@electroBeam Awareness is always there, it is you, its the presence. There is nothing behind YOU and IT because YOU are IT. Always have been. EGO = overstimulated nervous system You can imagine awareness being this vast sea of bliss and presence. At the same time there is this little "ball of emotions and thoughts and sensations" screaming HEEY YO LOOK AT ME! HERE! THERE'S LOADS OF SHIT GOING ON! HEY! ME! MMEEEE!! LALALAL DADADADADAD MEE MEE MEMEM MEE TOODLE DOODLE POOPY DOO So awareness is like. WOaaah. Look! There is so much interesting shit going on!!!!! Emotions, thoughts, sensations.... SO COOL! Let me identify with that so I can get to know it better! So you go and you calm down the nervous system. That is why I love shadow-work. Because until you do enough of clearing out your negative beliefs, and your emotions and recations calm down, you, as a body/mind complex will literally stop being that interesting to awareness, and you will in a sense explode into open space realizing that you have never been that interesting ball of attention seeking sensations!

@Shin Is your signature linked to my playlist? Omg I feel so cool hahaha =D nice dude

@Salaam yo homie im not free of personal bias who told you that? Lol There is a misunderstanding and I dont feel like continuing this debate will beat any fruits.

@Salaam sorry I cannot take your point as valid. You are extremely biased. However let me expand on one point. Self-love doesn't equal service to self. Self love is the beginning process of developing love for all there is. You don't appreciate the possibility of how emptied of one's personal bias one can be, so they can act accordingly on every situation for the wellbeing of all. I understand that it is difficult especially when having gone through a challenge such as you described. However the most loving thing you could do is to get over yourself. It will happen eventually. This isn't naive this is very real. The problem is we don't have many people who had been emptied of personal bias enough. I can right now think of Gandhi or Jesus. Study those individuals to truly understand what absolute service to others endulges, if you wish to do so.

@JustinS Wait what the fuck =D You eat for breakfast "6 ripe bananas" ? With the portion you described you could end the world hunger! =D

Careful with that. What Jung mostly meant is the necessity of waking up of the unconsciousness and integration of your shadow. The time humanity on a collective level needed darkness, is long time overdue. Now it's just senseless left-overs, where no-one really wants it anymore, everyone sees its total BS, but we just don't wanna give up our toys like children who have outgrown their barbie-houses years ago. So brace yourself! Humanity is about to integrate its Shadow. Be thankful for Trump, he is the man to create a platform for that! But don't wait in passive lotus pose meditating saying "all is well" mantras and other bullshit. Integrate your own shadow. Match up the image humanity is about to jump into ahead of its time, and you will be of great service to millions every time you integrate yet another part of your unconscious. Also you will become a leader for the new world order. Don't let this sound egotistical. It will be a loving place, it will be a compassionate teaching, it will be love and beauty harmony and joy for the wellbeing of all. And don't let for a second a doubt exist in your mind that this isn't your destiny! You would not be present at this time if it wasn't!

@Bodhi123 the post above.

In the Law of one there is an explanation that makes a lot of sense. Good vs. evil = Entities oriented in service to others vs. Entities oriented in service to self. From the point of view of nonduality, the one, they are both eqauly important expressions of infinity and neither of them is prefered. However! Service to others is a more efficient way of approaching existence. Why? Because when you are service to self oriented, all other entities are seen just as mere extension of yourself. This is in a sense narcissistic view of enlightenment, which isn't wrong per se, it is just a different approach, one that lacks empathy and love isn't bursting from you into space, but it is oriented towards you and only you, not hesitating to use others in order to get your desires met. On the other hand, service to others oriented entities are having the advantage of cooperation and mirroring. They see themselves in others, not from a point of view o a narcissist, but as a mirror, and can consciously act as a mirror to others, bringing more balance, more well-being, more love and more compassion, inherently working towards creating a civilisation of very warm loving beautiful goodness. The conflict of good vs. evil is really just a game that both agree on playing, they are both part of the same consciousness, just exploring different approaches of exploring and expressing infinity. The tricky part comes in where the service-to-others oriented ones "fight" against evil. They can never "fight" against them in the manner of hate or inferiority, or anger, because whenever they approach the interaction with anything BUT love, understanding and compassion they polarize themselves to the other side of the spectrum which is SERVICE TO SELF. So in that sense, service to self would win. There is good and evil. Both are equally valid, both are beautiful, both are miraculous phenomena in existence. The question is... Are you strong enough not to fall prey to the temptations of the darkside Young Padawan?! <3

