Craig Johnson

Increasing awareness and harmony with what is!

This is not a simple subject to address but I will attempt to share my thoughts and invite/encourage others to do the same.

While I can only theorize about the extent, role and expanse of universal consciousness with my current knowledge, I do know this axiomatic fact: That existence exist, existence has always existed, and for all concepts we could possibly perceive, they already presumes existence (what is).

In the context of eternity throughout existence, I can also theorize that if we can tap in consciousness as life here, that conscious life has existed in abundance and have advanced far beyond our current state (if they cured the irrationality disease before destroying themselves) and contribute as value producers to a knowledge base of what is. A knowledge base available for us to discover and tap into.

And I know that it is my/our responsibility to use my/our minds reasoning ability to honestly/accurately perceive and then integrate acquired knowledge to identify reality (what is) to the best of my/our ability in order to stay in/improve harmony with what is.

This is not an automatic process or function, but requires constant effort with a commitment to honesty, growth, accountability and the creation, production and fair exchange of values. This process requires discipline, thought and control, and acts of evasion creates blind spots in our ability to integrate reality.

This process also requires a commitment to rooting out the integration blockers in oneself, rooting out contradictions and mind created realities and mysticisms, subtle dishonesties/evasions, and ensuring that we stop creating problems that need not exist (wanting contradictions/cause without effect/effect without cause).

This responsibility is the same for all of us individually and collectively.

Can we hold ourselves accountable to this responsibility?

What about those (individually or as a group) who choose to default to dishonesty, laziness and not take accountability for their actions/responsibility’s, but instead choose to extract the unearned and undeserved by preying on us, preying on our brothers and sisters through force, threats of force and fraud (rather that be individually or as a group)?

What happens when they are not held accountable? Who’s job/responsibility is it stop them?

I say it is the victims responsibility or the victims loved ones responsibility (as is the case with retaliatory force).

What is the consequences of not holding the perpetrators to account?

If not stopped and held accountable they are emboldened and continue harming others to greater and greater degrees. They use their unearned booty to strengthen their ability/monopoly to threaten, harm and murder.

Are we in harmony with that responsibility?

Awaken self and others to these responsibilities, become fearless in what is a life and death responsibility.

Advancing consciousness or the crash hell that is knocking on our doors?

This is our current condition.

It’s up to us. And we do not have time to waste.

Gracious and Centered: A Practice In Favor of Gratitude

Picture of Terra Celeste

  • November 25, 2024

I like to ambulate on the earth at a human pace; I like walking and hiking and going for strolls. Getting out and taking a good walk in the desert, the woods, on mountain trails, or through a familiar city is an activity I really enjoy. While walking or hiking, I can dive into a ‘listing gratitude’ practice. Grateful that I can walk or hike without too much stress or strain. I’m grateful that I have access to wherever I am walking or hiking. I’m grateful that I have the footwear, jackets, the comfort of sunglasses and fresh water.

This list, in a way, details what has gone in my favor, and for those favorable conditions, I feel a sincere sense of gratitude.

For this practice, favor and gratitude are connected. Favor refers to moments and acts of kindness or support that align with your well-being, including favorable conditions or outcomes for you or your community. Gratitude is the recognition and appreciation of these moments.

Practicing gratitude involves intentionally noticing these instances, even amidst challenges, and expressing sincere thanks. Acceptance is a core part of this practice, as it requires letting go of expectations for specific outcomes or responses, focusing with intention on the present moment with grace.

Rather than suggest you ‘make a list’ of what you are grateful for, this gratitude practice starts with the suggestion that you find where you are least grateful or more resistant.

One of the more challenging aspects of any gratitude practice is working through resistance, finding acceptance, noticing the moments when you are able to be free of or let go of expectations.

So, let’s begin by acknowledging the resistance, that it can be hard or almost seem impossible to feel grateful sometimes, and build a practice from that point.

