Did you know produce have codes to let you know how they were grown. The code #4011 is for bananas and stands for conventionally grown with pesticides. #94011 means organically grown and #84011 for genetically modified (GMO). All produce starting with (9) means it's organically grown and (8) GMO. Bananas are not in the dirty dozen list, as say strawberries are, because of its skin protective layer, so consuming the conventionally grown ones are not as bad as consuming produce that are not protected by a thick layer of skin as in berries, celery, Spinach (most greens), apples, cherries and all peppers to name a few.

How can you experience yourself. You can only BE yourself.

his teachings are very good.

Too many back and forths. Too many contradictions. Too many different ideas and concepts. Too many ebb and flows. Too many mixing of the Absolute and the Relative which causes confusion. We speak in both terms simultaneously and it becomes a loop. We speak dually and non-dually in the same sentences. We have turned it into a Religion. We are arguing amongst ourselves based on our own belief systems, not based on Truth. What is Truth. Truth is Absolute. That which is the case. What is relatively true for you might not be true for me and we can't see from another's perspective because that is what it means to be an individual. I'm not concerned anymore about Awakening and Enlightenment. I'm going to focus on understanding how the mind works, the quantum field, quantum mechanics, the Truth about who I AM and understanding the nature of Reality. Not if I'm awake or not, not if I'm enlightened or not. Not beliefs, concepts and ideas about Reality but it's substance. The Tree of Life. Sacred Geometry. Quantum entanglement. I may not know, nor will I know everything, nor do want to. I'm not even trying to find peace and happiness and joy and running away from mental pain and suffering, because all of that will be a by-product of understanding my true nature. Curiosity. Understanding and embodying is more enlightening than trying to become what I already am. So, figuring that out and learning about that is what I'm more focused on than if shit is imaginary or not, if I'm the only consciousness or not. I am a Spiritual being and it is what I'm in love with. I'm in love with all of existence. I'm in love with Reality. I'm in love with the Universe. I'm in love with love itself for Love's sake. Not for what it can bring or give me. I've passed the stage of trying to find anything. There is nothing lost. There is nothing "out there" to be found. I wouldn't have existed otherwise. I wouldn't have gone through my experiences if it wasn't meant to be. I didn't choose to come here to forget everything just to remember anything. There is no reason for me to exist other than for existence's sake. No me, no world. Why am I trying to Awaken so I can see the Truth of what I already am. Whatever that is. Why am I trying to become Enlightened. A rose doesn't try to become a rose. It just is. I will continue to do Spirituality because I enjoy it, not for some means of becoming Awakened or Enlightened. Just like I enjoy cooking. I don't have to cook, I can go out to eat, to sustain my body, but I do it for the enjoyment of creation. To create a meal. Just because I can. For the art of creating. I watch movies because I can. To see others' creations. So, to be clear, i will still enjoy this forum, I will still post and comment. I will still engage, but only for it's sake and take from it what I chose or not. Not to go back and forth on some Spiritual mumbo jumbo and asking questions about Awakening or Enlightenment because it is futile. I will continue to read whatever books I choose, watch whatever videos and podcasts I choose, for it's own sake and to get better understandings on subjects I choose to expand on and what interests me as an individual. I will also keep in the background running, that whatever I chose to engage in, that it doesn't change who I am existentially and will not allow any belief systems, ideologies, world views or identities I've chosen to become, to make me forget that. That will be my primary focus, to acknowledge the presence already within me and to live my life from that place and to recognize that I cannot be what I can observe and that I am none of it but what is unfolding and manifesting from within that presence. Experiencing bliss and joy is also an appearance that is temporary and my true nature is also the witness of those states. Every experience and temporary feelings and emotions are also being witnessed as is the experience of becoming Awakened and or Enlightened. All of it.

@mmKayThis will fly over a lot of people's heads. They are not recognizing that attraction has nothing to do with their choice. It is instinctual. Your post is very intriguing and I've read somewhere something along those lines. A lot to do with evolution, primal instincts, genetics etc. It's fascinating.

Yeah, ok. Wait till I post my home-made one.

Ok, thank you for this.

@DefinitelyNotARobotBeautiful. As I was reading it, especially the part about feel into the understanding, not trying to understand but for understanding's sake, for a split second i felt something; it resonated deeply. Beautifully written. Thank you.

