Doctor of Spiritual Science (DSS) graduate, Carole Nyitray, wrote a second Practical Treatise (PT) after already completing her first Practical Treatise towards graduation with the DSS degree in 2011.\u00a0 Here is her story of what prompted her to write her second PT.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Pray Tell \u2013 whatever possessed me to write a 2nd<\/sup> PT? Especially<\/u> when the 1st<\/sup> one was a struggle to get out of my head, put ink to pen and just write.<\/p>\n

Simply because \u2013 the second time around – \u201cIT\u201d was deeply and silently present<\/u> for me to discover, to ferret out, what was going on inwardly. \u2018IT\u2019 was something so far beyond the word level \u2013 \u2018IT\u2019 was a feeling sense of being \u201cpre-vocabulary.\u201d That\u2019s right \u201cpre-vocabulary\u201d (you have to feel and sense it) IT\u2019s there \u2013 and \u2013 you know It\u2019s there \u2013 except you can\u2019t quite put your finger or words on it \u2013 just yet. This \u201cIT\u201d is demandingly persistent. Sometimes \u2013 annoyingly so \u2013 it\u2019s like trying to swat a fly away \u2013 and it just keeps buzzing around and returning. UNTIL – you – focus inwardly and PAY ATTENTION to \u2018IT\u2019. And that is the key question and awareness \u2013 Exactly \u2013 <\/strong>Where – did I – place my ATTENTION!<\/strong> \u2013 \u2018That which is\u2019 has a message just for me. GOD IS CALLING \u2013 and \u2013 It is time to wake-up!<\/p>\n

So I started waking up to this \u201ccall from God from Spirit.\u201d This experience of writing a 2nd<\/sup> PT – was like having a personal private adventurous seminar, just for me, on horse-back with J-R. Once I started inwardly focusing and attuning into \u201cIT\u201d \u2013 J-R was ever so very present. Inwardly present. A felt-sensing of a gentle loving ocean breeze which shepherded me into a different unfamiliar energy field altogether. \u2018IT\u2019 quietly moved me into another realm in the stillness of silence. J-R just kept propelling me into this sphere of now-ness of Soul.<\/p>\n

No wonder at times it was so very difficult to put words onto IT. Because – I experienced going beyond the word level. What I began to slowly discover and wake up to is the realization that by going beneath the surface to the level of sensations and feelings, something begins to move, to percolate. Where \u2018That Which Is\u2019 – is perceptible \u2013 detectable \u2013 noticeable and observable all without words or labels. \u2018IT\u2019<\/strong>, the micro-phenomenology that was occurring inwardly was moving, shifting and proceeding me into the knowing \u2013 you know that you know. There \u2018IT\u2019<\/strong> was – in one fell swoop, all of the essential criteria to prove my hypothesis. I began to realize that I was on track and could do what I said I could do – If I do<\/strong> yada, yada, yada; \u2013 then will I experience<\/strong> yada, yada.\u00a0 I transcended into a transcendental, awe-inspiring state of consciousness \u2013 the movement \u2013 of \u2013 spiritual – inner – awareness. Amazingly, what I perceived to be in zero time, (like snapping a finger) there I was in the vortex of stillness of silence \u2013 where everything I was holding onto, I magically let go of – all of it – everything! The stillness of silence enveloped me \u2013 where I experienced, that true silence is a destination, a place of deep, abiding peace and tranquility where there is no past or future \u2013 IT \u2013 just – is. You just are.<\/p>\n

What I am grasping to put into words is that \u2013 this is an inner movement of consciousness \u2013 an aliveness that is transpiring, revealing and becoming obvious \u2013 \u2018IT\u2019 is revealing itself. An inner micro-phenomenology that is occurring. The inner self is awake and aware and is moving me inwardly into another energy field that is fluid \u2013 yet \u2013 in the outer world, I am physically sitting right here in a chair with feet planted on the floor.<\/p>\n

\u2018IT\u2019 \u2013 \u2018That Which Is\u2019 was precisely, totally and specifically present for me to capture, causing a pondering moment to stop – to look at \u2013 and – inwardly listened for how to put into language what was so for me in this moment of focused now-ness. The words came alive and were there for me to pluck out of the stillness of consciousness, like glowing neon lights, the very essences of \u201cthat which is\u201d came alive – thriving in me – as me. Which was joyfully uplifting and overflowing with the expansion of greater understanding and awareness happening in a blink of an eye.<\/p>\n

In closing – what I experienced over and over again and again in writing Stop, Look, Listen \u2013 then Focus \u2013 Claiming \u201cThat Which Is\u201d<\/em> \u2013 is – w<\/u>hat arises<\/u> \u2013 becomes<\/u> \u2013 and \u2018IT\u2019 is demandingly precise in claiming and communicating precisely \u201cThat Which Is.\u201d All there is \u2013 is \u2013 the ISNESS – of what is. And there you have it!<\/p>\n
