@RendHeaven ? Love you!

@bejapuskas That’s not thinkable, or definable, but it’s also unmistakeable, and the subtleties of othering stand out when there aren’t others. @Emerald We are experiencing the world very differently, and I always love that. ??In my estimate, it’s entirely eye of the beholder, if you say ‘unattractive people exist’, ‘ugly woman’ exist, scale them, and that is reality, ...ok. I’m not saying you’re wrong or in denial. It might be a really different perception but to me that would be the ‘uncomfortable reality’. I don’t find ‘everyone is beautiful’ to be a line at all. I find reality to be very beautiful, and the eye of the beholder to be a magical mysterious beauty in & of itself.

Awesome insights! Great foundation work! To your questions... write about the experience of ‘losing the sensation of reality and going crazy’,...’going mad’. Like you were writing a letter to someone to really express to them what it’s like. Lot of clarity will come. Articulate what you really mean as much as you can by ‘sensation of reality’. Might uncover some things about safety, uncertainty, dependence, etc. “Making it lighter for the ego”...Seeing personal responsibility as acutely & literal as possible, in the sense, you are doing whatever you’re doing right now because a long series of your own choices lead to it / created it. If people or events etc ‘come up’ as triggers in that perspective, having influenced your life, that’s where the “ego” work to be done is. (Which might just be staying present, now, and letting it go simply by being aware you’ve been hanging on to it) “Better integrating trips”...Your trips are at the uber-high-vibration & view level, so to speak. “Integration” being a term for the difference, or matching of, the “sober” homeostasis state.... what’s needed is realizing more deeply these states (the trip & the homeostasis) are happening within you, same exact ‘space’, you never moved nor changed. You were aware of that, you are aware of this. That & this are the same damn magical unexplainable being, you. Looks like there are different things & places, because it’s that magical. More practically...diet & fitness, tendency to carry worry, a wide breadth of teachers, and quantum mechanics can be a bridge / opener for mind from “sober physical reality” full circle to Magic. Also, don’t hold to tight to the ‘my mind’. There’s an experiment (YouTube) that shows decisions are made around 6 seconds before one is aware of it, might want to check it out. That and QM’s can help the difficult crossover to the deeper ‘thing going on here’, rather than the ‘my’ mind - ‘universe’s’ Mind, me - God paradigms (even noting you have realized God connection??). Can’t really lose something that isn’t, essentially. Scrutinize the sensations and the thoughts separately, without labeling them together “going mad”, etc. It’s a sneaky “write off”. Don’t think of it as losing your mind, relax, think of it as gaining, expanding, discovering, pioneering, the most exciting of adventures. You truly are being brave af already. What you’re battling are the remaining untruths in your own mind. The ones about yourself & God are the toughest. They go unnoticed due to years of repetition a bit behind the scenes (identity). That behind the scenes is where you’re aiming to go though, so it has to be cleaned up, emptied. Scrutinize the thoughts and sensations separately. Thanks again for the great share!

@bejapuskas Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Who one would date is a bit different than a broad stroke of physically unattractive. It’s up to each one, and I wouldn’t want a woman to get the impression it is otherwise. The world does this plenty already, yet insane attraction paradigm busting “mismatches” happen everyday. This has to do more with what is prior to the surface of physicality. Things as simple as being considerate, conscientious, are deception at play here, imo (op). A misunderstanding of ‘being the self’.

@RendHeaven Well ya but you already covered that so well, and the op does say ‘different spectacles’, and with this... ...I was aiming prior to the bifocals, for the perception prior even to the relationship lens altogether, the ‘relationship’ with the self. There seemed to be so much waffling for so long, I didn’t think saying of course leave was the ‘different spectacle’ that the op felt would help. I hear ya though, and thank you. I just don’t experience relationships as duality and self / love as nonduality. I see everything permeated with love, and it makes sense. I do believe one will choose suffering with someone over having no one, only from a misunderstood idea of self. I also believe the heart is leading the show wether the mind knows it or not, and that it’s better to know it. We’ll see I guess, maybe they’ll think it’s neet. Maybe not.

