@zeroISinfinity Sure. Nice story. You probably fool a lot of people with it.

@PureRogueQ The mind which can be killed is the master. @zeroISinfinity Doesn’t matter. You matter. Always up to you.

‘Pointless’, in the utilization it is believed to summarize life, arises of the finite mind (parallel of life, or experience). It’s opposite thought would be a point, meaning, purpose, which you create as the creator, like all else. You’re free to focus on either. If there were a point, you would not be free. Neither thought is other than appearance, and the resonance is felt in either case. Why would the lower vibrationally resonating thought be focused upon? Because it is believed to be the lessor of resistance, relative to a belief, a conditional thought about self, yet to be aligned in interpretation & thus released. That is so in either case, and is a mute ‘point’. Fear is in the un-inspected closet, which inspected, is always empty. How this is devasting for your psychology if you are a male who should be driven forward nobody knows. Should implies duality, specifically, that a second entity has authority over you. Psychology is a thought, not a thing. ‘Devastating’ is the discord of the self referential thought / belief. Projecting that discord onto ‘psychology’ is emotional suppression. Un-inspected, the loop persists. The resistance is to the fact you are already ‘driven forward’. Awareness is curative. Dreamboard, the emotional scale, and expression, are creation made simple, effortless, and in-joy-able.

We are vibrational beings in a vibrational universe. Change the way you think of yourself and others, align interpretations, and you change your frequency & experience.

It varies, as purpose is of the spheres, but the resonance does not vary, as it is with the ‘fabric’ of the spheres. ?? ?

You pretty much got it. Thoughts are infinite intelligence, awareness of itself, as itself, for itself, through the lens of the finite mind. Potentiality...concepts. Infinite imagination...images. One appearing as if two. A single aligned thought arising in a quieted mind, focused upon, consciously creates.

What is my deepest, truest, most unique and most aligned desire...what is my vibrational proximity to the manifestation of it, and how do I close the gap.

@Cepzeu Feelin the love. ??

