2。　Basic　Principle。　Happiness　varies　inversely　with　one’s　addictions。
Addictions　are　programmed　expectations；　demands；　“absolute　necessities；”
desires；　or　models　of　how　the　world　should　be　that　automatically　trigger
negative　emotions　such　as　anger；　fear；　jealousy；　anxiety；　irritation；　resentment；
grief；　etc。　Every　addiction　makes　one　vulnerable　to　suffering。　When　one
understands　how　the　experience　of　happiness　and　unhappiness　is　generated；　it
bees　evident　that　all　unhappiness　is　due　to　addictive　models　that
determine　our　perception　and　motivation。　Even　physical　pain　does　not
produce　unhappiness　unless　one　has　an　addiction　for　being　free　from　pain。　It
is　the　addiction；　not　the　pain；　that　generates　suffering。
3。　The　Predicament　of　Life。　The　changing　energy　stream　of　life　in　which
we　live　satisfies　some　addictions　and　leaves　others　unsatisfied。　In　other
words；　we　win　some　and　we　lose　some。　Even　when　we　win；　we　then
unwittingly　create　another　addictive　demand　that　must　be　lived　out　in　a　robotlike
fashion。　We　usually　attempt　to　change　our　win…lose　odds　by　more
money；　knowledge；　prestige；　or　power。　These　lines　of　endeavor　never　make
enough　change　in　the　“win…some；　lose…some”　pattern　to　produce　a　high　level
enjoyment　of　life。　Our　expectations　and　demands　continue　to　dominate　our
consciousness　and　create　an　unsatisfactory　experience　of　life　as　long　as　we
have　any　addictive　programming。
4。　A　Dilemma。　Unsatisfied　addictions　dominate　our　consciousness；　make　us
unable　to　love　unconditionally；　keep　our　rational　minds　churning；　lead　our
consciousness　into　“futuring　and　pasting”　instead　of　enjoying　the　here　and
now；　and　make　us　trigger　negative　emotions　in　an　attempt　to　manipulate　the
people　in　the　world　around　us。　the　unfulfilled　addictive　demands　produce　the
experience　of　suffering　and　unhappiness。　The　addictions　we　satisfy　give　us
only　brief　pleasure。　That　which　satisfied　an　addiction　soon　tends　to　form　a
new　addiction　that　our　nervous　system　indiscrimately　protects　and　enhances。
Regardless　of　whether　or　not　we　get　what　we　want；　we　are　still　vulnearable　to
fear；　grief；　or　anger　that　can　generate　the　experience　of　unhappiness。
5。　The　Unworkable　Solution。　Our　ancestors；　throughout　eons　of　jungle　life；
developed　nervous　systems　that　effectively　guarded　our　species　against
external　dangers。　Over　99％　of　the　people　in　the　world　today　are　stuck　with
nervous　systems　that　usually　operate　by　blaming　the　outside　world　for　any
problems　they　experience。　We　organize　our　perceptions　and　energies　into
trying　to　make　our　lives　work　by　programming　that　is　ultra　efficient　at
paring　the　outside　world　with　our　inner　addictive　models　　thus
triggering　emergency　alarms　of　anger；　fear；　grief；　frustration；　or　jealousy　when
they　do　not　correspond。　When　we　operate　on　lower　consciousness　levels；　we
trigger　emotions　that　generate　forceful　actions　in　an　attempt　to　change　the
outside　world　so　that　it　corresponds　with　our　security；　sensation；　and　power
addictions。　The　result　is　a　roller…coasting　between　pleasure　and　pain　（which
we　try　to　ameliorate　by　increasing　our　skill　at　manipulation）　meanwhile
maintaining　a　social　veneer　of　politeness；　diplomacy；　and　a　shallow　degree　of
warmth　and　love。　Conscious　people　always　have　a　choice　of　whether　to　try
to　modify　the　actions　of　people　around　them　or　to　change　their　responses　to
the　ining　stimuli。
6。　The　Way　To　Happiness。　The　practical　solution　to　the　problem　of
continuously　enjoying　our　lives　is　to　re…train　our　bioputers　so　that　the　first
response　to　a　life　situation　is　to　harmonize　our　energies　with　the　outside　world
instead　of　trying　to　force　the　outside　world　to　fit　our　inner　patterns。
Unconditionally　loving　munication　（which　is　not　addicted　to　results）　will
