Henry James, OM (15 April 1843 – 28 February 1916) was an American-born British writer. He is regarded as one of the key figures of 19th-century literary realism.
His secretary remarked in her monograph Henry James at Work: ‘When he walked out of the refuge of his study and into the world and looked around him, he saw a place of torment, where creatures of prey perpetually thrust their claws into the quivering flesh of doomed, defenseless children of light … His novels are a repeated exposure of this wickedness, a reiterated and passionate plea for the fullest freedom of development, unimperiled by reckless and barbarous stupidity.”

“A human being is the literal embodiment of mortality. The flesh is a prison for the Being. The Earth is a prison for the body: a prison within a prison for a Soul, carefully concealed in Mystery. An object animated by a Soul that thinks that it is the object is the ultimate accomplishment of the trade and technology of The Mortality Mechanic.”

Bios UrnThe Bios Urn project reintroduces the human being to the natural circle of life. It is the profaine ritual of regeneration and the return to nature. Bios is a mortuary urn made from biodegradable materials: coconut shell, compacted peat and cellulose. Inside it contains the seed of a tree. Once the urn is planted, the seed germinates and begins to grow. The seed can be changed for a different type of seed or plant more adequate to the chosen planting place, if need be.

The entire history of humans on Earth is an unending cycle of birth within a biological body, a short lifetime of pain, intermittent pleasure, chaos, death and rebirth. So far as I know there has been few, if any, how have escaped this cycle. Many spiritual teachers and pretenders have claimed to have discovered “the way” to spiritual emancipation from this cycle. Religion organizations uniformly claim that their “group” are the “only ones” who know “the way”.
However, every Is-Be is completely unique. (Is-Be = Immortal Spiritual Being, or Sentient Being) No two are the same. Each one has a 1,000 small variables which identify them uniquely, like a thumbprint.
The “Golden Rule” is a philosophy and practice of kindness toward others and toward ourselves. It is empathy…. being able and willing to “be” another being, to see through their eyes, to feel the feelings they experience. This is understanding. Every great guru describes a similar idea.
There is not enough pleasure or kindness on Earth to counter-balance all of the psychotic beings in this universe who play “duality games” of good / evil. Such beings do not experience ANY empathy. They cannot perceive the energy frequency of another Is-Be, except to control it or destroy it!
Empathy is the opposite of duality. Empathy is Oneness. It is Being and experiencing AS All. Empathy is a state of being in which there is no duality games, because there is no opponent, no enemy. Only Being. Everyone plays together and accomplish a common goal or purpose that is mutually beneficial to all. Everyone “wins”.
I do not think there is any group of Is-Bes in the physical universe that can play a game and also be truly empathetic. There is no benevolent leader or ruler or army or organization in this universe. This universe is made of opposites: positive / negative energy. If you remove one side or the other the entire universe will collapse and there is no longer a game to play or a universe to play it in!
Apparently, there is not proven “therapy” or “technique” that can be applied to a group of Is-Bes to trap them, or to free them of mental or spiritual enslavement. However, there may be a way “out” of imprisonment for an individual from the chaos and psychotic duality of the “Game of Earth”. Empathy. Be all, and every, and each, as yourself.
