@Revolutionary Think Feelin the passion my man. ❤️

@Faceless Truly, God works in mysterious ways. ??

@Mikael89 It’s worth it man. Learning this ‘second language’ is part of the discovery of unlearning the inner-language of conditioning, of anger, of fear. It’s sooo deep in there, cause the “I” “self” is soooo deep in there. Sooooo worthwhile. Absolutely a joy to witness. This is a great thread. ????????

@Salvijus I don’t know if I’d call it ‘tension’. If I can feel it, i can relax it more deeply, is kinda where I’m coming from. I can’t seem to sleep on my back, I’d like to. Any specific actionable you did that worked for this? Thanks!

@Salvijus Ya. I do wave relaxation head to toe, relaxing eye sockets, cheek muscles, etc. What do you do?

@XYZ Just another thought, maybe a pack or set, of those little aroma therapy bottles with a stress ball? Neat Christmas item imo. Also, maybe words imporinted on the stress balls. Opposite of stress words, like ease, harmony, etc etc.

@RabbitHole I took it as laws of physics.

“Who Chit” ??? @who chit ??

@Jack River No.

@Robert ?? Robert makes a hell of a case here, imo. If you have another perspective / understanding & intention relative to the meaning of life, just ask yourself, why? As in, whatever you think the point of life is - scrutinize that by asking, why do I want that? Why do I thin that? Try to prove that you are not the literal center of the universe. You can’t. The universe is your illusion. Seems crazy af, I know. If it’s unbelievable, go ahead and spend a decade or two reading what the guru’s have to say. But before you do that, ask yourself why you’re going to do it.

@Cortex Realize you are that infinite freedom, creating the laws, to allow for this experience - in appearance. There is nothing, in actuality, to fix.

@Jack River Creation? I mean, after all, you are the one.

@The Mystical Man You’re amazing dude. 19? Gtfo. @Leo Gura ??

@Rilles Thank you for the inspiration. ?

@Rilles The practices are not adding anything, or ‘increasing consciousness’, but relinquishing filters of cognitive dissonance. Practices are periods of time spent without all of the sensory content in typical day to day living, and with attention to the “contentless / emptiness”. If general misunderstandings of duality / nonduality have not been rooted out, then after ‘practice time’, upon returning to ‘the rest of the day’, misunderstanding is retriggered via mental reactions, the “separate I” is mentally reconstructed, and the giddy is gone. Stomach breathing can bridge the practice time into the rest of the day because attention is kept to the breath, allowing thought to come and freely go, revealing thought’s ‘just things’ (Maya / Illusionary) nature. Mental processes resolved, new ‘frequencies of observation’ (access of self) are revealed as being incomprehensible, which is why thinking was preventing access. An example would be the all too easily overlooked simplicity in the power of your attention, prior to focus, prior to thought, prior to verbalization, prior to reaction, etc. Just, attention. Easier to see with love first, and then literal creation of your own reality. So consider there is not a ‘withdrawal’ at play, but the opposite, the ‘adding of things’ (thoughts).

@Christer Awareness uninterupted by thought, electricity without resistors, wind without the forest, inevitable with 24/7 stomach breath focus, it becomes the default as it already was.

Trump’s obviously a wild orange spiral. Wait, sorry, that was just his hair, nvmd.

Thank you everyone for the input, very helpful and much appreciated! ❤️

@Mikael89 Challenge accepted! Thank you. ❤️?

@XYZ The perfect stressball is a fantastic idea. I could totally see it taking off like the fidget spinners. Email people from websites who are already selling a handful of items online, ask for help & contact info. Here’s some info on producing a product from conception to sales. https://www.marthastewart.com/264329/how-to-get-your-product-made-finding-and

@Courtney When there is sadness or anger, even frustration - attempt to justify it. It’ll sound like “well yeah, I’m mad because I.....” That will always reveal it’s just thoughts, relative to a thought about “I”. Thoughts are things, like clouds and birds. All there is, is awareness / consciousness / Love / God / You. (All the same) That is the I. We all have the same I. That awareness hasn’t “always been with you”, it is you. That other you is a thought. It’s good to laugh about how serious your prior life was. It’s good to see there’s no such thing as a grown up. Remember that? That kid? Betcha do.

@Courtney Right on. You are the awareness, and it has never changed, has it? Aware of thoughts...do the thoughts hold any power? Can you justify believing the thoughts anymore?

@Courtney Skip the ‘disorder’, that gets too much focus already, instead describe this “I” being referred to which has it. Can you share a detail or two about this “I”?

@Arkandeus Took my breath away. Beautiful. ??

@danton Possibly the greatest post I’ve seen. ??