@Bodhi123 yes. More Matt on this forum will be beautiful.

Hahaha ikr funny.

@Loreena Burst into action. Therapy, coaching, friends, family, spiritual teachers. Allow yourself to open up through the grace of others.

@STC If you raise your consciousness you become a beacon and are automatically uplifting everyone who comes into contact with you by eminating love and light. No matter if you fuck them, talk to them, just walk past them or hug them. Any type of interaction will become your spiritual teaching.

@STC I havent meditated for days on end, that is if define meditation by sitting in silence. Yet I am growing faster and faster accelerating every second becoming more loving extatic grounded divine shining. Meditation isnt king. You are. We are. You only meditate when you dont really believe you are king.

@Deep consciousness indeed does divide itself. And yes it is an illusion. The one infinity, being infinite, cannnot ever be added onto or taken anything from it. So it divided itself so it can experience itself in seemingly finite forms. Is it an illusion from infinity's perspective? yes Is it an illusion from your pov? From your pov what even is an illusion? Illusion is an illusion. Experience is an experience. Were they the same thing there wouldnt be 2 different words.

@Sage_Elias Also high degrees of freedom will most likely bring high desire for service to others .At times your emotional body can use sex as means of transmuting energy into others for healing and freeing other beings into preferable parallel realities. That of course cannot be mistaken for the animalistic drive for sex in order to look for completion due to guilt and other baggage imposed in the form of conditioning onto your physical body.

@Sage_Elias By the way if you wanna become a "sage" I dont know what that implies to you, but to me it implies absolute freedom in one's choices and actions. Sex in and of itself cannot take away your freedom. Rigid celibacy can though. If it is celibacy based on your "freedom" and it is a willing choice, then of course will only enhance your state of freedom. It can also be that in some sstage of your freedom celibacy will be perfect, and at then you will move into a new domain of freedom where you will just wanna fuck the shit out of everything due to your willingness for human connection.

@Sage_Elias Addiction is in essence just an illusion. There is the energetical cause behind it, it is not even a cause, rather your own willingness to step out of your freedom. So choose freedom, and embrace whatever facet of life you deem desireable.

@Snick

@jse Empathy, in the common language as it is perceived, is the projection of our inner child onto others allowing healing. SO in essence it is love, only misunderstood, and the direction is needed inward not outward.

@zazed yeah... we're addicted to doing and being productive. and that's fine, just love the one who's addicted! Say to him a big I love you over and over! And her is a big I love you from my behalf. I love you!!!!!

@zazed yeah Just saying I didnt finish the book. I got all thr value I needed just from first 50 pages and then it list its relevance for me haha. I wanted to only point out that whenever we feel discomfort we are presented with a choice. We can love it, or we can do everything else. U dont have to love the feeling btw. Just love the one who feels it. The feeling will be transmuted naturally

In the book of not knowing Peter Ralston mentions that boredom is just an existential insecurity. So investigate and love the feeling. After all, it is an emotion just like sadness.

@Arkandeus "The Heart centered spiritual path, is the most direct one" - Matt Kahn

@jse depends on how you define empathy. There certainly is no uniting quality to the fact that I cry when you suffer. I'd suggest compassion and love, to make terminology clear.

@Heart of Space What I have experienced is irrelevant. However what should happen on the journey is from love being selective, coming from "lower, selfish" needs, grow into unconditional love of all.
