@Devi Shanti We’ll see. ?

@Leo Kaminski Thanks, that gives a better idea of where you’re at. Meditation & yoga first thing every morning, and stomach breathing awareness & self inquiry all day everyday. Then your trips will rocket you into another stratosphere, in a permanent fashion, saving you years if not decades. You’ll see the difference between knowing (knowledge) of dogma, beliefs, information, etc (the delusions / bullshit that are the potential for bias & traps) in comparison with knowing Being. Similar to how you would know a friend, compared to knowing information. This is done through actually doing the consciousness work. The worst thing you could do is be the one who has mastered material conceptually, but does not do the daily work. Suffering is the teaching, nondual awareness is the peace. Make sure, when Leo’s talkin, you’re lookin at the moon, very honestly, and you’ll be great man. The hard, almost impossible task is, to do what’s been suggested here - without exceptional & intense suffering to motivate you.

@KeenokF Why do you mention your past?

@Jack Walter Leon How does it make a difference, if people understand you or not? Meditate every morning, and again in the afternoon. Of course the mind is throwing you off track. You’re not well practiced. Your enlightenment experience was without the proper foundation. Enjoy knowing the call for the practices. Most people would really want that. You are very lucky. Self inquire, all day, everyday. Keep asking who is this I, and let go of every thought which arises, by acknowledging, that is a thought. Feel for the “me”, over and over. After some number of days, you’ll see that you get to that wonderful “me” in less and less time / inquiry. Later, when you have a foundation in place, psychedelics might seem appropriate. You’ll know. In a nutshell, you posted “Hey, will someone please tell me to do the work?” Hey Jack. Do the work.

@Leo Kaminski What’s your daily meditation / yoga like? How’s self inquiry going? What books have you read? What fears have you faced? How have you been more attentive to what you have been inattentive of? How have you used what you’ve learned to deepen your relationships, and be more efficient & effective in pursing your desires? What metaphysical truths have you experienced in your trips?

Yes, ultimately, but there are many counter intuitive paradoxes of self realization along the way. It sure is. Yes. Nobody cares... but there is care, no? You can also stop there too, if you want.

@Anton Rogachevski Yes! ?

@KeenokF Start appreciating what you have, your abilities, the connections & opportunities you already have with people, etc. If you keep thinking about & looking at lack & shortage, you’ll continue experiencing more of it. If you take responsibility for your perspective, being thankful for what you have and what you’re capable of, you’ll experience more of that. It looks like things, but it is consciousness. Watch this a few times, a hundred if that’s what it takes for it to click. Then listen to this stuff every morning (preferable while exercising / elevated heart rate), first thing, before your old thought patterns have a chance. Then use meditation to calm your mind (conditioned perspectives & patterns), and vision what you want in your life.

@kev014 Listen to Abraham Hicks. Or, of course, don’t. Money, like you and all things, is consciousness. It’s your vibration about topics which “matters”.

@inFlow ? @Aaron p I have some exercises from my book I’ve been doing with people to help with self realization. If you’re interested in trying something, pm me.

@Moment Weird isn’t it? It seems the deeper one gets into science, the more they can’t see the truth. Kinda baffling. (Not John, he totally gets it).

@ivankiss Says you, because, nonduality.

@ivankiss Cool. Bullshit, but, love ya, and, cool.

@Cameron Be careful you’re not fooling yourself. Tense your entire body, then let go, relax it all, to see if there is a difference. Otherwise, from cycling a hundred miles a day for days, and running five to ten miles every morning, beyond the second wind, there is a point where we are continuing, with all muscles relaxed. This slow accumulative change, especially combined with the organic development of breath work, can fly right under the radar, leaving you wondering about body tension. Ya very well might not have any. Tread so carefully though.

@MTR “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” - Matthew 7:13-14

@MTR What’s your understanding of that quote? What is the message? What is the work, in “works on what he has seen”?

Try Reiki to experience a peak of beyond conceptual. Work your way up to an hour a day of quality meditation / yoga. Then of course, disciplined practices, trips, etc. So far, you’ve only talked about it, so it seems entirely conceptual to you. Stop listening to people who have not done / don’t do the work, yet tell you all about it - they’re so deeply fooled by ego their words resonate with your ego, keeping it all conceptual. They’re feeding their ego, but the nature of that is, they don’t know it. This work is much trickier than you have yet understood. Yes you can. You can be completely aware every master is you! That is literally what they are telling you, but again....the work. If the path is conceptual, you are not yet on the path.

@isabel Gotcha, thanks. The mind is holding the truth back with a paper thin veneer, slipping an identity in the back door via “me”. Look for that me in “I don’t experience a oneness with the whole universe just with things around me that I can see”. Point to the me that other objects are around. Look for the me everything is around, and the oneness will become more present. Then, who is the I in, “that I can see” ? “also I've watched a ton of videos now so I wonder how do I know that's a real experience or if I just think that now because a video said it would happen” That strikes me as pretty flexible & open minded. Maybe it’s not one or the other.

Personality seems comfortable, not lacking in energy, and genuine, even warm, imo. Content wise, consider reaction vs creation to bring more of what’s in your personality into your channel.

@Leo Gura Man what a tough run lately. Hope you’re back to 100% soon.

It’s doubly painful, as you’ve each placed your happiness in the future, and contingent on the other. It’s a painful house of cards, with no foundation. Emotional self reliance is needed, not more empathy. Look into making yourself happy, so you have something worth sharing with the other. When each of you simply begins some form of personal development, emotionally speaking, like therapy, couseling, reading a book about self esteem, personal accountability for your emotions, etc, you’ll almost instantly get along better. The perspective & therefore the entire dynamic of the relationship will begin to change from getting love, to giving love. This is the path of self honesty. Good luck.

@isabel Are you asking how you can know there is more which could be seen beyond what you’re eyes are currently seeing? And of what is seen, how can you know if you are seeing it directly, or if you are imagining it...?

@Lynnel Nice. Thanks for sharing!

@bazera Let the ‘glimpse’ go for now. Concentrate on getting to a place where you can do meditation, yoga, travel, trip, etc. You’re trying to skip the foundation. The glimpse won’t fix anything.

@Preetom How come?
