just like the matrix. is that a spiritual reference or just a cool idea of living in a world run by machine, one you could wake up out of all spiritual themes are implied. the author of The ALCHEMIST has said that there have been so many different writings / interpretations about his book that often he doesn't have the idea from which view he wrote it either way. yes. when YOU can find that theme in there, it will be true for you and this is a powerful one @Bill W about having forgotten about your true nature, the fall and the rise there's also another story about a lion whose parents are killed when he's a young cub and he goes off to live with the sheep. then when he's fully grown, he's spotted one day by another lion who is shocked to see him eating grass n whatnot with the sheep. he charges at him and the sheep-lion also runs away BAAAing like a sheep. the new lion takes a hold of him and shows him his face in the lake. and when it clicks, the sheep-lion INSTANTLY is back to being what he always was, a lion and ROARS - reborn. @Nahm gotta love the petaa pan <3 <3 classic and wow. don't recall those. epic

@Serotoninluv @This it's jesus 20th centruy bro! he got the blings on, naa meannnnnn? OH YEAHHHHHH!!! Forogt

continuing the weird form day theme of today

@SOUL lawl

The Seeker: Does it make me a better person if I quit non veg and become a vegetarian? The Master: If that was the case then all vegetarians would be saints and all non vegetarians would be sinners. In fact what comes out of the mouth is more important than what goes in. @Nahm

When one resists and denies the unique aliveness—the never-to-be-repeated suchness—of each moment, that is when one searches. Something, one feels, is missing. Something is incomplete, something requires improvement, something is not as it should be—so one searches for something else. But there is no something else. This is it. Because simply living out the completely natural, biological unfolding of this aliveness—birth, being, dying, death—feels frightening or somehow unsatisfactory, a search arises for that legendary “something else.”… The end of searching for satisfaction is not achieved by trying to call off the search, nor is the end of searching a once and forever “end.” The feeling of not needing to search—of having no questions the answers to which require searching—is a state of mind that can never be produced willfully but, rather, is one that arises naturally in any moment met openly and naively… In simplest terms, “awake” is when you don’t take this aliveness for granted. Imagining a better tomorrow comes to a halt. The anodyne promises of “spirituality” do not obtain. We have this moment and all it entails. You may like what you see, feel, and think, or detest it. You may fear what is in front of you, or desire it—maybe even a little of both. Likes and dislikes are not ours to choose. What is, is, including fear and desire. This, as they say, is it. Awakeness is not “spirituality,” in which one aims at an imagined “perfect” state that some saint or holy man attained, and to which that “great one” has marked the path. I have no need for such pie in the sky. The awakeness I know means being with whatever is right now, without explanations, justifications, or fantasizing about something better or “more evolved.” -- Robert Saltzman, from Depending on No-Thing

UGHHHHHHHHHHHH lol & likewise my friend. it's always nice talking to myself

@VeganAwake LOL is that from the show: Whose Line Is It Anyway? and you know what... having no purpose/meaning is great! because it's all for fun kids play with toys, their imagination people play the piano, instruments people dance what is the meaning or value of any of that? there's no goal there. the activity is the goal. and when's that's the case. it is only for fun, enjoyment.

@remember hmmm. unsure, i only read the last page. anyhow, don't let em get to you girl! unsure what the discussion was... but anyways, i like to think of my getting triggered or angry as others having my remote control they press certain buttons and BOOM, they get a reaction out of me don't let anyone have a remote control for your emotions! you are your own queen! don't let anyone disturb the peace of your Queendom!

@remember indeed. shared beliefs/thoughts create a shared reality ask any flat-earther group. their reality does not include a round earth, but a flat one and not sure about the part about harassment on the forum. i'd message a mod. about it if someone has been disrespectful or such. stay blessed

not nothing. you're arguing with yourself but if you are really conscious of that, then there would be no argument there is the conscious whole speaking to its unconscious parts until they also merge with the conscious whole.

