Loving Radiance

Agreed. Cyberpunk was just another contemporary shooter with just another appearance.

Yes, as soon as you sense unreceptiveness you can just leave without a word if it fels right. Mindful connecting with people makes it much more flowing and with less resistance from you & others. Just saying hi is success. And I feel that is exactly what @Striving for more needs in his current circumstance. @Keyhole Feel free to give your pov on this. Your perspective is very much appreciated.

@Keyhole @Javfly33 We can reason all we want, what it comes down to is your willingness to meet a new person & to potentially annoy a random stranger for 15 seconds. It's a matter of selfishness: Do I value it more to meet a new person (to potentially enjoy life together in any shape/form) than to potentially disturb a person & to not connect, to not share your being?

Pulling up orange.

@Striving for more Asking "Should I have approached here ?" is your answer. The fact that you thought about it and now ask the question is evident. You don't know how receptive she is till you try it. Sure, headphones are one signal not to be approached, but apparently she gave him signs of interest, so go figure.

@Yuliya I feel with you and I'm sending lots of love to you. ? Her love is the most precious, keep that in your heart. Out of curiosity, if you don't mind me asking: Do you have a meditation practice?

Adding this to the last post Gotta come back at this.

Is it a thought that I sense the being in others? Is it a projected thought? I also know that I project love onto others, seeing love in them. If being is (like) love, my reality is build on this. If so, how do I recognize the illusory nature of the projection? Where do I go from here? What do I "do"?

I know that I tend to favor knowing. Oh well. Let that shit go. @Inliytened1 I get that now.

What do you make of that? Being in superposition? I get that logically. "I" am not there yet (yes, it's not somewhere else but you understand I am under many layers of delusion). Imagine telling a savage you just met in the jungle how to get around in Manhattan. I mean, yeah, he will walk in Manhattan some day, but right now it fits more his survival to have a map of Brazil as he orients himself in Brazil to find a way to the airport to travel to NY. I get that you go to the foundation of "If" to show why the house has a skewed angle. I was like, "If the map of this trail is true, then I am stuck because this map clearly shows this trail going foward but here is a cliff which I have to get down to move forward (& I see the path going along down there) and I don't have the climbing gear to get down there. Can you give me a map to the next shop which sells climbing gear?"

@tuckerwphotography "We must live outside the system. Society can only be changed from outside as the system itself is corrupt." Reminds me of this: Or maybe green is just content with healing the members of its commune & living separate from society while not concerning itself about the continued enslavement of people by the system.

@Husseinisdoingfine "The people on the news lie to us. We see through them. They keep us in the system which corrupts the world. Let's live in our own little commune outside the system, cause every action in the system feeds the system."

Self-bias was recognized. I felt like "not loving them wholly" when I realized that I just connected to their being through their eyes.

Haha yeah, I am threatened by this. Beginning to deconstruct that resulted in hefty backlash lol. But coming back at it again. I realized that right after contemplating it in the feeling dimension. Where can you point for getting to know Atman? No answer is the best answer

@Michael569 This is so beautiful. ? Tears of joy, truly. I'm happy for ya. Asking for a friend of mine, the combination of coffee & migrane... what is that about?

@Hotaka It's the 2nd yoga book with the description "This book teaches you the secretive techniques of Kriya yoga, as practiced by the famous yogi [...]".

Have you seen Leo's advice for young people series? Don't jinx it

@Danioover9000 Regarding your meditation practice (and not Crysty): I tend to go into "no thought" mode after 30-40min of eye contact meditation. Then it is just effortless, flowing with less resistance. "Feels better" than resting in awareness for me. How's for you?

@Raptorsin7 Regarding op, what came to mind was that there are moments over the day where I feel how there is something in my experience that I can't make sense of: Something that I knew or had an explanation/interpretation/label for that now feels unknown, like having once taken off the glasses and now & then remembering how the world looked like without it... It's curious how the mind works.

Damn, this thread should be renamed to "roastin here".

On thought, being, love, separation, collapsing materialistic worldview. It is a thought that being can be seen in the black of someone's eyes. Being is beyond that. Everything here is being. It is limited to believe someone's being is in their eyes, their voice, their actions... Everything here - even that what I don't consider to be intelligent - is made of it. It is self-biased to think it is any other way. It makes me sad to have thought being is in someone's eyes, I don't know the being in others. I always know my being and project it. | Seeing the love in people is also a projection. Feeling them to be blessed and seeing them being made of love is a projection. The canvas can hold any color painted on it. What painting do I want to create? | It is a thought that being is inside me. Identification to be the body is underlying the assumption that is comes from inside - separation body & world. Is there any difference between the love that is projected & love that is felt; is there a difference between outside & inside? There is only subjectivity which is of course objective as there is nothing outside of my experience. So, can there be a difference between me & other? I feel my own radiation. I love myself. If I don't love me, I don't love others. All I can feel is my own radiation, whatever form it might take. Seriously, are there other beings? All what I can know is my being. If I feel others, it is my being. No really, is there a difference between LR and the person next door, their dog and my table? This is getting dangerous. Maybe another time. Is there a difference in modulations of knowing? It seems so. The rainbow is the modulation. Are the colors separate? It is the belief that it is separate. | What are the colors, canvas, brush, and air made of? Does the painting color itself? No, that would be a TV lol. Diversion masked as humor can also be self-deception. Maybe another time.

@Someone here Yeah, I currently write in the feeling journal about that. Tricky stuff. @Forestluv Looked it up. I journaled about thought 2 years ago. That definitely needs an update. Thank you for the suggestion
