No it didn't shock me, I would love to see that

Hello, thank you so much Mandy! I promise I'll go easy on you if you go easy on me ? (or not, whichever!)

This is lovely Sometimes I have to stop myself from stepping on a bug, they are there if we take notice. They have their missions, if we don't interfere.

Abosulutely, just start a thread when you are ready and tag me in it. Just so you know, I leave on the 24th for two week vacation in Europe so I won't be able to respond much. We could wait until after Sept 7th, or start now, whatever. Although I've been thinking I would like something to mull over during the vacation...

@mandyjw @Truth Addict haha a blatant post requesting personalized guidance couldn't get more LoA than that

Thanks, that doesn't bother me nor negate my post...

Yeah I asked for that exact thing.... No replies ?

You can kiss feet in love and gratitude, or you can kiss feet because you think it will get you something. Osho can't help which one happens, so both are allowed.

I think the better question is : does a personality and set of memories and experiences get uploaded to 'the cloud' after death of the body? Or dissapate to make way for something new? They say that if you can stay conscious during the death experience this may happen, and it takes a lifetime of consciousness work to achieve that

I love breathing videos but they never last long enough. 20 - 40 minutes would be great

Lol I like how you created a loop between the two threads

The past exists in thoughts, (memory) and the future exists in fantasy (thought). This is very easy to see, but doesn't help explain how, for example, I stub my toe earlier, and it's red and throbbing now ?‍♂️

? ?

Because the forum it is in is so active that threads fall off the page sometimes the same day. It's hard to connect with other dream workers that way. If it had its own forum the threads would be easy to find and reply to. And like field of dreams, 'if you build it, they will come'

No my discipline sucks. But I have good dream recall. Yes dreams can be used for shadow work, unraveling the subconscious, etc. Some have even had nondual experience in dreams.

We need a new subforum for dream work but there's so little interest on this forum for whatever reason.... A forum that's main focus is consciousness work.... ?‍♂️

@Beginner Mind It makes you wonder if the entire transition to living consciously is a conscious effort... Or maybe it just makes a great story

The thing is, that's so far off it's not even worth fantasizing about... Let's be practical in what can help us now. Yes in this scenario we would no longer be living in fear and closer to our true nature. But current human nature is tied to the ego and unconscious behavior. Luckily you don't have to wait for a fantasy scenario to see your way out of this. Yes you can relax in the truth that your previous actions had no actor. But don't try too hard to justify your actions because you will still have to face them. They are both yours and not yours simultaneously

To start, this is not a thread to debate on the existence of Jesus. It is highly possible that any stories about him are coded allegories which either was meant to be decoded, or just hearing the stories unlocks something in the subconscious. Whichever is true, you have to admit he said some pretty cool things! I'll add more each time I find one, and the second post will be edited for every update. Please add any that you find interesting... @Bill W @jbram2002 @mandyjw

@Beginner Mind Yeah...such a society would be completly foreign and alien to us, but could possibly be the One we are evolving into. I like your forward thinking.... Such a society we often think of as a utopia, but if we truly examine it, it's like all the fun will be sucked out of life. It sounds really happy and great, but kind of boring. And it'd be interesting to see how they would think of us. If they even remember us.

Haha that got zero likes on my Facebook page

Just do what feels natural. Why fight it? If it feels natural to you to act as if we make choices, then do that. BTW, it's what feels natural to me, too...

Leo beat me to blood work, but also check for b vitamins and vitamin D levels. I would also ask doctor about chronic fatigue syndrome. If you are male, get your testosterone levels checked. Also, I recently started using a protein shake/meal replacement powder that will eliminate your need to eat better in the morning. You don't want just any crap you get from the store. Research online which is the best for you, or I can send you a link to what I ordered. If you aren't already drinking coffee... Don't! At least wait to try that until you exhaust all other suggestions on this thread. Coffee is a slippery slope and very addictive

You do and you don't. Live from both perspectives. Face yourself and the choices you have made, meanwhile relax in the fact that these happenings were unconscious, and completely the natural order of things, and no one is responsible.