MEANING OF REALITY/EXISTENCE: ______________ that BLANK doesn't mean meaningless nor does it mean meaningful that ______________ is empty of any inherent value of meaning. so you can assign ANY meaning to it whatsoever and it will be valid to the one assigning it. that's because your beliefs/thoughts create your reality.

what it is - is really EMPTY of all meaning. blank canvas. nothing matters is giving it a certain meaning in a way. just like someone else may say, saving the climate matters both are valid. it's like a children's coloring book. it is blank and you may color in anything you want. there's no right or wrong. all colors are valid. or like an appearance without a label/subtitle. you can look at it and create any subtitle. it is empty to allow for this.

enlightenment/peace is like getting struck by lightening. there are ways to increase the chances of getting struck by being outdoors during a thunderstorm and reducing the chances by staying indoors. but sometimes lightening can strike randomly someone minding their own business. it's like an accident. & psychedelics/meditation/practices make you more accident-prone also. god bless good ol' spira

There's only SAND SAND is the shitty/evil sand-castles and SAND is also the really good sand-castles. SAND is the devilish sand-castles and SAND is the angelic sand-castles. SAND is simply only what the sand-castles are made out of. ================================================== There's only GOD GOD is the shitty/evil people and GOD is also the really good people. GOD is the devil and SAND is the angel. GOD is simply only what everything/person is made out of.

in this world, I am HE, living as ME. and there's an evolution which takes the me to he and then he to HE and then HE is the World+ME and I am HE.

@The Don ultimately and absolutely it is not good or bad it just IS - as it is. relatively, events, people, individuals can be good or bad depending on your own subjective beliefs about what is defined as good or bad. the ultimate "goodness" of consciousness points at loving/allowing of any&every thing which can be. and it is also ultimately GOOD because it is ONE are you "good" to your body? do you thank yourself for scratching an itch or drinking water when you are thirsty? you're naturally in love with your body and are good to yourself same way, consiousness is naturally in love with its body... which is its own self.

@Adilbek GOD SAYS: I AM GOD GOD SAYS: There isn't anyone (BUT GOD) Important to understand what the context is. It's like watching a movie where a character (named Tony for example) dies. now you tell me Abilbek, what statement is true? Tony died vs Nobody actually died can you see that the "true" statement depends on the context? within the plot of the movie, Tony died. but from the standpoint of real-life Tony is just a character being played by an actor. Tony is fiction. So nobody died. Both statements are TRUE when seen from a relative standpoint.

@ivankiss amen you ARE the moment who is the you that is the moment moment is you you is the moment yin yang bing bang GOOD! now turn to page 394!

@ivankiss HAHA I tried a few times... but I came up a few short

but ultimately. any book you may read... ALL OF IT is all available. You don't have to read from page 1, then 2, 3... 100 you can flip thru the book, read page 66, then back to 33, and then 99... that which is outside of time, is by definition existing at all-the-times you are the reader of the book, you've confused yourself with the one who is appearing in the book.

I think this is wrong. I read that it was a zillion frames per minute.

@deso research this. science calls this the placebo effect. it is that, taken to it's much higher potential. it's like lifting weight. a baby doesn't even know it can lift using hands... the it discovers it has hands to begin with and that they can lift things. and then it's like straightening the muscles to be able to lift. regenerating body is a very advanced level of that, but just like lifting heavier and heavier weight is possible thru strength training and working out. this is also possible by doing it until it becomes conviction and you have its proof. i had wrist pain from a workout injury, tried many things over the years, did not come back to 100% until I read about the power of mind to heal and simply i would rub my wrist and send it healing vibes twice a day and it became stronger and stronger until it was back to (and seems now even beyond) the 100% another thing, i had beard patches in a few place and then i brought my conscious attention to that and would massage the patches sending healing vibes and now KNOWING it works (because of my experience with wrist) it was only a matter of doing it and in a few weeks, the patches began to shrink and the beard grew back in fully as the strength and power of this mechanism increases, the time for the result to materialize decreases until there's no gap and you're at the level of instantaneous manifestation (that's extremely high, like Christ level healing and beyond) #SnowBallEffect Once it gets rolling, there's no bottom of the hill, the momentum, strength and the size grow on without end.

I don't think so... I KNOW so.
