Note About The Author James F Might
- I was born in 1948, the middle Child out of 5 children to Eleanor and Lyle Might. I was born half dead, [ RH Factor ] the sole survivor. I was the only Child that lived for more than a day. I have often questioned whether I totally made it in to Life. As a Child I believed once you made it into Life you had succeeded, I didn't realize you were suppose to do anything other than relax from the journey.
- When I was 10, I believed I saw an eye rotating Horizontally in my Heart Throwing off Silver and Gold light. We lived in a Military Project, my Father was Career Navy, and we had moved a lot. One Day when I was staring through my Chest at this Eye and Thought I would carve it out of me and Offer it up to the Lord to hold on to it until I was old enough to Handle it. So I stared at it trying to reverse the rotation so that when it slowed I could carve it out. I must have thought I had made it because I got up from the tree I was sitting under and sort of drifted into our apartment. Once in the apartment I saw my mother in the Kitchen and stood there in a mental cloud trying to figure out how I could get the knife unnoticed with her in the kitchen. My mother looked into my eyes and Knew something was Wrong, next thing I Knew, I was in the hospital. I was kept in the Hospital for 10 days as the Doctors monitored my heart and blood, I had thrown my Heart Beat off.
- The Reason I mention this is that latter in Life, I got my degree in Philosophy at the University of Washington and while in College I took a Class in Hypnotism and became Certified as a Hypnotist. I realized that as a Child I had used the power of Visualization to affect my Heart. The instructor showed how to use Visualization to affect the flow of your blood, raising your blood pressure by Visualizing.
- When I was 10 years old, at this time I took for granted that I was Haunted by the Spirit of an Old Monk. I Believed he was not separate from me but the rest of me. He was a Like Vapor, my Shadow I would call to be with me. I think I was influenced by the Jimmie Steward movie Harvey. Every Day I would Try to say an oath to him, for the three years we were stationed in Chicago, and call to him to Help me memorize my Latin for the Altar, I was an Altar Boy. Now, since I have aged, I take for Granted I Have become that old Man.
- I had believed as a boy that I was Predestined to Become a Monk from my birth and especially after that time when I was 10.
- In the Name of Jesus Christ - Where Else do the Haunted Go!
- In College, I had met a Catholic Dominican Monk at the Newman, as I was Graduating who offered to help me get into a Buddhist Monastery if and when I got to India, He was going to India to study Sanskrit. In my Last Year in College, I was rooming with some Cousins, who had just gotten back from Vietnam , and a few friends. While two of Us were still in College, the others were just glad to be alive. I was Smoking With Them as we all tried to make sense Of the time we had been born to. This All made sense to me at 21, it was the early 70's in America. I do not Know why I didn't think of going to a Catholic Monastery, for I still considered my self a Catholic and Enjoyed the Liturgy of the Sacrifice. I was still going to the Catholic Mass and even the Newman Center. I Felt I just was born to Grab a Hold of Jesus and take him as my Tutelary Deity, go to a Buddhist Monastery or a Hermitage and Pick up where I left off. I believed this Instinctually, especially after getting stoned on Marijuana that I, My Cousins, and My Generation, at the Time, were experimenting with.
- I had been smoking and partying maybe too much that last year in College even though I spent time studying in Campus Libraries to stay away from Our Party House. I was born to an Irish Clan and the women of my family told a Cousin of Mine who was a year older than me, and the closest I had to a Brother, to take me out an party with Me to get the Buddhism Out of me. My Family had sent him back with me when I was 11 to go back to Chicago, to make sure I didn't try to carve my heart out again. My Cousin told me after I Graduated From College that I should party with Him, His Brother, and the rest of the Guys, we had been with Rooming during My Last Year at College and Learn what Women have to Offer. Sound Advice
- Since I had very seldom spoken to any since we moved so much and then I went to segregated schools, that made sense. I would go on Fact Finding Survey for one year and then I could go to a Monastery that much Wiser.
- One Year turned to Three, I never made it to the Monastery. I was in no condition to go to a Monastery, I thought I would be sweeping the Temple Floor the Rest of my Life.
- But I had been Inspired.
- I Can Tell You
- The Light from A Woman's Eyes can be Like a Bright Full Harvest Moon on a Clear Night. Oh, there May Stars Out But that Full Moon takes your Breath Away, There Maybe Stars out but you won't be able to See Them.
- I did not Lasso the Moon.
- I have Lived So Far Alone.
- I am Not a Monk, a Priest, Or a Preacher.
- I Give Devotion as a Man of the Catholic Laity. I have no Title or Position, I am not Part of Any Professional Hierarchists.
- I Consider Myself, My Lord's Work Horse, Yoked to His Work he has set before Me. I Wear Blinkers to Keep my Focus on the Path Before me.
- The Beauty of My Toil is that I am my Lord's Work Horse and I Toil in the City of God and in His Vineyard. His Gift to Me is His Insight to See the Path Before Us.