This is not a coffee substitute, it is it's own thing. Try it, especially if you're trying to cut down or eliminate coffee because of the caffeine. I drink coffee on occasion, so I'm not against it, but I think this is just as good or even better tasting. The cloves is what makes it taste like coffee. One is without the almond milk, the other is with the milk added. Just boil cloves (1tbl spoon)whole or ground, and one cinnamon stick or grounded (1tbl spoon) in a small pot with water for approx 10mins. Experiment with the time, less for milder taste, more for stronger taste. Add milk of choice if preferred.

Yes, yes, yes, free at last, free at last, free at last. Welcome home, even though you never left, only apparently so.

Thank you

Thank you.

Lol, that made me laugh. Wait, is this the same Hojo. You have a face now.

Thank you. That post was screaming my name. I think I went through the processes. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, I intuited that. That's why I realized I had to give up the Spiritual questions and talks about it for a while and silent the mind on that aspect of things and let things reveal itself to me as it did in the beginning. Now, it's just starting to get to a place of confusion, and it wasn't like this before. Everything was falling into place and now it's gotten to the point where i feel like I need to just chill. Yeah, no doubt. It's just, for me, that's not why I come here but it just turns out that way sometimes. I like that I can be a part of an online community and speak about life and interact with people from all walks of life and to hear others' perspectives on different topics and maybe learn some things. The bickering can get a bit amusing at times, and I know I myself do contribute to some of the bickering, maybe not so much in the Spirituality section as i'm more prone to asking questions in that section and to gain clarity and a better understanding. But for now, I'll just chill with the posts and questioning too much on Spirituality and let nature do it's thing, so-to-speak. I'll still comment here and there but that's about it. No more starting threads about it because I get more confused afterwards than before I asked anything. lol

Yes, I'm starting to see that. I respect this work too much and I'm highly devotional to my sense of being and in love with existence too much to be swayed like a chimpanzee on a limb going back and forth to not take responsibility for going my own path and choosing who I chose to guide me along the way, because I find that guidance is key but only when Source leads, and just as it lead me to this path, it will lead me to the guidance it sees fit and a pace it knows I can handle without being confused and gently lead me to the path of greater understanding.

Do you use Chapsticks? They are addictive; meaning the more you use, the more you need to use. These are highly toxic and are useless. Ever since I ditched them years ago and started to use a more natural alternative, my lips don't get as dry. Alternatively, this is what I do. On occasion, I rub my lips with raw honey and just leave it on till I suck them dry. I may exfoliate my lips with a brown sugar or coffee scrub w/ coconut oil or any good skin oil. The honey leaves them moist and not needing to moist my lips every frigging minute. The scrub gets rid of dead skin. I may use coconut oil to moisten, or this 100% cocoa butter stick. I keep it in my purse and use as needed which isn't too often and depending on the weather or if I've just eaten and wiped my lips. My lips aren't constantly dry like it used to be yrs ago when I used to use chapstick and couldnt do without it. Now I now why. It dries out the lips. I just use the cocoa butter stick as shown in the photo.

I didn't say that. I'm just saying as far as the Spiritual mumbo jumbo on Awakening and Enlightenment. I also engage in other topics here and have learnt a thing or two about life in general. I love Spirituality and enjoy talking about certain aspects. I've just come to the recognition that the aspects of Awakening and Enlightenment talks here can get very toxic, confusing and egoic meaning you just have to personalize it in alignment with your own level of awareness and growth. I still post in the health section and will still post Spiritual videos in the Powerful section I think may be of value to whomever wishes. I engage in dating and relationship topics and can probably learn a thing or two there and also just to be among like-minded people. As far as growing Spiritually, I will do that on my own however I see fit while still here but I won't be asking any enlightening or awakening questions nor make posts about it or engage in too much conversations on the topic. I don't consider the topic entertainment nor do I come here for entertainment. Only to engage and maybe broaden my horizons and get ideas, and maybe help someone in need of some advice or to get some myself on a particular situation i may need some help on. It is a lovely community and I find it to be of value if used in the correct way and to not get into disputes and unnecessary conflicts with fellow users, which I will try to work on in the future.

This is what I'm talking about with the dual and non-dual talk in the same sentence or dialogue. And the Absolute and the relative and the ego VS the real you. Who is the you, he's referring to and who is the "you" in the "you are an imagination too". I'm just pointing this out to make reference to my post. It get's confusing, not for the words themselves but for the interpretation of what one is trying to say or point to.

There are no mistakes in Reality,😊

I'm more conscious of my relations to these human matters.

I liked that. That's the whole point. I've awakened to awakening and have freed myself from the mumbo jumbo of it all. I just am and will always be that.
