i am the way i am the truth i am the life in other words life is the way and life is the truth and truth is the way ... all of which you can embody

i have extricated from christianity only recently but its language, its tradition and its mysticism can give us a way to comprehend the absolute ... sorry to hear you have suffered so much and i hope you feel that things are moving favorably now ... i feel we are a completely new creation every day even though i myself am still caught up in some pretty heavy (family related) subjugation myself which never seems to end

speaking of which, this snip about evil is good

in survival mode, all evil can be justified, i am looking after me and mine and in that case you don't see it as evil but inevitable survive is 1st, then thrive, then arrive ... thrive is getting on the path and seeing that life is beautiful and seeing that everyone is doing their best according to their level of consciousness and the level of wounding they were subjected to a word i got this week is, anxiety is everyone hates me depression is nobody loves me ... not that i seek to minimize these disorders of course

am with you on this ... it is setting aside the sunshine and roses in a real sense, at least attachment to them ... i notice everyone is so reliant on Leo so hooked on him so triggered by him even so enamored of him ... this is not healthy, we need to be singularly focused, we have to throw the crutches away ... i want to wake up each morning needing nothing from the day before, just being a blank slate an open book i too don't get much of a boost from the work, meditation brings me only ... abcd: agony, boredom, commitment, distraction ... i do it because i see the insanity around me and have severed myself from it, i see beauty love truth and it inspires me to press on you are right, it is't all sunshine and roses but we are comrades arm in arm and so let us press on

its the same dynamic just like let's say one percent of women typically say yes to any given man so then one percent of men typically won't take a no from a given woman women need to be constantly on guard as in social settings they are sitting targets for who knows what abuse assault and this kind of aggravation are daily facts of life for women

"The clarion call of Babaji is to rise from this slumber of ignorance. The raft of knowledge will take you safely over the stormy waves of this great ocean of samsara. Therefore, struggle hard to attain this knowledge."

knowing is to fool people that we have something to offer them i exist, damn it that's why i type on random threads do you know what i mean?

most of what i communicate is the recent word given to me, i do not see myself as a spokesperson rather a fearless transmission tower of anything divine i happen across, i am certain most of the time no one else gets it, so i am happy what i said resonated with you ... it is a great gift that you can share your words in vulnerability, being so is alien to me, i am a bit too much stuck in the logical mind

my take: finite self is god seemingly shrinking itself down to a point so it can look around and behold! love is its expansion back to wholeness

your presence teaches volumes ... showing up is the chief battle of life ... after that you are an unqualified blessing teaching is overrated and i know cause i was one for the longest time ... what counts is sharing, collaborating, connecting, being vulnerable enough to say it like it is ... teaching is partnership

little snip of some real talk about pain from ken wilber

everyone is living the absolute truth according to their level of consciousness when you awaken you see that everyone is perfect and everything is perfect (based on the above statement) this allows you to love the worst of the worst

love this ... what about peace too? have an acrostic for it ... p-erfectly e-mbrace a c-hanging e-nvironment

have to straddle both sides of the fence ... that delicate precarious intentional balance ... believing we are anchored on one side is the trouble

god forgetting that it made itself irresistible, a real dandy devil

love your enthusiasm and your scientific bent, thanks for sharing these suggestions ... only thing i do is divide the 16 hours into six x 160 minutes since 160 mins is the max i can sit for plus i like how it nicely splits up the day into 6 sessions so no desire to tweak ... ideally i do 3 x 160 mins sits which is half the day but i can only manage this when i am in retreat mode, so my day to day currently is doing 2 sits and 4 non sits namely worldly stuff ... keep me nicely on track

love is the glue joining me to you making love maketh god

pain is resisting god

truth is realizing that everyone is living their own truth according to their level of consciousness and it is all fine and dandy ... forgive them father they don't know what they're doing ... have mercy on me father for thinking things should be otherwise there is not friend and foe in life, just aware and unaware truth is radical subjectivity according to david hawkins, this sums it up nicely

when you stop talking to yourself you can start talking to others

gender is overrated ... that's why in society it is getting ever more blurred

very sorry to hear of your loss ... for sure this will be the hardest time of your life ... you will not get over this but you can get through it i recommend ken wilber's book on this subject called grit and grace, if you are his fan check out this interview in which he references this book: my partner died of cancer at the start of last year so i have some idea how rough this is ... bless you and i send you lots of love today

self halt > self help take the load off your back so god can carry it

this real talk, bravo
