  • Memes aka Curses!

    Hello Beautiful Souls

    This thread is for a discussion and more importantly, PLATFORM to eradicate non-useful memes among us here at Energetic Forum, and as you will see, this will impact the world belief system!!!

    First though, what are Memes?

    Since returning from the Matrix Energetics seminar in Hawaii, I have thought a lot about something that was presented in Level III called Memes. This is because I hear them repeated endlessly in associations with people all around me. Many do not realize that the expression and belief in certain sayings, or memes, is extremely powerful and a direct contributor to the creation of events in their lives and those around them.

    What are they?

    Here is a definition as presented in Wipedia:

    A meme, (IPA: /mi:m/) as defined within memetic theory, comprises a theoretical unit of cultural information, the building block of cultural evolution or diffusion that propagates from one mind to another analogously to the way in which a gene propagates from one organism to another as a unit of genetic information and of biological evolution.[1] Multiple memes may propagate as cooperative groups called memeplexes (meme complexes). Biologist and evolutionary theorist Richard Dawkins coined the term meme in 1976.[2] He gave as examples tunes, catch-phrases, beliefs, clothing fashions, ways of making pots, and the technology of building arches.
    Meme theorists contend that memes evolve by natural selection similarly to Darwinian biological evolution through the processes of variation, mutation, competition, and inheritance influencing an organism's reproductive success. So with memes, some ideas will propagate less successfully and become extinct, while others will survive, spread, and, for better or for worse, mutate. "Memeticists argue that the memes most beneficial to their hosts will not necessarily survive; rather, those memes that replicate the most effectively spread best, which allows for the possibility that successful memes may prove detrimental to their hosts."[3]
    A short story written in 1876 by Mark Twain, A Literary Nightmare, describes his encounter with a jingle so "catchy" that it plays over and over in his mind until he finally sings it out loud and infects others (also known as an earworm).



    Fascinating, eh?!?!?!

    But lets go for a summation of what Wikpedia made sound all hoity toity
    Basically memes, as Dr. Bartlett explains it, are like 'global thought-forms that tie into and are reinforced by Morphic Resonance'. He also says that "a deeply sustained Meme can act like a dark enchantment and can sustain the person in a limbo of consciousness where healing may not be able to occur." Hmmm, dark enchantment? Sounds like a CURSE to me! Indeed, that was Dr. Bartletts point - that meme's are like self-made or acquired curses that work in every similar way to any other description of what we often think 'curses' are.

    What to do about them though??? These things are like software programs operating in our sub-conscious mind. They have a life of their own that is shared with all others 'connected through the Net' of the collective unconscious mind. So, just using 'software' as a useful fiction of sorts, we can do all kinds of cool things with these memes! We can press DELETE, MODIFY, or COPY and PASTE new memes that are much more useful.

    Though some of these tools to change such software were a heavy-duty FUN part of M.E. level III, WE can tap into some of these tools RIGHT HERE!


    First though, it is important to realize that Memes are not always harmful, that there are also helpful or useful meme's which we will discuss.

    Now to the tools, in the following post...

    Love and light and here's to no longer being in the reality of Memes that are no longer useful or helpful!

    TOOLS to De-Meme ourselves!

    There are several ways to deal with Memes, from mild to wild. Hehe, I KNOW you want to know the wild ones, but hold on, I'll get to them

    First Tool:
    BE the Observer of everything you say and do.

    This is an EXTREMELY POWERFUL TOOL for ALL of LIFE! However, in the case of Memes, if we are always 'listening' to our own internal dialogue as well as everything being uttered from our mouth, we will SOON hear any of the 'sayings' that are self-limiting, that are CURSES which have been built up and passed along down through the centuries of people on this planet.

    When you hear internal dialogue, or hear your own mouth speak a non-useful Meme, simply be aware of it and Observe. This act of observation with the 'feeling' intent of no longer expressing such Memes will have them fade away all on their own. Replace such dialogue and spoken word with the Meme or belief that you WANT, at the same time. Do not resist the Meme with any language of opposition - this will only make it STRONGER!

