Are you wanting others - or simply distraction, entertainment? I have rarely felt lonely throughout my life. When I experience a situation as you describe: alone, walking in late evening - I never feel alone. I never feel empty or 'not good'. I feel completely immersed in the experience of reality. The warm spring air, the new grass and flowers. The colours of the sunset as beams stretch out to touch the horizon. The soft birdsong and tinkle of the river. There is so much in our experience - how rich it is. I don't want to miss it. I cannot feel alone with all of this beauty surrounding me. Nothing lasts, so I cherish the moment.... Are you distracted from noticing all within your experience?

I suspect this also. I have known a few individuals with bipolar disorder. A lot of how Jordan and his daughter behave in cycles, religiously looking for the thing that is 'the cause of it all' and then suffering from some nondescript illness? Eerily similar to the two people I know who go into mania for a couple of months and then deep depression. In addition Mikhaila married her current partner after 2 weeks of knowing him. Fits mania. I honestly think their minds are doing this. The depression and extreme fatigue a symptom of their bodies needing to halt everything due to flatlining energy after a period of mania/hypomania. Peterson never seems 100% emotionally stable. They appear to constantly be under 'threat' from something, and it is always outside themselves. Anyway this is just my observation - I don't have a complete picture. In addition - I find it so strange Mikhaila is so so so paranoid about health related stuff like black mould etc - then admits to cosmetic surgery (and I am by no means against any of that sort of thing, women can do as they please. I just personally don't invest so much self into appearance to ever undergo anything). The cognitive dissonance of that alone points to mental strain. Entertaining so much contradiction shows a slightly fractured mind...

I think it is a pointer used to highlight that what you are is not what you think - 'the self' - by calling attention to something being aware of thoughts, feelings, perceptions. I hear it from Rupert Spira frequently, in particular. I think it is just a teaching technique to change perspective and illustrate the lower case self. The 'vast' is probably a way to instil the thought that you are MORE than the body, the thoughts, the perceptions and its 'limitations'.

I think a lot of this sort of a descriptor 'vast' comes from the contemplation that we cannot find a beginning and an end to our awareness. I have heard this dialogue before 'let us try to find the beginning of awareness, or an end. Is there a border?' I take it the term 'vast' is said as 'immense' or 'great extent'

Especially for experiencers! We get shit carded at every opportunity. I do not bother even bringing the topic up or going in depth anymore due to how irrational people become trying to tell me what I experienced. I just shut the fuck up about it now. People come at you with pitchforks and everything they have because something we experienced challenges their entire worldview. What happened to me doesn't make me special. I didn't make it up. It was just some weird shit I cannot explain. Religious folks are probably the worst in this arena.

Well there's a something there!! I don't suppose you have done any additional research into UFOs either, since I raised the US Nimitz congressional stuff in the UFO mega-thread etc? I know its not crop circle related... but it COULD be !

That would be an assumption you are making - I am just having fun. Have you read Leo's books regarding UFO's on the booklist? Previously you have come at these topics touching on UFO/NHI etc with very little research done. It might be nice to ask yourself with regard to this topic: 'What is really at stake for me?' Because you certainly have a bee in your bonnet regarding it - your posts on this topic are very emotionally loaded compared to others

@Joshe Triggered? 🤪

... ...... .......... Reported Low quality post.

I could be wrong - but I believe in a previous post Leo intimated he believes no one has reached the levels of consciousness he has reached because 'no one has spoken about it'. Not verbatim.

@cistanche_enjoyer I do think it goes back to my original post - you just don't get a set of experiences (ie body death)

It comes down to the fact that Leo cannot know another's experience. And the rational that 'I hear no one talk about it' is not actually a proper reason to believe this is the case.

@Ishanga Thanks for the response Nice to read the viewpoint! Was definitely a rhetorical sort of question as it is one of the fundamental philosophical questions with no single agreed-upon answer

Here we go with the non-dual bypassing again. It just makes communication so difficult

Some of these crop circles that have been researched suggest that certain effects seen in crop formations, like bent or "blown-out" stalks, are consistent with those caused by microwave radiation. I believe there is some discourse around this floating about. I know many have also questioned the studies that went into them. Essentially, some of the crops that create the patterns were not shown to be cut, but rather blown out and bent over at a uniform height. Almost like they were created with a huge magnetron like that found in a microwave. Initially, these effects were thought to have been caused by radiation, but the process was replicated with a magnetron. I have no links to any of this, its out there if you are curious. Just some stuff I have come across.