usually　permit　the　adjustments　to　occur　that　we　need　for　harmonizing　our
energies。　Every　addiction　leaves　us　vulnerable；　preferences　enable　us　to
continually　enjoy　life。　when　our　bioputers　operate　from　preferential
programming；　our　happiness　is　not　affected　　regardless　of　whether　the
outside　world　fits　our　preferences　or　not。　This　permits　us　to　enjoy　the　here
and　now　of　our　lives；　to　remain　centered　at　all　times；　to　love　unconditionally；
to　avoid　subject…object　manipulation；　to　feel　secure　and　invulnerable；　to
increase　our　insight　and　perceptiveness；　and　to　feel　at　home　in　the　world。
When　our　bioputers　are　retrained　to　interact　with　our　world　in　these
ways；　we　find　that　life　gives　us　the　optimum　in　security；　sensations；　power；
and　love。　The　Living　Love　Way　does　far　more　than　enable　a　person　to
passively　adjust　to　the　here　and　now　of　his　or　her　life；　it　is　a　dynamic　system
for　retraining　one’s　consciousness　to　live　an　effective　life　that　is　continuously
enjoyable。
Appendix　2
Summary　…　The　Five　Parts　of　Living　Love
THE　LAW　OF　HIGHER　CONSCIOUSNESS：
Love　Everyone　Unconditionally　　Including　Yourself。
THE　FIVE　METHODS　PLUS　THE　INSTANT　CONSCIOUSNESS
DOUBLER：
1。　Memorize　the　Twelve　Pathways　and　apply　them　to　your　problems。
2。　Be　aware　at　all　times　of　which　Center　of　Consciousness　you　are
using　to　perceive　your　world。
3。　Bee　more　consciously　conscious　of　the　cause…effect　relationship
between　your　addictions　and　the　resulting　unhappiness。
4。　Use　the　Catalyst　ALL　WAYS　US　LIVING　LOVE　as　a　tool　for
cognitive　centering。
5。　Use　the　Consciousness　Focusing　Method　to　accelerate　the
reprogramming　of　heavy　addictions。
plus　the　INSTANT　CONSCIOUSNESS　DOUBLER：
Expand　your　love；　your　consciousness；　and　your　loving　passion　by
experiencing
everything　that　everyone　does　or　says　as　though　you　had　done　or　said
it。
THE　TWELVE　PATHWAYS：
Freeing　Myself
1。　I　am　freeing　myself　from　security；　sensation；　and　power　addictions
that　make　me　try　to　forcefully　control　situations　in　my　life；　and　thus
destroy　my　serenity　and　keep　me　from　loving　myself　and　others。
2。　I　am　discovering　how　my　consciousness…dominating　addictions
create　my　illusory　version　of　the　changing　world　of　people　and
situations　around　me。
3。　I　wele　the　opportunity　（even　if　painful）　that　my　minute…tominute
experience　offers　me　to　bee　aware　of　the　addictions　I　must
reprogram　to　be　liberated　from　my　robot…like　emotional　patterns。
Being　Here　Now
4。　I　always　remember　that　I　have　everything　I　need　to　enjoy　my　here
and　now　　unless　I　am　letting　my　consciousness　be　dominated　by
demands　and　expectations　based　on　the　dead　past　or　the　imagined
future。
5。　I　take　full　responsibility　here　and　now　for　everything　I　experience；
for　it　is　my　own　programming　that　creates　my　actions　and　also
influences　the　reactions　of　people　around　me。
6。　I　accept　myself　pletely　here　and　now　and　consciously
experience　everything　I　feel；　think；　say；　and　do　（including　my　emotionbacked
addictions）　as　a　necessary　part　of　my　growth　into　higher
consciousness。
Interacting　with　Others
7。　I　open　myself　genuinely　to　all　people　by　being　willing　to　fully
municate　my　deepest　feelings；　since　hiding　in　any　degree　keeps　me
stuck　in　my　illusion　of　separateness　from　other　people。
8。　I　feel　with　loving　passion　the　problems　of　others　without　getting
caught　up　emotionally　in　their　predicaments　that　are　offering　them
messages　they　need　for　their　growth。
9。　I　act　freely　when　I　am　tuned　in；　centered；　and　loving；　but　if　possible
I　avoid　acting　when　I　am　emotionally　upset　and　depriving　myself　of　the
wisdom　that　flows　from　love　and　expanded　consciousness。
Discovering　my　Conscious…Awareness
10。　I　am　continually　calming　the　restless　scanning　of　my　rational　mind
