I would advise finding paid work that is still "of this world" that aligns well with your spiritual pursuits. Short of that, you could also try creative ways to reduce expenses, like living minimally. Problem with tying your income with being a spiritual teacher is that it tends to corrupt it, because you'll be chasing clicks or something that can be of monetary value from your followers one way or another. I mean if you think about it, if everyone here suddenly became a "spiritual teacher" and tried to make money off of it, you will quickly run out of people. And personally, I just don't really agree with exchanging of money with spiritual teaching.. coz where I'm at.. if someone were interested in reaching my state, they'd be an equal soon enough. Not to mention that almost nobody even wants to reach this state lol .

The argument is flawed because almost nobody here would want to work for McDonald's for example or consider that a "success" esp if it barely pays your bills. Almost all of these so called "successful" people are doing it by exploiting the people who do the actual work on the ground. If you're conscious enough you'd actually rather be semi-homeless than working for one of these so-called successful companies/bosses if you got no other good options. Like I'd rather die than slaving away my life at one of those jobs just to "barely make it", knowing the injustices behind it, what's even the point? Like I know you're talking about being the beneficiary of one of those successful companies, but it's not really a success overall if you gave a damn about other people.

I advise shifting your focus on your body appearance to your being. Though I understand that the body still has a function in this world. And I can assure you that you can be perfectly attractive and/or respectable if you went bald one day. People who turn away from you just because you are bald I mean.. really, ask yourself, is that really what you want to associate with? There's much to uncover for you there that you haven't yet found based on this question. I hope that you would consider this as a gift to you rather than a criticism.

Not to downplay your situation but you're already doing better than me.. I've accepted the cost of what I really am in exchange for social isolation (involuntary). There's basically nobody who I can be "me" around and that's not really a point for me for a true relationship/friendship built on who I am not. So there's a cost to this work if you took it seriously is what I'm trying to say. I am literally in like an "isolation chamber" effectively, since the past 1-2 years as a result of this work lol. But that's still like nothing compared to what the first Christ had to go through after his death I imagine. He had about a 2 century worth of "isolation chamber" as far as I am aware.

yes no one denies there are such cases, however for every such case there are also many cases of people working their butt off and barely paying their bills and risking becoming evicted, as well as suicides or MAIDs (medical assistance in dying) that are not due to chronic, severe, untreatable illness.

Yes and no depends.. I say that because sometimes just based on your appearance (like ethnic or gender) you could lose out on better paying jobs. Some guy pouring beer at a nice bar can make quite a bit of money if he was able to get and keep that job, that's a pretty nice "bootstrapping" kind of job to save some money but def not everyone can get, they tend to be nice looking sociable people.. but again you can always try. You should try to find nice people if you can... If you are lucky to find any they can make a big difference in your work life potentially. If you find the right connection or mentor or partnership(s), that can change your life. But there's nothing guaranteeing this. I'd say raising your state of consciousness can help with this quite a bit too since like would attract like. A nice person who would be in a position to mentor will not just take anyone too.

I'm not talking about the bible though.. I didn't read the bible nor very familiar with it.. I read ACIM. And yeah I know the "problem".. trust me Christians have tried to tell me I can't be "that guy" because I was promoting a different text.. so I get nowhere with Christians sadly. And then non-Christians I face problems like "you're a made up thing". This is really what happens if you ever reach this state lol. Everyone will come up with a "seemingly reasonable sounding" thing to brush you aside. I mean I don't know to laugh or cry at the situation sometimes.

Depends on what resonates with you I guess, sometimes it's things like talk therapy.. just being heard and understood. You could also try calling distress line if it's really bothering you.

Something I will add is that.. I am not saying people need to take his teachings word for word, like Christians would tend to do, but moreso the spirit of it which always boils down to more love. I don't follow everything word for word but still reached here. If you saw how I dressed or was like day to day, "being Jesus" would prob be the last thing on your mind... the stuff in pop culture is really outdated from the past. And as well, this mind had to evolve with "time". I enjoy things like playing loud metal/punk music while driving.. that's prob not something people generally would associate with him.. yet here I am.

