Ok. Fine. Doesn't mean I'm not what thought and everything else is appearing from. This is all an appearance. Appearing within consciousness which is what I am. My true nature and it cannot be known, it can only be. It is what's present. Only here and now. Always was and always will be and so are you.

@ivankisswhy are you so intent in convincing God that it's not God. Why are you so intent in convincing us that we're not God. Either way, doesn't change what God is or isn't. Are you God trying to convince yourself you're not God. If we're not God then so be it, if we're God, so be it too. Reality isn't going around convincing itself what it's not. It just is.

Look into that annoyance deeper. No need to get annoyed if you know what you know.

You're welcome. We are here for each other.

Sorry to hear of your loss and I am deeply saddened to see that you are feeling guilt and regrets over his passing. I also recently, last year in July, had someone dear to me (my mom), passed over and her passing was extremely painful to bear. I could have also went down the path of regrets saying if and if and if and how I wish I was by her side or whatever. How I dealt with it was by starting a brief journal (here) and wrote to her as if she was still here receiving my letters and I kept her (kind of) alive in my thoughts and memories by posting pictures and poems and songs and videos about mons and reliving our times together. I kept that up for about 2weeks until her funeral and a few days after the funeral I decided to let the journal go and bid her farewell because I realized that nothing is going to bring her back and didn't want to live a life of pretence that she was still here in the physical. It helped me in times when I needed it and I let it go when I was ready. If I had lived through that experience with regrets and guilt I would not have been able to handle it as well as I did. I knew that that would have made me spiraled down the path of depression and, as she was my rock and a source of my strengths to keep this body alive, it was not in my best interest to view her passing with my selfish egoic regrets and instead to celebrate her life and to view it as what is. You are not seeing Reality as it is but what you wished it was. That will not do justice to your psyche and will bleed into other areas of your life. Try to understand that life is unfolding as it should. Have no regrets and feel no guilt because they are only coming from your need to control what you have no control over. Grieve however is best for you and personalize it to suit how you feel is in your best interest but so it doesn't make you feel regrets about anything as this is just a part of life's process. There's nothing you could have done to to change the outcome and nothing was your fault. Neither was it his. It's just what is unfolding and for you to use this as an opportunity to maybe see life from a different perspective and to open you up to other possibilities that may be allowing you to become more aware of what the Truth of existence is and how a loved one's passing may be just what you needed to see and become aware of your own divinity. I thought I would be a mess after my mom's passing but instead it made me realize more of what Love is not, and it's not holding on to life and attaching our own egoic desires and wants and regrets to it but to live freely in the knowing that what was, is not what is. Allow yourself this time for whatever comes up without judgement and to look at it as a part of the process that is unfolding within your unique sense of self and that it will pass and that there is nothing to be regretful for because your life is not a regret in Sources eyes.

Thank you and I do appreciate your thought-provoking posts. They open up the mind and allows for other perspectives one might not have seen through.

Great

@r0ckyreedI see you make some valid points but seem to be dismissive about the other sides. There are multiple ways of looking at things and i notice you are usually stuck in your own perspective. You tend to be very right-brained in your thinking and get stuck in your view points. 100 years ago maybe people would have argued against smart phones and point out all the ways it could be damaging to humans, yet it is the very thing that has brought you into my awareness. It's use has diminished some people's capacity to spell on their own but has also made tremendous advancements in other areas of life. Up down, up down, advance decline, advance decline, create destroy, create destroy, it's the cycle of life. Up to you to fuss about life's creation but it knows what it's doing.

The only part of my post that I was uncomfortable with and was debating on erasing or not, you quoted. Isn't that something. I will leave it there though because it still is valid to some degree.

A hammer is a tool and can be a weapon. We are doing word semantics here. A sharp pencil don't kill people but it can be used to. Stop the word games. We invented tool boxes for consumerism. Tools can be stored under the bed.

Fapping 365days in a year or no fapping 365days in a year are both extremes. Find the balance. Also, the Universe is masturbating to itself so no problems there. Yin Yang, baby. We go to extremes, we become obsessed, we become attached, we lose focus and we're seeking fulfillment. That's the imbalance. Embrace yourself.

Lol

Thank you for your wisdom. We so need it much on the forum.

Say that again!

15,

I think we can find good and bad in any tool They all serve a purpose; and depending on how we use them, can be of extreme value. We are advancing in technology faster than our brains can keep up; and for some, this can stunt their cognitive growth but can also be beneficial for some who are already highly advanced in certain areas and could use the shortcut in helping to develop other areas they are working on. For example, a lawyer who doesn't have the time to prepare his own meals may hire a personal chef to do the cooking for him so he can allocate his time to other important things. This will not make him a better cook and probably make him less knowledgeable in the art of food preparation and stunt his growth in this area but still grow the chef into a better cook (win-win for both). Consider the personal chef chatgpt who is doing all the cooking to allow the lawyer the time he needs to develop more advanced ways of practicing law that could be beneficial to society on a whole, (this is just one example out of many). People like Leo will wear the same shirt or duplicates of the same shirt over and over for his videos to free up the wasted time it takes to decide what shirt to wear. Simon Cowell does the same thing and would wear a white T-Shirt and blue jeans for every episode on American Idol. These people don't have time to be worried about petty things. Same with the use of Chatgpt. It can be highly beneficial for those who don't have time for lower tasks and who are working on more advanced things for the benefit of society on a whole and instead of using their time and energy to research things that Chatgpt can quickly do for them, they are advancing quicker and at a more productive pace in whatever they are trying to accomplish. This is pertaining to anyone doing anything at whatever level - not limited to astronauts or engineers or developers. While it is imperative to practice the skill of memorization, knowing phone numbers by heart isn't necessary for advancing a society that's already so technologically advanced. We have to move along and go at the pace at which Consciousness is expanding. It is expanding at a rapid pace and is developing ways that aids in this expansion and is using Chatgpt to help in this way. So it's up to us to seek out the benefits of this masterpiece of technology or get stuck and focus on ways it can be harmful. People's memory has caused them much trauma in their lives so maybe losing that capacity may work for them in the long run and as a result be more focussed in the moment instead of reminiscing about unimportant events and circumstances that stunts evolutionary growth.

Yes, honey.... You too. Ouch!

Awww thank you. I didn't like you either but now I looovvveeeee you. Lol.

My presence is enough. It penetrates through the whole forum. Anymore will cause an imbalance to topple over all you male egos and cause a war. Yeah, that's right! And ego talking. Hehe

Sob, Sob. I'm not going crazy but it's obvious I'm all there is and I'm doing all this. I'm crying now because I'm seeing how it's all me. I'm writing this only to not go mad and to keep the shit going. I need to. Or else i will go mad. I wish I never read some of the shit i read. I wish I never experienced some of the shit i experienced. It's obvious I've never done anything in my life. It's obvious there is no me. It's obvious I'm fish in water. It's obvious I know nothing, It's obvious I'm trying to articulate my message with precision, so I can feel like I'm writing to someone to read. It's obvious I'm doing all this and I'm not. It' so fucking obvious. You will comment and you will ask if I'm ok but it's so obvious. P.S. I just need time to process or not process this, so ill pretend as if I'm here or not here and go to sleep and deal with your comments or my own mind later tomorrow. Going to sleep or whatever now. I don't even know what to write. I feel funny writing to myself knowing I'm playing this fucking game with myself. Tomorrow you'all.