We gotta recognize that perspective doesn’t feel good, and thus isn’t serving you. You could make a clean cut with by checking in with what’s actual. You’re not really stuck, you could call and quit right now. Obviously probably not a wise move in terms of action, but very wise in recognizing the perspective doesn’t feel aligned (good) because it isn’t true. You could sooth that perspective to a better one, by ‘listening’ to feeling....’ok, clearly that feels off...am I really stuck here, will this be the only job I experience for the rest of my life...clearly no...do other people change jobs, change perspectives...yes...’ You can also change the channel of perspective so to speak, to appreciation. ‘What can I appreciate about this...where is this headed....well I am learning some stuff...I’m making money...and this can lead to getting a degree...and a job I want more, that is more stimulating, more preferred, and comes with a higher income, maybe something even beyond that, why not’. You can also change perspectives existentially...(wiggles fingers, moves feet)...’ok, I’m not like, literally, really, actually stuck here’. Any which way you get there, ‘there’ is a change in how you’re interpreting your situation...a change which feels better to you. Why is that so important? It is the opposite of anxiety. When you’re feeling great, aligned, flowin, you’re on top of the world, unstoppable, “problems” seem insignificant, solutions abundant, enthusiasm rampant & boundless. I suggest getting really familiar with the emotional scale, and here’s why. When you think in terms of “I’m stuck”, you’re thinking about yourself - notice the thought is very literally “I” = “stuck”. Really appreciate this. Words which follow “I am” or “I’m” are powerful. Saying “I’m stuck” is going to be met with the true nature ‘saying’...”uh, the hell you talkin about my man...you’re free and you got me, infinite intelligence, guiding’. What you’re feeling is that discord with the true nature. Unfortunately, (I totally did it too) instead of listening to that guidance of how you feel, you labelled it, ‘anxiety’... and continued focusing on the same or similar perspectives of discord. Again, I feel for ya, I been there. Tried multiple dr’s and medications until I finally said ‘alright fuck it this ain’t workin, it’s my attitude, my perspective and I’ll change it’. Again, why the emotional scale? Look at the difference in terms of interpretation..... a) “I’m stuck”. Feels terrible but that’s all there is to it. It’s not me, it’s the job, the work, my situation, circumstances, it’s taxing and sucks. b) (looks at scale....) (hopefully more helpful in terms of aligning thought & feeling...than it is a ‘text wall’...and I don’t believe lightening up and having fun with life ever hurt anyone) ‘Ok, where am I at on the damn scale....uh let’s see...fucking hopeless & depressed...sooo....I guess that’s powerlessness...am I feeling jealousy?...the hell’s that even mean or have to do with anything?...if you mean do I see people living carefree happy lives with all the shit they want, doin the things they want...and I also want that, then, ya, ok, I’m feeling jealousy...there’s a lot of shit I want to have & experience too, ya.... am I angry?....I’d kinda rather put boxing gloves on than read this shit...ya I’m angry...and yes, I’m discouraged...blame, oh God yes, totally not my fault...why folks don’t need a class & a license to have kids is beyond me...and what the hell are schools and teachers doing anyways, total pyramid scheme...does this make me worry, uh, hell ya it does...I wanna be doing what I wanna be doing and this shit ain’t easy, feels like I’ll waste my life trying to get there....do I feel doubt...well, ya...I doubt shit’s gonna work out honestly, sometimes I doubt I can persevere and make it through this...do I feel disappointment, uh, only everyday....I fuckin wake up disappointed with the shit I gotta do...seems like things should be way easier, and there’s just way too much goin on, what the hell’s my life purpose, how the hell am I gonna make enough money when I’m young and don’t have the qualifications & experience of those I’m competing with?!...who the hell wants to work in the first place, doesn’t even seem worth it....do I feel overwhelment...psh, did Genghis Kahn like sex?...hell ya I’m feelin overwhelment...is it frustrating, do I feel irritation & impatience...would you like a slap in the face right now?...uh, yes, yes I do...does it leave me feeling pessimism?...ya...I don’t see it getting better....do I feel boredom sometimes?...the fucks that got to do with anything?... ya, I totally do though... sometimes I got energy like King MF Kong and I’m sitting here doin nothin and it’s like I’m not focused or something, and it’s lame and I don’t know what to do about it really....do I experience contentment? Ah fuck no. Well. Maybe. Sometimes I read somethin, or hear somethin in a video or whatever, and I kind get this whole “The Now” stuff, I feel it sometimes, this peace...can I ‘dial into it’...well, this scale’s turning out to shed a little light...starting to see how focusing on certain perspectives that don’t feel good has a sort of build up of tension effect, and expressing like this releases some of that tension, feels a little better I guess...kinda lame and feminine but whatever, I’m kinda done with what ain’t workin and really just wanna feel good...starting to see how this scale clears the tension out in a way...and ya, I can see how expressing like this, and being where I am, dialing into seeing, hearing, feeling, relaxing the body...maybe recognizing some perspectives just don’t feel good & choosing better feeling thoughts does ....kinda...feel like ...contentment...so, ya...hopeful though?...I don’t know...still gots the same problems....but maybe that’s the point of contentment...I can feel the “problem perspective”...I do kinda say everything is a “problem” a lot, and it doesn’t feel good...there are times I’m not focused on problem perspectives...and ya, I feel the difference...I could slow down a pinch and feel my way to some hopefulness I suppose...maybe I could use a break...get away for a weekend, a few days...clear my head...maybe I’ll just schedule something, anything like that...and look forward to it...ya...I can feel that now, I can recognize hopefulness...I don’t know or understand really why I’m reluctant to feel good, but ya, I can feel hopefulness....shit can get better, apparently lots of people go through difficult times and it doesn’t last forever...can I feel positive expectations? Optimism?...well, at this point, what choice do I have really?...I pretty much have to...I gotta focus in some better feeling ways, I’ve really had enough of this stress and tension, and I do kinda wanna get this ‘guidance’ of feeling thing...this ‘magic of alignment’ feeling..ya...enthusiasm, eagerness, happiness....ok, honestly, that feels like a reach...but your gd dreamboard thingy does come to mind...and again, there is stuff I want, money, relationship maybe, a house maybe, some travel...it’s crossed my mind before, the idea of self employment, starting a business...not sure what that’d look like, but I can kinda see how the dreamboard serves this purpose...how I might wake up in disappointment...but then I’m gonna see that board, with all the shit I want on it, and I can think about that instead and feel good about it, I can relax and play a little, fantasize a bit, as if I already have it and am feeling as such...I mean, what do I got to lose at this point?...can’t get much miserabler, gotta change something...people are always saying stuff like “be the change you wish to see”, and “you create your own reality”...and ya, maybe sometimes I’m hot headed, close minded, and ya, I feel it when I am, so maybe some change in perspective and some “alignment” is in order for me...can I feel passion right now?...the fuck man, come on, get serious...my life totally suc-...oh wait...that’s one of those not good feeling perspectives ain’t it....passion’s kinda about that dreamboard ain’t it...starting to get those lists you mentioned...it makes sense...I do focus more on what I don’t want, than what I do want...and filling up a “dreamboard” with what I do want... as “wishful thinking” and airy-fairy-ish as it is...uh, ya, I guess it makes some sense...maybe all that stuff, all those experiences I actually do want would come into focus...from me seeing them, and kinda, effortlessly focusing on them each day....I can see how passion could arise the more I dial in on that board, into what I really want....I can see how thinking all this shit in my head ain’t working...and how it could “unfold” on the board, and I can see how that would feel good and even empowering.......joy, appreciation, empowerment, freedom, love...come on bruh, be real...that’s just what lucky rich genetically superior people sa-....oh snap...that was me focusing on the perspectives that don’t even feel good again....ok...so maybe there’s something to this “reality’s a dream”...and.... a dreamboard, focus, and aligning thought with feeling....MAYBE...but why the fuck not... I guess I can see there is momentum to focus, and it would be pretty easy to focus on what I want and feel good about it seeing it everyday on my board....hell...I could take a picture and even when I’m at work and school...doing shit I don’t honestly love....I could mentally be focused more on where I’m headed...what I want in a bigger picture....focused on what feels good....and I could appreciate, a little, this bullshit I gotta do to survive, as it does make some sense this, is me on my way to, that....and I can kinda grasp how I can imagine & fantasize...and feel that...and connect it with this, which is becoming that, and kinda of is that already really....a bit....I mean, what the hell else am I gonna do?...argue against my own joy?...just to focus in ways that don’t feel good....to me? Kinda had enough of that...joy’s sounding pretty good...maybe I do, kinda, care about it, about how I feel. Still the best speech I’ve ever heard.... Still the single most effective (and simplest) tool I’ve seen... https://duckduckgo.com/?q=focus+wheel+app&t=ipad&ia=web