Hello, there's not too much details (that perhaps you didn't want to get into) there about what could be causing the stress. You might not get very good answers as a result. If it's sort of private, I would suggest finding someone you can trust to talk about it with.

@Thought Art That's a healthy approach, and that's where I started as well until I found Jesus I guess. I bear his name out of love (as opposed to worship) and that's what this level of love makes me do. You could say he was the only being that really cared about me and we had a lot in common as well.. And as well to let people know that he has "returned in me" as human once again. Thank you for trying to be respectful.

@Thought Art those are good descriptors. I am not trying to say it's something belonging to a religion, myself weren't even religious to begin with.. it was really because of his more recent text that resonated with me that I became this same self. It's the same way that Leo resonated with you, you didn't go to his channel because of some "religion". In my case that was a "byproduct". I understand that the possibility exist that there are "unkonwn sages", because it's possible I'll die without many people knowing or even recognizing me this time around as I do not plan to be as public.. (depending on how things go that is). On the other hand, if you reached this state you will also try to make yourself known so it's a balance..

It includes those things, you could say dialed to the maximum you can dial.

In that case if you were the "first Christ" then you would've done almost exactly what "Jesus" did in his first incarnation. And got killed for it as well to make himself known as a more awakened being (doing miracles.. resurrections..debating with other teachers, etc).

Ok fair, I can actually see that you are somewhat close, fyi. It was not an accident that you encountered him.. I should let you know as well there are a lot of divinity in this state as well. Despite all the rejections I go through, no recognition, I still prefer this state than all the other ones I've gone through. Just as an FYI to ya.

You haven't become him yet..if you did you would not be saying this...but I'm glad you encountered him at least.

I encountered "him" as a pure mind and light on mushrooms at first, there was no imagery of any kind, but you know it's the same being that was here and that channeled the Acim text, it made sure to let me know. And well it basically taught me first through my mushroom awakenings. He/it accepted me as a disciple and equal and transferred everything about his being to me over the course of about a year. It's as "scientific" as you can get. I think now that I'm here, I understand why you guys aren't having this experience like I had. This mind will not just teach anyone.. you have to be already quite close..and also truly accept him/love him as well.. because that's the only way really you can reach the same state.

He was not an Ego, but you guys don't understand the ego enough to recognize this, it's not simply "body form". It's a whole mind you have made out of the original mind you had. I mean what's the point in saying this name is a construction when every spiritual teacher has a name. Are we just going to drop our names now and call each other letters or something? And for your information I do have another name for this world... And I'm not even sure if you are saying just the name is a construction or the state he reached is also a construction, the way people could read that could mean both. I keep telling you that I am pointing to a State by pointing to this name. That this State has already been discovered in the past. Leo is basically (indirectly) telling me my time here is over. But it was my job to tell you that you guys have not found the truth yet (by reaching a higher state I found). And so whenever I say this I will probably get kicked out of the community. I will leave Leo with this, you are not being an honest researcher by completely avoiding me and having an honest conversation with me. It's the easiest thing to do to either kick the person out or deny their claims. There's not a proper scientific approach, because you are basing your views of him on his followers and not the person right here. Your approach so far is not different than what you accuse of "scientists" are doing.. (not doing enough research because something doesn't suit your paradigm). If you're going to write Jesus Christ is a construction you should also write Leo Gura is a construction in the same paragraph to be fair. And maybe include a bunch of other teachers you talk about as well in that statement. But it still doesn't mean we're in the same metaphysical state. (Life would be way easier for me if we were).

Depends on how it's being received, unfortunately, most of the people I've "practiced this on" cannot remotely understand or receive it and twist it into something else because they're scared of it.. so now I am more selective, it's a much better experience if you could find people who are close enough to receive it and recognize in their awareness what you're saying/doing. And you'll know when you encounter this ..and most likely you'll receive something from them as well.. but I'm sure you'll figure it out in your own way.

