Chuck’s Place: Attack In Your Mind Whatever You Fear

Compassionate detachment is the key…

“…the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance,” stated Franklin Roosevelt in his first inaugural address.

Fearful thoughts literally have substance. The substance of our thoughts is the energetic play of our imagination, the building blocks of what will become substantial physical reality. Fearful thoughts manifest as earthquakes and solar flares in the physical body.

When we imagine, we engage the subtle energy of the astral world, the next stop on our infinite journey beyond life in this physical world. The currency and subtle building materials of that world are thought and imagination.

When we imagine, while in physical form, our mind shifts to the astral plane as we channel its creative capacity to give substance and form to our desires in this world. This is how the subconscious mind manifests our suggestions. What we imagine, with feeling, the subconscious mind brings to life.

At present, our world is teeming with warring thoughts. These outer thought munitions infiltrate the mind with images and emotions that suggest terror to the subconscious mind. This results in paralytic panic in the physical body, which charges the imagination to create even more fearful outcomes, a vicious cycle continuously escalating and spinning out of control.

The real battlefield for this unrelenting attack is the mind itself. At the quantum dimension of our being we are a fully interconnected ocean of thoughts, telepathically exposed to all thoughts. Exposure to thought is one thing, absorption of thought is something else.

Absorbing thought means attaching to a thought, as we doggedly think about it. This incessant attention allows the substance of the thought to subtlety take control of the mind. Even if we disagree with a thought, by mentally and emotionally fighting with it, we increase its power over us because it becomes the central focus of our attention, usurping our vital energy.

To attack in your mind whatever you fear is to become lucid. In a dream state, lucidity allows us to wake up and take charge of the progression of a dream. To become lucid in waking reality is to become aware of the thoughts we have unconsciously become enslaved by, and then to exercise our innate ability to choose where we spend our attention.

Detachment is freedom of attention. With detachment we become emotionally neutral and objective. We are afforded views of current events that clarify the cosmic cycles behind the current dance of humanity. Our narcissistic worldview, that ordinarily has us take things so personally, becomes neutral and objective, despite the horrors of the present. Though not robbed of our compassion, we absorb no grievance.

This freedom of refined attention is aided by guides and intuitions issued from the higher planes of the astral world, from helpful souls who have reached total acceptance of all that is, and seek only the truth. We open to these positive channels of truth as we exercise our lucidity and attack in the mind whatever we fear.

Wake up to the state of your mind and reclaim all of its power by releasing, with love, the thoughts that once bound you to fear. Think only of the greater good for all.

The Greater Good for All,
Chuck

Words, when repeated incessantly, have power both within the self and when spoken out loud to others. What you say to yourself matters. What you say to others matters. Are you being fair and honest with your words? Are you speaking the truth to yourself or are you saying things that will only hurt you? Are you positive and encouraging to others or are you hurting them? The power of words is exponential, a life and death matter, a matter of the utmost importance. What you think and say may be more important than what you do. Everything begins with words. Watch your words.

Sending you love,

Let your body lead you more often rather than your thoughts. Thoughts have a tendency to override the body and its natural tendencies. Habits become rulers. A decision to break a habit entails new thoughts and new actions; a decision to think and act differently. Ask your body what it needs from you. Give it time to tell you what it wants without the overarching habits and usual thoughts. It might actually surprise you with its answer.

Sending you love,

Chuck’s Place: Being In The Wave

We are both particle and wave…
-Artwork © 2025 Jan Ketchel

We are composed of two options of being, a material body and a spiritual soul. Quantum physics calls our material, physical state of being a particle, where energy amasses and concentrates into a solid form. In our spiritual state, our energy is light and free flowing, wavelike, interconnected with everything.

Quantum physics has also discovered that when energy is observed in its wave form, it turns into a particle. Free flowing spiritual energy is so sensitive to human thought or presence that it immediately consolidates into the material form that is expected. This discovery, in human dynamics, shows the impact of observation, or judgment, upon the free flow and energetic possibility of our spirit.

When our spirit is put on the spot, it freezes or solidifies into material form. That physical form becomes our personality. Thus, what we believe, and what others believe about us, becomes who we physically are.

