saddam, a sovereign of another state or country.
It is not trying to defend America for doing what it did in Iraq, but America has its own reason, and as God says, nothing is doing anything inappropriate given his model of the world. America is trying to have a world free of terrorism. This want is shared by all freedom loving peoples of the world. Saddam was sowing terrorism according to America’s intelligence findings. America’s action was based on fear, fear that terrorism will strike again. It was actually a call for help! But did Saddam deserve to be ousted form his country? Who is to judge this?
Bisataoling is of the opinion that America was being judgmental in condemning Saddam and it is now reaping the consequences of its actions.
Is God interfering in the affairs of men and nations? Or is He functioning purely as a witnessing entity?
When God inspires somebody to do something, is this not interferring?
What is really meant by witnessing entity? Does it mean that God just leave men alone in what they do to one another and let the Law of Consequence operate by itself? Is it correct to leave people in dire poverty and suffering in the name of “letting each soul walk its own path?”
There is a feeling supported by Bisataoling that God does not interfere and merely witnesses and that man’s evolution is much more accelerated this way? It is Pat Shakti’s feeling that people (as God incarnate) should care for one another and help gain freedom not only in the area of economics, politics, and social justice, but also in the psychic and spiritual arenas., We should do everything possible to help make people aware of their true nature and their ultimate destiny in God and help remove the obstacles of true emancipation wherever and whenever they appear.