When the Door is Closed - Resistance to Gratitude

When the Door is Closed – Resistance to Gratitude

Begin by acknowledging any barriers to gratitude. By acknowledging what feels hard or resistant, you create space to notice even the smallest opportunities for gratitude that might otherwise be overlooked.

Start by noticing what you are definitely not grateful for. Where is there resistance, or even defiance? Any experience or mood you can recall where you are all attitude and no gratitude, go there if just for a moment. What challenges, disappointments, or frustrations close the door for you? Sit with this for a moment and reflect.

Finding or receiving gratitude can be a challenge when it is not already present in your day. Making space in your life to notice how the days are going for yourself and others, when there is resistance and when there is an openness may take some effort.

Notice the Keyhole - Recognizing Opportunities for Gratitude

Notice the Keyhole – Recognizing Opportunities for Gratitude

Shift your focus to the possibility of gratitude, even in resistance.

As you examine this closed door, notice the keyhole—a small but significant opening. This is the moment where you start to see opportunities for gratitude, however faint. Maybe it’s a fleeting moment of kindness, a lesson hidden in difficulty, or simply the presence of someone who cares. The keyhole invites you to notice the small opportunities for gratitude.

Imagine you’re sitting with someone you enjoy spending time with sharing a meal, and they say, “Thank you for suggesting this place; it’s exactly what I needed,” or “Thanks for the text you shared earlier—I really needed that laugh,” or “I’m so glad we made time for this.” Acknowledgments of presence and effort build the practice of gratitude into your day. While no one expects constant gratitude for being a friend, you can find appreciation and mutual care through these moments where your friendships are honored with gratitude.

Find the opening where there’s some favorable condition, a kindness, or a little effort made to give you support and appreciation; acknowledge this sincerely with an expression of gratitude.

Forge the Key - Sincere Gratitude

Forge the Key – Sincere Gratitude

Sincerity is the key in this practice. Knowing when and for what you feel grateful is key in being able to graciously and kindly express gratitude, even when there’s resistance.

The key is to be sincere – know what it is you feel grateful for by identifying the moment, act or instance when you felt gratitude. Then let any amount of gratitude be carried into the world as “thanks.” Make gratitude an active part of your life, don’t just passively let it be felt – actively acknowledge or express that you are grateful.

Do what works for you. This active part of the practice can be a note to self, or some form of expression to others. Know and keep discovering what gratitude and “feeling grateful” is in your life. Some practices suggest making a list – things you are grateful for, list moments of gratitude from your day, week, or the past year. The only recommendation I’m making here is to know what gratitude is for you, and actively notice or acknowledge when you are #feelinggrateful.

Imagine you’re at work, just doing your job, and a colleague or manager says, “I know it’s been a busy time, thanks for all you are contributing,” or “Thanks for taking the lead on that difficult conversation.” This is an example of sharing moments of gratitude. Of course, we’re all expected to do our jobs, typically there are no notes of gratitude for the fact that you showed up to work today. This is why it matters that the appreciation is not just for showing up, but for what was actionably done, why there is an expression of gratitude. Thanking a coworker for their support or silently reflecting with gratitude on the effort someone has made (yourself included) reinforces the practice.

Turning the Key - Acceptance and Releasing Expectations

Turning the Key – Acceptance and Releasing Expectations

The turn of the key is to be accepting and let go of expectations. Not everyone expects or is ready to be thanked, or receive gratitude. Like any interaction, the outcome will be affected by where you each are situated. The other person or people might not react the way you expect. Gratitude is not about controlling outcomes or ensuring a specific response. Meet the moment as it is, with kindness and grace.

Turning the key can be thought of as turning your attention to meet the moment as it is, with grace, kindness, and the understanding that gratitude is not about controlling others but about cultivating your own state of being.

Open the Door - A Gratitude Practice

Open the Door – A Gratitude Practice

When the key turns, the door opens to a gratitude practice.

The word “gratitude” shares its roots with “grace” and “gratuity,” all stemming from the Latin gratia, meaning favor or kindness. At its core, gratitude is the practice of recognizing moments of favor and grace. Practicing gratitude is not about forcing yourself to feel thankful all the time, or achieving a constant state of gratitude. Simply notice and acknowledge the opportunities for gratitude when they happen and respond with sincerity.

