Life lessons from Helen Keller 1. Go after your dreams. Helen Keller did not believe in living life timidly or in being “realistic.” Keller believed that if you truly want to be happy and live an exciting life you would need to go after your dreams, which by default could not be realistic – otherwise, it wouldn’t be a dream. She believed that anything great that has ever been done, had to be different and defy odds…which makes it unrealistic and uncommon. She saw being “realistic” as a way of conforming to what society wants you to be. 2. You must have a vision for yourself. Keller once said, “It’s a terrible thing to see, and have no vision!”. Keller believed that we need to have a direction and a grand vision for ourselves. It’s important to envision the future and imagine who we want to be, where we want to go and what kind of life we want to lead. If we can see it in our mind, we can hold it in our hand. 3. Nothing is impossible. Helen Keller believed that people can accomplish anything if they stick to it long enough. She encouraged ALL people to stay committed to their dream until it works out. And, even if it doesn’t work out, the process of sticking with it will have taught us so much that we are now able to go and accomplish something else. 4. Experience is the best teacher. Helen Keller thought that “Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. Reading, listening, and watching is great, but nothing can substitute the power of experience. Life teaches lessons and life teaches with experience. Great experiences bring powerful understandings. And, all experiences become great, when you look for the meaning in them. 5. Focus on the positive. Helen Keller knew that everyone was fighting their own battle. Everyone’s battle is different, but everyone has one. Regardless of your situation, it’s important that we focus on the positives because that gives us the energy to keep fighting. Yes, the world is full of negativity, pain, and tragedy. But, it’s also full of people who are fighting against it! 6. Surround yourself with winners. Helen Keller once said, “While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.” It’s simple, winners hang out with winners. Don’t waste your time hanging around people who gossip, criticize, complain and condemn. Of course, we all have our moments when we are leading the charge of negativity, but that’s all the more reason to surround ourselves with winners who can help pick us up when we’re down. 7. Your future is in your hands. Keller once said that “What I am looking for is not “out there,” it is in me. You have been given everything you need to win. You have the same fundamental tools as the legends in history. Now, what you do with them is up to. Greatness and success are yours for the taking! ??

You’re missin the point my man. You’ve no direct experience of how anyone but yourself views the world. The “view of other people”...is actually still your view. “If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it. Anything you want to, do it. Want to change the world? There's nothing to it.” - Leslie Bricusse, Anthony Newley ”Most people experience being a limited selfish creature. That creates a huge problem for us. All this clearly shows a God who doesn't care at all. A pure psychopath.” - SQAAD

@seeking_brilliance ? Nothing!

So beautiful.

Missing out on life is a thought, not a feeling. It doesn’t resonate with feeling, because feeling is life, or, aliveness if you will. It’s infinite, so no chance of missing out on it. It’s like me and you are hanging out and I say “man...I’m really missing out on you”. You’d be like, “dude, what are you even talking about, I’m right here with you.” And I’d be like, “oh yeah”. Then we’d laugh together I imagine. Let that thought go...and pick a thought that does feel good to you...well, that’ll make a lot of sense. That’s what life is for.

Without labeling. ?

The one lifetime.

And this = meditation.

Hilarious typo. All is let go in meditation. (Levels, maps, etc)

What’s being noticed is a lot of thoughts arise. That is completely fine. There was a time when you were not orienting home, or, inward. And now you are. So this is a / the time where you are, and are noticing a lot of thoughts about feeling. That is really great. Nothing need be thought about it, like it’s progress, good, bad, right, wrong, etc. Maybe tomorrow you self inquire again, and there’s a bit less thoughts about feeling, and a pinch more feeling. That’s also great. Maybe next day, even more so. Enjoy the ride. ☺️

Beautiful ??.

@Endangered-EGO What do the instructions say in this regard? Please don’t take that as ‘blow off’, but a pointing to the usefulness of scrutinizing.

@Muhammad Jawad The flesh of mushrooms is mildly toxic and throws the whole trip off. Make tea instead. Just advice...3 - 4g is the no-go zone. Enough thought attachment is dissolved to recognize it seemed it was ‘there’, but not enough to fully see through identity & perception. The two punch combo is the ‘physical’ ‘toxicity’, and psychosomatic ‘I can not digest what is seen’ (not ‘fully seen’ due to the no-go zone).

Self Inquire.

Is this space awareness, or is there an I which is aware of this space?

Great video in regard to communicating the actuality of some mental health issues and the importance of nutrition. Not so great on communicating historical spirituality, at least in regard to Buddhism. Siddhartha was not not trying to become enlightened, but trying to see if there is cessation to suffering. I do not believe Siddhartha would have been put in a psych ward, because he did not say he was God, or that there is a God. He was not viewership minded, quite the opposite, at least in the one sense.

The identification is with the thought, that there is a you in time, from a few weeks ago. Notice self referential thoughts, and see that they come & go.

This is used as a write off of noninspection, monkey mind, thought attachment. Debating would just be more of this. The Jesus inquiry is more of the same outward thought attachment movement. The intention is viewership...and it’s working. It is all indeed completely made up.

If only you exist, as stated...who or what is there a disagreement with? There is a solipsistic lens at play.

@JohnD Maybe there’s something you’d like to just...say?

@JohnD You find this direct experience unrelatable? What don’t you get, so to speak?

???

@JohnD Sweetly, in a googly manor. Arguably, this is the greatest joy in the universe. It is ineffable magic, which makes all things worthwhile, and all things possible. But only direct experience will do.

Spend some time watching thoughts come & go. Thought only rises here, now. “I” is a thought. Attachment to that thought functions like a bridge to the next thought, “am neurotic”. Neither thought actually says anything of the awareness, of the thoughts. Believing it does, feels off. Another thought arises, which seems to label that feeling, “fear”.

@UDT “I CAN NOT get over this” “I” is a thought, that points back to awareness of the thought. So ‘I can not get over this’, is the ‘clue’ sought after.
