"Only God can judge me, so I'm gone — either love me or leave me alone." — Shawn Corey Carter (Jay-Z), b. 1969, American Rapper & Cultural Icon
Human excellence is not an accident of fate nor a prerogative of noble birth — it is an art that can be taught and eternally learned. Building and thriving within your Psychic Palace demands the combating of every militating force that poisons the climate of your LIFE. This is the path of BEYONDISM: provoking one to access the greater portion of one's personal resources, stimulating growth in psychic and emotional fitness, and breaking free of every prison-house that closes upon the growing individual.
Intimately Irrigate Your Hallowed Hope — SUMMARY Acrostic
Progress in our African society will only rise upon the heels of liberated and self-actualised individuals who dare to forge their own paths.
Real changes will only be achieved through personal self-commitment in undetermined free choice — no one can make this journey for you.
Experiment and adventure is what will break psychic inertia and kindle a burning thirst for novel ideas and unexplored territories of the mind.
Provoke positive percepts by changing and controlling yourself — you cannot change or control events, only your sacred response to them.
Aspire to forge a new identity that extends the boundaries assigned by a rigid and suffocating society — you are vaster than their definitions.
Reason is the one core strength you possess, and it alone could save you from confusion, decay and the seduction of intellectual surrender.
Entrench the belief that labour and industry in all aspects of LIFE is your prima facie duty — a covenant of honour between you and the Divine.
Revel in the beauty arising from wrestling with all your illusions and eventually vanquishing them — every conquered ghost enlarges your palace.
Entertain a long-term vision and a readiness to postpone immediate profits for a future of far greater gain — patience is a form of genius.
Accumulation of wealth is gradual, and so is the fashioning of a progressive civilisation — each sacred brick laid with intention endures.
Lively, zealous spiritual devotion to work when summoned will drive you towards unsuspected and glorious ends you cannot yet perceive.
Inculcate in yourself a sense of energy, acquisitiveness, discipline, enterprise, diligence and thrift — these seven virtues are your armour.
Seek sustained effort, willingness to mobilise savings, to take sacred risks, and the propensity for innovation as a way of living and being.
Essentially it is not where you are or what you have, but where you are going and the speed and devotion with which you move forward.
Every dream is not born of laziness — it is the seedling of ambition planted by God. Awake, arise, and be assertive in cultivating it daily.
Making LIFE choices is a must — it is a divine duty. But the most crucial aspect of all choice is choosing in time, not after the moment passes.
People with greater certainty about their emotions are better pilots of their lives. Emotional clarity is the master key — the royal road to success.
Of success: Intelligence Quotient (IQ) accounts for about 20%; a full 80% is determined by Emotional Intelligence (EQ) — know thyself deeply.
Work out new modalities that shall be in accord with the changed conditions of your unique LIFE — there is no universal map, only your own terrain.
Existence precedes essence — there is no explaining things away by reference to a fixed human nature. You are always becoming, never merely being.
Reason informs us: God knows the options open to us in our freedom, but not the decision we will make — the sacred choice is always yours alone.
Mechanisms beyond your control may influence your fate, yet your sacred choices always carry consequences — responsibility cannot be outsourced.
The essence of emotional self-regulation is the ability to delay and resist an impulse in the service of a higher goal — the hallmark of the master builder.
Devising realistic ways of looking at and dealing with natural and social phenomena is not optional — it is your fundamental sacred DUTY.
Impatience and self-indulgence — taking the easy way out — will wreck your LIFE on the merciless rock of indolence. Discipline is the guardian angel.
All that you become is your own responsibility — either you make yourself or, in a very real sense, you permit others to make you according to their design.
Trespass into your LIFE by others, moulding you according to their ideals and not your own divine spark — this is the original sin against the self.
Energy plus talent makes you a conqueror; talent minus energy leaves you like flavourless salt — luminous in form but without power to preserve or heal.
Infusing upon yourself the sacred gift of Perseverance is the lever upon which you will grow healthy, wealthy and inwardly luminous.
Negating destiny leads to superstition or projecting it onto others — perceiving them as wholly evil while you remain blind to your own role and power.
Denial of destiny amplifies feelings of powerlessness, opening the door to scapegoating and blame-shifting — traps that imprison the sway-prone soul.
The Urge of LIFE — the dynamic WILL — is the cause and the goal of all action, whether instinctive or conscious. Honour it. Serve it. Obey its highest call.
Live by continually magnifying your inner shine — you will have fewer dips, more peaks, and greater balance as your Psychic Palace rises higher.
Guard from escaping your consideration the finding of MEANING in all you do and experience — for a life of meaning is the Psychic Palace fully inhabited.
Earth moves at a different speed depending on WHO you are, WHAT you want in LIFE, and WHY you want it — alignment of all three is your holy grail.
Under no circumstance should you allow frustrations and despondency to creep into your innards — they are the termites of the Psychic Palace.
The very heavens seek to arouse a human being's core determination to be free from any limitation — the cosmos conspires for your liberation.
The inscription at one's birth is not that one is a puppet of one's past — its message is a divine PROD TO PRIDE. Read it again with wiser eyes.
LIFE force, at its most intensive and extensive manifestation, is the very principle and fount of all morality, all beauty, all authentic civilisation.
Immerse yourself in the creative challenge of the present moment — it is NOW when LIFE is most blissful, most potent, most sacred and most real.
Spontaneity and flexibility enable you to adjust adequately to all changes and to seek NEW challenges with the joy of a free and sovereign spirit.
Endeavour to direct your entire PSYCHE to the service and manifestation of JOYFUL affirmation of LIFE — this is the highest Beyondist calling.
Meaninglessness in LIFE is a condition you MUST abhor at all cost — succumbing to it is virtual death, a slow dismantling of the Psychic Palace.
Override all manacles, break all chains of psychic slavery, and be free to grow, flourish and self-actualise without apology or hesitation.
Nature is an infinitely generous COW from which you must MILK your MEANING — depending on the depth of your need and the boldness of your reach.
In moving the direction of BEYONDISM, question all obsolete beliefs and check on all inconsistent values — sacred iconoclasm is a spiritual act.
To be at pace with existence you must be willing and ready to make all necessary adjustments in LIFE — rigidity is the enemy of the living palace.
Obeying GOD will enable you to work through every hurdle, thereby bettering and strengthening yourself in ways the ego alone could never accomplish.
Regard with greatest contempt the mechanical responding to others — if you truly assent to the will-to-live, your response must always be sovereign.
Summon a sacred affirmation from the depths of the Psychic Palace. Each revelation is a celestial message — receive it with an open heart.
Click each sacred vow to seal it within your Psychic Palace. Watch your Conviction rise.
