  1. @Vido Thank you for sharing It is a process... all of us at different stages. Grounding and integration is the hardest part, in my opinion, because this is the inner path no one can help you with. We are each a unique amalgamation of biology, social conditioning, psychology, genetics, environment, culture, personal experiences, and the complex interactions between all of these variables over time. This means our path is for us, and us alone, to figure out. Spirituality can give us the pointers. In the end its all on us
  2. Yes - thank you for stating this so well. I understand this. I spoke of something very similar in an interview I partook in recently with @Vido. I experienced a massive internal shift, like two gears clunking into place; a shift into effortlessness in my state of being. Force no longer needed to follow a natural impulse to move and simply let my body express through acting out various tasks. In service to love & connection. A surrender. Discarding all resistance. And with it, all self generated internal suffering. I can agree with your position if we can meet at "discipline is felt as force & friction while we remain separate, and is experienced as suffering" ...maybe separation is the evil It is the difference between being the fire that consumes, uses and is energised by the wind - we can use the wind. As opposed to being pushed around by the wind, resisting and fighting. From effort to Effortlessness. Maybe this resonates...maybe it doesn't. Yes, absolutely. The teacher must be discarded. The teaching must be discarded - else it becomes another ground to attach to, begging to be dissolved. I understand you. Throw it all away... it has been eaten already. I don't post in the spiritual subsection of the forum for this very reason. I like to play a bit more. Seeking has slowed. There doesn't feel like as much to resolve or reconcile. I just like to connect, relate and understand others on a human level now. You, too
  3. Do we have one? Rolling. Post that shit. Shorts, reels, tick-tock turds. Do your worst short format. Boomer cringe. I love the spittle on the guys mouth 🤮🤢 https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS45V1Enf/
  4. Yes - emotions and feelings are linked to our values and preferences. Reason and logic feels like it does the decision making work, but it is not so. Values & preferences steer the car. Direction is supplied by emotions and feelings. This is also why AI is an inert lump, waiting for input, without being supplied by external values or internal inherent programming (which is almost a simulacrum of the emotional guidance system).
  5. Fight me 😈 Hug-to-death challenge!
  6. The UAP disclosure movement is a classic shift in the Overton window - if I am being more charitable (I have a personal strong dislike & feeling of irritation when misinformation and bullshit is deliberate [FU Elizondo]). They can't just shove such a truth like this up the arse of society without furthering the range of ideas and topics that the public and political institutions consider legitimate to discuss.
  7. Have you got any links to support these claims? Specifically what the medical medium info is based on - not medical medium as a source.
  8. What emotions / feelings come up for you? Sympathy, heartbreak, disgust, sadness, pity etc So you feel compelled to action?
  9. Yes - I've been with a human when they pass. It is like watching a no-self awakening in front of you. Real time. All the wonder and awe. All distinction falls away. Only raw sensation remains. Powerful experience. I recommend witnessing for everyone - as macabre as that sounds.
  10. It is more the type of video that would suit the blog (like the old conversational/stream-of-consciousness/rap ones that occasionally populated the blog).
  11. Every scene the Jesus is in from The Big Lebowski. Fucking unhinged cringe feeling.
  12. First! We must polish the surface of the head to a pristine finish, to reflect & intensify the divine rays of light and cleanse all falsehood!
  13. Gonna binge Star Trek + X-men tonight in this gentleman's honour! He gave us the infinity facepalm meme. He gave us joy. I love his silky rich voice. Like cherries and creme brule!
  14. My grandmother is in the early stages of Alzheimer's. It erodes the personality. She doesn't know who myself or my mother are anymore. When we try to care for her, she often becomes adversarial. It is a very sad end. All reason dissolves. A child remains in an adult body with much less emotional regulation than normal.
  15. Isn't this an odd line of reasoning, though? Genuinely appears you are using the limitations of communication as a reason to avoid the responsibilities of communicating. Users are trying to engage with your claims. Trying to understand & question for clarity. But as soon as they do so, you dismiss the medium of language as inadequate? Then you elevate some deeper form of communication (reaching the heart) as above the ordinary requirements of being understood? Language is limited, yes (especially because it is formed by the very distinctions we are trying to escape through spirituality), but that doesn't mean that communication is impossible. Ironically, perhaps the very evil "discipline" you're arguing against is not what is required here: the willingness to stop, listen, understand what's being asked, examine your own thinking and make the effort to articulate/reformulate more precisely is. The absence of discipline is causing a gap in understanding. Moving away from unity, connection, love - the very things we are all trying achieve.

  17. Shits gonna' fuck - Or - Shit better fuck @UnbornTao I know you are about this
  18. @vibv thanks for trying. Repeating the lecture isn't making anything clearer. Just obfuscates further.
  19. Doesn't answer the question. My apologies - I misunderstood. I thought you wanted a contemplative discussion 🙏

  21. NHI - I won't speak to this. UAP - exist. They are extensively tracked by governments & NASA (noting NASA is a government agency, just one many inherently trust more, although they have no reason to). Governments have these craft. Aerial, subsea, or space-based craft that cannot be immediately identified or explained by standard analysis. You need to concentrate on the bolded part when researching.
  22. I think your argument says more about the value system you are attributing to discipline, than anything inherently evil about discipline itself. Why should the impulse that requires the least resistance be considered more authentically you than the value you deliberately choose to live by?
  23. What question explicitly? Do UAP exist? NHI? Are they ours? etc
  24. Do you think he had something to prove, or was defending himself? What was the context prior to his uncalibrated behaviour?
