tuned in； conscious； and loving。 They are not designed to help you
manipulate the people and things around you to make them fit your inside
addictions。 The Twelve Pathways will help you reprogram your mind so that
ALL of your addictions bee preferences and then you can live
peacefully。 The more you are uptight； the more important it is for you to stop
worrying about the outside condition that you feel “makes you upset。”
Instead； concentrate on the inner addictions or expectations with which you
hassle yourself。
The Twelve Pathways will show you what it means to be truly alive。 You will
look back to your present state of consciousness and realize that you have
been far more dead than alive。 Everything you need will e to you in a
seemingly miraculous fashion as you live with these Pathways。 The peace；
love； and effectiveness that you have always wanted will be yours。

Be aware at all times of which Center of Consciousness you are
experiencing。
You will discover that working on your consciousness is the most fulfilling
thing you can do in your life。 Whether you are driving a car； reading a book；
or even caught in an addictive argument with someone； you can always add to
the beauty of your outside drama if you are constantly aware of what Center
of Consciousness you are using。
Everything you do has aspects on all levels of consciousness。 We can enjoy
life on all levels and not just be hung up on the lower three Centers。 For
example； if you are making love； you can be aware of security aspects （the
Security Center）； or you can just enjoy the groovy feelings （the Sensation
Center）； or you can be conscious of the submission or control aspects （the
Power Center）。 You can be aware of love…making as an act of pure
acceptance of another and an experience of unconditional love （the Love
Center）。 The act of love…making is another manifestation of the way the
world offers you everything you need （the Cornucopia Center）。 Or you can
watch the entire drama from your Center of Centers （the Consciousawareness
Center）。
As you constantly uplevel the Center of Consciousness that you are
experiencing； you will find that each time you go up one Center of
Consciousness； you interact with more and more people。 You will also
liberate more and more energy。 For example； if you are totally preoccupied
with security； you will not have much energy for seeking sensations and
power。 And you cannot feel close to people when your consciousness is
concerned solely with your security。 On this level people are objects to be
manipulated。 You find increasing involvement with people and increasing
energy as you uplevel to the Sensation Center； the Power Center； and then to
the Love Center and the Cornucopia Center。 Each Center generates more
energy and lets you relate to more people than the previous Center。 Each
Center Opens the door to an increased enrichment of your life。
Your awareness of which Center of Consciousness you are experiencing and
your use of the Twelve Pathways to continually guide you are the Living Love
Way to meditate。 And you do this all the time in your busy life so that your
entire life bees meditation。 In the Living Love Way； meditation is not a
holy ritual to be performed once or twice a day。 It is a method for
consistently seeing things clearly and consciously here and now。
METHOD NO。 3
Bee more consciously conscious of the cause…effect relationship
between your addictions and the resulting unhappiness。
To tune in to the enormous effectiveness of the Living Love Way； it is
essential that you bee increasingly conscious of each of your addictions
and the way it generates a series of events that make you suffer。 It is
important that you notice how each addiction involves your ego and your
rational mind which； instead of letting go of the addiction； begins to churn
out a “rational” solution which triggers another round of problems in your
life。
Changes leading to happiness e most rapidly when you can fully engage
both your ego and rational mind （two of your most powerful faculties） in the
game of helping you eliminate each addiction。 Many addictions will rapidly
melt away as soon as you consciously experience that the suffering they cause
is actually due to the addiction。 Some of the deeper addictions that were
programmed into your bioputer with pain during the first two or three
years of your life require more inner work and more “living through” to fully
experience the extensive ramifications of the pattern of suffering they are
bringing into your life。 The key to the Third Method is to consciously
connect all of the suffering in your life with the addictive； emotion…backed
models and expectations that you keep telling yourself you must have to be
happy。
This Method is so basic and fundamental that it is difficult to overstate its
importance。 If you are extremely upset and you don’t remember the
Pathways； the Seven Centers of Consciousness； or any other Method； this
Third Method （that calls for pinpointing the addiction and connecting it with
the unhappiness and suffering in your life） should be able to help you bee
conscious again！ Resolve now that you will never again let your ego and
rational mind try to convince you that the outside world is doing it to you
that others are the cause of your suffering。 Whenever you lay the
responsibility for your emotional feelings on the people and things around
you； you perpetuate your entrapment in your security； sensation； and power
programming。 To break loose from these lower consciousness traps； you
must always take full responsibility for what you are experiencing and get to
work as quickly as possible on the addiction that causes you to reject
emotionally what people are doing or saying。
By taking full responsibility； you give your ego and rational mind an entirely
different direction in which to operate。 They begin to work on helping you to
reprogram instead of egging you on to manipulate and fight the people in your
life。 This changed direction of regard from the outside world to your own
inner programming is the key to benefiting from this unusually rapid Method
