RIP Australia. Can confirm, Australia's mental health being in the toilet is due to economic issues. Cost of living here, just groceries even, is horrid. We have many companies/businesses that capitalised on the lockdowns. The government handed out cash to business to keep them afloat during our major lockdowns. Many businesses unethically claimed and took the cash with no real entitlement. Coupled with our larger companies raising prices outside of inflation just to increase profit at the peoples expense... it hasn't been a good time ! Materials used in construction really killed us.

Have they discovered the cause yet? I do always wonder if hackers will target the power grid, as it works with its own grid code. While its not a programming language, I have been alerted to large vulnerabilities through my friends in government (Australia though).

Yes indeed, which is why, if you noted my final disclaimer, this would be evident. My intention was to frame this triad in a way that others can use to assist in steering them back on their chosen path. Hence why, I posted in this forum, and added the last point. The gap in growth amoung the forum users is great, and leads to lots of confusion when attempting to grasp higher concepts. In particular, integrating matter reality with spirituality. My post aims to assist with the next steps they need to master 💜

Experience is existence teaching you, in the moment.

@SQAAD until you become aware your beliefs create your reality, you will be stuck in this loop This is a consistent recurring pattern showing up. And you are an active participant in its manifestation. I would suggest you stop pursuing women, and really delve into where meaning for you sits in your life. Work on yourself. This is the only thing you can control.

How can logic recognise a state of consciousness? It is through an emotion, a feeling, that you recognise a state of consciousness, or a change in state. Logic cannot do this because it is bound by ego, and ego cannot do this because it locked by its own identity. This is why I feel Leo needs to include feeling in his conception of truth. It is a key missing piece.

Hear, hear! The privilege in the fact that these individuals have the time to overthink/overanalyze to this extent... Zero appreciation & gratitude. Low consciousness snaking in on itself, like a parasitic ouroboros.

@BlessedLion good topic! Positive masculinity needs to be celebrated more 🙏 The topic is very much entwined with power. Men have power over women in the physical domain. The concept of this is lost on most men though, and is evident in their shock at how much fear around this women have. This fear is feminities undercurrent, and lies at the heart of connection to the feminine. I genuinely feel most of what positive masculinity represents, is a man who is fit to wield this power. Masculinity needs to be worthy to have this power, as the burden of responsibility is so great. Unfortunately, it usually takes a man to enter into his later phases of age and life to be worthy. Not always, but usually ☺️

I always just thought it was a change in camera focal length. EG

Lots of fear here. Are you afraid of death? Or the dying part? Noting you are operating from a belief here. Your beliefs precede your experience. Experience does not precede belief, despite what you are taught. If you believe what you say, so it shall be. TBH though this is simply displaying a large attachment to the meat-sac you are currently wearing. It is important to experience death as it should be.

I share this opinion

ie the Thinking Machines of Dune Shits all about the perils of AI, and not just AI taking over - Using a machine to think for you removes humanities essential nature.

Wondering why this topic was moved from the mental health subforum to this one? This is a pathology. It really doesn't have anything to do with women

Do you have any sisters? Women close to you? You are looking at this through a single lense. You will need to consider the challenges women face, else you will be alone for a long, long time.

I have a different way of dealing with stress. Previously, I required structure. Stress/anxiety fueled my tasks. I had to ensure time to decompress and disconnect. I allowed lots of free time to be used in this way. I no longer require any sort of disconnection to be able to handle stress. When I have a very full and extreme day, I always mentally list the items over and over. As I do this, I visualize and attempt to embody the feeling of already having accomplished the thing. I start the day & immediately begin this visualization process. When I can see within my mind the thing I am trying to accomplish (it helps I work in construction, as this can be seeing the rough in complete/structural steel erected/slab poured). The feeling of accomplishment (dopamine really) is so strong, I use this energy to fuel the focus I need to perform without anxiety and force, no stress. This requires a lot of organization & trust within yourself. So, to enable this process without stress, I would format structure: Plan/Prioritize > Schedule > Task > Visualize > Action. This is repeated for each action item on your agenda. I often visualize and swim in the feeling of each small action finished. The feeling of sitting on the couch at the end of the day, eating a great meal. It feels like daydreaming. Take a breath, imagine you doing the thing, release & execute. In this way you bring your entire being into the task. It no longer feels like effort. You fall in love with the act. Visualizing assists as it lowers the stress and anxiety of intensely focused tasks, as you are essentially brainwashing yourself into thinking tasks are done. I used to utilize anxiety & stress to accomplish what I needed throughout the day. The downside to this method was I needed to 'disconnect'. I have more presence, coherence & clarity with the visualization method. Energy is conserved, focus is like a laser

