@AminB501 If there are “deceivers”, then you’re kind of screwed, because you may or may not come across one again, and you’re at the whim of chance. If you separate the behaviors & actions, from who they really are, it is not possible to come across “a deceiver” again. You would see their self deception a mile away. This points to self discovery, honestly, conscience, and feeling, on one’s own behalf, rather than attempting to resolve thoughts about other people with more thinking about other people. That, is inherently self deceptive. If the event with the band feels terrible to you, inspect your own direct experience of what’s going on. Let go of trying to resolve “the deceivers of the world”, and notice it is not what they did or said which results in the terrible feeling, it is the thought about yourself, which is not true, and therefore does not resound in your being, does not resonate. Don’t label the feeling, discard the belief. You might see their experience as the same. That they are holding beliefs about themselves which are not true, and it does not feel good. They behave from ‘fear’, which is resolved by more deeply knowing themselves, which means inspecting feeling, and honesty, ‘sorting out one’s conscience’. @kieranperez ‘s post here is incredibly brave & insightful in this regard. https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/47043-adhd-is-a-serious-issue-on-the-self-actualization-path/#comment-595830

@Patrick Lynam Just as you said. Understanding is via direct experience. The self, itself. Yourself. The question arose from you, the answer does too. When someone tells you spirituality is something other than what is found within yourself, a resistance is felt, because you too, are creating, but not quite looking inward enough to realize this. Spirituality, in direct experience, turns out to be indeed, original. The word ‘spirituality’ can only point to this. The metadventure is the undertaking of finding out, that which the word points to.

Relative to over thinking and misunderstanding feeling & emotion, meditation is certainly beneficial. Sounds like it has / is serving you quite well. Congrats on working through that stuff. That’s awesome man. Outside of you at any given time, feeling it will serve you...90 mins a day is an hour too much imo. That hour could be spent on dreamboard, life purpose, & inspecting direct exp. - especially now that you brought your mental state back to equanimity. The point about it being a tool of the ego is wrong, which is why you’re thinking you’re running away from fear through meditation. Never credit an “ego” with anything. It’s a write off. Instead, inspect thought, perception & feeling. Breakdown the direct experience. What you learn & realize there, you keep for ‘life’. When you feel that way (“fear”), realize the thought or belief in that moment is not true. Feeling will appear to resolve, as in you’ll feel just fine. There was never anything ‘wrong’ with feeling to begin with. It was the discord of the thought or belief. Feeling has your back, so to speak. Never label it “fear”, never attribute it to an “ego”. That’s outright nonsense. ? The body responding in ‘fight or flight’ is perfect infinite intelligence in a fight or flight situation. Your brain’s not going to ‘think itself into oblivion’. “Brain” is a thought, and a thought can not think a thought. (That would be another thought). I would be inspecting your beautiful self, not “scratching it away”. Choose thoughts that are aligned with your dreamboard, with what you want, which feel good to you.

@Raptorsin7 I’ll give it some thought. Thanks!

There’s no self which could be “rewritten”, yet there is a self indeed, the O.G., The Writer Itself. (You) . Not a state that was reached. Who you really are. What you ‘were’ ’prior to’ the ’appearance’ & idea referred to as your birth. Really have to see past the linguistics of pronouns here.

@Waken I think I see where the notion may have arose. The inspection work & understanding was done the last couple of years prior to the awakening, and imo was much more the ‘catalyst’ than the meditation. The meditation just cleared and calmed the mind, and to a large extent the body, nervous system, etc.

@Javfly33 ??? Your metadventure is where it’s at anyways really, the journey of the “figuring it out”, the unfolding of the understanding. That’s the ‘juice’. You’re rockin your path man, and I appreciate the kind words. I’m just some weird mist blowin by.

@Anna1 Couldn’t help but to think of and appreciate ya. ♥️

Wonderful. ??

@actualizing25 More or less awake is a relative thought, of yours. By believing the thought, taking the content to be actual, rather than recognizing it is a thought about a “thing”, you continue to veil yourself from awakening. “Thing”, is just a thought. No one has ever perceived a “thing”. Perception, is perception. Pure magic. Infinite being. You! Inspect your direct experience.