    Be aware as Observer of the things others are saying and apply the same process in your own mind as you hear them. Try to share new positive Memes in such an environment, however, if there is great opposition to such new thoughts, choose to be in a different environment ASAP! These things are CONTAGIOUS and PROPAGATING on a level of communication and subtle energy that goes far beyond just what the mouth speaks and the ears hear!!!


    Second Tool:

    Creation of a 'virtual device or procedure' of whatever works for you.

    The one that I really like is the 'virtual creation' in the mind of a Stargate as shown in the movie. Yes, in your mind create that big wheel-like device that has the arcane symbology around it. Imagine placing it over the location you are in where the Memes are being spoken. (If it is yourself you wish to change, then set it up over your head or near your mouth etc - make it all up!) Or, if you are conducting a healing modality, set this up over you and the one you are intending to help.

    When the device you have chosen is virtually set up, TURN IT ON. With your intention as the removal of no-longer-useful Memes, they will be sent away to 'another place', like a trans-dimensional permanent vacation!

    There are other tools as well, but if you like one of these, try em out! OR, perhaps you have a good one you'd like to SHARE! PLEEEEEASE DO!

    Next post...setting up this thread as both a Stargate to remove Memes of any who'd like to join in, or as a 'Copy and Paste' to change the 'software' running in our sub-conscious mind.

    Love and light,

    tephen

      What a great way of understanding subconscious programming that can exist on a cellular level, a collective (or morphic) level, and everywhere in between!

      I have found that rather than spending energy trying to get rid of non-useful memes, my time is much better spent replacing them with useful, productive memes.

      There are so many tools to do this-

      Reading
      Meditation
      PATHS (Program Authoring The Human Subconscious)
      SCIO
      Energized water and other items
      Conscious "day dreaming"
      Conscious control of thoughts via tools like the Emotional Guidance System
      Choosing what media we expose ourselves to
      Choosing what people we spend our time with
      Matrix Energetics
      and the list goes on!

      This is going to be a FUN thread!

        Please list your Memes!!!

        Ok, up till now, some may have wondered 'what the heck is he on?' 'What is all this Meme silliness?'

        I'll start out with a few that come to mind:

        'Money doesn't grow on trees'

        I AM - followed by whatever self-limiting Curse people have come up with over the eons! Such as 'I AM always sick at this time of year'...'I AM allergic to this or that food'...'I AM Soooo Unhappy'

        'Everyone knows.....<fill in the blanks>'

        'Its a proven scientific FACT ....<fill in the blanks>' (by the way, many scientific 'facts' are MADE UP lol)

        Ok, if you feel so inclined, please add more Memes to this thread...it is a special thread with a virtual Stargate set up over it to send them off to some other reality where they will no longer affect us! <---Not kidding here! This most powerful tool is straight out of M.E. III and it works!!!

        ALSO, please ADD Memes of positivity that will be USEFUL and HELPFUL to our lives, and to the collective of Humanity. Things that express only our true Divinity, Unlimitedness, Abundance, and anything else that ADDS new creative thought-forms!!!

        Thank you SO SO MUCH!

        Here's to non-useful Meme-lessness

        Here's to the successful installation of Useful Meme's!

          Thank you so much for adding more 'tools' while also emphasizing that Memes are not something you 'fight' or resist!

          Adding them to the list in this thread is like throwing them in the trash, except in a wayyyy cooler science fiction'ey way! Also, there really is a new 'idea' being created here in sending them off. A two-point, virtual-reality creation of the Stargate on this thread is as REAL as anything else our consciousness creates!!! WILD EH? The more of us that add to this creation, the more powerful it becomes!

          Here is another Meme, a particularly insidious one as it transfers responsibility for our thoughts and beliefs OUTSIDE of OURSELF!