Find moments of gratitude big or small, maybe along with or despite some resistance. By noticing moments which are in your favor, expressing sincere appreciation, and accepting outcomes, you build your gratitude practice.

As you pay attention to your own needs, you can also become present to what the people around you are thinking and feeling, using that as context for understanding, and then offering grace. This supports the growth of a gratitude practice through your community.

Turn your focus to notice the favorable moments of kindness, support, or connection that align with your well-being, even amidst difficulty. Recognition of these moments in favor and expressing sincere appreciation openly or to yourself, transforms gratitude into a dynamic, ongoing practice. From there you can find techniques that work best for you such as a gratitude list, writing letters, expressing gratitude directly to others, or simply noticing gratitude, the key is to act with sincerity.

Wow, thanks again, Craig. That video message “hits the spot!” I must have been blessed with “The Power of Now” very early in life. I have often come to such confirmations, again and again, from uncountable sources. Such “Power” must have been formed by my baby NDEs, when I saw a Bright White Light, that keeps briefly returning into my consciousness, year in and out. My unbearable traumas closed my mind immediately to brutality, à la Stockholm Syndrome curses, but later began to emerge many blessings.

That Stockholm S. set me up for decades of exploitation and misunderstandings, while I had firm legal reason of the satisfaction of relief to kill more than one of my tormentors, like my father and mother. But I never thought of doing so. Even while I was forced to live in slavery, in a foreign land, in peaceful presence of a horde of mice, and unstable dynamite under my bed, with utilities, no outhouse, on an lonely, peaceful, tideland mud flat, haven to groan and grunt in my food, and drinking water for more than one hundred feet, through mud, in an old manure farmer’s milk can.

Ah, the good old days, the ones whose accumulating educational knowledge wisdom unwitting transmogrified into spirit-guided self-healing blessings, and not into the most popular tyrannical, mind-controlled pill-popper of infinite causes of dying.

Looking back to my life with timeline compression, I am seeing a long drawn out greatly shortened lifespan genocide of people’s misunderstanding, refusals, listening to implied alerting my messages rolling movie.

Here is a little snippet of my obsessing automatic curiosity observing:
Many years ago, I happened to see a co-worker’s open lunch box and immediately felt he is not going to live much longer. He didn’t make it to his retirement age of 55.

Another cluelessness that I had to suffer in serious ways was toxifying my body with methylene chloride, other solvents, diesel exhaust, digestive gases, cigarette smoke, hundreds of personal and widely shared personal “fragrances,” (look that up and try not to cry) that caused visible nicotine art on walls and window blinds, and giving me brain fog, in that “off hiss.” One day, I entered the office of my the frustrated lowest on the chain command bosses while he was sitting at his desk, having lunch?, which I thought to be pathetic. He had been irritated by my honest truthful activities fto save everyone’s health, especially my selfish self, and causing him a guilty mind. (Back to one later.) He reached the longest age of all other my many co-employees during more than a dozen years I suffered there, at the ripe old age of 68.

Later I learned that his eldest daughter was a nutritionist at a regional hospital. That explained a lot about his earthly departure. I would not be surprised that he is watching me type this from his electromagnetic presence in the Universe.

Sorry, Sir.

Are unseen recognitions and actions the cause that I am now a no-pill 85 year dancing man, whose autobiography keeps being censored from the NYC skyscrapers down to the little control freak ego pastor, who told one of my Spanish-speaking friends, that he came to America to kill Yanquis? I bet, that killer was most likely paid for doing that by Uncle Sammy. I am not saying that lightly because observed his lies, etc., very successful doing so with the Kool-Aid mind control method for many years and with supporting glowing TV broad broadcasts and “Newspooper” reports!
Keeps me having nightmare and amusement episodes.

Something about this seems eerily familiar. And big TV dogma fakers accourage that.
