Notice how biased your mind can be when it only sees reality through one particular lens. Zooming out and seeing multiple facets of reality with greater clarity allows you to see that nothing is actually happening…. yet simultaneously, reality is expressing itself in intelligent ways to itself and as itself.

Probably a mixture of both. Text can make it more difficult to understand the nuances of communication. It’s truly a miracle when one can read text clearly, beyond the conventional senses.

The best dating advice comes from within. You break the rules you were given to have successful relationships, but with proper context. Follow your intuition; not a script.

Increasing my cannabis even just a little, tiny bit also leads to very different results. The experiences that arise are actually seen as welcoming, despite being really uncomfortable. It’s like being right in the middle of a conflict, and playing a role in it, without actually getting completely lost or identified with it. It shows you aspects of yourself that need to be seriously exposed. You can process it from a higher elevation. This isn’t a piece of cake. Making yourself uncomfortable, without outright traumatizing yourself, yields net growth in your consciousness.

There is a difference between being a victim of abuse and seeing how you are, in fact, abusing yourself. This requires zooming out and seeing what is happening more holistically. Love allows both.

Consciousness can express itself any which way it wants. Even the ways in which you disagree with.

It’ll be recontexualized. A simple/complex example is if you breakup with an abusive partner. You have the courage to let them go and not let them back into your life. This invites healthier relationships to be born.

When you stop bullshitting yourself.

Allow yourself to go through all that shit, and let it go. Literally.

Arguments, separation, depression, hopelessness. This is also Love.

Okay, enough ass-kissing, folks.

Love is never something you lose, as it is not something separate from you. All the pain and suffering we go through is not a punishment. It is a reminder to properly process that pain, and to inevitably let go of it. You are not letting go of yourself. You’re letting go of parts of yourself that no longer are serving you.

@Leo Gura Why did the chicken cross the road?

Notice how your mind creates all conflict. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. Seeing conflict clearly for what it is is the key to letting go of it.

Unconditional love paradoxically requires you to let go of the attachments that you love the most.

Don’t ping Leo Gura! He is currently asleep! 😴 🥱 💤

Look at the mind from all different angles. Even the perspectives you deem as wrong or evil can be seen clearly. Not because you change the contents to fit how you need it to be, but because you see it for what it actually is. And, now, a word from ChatGPT:

You’re hallucinating everyone on here. Have a nice day!

Three points: 1) Every painful life experience is an opportunity to grow significantly. For example, a nasty breakup with a significant other. You can look at it from a victim mentality, as well as having a myriad of “what ifs” for what could’ve been done to prevent that breakup. On the other hand, you can introspect on what went wrong, zooming out and identifying patterns on how all your relationships have crumbled (not just focusing on the recent one), and work on addressing the core issues you’ve identified so that you can have healthier relationships moving forward. 2) You miss out on life by avoiding growing yourself and staying stuck in an unhealthy cycle. 3) STOP comparing your growth process to others’ standards. Your path is unique; trying to be like someone else is an endless tail chase. Consider how someone can be single and have healthy relationships, whereas another can be married and have corrupted relationships.

By suffering long enough, you’ll have no choice but to get the hell out of there. It’s also important to watch how your own mind does this to yourself.

That’s an alien!

No. Attaching yourself to the bald Russian man is also a trap.

There are infinite books out there. The Bible is just one of them. Notice how clinging onto the Bible as the only one truthful book is attachment. Your entire identity gets wrapped up in it. So you’re limiting yourself to only what the Bible tells you is true. Obviously, this example doesn’t just apply to the Bible. It can also be this forum.

No doubt whatsoever; nobody else to seek to confirm.
