Psychotic Medication

If you asked Tom Cruise what he thinks about pharmaceutical intervention for mental illnesses, he'd jump up and down shouting the L. Ron Hubbard philosophy of any and all mental conditions being a result of earlier programming, good and bad. I read Hubbard's book, "Dianetics" in the 80s and found it to be very interesting and in alignment with the teachings of Royce Morales, Wayne Dyer, even Deepak Chopra. Basically, "garbage in, garbage out." I would agree, that in most cases, this is true.

Many energetic belief systems are in place due to programmed experiences and memories that are running in the unconscious mind and interfere with daily, present day, present moment, clarity. Those memories, experiences and beliefs run an interference pattern that obstructs our mental vision. It's like trying to get a clear picture on a 1950 television, with rabbit ears. For those of you born after 1970, you may have to look that up.

I remember those old televisions with rabbit ear antennas. Sometimes we'd have to hold them in a certain position or hang foil on them to get even the slightest fuzzy, static-filled, reception. Chucko the Clown would look like he was in a snowstorm if the antenna wasn't in the right position or if the weather outside was interfering. All of the static and interference distorted the picture so that you weren't quite certain what Chucko was doing with his balloons. If you think of all of the dis-empowering beliefs and memories being that static on your screen, you'll see where I'm headed here.

Compare that old static-filled screen with the crystal clear picture of a High Def, cable or satellite connection you can get today. Without all of that atmospheric interference you can see with absolute clarity. Some people can get clarity through processing out the old static-causing memories, beliefs, and energetic interferences with the help of a mentor, teacher, therapist or even a book or CD. There would not be any need for cable or satellites. But others may need the help of a cable patch. If you think of a cable connection being the medication for mental illness, the pharmaceutical patch, the chemical cable, you can see the need for intervention in many cases.

Not everyone can see the static for what it is. Some people get so used to the static that they don't know the difference or even think that there can be more pristine clarity. To them, Chucko is just fine in a snow storm. It may be that Chucko 'needs' to be in a snowstorm. It may be, to a patient with mental illness, that Chucko looks that way in reality and the clarity of High Def is all wrong.

If your television has been dropped and is damaged, even a cable patch can't help you. If your receiver lost a part, no satellite is going to make your picture clearer. But, if all your parts are working and in place, as is the case with most of us, then clearing out the static is all that is needed.

Now, here's the deal. I have a friend who stopped paying his cable bill, so to speak. The static has returned and he thinks that's the way is should be. He got tired of paying the bill, that is, he got tired of the side-effects of using a pharmaceutical patch for his bi-polar condition. His static could have been caused by a genetic condition. His mother couldn't stand the static she was getting so when her son was 17, she killed herself. His sister has so much static on her reception that she has used several pharmaceutical patches and seems to be stable. Her side effects don't seem to bother her. My friend, well, he has lost it. His static is so distorting reality that he has a restraining order against him. He has been banned from Hollywood Park and he has stalked a young woman who gave him an hour of her time and attention. Our friendship is coming to an end. He has said that I cannot be his friend if I am a friend of his wife's. His static is so loud and so fuzzy that there is no ability for clear communication.

Could he be helped with a mentor or a teacher who can process out the static? Would removing the static layers, one by one, or group by group, give him clarity? Could he have clarity without a cable patch? I think yes. But, and here's the big but...he would have to want to, and he doesn't. He said that he is happier than he has been in his life. He feels like he is a descended angel. His doctor would call this manic euphoria. I think it's part of the detox process.

Don't get me wrong. I totally believe there is a strong need for medical intervention for depression, bi-polar disorders, and psychosis of all varieties. However, I have to agree with L. Ron Hubbard. Garbage in, garbage out.

If my friend wanted to delete the static of emotional turmoil in his memory bank , I believe he can. It's all energy. All beliefs and memories are energy. Static energy. Even genetic conditions are shifted by the energy of our conscious attention. There is no condition that cannot be cleared with the conscious, energetic intention of our soul. We can have the clear, static-free reception without a cable, without a satellite, without pharmaceutical intervention. You have to want it.