This - Nilsi nuking the thread 💜 Valid points regarding how you approach Leo & his typical responses (in another reply). Just letting you know I have witnessed this repeated over and over

I find many parallels between wanting, desire and my meditation practice. In the past, as I accomplished and satisfied desires, I often was left with a sense of emptiness. I disliked this, so I filled it with pursuit. I then began meditation. Accomplishing everything I want gave way to the same emptiness meditation presented. When I sat with the emptiness, the Divine really stepped in. All stripped away so I was ready to be filled with something Else. The trick for most: don't get caught in the loop of endless pursuit!

The use energy & create.

So are you saying you think optimism is a result of ignorance? Or dismissing negative aspects? Your anecdote isn't illustrating to me how positive thinking leads to a lack of epistemic integrity. I feel like you are saying delusion leads to a lack of epistemic integrity. Positive thinking doesn't inherently mean dismissing solid, logical deductions. Yet your statement is phrased in a way that implies positive thinking leads to this foregone conclusion. "Positive thinking leads to a lack of epistemic integrity" Are you sure you aren't assuming anything positive cannot be truthful, knowledgeable, unbiased & rigorous?

Please accept my gratitude for your vulnerability & passion! This took immense courage, well received Consider this me swinging an e-frisbee of positive energy right back at you !

All this confirms for me is Teal Swans ginormous shadow and ego. She may have clairvoyant abilities. The other side of this coin is their ability to also blind her to deception. Ego is a huge issue for her. If she had true and pure loving connections to all those around her, either herself or her followers would have intuitively known something and raised this. If they knew and chose not to act this points to misalignment in her energy/connection with those close to her. She has some fantastic things to say, but she is not enlightened. She specialises in shadow work, so it's no wonder she herself has this issue. We heal in others what we need to heal in ourselves.

I think it is a very positive development, these recent blog posts that lean toward empathy, understanding, compassion. These inclinations are higher energy, coherent & will unify all in a more positive way. Bringing us closer to amalgamating consciousness!

Agree with this. It aligns for me more as truth. My breakdown was just an attempt to put to words my understanding for any others who require a reframe <3

I completely agree. This is just so obvious when I enter coherent meditative states. It simply smacks you right in the face when on psychedelics. Because I view all as consciousness - even a tree - I don't accept when Leo says 'A tree is not a feeling. I don't know any clearer way to explain it.' This is why I raised the issue of feelings being defined and framed wrong. That humans have a limited view on what I feeling is. I raised in a previous post - I view feelings as simply forces arising from thoughts 'electrical impulses' in synapse, with feelings being the 'magnetism' that arises similarly to how electricity through a wire induces a magnetic field. I just think we haven't even tried to understand feelings in any other limited way than some wishy washy feminine crap. Feelings are just this force that induces coherence in a system. That system could be parts that give rise to photosynthesis of a tree. Or simply someone having the impulse to give another person a hug. To my understanding, it is feelings that create coherence in us, which is the tap into ultimate intention & creation.

Any-who back to the original topic at hand! I argue that feelings are a power source or propellant for self will. Anger over exploitation - take action. Affection for someone - action. Love - care & sacrifice. However I do feel that will can overpower feelings. You may break up with someone despite loving them due to incompatibility, or you're tempted to cheat but maintain honesty to your lover. So you choose to take a course of action counter to your feelings. This would be an execution of logic. However to break the above down further: the decision to impose self will to override feelings is the result of the feeling. To impose self will to override feelings is a drive to avoid a feeling. So there is a feeling behind the feeling. So what appears as a logical action, is driven by a feeling - avoiding the feeling of 'anxiety' that may result in lack of action. This is why I feel even logical acts are motivated by feelings. Cold logic in a detached way is an attempt to control, maintain order. Avoid chaos. Also an attempt to avoid anxiety “Reason is the slave of the passions.” — Hume
