Wow. Love that

" If you’re at Yellow or above (or late Green), do you experience this as well? No. I experience the opposite. It's getting easier to connect. How do you solve it?" 1) I don't categorize myself or people in stages or colours 2) I am as curious as I can be. And if I see that something bothers me in others, I check where I can find this part within me and integrate it as best as I can. 3) I wear purple sock on my left, and yellow - green sock on my right foot. I switch the colours every three days, except the third day falls on a Thursday. In that case, I buy a cat instead 😺

They got it all wrong. I think what really happened is that he ate the toe nails from his left foot. Only from the left one, however. The ones from the right foot he soaked in urine, added his semen and then gave them to his disciples

Simple solution: Drink, smoke weed AND THEN play D&D

Uhh I like that one. My favorite isn't the same in English, but it comes down to: "It is what it is."

Everyone is unique. But if you still want to compare - why not compare with someone that doesn't have date? Someone that is sick? Someone that is lieing in the trenches of Eastern Ukraine right now, alone, slowly bleeding to death? Every expectation towards the date will create pressure and takesaways joy. If I was you, I would maximizing presence in the date without any further goal. That's it. Be as present as you can, in the moment. Rest will come as it happens.

What the purpose is to forget? What if the purpose of reality is exactly to forget why you're doing it. That would be quite a bummer

I imagine it indeed a bit like the matrix movie. There's structured information, a code, a vibration and I can't read all of it. But "it" - God, Universal mind, brahman, whatever, whoever - can.

Yeah I know the feeling of "everything is for me" you describe. I think it was @Hojo who once posted here sth like "reality is a simulation constructed around you". And in my experience, the simulation reads both - the surface (what you do and say) and the "hidden" layers (fears, hopes) that you are not (fully) conscious of. Marvelous how this works! "The point of the magic seems to only be about the recognition of it itself. The recognition that this is magic." Love it! Alan Watts sits in the corner, hears, this nods and smiles 😁 "Somehow, I can give myself goosebumps on command. This might actually be worth looking into because it suggests a strong link between the prefrontal cortex and the autonomic circuits. Maybe spiritual perception is enhanced when this link is strong. Or maybe that's just another story trying to understand the magic. Or maybe it's both" I only know one other person that can do that. Don't know what the physiological reason is, but I bet my ass that everyone can increase his/her sensibility to mystical, spiritual, magical, psychic experience significantly and sustainably. For me the best methods have been fasting, Vipassana, body awareness, Yoga, holotropic breath work, psychedelics (including weed) and simply being present, no self (listening without the thinking, looking with judging, consciously walking).

Nice story

Embrace the randomness

Of course, you're working with limited tools. Words only without any body language, eye contact etc

The thing with the song, I had sth like that maybe 50-100 times. Really SPECIFIC stuff. Once, I had long hair and thought "would be fun if I just shaved it" and then moments later Spotify played a song where a a guy said "just shaved my head". Two days ago, I was at the train station, waiting & thinking about the limitless of life and how @Breakingthewall always talks about it. Spotify plays a song and the guy sings"we don't put a limit on life" LOL Re the interaction: Yeah I had many of those, too. In recent months and years it becomes more. Significantly increased in everyday life after deep Vipassana states. Guess they always have been there, just was not aware. Like these pics where you potentially can see two motives. It's sometimes like Hunger games, where sponsors can drop stuff to help you. It's sometimes information, or a opportunity, or a friend. Or other times a challenge, or a joke...whatever can come up in life. Makes my life very much gamey in recent times 🤣 And I think becoming more conscious is then realizing that you're playing with yourself 🃏

The same. It threatens core believes we have been taught since... Decades? Centuries? It's not part of the current set of believes and assumptions that form identy, so ANYONE experiencing sth else is WRONG! Identity as "that's who I am, that's how the world works" and changing that identity feels like dying in a (mental) sense, so I rather attack a threat than "die". Even if I could greatly benefit from cooperating with such a source... but I need to be aware and conscious enough to realize, to feel that potential benefit.

That won't help. You need experiences to change attitude, not words. They will (likely) only trigger defense mechanisms (guilt, shame) and push a person deeper into victim mode. "What? It's my fault? Can't be! I am going to my fortress and man my walls to shoot anyone claiming that. This will show everyone how great I am"