Imagine you did prove reality isn’t finite. That proof would be an individual separate something, or, finite. How could you prove that anything can’t be something else? It’s sort of a hang up of a double negative in thought. Like, how could you prove a horse isn’t a unicorn? You can’t, cause it already isn’t. Perhaps the opposite approach would be of interest....reality isn’t finite, how can he prove that it is? He can’t, because it isn’t. It’s possible this leads him to question his experience a little more.

@How to be wise ‘Material world’ is a thought. “It” is you! Again, if interested, trace the accusations to their root. You will realize what’s being said.

@How to be wise Absolute & relative truth is the aforementioned dualistic thought. That someone does or doesn’t ‘become enlightened’ is a pretty strict thought attachment to the materialist paradigm. Similarly, the accusations against ‘me’. The ‘wrestling match’ so to speak is with thoughts, of a me perhaps, but not with a me in actuality.

In this case, you’re referring to an idea of nothing, but if you inspect that idea, there isn’t actually an idea of nothing ‘there’ at all. Nothing can not ‘help you’, nothing is you. It’s not really a matter of ‘proof’, but of expression, willingness, earnestness, and interest. Direct experience vs believing thoughts as labels is key. The ‘ruminating brain’, as a concession, is fueled by resistance of feeling, which is essentially unwillingness to express. The brain is literally made of unconditional love, and the discord is the focusing on conditions. Analogously, it’s like having eaten misunderstanding innocently, and yet being reluctant to allow it up and out, to release and understand. The perspective that someone ‘attains’ enlightenment is the materialist paradigm, or, consciousness being a product of some thing or someone separate from consciousness. It’s reducing enlightenment to possession, a thing you get or acquire (attain). Those are yet-to-be-inspected-thoughts, not post-inspection actuality. Someone doesn’t ‘attain’ or ‘become’ something or some state, the true nature is already the Truth. Seeking enlightenment is a misnomer. Inspecting what is actual, what is fundamentally true, genuinely, authentically, honestly, is the way....to what is true, or, truth.

@Endangered-EGO Awesome. ?? Expression (rather than any suppression, repression or bypassing) really is the key. What makes it tough is the thoughts which arise about past or future can be kinda ‘attention getting’. Keep relaxing the body over and over, gently focusing on breathing from the stomach. Allow feeling to come up and out, without resisting how you feel. Allow thoughts to come and go, also without resisting. It’s all so worthwhile, as a big dose of what you do want typically follows such allowing & releasing. Also, kinda ‘btw’... the emotional scale is quite natural. Notice how you went from anger to blame ?? and then naturally mindfully to contentment ??. It can function as a guide, a scaffolding, so we express purposefully with some rhyme or reason behind it, thus lowering the ‘getting lost in the thought story’ potential. Excited for you man, Godspeed. Don’t forget about that dreamboard. ?

