Holding no possibility that your experience should be any different from what it is now provides a deep sense of presence and vitality. It allows for complete engagement because the present moment is embraced rather than resisted, even if subtly. Conversely, believing that your experience should be some other way than it is now creates friction, which tends to increase the likelihood of suffering since, by definition, a desired experience isn't presently occurring for you. In this way, your relationship with the present moment is one of lack.

Deep insight requires that you let go of your current knowledge.

I guess one of the first components is finding someone who is aligned with your top values, whom you deem as trustworthy, and who is willing to engage in such an undertaking. Of course, you also need to communicate your intent to do so. Besides that, it is up to you to start creating it. Once you have gotten across your desire to the other person, figure out together what deepening the relationship would entail. For example, setting common pursuits and goals and encouraging each other in those is a positive step. A commitment to honesty is another essential aspect.

Weird stuff such as this has nothing to do with spirituality. You could contemplate an emotion, perhaps starting with the boredom in front of you. What is it? What is its function? How does it come about? -

Thanks for that, appreciate it. Enjoy!

One thing is what you "say" (think, believe, intellectualize, speak about), and another is what you actually experience, live as, and do. Notice the discrepancies between these two.
