I wish you the best, and of course get all the help you can. Why is asking you if you can see a perspective in addition to the one you are expressing narscasistic? Why do you see it as opposition? Are you considering that this is not spiritual kundalini related at all, but that the past you referred to, your “karma” and “it” all “flooding back” is having an influence? In addition to energy / body / spiritual perspective, have you tried a good therapist, for at least a few months or so? What exactly is the karma you say is hitting you in the face? What is “it”, specifically, which all flooded back? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ninOz5ValUM What are your thoughts on this...? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wpqVezKradg

What does “being out of alignment” mean for you? Can you name 2 or 3 things / habits / perspectives / life situations, etc which are what you are referring to? What is fragmentation to you? I’ve heard of it but what does it mean to you, how is there fragmentation in your life now? Try becoming aware of what’s going on, without any perspective, without beating up on yourself. What would the ideal “quantum leap” look like, in terms of body, in terms of mind, changes in actions, changes to your life, your directions, etc?

@JayG84 Don’t stop half way.

@Serotoninluv I’ll read it, but I hope it’s really convincing.

@Serotoninluv Wait...what’s the first one?

@Serotoninluv Thank nonduality for popcorn though.

When only Mu will do.

Same thing going on, both convo’s here. @corndjorn

Thanks. I have to say though, that is a weird definition. If you inquire into the meaning behind it, you’ll arrive back at nonduality.

Research & try different meditation techniques, and try therapy. Correct meditation practice reveals spaciousness around thoughts, and you / awareness will be less attached / convinced / reactional to the perspectives you’ve been repeating. When you see the ‘problem’ differently, proceeding is easier and easier. Carried out full circle, the entirety of perspective will change. Make one small change each day with the habits. It’s enough to be aware of what you’re doing as you’re doing it. Don’t beat up on yourself. Change things just for the experience of changing things.

That’s it.

@outlandish Nice post. Wife, kids, Self discovery, living & disappearing.

Nice!

@clouffy what are known things one can do to realign?

@Matt8800 ? ? ?

@corndjorn Can you define the foundation of the op....’spiritual progress’?

@Rilles ?

@Just the mage I’m honestly not saying that what you are experiencing and the perspectives are not true or real. In addition to these perspectives, can you realize everything you’re talking about is bullshit? Every last bit? Again, I am asking if you can see both perspectives. A lessor known but highly effective practice is to close your eyes and have someone wind up, and give you a solid slap accross the face. Have you tried this?

@Gog Hi Gog. Spamming via name and meaningless posts is not what the forum is for. Thanks for your understanding.

@clouffy What is depression?

@bmcnicho Why would one do that do you suppose?

@bmcnicho Do you mean silly like someone crusading against self improvement on a self improvement forum kind of silly? The complete spiritual bypassing of life level of silly?

@pluto8 Yep. You are Truman Burbank. Just haven’t realized it yet.

That’s beautiful!

@Ross Labby The underlying problem is believing the illusion of time. Write out your days, in blocks of time, how you’ve spent it. The uneasy feeling will be faced, you will see there is ample time to pursue music primarily, and other arts as secondary, if you wish. One creative outlet behooves all others. Creating supersedes time, purpose, etc. The resistance to athletics is the deeper knowing the body being more fit would result in the energy to be creative in all your desired endeavors. The ego says “we” don’t need that fitness, we can just spin our wheels.