- I think I have a unique Perspective in that I take for Granted I have incarnated out of Death, Maybe we all Have. I Have Always Felt That there was a thin Veil Between The Consciousness of Life and Death and that Death Was my Shadow. I have believed since a child that I waited a long time for my time for my Time To enter life. I Take For Granted there is no Way out through Death and We Are Eternal. Jesus Calls Us To Living Immortality.
- I know I do not want to Aim any more towards a Impersonal Monolithic Consciousness.
- I know Jesus Is Right when he says the Way is through Eternal Life with Love. The Physical Body has not been created as an obstacle to experience Divinity but the Vehicle, Our Father has Created for us to Personally Experience The Divine Awe Of His Creation.
- Meditation is not only for Calming Stress but should be a means to enhance Our Mental and Physical Abilities, To Align Us to the Way of Divine Consciousness. Increasing Our Depth of Sacredness.
- As A Man of the Catholic Faith, I take Jesus as the Divine Word, Literally. When Jesus Tell Us to Pick up Our Cross Daily, I give Daily Devotion, The Lord's Prayer and Meditate to Psychically Chanel His Life Force, His Consciousness. I am becoming more Content in my Growing Sense of Timelessness.
- I have for most of my Life had my Visual Meditation as an Intellectual Pursuit to one side and my Devotion to the Other. As I have Matured They have Emerged As One. It is the Life Force of My Creator and The Path of His Breath of Life as It Enters and Travels through me that I Now see as My Devotional Meditation.
- Maybe it is remembering that instinctual waiting for that first breath on entering Life surging through you that Haunts One the rest of Your Life.
- I take for Granted that Jesus is The Incarnation of Yahweh, The Incarnation of the Divine Y-Chromosome.
- Whether you take Genesis Literally or Figuratively, For Me, Jesus' Incarnation and Resurrection Validates The Torah.
- Just as when I was a child and Looked into My Heart for that Eye, When Jesus says I am the Light, the Way and the Truth. I looked into the core of the Ray of Light and saw the color Spectrum. I have Pursued this Vision of the Core of a Ray of Light since I was 25, To Increase My Power of Visualization.
- I now feel I am, and We are called to Be A Rays of Light for Jesus.
- At First I thought of the Color Spectrum as Enhancing the Sensitivity of the Cone Cells of our Eyes to Increase our ability to Visualize. From My Experiments with Hypnotism, I believed the more one Could Visualize, the More one could Realize your Vision, to control Our internal anatomy.
- Now As I am Older, and Hopefully More Mature, I know for myself, It is The Way, The Light that is Liberating. I know that Our Consciousness is in a Constant Flow and needs Daily Alignment to Our Lord's Presence and to the Work at Hand. Just as Yahweh in The Torah called Us, before his Incarnation to Psychically Link to Him during the morning and evening Holocaust Sacrifice. We are Still Called to Psychically Link Our selves in Prayer in the Morning and Evening just as in The Acts of the Apostles, Jesus and His Apostles Did.
- One can say we should be in prayer through the day but if you believe that Yahweh Prepared Mankind for his Incarnation, Jesus, Our Creator Knows his Creation Man. He Created Rituals and Ritual Times for His Devotion just as He Created the Physical Body of Man with a Skeleton, Organs, and Muscles.
- I think it is easier for Men, since we share the Y-Chromosome with Jesus, to see Jesus as Incarnating from the Mankind's Future to Reveal the Nature of Our Future.
- Even though, As The Catholic Church teaches, it may be more Accurate to Say He has Incarnated From Timelessness into Our Time. Men it seems to Me because of the Y-Chromosome are more Vertical and Linear in their Perception of Time. Just as Yahweh appeared to the Ancient Israelites as a Pillar of Fire At Night as they were leaving Egypt.
- We Define Our Selves, in Our Life by Our Actions, During our Eternal Quest for Divine Alignment.
- Yahweh Incarnating into Our Creation, Into Our Space and Time makes His Incarnation Jesus, the Prototype of the Man, "Ecco Homo", John 19:5, "Behold the Man"
- He is the Way for Man to Live.
- 1 John 3:3 Everyone who thus hopes in Him Purifies Himself as He is Pure.
- As Far AS the Devotional Meditation, For Myself I follow this Vision that has been Maturing in me my whole Life, I would Like to Leave You with This Romans 14: 19 Let us adopt any custom that lead to peace and our mutual improvement.
- My Prayer is that Devotional Meditation, Experiencing Genesis Every Day, can Help Us Channel the Lord's Life Force Through us.
- That we May Cultivate a Greater Sense of Sacredness, a Psychic Sixth Sense of Timeless With Our Lord Jesus
- In the Name of Jesus Christ
- To Our Family, The Lord's Catholic Church - To Our Universal Sense of Sacredness
