Rest after the inbreathe. Rest in the space after the inbreathe.

Chant- Wa-Ha-hamuma

Breakthrough. Incredible experience with music and resting as awareness. The key is the awareness. Being yourself. Being yourself and resting. The hardest part is to rest as pure awareness without the mind clinging to some object and getting distracted and caught up in experience. Fuck all my haters and fuck everyone who doubted me I fucking did it.

Rest as awareness. Just be aware. Don't make any effort beyond recognizing that you are aware. Then notice what arises. I think i'm making too much of an effort and the seeking is causing me to overlook the simplicity of being aware. There's definitely some trauma with the lower chakras with sexuality and bladder, but i wonder if these will be resolved with just being aware and abiding in that space.

Breathe deeply into the chest, stomach, and lower chakras. Engage the body with the breathe. Breathe into the mass of tension localized as the body/being. Don't make the breathing mechanical. The deeper the breathing, and the more parts of the body are engaged, the more relaxed the body will become. Breathe into the lower chakras.

Go to the experience of being aware. This is the beginning of deep practice. Once you are aware of being aware, then notice what happens from this place. I think i'm seeking from the space of being aware and that is blocking me from going deeper. Lose yourself in the experience of being aware. Get absorbed into that experience. Surrender to the experience. Breathe into the experience of being aware. You are awareness. There is nothing to seek. You are it. Breathe as yourself. Don't breathe to find yourself. Breathe and be yourself. Bring attention to the lower chakras and breathe and chant into them. The lower chakras contain a lot of energy and trauma for me so it's an important place to explore. Most important is to do multi hour floats more frequently. 2 days a week on my days off will be excellent.

His app is great, he has conversations with different spiritual teachers. I got introduced to jim newman and tony Parsons because of the app

Did you have permanent shifts that lasted after the trip? Like feeling more, love bliss etc?

Know thyself. Know the nature of knowing.

Tony Parson's is a G. I think I struck gold with his teaching. Knowing is everything.

@Gesundheit Dude are you even enlightened?

@Emerald Do you consider yourself enlightened after your ayahuasca trip?

The strength is in the spine. Put your attention to the spine and find strength. Put attention on the spine, and use that strength to keep attention on the breathe. Use the spine to go deeper into your feelings.

I call bs. You still have so much internal conflict to resolve no way she is the highest quality mate a man could attract. Maybe for you that's the pinnacle and she is great, but from my pov you still have work to do and so I think there are still higher quality people you don't have access to yet.

Does anyone posting about Male and female relationships in this thread actually have a relationship with a high quality partner of the opposite sex?

Watch the mind. Be still. Turn attention to the mind, and notice what happens. Watching the mind is very important. This may be a key insight. To watch the mind. Witness the activity of the mind. Don't get lost in the mind. Just rest and witness the mind.

@zeroISinfinity It's cool I don't mind being invoked. Yeah, I have no desire for true relationship until I learn how to be a developed and capable man. I have high standards for a partner and I know that how I am right now won't cut it. For now i'll settle for escorts and tinder. I'm pretty sure girls can tell in like 5 mins of meeting if you are worthy of them or not, everything else is kinda bs. If a man is judged worthy by a high value girl, 99% sure he will have emotional capacity and inner development to satisfy other needs. Is it too much to ask for smart, beautiful, rich, classy, and good/pure? I feel like when i'm done with inner work I will check all boxes myself that i want in a partner at least.

Focus on stimulating the dorsal vagal nerve. Breathe in, and breathe out longer than the in breathe. On the long out breathe feeling the pressure on the dorsal vagal nerve. Feel the outbreathe stimulate the spine

become aware of being aware. Be aware of the present, and then aware of that and so on. Feel the energy that builds up from that. Keep it up and you will feel a charge, and that will allow the breathe to go deeper as well. Deep breaths. Aware of being aware. Feel the tension dissolve in the head.

Feel. Accept the feeling deeper and deeper

Become aware of being aware. Be aware of the sensations at the center of the head. Watch Forrest's video on clinical mindfulness. Become aware of being aware. And feel. Become aware of feelings, and then becoming aware of the fact that you are aware of feelings. This is the highest teaching so far. Watch the clinical mindfulness video everyday.

Rest as open awareness. Accept experience fully and be fully present and aware. Then play some inspiring/epic music or movies scenes and feel into the music/scene. If you get the right video/music you will stimulate a pleasure center of the brain and you can feel the good feelings emerge in experience.

Become aware of the sense of suffering if you're ever in deep suffering. There will always be a felt sense of suffering in experience, and instead of distracting yourself, turn your attention towards the suffering and go deeper into it. Be with the suffering fully, fully embrace the suffering until it is no longer suffering.

What does everyone think of an actualized.org discord channel? Lot's of popular online figures have discords for their audience it could be a fun thing. If it is against forum guidelines, would it possible to discuss whether the guideline is outdated or could use an upgrade to allow for something like discord? Thoughts? @Leo Gura
