  1. Yes anger is to drink poison and hope the other person dies.
  2. Don't look outside and say wow they are the same as me. Look inside and say wow I am the same as them. You create them. They don't create you. Looking at someone is to see your mind at work. You always do everything to yourself.
  3. Yes. Better word is perpetuation. Be angry all you please. You cannot not be angry. It arises. You choice is perpetuation and this is unskilful. Realize you are the problem, not them. You misperceived. They didn't misstep. Admit I was mistaken. Don't perpetuate. The miracle that unfolds is then anger doesn't arise. You reprogrammed yourself to catch your silliness. You are free. And the world is perfect.
  4. Pride for me is knowing what I am. Gratitude is who told me. I couldn't have done it alone. Pride is the extent to which I choose the real me. Most days are 10/10. Pride is making the ego humble. It's next to nothing but I do need it a while. It does my bidding not me its. It knows its place. It's my favourite pet. I'm grateful for it since without it how could I know me. I'm proud of me. I came a long way.
  5. Of course there is exceptions which is why I said rarely. Anyone awake is beyond silly rules. For most it backfires. Man is lazy, takes a back seat and lets woman wear the pants. Fair play if that's what works.
  6. Anger isn't chosen; it arises automatically or not. If it does, I can either continue it through more interpretation or release it to allow for non-interference. One sustains misperception; while release of anger allows reality to be clearly seen.
  7. I am going to give every cent to my kids. Maybe one day they do same for me. Of course with me gone they will do same for their kids. It's perfect life.
  8. Woman has next to no interest in a man not into her or who witholds interest signals. Life's too short and plenty more fish in the sea. If she makes first moves, she compromises herself since this is the entire foundation of a potential relationship. She makes herself weak and desperate. Yes sometimes indeed rarely she will bypass this for a greater good - take a risk. Fact is that he must do the initial lifting to get it off the ground. Man decides on day 1 if she is right for him. She takes her sweet time deciding. So if she jumps in first beware - its a false flag.
  9. God is what is. God's genius is that it allowed ways to block itself from awareness and ways to resume itself to awareness. This universe is the blocking mechanism. Everything here blocks. Spirituality is restoring awareness. Not many understand alas. Hopefully this clicks for some. I have talked about how to restore awareness elsewhere. I learned from ACIM.
  10. Give up others and thinking of them and learning from them. You have to do the work. Do the work and share what is good. When you share, you share so that you yourself understand. That is the only reason I write here.
  11. Worldview is fixed until one is an adult. Then I don't need to like it or lump it like before. I can leave it and embrace what I please. The world is my oyster. In my case, I lived half my life in UK and half in US. I thus deconstructed the myopic worldview handed me that UK is the Great Empire, the Lingua Franca and Heaven's Choice. The goggles came off and I could find more objective and salutary views, I'm not of the white race but the human race.
  12. What I said was, everything is a choice. Default is fear. Everyone is walking around feeling uneasy. But you can change that. You can choose love. And what's amazing is, you will see only love. First just glimpses. Then it gets more stable. Takes massive intentionality and much practice.
  13. A 5yo can understand this. Which word is difficult?
  14. It isn't what you see; it is how you see. What you see does not change. You decide to see it right. And then all you see is light.
  15. No it is completely ordinary. Our default is to make everything separate and scary. We need to decide to drop this any time we can remember. This opens us up to what is real. Eventually it can be the default.
  16. There are two steps to take. 1 - Nothing can disturb me. 2 - The nothing I believed could possibly disturb me was all the while me.
  17. You don't think you put them there to make you a lovely drink?
  18. My standard farewell to everyone I meet is: Lots of love
  19. I'd say you are imposing poverty on your experience. Let richness be revealed.
  20. They are goddesses for me. Pure love. But I guess I live in a nice place. What about yourself?
  21. There are two ways to live. Look at every tree and say I know everything about this that could possibly be known. Or every moment say I am willing to have the meaning revealed. This is the only worthwhile epistemology - leading naturally to the fullness of consciousness.
  22. Basically I scan labels first for fiber then for protein last for sugar. I go for decent amount of fiber >4g per serving, high protein >4g per serving, low sugar <4g per serving. Just a rule of thumb, flexibility is key. For example, I eat chocolate daily which is 10g of sugar. Calories or fat, I am not concerned with since my metabolism has let me stay the same weight (140lbs) my whole life. Besides I would say 90% of what I eat is same each week so don't need to tweak it. My main goal is higher protein and lower sugar - seems to make body feel better.
  23. Do you want to suffer? For example, anger is dumb. That's why you need truth. And not to know it but to be it. Or just be like the crowd if you want. Truth isn't for everyone. You can wait as many life-times as you like. Suffering in silly anger games.
  24. Truth does allow one to protect and defend oneself. You are allowed to be selfish. You have to survive if you are going to wake up. And even when awake, you still need to survive. Me being alive is the only way the light stays alight in an ever darkening world.
  25. Hate is the silliness that I would not do what you are doing if I were in your shoes. I can still want to get away from your form yet still know that you are doing what you have to do. Please get yourself help but please don't target me in your crosshairs. Imma outta here. If 400 scorpions are in my house, I have actually wandered into their house - squatters right right? - and I am no longer in my house. I need to build a better house at some point.
