module six
Apply a Strong Self to Your Social Reality
Heal where you can’t touch,
...the machinations of the mind
apply it to you
see it in others
Take it forward
In this module, you will learn how to engage another person by looking at what drives them and what fears or concerns impede them. Meanwhile, you will also build your own flexibility to work with their limitations even though they do not see them or may believe that they are functioning within their rights. It prepares you with the ability to place the other person at ease while looking at, not the faults and failures, but the blanks that need to be filled and how to fill them productively. This gives hope and, with that, the energy and desire to discover self (self-realization).
Now that you have examined the machinations of the human mind, you are ready to do what was proposed in the first module – look where you can’t see, that is, apply it not only to you but to how you relate to others. You will learn that you can see that aspect of the human experience only when the person chooses to reveal it, and in the same way, they can only see what you choose to reveal.
The good part is that every human being wants to reveal what they think. We are only hampered by the clutter of feelings and actions, and by the uncertainty that what we really have to reveal may be considered insufficient or undesirable. You must know how to help others bypass those concerns honestly and intelligently just as you have learned to do so for yourself in the past two modules. This module is really about relating so you can both make the common elements of a relationship congenial and help the other to meet you at a higher common ground.
We will show you how to build the trust quickly so you can go about the more important work of empowering the person to expand and appreciate those resources and attitudes. You must, however, be able to distract them from the clutter of feelings and behaviors and help them focus on the art of self-realization and self-actualization. New behaviors will become logic driven rather than reaction-based. In other words, they will start to change an old behaviour or mood, not by fixing them directly, but by building the opposite attitude and action.

Unlocking Moods and Behaviours
It might very well be that when we fail to solve the puzzles of life, they remain with us. We have to do them sooner or later; and it seems reasonable to suppose that the problems of life ought to be solved during life, while we have to our hands the apparatus in which they arose. We might find that after death the problems were unaltered, but that we were impotent to deal with them. Aleister Crowley, Diary of a drug fiend

Being a Good Leader
What is the responsibility of the person in a leadership position? Is it to show courage in adversity? Is it to motivate or encourage others to do their best? Or is it to have the role of advisor, guide, or coach taking others through their paces to become a mature contributor to their community? No matter what your definition or aspirations may be, there are two conditions you must be prepared to manage beyond those where you are well trained or experienced. These conditions are evoked by the natural tendency of everything to be susceptible to change, influenced by forces that are invisible, often unpredictable, and continuously active. These forces do not only infect the conditions you are required to manage. They form the conditions.
Communicating in a Marriage or Family Unit
The need to communicate effectively in a marriage or family unit is perhaps one of the most challenging responsibilities we must face today. It is a responsibility because a relationship is the most dynamic area of life, dynamism that is based on the hidden, individual thoughts, desires and feelings of the people involved. People think constantly. Their thoughts are generated in directions that are influenced by past experiences, present perceptions and personal feelings. In today`s complex social, economic and mechanical world, no one`s total past experience equals anyone else`s.

Embracing your Experience
Wow! You are doing well! You have now completed the whole series of lessons. I hope that you see yourself and your world differently and that you have developed a firm sense of purpose, that life is more than just living. It is about growing, discovering ourselves and building ourselves to be the best we can be. We will leave this world and it will challenge others. It is our hope that, like you, these others will discover their personal purpose. You see? Though you felt compromised at first and that you thought you needed the wisdom of another to help you through, you have discovered that it is your wisdom that will get you going.
Wow. What a wise and clever trick this life is proving to be. It is our hope that you will continue to grow in wisdom and insight so you can infect others with the same desire for self growth and self realization. Keep this website handy.
