Thought Art

We do excellent at all things. It’s that simple. Correct every error. Then, I finish fastest every time. And the whole world wins. Through you?

I'm waiting till I have 15,000 dollars saved up then I'll be out there talking to women

@jimwell Thank you. I am learning the best way to make my life satisfying is to let go, and secure my survival, embrace health and living to my highest values, liberate myself from the opinion of others and enjoy creating the best art I can regardless of who sees or hears it. Being a well known artist will come with a lot of BS as well. So, no matter what you do life is hard. I am an imperfect person and the more well known you are the more shit you have to deal with. So, I will grow a thicker skin and let go.

I had a kundalini awakening while doing breath of fire of a grassy hill 2 years before my God Realization

A bonus is as you get older: 1. Trip safely and plan to do many trips 2. Meditate everyday 30mins to an hour 3. Begin a contemplation practice 4. Begin developing your common place book 5. Watch Leo's Epistemology videos You can also explore mind body practices like Breathwork, Qigong and Yoga. Study the practice of embodiment as well. In terms of Psychology, you can develop a big picture understanding of the field and then begin integrating it with spiritual topics. You can also learn about Maslow's Work I think would be really valuable. Study system thinking, Human behaviour, sexuality, bias, religion vs science, philosophy of science, Consciousness, etc You are probably learning about: 1. Psychoanalysis etc (the history and various fields/ development in psychology.) 2. You probably study various theories, thinkers, and paradigms 3. Cognitive Psychology 4. Cognitive behaviour 5. Neuroscience 6. Various types of therapy 7. Polyvagal Theory 8. You'll probably study things like how drugs work etc. 9. How to collect data and do science etc You basically will want to study Psychology and really understand the paradigms surrounding you in your academic setting. On your spare time you are studying spirituality and the higher levels of understanding possible. The Books list may help you with that.

Leo's book list will take you well beyond psychology. There are also some pretty good psychology books on there. You could use Leo's reading list and your university courses for the next few years. You will begin to find more and more books as you learn more as well and you can add them to your personal reading list.

I've been through this. There is no way out. There is only a way through. The goal is to love what is and see the miracle of what you are.

No matter what happens, love your way through it all. There are even courses you can find, youtube channels etc. Put a sign up on your wall.

@universe Thank you, I will revisit my Me sheet. I did the course a few years ago now. I'm due for a review. I think my training in Qigong is related to my music now. I think I may be more clear on what I want them to actualize now. It may take some time to hone it down.

Also, how dare OP even try to spread this mind virus to others? If you have some kind of curse, or whatever. Keep it to yourself. Please. I am now clearing the forum of all curses. This way we can take full responsibility for our own lives, habits and cognitive/ energetic behaviour. You are not a victim. Be free.

Good. Go all the way. My friend just quit too.

Can we lock this foolishness? I am sorry. I don't see how any of the things you are experiencing is a curse. People forget their keys and generally have poor cognitive behaviour. I don't think curses exist. Why live in a such a way where you give your power away.

@Heart of Space If you forgot your keys normally or you forgot your keys because of a curse how do you know the difference? Can bad things happen to people who are not cursed?

@Heart of Space Interesting. How did you come to find out it was a curse?

So, those things are a curse? Or, something you can work on?

I think there could be some kind of legalization and a license to use certain drugs. Like, in order to take 5meodmt legally or LSD you need to do a mental health check, take a safety course and get certified to use it on your own for personal use. Sort of like getting gun training.

So, what cursed you?

@StarStruck Cool, I have no idea sounds like you both had it??

@markobo Hmmm, I don't know about this. I've experienced similar states through Qigong and energy work. I don't think meditation will get you to a 5meodmt state. Maybe if you did meditation, breathwork, Qigong, Tao Yin and Yoga techniques in just the right mixture over a long period of time completely uninterrupted you could maintain a deep state of some kind. To me meditation is more for mindfulness and mental health than it is for deep awakening. I found my trips increased my appreciation for meditation. But, they are different tools in the tool box. Just cuz I use a hammer doesn't mean I throw away my wrench.

