How is focusing on what you don’t want working out for you? How is desiring the opposite of your experience working out for you?

@Shaun Good to know, thanks.

Awesome.

It’s practically impossible not to overthink the most simple & obvious non explanation. Unthinkably simple and infinitely hysterical.

When you let thoughts go clearer thoughts arise. That can go on all the way from overthinking to channeling. When you let the insights go deeper ones arise, and that can go all the way to awakening. Eventually you’re emptied, and that can be enlightening. I think it’s fair to say our Being, our Love, is more readily shareable. You might try a reiki class. It’s amazing how spending time putting yourself aside for someone else’s healing can reveal a whole new depth of the possibilities of self. It’s quite possible your energy excess is actually a natural gift in the spiritual sector, for healing...but intellect is trying to make sense of it, intellectually. It would makes sense of why sharing conceptually leaves you unsatisfied emotionally.

@seeking_brilliance Weird, not sure why. Can you edit the first post (op)? Maybe copy & paste the second into the first, then hide the second one.

@Aakash Yes, great distinctions. Love to see a ‘psychoanalysis report’. It’d be great for some testimony from direct experience to get some exposure here. It’s a natural transition too, where it seems you’re at in life. A shift if you will, form parental influence to independence, on a lot of levels. That growth can be noticed & appreciated, and enjoyed. Decades from now, in hindsight, you’ll be glad if you enjoyed each day to your best ability, regardless of what that is any given day.

@Aakash Eventually aspects of you would be revealed as falsity, purged & vanish, having gone deeper into yourself. Currently your focus is on fears, and bees & wasps, while you’re actually getting stung by overthinking, attachment & identification, suppression, and some denial... and not practicing, expanding on your well being & health, doing consciousness work, purification, etc. I believe your sense of tension is the relativity of your ability to be doing exactly what you want to be doing, but aren’t because of emotional avoidance, which fuels overthinking, which makes focusing difficult when it could otherwise be effortless. If you were doing what you truly wanted, life would purify you along the way, and you’d feel quite aligned. “Purification” would be recontextualized, relative to how you think of it now. IF you are not discovery and or doing what you really want to, get he best assistance you can find. I believe what you really desire to be doing, is trying all kinds of things, without knowing what they are right now. Without knowing ahead of time what will help, trying things. In a way, that is what ultimately helps. It’d be extremely rare that one single method would be enough, wether that’s general health or enlightenment. In any case, utilize every resource available. As soon as you start the smallest step, you’ll feel relief.

@Aakash In practice.

Thinking is more relative thinking, purification at the root is consciousness. More is cleared, and there’s more clarity. Love/Truth reinterprets, and there is more inspiration. Then you begin to know yourself as the concepts, not by the concepts. Go to the gym if you want to. Either way, if you know who you are girls are no problem.

@Shaun How do you want to feel?

Are you aware of the thought, “solipsism”?

@Pouya Real indeed. ♥️??

@Pouya Try to describe the sensation / emotion, “scary”...without resistant thoughts, without judgement, without conditions on the Love that you are, without ignore-ance of the Truth that you are. Be the pupil which is looking, not those which are seen.

@Shaun Are you aware of those thoughts about nothingness & space? Are you the awareness of thoughts?

This is a reference to Shaun’s thoughts. Not any actuality of the content referred to.

What is the difference between your thought about nothingness and space and the actuality of nothingness and space?

Does an apple have infinite properties?

@SoonHei So the apple tastes better. @Shaun At what exact point did the apple become the jobby?

@SoonHei When you eat the apple, at what exact point is it no longer an apple?

@ColdFacts Same for you ??

If you ‘might’ eat a hamburger and then compare having eaten it to the ‘default state’ the distinction wouldn’t shake out. You’d have to actually eat it, if you will, to compare the “chose identity state”, to the “default state”. (The default state is the ‘identity’ state, so it is what’s to be inspected.) You can’t ‘might have eaten it’, you have to taste it, feel it in you. Any thought about the self is also itself the self, so a thought can not be the actual ‘identity’ because the thought inherently implicates a separation by distinction. If there is an implied separation, it can’t be true of the self, because the self is what is aware of the thought about the separation (about the self). If one chooses a God identity, or a human identity...they actually chose a thought, not an identity. The actual ‘identity’ is behind the choice to begin with. You would have to ‘get down to’ the actual you, so to speak. You have to see what is actual, for your self. They’d still be in that ‘default state’. The reference to the distinction would actually be to a thought about it, not it. More importantly though, the turn from ‘installed to them’, to ‘I’m what identified with it’, is a good turn. I have a hunch your cold factual world will not go down easy. ?? The self image doesn’t actually die, so no worries. You become aware how you create it perpetually, and starting letting go. It is a transition to less baggage, carrying less weight. It is good.

@Inliytened1 Absolutely! I believe we have securely reached infinite humor here. This could go on infinity. ♥️

@ColdFacts How is identity something you could choose? You’d be you...choosing. What is identity?
