Beaming In 
 
         This universe that we live in is an all-encompassing game, and the game was designed by the all-wise Creator.  Pointalism is the purest way to play that game, as a cosmic adventurer, gathering wisdom through our series of lives . 
 
          Each one of us is drawn to certain areas of development, just for him, in his growth and in what he is becoming in his journey through lifetimes.  Ultimately it 
depends on the Buddha-self of that individual, the eternal being who took birth in this world, being given a divine form by the Godhead. 
 
         Each soul lives thousands of lifetimes such as this human one.  Souls are of long duration, but finite.  Eventually they reach the end of the series, or fold, and the Buddhh-self resolves into Nirvana, the eternal dwelling-place of the quintillions of Buddha-selves. 
 
         Thousands of existences are had by the soul, but the Buddha-self of each soul can have thousands of souls in succession, each one having thousands of these existences 
such as the human being.  You might think of the souls of a Buddha-self as armies of action-figures on his bedroom floor. 
 
         Each of us must honour the purposes and intentions of his Buddha-self, and accept the lessons which are sent with a good, cheerful, obedient attitude.  Those purposes are partly determined by what has already been done, both in previous existences, and in previous souls.  What each Buddha-self is currently playing is unique to that Buddha-self. 
 
         There is altogether too much following going on on this planet.  The will grows by means of decisions and each of us needs to make his own decisions.  Carried far enough, 
copping out by casting yourself as someone else’s follower can even be sinful. 
 
         “Beaming in” is a much purer and realer concept than following, and it has very different rules.  You admire someone and are drawn to obey him, in a game which is about love, and not power. 
 
         There’s some way that he is which is more like the way that you think you should be.  So you begin taking discipline from him.  Maybe he spanks you.  As you more and more enter his reality, other figures begin to emerge from the gloom, that are also closer to the sought way of being than you are.  It is very likely that a figure emerge who is even closer to the way of being that you are pursuing -- even more the way you want to be. 
 
         So you cheerfully switch over and begin beaming in on him instead.  There is no loyalty, as there is with following.  It is assumed that fickle is the normal, natural way of being.  You are not considered the minion of your discipliner, as you would be if power were the criterion.
