@lmfao Every omelette is made of broken eggs. Don't beat up on yourself.

@MisterNoodle This lands about as welcomed as one is comfortable being alone, and takes years to even begin to be understood. If I were you, I would continue looking into it. And say hi to your brother for me!

@Elysian yes! ? ? ?

@lmfao Mindfulness of the inner game is helpful, thinking directly in what is wanted terms vs not thinking of what is not wanted. and you got this bro.

Would would thank or be thanked? What “objects”? What is a “construct”? What’s an “observer”? Name 3. Now Is that a thought/belief, or your own direct experience? What do you even mean, “reality”? Where does “reality” start? Where does “reality” end? Know this “thing” you’re talking about.

OH YES THERE IS.

@Annoynymous Fear arises through the ignorance of what you are; notice thinking & talking about fear at the no self stage can become obsessive - but go all the way, know Self, and fear is revealed to be falsity that was always rooted in thinking ( supported with the illusion of “self”), like other facets of suffering. This reference lists some specific fear-defenses with simple explanations, so you can know what’s happening, slow it down, and see through them. Psychedelics are great for blasting you through the id as well, if you’re up for that. ❤️❤️❤️ https://www.simplypsychology.org/defense-mechanisms.html I suggest it’s also helpful to label fear as “unconscious”, and ‘be conscious of it’ instead, when it “hits”.

@Andreas If you practice honing in on that you’ll start noticing what they’re thinking too. Don’t mess with this unless you’re in a really good carefree mood though. Try it with a friend. First, have them stand behind you, around 15 feet, and have them make a sound with their voice. You notice the sound is not taking place in your ear, but that you are aware of the sound exactly where the sound is. Have them move around and then make a sound again a few times. Then start with them behind you looking at you and thinking a great loving thought about you, and then wait a few minutes, and then the opposite thoughts about you. When you notice that, you “tuned to their frequency” more each time. If you have any negative experiences with this, know you can basically forget about it, and it will stop all on it’s own.

Active compassion.

Did it have horns? And where do you as the observer end, and objects being observed begin? How do you know you’re aware of this?

@Nadosa Take the peace in ‘I don’t know’. Let go of the pressure you’re putting on yourself. Relax. You just forgot who you are again. It’s fine.

Do you do any creative activities?

@thehero How ya doin man?

@Nexeternity Beautiful. (You and the thread.)

@MM1988 Nice contribution, thank you for taking the time!

@Serotoninluv lol. Sweet!

@Solace You too!!!!! Thanks. ❤️

@Serotoninluv lol. Tell em bout kundalini & tantra. ?

@Enizeo Hey, sorry, I missed your post somehow. Yes, I’ve tried different heights. I usually use this one for an hour or more sit... https://www.google.com/search?q=meditation+cushion&client=safari&hl=en-us&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiIst_C7IbfAhUNP60KHejxCDYQ_AUoAnoECBoQAg&biw=1366&bih=922#imgrc=o7sdyjAZ2TVWXM And a pretty generic round cushion for shorter sits.

@gilded_honour Not really. It’s a culmination from over the years, things I’ve tried.

@Equanimitize Everyone is already the one, psychopaths too. No? I imagine those 5% gathered in a 5meo lab, and @Leo Gura finding out!! I could not convince him/her. But the “lion” could see there’s no lion & cubs, just God. So far, yes 100% ??. ....But maybe..... I can attest that 8g’s of shroom tea will “rewire” a brain, and that’s just some idiot in his backyard. ?

That a human is, or a computer could be - conscious - is illusory. In actuality there is only consciousness, appearing to be some thing which is conscious; not things or objects which could be conscious, or produce ‘conscious’. “Conscious” is not a result of finite. For a computer to actually be conscious there would need to be an objective reality, no? I might be wrong, but it makes me wonder, @winterknight, would you say awareness & consciousness are the same / synonymous?

@Akuma Welcome back! How mind blowing is non duality? lol! Keep on this adventure, it only gets better.

Could you elaborate on that some more?
