Watcher of the Skies Genesis Watcher of the skies watcher of all His is a world alone no world is his own, He whom life can no longer surprise, Raising his eyes beholds a planet unknown. Creatures shaped this planet's soil, Now their reign has come to an end, Has life again destroyed life, Do they play elsewhere, do they know More than their childhood games? Maybe the lizard's shed its tail, This is the end of man's long union with Earth. Judge not this race by empty remains Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead? For now, the lizard's shed it's tail This is the end of man's long union with Earth. From life alone to life as one, Think not your journey's done For though your ship be sturdy, no Mercy has… From life alone to life as one, Think not your journey's done For though your ship be sturdy, no Mercy has the sea, Will you survive on the ocean of being? Come ancient children hear what I say This is my parting council for you on your way. Sadly now your thoughts turn to the stars Where we have gone you know you never can go. Watcher of the skies watcher of all This is your fate alone, this fate is your own.

@phoenix666 It's as simple as freefalling into the now. Let go into it and the now will show you it's source. I know saying that doesn't mean much, but experiencing it directly, Woa! It will clear up a lot of questions.

@phoenix666 This is quite important what you've said here. "Eyes open keeping you awake". I want to share something. Try taking wakefulness with eyes open to the extreme!!! Take it to a level of Hyper Wakefulness. Send an intention to the higher mind to become perfectly tuned into the absolute now. Striking the perfect cord with the moment of now and you feel everything come into perfect synchronization as pure consciousness. If you go even deeper into it, you won't be experiencing what your eyes are seeing regardless of whether they're open or not. Leo mentions being entranced in his latest video. This is what I'm talking about. It's very transcendent.

I have a feeling that higher intelligence transcends the physical plane of sticks and stones. But does influence it at times for reasons we don't understand..

I'm cooking supper vs. The body/mind is preparing nutrients for consumption. Two completely different views of the same reality.

@electroBeam This guy has an interesting story to share of how he started living the van life.

Welcome brother and come on in!

@electroBeam I started the journey when I was 25. It seems like just yesterday now. I seen then it was all a game but decided to play the game but get my life set up with what I needed, saving as much money as I could to retire as early as possible and live a simple life. I retired at the age of 50 and have no regrets. My 25 year career was building homes and I loved the work and the guys I worked with. I was mostly outside year round in the fresh air in nature watching the seasons change. I never minded going to work b-c I never considered it "work". So my suggestion: Find something worthwhile you love to do as a career. Save as much money as you can. Retire as early as possible and have no regrets.

@Shin I just watched the video and was thinking that a float chamber would probably work well here.

@Shin This may be a little different than astral projection but last night as I has falling asleep something pretty wild happened. I was really tired and just wanted to zonk out. So as I'm falling asleep in the darkness of my mind, it was like a curtain suddenly opened and all these amazing shapes and colors came pouring out. And just that fast it closed up again. I was so tired and it was so unexpected that I just thought to myself "well that was interesting" and fell off to sleep. But it was as if a portal had opened or something.

Teachers can only point to the gate. Each decides when to walk through it.

It's the flowers fragrance and color that spreads it's pollen.

I think Leo refers to that as " heavy lifting".

@zazed The dude was flogging himself with medium sized pinecones. Colorful and entertaining?

Right back at you both.

@JD8 Welcome. It's said that meditation is a forth state of consciousness. Waking, sleeping, dreaming being the first 3. If I had to describe what I experience in meditation I would say it is silently observing a still mind.

Embody the process unfolding. There is no deeper connection with life.

But what a powerful option that is. Undoing everything that is the individual. It's simply brilliant! Everything we have folded into being a person is unfolded before our eyes. This is where God awakens through us. It's not about the destination- it's the process!

@Real EyesYes it does Use a thorn to remove a thorn and throw both away.

"it is as futile as trying to assist an airliner off the ground by pulling on your seatbelt. Allen Watts

Everything happens in the absence of doing.. What better place to hide it!

Those magic moments where everything comes into total synchronization. You can feel awareness shift into perfect alignment with the true nature of everything.. Total completeness. The beauty of it is is that it is always accessible and takes no effort. The sun came out from behind a cloud and lit the room. I see no effort there.

@Dodo It may be even simpler than that. I remember times when I was young that suddenly everything was happening in this moment of now. There wasn't a yesterday or tomorrow or anything else. There was only this very moment that contained everything. It was effortless because I was a child.
