shame is the extent you lie to the world about who you are shameless is being uncompromisingly you i give not an eff who sees me thus we feel shame to play the game of social climbing

there is only one question when you're born do i want to come back again or be done with it

first you awaken in the dream, you see if someone slaps you, it is nothing and you don;t interfere with one little thing then you awaken from the dream when you have been doing the above for long enough and it is automatic and all your karma can't touch you

in other words dont seek a confession of guilt their journey is their journey, if they want to change, be glad and accept that, if they don't so be it too your job is to let go and realize what happened wasn't bad but actually helped you out considerably

so person a makes person b suffer and you would like person a to acknowledge the suffering they have caused truth is, you don't make another suffer they choose suffering as the reaction to how you acted if i insult you, you can feel grievance and pledge retaliation or you can feel pity that i am one more example of how hurt people look to hurt people everything that happens to me is impersonal arbitrary necessary efficacious unstoppable we need to stop feeling special and let everything happen to our and the world's best interests

these are the preparatory steps to pranayama

spiritual ego is how often you think act as say ... i am awake and you think act as say that they are not

shame is i dread the world's judgement being heaped at my feet i refuse to let you know who i am really am, instead i will pretend that what you say is right shame is me caving in to your values and feeling bad at the abject weakling i reveal myself to be poor little me

Renard's DU trilogy talks extensively about aliens and even documents trips to and limited interactions with them not a big deal it's all one big distraction of course if you haven't done the work that you came here for

welcome to the madhouse, nice to meet you, love to know a little more, can you tell us what part of the world you inhabit, how does your typical day look like, are you close with your family, are you involved in your community, do you have a line of work, what does your spiritual practice look like, how has your year been, any high points, any goals for the new year, read any good books of late, which spiritual teacher is your favorite, tell me an important insight you have recently had, hope you choose to stick around and join in the tomfoolery

the journey is from ignorant to innocent so you return to the child-state but you know what is up there are two responses one can have to any situation, a frown or a smile children help us awaken in mirroring their smiles frown is every time you say f-this, smile is every time you say behold-this

Hey c, great to see you're taking on a 3-day retreat in vipassana it is very structured and you meditate about 10 hours a day and it is hella valuable for us serious types, would thoroughly recommend 3-day will be nice too, if you are not used to doing long sits i would max out at 1-2 hours sits and break the day up into a bunch of sits followed by walking/reading/writing sessions ... in order words don't overdo it it will have great benefits ... feel free to ask any specific questions ... hope the retreat is ground breaking and you let us know how it goes

you have to set aside any outcome if you want it to go a certain way, you will be miserable the whole time leave mind at the door and just sit telling someone you are going to do a long sit is the worst thing you can possibly do, you have now piled expectations on your shoulders when you end a long sit you will probably feel no different than when you started this is a good sign that it's working and you won't need to torture yourself analysing it better than any long sit is to commit to a manageable length regular sit for the rest of your life or until awakening whichever comes sooner

there are plenty of books on amazon that have already done that caveat emptor since most give you no clue what you are buying

yes reddit used to be top dog on the block, on a good day you could get an expert point of view on the hardest question askable chat-gpt has absorbed all the reddit data and combined it with the equivalent of another million reddits best of all you dont wait for your answer ... boggles my mind how it outputs so fast and so intelligently (pro tip: even now if you use google to search for something add the word reddit to your search and you get way better results)

gary renard puts it much better than me in his 3rd book

to be a victim is to be a hater ... you need to align more with love in baby steps ... forgiveness is saying to another you did the best you were able ... this is the start of love ... everyone who is wounded simply needs someone to love them back to health

the only choice is i am a victim or i am a vessel for all to take place ... one of these lifetimes i will get tired of being a victim and realize what i am

i'll keep with the light side i think ... forgiveness is HOW you crush your enemies ... the only enemy is inner-me get it?

forgiveness is the only meaningful reaction to life ... it is a mental adjustment from i thought you could hurt me to i know you could never hurt me forgiveness is not primarily to do with other people ... it is adjusting your mindset to the true nature of reality and the part you are playing in it of course you remove yourself well clear from someone who will abuse you else you are sinking even deeper the abuser as well as yourself abusers are going to abuse, it is not your mission to deal with them, your only responsibility is to your own agenda of growth evolution ascension etc.

for me this is rough ... i ramp up the self care and sleep a ton more the things i hate are: dark, cold, seasonal societal mania, holidays, end of year, illness potential i just lie low and keep to myself until the sun comes back ... for my sanity i need to steer clear of any and all frantic humans once solstice hits on the 21st, i know things are getting better

what does to close mean in dating circles?
