The dual nature of life and how to be happy

Duality is a fact in nature. There is no getting around it. The duality I am talking about will set you free from the delusion of materiality and therefore suffering. The Buddha was wrong when he said that "desire is the cause of all suffering". Not having desires is the cause of all suffering. The satisfaction of desires produces health and happiness and well being. What will make you truly happy? Isn't happiness what we are all seeking? Why not seek happiness directly? The duality that I am talking about is in the realm of spirit and ego. The ultimate positive-negative light-dark struggle. The struggle between happiness and unhappiness. The light must always win, the dark negative will always lose. Doesn't it make sense to go with the light and not be a loser? God is the ultimate good guy, in fact the word ego means 'Edge God Out', so by edging God out, you are being bad and therefore a loser, you are edging happiness out, edging health out and true joy that comes when you are the side of good. I should mention the things that are good/positive and bad/negative so you get a grip on what they are. Health is good, feeling good is good, so sickness is bad and feeling bad is bad. Nobody like to be sick and feel bad so it makes sense not to do those things that make you feel sick and bad and to do those things that enhance health and make you feel good. Any thing that feels good is making you healthier and anything that makes you feel bad is making you sicker. That is just how life works. There is nothing random or chaotic about life, it all follows the Perfect Laws of God; everything is in order. If your life is chaotic it is because YOU are chaotic, you have 'edged God out'. It is not by chance that ego spells 'Edge God Out', that was also designed by God as everything is. Chaos is bad, order is good. Chaos is of the ego, order is of God, it is good. We have perfect order in the whole of Life, nothing happens by chance. You are the controller of your destiny no one else is. So let us recap; Spirit/God is good and ego/evil is bad. They don't call it the negative ego for nothing. There is NO positive ego. Ego is bad full stop. If you are in ego you will feel bad. Spirit feels good. Spirit is healthy and ego is unhealthy. Religion is good and healthy and materialism is unhealthy and bad. This is all the dualistic nature of life, there is no judgment. Judgment is bad, discernment is good. Truth is good, lies are bad. This is not judgment, it is Truth. Allowing is good/healthy, manipulation is bad/sick. Personal/spiritual growth is good, stagnation and going backwards is bad. You must cooperate with evolution if you are to feel good. Life is positive and healthy, if you are really living it. If you are sick it is because you did something that wasn't in line with evolution. That is just how it works. If you are healthy it is because you did something good and in line with the purposes of life. We could sum up the purpose of life is to be happy, which means to be good and to be healthy and to be truly spiritual. Obviously if you are truly spiritual you will be healthy and feel good as well as do good for the betterment of all life. How do you do this? Only God can, so you must do as God wishes not as your ego dictates; you must become a pure channel through which God can work. You must become an empty vessel, you must cooperate with God/Life, which is the same thing. You need to work very hard at being healthy/good/spiritual but at the same time it is the easiest thing you can do. IT is challenging but rewarding. Think what it would feel like to be a truly good person, think what it feels like to be truly healthy, to truly cooperate with life and help your fellow man. If you help others you will feel good and be healthy; if you hurt others you will feel bad and be unhealthy, ie. sick. You cooperate with life when you try to be healthy, but you will feel bad if you step off the path. Your true feelings come from the Soul/Spirit... ego has an agenda all of its own and does not think of others. Spirit/Soul is truly impersonal, but it does not neglect any one part of life or any individual, it considers the needs of all. When you feel good you are considering the needs of all, this is how it works. You need to be constantly looking with in to find you true self/your Soul. Ego is everything that causes unhappiness in self or other. Can people be truly unhappy? You tell me... are you happy? when was the last time you felt truly happy? are you healthy? are you a good person? do you listen to Spirit or ego? Each moment you have a choice between Spirit or ego, happiness or unhappiness, health or sickness, good or evil. Remember, your feelings tell you if you are doing good or bad. IF you do not know what a feeling is, you need to take a good hard look at yourself. You are happy when you are healthy, sad when you are sick, happy when you tell the truth, sad when you lie, happy when you are positive, sad when you are negative, happy when you help someone, sad when you hurt someone. Doesn't it make sense to do that which makes you happy? You can't do that which makes you happy some of the time and sometimes do that which makes you sad at other times. You are either all good and healthy or all bad and sick. There is no other way. People's psychology needs to really change if we are to see a better life for all on earth and modern psychology just doesn't do it. It doesn't teach the things that I am now teaching and therefore is inadequate. Does modern psychology make people sad or happy? If it makes you sad it is no good, it is just making you sicker and more; a worse person. If you can be truly honest you will see that it makes you sad and therefore is ineffective and dangerous. Anything that makes you sad is dangerous, that is the epitome of danger. If it makes you happy it is safe. Let's talk about sex because that is a tiny microcosm of life. Just say you feel bad about a certain body part on a person, or you feel bad about a particular sex act with a particular person. If you go ahead and perform a sex act on that body part, or do the sex act that made you feel bad, you have done something dangerous to yourself, in other words it has caused you harm, ie. caused you injury. If you do this it will make you sad, not just momentarily but potentially forever. So you can see why it is not good to do, because you want to be happy, everyone does. I am not saying "if you want to be happy, you are not", but you want to be happy, forever, whether or not you are happy now. You can certainly want to STAY happy, but that is not the right way to think. Happiness comes when you get what you want and must be continuous in each moment, or you will not be happy. I think I've said enough. Peace.
