  1. That is some elegant honesty. I find it very moving & I feel that I do understand it. I also feel that I understand how to overcome it. If you watched the first half of any movie and turned it off, you’d think it’d sucked. All the build up, tension & problems, with no resolve, no self discovery, no self realization, no insights gained, no hero’s journey completed. If you watched the second half though, it’d all make sense. Congrats on getting through the first half, and on realizing you’re a seeker. Imo, that is the greatest, and most noble thing a person can be. The Truth will indeed set you free. In the very second the path ‘clicks’, you begin feeling better. I hope that is here & now. There is a ‘way’, and it has been around for a long, long time. The second half can be where you realize you have been creating emotions in response to the outside world, circumstances & events. This is initially to good to be true, to see. Don’t dismiss it easily, it takes time. It’s certainly not your fault. This living in dissatisfaction is in large part the way of the world, and what it has taught you. It never felt right, never resonated, because it’s garbage. It never resonated with me either, and I also tried a whole lot of stuff. I found this is because emotions are not created relative to the outside world, but by being in alignment, or in discord, with your inner being, via feeling. In believing thoughts, we label feelings, ‘guilt’, ‘anger’, shame’, ‘hopelessness’, etc. If we didn’t label them, if we inspected them, if we listened to them, we’d hear a whole different tune. It’s humbling & difficult, but it is true. It’s a lot to expect one to figure this out, given the present collective human conditionIng. You’re already in the right place though. Keep making posts, keep inspecting. Don’t accept the labels, though you see others do. Don’t write off your feelings, though everyone around might be doing so. You are right, what you’re saying, is right. Even if you’re feeling alone, and that no one understand what you are realizing - you are right about what you’re finding. There is true, lasting happiness, but it can not found in, or derived of, an outside world. The more we expect this to be the case, the more we find ourselves suffering. The happiness is within you, this is precisely why some thoughts feel good, and some thoughts do not feel good. You are experiencing the relativity of each thought, relative to the source of you. You are a creator. When you align thought, with the source of you, that which you are wanting is created. The source of you is Good. Thoughts which do not feel good to you, do not have any ‘backing’ because there is no source of “bad”, and with these not-good-feeling thoughts, nothing gets created, sans suffering. Listen to the suffering, listen to feeling - not thoughts about it. Choose thoughts that feel good to you. Trust in yourself, in spite of everything & everyone behaving to the contrary.
  2. @VeganAwake Totally agree...but.....why do this...(if you don’t mind me askin)
  3. With respect to what you said there it’s best if I decline to answer. ??
  4. @Vercingetorix How’s you foundation; Diet, fitness, daily practices, inspecting beliefs, aligning source-feeling-thought? How’s your creatorship; dream boarding, letting go, allowing the dots to connect? How’s your mindfulness of self love, & relationship love giving? How’s purification going?
  5. Quite a few a priori beliefs are needed to believe death is actual in any way.
  6. References to the subconscious mind is the mind’s sneaky way of referencing to what one is unconscious (sub, below conscious) of, but is actually self referential thinking as what’s referenced is “outside of consciousness” (no thing is within, and no thing is outside of self).
  7. What appears to be the context of that, is only appearance. (Shortage, time, lives, doing, repeating). None of that is actually “happening”, as “happening” is also a mental projection upon infinity, which is itself infinity. Notice it appears you are moving your hands and fingers...but you can not pin point that you are.
  8. No, I mean from & between my parents in reference to my childhood. Grand parenting is entirely different. No, but I support them. I see distinctions between being, and the actions & behaviors of being. Also, yes, in the sense, none of the distinctions are absolute. lol. Zen devilry is like the Hulk realizing he’s just always angry.
  9. @fridjonk It is! So true. It’s like here’s what the colors look like through turquoise / nondual.
  10. @fridjonk Sweet! The last couple episodes bring it in pretty close to home man. I think you’ll love it. Then grab the tissues and check out Won’t You Be My Neighbor.
  11. @Florian Awesome. Keep in touch with me if you will, love to hear from you on the boxing future front. I love boxing. Next life for sure. Clean up that diet - emotional mastery & boxing will thank you.
  12. My parents were / are entirely subject - object perspective driven, dogmatic, and therefore in self-denial of their belief in judgement. So there are let downs, anger, outbursts, misunderstandings, not being understood, self imposed illnesses, yada yada...suffering. I’m well aware each of my kids are creating their reality, and that nothing I can say could be as effective as the feeling that is source within them. So I appeal to that. So, from on onlooker perspective, my dad was angry, and I am patient. (I’m not really patient, I just have seen through what it “is”). At the same time, I am only the way I am, thanks to my parents, while of course, I don’t actually have parents and I’m aware my kids don’t either. (And they do)
  13. @fridjonk Maybe you’ve reached a new place, where what you “classified” as your “comfort zone”, isn’t really what you find comfort in anymore. Might be one of those sneaky tricks you mentioned. You might be the peace, if you will...the comfort. There’s a lot of comfort knowing you can just decide.
  14. The Messiah. New series on Netflix.
  15. They certainly can. Relatively speaking, I had no idea I’d be doing the work that I am now. It was not where I was headed at all. I was just trying to find out what reality is out of curiosity. Honestly, I can’t even say I got a “life purpose” or even an idea. It was just - this is what’s happening now. I think this iPad came about the same way. Now of course, it’s obvious for me this is where I was always headed. Where did I even think I was going really. Lol. Sometimes in a solid trip, you feel the whole puzzle, and realize thinking was going only from piece to piece, not realizing how, or that they did, fit together perfectly already.
  16. @fridjonk What’d you find ego intelligence and devilry to be?
  17. @bejapuskas Yes. The difference in a nutshell is anger & patience, and we’re equal.
  18. @WelcometoReality ??♥️ It does seem so...“happiness” is keeping all the write’s off’s in place, my ego, my mind, my thinking, my childhood, my area, my culture, my brain, my life, my parents, my job, etc. HAPPINESS is what let’s them go. “Reaching” higher states.......meh.
  19. @danilofaria lol. Well, we’re ‘out there’. ♥️ Do you have specific questions?
  20. @Bill W You can pm me anytime ya like. I tried em all, to see. Nothing ‘stuck’. L-theanine was calming / relaxing. Pharma Gabba also. If someone is looking for a reduction in thinking, to “slow things down”, they work pretty well. (Loving this Bill...was more to the open mindedness, the ‘waking up’ ness I’m seein... trying stuff like L-theanine, not specifically about it ♥️)