This sort of talk is sort of a "What if"... takes you away from the work of realizing that you are an immortal being right now. But, you are a shape shifter. And, the real answer is also... I don't know. It seems stupid to lock yourself into a finite form forever.

https://www.actualized.org/insights/absolute-presence-immortality Leos blog post above. I have experienced this. This, this was the highlight of my life and it trumped everything I have experienced in the finite domain. It was the most obvious and yet most surprising realization I have ever had. It was for this reason I say my biggest "Thank you" to Leo, to God and to myself. Truly, my true nature is the Greatest Miracle... For eternity. Our true Nature is this Great Miracle. And, the only thing to do in my opinion is to master basking in the Glory of God's love and then translate it into this finite existence. It will take years, I may fail. To me, this is a game an eternal being would play with itself which makes reality make more sense to me. I know I am constructing my own meaning and there is nothing I need to do with my life. But, when you experience this Immortal State of Infinity/ Infinite Love for ever. You say Thank you to God. Then, here in my mundane state going through my day to day with all my challenges... I work to bring just a fraction of that love into the universe. "My mind is open wide and now I am ready to start"

@universe My initial statement from the life purpose course was "To ignite the spirit of humanity to self actualize via music"

So, over the weekend past I felt a lot of fear/ grief/ anger/ disappointment with where I am in life when I think about where I would like to be in my 'ideal fantasy' of my life. I've been studying books on success, but also books on surrender, acceptance and mindfulness. I am learning that, instead of just saying something like... "I want to be successful at X at the expense of everything else"... instead... It's more about letting go of that one thing.. and broadening out to include a more grounded, holistic approach to life. For example, I would like to be a full time musician and Qigong teacher. I would like to teach online and I would like to write music in full time. I would like to master both these fields to spread massive amount of love and health to the world. But, when I grip on to my vision to hard... When I need my progress to go faster.. When I need to have my band all figured out.. need to have x and y and z etc... It's stressful and... frankly I am still in the early process of this. I've been listening to Leos video on "How to fall in love with life" and reading the book "Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabit Zinn" and "Letting Go by David R. Hawkins" and speaking to you folks here on the forum all of which are a big help for this. I am learning it's less about life going in some perfect way... because it likely simply wont and hasn't in the past. There are too many random seeming factors in life, I have many real foundational elements to build in my life etc... So instead of trying to use how David R Hawkins calls it "Force"... trying to force reality to be a certain way... Instead surrender and use power to enjoy life. In the end, however life goes how it goes. You sort of have to steer your ship the best you can. I've noticed I haven't been the best general, the best pilot of my ship. I've lacked wisdom, and even common sense throughout this journey. I think my current path with Accounting has been for my logical part of my mind because Accounting and admin is central to survival as human. Qigong, journaling, tripping, meditation, and reading have been important for me to work on my internal hardware and software. I haven't been so wise in my late teens and 20s. I've tried a lot of things and failed most of them. But, I know I will continue to grow wiser each day. I like Leo's ideas on simply using each day to grow in each of the foundational areas of life. Improving health, improving diet, improving etc... This gives life it's meaning. For example, I enjoyed the challenge of losing my job and trying to find a new one. I just had an interview today and I have two tomorrow. This has been challenging but I know I have grown so much through it. Once I have a job, I will get second so I can pay off my debt. So, for the next few years instead of rushing towards becoming some big success and failing everywhere... I will build a healthy stable foundation. There are many Qigong workshops I will do on the weekends. I will work hard each day to fight down my debt and build a healthy savings and I will plan long term to get the musical gear I need to make my projects and to develop my skills. I will find a way to maintain some sort of music practice and Qigong practice through this period of heavy work load. I will grow, and develop many skills during my day job and I will use my night shift to fight for a future financial freedom. Life is hard, but it is a miracle. I notice I don't always take it for granted. But my four pillars of success for my future success is: 1. Count your blessing with gratitude 2. Proclaim your rarity 3. Go another mile 4. Use wisely your power of choice and do all things with love You are the greatest miracle in the world. -God

I generally only eat plants. But, I’m loosening my vegan grip and being more open. I don’t buy milk or meat. I’ve eaten meat for the first time in the last 5 years this week past. I didn’t miss it, didn’t notice any differences.

@puporing Yeah, good point. I’m going through interviews right now. Had one this morning I think I did ‘okay’ don’t know if I’ll get the job or not. Going to study and focus for the interview tomorrow.