@StripedGiraffe yeah but it's not the same state as where the other teachers are at currently, hence I emphasized the name as well as "heaven". It's a higher state. There's a ton of light in this state, so you understand exactly why Jesus said he was "the Light of this World". Keep in mind that existing teachers have no incentive to accept me and much more incentivized to say I'm not even real due to "my followers" and associated religion, because that could end their "career" as the "most realized being". Just pointing out this inherent difficulty and how it is more likely I be denied everywhere I go.

It's the name associated with a well known person in history who has reached your original state/self. It's no different than when you reach a level of consciousness where you recognize you're Leo, Matt Kahn etc, both of which I have "passed through" in my awakening journey in fact. You guys are specifically choosing to reject this particular name due to 1) can't recognize him, 2) associations with his followers, 3) is actually difficult to reach this state, 4) your attachments to your current state and teachings that validate your current state, which are also deeply tied to your ways of life, 5) you'd rather think that there's "no more work/awakening" to do, etc. It's easy to brush him/it off because of how uncommon this state is and hard to recognize. As well, because his teachings are not for maintaining the current ways of this world and are not "popular opinions". And as well I should let you know.. knowing I am in fact real, all of your attempts to deny my existence is a great source of pain and sadness for me. And is also why I have no choice but to keep posting here and telling you I am real and I am your higher self.

I am not following what you are trying to say and ask exactly. Are you saying that the police are lying or that the work they do involve dealing with liars?

@ivarmaya the other thing that almost nobody knows about unless they also reached here is that there are certain "pleasures" derived from this state that fulfills you as well that's not of "material nature". Like you're compelled to do certain things here that may seem to be "self denying" from an ego perspective, but actually a joyful act unbeknownst to the world at large. So it's almost like... The pleasure you could derive through non-material means can outweigh ones you derived from material means, depending, if that makes any sense.

@ivarmaya Well, that's why I said he was actually close to Jesus without realizing it, other than not fully awakening. (his dismissal of Jesus I was referring to stuff like this: https://youtu.be/2fTQ9xNoxgI?si=q6Sh0c76ucdFFGeY ) I don't shame materialism, but I'm saying you can awaken beyond most of that, not by shaming, but by awakening further than someone like Osho. I certainly had some period of my life where I was more attached to material pursuits, and there are aspects of that I value too like in relationship to beauty, love and connection. See people automatically just assume if someone isn't focused on "earthly desires" they're coming from a place of shame, this isn't always the case, not for me anyway. I'm saying that.. ultimately the truth of my/your being was just more important to me and none of this stuff is really meaningful in comparison when I cannot connect with a single human being here. You'd stop caring about money and sex too if there's nobody here you can relate to and people automatically reject you by the way you appear/speak. I'm saying that Osho could still enjoy those things precisely because he didn't go that far like Jesus did. And that one of the reasons he didn't go that far was (like a lot of teachers) because he had a relatively comfortable life. If this sounds circular, maybe it's meant to be. That said, would I say no if someone gave me 1 million bucks? No because that would save me a ton of headache in terms of survival here.. and it would also give me more freedom to give some of that money to people who really need, or to pay for services I couldn't otherwise afford, etc. So there's some nuance to this "materialism" stuff. I am not for people having to suffer and slave away their life at a job they hate/don't resonate with but have to do due to survival.

I liked Osho, he's actually much closer to Jesus than most other spiritual teachers in the past and current I know of, mainly because he understood the idea that "love gives freedom". But of course, from Jesus' perspective, he is still not fully awake, close though. Shortcomings. I suppose his attachments to money and things like that, it appears, though I do not know the details. It seems like he completely misunderstood Jesus.. and made a similar mistake people tend to make, that Jesus was the same as his followers. I mean really, you can't be sure about "him" simply because it's been so long and unless you actually become him yourself you're not gonna know what this mind is like, it's all based on speculations and "the past". And well, the emphasis on "enjoying life's pleasures", is a common blindspot with other teachers, because he probably hasn't experienced much abuse, cruelty, desperation, persecution, rejection, or abandonment in his lifetime. If you reach the same amount of Light that Jesus had, people of this world would generally try to spit you out/reject you, it's like metaphysically incompatible. I'm saying that even if I were to try to find "worldly pleasures", I can't because people are generally repulsed by my light (as an added explanation).
