Because it’s not properly taught. You have to realize that in the spiritual space there’s a lot of teachers, tutors, etc who maybe have some unique insights to share and their own spirituality that is unique to them but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s a solid teaching. Mindfulness and meditation doesn’t have to mean just shutting off the mind and shutting down in general. It’s an incomplete and poor teaching. There are vibrant meditations which are about focusing your mind, attuning yourself and raising your sensitivity. Freeing yourself and LIVING. You lovingly quiet the childish inner voice that’s always yapping and probably has a lot of limiting beliefs attached to it. Then with this intention that is set for experiencing creativity, creativity will come. I would flip it. It’s not about trying to sit and be creative. I would ask what’s in the way of you naturally being creative, since the vibrant and abundant creative state is your true and natural state. Anything less than abundant joy that sees possibilities in everything and beauty in all is some belief in the way blocking this from flowing to you effortlessly with no heavy sense of control or doership to it. It feels spontaneous and alive, the true Self. I’ve been there, those meditating into an empty hole teachers. Honestly they suck. They aren’t pursuing an awakening that pairs well with real life and are sharing a poor teaching.

Hell is good. Being good is bad. -

It's tradition:

I don't always read all comments no, I skim through some, but do not always find it relevant to read everyone's comments, especially lengthy ones that can be explained in less words and easier digested. Not to dismiss you or your words, rather felt-need to apply my own touch. Some say a lot and explain a little, some say a little and explain a lot, some simply land better, some not at all, there are no right or wrongs. I feel its important to share our own unique expressions even if someone may have shared it previously in their own way, because there could be something in ones unique expression that hits or touches deeper and vice versa. We are all expressions of the divine and all comments / words are valid.

The way I see it, is you practice formal meditation in order to get to the point where you're essentially meditating all the time -- even while doing the activities that we all must do to survive. And, actually, mindulness creates more insights, because by essentially allowing your mind to be bored, insights come about. Boredom is one of the best states of consciousness to experience and dwell in.

@SimpleGuy It is okay to set aside time to be empty, and its okay to set aside time to think about something.
-
@SimpleGuy If your creativity comes from emptiness and stillness, would it then, be more original? How do you term the quality of your creativity? By how it is received by others? By your status in relationship to it? By what you gain with it? By how you feel about it? Or the process of being creative itself? Or some other motivation? Fear, doubt... this is a result of thinking.

Aversion to death "Thoughts" Identity, period, not specific identities, just identity

Oh... Well. I think there are more contexts for it - especially within physics & reality. Forces are the largest domain I can think of just right off the bat. Some of the structures of society that assist it to operate - humanity as a collective - to sustain, feed, power all of us? Requires conformity. Different domain I know. And many of these domains are free of group think, but exist within the survival paradigm

The kind of trips I experience now, in the past, would’ve sent me straight to the hospital due to how intense they are . The difference now is that they’re intense, but in the best way possible. I’m losing my mind and entering into Alien Intelligrnce, without denying it anymore. Also, I am able to access ketamine-like states on cannabis.

Right, that's the implicit point but it was also said that all uses of it outside the social domain is hog feed to fatten the philosophy academics. lol

Yeah, more or less From my purview, literally any ‘tension’ involved when conversing with others face to face is entirely your fault — a result of your tense state of consciousness. -

Alien Mind is conforming to the human experience.

“Coffee is conformity, bitch!”

A lot of people really be trippin on this forum. I think they don’t realize that being a non-conformist is confomrning just as much as standard conformity.

Yeah people need to remember that laughter is the (best?) medicine haha

All you need to consider is what you think understanding reality is going to be (or look like, present as) isn't what you think it is going to be, or look like. Or present as. The concept of “ultimate understanding” is built out of the very limitations that understanding would dissolve. -
@Thought Art That's why we gotta keep things funny. Existential humor is key to all this.

@Miguel1 There is a lot to learn.

What's going on with that immune system you got there... I feel like you are getting mega shit-carded >.<
