Great stuff, everyone! Thank you! This right here. To be honest; no, I don't really enjoy all that stuff. At least so far. I do like the idea of interacting with fans... but I feel like music is already doing that part. It's how I speak to them. I'd much rather have someone to manage all that stuff for me, so I can only focus on creating content. I already have a guy in mind. He's a good friend of mine and he's experienced with online marketing. He also knows what I'm really about and understands in which direction I wish to go. I guess that could work out really good. Thanks! I play guitar, sing, compose and produce my music. Others do the video part for me. At least when it comes to 'proshoots'. Thank you. I checked tiktok once or twice. Immediately found it repulsive haha. Dunno, I guess all that stuff is really not my thing. Better leave it to someone who knows what they're doing and has the nerves and stomach for it lol ?

Any music can make me dance ?

Last night I re-watched this video of Matt Kahn's... I absolutely adore his transmissions. No matter how many times I come back to his videos - there's always something new to absorb. Pure Wisdom, Love and hilarity. I've listened to quite a few teachers in my past... None of them feel as close to home as Matt. Not even nearly. It does not matter how big the words you use are. Or how out of this stratosphere your realizations and insights are. Or how much DMT you can snort. That's all child's play. Flashing and stroking. 'Something can be interesting - but not very helpful.' This right here is how spiritual maturity looks, sounds and feels like. The full circle - if you will. Every word is rooted in Love and understanding. All that's being said is being lived out. It is integrated and embodied. No teacher should dare to preach about Love unless their words are coming from a heart - centred consciousness - NOW. That's something that Leo 'lacks', in my opinion. And that is why I rarely enjoy watching his videos nowdays, to be honest. No matter how conscious (or not) and how God - realized (or not) ... This always sounds True. Simple, grounded and effortless.

@Nahm Lovely ?

@Nahm It's a whole new world ?

@phoenix666 I feel the same ? It might as well be the most important question one could ever ask. ❤

@Matys I feel ya. I've been trapped in that corner before, too. In a sense; it's exactly how and where you should be. 'Frozen' and 'static'. It's not meant to be pleasant. But sooner or later the notion of it will melt away. Only Love remains.

*Shameless self - promotion* Because why not? ? ...I specifically wrote these songs for God. Just did not know it at the time ?

In love with this band. So good!

@Nahm Oh Boy. You're hitting all the nails brother. I salute you. ??

It's only 'based on opposites' to a mind. Paradox is only known to mind. Duality is. Polarization. The heart knows nothing about opposites. The heart only beats. The heart only Loves.

@WaveInTheOcean Nice! Thanks ? It's important do identify and understand these aspects of ourselves. Otherwise the 'work' we do can be very sloppy and not that effective or efficient, at all. Counter-productive, even. To me; Ego is the entanglement of different aspects of God, if you will. Thoughts, sensations, views... I'd describe the process of 'deconstruction' as an unwinding of those aspects. In my opinion; it's simply Light 'finding its way' to Source. Retracing, even. It 'begins' and 'ends' at the same place and the same time; here and now. The more entangled - the more 'time' it's needed for it to unwind. In that sense; this process is happening in reverse. Or backwards. Another way I like describing 'ego' is; A lag effect. Also; Simply God being sleepy and in need of a nap ?

??

@SQAAD Is God too much to handle... for God? Your 'vessel' might not be yet fully ready to hold frequencies that are too high. Thus you experience shock and panic. Is there any 'physical' pain? Or were you just freaked out by how perfectly synchronized and aligned everything is?

So... You got drunk or high...is what you're saying? ? What is the 'problem' precisely? If there is any ?

@SQAAD I'm all ears ?

What does 'ego' mean to you, exactly? Not all egos are the same. Would you agree? Someone who has an inferior ego structure will have a completely different path of deconstruction or surrendering from someone who has a superior / narcissistic ego structure. I think that is a very important thing to be noted. That is why a certain spiritual path might work perfectly fine for one person and not work at all for another. Not only that, but it can also be damaging and it can further perpetuate unconscious ways of being. Love is the one doing the loving - so to speak. The 'ego' does not have to do a thing. I would describe the process as 'coming back' for yourself. Or 'looking down' on yourself from Heaven - so to speak. That is Love honoring the experiencer.

@Member Haha! Oopsy ? It's just Light doing its thing ??

@Bazooka Jesus Must be honest - I have a lot on my plate these days... But you bet I will keep you updated! You made my day bro. Thank you! Stay awesome!

@WaveInTheOcean You had me... Then you lost me. Then you had me again.... And then lost me again ? Lots of circling in what you said... But I appreciate your input. And cool song, indeed. ***************************************** To answer the question 'What would Love do?' ...as I believe it is relevant to the discussion that went down...: 'Love would honor the experiencer' And that's something many overlook on their path. Or better yet; they do the complete opposite. Which is blaming and demonizing the 'part' of themselves that they believe is in their way towards enlightenment or liberation. That is the danger in just mindlessly following others' guidance - without stopping for a moment to listen to our hearts. And that is why I recognize flaws in most spiritual teachings.

Metal music dares to go places where no one else does. This is how you deal with unimaginable pain. This is how you heal. Also; fuck politics. Music ftw!

@Bazooka Jesus This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. I will never stop doing what I love - that's for sure. God bless you.

Ground yourself. Do simple things. Smile, laugh, interact - heart to heart. Surrender all realizations. Open up the heart as wide as you can.