@Waken Around twenty years, just about everyday at least once. Keep in mind, I hadn’t heard of “awakening”, let alone any of the plethora of insight and information @Leo Gura has shared with us. The awakening is what led to finding actualizing.org. God bless it.

@Javfly33 You sure they could stopping laughing enough to “evaluate others’ level of consciousness” ? Idk.

God gave me mushrooms. Nonsense came to a screeching halt. @Matteo Beautiful & elegant share, thank you!

There’s no truth in that. It’s a belief which is likely not serving you. You’re already, and quite literally always in direct experience! Inspect your direct experience, anytime you like. It’ll bring lasting presence and some amazing discoveries and feeling. Reality itself can be - will be, decontextualized. ♥️ “Leagues to go” is just a thought. Let it go, and a far better thought does arise. Embrace not knowing what ‘you’re doing’...and even that you’re doing. Know the question, write it down, then let it go completely, entirely. Literally actuality forget what it was. Go do whatever feels good, whatever you like. The answer will arise. The key is feeling great. “The body is the temple”, the temple is “the place of gathering”, and that’s not about social gathering. Think of the question like a cup full of water. Then it being dumped out. Then when you’re not lookin - it gets filled with answer, unmistakably, as it is felt in the body & mind. There is a profound joy in living when it is realized that we all literally experience one single thought at a time. We’re designed for 99.9% feeling, fun, loving, receiving love...and .01% thinkin. One is inherent in the design, it can be no other way. Yes indeed it is. The whole of you. ‘You’ have complete access to the infinite intelligence, and the infinite love, that you are, and that is this universe. No ‘playing small’! ? Godspeed.

I’d suggest writing it on your board, and that’s it. Then get yourself ready fo it, and notice when it comes. This guy has a YouTube channel packed with this topic, and his communication is short, efficient and precise imo. Godspeed with your creating. ♥️??

@mandyjw ???

♥️

@zeroISinfinity ☺️ Was about to type “Thanks, I love me-you” and it hit me.....mu. Love mu! ??

@AminB501 I would suggest what you’re looking for would be missed in the logic of it’s relation to their “intellectual capacity”, but found in honestly, conscience, and feeling. The relative point of focus in kind would not be your intellect, but your presence.

@Prevailer Infinite, or ‘parts’? What do you make of the notion that there are no ‘parts’ in feeling & perception, only in thought? The implications at play here are incredibly profound in relation to the nervous system and thoughts (creation). I’m talking about your body & brain being flooded with Goodness.

@electroBeam There’s always a better feeling thought arising behind every thought let go. Source is Good, and as such it can not be any other way.

@mandyjw ”Philboard” ? Aside... angels...angles....hmmm hmmm?

A question & answer from a recent session that touches on those topics a bit... You talked about chakras, is it important to know the chakras? And do you know how to better organize your time, I'm struggling a little bit with it. Thank you. It’s not critical or needed, to know the chakras, but if it is helpful in connecting more deeply with feeling within the body, and to allow emotional / contracted release from it...if it enhances the quality of your living and brings you closer to the source of you, then explore & learn about it. Imo, it is by far best to go to someone like a reiki practitioner to learn about the chakra’s. If you ask them while getting a reiki session, they’ll very happily explain it, reference charts on the wall, and share their understanding of what’s going on with your chakra’s. It can be very insightful. Time is illusory in that each person is thinking & believing it, and therefore it can’t really be organized. Time is a thought, and organization is a thought...so trying to “organize time” is just a bunch of thinking. Mapping it out in front you is helpful, if it is helpful, if it feels good. Writing on your board is most ideal. Getting it in front of you makes the difference. Seeing it from even the visual vantage point of three feet is a big difference, and is literally an infinite vantage point. Make a list of what you want in your life, now and also going forward, for your future. Dream BIG. Then re-list what you wrote, in terms of priority of what you most want, and in any ways which ‘click’’. You will begin to see, even the most ‘mundane’ task or ‘menial’ job - is actually a ‘part’ of the whole dream of your life, and as such it is known, seen, understood, and felt as whole, and as already the unfolding of precisely what you are wanting. The littlest task, known as the wholeness of whole vision, of creation, of Being, of you.

@Prevailer Infinite, as in, no second ‘thing’? No, ‘things’ at all, really?
