@Max_V The sensations are direct connection with Truth/Love. If you don’t listen to Truth, it’ll turn your stomach. If you don’t listen to Love, it’ll burn your heart. Direct experience is nothing like living through thought stories. It is the clarity you seek. The inward path, into sensations, as such, will ‘set you free’. Begin being attentive to this mixing of sensation and thought stories. Notice thought stories take you for a suffering ride, via ‘you’ in the story, others, past and future. Learn to be present here now, but cutting all the false baggage.

See where you’re cutting your circulation off. If it’s your ankles put the bottoms of your feet together instead of crossing them. Make sure you’re sitting on a cushion made for meditation.

@Dylan Page You and the world are literally made of Love. The best illusion is the illusion there is no illusion. God’s Love is so perfect, you don’t think you’re God, and are convinced this is somehow a separate physical reality. You created the greatest possible adventure by forgetting who you really are. Find out for yourself. Nothing is more worthwhile.

Because the sensations tell you the thoughts are false, that there is a higher truth at play, but you aren’t listening to them. You’re mixing the sensations (heart burning, tight stomach) with the thought stories, and experiencing dread & guilt. This is rendering you helpless. The liberation in scrutinizing your direct experience is more freeing and radical than you have yet inspected. In misunderstanding thought & sensation, you’re avoiding the sensations, by mislabeling them as dread and guilt. They’re actually guiding you by Truth, always. Don’t power through them, stop and listen.

@DrewNows Just mod stuff. Lol

@Max_V Do you see how the sensation is not guilt or dread, but burning heart & tight stomach?

@Max_V Are you noticing you originally described the sensation as dread and guilt.... But when tasked to isolate it in direct experience, the sensation is burning heart, and contracted stomach.

@Max_V Where, specifically, in the body, is the sensation, and in a word or two, what does it feel like?

@Max_V First let’s address the inner world clarity, then the ‘big stuff’. What is the sensation you are experiencing, in a word or two?

@Preetom So sweet and simple, really nice. Your signature line is insanely true! Lol

@Surfingthewave For every one. ??♥️

@Max_V In a nutshell, your itching for higher truth which makes sense of these things that do not make sense logically. You want something satisfying now, about the girl, but you don’t want to investigate direct experience. There are things you can do right now, meditate and calm your mind, exercise, pray for her and her family, donate to a related cause, talk to someone, or just do something fun and or relaxing to change your state. You are experiencing sensations mixed with thought stories, and feeling the feelings of the you in the thought story, not actual you, awareness of the sensations and thoughts. Short of getting hit by lightning, or a major psychedelic breakthrough, this mixing of thought story and sensation will repeat over and over again, until it is examined and recognized as it is in direct experience. It does not sound like you’re in the mood for any investigating to realize the clarity. If I am wrong about that, let me know and we can break it down.

@Marinus Yes, have you made a dream board? All birds, one stone.

@DrewNows Who determines skinny & fat? Is it “in the Bible” so to speak? Written in hieroglyphics in a pyramid? Who determines this has to do with beautiful, not beautiful, attractive, unattractive? Of course, you do. The relevant question is, are you aware that you are creating your own reality, or reacting in conditioned thought patterns? To what extent are you aware that you do? Is your ceiling “societies norms”? (Cause that’s actually up to you as well) There’s no escaping you are the dreamer, even in a dream. Especially in a dream. Identified as body mind though, the world is quite screwed, everything appears ‘relative’ to “you”, right under your nose. In awareness of defensiveness (offensiveness) & protectiveness (needing to be understood & other to see things “my” way, or there is something “wrong” with them). Ain’t no body tryin to experience the death of their own identity though. Well, one maybe. There is no infinite regress, because there is absolute. (♥️)

@DrewNows Because beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and there are not-two.

@Dino D ?❤️

@Neet Spend a few days away, alone, and relax & let go. After a couple days, I think you’ll know.

@Emerald I understand where you’re coming from, and it is entirely up to you. We don’t see it the same way and I can appreciate that. I was a bit more coming from a place of the discussion being relative to ‘repelling and being the self’.

@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. ☺️