That’s the veiling story, the one of you in time, the separate physical object, the idea of you & yesterday. Is it necessary? Questions can be asked in more clarity without a story influencing, coloring. Liberation. Notice the distinction of identification, or, identifying, of what happens & what happen to you. Exactly, it isn’t. As you so poignantly said, the discord was felt with the thought, not the past. How offensive, perhaps. Yet, to...who? No one ever hires a lawyer for more suffering. If the question were how do I create a website, you’d read, understand, directly experience, and create that. No biggie, no need to reinvent the wheel, millions have already done this. Or, conversely, one could focus on what doesn’t feel good, not look into better feeling, remain ignorant, misunderstanding, and creating more suffering. Similarly, ‘how do I let go, express, move forward’... ‘how do I create reality’?...The emotional scale. Always up to you. Keep expressing your way up the scale, imo. Direct experience: A thought. Not a past. If there’s an argument at this end of this convo, it is in your favor. Well being, liberation, alignment as one, not two (awareness & idea of you). Indeed, blame is a higher vibration than anger. With so much desire to create, why stop there? Don’t fear or resist feeling, allow, feel, express, clear it out. ‘For me’ is a textbook example of the thoughts which come and go freely in meditation. Nothing implies anything is “your fault”... sans a thought. Meditation could be said to be sitting, breathing, and doing basically nothing but relaxing, emptying, letting go, clearing out. How can that be the cause of anything? Perhaps there is resistance, in the sense, a refusal to express and or let go? If however meditation is deeply believed to be harmful, simply don’t meditate. Try something else. You might find there are a lot of ‘something else’s’ to address or fix a problem, which circle back to focus and feeling, and the letting go of the perspective that there is a problem.

There is no duality here, but thought makes it so. @How to be wise What if they let those discordant judgmental dualistic thoughts go? What remains? If enlightenment got moved to a mountain top or something, I must’ve missed the memo.

@allislove That’s it. ♥️

Keep in mind the point of experience, is experience. Thoughts arise and there is some sifting & sorting, some believing here and there and some dispelling of beliefs as well, but unconditional infinite intelligence doesn’t undermine it’s own intention, which is ‘your’ experience. This, right now. Not future results, but perhaps now inspirations of what this can be. Think a bit bigger picture, a few steps farther into this inquiry, desire, and or perspective. What if everyone in the class were granted the special powers of instant manifestation? How would that go? What would happen to experience? Or would you only grant such power to yourself? Think that through, how would that play out? Perhaps you could imagine such a classroom is full of your own kids. Which one do you favor with such special powers? Does this enhance or diminish experience? How does this feel? Much, all, is the way it is, because of your true nature. As above, so below. Imagine you do instantly manifest the 100% score, with no experience of studying whatsoever. Instant gratification. Then imagine what you’d instantly manifest next, and next, and next. In about five minutes you’d want experience to be precisely, perfectly, exactly, how it was before. Be most careful with the conceptual pluralizing of realities. Trust in the true nature, in feeling, intuition. Sometimes those kids tell some real whoppers. Enjoy, appreciate, relish in experience. Connect with the unconditional true nature in the bigger life’s dream picture, and make a dreamboard, in this togetherness.

@Cepzeu

You’re not alone. ??

@Flowerfaeiry

Thought, words, and all communication is bullshit in the sense it is an appearance. This is not exactly the same as intention, such as with deception, yet most bullshit and deception is the unintentional product of self deception...which basically circles back to intention, and in large part, suffering.

It does sound like a weird joke and that there isn’t enlightenment, and it’s just, this. It is this, in plain sight, nothing hidden, but... realization of this will rock your reality and turn you inside out and outside in, so no, you have not found or realized enlightenment. Enlightenment is absolutely nothing, and yet ‘it’ is not the thought, belief, concept, idea, or imagining of enlightenment. I’d suggest enlightenment lies prior to and not beyond the mind, and inspecting “regular reality” for what is actual is the way, rather than looking. It could be said to be a solid place on the path though, the realization enlightenment is not a thought, idea, belief or something you imagine. This might bring about a new perspective in regard to alignment, self & reality understanding, practices, trips, etc.

One interpretation anyways,
