Sincerity

Reacted to, or simply experienced and expressed rage? There’s nothing wrong with rage. I scream at the top of my lungs sometimes.

There would certainly arise a TON of emotion. Probably reactivity too, yes. I never said this system is beyond it. Though it has been visibly making progress in that department.

Yeah. To clarify: things just arise. There’s not even „letting them be”. Since there’s no one/nothing to let things be.

Good question. I’d say it’s either engrossment in or dissociation from what arises. Both unconscious habits of the mind. When a thought/feeling arises, you can get lost in it (engrossment, fantasizing, etc.) or dissociate from it (wanting to block it off, not feel it, distract from it, feels like „too much”). Or: you can just let it be, acknowledge it, love it. That’s non-reactivity.

That’s emotion. Not necessarily reactivity.

Good. I agree reactivity is highly connected to self-identification. Angelo Dilullo has good videos on this.

So you mean reactivity. Reacting to a thought/feeling - through e.g. lashing out, or dissociation (closing off). Correct?

What’s the difference between an emotion and an emotional trigger?

It’s like Consciousness is freed up and you feel the Infinitude. It’s clear, raw, empty, mysterious, magical. It’s God. For me it usually feels like all air was sucked out of the room. Everything is very direct. It’s all Consciousness. There’s no distance to it - it’s just it.

Okay. You gave as an example „crossing a threshold from not-awake to Awake”, so I thought simple would suffice.

Like Mind dropping its constraints. Like Mind being freed up.

I appreciate your perspective.

Thanks for sharing!

Just to satisfy your curiosity, I’ll respond. 😛 In the last half a year: Yes, yes, yes and no. I was living with my ex until the end of April, then moved places. But I think the changes happening here go way beyond the factors you listed. But that’s irrelevant to the thread - it’s not about me.

Oooo wow! That’s very cool! You should make a thread about it, or share more here! I’m interested.