          'THEY SAID.......<fill in the blanks>'

          Peace,

                I like this, I hadn't heard the word meme before, but I "specialise" in helping myself and others remove limiting mind chatter. Just being aware and taking note can be very revealing. I recommend Lynn Grabhorn's book Excuse Me Your Life Is Waiting, the 30 day exercise works wonders. It takes a bit of dedication, but it can be achieved. It's a habit well worth becoming expert at. Creates new thought patterns, which is where Paths also comes in as Kevin said too. Noticing, being diligent, treating yourself kindly, all reaps rewards. Great thread!

                      LOVE this thread, Stephen!

                      What a fantastic idea!!

                      To replace Pamela's "I'm broke", how about -

                      "Money comes to me easily and frequently from many sources."


                      And here's one to send on Permanent Inter-Galactic Vacation -

                      "I'm not good enough to/for......."

                        Some more memes....

                        Hello everyone!

                        Thank you tephen for introducing us to memes!

                        Here are some general memes I believe have plagued each of us at some point or another and need to be dropped kicked pronto!


                        I am not worthy
                        I am not good enough
                        I am not smart/intelligent/talented enough
                        I am not deserving
                        I am a loser
                        I will never amount to anything/They said I'd never amount to anything
                        Life is hard/struggle
                        I won't make it/They told me I won't make it
                        I'll always feel fear/anxiety
                        There is no hope/now way out for me
                        I will always be this way
                        I can't change
                        I'll always be sick/have this illness/disease/syndrome


                        NOW for some good memes!!!!

                        I am at peace
                        I am filled with joy
                        Abundance is all around me
                        Love is all there is
                        I am powerful
                        I create only good for myself

                              Thank you everyone!

                              The Stargate is blasting those out of here!

                              I particularly like to send on their way, the Memes you hear around the office/coffee/supper tables, when people are just chatting about things that 'are true' and 'everybody knows'.

                              For example:

                              "THEY say that your memory fails as you get older, and its TRUE"

                              "I'M <insert age>, yup, GETTING OLD" followed by laughs, but this is powerful self-messaging as well as including everyone else in that morphic field!!!

                              "My eyesight isn't what is used to be when I was younger"

                              "It FIGURES...."

                              "I'm not surprised he/she/they ALWAYS do/say/think that"

                              "Once a <insert assumption> ALWAYS a <inserted assumption"

                              "That is just HUMAN NATURE, you can't fight it"

                              "He/she/they are always LUCKY, I wish I was that LUCKY"

                              "Its in his/hers/my GENES, I can't help it" (Bruce Liptons, Biology of Belief does a good number on dissolving this one, though we can have more fun sending it through the Stargate )

                              "<insert disease> is in my family, you know. My mother 'had' it, and her mother too, I'm so WORRIED"


                              Though I have immense compassion for anyone suffering under the numerous labels given the various things called 'disease'...in my view, these are not REAL, in the sense that we can step outside of that particular reality to another one it does not exist. This is the direction the increased awareness of consciousness is going, and a place where awakened people and Masters have been for thousands of years!

                              When you take these Memes out of context, don't they seem RIDICULOUS??? Btw, another great tool to use!!!

                              Tool Number Three:
                              In the style of Harry Potter, when faced with your conscious mind expressing a Meme, or in company of others saying them, or watching them on the media (news etc), simply Observe like in Tool #1 (this is extremely powerful and allows you, among other things, to 'step out' of the 'reality' where those particular Memes exist), and state with fun in your mind/voice, "RIDICULOUS!"

                              If you listen to the media as an Observer watching for the powerful messages that are NOT just words, but Memes of great power, that are sculpting our society, you will see that it is FILLED with them! I rarely ever watch news or certain other media shows for this reason. There are TOO MANY Memes for me to consistently step out of the reality of. SHEESH! This is in addition to the principle of what your heart dwells upon, you add to attracting into your life and into the world!

                              Love, light and Joy!
