They Offered Their Son Willingly—To Bethelite Brothers
by betterdaze inthey offered themselves willingly—in new yorkricky, a construction project manager in hawaii, was invited to serve as a commuter bethelite to assist with the warwick project.
his wife, kendra, wanted him to accept the invitation.
however, they had a legitimate concern: the welfare of their 11-year-old son, jacob.

There is a friend for everyone in the corporation's clutches so just say 'fuck you' to higher education kid and be a nice obedient drone or else! Is part of the message too they want to give. I mean if you combine this with latter shun DF'd people at all cost videos and public assembly talks.
I feel sorry for anyone who is just lapping up this bull shit propaganda indiscriminately to become even more mindless than they already are. Has got to be bad in so many ways as far wasted time and chasing elusive corporation inspired goals that will never come to fruition
Yes I have to agree the GB are getting more hard core desperate and shaking out the ranks and keeping only the most gullible on their ride to financial ruin due delusional/denial based mismanagement.

This Family has become drunk on corporation koolaid and believe 100% in duty to the Corporation above personal interest and well being. Shrunken brains for sure due to constant meeting attendance /indoctrination session to keep their faith alive fruitful to corporation interest.
They rate front page billing by the corporation for all brain washed drones to follow in their foots steps like nice little trusting lemmings.
I wonder when they will get thrown to the curb with all these lay offs and halted building projects? No longer needed and up shit's creek without a pot to piss in. Anyway they are in for some rough roads in the future putting their trust in a corporation run by psychopaths in denial and chuck full of shit.

The neuroscience understanding of the nondual state I think offers some ideas about enlightenment I know John Hopkins University is looking into this.

Jehovah's Limp Witnesses Pointed Me to JW.org When I Was Willing to Talk
by steve2 inseveral months ago i approached a nice young couple who were standing by a jw literature stand in my local community.
they were pleasant and polite but incredibly stilted when it came to answering my "innocent" questions about their beliefs.
this was the occasion of jws featuring the article headlined "is religion dying?".

I think they were just following instructions as mindless drones for the printing corporation.
I think this is a tactic that is Governing Body inspired. The GB don't want their people engaging in too much conversation with people who come to the carts unless the person shows some genuine interest in the publications and prospects of become a slave to the corporation. They are probably told just direct a person interest toward the web site to get information. This will keep their exposure to information the WT don't want JWs to hear down to a minimum.
The new corporation motto must be: let the publications and the WT website do the talking,, which in turn will make cart service easier and not expose the mindless drones to too much cognitive dissonance and possibly leave the grip of the organization or worse infect other mindless drones and a mass exodus occur in that area.

I tried meditation about 50 years ago to try probe my mind but since gave up around the age 17. But as a child of the 60s (born 1953 so 7 to 17) I did my share of psychedelics and wound up in the JWs at 19 under the spell of the WT programing formerly a Catholic.
My journey toward enlightenment was interrupted from 1971 to around 2000 a total of 29 years. My awakening from the coma inducing propaganda of the WT has caused me to resume my search and looking for the easiest way to follow my what seems to be an obsession of finding some type sense to what I am and what mind is which is quite natural since I live in it 24 hours a day (never ending journey).
Ego death is from what I gather shutting down the Default Mode Network ie no more sense of the self or us:
The Default Mode Network predominates the brain and from what I gather is the source of mental construction self and other(separation). What happens when it shuts down and one experiences oneness? Does a different reality emerge with a higher processing power of the brain a result with more neurons firing in different patterns(a good thing) while not under control of the restrictive DFN. Is that a moment of clarity full of insights?

Thanks Scratch,
I'm thinking self-realization has to do will realizing everything is the Self . It would have to be a very intuitive knowing as facts are not available to prove such things in my estimation.

No I tried it but I prefer the chemical route with perhaps some meditation to augment it. I'm mostly interested in neuroscience, and so quite naturally the brain and what happens to it with mystical experiences, and liberation from ego/default mode network.
End of all suffering seems possible through such practices depending on the effects that such experiences bring about in the way the brain processes information due to neuroplasticity brought on by such pratices.
