Finally, would be someone who knows what to actually ask. First interview Leo was still a child in terms of enlightenment, now they could have a legit convo. -

In the end — it’s all about falling so deeply in love with silence that all the noise of the world and of the mind fades away into nothingness from which it came and we re-awaken to our silent glory forever and ever. You are being very patient with the princess expressing her lack of silence, and without silence there is no wisdom. Good job ☺️🙏 -

How to make love all night - Barbara Keesling in short - do kegels in a specific way and it will allow you to finish 3-5 times in a row without any “rest” period inbetween. It literally takes only a week to see the results. A 1-2 months of daily practice to pretty much master it. Girls go crazy over it, they’ve never seen it in their life. You do have to keep up the schedule though. A huge confidence booster and improves sexual experiences 5x.

Yes, we disagree on what is real and what isn't, but I also see dreams as a tool that the Spirit can use to talk to us in symbols. Although it's just talking to itself - a part of the mind that remembers the truth is trying to re-awaken the part that fell asleep.

Just for fun—as a hypothetical—if you began to believe that this is a dream, exactly like the ones you have at night, would you be glad that it is so, or the opposite? I'm just curious how you'd view it. Personally, I was very excited about this idea. But I also saw other people react negatively to it, so yeah.

Oh, sorry, didn't see this. Yes, he's reading a lot from this chapter: https://acim.org/acim/chapter-18/the-basis-of-the-dream/en/s/220 It's one of my fav, since Jesus says things like: Does not a world that seems quite real arise in dreams? ²Yet think what this world is (ACIM, T-18.II.1:1-2) ⁸You seem to waken, and the dream is gone. ⁹Yet what you fail to recognize is that what caused the dream has not gone with it. ¹⁰Your wish to make another world that is not real remains with you. ¹¹And what you seem to waken to is but another form of this same world you see in dreams. ¹²All your time is spent in dreaming. ¹³Your sleeping and your waking dreams have different forms, and that is all.

@Spiral Wizard Hmm, what I missed in Michaels’ testimony is the idea that we are always choosing between being identified with awareness or with ego. Ego is all about judgement, thinking, resisting, hating. And awareness is incapable of judgement - it merely looks and judges not. Awareness accepts everything and doesn’t try to figure out what’s good or bad or even what life ultimately is. I believe this choice to be identified with awareness is how you get enlightened. edit: actually, maybe he just doesnt call it awareness but surrender? You said he didnt care about how his mind threw tantrums and I think you can only do that when you are outside of the mind in awareness. Anyway, it’s a beautiful testimony. Jesus in ACIM says: What could you not accept, if you but knew that everything that happens, all events, past, present and to come, are gently planned by One Whose only purpose is your good? (ACIM, W-135.18:1) -

Did it some time ago, can conceptualise some of it now. Awakening is not complicated. It simply requires a complete letting go of this dream and all the idols we have made within it. Awakening requires total commitment. The practice of awakening is what every sage talks about - silence and stillness. We stop perpetuating the illusion and it dissolves. At the end of the retreat I experienced this dream dissolving and re-appearing. I know I can make it dissolve forever if I commit. In our unconscious there is a fear of God. This fear surfaces when we reach the deep canyons of our unconscious and gets expressed symbolically in nighttime dreams. Horrific dreams that made me wake up drenched in sweat many times. It’s like ptsd. Had maybe 5 experiences of Heaven. When I say Heaven I mean no body, no mind, no world, just infinite love. Visions of Saint Marry too. Thinking is pain. When I fall into deep meditation - bodily pain disappears. When thoughts return - so does pain. Saw clearly how God arranges the day time dream to allow for me to awaken by providing me with financial resources with minimal effort from my side. Beautiful. Thank you. Sattvic diet is a must. So is light exercise. Yoga helps to sit longer. Sitting meditation is most effective, but I did a lot of walking and laying meditation too. Psychedelics are permissions slips to meet God. They can go wrong if the desire isn’t pure and we go into it with ego as our teacher. Final step does feel like dying, but I did not go through the door of death, only stepped in with one leg and stepped back. Was scary. Books are there just to bring us above concepts and to teach us that this dream is suffering and our purpose is awakening. Everything feels very meaningless, like walking around in a dream. Everyone is constantly blabbering about nothing, as though they will die if they shut up for a minute. Saw how desires confuse the mind. Saw how manifestation is a trap and will work only enough to keep you chasing for more. Like sex and all other idols. That’s how this illusion is set up. Seek and do not find is the name of this game. Noticed the more meditative I become the more attracted I am to white, simple clothing. I think clothing is an expression of who we are. You can glance at someone and know their priorities, their internal world. This post is meaningless. There is no one to share with. -

Yes, definitely; until there's a lot of space between You and the mind, the mind has such a strong magnetic pull toward its seemingly true thoughts. If you engage with only one of them, entertain a single strand of thought - it can unravel into a story lasting minutes, making you forget yourself for that period. I found that that's why long solo retreats work so well, and just living a regular life and trying to awaken on the side doesn't work as well. Remembrance Presence for 30-60 minutes daily is so ineffective at awakening. If you are at home living a regular life and your level of presence is increasing by 1-2% every few months, then it's such an annoying, slow process. But on a solo retreat, you can quickly level up your Silence. You can probably do what someone would do in a lifetime of practice in a 2-3 month retreat. On the other hand, awakening quickly also has drawbacks - it can be very turbulent if unconscious pain surfaces and keeps surfacing for multiple days or weeks in a row. Could you let me know who the teacher is? PM is fine as well. Thank you. -

Yes, but it has nuances. It's mostly about your feelings within your internal world and your identity, as well as how judgmental or forgiving you are. I did notice that my life reflects my inner state and identity, but the state and identity have to be changed from the core, not surface-level change, like affirmations, trying to feel good, repeating positive thoughts, etc. True change and true happiness come from BEING. I believe the optimal way to manifest your dream life is to completely let go of all control and simply effortlessly form, Trusting that all is well because I feel well and this world is just a shadow of my inner state because it's inside of me too. It's my dream. It's inside of my mind. It's a hallucination. I need to feel full and happy and peaceful, and the dream will reflect that state in various symbols within the dream, be it finances, relationships, or many other things. Helpfull::: -

When walking in Silence, every moment of your day could be frozen in a snapshot and a poem written about it. I particularly enjoy the behaviour that eminates from Peace. It’s wise, kind, generous and completly unjudgemental. People intuitively know when you are with God. They are attracted to that Spiritual way of Being. Sainthood is, indeed, in Silence, not in concepts. In the end — every teaching forgotten —spending time in pure wisdom and peace. Doing what I desire every moment of every day. But I do it with Him, thus my actions pure and just. -

You are correct; this universe was designed to perpetuate an endless cycle of suffering. Seeing this, the spiritual student turns inward and searches for a way out. He is amazed that spiritual teachers have agreed on this one thing: life is suffering. Then, they found that this life is a dream, an illusion. It was created to have opposite qualities to those that are in Heaven. Finally, the student learns how to escape from this dream and end all dreaming forever -- by simply being still and silent. -

The 10% false is obviously his vid about infinite gods. It’s not even a discussion, lol. -

Absolute is beyond concepts, indeed, but the concept that life is a solipsistic dream is true and is liberating. -

There is, indeed, only one dream dreamt by one dreamer. Why does our brother not believe, that what he experiences during the shorter periods of images is the same as the longer periods of images? Why must he call one dream unreal and in another dream his purpose in his illusory life is to awaken ghosts that do not exist as soon as he turns away from them? oh silly brother, matters not, our brother is awake, he simply does not know. It’s all a joke. Blessed are we all, as all is One.
