@Vzdoh It’s kinda your place in this sense. You’re free to ask whoever you want to move in with you. Curious, how is his wealth relevant (mentioned again)?

Just add “art” after whatever, in objectifying there is no accountability. Super easy. Was today years old when I learned pua is an acronym for pick up artist. ?

@Thought Art The mistake is conceptualization vs actuality, pointing ineffable vs claimed, known. The relevance is, who’s ‘mistake’?

@HereToLearn Attempt to point to ‘somebody’ and ‘dies’. Where, what is, what you’re talking about? Heaven.

Tackling is for the opposing team in a game of football. Meditation is without opposition. (But thought makes it so). Pushy and stubborn are self referential thoughts, like a mirror is not hair. You are not these, which is precisely why these thoughts feel as they do, and you’re lookin for peace. What is an ego you never heard of?

Samadhi is never a thing or scene of perception, but the absence of. Samadhi is not that brand of shocking. That’s judgement.

Proper meditation is the key. There is not a you being or remaining present. Meditation eases and naturally drops the suffering, which is the duality via believing the thoughts in regard to all the claiming. When focus and goals aren’t clung to as yours, beauty & presence are clearly you, and all experience is the icing on you-cake, and all apparent unfolding now is a mysterious miracle. No ‘you in a past’ or ‘you in a future’ or ‘you being improved’ or ‘you being helped’ confusion. Transversing traps (concepts) isn’t realizing no trap, it’s a still yet lingering ‘what I should be’, the same “I” which meditates, but no one every has, will or could, meditate.

The path of trust is communication.

That isn’t really projection or actuality, it’s the belief in assertion. Some people just are arrogant, and will always be. It works for them, and that’s all they care about, the matrix of ‘themself’.. The ‘error’ is overriding of ‘one’s own’ source & intuitive seeing, with the (projection) belief they care. It’s like projecting onto Donald Trump that somewhere deep under that ignorance there is care. It’s entirely possible to desire them to care, to be authentic, such that the mind refutes what it sees as obvious. If you don’t ‘should on’, there is no discord. Simply allow obviousness to be seen. Recognize & accept what ‘the third eye’ sees, or, let your colleague simply be, your colleague. You be you.

“Egoic mind” is one thought. There is no such thing as an egoic mind. That is the sneakiness at play. There is no time, that is also conceptual, so not only is there no egoic mind, there is no possibility of it ‘catching up’. This is all self-trickery. Scrutinize a bit more… is ‘we practice oneness’ an actual possibility? “At this” dontes an experience and someone separate of it - can experience be permanent, or is permanent a thought? Affirmations can be great for sure. Also, ultimately this is dualistic. Like a light socket can be used to illuminate, or electrify. It’s in how one implements. Affirmations can uplift and inspire, and can also subversively unknowingly suppress. It seems as if there is, or could be, a correct consensus of such ‘things’, but yet more akin of direct experience, in your life so to speak, there is a season for everything. There is a day for a band aid, and there is a day for shadow work, and there is a day of realization there are no band aids, and there is no shadow. There is a realization of finite mind projection, there is a realization of infinite mind projection, there is a realization of finite mind hijacking infinite mind projection with finite mind projection lol, and there is a realization there isn’t projection.

By realizing this isn’t something to ‘deal with’, but something you’re creating… because there is no such actuality to that narrative. Escapism & avoidance aren’t feelings, they’re thoughts, which do not feel good. In regard to the guidance of pain, such as touching a hot stove, the apparent reaction of the body in removing the hand from the stove, is intelligence. In regard to the guidance of feeling, the mind’s averting or aversion, or, ‘moving away from’ emotion, or, feeling, is the mind seeking better feeling, by innocently & ignorantly ‘moving away’ from it’s source, from the very substance the thought ‘my mind’ is made of, from the very “feeling” ultimately sought. When it honestly, wholeheartedly surely seems that ‘big picture’ is the biggest picture - and yet intuitively feeling ‘says’ no, no, there is much, much more to this… consider there might be a much much bigger picture. Maps & Traps. An adventure which can’t be thought, believed or imagined, yet is actual. It’s seems like those thoughts are things, and so the ‘running’ is not from feeling, while feeling is ‘letting you know’ those are thoughts, not things. Reality = abundance. In shedding the layers of labeling, the ‘greater adventure’ of consciously co-creating will shock you to your core with it’s Goodness and actuality. Perhaps the very first step is the inner admittance… this is not ‘how it is’ nor ‘how I am’… this is how I’ve been saying ‘it is’, and ‘how I am’. Reality has been, is and will continue to ‘become’ precisely as you’re focused. Just how precise this is, is absolutely mind boggling in the greatest possible way. A “text” is not even a text. Nothing is “random”. When this ‘clicks’ and it is realized you create your reality of mind, as all is mind, you will shit happiness.

