Matthew85

@Leo Gura Do you have any suggestions on how we can feel and know ourselves as God more in our day to day life?

@The0Self I agree. I have worked with many different practices over the years in my desire for truth and awakening. The best way I can describe it, is this Matthew personality I have created as a focusing mechanism to have this human experience severely limits my consciousness. It would need to expand or evolve to be able to contain more of my vast consciousness. I am looking for a practice that will help with this specifically.

@puporing It feels more like the personality I am adopting limits and constricts the tremendous expansiveness of my consciousness. This is what needs to evolve or expand to hold more of who I truly am. Good suggestion. I do a lot of this daily.

@puporing Thank you. It doesn't always feel like a conscious choice though. I want to find a way to sustain the empowered states I access. I am sure there is a way to do this.

@RendHeaven So far that hasn't helped me achieve my goal.

@Leo Gura I love you Leo, but this isn't very satisfying. If there is no difference or preference in anything, then what determines why we create one experience over another?

@Vincent S How do we deepen our understanding of how and from what level we are creating it? We seem to have divided our consciousness into layers or levels that are difficult to access. Like the example I posted above about our nightly dreams. That is just one layer or level we are imagining and immersing ourselves into, but we have no idea how we are doing it. Most of the time in our dreams, we are just along for the ride of whatever the narrative is. It's likes it's all happening on autopilot. Thank you for the tip. I also get good insights from my dreams sometimes, but the symbology isn't always easy to interpret and understand.

@Leo Gura I hope at some point you attempt to. Is it something our human finite minds are not capable of comprehending? And also, out of infinite choices of what you could imagine, why are you creating Leo with his particular challenges, interests and desires?

@Leo Gura Yes, you have, but always in very general terms. Your content is fantastic and so unique in that no else is even discussing these concepts. What I am deeply fascinated by and want to deepen my understanding of is the process of how and from what level we are imagining reality? The details of the process. For instance, when you had the insight that you are creating every hair on your arm, were you able to explore and get insight into the details of how you are actually doing it? Recently I have been studying Roberts Lanza's work. He has some very interesting theories about how consciousness is collapsing probabilities in an infinite field of infinite probabilities. Every possible probability exists in this field and depending on how our consciousness interacts with it determines the reality you experience. But even if there is some truth to his theory, he has no idea how this process is happening. Lets use the analogy of our sleeping dreams which is a good model for reality. Every night we fall into our "dream realties" full of people places, cities and all types of different experiences. Except for the rare occasional lucid dream, you fall into the narrative of your dream landscape and dream personality character. Somehow you are constructing all of it, but you have no idea how you are doing it. Leo, have you explored the process of how our sleeping dreams are being created while in very expanded states? This is obviously a different layer and depth of imagination than our waking reality, but understanding this process could give us insights that could apply to our waking dream. My feeling is with something like 5-Meo it elevates your consciousness so high it may not be effective for understanding the details of these process's. It seems most effective for giving a very broad big picture zoomed out view of reality. Perhaps I am wrong. Have you been able to probe and get more details into the process of how you are actually imagining your body and reality while on 5-Meo? The process of how you are doing it? And out of infinite choices of what you could imagine, why are you creating Leo with his particular challenges, interests and desires? You only ever speak about it in general terms. Maybe it's the challenge of bringing the insights from such and expanded state down into language that can be understood.

@Leo Gura Leo, do you plan to expand on this concept in the future teachings? There is tremendous depth to be explored and understood around this. Without a much deeper detailed understanding of this process, speaking in generalities about this doesn't really offer much benefit to life.

@integration journey Sounds deeply profound. I would love to hear more details if you feel like sharing.

@Gabith Yes, that is one aspect of mastering our state, but it encompasses so much more. In every now moment we embody a dominant state. That state determines your experience of life. If you want to change your life, you have to change the dominant states you embody.

@r0ckyreed To achieve mastery over my state. State is everything. This is foundational to everything else.

@Leo Gura Will you please expand on the paradoxical nature of this truth?

@Vibroverse Sometimes it is easier for us to hear something when it appears to come from "another" even though it's still coming from you.

@AlterEgo Yes I have. I love Neville. He is a fascinating man. If you enjoy his teachings, you should look into Ernest Holmes.

@lisindel Keep working on expanding your consciousness. As your awareness expands and you realize you are eternal and others are you, your judgment's naturally begin to fall away. It's actually not possible to waste time.

@JuliusCaesar Thanks buddy! What I am most interested in understanding further is the different layers of imagination. It appears that most of the time on psychedelics people are not accessing the deepest levels of imagination. If they were, it would affect more than only themselves. Either that or this waking dream is a consensus created reality.

@JuliusCaesar Well you are right, it is an assumption. I am basing it on all the videos of people tripping and group trips where people are having all these wild vivid experiences but it's only happening for them. It never seems to affect anyone else or change anything in this reality. If you have read or seen examples where it did, I would love to see or read about them. DM me. Thanks!

@Vynce Yes, I am sure this is possible. I have experienced something similar. They weren't memories though, it was things people were actively doing. For example, one time I was meditating and I began thinking of a friend and suddenly I felt myself riding a jet ski very fast on the water. When I checked with them later, I found out they were at a lake riding jet skis at the exact time I was meditating. I have had many experiences like this that I was able to confirm, so I'm sure memories are accessible too.

@Razard86 Thank you! I have read both. I will check out Tania's website. You may want to look into Frederick Dodson's work. I had some amazing results from applying his teachings. Life becomes a lot more magical and fun when you learn to consciously create. It's like lucid dreaming in waking life.

@JuliusCaesar That is very interesting and worth researching further. There is so much we don't understand about the different levels of consciousness and how and why it imagines one scenario over another. Also, why is it that during all of these trips nothing ever changes for the other people in this reality? Leo has briefly talked about different levels of imagination, but still, some of these people seem to be accessing a pretty deep level and it never affects anything here.

I recently read about someone who spent a lifetime as a little mushroom on a tree in a forest from a salvia trip. It's some wild sh#t. Not for me.

@Valach Jealousy or possessiveness is usually rooted in our self concept, "how we feel about our self" and fear of loss.

@Ya know I am not sure this quote is the best metaphor to model. You are human not a flower or a tree. I think what they are pointing to is aligning your ego mind with your higher mind and following what inspiration arises. When you do this you are acting in harmony with the flow of the universe.