@Marinus Love your channel btw, subscribed. Love to see a video from ya called “Why try psychedelics, from a logical man’s perspective”. Keep up the great work! ??

@Natasha You’re quite easy to love. ☺️

@Aeris What if parasites are neither alive nor dead, and happy in either case?

@Natasha I took the post as about love itself, what he’s learned, what he’s seeking in love, not finding it because of the seeking of it...”I wonder if it’s possible for a human being not to fall in love”, etc. Love was found as already there, beneath the barriers I added. It was never found in a relationship - that was another barrier I added, rather, it is infused, given, offered without a string of ‘relationship’, or a web of ‘life partner’. If the post was “How do I find a life partner”, I’d interpret that altogether different. I am crazy though, so, you know. My 2 cents, is essentially, he is everything he is seeking - while being ‘logical’, etc. When that shines, for realz, consciousness is the perfect partner, right out of the woodwork, explainable only after the fact - there she is.

@Natasha There is no relationship love, this is love contextualized. That love, is Being , our shared Being. Without recognition of this, it is fought for, fought over, fought against...arguments, resentments, manipulation, etc, etc. In recognition of Love, our shared Being - none of this is possible, there is no reason to acuse & defend, nothing to argue about, there is only Love and loving. No?

@Inliytened1 There’s no such thing as infinity.

Have a direct look into that “something”, see what it actually is. Don’t allow yourself to write it off with a word - “something”.

@Natasha It’s that sneaky.

@How to be wise Thanks for sharing. Thought maybe there was a mystical experience there, conceptualized, like ‘mine’. Appreciate it man. ?? @Inliytened1 Uh oh. I definitely did not intend to start a nondual war. Just enjoy those mystical tales. ??

@Gili Trawangan Not one unattractive woman exists on all of earth. Go deeper, see beyond such things. See how shockingly beautiful every single one is. Truly. Suffering is via identification, there is no shortage of beauty.

Reality is Magic, and it is you. “It” is responsive, “it” has sensations, and “it” attaches thought stories to the sensations, to make sense of them - but in actuality this is a misunderstanding, that sensation is not enough and could be “made sense of”. The “making sense of”, if you inspect you will see - it’s a protective, defensive mechanism, every time. The “trick to it” is, no longer listen to the thought stories, notice when you are believing you are actual the you in a thought story, and notice you are aware of the thought story - not in it. The art of this magic, is in letting every single thought go, and experiencing the direct message of the sensations. This is the sensational life. All other living is the same old spectacle. Side note, is this Ben Franklin? Who says ‘spectacles’? I love it! Godspeed.

Blinded to the fact that I am a logical man is a deep belief, and the love you speak of is the actuality of your identity. That “blindedness” is a gross (apparent) limitation of Love by the thinking & believing it literally “coming from” a thing / person. Love is what is, without any such beliefs. Love is giving your true self to the world. Love is not received, obtained, or created.

@Wekz Good for you Wekz. ??

‘My mind’ is an implication of a thing, not a thing.

@Ella Powerful stuff, great share. Thank you ??.

@How to be wise What was the experience like? Just curious because you, (and now apparently Byron) are the only ones I’ve heard realize this. That’s all, just curious. ?? Understandable if it’s too personal to share.

Thank’s everyone for all the sharing here. Loving so many new tunes. ??

The break of the created tension, around 6:40, psshhhhh, forget about it. Nirvana. That’s some Alan Watts action right there “Dave”. The last stop indeed.

@The Blind Sage I don’t actually, but I really appreciate that & likewise, thank you. ??

@Gili Trawangan Yep. Nice report! It’s not an understanding, the understanding is yourself, appearing as “understanding”. There is no analogy...but consider looking at yourself in the mirror and obviously knowing that’s you...then looking at the mirror itself, equally knowing the mirror is you. There isn’t a you which is everything, except for a mirror, just as there isn’t a you which is everything, except for understanding.