@mandyjw Holy spot on meme! Brought to mind… bread never comes out of a toaster, only the toaster is the toasted.

@sara373 Yes, actual infinite emptiness. Silence without an end. Much more than literal or could be pointed to with dualistic languages. ‘No thoughts of yourself’ isn’t instructional, it’s a pointing to thought attachment & actual innocence, in the sense, ‘your’ real Home, which is not this place. Meditation will indeed bring up many questions, and much expression. For the sake of clarity, there is no suggestion here of suppressing either, but of expressing and finding out the answers to every possible question which arises. Which is not at all to say discordantly, existentially, ruminating. You might say the adventure of finding out, vs thinking about ‘myself’ and or a ‘reality’.

@actualizing25 Do you mean ‘aren’t concerned with enlightenment’, or were interested, are enlightenment, and thus are aware of the linguistic barrier and the misunderstanding implied in the claiming of, in your regard? What if ‘those whose lower needs are not fully met’ are gravitating toward not actual enlightenment, like the folks you mention, who are happiness, abundance, and prosperity, but to an impression of, via people who claim it as their own? (Seeing an impression of enlightenment as a solution or resolve, an ‘if I could be like them I’d be x, y, z, happy, etc) Are you seeing the con in the con-fusion of this? (At your own end so to speak) What is a ‘these people’ you speak of? God see’s only God, ego see’s only ego. Infinite can not know finite.

@SQAAD What exactly was so discordant?

@Mjolnir Meditation slows down the labeling process which essentially has been hijacking depth of feeling under the mind’s radar. Think of an actor in a movie expressing feeling based on lines, scenes, & other actors’ roles, and then beginning to realize-feel what they’ve been calling their emotions is actually the infinite screen appearing as the movie, scenes, and actors.

@4201 In case it wasn’t noticed, that was a copy of the op, with a slight change to ‘separate self’ noting identification with thoughts. I hear ya though, identification is identification. ‘The separate self’ really is just the activity of identification wether me, him, her, self, no self, God or a toaster.

Understanding The Immutable Laws is quite helpful imo, for beginning to see all is divinity, and there are ‘workings’ & ‘ways’ which are unseen (‘third eye’ stuff). Specifically The Law of Attraction. This can bring much understanding to why you feel how you feel, and why your life is going as it is. Other than meditation…yoga’s, trips, acceptance, apologies, forgiveness… and this is a list more or less of just a few of the activities & experiences to be had which are known to bloom & rekindle divinity & creativity. Understanding and employing of the emotional scale could be said to be critical, specifically the distinction between self referential thoughts, and emotion experienced. This is discovering divinity by uncovering divinity. Contemplation, as a means of going prior and directly experiencing communion, or communication with being, can be most insightful and most often leads to self-realization, or communication as being. The Ten Of-Herding Pics of Zen are a great path overview.

It’s still on the page. Maybe you have a question, or something specific I could elaborate on…?

@Flowerfaeiry I didn’t say they are not to be consumed by humans.

Might be insightful, and not necessarily nonsense, but there aren’t ‘sorts’ of Truth. The Truth is absolutely unmistakable. There would be no question of validation whatsoever.

@OneIntoOne Animals eat plants. Plants create defenses from an evolutionary standpoint. A deer eats a marijuana plant, and then feels confused, lethargic, maybe a little paranoia. That deer is far less likely to eat that plant again. There might be conflicting factors between the effects of the plant… and focus in contemplating. The body is likely responding to this confusion with adrenaline & accelerated heart beat, or the ‘fight or flight’ response. The “bodymind” is responding as infinite intelligence, but the experience is being interpreted through a lens of a separate self (my mind, I’m going crazy, fear of death, etc) “Is this normal & is this dangerous?” Up to you. There isn’t an objective, absolute or ultimately conclusive “normal” or “danger”. It’s probably a safe bet that in simple terms, you’re just high and can breathe & chillax.

As @cetus once mentioned, the human experienced ‘effects’ of marijuana are of the plants evolutionary defensive mechanism, to confuse and thus discourage potential eaters of the plants. (From Maps & Traps) In regard to the guidance of feeling, the mind’s averting or aversion, or, ‘moving away from’ emotion, or, feeling, is the mind seeking better feeling, by innocently & ignorantly ‘moving away’ from it’s source, from the very substance the thought ‘my mind’ is made of, from the very “feeling” ultimately sought.

When it clicks you gonna be happiness. (Or, self-happiness rather, that which is already the actuality) “What is the ego?” ??? What Is a Self Referential Thought. (That’s not a typo! There is no question mark there!) “What”…. IS… a self referential thought. “Your ego” lol! Freakin adorable.

@roopepa Yes, and thanks!