If we are filled with positive judgments, we manifest a positive personality and positive material existence. If we are filled with negative judgments, we freeze into a personality of deprivation and undeservedness. Mental health approaches seek to loosen or enhance our attachment to these cognitions that either further or inhibit the quality and fulfillment of our lives.

Our energetic sojourn in human life predisposes our spirit to life in the solid form of a physical body. In fact, we are all solid cells in the greater physical body of Gaia, the Earth itself. Our life in physical form is the main attraction of our present energetic existence. Our body and personality remain consistent, and therefore recognizable, as we take on the challenges and attachments of the human life cycle.

Nonetheless, though dominated by physical concerns, our beingness in free flowing energetic spirit form remains active and latently available to our conscious awareness. When we sleep, meditate or shamanically journey our spirit is freed from the rigid confines of our physically constructed selves. With intent we can collaborate with our spirit in the creative unfolding of our lives.

In order to change we must deconstruct the rigid constructions of self that solidly define us. When we are in the materially deconstructed state, of pure spirit form, we are in the land of possibility, called quantum reality. The seeds of all possibilities exist at this level. However, we are also highly susceptible to suggestions that can commandeer our intent.

Thus, a thought, if attached to in deep meditation, immediately transports one into a story that solidifies into thought, emotion and physical experience, as the brain treats the story as fact.

This can be of great benefit if, while in the quantum realm, one holds firmly to a specific intent one seeks to manifest. Intent will attract that energetic possibility, and the subconscious will then take up the task of manifesting it materially.

Frequently, however, judgments arise that then construct a polarized reality. Take, for instance, an image of Donald Trump at Jimmy Carter’s funeral. The cognitive dissonance of the world views of these two former presidents, though occupying the same office at different times, can lead one to seek refuge from this dissonant tension by attaching to the value of one versus the other. This attachment then solidifies the one-sided reality one lives in.

Alternatively, if one suspends judgment and attachment, one finds oneself in the presence of many worlds of possibility. Wholeness, or all that is, includes everything, however contradictory. Tolerating all facets of the contradictions inherent in this greater wholeness affords us a broader view into the greater intent shaping our world’s unfolding.

I would suggest, for instance, that Gaia herself is in the midst of a growth spurt, compelling us, as the cells that advance her evolution, to deconstruct and reconstruct a new reality.

I refer the reader to the podcast, The Telepathy Tapes, to experience the cognitive dissonance of non-speaking autistic children freely communicating, telepathically, at the spiritual wave dimension of quantum reality. This advanced non-material mode of communication is clearly the next stage of human evolution. One cannot arrive at this perspective if they prematurely succumb to exercising the judgment of limitation toward autism.

Similarly, if one views images of both Los Angeles and Gaza, leveled and in flames, one is sure to be provoked to judgments, which will physically register as powerful emotions, negative or positive. However, if one remains in the spiritual wave state of non-attachment—observing without judgment—one may once again be treated to another view of Gaia’s overarching intent.

The longer we can maintain our wave state of being, without judgment, the more we are shown, and the greater our clarity of everything will be. Of course, this does not cancel our exercising our own intent, at both the spiritual and physical dimensions of our being, but it does enable us to act from a more enlightened perspective.

Our current physical reality dream is in the midst of great deconstruction as it advances toward renewal and new life. Our most solid footing in this time of accelerated transition is, ironically, to remain solidly, in the wave.

Embodying the wave,
Chuck

Arrange your thoughts so that you can distinguish between thoughts that are positive and helpful and those that are negative and detrimental. Thoughts that are positive get to stay while those that are negative go in the trash. Keep a positive outlook on life no matter the circumstances you find yourself in, for a positive attitude aids in prolonging a positive outlook. Allow yourself to question your thoughts as to their helpfulness, and immediately distance yourself from any thoughts that will not lead you in a good direction. Turn away from thoughts of failure, disease, decline and imbalance. Embrace thoughts of prosperity, success and calm centeredness. A clear mind leads to a clear body, and a clear body paves the way for gratitude, the ultimate positive thought!
