 RI-545i 'Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure - Part III'


from Ambassador for Mankind


Message # RI-545i for Internet



"The more incidents or times
  he is asked or invited to look at simultaneously,
   by one question asked by you,
  the more likely he is
   to get too much interiorized into the whole thing."

                       'Ambassador for Mankind'



In Part II,
 we had the confessant tell you about an act of his
  till he is himself satisfied
   that he has DESCRIBED it to you fully AS A NON-SURVIVAL ACT.

That was step two, the end-result of step two.


Now you might think
 that that was the end of the Confession
  of that non-survival act.

No, no.
 We got, that is, we found
  the non-survival act, now.
 That is just the START of the confessing.

Now we can get to work on it, you see,
 with step three and step four
  (as described in Part IV of the
    Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure).
And with work, I mean work!
 "Blood, sweat and tears"-type of work
   for the confessant (who confesses),
  and a LOT of patience and insistence
   from the confessor (who hears the Confession).


But before we have that fun,
 we still might have to do
  the Preliminary to [coming before] step three,
    which we call "step three Preliminary", or "step three P".



Step 3.P "IF THIS IS NOT ONE PARTICULAR TIME OR ONE PARTICULAR INCIDENT,
          THEN TELL ME THE ONE TIME OR THE ONE INCIDENT
          THAT YOU ARE NOW MOST INTERESTED IN CONFESSING ABOUT."



There is a very important reason for this "step three Preliminary",
 (or "step three P").

On step two
 - where the confessant describes the non-survival act to you
    till he is satisfied with the description being
     the description of a non-survival act -
 you easily end with a statement
   - like, as an example:
      "Not studying things I am interested in" -
  which describes MORE than one time, MORE than one incident.

But in step three and step four,
 you will ask him questions of the type of
     "What did others know about IT?"
  (that's not the question asked on step three or step four,
    it's just to illustrate this point here,
      without putting your attention on
       the actual step three and step four questions, yet).


If you ask that question of the confessant,
 like "What did others know about IT?",
   he will have to scan several or all of the times
    when he 'did not study things he was interested in',
     in order to give you a well-considered answer.

This, though it can be done,
 is unnecessarily hard
  on both the confessant and on you, as confessor, and
 it leaves many of those times
  'of not studying things he was interested in'
    touched upon but not fully looked at, and
 it leaves the confessant, at each question asked about IT,
  puzzling
   WHICH of those times (when he was
      'not studying things he was interested in')
    he should pick out or look at first, and
   how many of these he should look at, and so on.

Do you get the point?

The more incidents or times
 he is asked or invited to look at simultaneously,
  by one question asked by you,
 the more likely he is
  to get too much interiorized into the whole thing.


And because
 ONE non-survival act
  has ALREADY a lot of confusion in it, and
   you want to REDUCE the confusion,
 you do step three Preliminary (step three P),
  so that you only have ONE time or ONE INCIDENT
   for the confessant to bite his teeth into and digest.


It is already "blood, sweat and tears",
 to really look at the confusion of ONE non-survival act.

So you don't overdo it,
 and with step three P. you make sure
  that you get ONE INCIDENT, ONE TIME,
    - which, hopefully,
       is the most significant time anyway,
       or the one which, when looked at,
        does the confessant most good.


Again, as in step one,
 we DON'T GO FOR THE MOST DRAMATIC
  OR MOST SPECTACULAR NON-SURVIVAL ACT.
 That time might be not at all the most CONFUSED time.


I myself had most remarkable gains
 on a very simple incident of kissing a girl.

Nothing dramatic, nothing immoral,
 we knew each other for quite some time,
 and on my birthday-party we exchanged the first kiss
  and this was seen, and acclaimed, by everyone
   and she became my fiancee after that.

Nothing at all could be wrong, you see.

But there WAS something wrong!

Due to the nature and intentions of this girl,
  - who was a virgin and upperclass and beautiful-looking and
    without ills as far as social acceptability is concerned
     (she studied French at the University) -
 she was rather fixated on beauty of the body, and
 she very much confused
  "getting Affinity from me" with "being kissed".

So, on the surface it was just a kiss,
 but the non-survival act was
   letting myself be interiorized into bodies,
     due to the intentions and character of this girl,
      the being who was this girl.

And I took a Confession on this, on this particular incident,
  with step three and step four (as described in Part IV).
 What do you know!
 At the end of step four, the end of the Confession,
  I was stably, radiantly exterior from
   and in full command of my body.


I am telling you this to show you
 that you don't reject or leave out
  the unseeming things
   which the confessant gives you
    as what HE is interested in to confess.



Step 3.Preliminary:
        "IF THIS IS NOT ONE PARTICULAR TIME OR ONE PARTICULAR INCIDENT,
         THEN TELL ME THE ONE TIME OR THE ONE INCIDENT
         THAT YOU ARE NOW MOST INTERESTED IN CONFESSING ABOUT."



And once again,
 we have used up the space of this Bulletin
  without getting to step three and step four,
   of the correct and joyful Confessional procedure!

For these, you will have to wait till part IV.
 [And for which you (and those who urged me to write it)
   did wait till 14 June 1997.]