in　order　to　perceive　the　finer　energies　that　enable　me　to　unitively　merge
with　everything　around　me。
11。　I　am　constantly　aware　of　which　of　the　Seven　Centers　of
Consciousness　I　am　using；　and　I　feel　my　energy；　perceptiveness；　love；
and　inner　peace　growing　as　I　open　all　of　the　Centers　of　Consciousness。
12。　I　am　perceiving　everyone；　including　myself；　as　an　awakening　being
who　is　here　to　claim　his　or　her　birthright　to　the　higher　consciousness
planes　of　unconditional　love　and　oneness。
THE　SCALE　FOR　KNOWING　YOUR　CENTER　OF　CONSCIOUSNESS
AT　EACH　MOMENT：
The　Seven　Centers　of　Consciousness：
1。　The　Security　Center
2。　The　Sensation　Center
3。　The　Power　Center
4。　The　Love　Center
5。　The　Cornucopia　Center
6。　The　Conscious…awareness　Center
7。　The　Cosmic　Consciousness　Center
THE　PURPOSE　OF　OUR　LIVES：
The　purpose　of　our　lives　is　to　be　free　of　all　addictive　traps；　and　thus
bee　One　with　the　Ocean　of　Living　Love。
Appendix　3
How　To　Accelerate　Your　Growth　in　the　Living　Love　Way
Here　are　eight　ways　in　which　you　can　enormously　accelerate　your　growth
toward　higher　consciousness：
1。　Reread　This　Book。　On　your　first　reading　you　will　begin　to　develop　an
intellectual　understanding。　This　is　only　a　first　step　toward　illuminating　your
life　with　the　Living　Love　Way。　To　bring　the　words　and　ideas　of　the　book　into
your　moment…to…moment　consciousness；　repeated　readings　are　absolutely
necessary。　If　you　wish　to　grow　at　the　fastest　rate；　read　at　least　five　pages　of
this　book　every　night　just　before　going　to　sleep。　If　you　do　this　constantly；　you
will　be　giving　yourself　a　maximum　opportunity　to　liberate　the　hidden　splendor
within　you。
2。　Underline　Freely。　Underline　every　sentence　in　the　book　that　is　especially
significant　to　you。　These　will　be　the　parts　that　you　are　now　ready　to　receive
in　your　here…and…now　stream　of　consciousness。　This　prepares　you　for　your
next　step　in　opening　toward　a　deeper　acceptance　and　application　of　the　Living
Love　Way　in　your　daily　life。　And　gradually　more　and　more　of　the　book　will
be　underlined　as　a　sign　of　your　growing　integration。
3。　Give　Yourself　the　Benefit　of　All　Five　Methods。　Let　all　of　the　Five　Methods
help　you　in　your　growth。　If　you　find　that　you　are　not　using　one　of　the
Methods；　concentrate　on　that　Method　during　the　next　month。　To　avoid
imbalance　and　lopsidedness；　you　should　use　all　of　the　Five　Methods。
4。　Avoid　a　Spiritual　Soup。　When　you　find　your　spiritual　path；　put　your　full
energy　into　perfecting　your　practice　of　the　methods　associated　with　your
chosen　path。　If　you　constantly　shop　around；　pare；　and　experiment　with
different　binations　from　various　spiritual　paths；　you　may　fail　to　get　the
benefit　in　depth　that　would　be　found　by　intensely　devoting　yourself　to　a　single
path。
5。　Surrender。　Your　spiritual　growth　will　be　directly　correlated　with　the
degree　to　which　you　surrender　to　the　methods　of　your　chosen　path。　And　just
what　are　you　really　surrendering？　You　are　only　surrendering　the　low…level
programming　that　now　keeps　you　disappointed；　upset；　and　unhappy　in
varying　degrees。
6。　Intensity　of　Desire　For　Growth。　Your　plete　inner　dedication　to　your
growth　into　higher　consciousness　is　the　single　most　important　determinant　of
your　spiritual　development。　Without　an　intense　inner　mitment；　you　are
just　a　dilettante　playing　spiritual　games。　When　spiritual　growth　is　the　most
important　thing　in　your　life；　the　full　miracle　of　love　and　oneness　will　unfold　in
your　life。
7。　Offer　the　Living　Love　Way　to　Others。　Remember　that　your　life　works
better　when　you　are　surrounded　by　loving；　fulfilled；　happy　beings。　You　will
grow　when　you　offer　the　system　to　others　　but　always　wait　until　they　clearly
indicate　an　openness　to　receive　your　gift　of　explaining　how　consciousness
growth　works。　You　must　be　very　perceptive　in
