Thought Art

Are you isolating yourself listening to Leo Constsntly?

13 posts in this topic

Let’s talk about that. Chances are this isn’t really helping and you need to go out and socialize, act in what you are learning and really just take action.

 

Stop filling your head with ideas and go get some direct experience.

out and socialize

I’m an introvert. I listen to who inspires me, and I spend time contemplating and basking in the beauty and magic of my solipsistic field.


“Our most valuable resource is not time, but rather it is consciousness itself. Consciousness is the basis for everything, and without it, there could be no time and no resource possible. It is only through consciousness and its cultivation that one’s passions, one’s focus, one’s curiosity, one’s time, and one’s capacity to love can be actualized and lived to the fullest.” - r0ckyreed

I think there is only so much you can listen to someone before you get the gist.


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.

Actualization is a hobby too.

I didn't know life could be improved.

You are a selfless LACK OF APPEARANCE, that CONSTRUCTS AN APPEARANCE. But that appearance can disappear and reappear and we call that change, we call it time, we call it space, we call it distance, we call distinctness, we call it other. But notice...this appearance, is a SELF. A SELF IS A CONSTRUCTION!!! 

So if you want to know the TRUTH OF THE CONSTRUCTION. Just deconstruct the construction!!!! No point in playing these mind games!!! No point in creating needless complexity!!! The truth of what you are is a BLANK!!!! A selfless awareness....then that means there is NO OTHER, and everything you have ever perceived was JUST AN APPEARANCE, A MIRAGE, AN ILLUSION, IMAGINARY. 

Everything that appears....appears out of a lack of appearance/void/no-thing, non-sense (can't be sensed because there is nothing to sense). That is what you are, and what arises...is made of that. So nonexistence, arises/creates existence. And thus everything is solved.

You can listen to Leo even while getting direct experience and taking action. Why should they be mutually exclusive? 

So people who take action don't watch Leo? 

Absurd assumptions.

I isolate myself because that's who I am, an introvert, specifically a social or thinking introvert. Covid was almost a normal period of time for me, I missed going out but only for small walks for example. I did get lonely and do get lonely but it doesn't require much for this to pass.

It's difficult to make judgments on people you haven't met before Thought Art. You might think socialization and meeting people is right for everyone, but chances are people need that in different doses. I find a few limited interactions in a week are more than enough, I enjoy them and I enjoy people but if I am everyday socializing I find it tedious, repetitive, and often frustrating.

Although I do seek out some deeper meaning in interactions I find most don't and that's fine. I have met one or two that do, like a small spiritual group I used to attend, but not many. I can find it here from time to time, so I come here, share, and learn.

LOL.  I'm a 77/100 Introvert.  You guys are in for a world of hurt if you don't get out there and socialize.  Your minds will devour you. Speaking from experience.
