Cool, thanks @Faceless :-)

I see that in the intention. Right now I am trying to do everything without any intention, just by doing it because I enjoy it. But that's also an intention too... I think this is what Buddhist call the non doing, an action that is not a result of interaction with a cause and it does not look for an effect. I am paraphrasing, not sure it that's correct.

How do you end psychological time? inquiry into it? observation? My (the) mind is always there trying to arrive to a conclusion.

Why do you think that?

@Karin12414 Teal Swan suffered a lot of abuse when she was a child, she has a lot of videos about how she overcome them. Take a look at her youtube website. She talks a lot about spirit guides and other stuff, I try to focus only in what I think she can be of help, like shadow work, she helps a lot on controlling emotions and things like that. Allan Watts has also great videos, but they are more general about enlightenment.

I am reading her book and she says something that I was thinking for a long time... everything we say is a LIE. I totally agree with that.

@egoless thanks for sharing your experiences, they are really helpful. In reality it's existence talking to itself, right? hehehehe... nice!

Yes, I will do that, no problem hehehe... soon I will be doing a webcomic. A writer is working on the script, it will be live soon. Yes, he is... thank to you too... because due to your icon I could find about him. I am following him on twitter and I added it to my patreon and facebook!

I will post some sketches I was doing, probably tomorrow. I posted one in that thread, here it is. I am working on a new webpage, I will send you the link when is ready. I have some illustration in my graphic design website, here http://mowsedesign.com/portfolio-item/illustrations/

First of all, you are not crazy. Always remember that the "you" that is created is just a result of a lot of factors, some are unconscious and probably with a shocking experience like you had, they will appear and re surface from deep within you. And you probably don't know why and that's why you are thinking that is something crazy or weird. One thing that helped me a lot was mindful meditation. It makes you observe your thoughts, as if they are there but they are not "your" thoughts. You are just the observer of them. When a thought arises, you just observe it and let it go. This creates a mechanism in you, that in my case it worked really well. Those thoughts that are negative disappeared like magic when I become aware of them. You feel really powerful and in control. Maybe you can try it and then tell us if it worked for you. Leo has a video about mindfulness and the one that I used was from Teal Swan.

I think is a kind of "killing" when you just observe it detached from it, like if it was a spoiled child. IDK, what do you think?

Thanks @Faceless It's incredible but you (people in general) can learn a lot about yourself by doing art.

I am going to post some stuff in this thread, so we don't hijack @egoeimai thread.

Thanks for sharing @mostly harmless

@blazed No, it's only boring work Lol... I just check the files that are sent to us, they are already designed so I just have to check that the file is Ok to print and then I do the imposition for big presses. We do mostly magazines. It's not bad, I really enjoy my work, but I would like to do more art, I really like comics. Were are you located? I am in New Jersey and I am planning to go to the New York Comicon in October. I want to have a table there in the artist alley and if everything goes well I will have a printed comic to sell or to give, not sure about that.

How is the movie doing?

@blazed Nice stuff! Who knows? We have to do that anyway hehehe... If I really can do what I am doing at the printing office I am working now I would be happy anyway hehehehe...

Nice pic! @Iorga Camil !!!! @moon777light @ppfeiff I liked a lot your icon @moon777light and because I am curious and I like to draw I made a google image search and I found the artist. hehehe... https://kuvshinov-ilya.deviantart.com/art/Gloves-560822899 He seems to be amazing, great art! His name is Ilya Kuvshinov and lives in Japan. I knew about him because of a drawing that was going around internet long time ago based on the movie the Professional https://kuvshinov-ilya.deviantart.com/art/Mathilda-Leon-429473632 Awesome stuff, and the most interesting thing is that he has a Patreon page and is making like 3000 per week!!!! OMG https://www.patreon.com/Kuvshinov_Ilya I want to do that kind of money doing art!!! Sh*t!!!! Lol

Cows are very peaceful, so that's a good name for WHAT IS.

Thanks! If truth does not exist, I don't think that's possible. Maybe I am wrong, but my logic tells me that whatever it is that created everything or whatever is conscious is the truth, it doesn't matter how did it happen. Even if nothing really exists, well... the truth will be that nothing exist, right? Whatever is happening or being, that's the truth. Even the idea that thruth doesn't exist, if that's true... then that's the truth. Truth must exist because any option will be the truth. I don't think there's an scape of that. Well, I think that is what is happening right now. If truth exist and we cannot grasp it. It will exist anyway. On the other hand, what I am doing is following the advice of other persons or enlightened persons that say almost the same things (with different words from different cultural backgrounds) which say that is possible to transcend our limitations and have a direct experience with what is. And what I am doing is not believing what they say, I am just being open minded about their messages to humanity and trying to look by myself. Not because they say truth will make me free, I just believe it. I will find by my own experience if that is true. In the meantime I just have it in my mind as a possibility among other things. We are all free, but we don't think we are. We can't see that we are free. And I tell you that through my experience. I know that all the problems we have is because of not knowing who or what we are. We have an identity problem. How do we create our identity? By reflection on others. If someone says to you, you are brilliant. You will believe that you are. If some other person, that has more influence over you says you are an idiot, maybe you will change your mind and you will think you are an idiot. So, we are not free because we don't know who we are, and we let our thoughts, ideas and beliefs dictate what we are. You study medicine, then you are a doctor. But you are also a father, or son. You like to sing, so you are a good singer. You like maths, you are smart... etc... We try to be a lot of things, some of them influenced by our relatives, friends and some others by our environment. That's why we are not free. The truth (what we are) shall make us free (free from concepts, from other's ideas, from our thoughts, etc). That's why Jesus said "I am the truth", because what we really are is the ultimate truth. You are welcome. I am just sharing my experiences, but keeping the options open (I mean not to discard or disregard anything until having a direct experience) in my opinion is the way to learn in this process that it never ends, we are always learning new things. And nothing I said is absolute, I find everyday new things that make me think again old paradigms. :-)

Thanks! I will try it tonight and I let you know anything I notice. I like to be a beta tester hehehe...

You are welcome Nahm! I really didn't understand the deeper meaning until I was like 30 I think hehehe... But it helped me anyway to get out of trouble as a teenager.

The phrase that changed my life was on a bracelet my grandmother gave to me and it said: Truth shall make you free
