@roopepa Me too.

@Raptorsin7 Life (suffering) is teaching you. You’re not listening, you’re thinking / talking. Always up to you. Listen to it, and be the answer to it. Let it help you see who you really are, what you’re really made of. Rise to the challenges without expectation. Counterintuitive maybe for now, but you will feel amazing. ?

Not true. It’s something you’re doing right now. You are not ‘parts’. It feels incredibly untrue, but you’re doing / saying it once again, anyways. If you’re aware you’re saying that - then who are you talking about?! The “other you”? Then don’t read it. And don’t internalize it. You’ve never once (and never will) experience what anyone else is thinking. What you’re experiencing is the perspective you are choosing. Not someone else’s. Get a job? You could stop telling the story about yourself which feels terrible, because and only because, it feels terrible. “I’m a million miles away from what I want”. And so it is. “I’m writing what I am wanting on my dreamboard, and letting go of all the ‘how’ thinking, and just doing anything and everything that feels good to me, and letting go, and receiving what I have written on my dreamboard”. And so it is.

Just a different perspective. Like a buffet, take only what resonates usefully... There’s no ego, there’s your belief (a thought you repeatedly focus on) that there is, and the projection onto “it”. Same for looking at yourself objectively. That’s not actually possible because you are you, always looking, never seeing you. Saying ‘I have a strong insecure ego’ is a cover up, it covers up that you’re choosing to focus on certain thoughts & perspectives, and perpetuate certain beliefs. Essentially, you’re doing it, creating it. You don’t have to though. You can focus on thoughts & perspectives that feel good to you. When meditating, see if you can realize that no thought about you can or will ever be true or accurate in anyway - because you are the awareness prior to the thoughts. You aren’t ‘in’ a ‘thought story’. To realize this is to realize presence. Get one by getting yourself ready for one, by letting the self limiting beliefs you’ve created, go. Rather than craving an object to ‘fix’ you, let beliefs that there is anything wrong with you go - simply because they don’t feel good. Make a dreamboard and wake up the passion & happiness ‘within’, for your living & interests. Live on purpose. It’s magically magnetic. Otherwise, you’re keeping yourself in a position (perspectives) of need. That doesn’t resonate with you, and it won’t with girls either. Most of them already have that going on, and are attracted to one who isn’t needy, because they want ‘that’, they want to feel ‘that’. (‘That’ is literally just you being yourself.) It’s ok to lighten up and just simple say ‘this thinking is garbage!’ Have a laugh at it! You’re feeling your perspectives about your future. They do not feel good. Change your perspectives rather than projecting onto a ‘future’ as the catalyst or cause. Terrible feeling story, no? Don’t have to keep telling it. Wasn’t true and didn’t feel good the first time you told it. You can’t learn to live in the present moment, you already live in the present moment. Keep up the daily meditation, as that is just ‘monkey mind’. Write about emotions and how you feel now (rather than a ‘you’ in a ‘past’ or ‘future’. What is spirituality, if not the recognition those beliefs will never resonate with truth? With you! Let them go, and good feeling floats like a cork which you were holding under water. Don’t try to ‘get to’ or ‘accomplish’ good feeling. Just let the beliefs go. Tell the story you want, and watch it become your life...as effortlessly as it has been all along. Life, suffering, is the only teacher. Listen to it, rather than labelling it to death. Right. It can’t be your perspectives, your thought ‘about yourself’...no...it’s “the ego”. See? Do it, then you know from direct expereince. It is to let go of rumination & overthinking. So it doesn’t really work, if you just think about it. Again, just a different perspective. Feel free to call me crazy ?.

@Stoica Doru lol. No they don’t. You aren’t even a separate entity.

@Raptorsin7 On the loa front, my son has been a chemist for 2-3 years, and was even promoted to lab supervisor...and he hasn’t even finished his bachelor’s yet. He even has a few patents. One is the process water bottles are turned into the foam in the seats of Ford vehicles. Attitude is more important than a degree (or anything else). @communitybuilder You can’t find free will because you’re made of ‘it’. You simple do it. Thinking retards doing, especially thinking about wether you have free will or not, ‘responsibility for your life’, etc, just do what you want to do. Careful not to conceptualize your own life away, you know?

