Nahm

The truth sets us free.

These are beliefs which mask feeling. It feels off to you because it is. If the “fear of hell” were inherent, it’d feel delightful. Notice how ‘hell’ is a catch all for what people didn’t understand or know, and feared...fear, death, the devil, suffering, eternity, fire,etc. Pretty much to be expected in forgetting the true nature & experiencing through twoness-goggles. It’s neither. The guidance of feeling is not a prophet, and makes you nothing. If you say so. The only guidance & already is the true nature, and ‘not them’. ? @allislove

Sounds like a simple enough plan, and I believe it would help, but something doesn’t feel quite right, which is why you made the thread, and you want to know & understand what that something is, yes? Love the new pic btw, lookin great man.

It’s just advice of course, but I’d work unworthiness up the scale. You don’t need knowledge, or anything. You don’t need to be concerned with how people think of you. They feel their thoughts, not you. You feel yours, and this whole experience, this entire place, is for you.

@zeroISinfinity Don’t intellectualize me bruh.

@zeroISinfinity Is this what ‘trending’ is?

When you say ‘my mind’, what is that, other than a thought? When you say ‘serious’, what is separate of you, which One is serious about? When you say ‘intellectual’, what is that other then believing thoughts & thus believing an ‘identity’? Who or what is ‘believing’? What is the feeling of resistance? How is that possible? Without thinking there is an intellect, what is it in terms of perception & feeling? Where is it? When is it? Nice pic btw.

Aware that you’re not aware.

Infinite goodness and infinite goodness does not make for an experience, exactly like you and you is still, you. Infinite goodness forgets that it is infinite goodness, by being reality. This is absolutely innocent, and experience can be no other way. This forgetting is the veil of the finite mind, or, believing thoughts, which is believing there is duality, but is not of the heart, of feeling, of sensation. Thoughts of hatred & evil feel as they do, because of your true nature of infinite goodness. But so far, you’re believing you’re a “person”, on “earth”, “where” there is “balance”. All just thoughts.

And fish are becoming fishy.

@Hanna Luna So sweet! Thanks!

And water is becoming wet.

@EmptyVase Both. A belief is a repeated thought and very shaping of experience.

@RendHeaven ?

To live in paradox is already a misnomer of the duality (thoughts) of life & death, similarly, the dualities of light & dark, body & soul, success & failure are beliefs. The overarching belief is that thoughts have meaning, but it’s smoke & mirrors. Meaning is contingent on belief. To believe ‘north’ has meaning, is to miss it’s a pointing, to ‘not south’. Likewise, ‘south’ points to ‘not north’. Without duality, there is no meaning. In recognition of this, one creates freely, unbound. When believing dualistic thoughts, awareness be-leaving awareness, love be-leaving love, creator be-leaving creatorship.

The highest level of consciousness is what you are in the first place. Look around. You bout to outdo that eh? God. Speed.

It isn’t something that needs dealing with. You’re just believing it is. See why this is so, by letting that content (your original post) go from focus, as it’s served it’s purpose, and go to, feel & express the emotion. Via expression, more clarity and good feeling arises within, and what and where you do want to point that focus is readily, intuitively, seen. Or don’t. What you think about and focus on isn’t really my business. There are no words I could say which could speak more intimately to you than the very suffering you are creating, by what & how you are focusing on.

Still doesn’t.

You keep eating spicy foods, you keep feeling indigestion. You choose how your stomach feels over what you put in your mouth, no more indigestion. You keep focusing on thoughts & things that don’t feel good, you keep suffering. You choose to put how you feel first, over what you believe & think, no more suffering. If what you want is emotional mastery & freedom, and to create the life of your desires & dreams, you understand how you’re creating emotions, practice, learn, experience, and create joy, empowerment, & freedom.

Yes, no longer believing thoughts.

Not knowing is not knowing. Mood is not separate of you, and thus there is no potential for mood to influence you. You’re aware of mood. Mood is never aware of you. Other people use the emotional scale and change their mood at will. Effortlessly. You’re awareness of the depression. The depression is not aware of you. You can not therefore be in a depressive state. Only if you misinterpret excitement, and are unwilling to be open minded enough to understand how you are. Recognize you’re doing precisely what you want to. Foolish not to enjoy doing what you want to. Attractive, on enjoying doing what they want to.

It does take experience and some contemplation, and some feeling & experiencing of those reactions and impulses and ‘sitting with it’ to see that it passes, and is therefore recognized to not actually be a need, and in your communication with her you are not coming from frustration. That would only add to the stress. There is also the “swinging the pendulum too far the other way”, which also takes some experience to feel, grasp, and balance. I think you’re pickin up what I’m layin down. For a couple, a relationship, it’s about that balance as you mentioned. I would certainly encourage expressing how you feel, just letting the reaction pass first. It helps to have a “chill spot”. Somewhere you go, un-disturbed, so you can process the reactions without engaging her and later (after the reaction has passed) regretting it. Even if how you feel is basically “you’re basically just for sex to me, I don’t care to deepen the relationship here”...express that sincerely. If how you feel is that you do desire to deepen the relationship, then expressing that you want more of you guys letting go of what doesn’t resonate (essentially the opposite of what stress is) and more enjoying each other and your time intimately, is what you want. Notice, very importantly, that stress doesn’t feel good to anyone. You & her both want to feel good, and not be stressed. With conversations in this regard, crazy as it might sound today, again, she very well may feel more comfortable in feeling that she isn’t just sex to you, and as such, might just look to sex with you sometimes as an activity in which she can de-stress. You might also keep in mind, and employ or suggest with her, intimacy that isn’t sex. Physical contact is very comforting and healing by nature. Simple stuff like giving each other massages, a back rub, etc. Ask her what she likes, what helps her take her mind of things and let go and relax. For some woman it’s foot rub, for some a back rub, for some hand rubs. Whatever. Might seem ‘odd’ to you, but the point (if it is your intention) is deepening the relationship, knowing what she likes. It goes both ways.

Cause it’s not a thing, and because there is much to express in you. Love is no thing. All “things” are apparent, and of the apparent continuum, in the sense “reality”. All things share that the more you give away, the less of that thing, you have. No thing is the opposite. Give it away! Give it away! Give it away! You only ‘have’, ‘know’, ‘feel’ more. I’m speculating, but perhaps ‘race’ is not meant like a competition, like race cars, but in the sense ‘human’ race, that we are not a human race, but the race of love, that is love. Love is all there is. There can’t be a lack of all there is. Paradoxically perhaps, what the world could use most, is the love that the world is. This is due to the simple fact that infinite can not know finite. In love terms, there is no finite, only the belief that there is, similarly, there is no lack of love, only the belief that there is. There is no “more love”, there is “the fall”, or, “the fallout”. For infinite being, which is unconditional love, to experience, infinite being must be that very experience, and thus infinite being ‘forgets’ it’s own infinitude, of and as love. There isn’t. It’s an appearance of the light & love that (eternally, infinitely) is. While someone is collecting shoelaces, someone else is building nuclear bombs. I take “silliness” to mean nonsense. That which does not resonate with the true nature. The song “Royals” by Lord comes to mind. “We’ll never be royals. It don’t run in our blood. That kind of lux just ain’t for us, we crave a different kind of buzz. Let me ? be your ruler, you can call me queen b, and I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule...let me live that fantasy.” Jesus used the word “me” in the same way, pointing to the true “me”, the true nature. To me, this points to the end of the hierarchy of the race, the “royals” and the “peasants”, and us all living the ‘real’ fantasy, a world awakened to the true nature of the world.
