Hi David
My understanding regards RI is that it is primarily the restoration of a
beings willingness and ability to create. I have never bothered much
with the content - just the process.
Did I miss something? I never got that they are meant to replace any
other postulates.
Regards
Dave

Hi David
My thoughts, important only to me:
Seems that if our unconscious(forgotten) postulates are creating
our games(problems) and we get to playing games compulsively,
Me> Yes, I understand.
then none of this 'new age' positive thinking stuff comes into the
picture. It is just a distraction. For most of us this just
forces more crap into a mind that already has too many overwhelms
Me> Yes, I understand what is going on in new age thinking very well,
re adding layers. I did not imply that I was into new age stuff and
adding new age stuff to TROM.
I was into some new age stuff in the 70s, 80s and 90s.
I could not find any answers in new age stuff, so I actually gave up
looking.
Until I learned about Dianetics from a TV commercial in 97. Then I
began to understand what is wrong with the mind.
and these affirmations cannot stick when they hit a forgotten
counter-postulate.
Me> Yes. I know that well.
My point for bringing up "affirmations" was for using an idea or
practice of comparable magnitude. That is part of or in alignment
with the formula for understanding.
Get rid of the counter-postulate and you do not need the
affirmations at all.
Me> Well than what is the purpose of RIs then?
The problem with most 'new age' remedies is that they keep
'adding' stuff, while we want to be 'removing' stuff so we can get
to a non-compulsive games condition.
Me> Again you are continuing to misunderstand me, and take what I
said out of context. .
I wonder if is part of the reason so many eventually find out that
'letting go' brings the greatest results.
Me> "Letting go" as meant in new age thought, has not worked for me.
For me, I will keep on 'removing' stuff so I can get to what is
under the shit. II will just keep on using Trom for now.
This is just me trying to make sense of why my enthusiasm for
positive thinking remedies keeps waning .
Me> Again, you are over running the new age idea.
If the idea that there are only two things in this universe is true;
that is life and postulates, then you need to "place in" some
postulates on top of or into "life" somewhere, in order to make life
work.
And it is my thinking that is the whole idea behind RIs.
RIs are meant to replace the removed "undesirable postulates" that
have been removed.
And it is my thinking that the idea of affirmations are pretty much
the same idea.

David
