@Aaron p AARON. No duality between insane and sane. What does that mean to you? We are ultimately seeing different sides of the same coin I think. -

Friendships are just as important as romantic relationships, maybe more so. We often don't make time for our friends because we put romantic relationships, money and practical things over friends. Especially when we hit our late 20's and 30's and life gets in the way of fun and friendship. -

It's doing by not doing. You're doing it now. -

@Anton_Pierre "At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, 'Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?' "He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: 'Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me'” (Matthew 18:1–5, New International Version). -

I feel you. I'm still annoying everyone all of the time it seems. -

@Inliytened1 Yes sorry, was quoting from Nahm. -

@Serotoninluv Eckhart Tolle calls in the "flowering of human consciousness" and compares it with the first flowers that evolved on earth. Their spread is exponential. I have the feeling that we are really close to a huge burst in exponential growth. No need to be sad, ultimately the universe is one being and will awaken as one. -

Ok, so first, the whole one stomach, two lungs, thing...WOAH. Second... Does this mean we should just shut up about our experiences and that the need to share them inhibits our growth? -
@Truth Addict Yes, but my journal is an open invitation.

@Truth Addict It's not rape if it's consensual.

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it does it make a sound? No. -
Quite incredibly deep lyrics for a popular kids movie. I'd never heard the original until now. Leo, Leonard Cohen! You wrote this too.

@Aldo Have you seen this one? -
@Leo Gura "You take a dumb animal like a donkey, and you think why did God create this dumb animal, but you look at it from a higher perspective and you realize that yes the donkey is dumb compared to lets say a human but it's serving it's function perfectly, and even those dumb human beings who are dumb relative to more intelligent human beings, they are serving their function perfectly in the whole." Did you write Shrek, Leo?

"The village has disappeared in the evening mist, and the path is hard to follow. Walking through the pines, I return to my lonely hut." The quote at the end of Leo's Hero's Journey video. There are no enlightened masters. There are no gurus. They are your monsters. They are devils. Love them equally. The holy grail is a McDonald's cup thrown out on the side of a road. From the gospel of Thomas "His disciples said to him, "When will the kingdom come?" Jesus said, "It will not come by waiting for it. It will not be a matter of saying 'here it is' or 'there it is.' Rather, the kingdom of the father is spread out upon the earth, and men do not see it."

This is the place he explores chaos magic. But he titles it "Sacred Space" and wants it keep it an orderly journal!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Oh it took me a while, but I got the joke eventually.

@Preetom SHIT! I'm still just starting the video. Entertaining myself on the forum way too much this morning. I'll go watch now. I don't know if you read the thread where I said I fucked off from taking AP English in highschool because I wouldn't spent my summer doing the reading. Well later as an adult I made myself read Moby Dick all the way through to prove something to myself. It's fucking AMAZING. It's about enlightenment. Go watch Lana Del Rey. Enjoy her. She makes herself so sad so that you can be happy. -

@Preetom JESUS IS NOT EXOTIC!!! Good Lord, dude, he's our Good Lord. Have you ever bought a drink at McDonald's and you pay for it and they hand you an empty cup and you're like ,"what the actual fuck?" Then you realize that it's self serve, you have to get your own drink yourself, the soda was there all along, but you needed the cup from them in order to drink it. All this spiritual work we do, it's complete bullshit. But if you aren't thirsty you won't be willing to pay for an empty cup. Or listen to a three hour long video on understanding duality. -

@Preetom Which masturbation theory are we talking about? The one that says there is no duality between sex and masturbation? Because that's the most recent one he talked about which sticks in my mind. You think Lana Del Rey is hot but you don't want to admit it. Men have been taught not to lose themselves in the Siren's songs. Go spend your life as a miserable grumpy old sailor, hunting your white whale, Captain Ahab. -
mandyjw replied to mandyjw's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Preetom No. Jesus said, "There are many around the drinking trough, but there is nothing in the cistern." -
What about parfaits? Everyone likes parfaits.
