@tuku747 Accepting

I deny denial

How we perceive others is often inaccurate and at least partial

I have mixed feelings about pot. Didn’t smoke for 3 months. Only smoked maybe 3 times in past 8 months. Smoked yesterday because I made a decision to do so. Feeling mixed feelings. I would like to go 12 months without it. Day one is today. My main thing is to use any of these substances consciously. Smoking is bad regardless. I used to have a pot addiction. So my relationship with it is iffy. I think used consciously is a good substance.

As a Qigong teacher I approve this thesis

i am very loving and compassionate but I don’t put on a show

Some degree of conflict on forum is normal and healthy.

It’s interesting. I am realizing how deep, vast and challenging this work is. What would reality be if you didn’t have any of these frames? No Buddhism? No hinduism? No Christianity? No science? No Islam? No Judiasum? No isms. What would spirituality be? What would reality be? What would God be? A big problem is you folks have these frames that that are reinforced by social matrix norms, thought leaders, culture, group think, and years of hearing the same ideas over and over again. You think you are open minded but actually you are being dogmatic. Then you demonize the tools, thoughts, concepts that exist outside these wall gardens you create and think people who have answers to things you don’t are just being arrogant. How would you know? Maybe nobody is cold and nobody is warm. Or, maybe some people are actually warm.

No, You likely are just miserable for the time being. But, all things shall pass.

I think it goes like “An Awakened Person”

I woke up with the power out, Not really somethin to shout about. Ice has covered up my parents hands, Don't have any dreams don't have any plans. I went out into the night, I went out to find some light. Kids are swingin from the power lines, Nobody's home so nobody minds I woke up on the darkest night, Neighbors all were shouting that they Found the light - "we found the light." - Shadows jumpin' all over my walls, Some of them big, some of them small. I went out into the night I went out to pick a fight with anyone. Light a candle for the kids, Jesus christ don't keep it hid! Ice has covered up my parents eyes, Don't know how to see, don't know how to cry. Growin' up in some strange storm, Nobody's cold, nobody's warm. I went out into the night, i went out to find some light. Kids are dyin' out in the snow, look at them go - look at them go! And the power's out in the heart of man, Take it from your heart put it in your hand. What's the plan? what's the plan? Is it a dream? Is it a lie? I think i'll let you deceide. Just light a candle for the kids, Jesus christ don't keep it hid! Cause nothing's hid, From us kids! You ain't foolin' nobody - with the lights out! And the power's out in the heart of man, take it from your heart put it in your hand. And there's something wrong in the heart of man, You take it from your heart and put it in your hand! Where'd you go?!

The point is not the emotions. The point is, if you haven’t tried a technique you don’t know what it is.

@Salvijus Make up whatever you want in your mind ?

@Matthew85 Why are you taking a single post as his total understanding?

Experienced

Who locked this? He might not be awake but we can discuss him? Like what’s going on?

Okay I will listen to frank tang. I never really gave him a chance

@Karla I don't know. I think they can for sure. 5meodmt is still a tricky one for me. It makes me feel like I am stuck in a single moment of perfection forever and kind of freaks me out

I saw a funny meme. A girl with coloured hair shows up to the therapist. The therapist calls their wife "Honey, we are going to be rich!" just joking of course. Enlightenment, spirituality, etc are buzz words for a good chunk of our culture.

I imagine them lol

@Breakingthewall Healthy shame is important to feel when we self reflect and can at a role in personal development, maturing, and growing. However, toxic shame will arrest our development and ruin our lives.
