Well, this is what I'm referring to, the body cannot handle these states on a permanent bases. That's why the never lasts. They are interchangeable. I think neutrality is our natural state. Those other states will come and go.

I don't know why I have a problem with this bliss thing. I think neutrality is our default state all other states stem from this that's why they're temporary. The body was not designed to be in a permanent state of bliss or even happiness. It's just not. It's the mind that is imposing these preferred states. Anxiety and/or depression probably stems from the mind trying to remain in these positive states for longer than their life span and the body rejects this. All these emotions are designed to pass through the body, not sit there and cause the body to stress. I think neutrality is really bliss.

Don't forget "identity crises".

Let jealousy be. If it arises it will subside. The very demand to not get jealous and to try to resist that energy will strength it. It's energy at play. It's alive. It's energy in motion. Let it pass through. Humans create problems where there is none. You don't have to do anything with it other than observe it in silence and allow for it to subside. The only problem is what the mind attaches to that energy. The thoughts that come with it. The stories. The identification with it. It's not you. It's minding it's own business, so should you. It will eventually go somewhere else where it is welcome and gets the attention it craves. You say "despite understanding non-duality, how can this be practiced in reality to never get jealous". You're trying to manipulate reality. To be the boss, to ignore what is and maneuver reality your way. You think you're the boss, you think (the ego that is), is in charge. No matter how you try to say, well non duality is just spiritual mumbo jumbo, but let's get real and let's solve our own problems. Go ahead and see how that works for you. It will never end. Try to incorporate the two (duality/non-duality) because both are illusory and the two is how you will neutralize the energy and create balance. The jealousy is dual and the way you neutralize it should be non-dual as in see it as not for anyone, just energy coming and going just like everything else.

I see what you're saying, but I wouldn't call it a disorder. If that's the case, most people have an identity disorder because they're identified with what they're not existentially. It's just another form of identity, of which there are many. We're all disordered. We're destroyers and creators simultaneously. We have to destroy in order to create.

Perverted energy has to go somewhere (not saying all porn is perverted, just the perverted ones). So perverted porn is an outlet. It's all energy. Road ragers are also letting out that anger energy. Has to go somewhere.

Most people are not watching porn because they're unable to have sex with someone they truly love. Someone they truly love doesn't provide the perversion that porn does and doesn't satisfy their sexual fantasies. One has nothing to do with the other, especially for men.

I'm bipolar. Wait till next week when I'm an entitled bitch again that knows everything and start preaching the there's no you sob story,😜😜😜

Nice. I was kinda on point. Take it easy, though. Geesh, my head spun reading that list you were into.

Lol, I've evolved.....

Are you Autistic @Keryo KoffaJust asking. You seem to be very artistic and Universally intelligent (not speaking about IQ intelligence). Do you get headaches often? You seem to never stop. Love your personality, btw. You seem like a nerd, and I love nerds. Excuse me if you're not; even though that's not an insult.

That's not enough, need to add one more.

I think maybe take a break.

Yes, that's exactly what the experience is all about. The game of life. Play it your way, baby.

That's right! Do it your way. It's a personal thing and no right or wrong way. That's why I just said "ok" in my response. Not that I agreed or was taking a lesson, but why argue when one sounds so sure in telling you their perspective or whatever the word is. We're having our own individual dream or whatever you call that too, and no two are exactly the same. People are not gonna change anything just from someone making a random comment on a forum, so when it comes to certain things Spiritually, it's best to let them go through their personal stages. It all leads back to the All There Is anyway. No one is really or ultimately lost; it's just a matter of perspective or whatever you call it and it's all a part of the Absolute.

Love this song. Beautiful voice. Go Hootie!

Do you realize how you've recognized them to be scammers. Your authorization. You signed the deal. You also realized Bob to not be one. How? Your authorization. You signed the deal. Some people think Bob was a scammer and some also believe some scammers to be real. The scammers play the role for you to recognize the real deal and vice versa. No need to idolize, just recognize. Can't recognize good without bad. Both are needed for polarization. To recognize what you're not. It's fine to like and recognize one's work to be of value and to one's liking, but to say fuck one over another, and that one died a legend now it has turned into a contest, idolization, and pedestalizing. The only reason you recognize genius is because you have it in you.

Ok

Aha! Nobody thought of that. That alone says a lot.

I get that. Not sure what you guys talked about, but it could have just been experiences and not a true Awakening, which is ever present and cannot be lost just recognized.

This is a very important episode, especially for those interested in moving up the ladder, actualizing, transcending.
