Well don’t do that. Conceptualizing isn’t spiritual per se, it’s aversion. Inspecting direct experience is (so to speak) spirituality, or, the other than conceptual aversion. Without an inflated contextualized self image, it’s as simple as it’s your first day on the job and nobody’s expecting you to know anything. But to uphold the inflated self image concept, this seems ludicrous (probably).

There’s no riddle. The answer to the question above, is the story below. There’s nothing you want found in a past. If you were potentially good, that’d feel potentially discordant or aligned. You are already good, and so that already feels discordant or aligned.

@PurpleTree Not really trying to say anything. If interested, what would your answers to those questions be?

@SQAAD If awakening makes you sad, what is meant by awakening?

@PurpleTree No recommendation of ignorance here. Quite the opposite.

That story weighs a hundred pounds.

“Auto-aim” ?. Perfect. It’s not a matter of what you’re saying there being applicable or not. It’s just clearly seen as self referential rumination (about ‘the one’ in states & modes, or whatever else). A rollercoaster of inferiority & self image inflation. It’s rather just direct experience, no self contextualizing needed / happening. Problem free relationships are the opposite of boring. They’re filled with conscious creation. And it’s not per se that suffering is imaginary, it’s that the self which all the thinking is about is imaginary. That there is someone who is turquoise, coral, etc.

Would you be interested in spending your time with someone while they share with you, what doesn’t feel good, to them? How many hours, days, weeks, years, do you desire to be with someone, who focuses on what they don’t want?

There is a website where you can join people in holding a hand on a hot stove. I’ll try to find it for you.

@Ramzi08 Fill a cup with water. Make a pot of tea. Pour the tea into the cup.

Write what you want on a dreamboard. Understand emotional guidance (doubt).

@Tyler Durden As a solipsist, yes.

@catcat69123 ??

@catcat69123 Ok. Will do for ten minutes. Just sit and sink into gravity and relax. Nothing ‘big’, it’s all subtle. Gently put your attention on feeling breathing from the stomach. If anything weird arises in the environment, like something with the floor, or your tv or whatever, just ignore it, it’s fine. Bring attention back to feeling breathing from the stomach. Afterwards, take at least 30 minutes to just sit and relax. Don’t engage in anything. And for the next ten minutes, and that 30 minutes, allow any release, should one arise. Much love. Starting now.

@catcat69123 Yeah. Right now ok?

@EntheogenTruthSeeker We all gonna die for love. Live for it.

Awe ya. Sweet, delicious, blissfully perfect, not knowing. ??

@Someone here

Who are you talking about love? What ‘had this insight’? There are states of you love? What are awakened guys love? Comparing yourself to… yourself love? For real, who / what are you talking about love? “Unloving”? God? Inability to love? Huh? Finite? Who’s mind, who’s survival love? Me? The awakening…? Time!? Love so crazy today love.

@Nadosa Awesome to hear! Major breakthroughs. Looking forward to hearing the EP Meditation slows the thought activity down, making it easier to spot the ‘me thoughts’ which don’t resonate, and let them go swiftly. The emotional scale helps realize the emotion you’re experiencing, in regard to the thoughts. Improv writing is quick, simple & easy, and changes the habit of focusing on discordant thoughts, to aligned thoughts. Creativity feels great. Experiencing healing modalities feels great. They work. They help with change, with letting stuff go and feeling excited about what’s to come. Even just the simple act of scheduling one feels great & is empowering. Instead of any rumination, or, going over the same things thought wise… writing in an expression journal ‘let’s it out’, and heals, by allowing whatever it is, into the light of awareness. You’re doing great. Be patient, let expectations go. Love, love, love. One key of the emotional scale is the acknowledgement that to float on up to contentment means letting discordant thoughts go… vs the old habit of thinking you need to do something to feel better. And if you aren’t, my goodness man, write songs about what you’re experiencing. It’s the culmination of everything else I’ve mentioned here, and those are the best songs. We love the experience of a song which is like ‘I feel like this, do you’. We’re all like, hell yeah I do.

The wish is already expressed. That’s done. ?? And you don’t have to go by memory, or refer to ‘from my memory’, because memory is, now. One ‘gets closer’, not by physically moving, or any doing, but by inspecting & understanding. Give this a read. Let me know if you have any questions. https://www.actualityofbeing.com/the-emotional-scale It would be confusing to attempt to unify what is already not two.

Only takes a second to notice ‘getting rid of it’ is a thought… which can be let go in meditation. Meditation isn’t to solve anything. It’s more of a letting go of the thoughts, that there are problems. That’s the beauty of meditation. Those are thoughts, which can be let go. Thoughts seem true when we believe em. The ‘other route’ is meditation. Soon enough the thoughts aren’t believed, as there is just more ‘space’ around thoughts from meditation, and we see through them. We see that they are, just thoughts. They aren’t true about you. The emotional scale is most helpful. For example, it is good to understand the emotion of jealousy, for a creator of reality. It lets you know what you want. Which helps you recognize discordant thoughts, about having it, and between the scale & meditation, those thoughts are let go / seen through, and thus your entire experience changes. If they are truly connected, and I very much agree that they are, then there is not a separate you, separate of, whatever is wanted. So there isn’t a ‘how’ per se, there is just noticing this. https://www.actualityofbeing.com/the-emotional-scale https://www.actualityofbeing.com/the-ten-ox-herding-pictures

@captainamerica Perfect ?

That is the thought activity which is let go in meditation. Had you not thought & said it just now, then just now it would already be receding. Notice you believe it’s yours, while in truth it’s a thought that arose now. Also, meditation is not a habit, and there is nothing wrong with you, and nothing to fix. That statement surely brings to mind “But I want…._________”. Instead of focusing on thoughts about yourself, focus on _________.