I’m suspicious of electricians who can’t explain electricity. Not sure they’re really ‘all there’.

Funny how “death” reveals you weren’t even rowing the damn boat. What a j?kester. Check now and see. No need to wait. Start dreaming today!

Because it’s inefficient, and there could be no beginning or end.

@GoingHome @GoingHome So true! I remember once reading ACIM, for a moment I looked itself through it’s own lens I swear for a hot minute there I thought I was the Sgt Pepper all the hoopla has been about. Who knows. Love is a crazy, crazy drug.

@Bittu He could facilitate your wildest most outrageous bachelor party and your most beautiful breathtaking wedding ceremony, and magically everyone involved would be enamored. Lmao.

He’s so undeniable. Hard not to fall in love with the guy.

@I Journey The trouble with the question is that the void is not experienced or ‘reached’, but prior to appearance of thought. So it is not possible for someone to tell you what it’s really like or what it feels like because essentially the communication is thought(s). You have to ‘go and see’. Similarly, string theory and or M theory etc etc remain theoretical as what is being described is prior to the appearance of thought attempting to describe itself. So thought won’t do, so to speak. I for one can not possibly strongly enough suggest that you do, if, when & as your intuition resonates or calls that you do so. I would describe it as infinite relief, awe, wonder, and a a profundity and majesty of infinite not knowing, more visceral than visceral, more real than reality, like nothing of this world.

@Eren Eeager It can be very subtle and underlying-ish experientially initially in meditation & contemplation, and ultimately can be so tremendous that it is debilitating, and you are unable to meditate or contemplate. The underlying subtle never increases, all that is covering it is released. This came to mind, and please don’t take it personally. It might be helpful / useful, and might not be. Consider a ‘raising of the bar’ (not to imply yours is low) with respect to what you choose, surround yourself with, and put in front of you. I aim to convey this in an ‘across the board’ ‘entirety of experience’ manor, but one specific example would be to imagine watching horror movies 24/7 for a week...and then watching Gaia 24/7 for a week. In that second week that subtle love is going to be popping up quite a few visceral feeling ‘he’ll yes’s’. Then bring that example home more intimately in regard to thought focused on, or let go. If I am at all ‘on point’ to ‘where you’re at’, this will open a new door, and a new deciphering via feeling becomes paramount in thought focused upon or let go, and the subtle will step right through that door.

Creativity as a life purpose is inherently unreachable because creativity can not be claimed or possessed by a you. If your purpose, in the sense ‘pursuit’, is creativity, then you already believe it is to be found / you have it not, and have made a carrot of it. I would simply drop the concept and realize you’re experiencing the actuality of it, as the very means by which you can create a life purpose. “Kills my soul” is a cover up for what’s really going on with / within you. Removing the cover up reveals perspectives that don’t resonate. That said...in as few words as possible, two or three being ideal...what is it which you know you most desire? And why is it unreachable?

To ‘feel the feeling’ is not a move you can make, as you are already feeling. Trying not to focus on a perspective, is still focusing on the same perspective.

@UDT You are creating that there is a life purpose, which imo is a good way to go about living. But if your life purpose is creativity, you’re at a standstill of isness, arguably evidenced by that you already expressed what you desire to do in this life, just, in the form of a question rather than a statement.

@Consept When a perspective doesn’t feel good, there are two components; the perspective, and the feeling. Feeling is not going to change, because it is you, infinite unconditional love.

Experiencing.

‘All of a sudden’ is other than noticing the perspective which is unaligned in feeling. ‘Fearful’, ‘anxious’ is other than changing perspective.

What’s aware of beliefs, evidence, perspectives, etc?

@Javfly33 Rock it indeed. ? ???

@Javfly33 And is it easier to shift perspectives directly to those which resonate by holding said perspectives in mind daily, or by writing what is wanted (resonates) on your dreamboard and letting go of ‘the how’?

@Javfly33 When one finds oneself in the unfortunate position of discord, is it easier to let the perspectives in discord go and then realign with perspectives that resonate, or is it easier to shift directly to the resonating perspectives?
