  1. Let’s share synchronicities in this Mega-thread
  2. Do you guys recognize how much clickbait is done nowadays?
  3. Bullies are great teachers. And you are theirs.
  4. @Shiva exactly! @Xin slow and steady wins the race, friend. After all, why the hurry?
  5. There are many reports of the akashic records. I‘ve never experienced it myself, but I think it’s almost certain they exist.
  6. @Jeff Zhang I have been living in China for over a year. Had good times there :).
  7. @Jeff Zhang maybe you can check out the laws in nearby countries or special status places like hong kong, macao or taiwan. If you have the money, go to a retreat. Maybe look for retreats in eastern europe, as they won’t be so expensive. I know that Octavio Rettig and his little toad will be there next year.
  8. Hi there, I‘ve been watching a lot of Teal Swan‘s videos lately and I‘m wondering about her take on enlightenment. She claims to be enlightened and yet still has an fully intact ego with fears, desires etc. In her opinion transcending the ego is kind of „selective identification“ while she promotes fully integrating the ego into consciousness. Shouldn’t that lead to ego death in the end? Now, she seems a reliable source, yet her teachings differ from many other perspectives. Is she just not taking it far enough?
  9. I claim that fully enlightened beings do not have a subconscious mind. Do you agree?
  10. Does it make sense to take revenge on people who have hurt you?
  11. Don‘t give up! Everything in your life is fixable. It will just take perseverance, effort and a willingness to suffer through it. I you want a power tool for trauma healing/personal growth, then start talking low doses (ca. 100ug) of LSD in regular intervals (p.e. 2 weeks). It will help you to work through your problems quicker, as it raises your consciousness. Once you grow to a certain level, simply being alive is joyful, whether you have a lot of money or not. Everything material will be bonus. Good luck!
  12. @Cineva There is nothing wrong with you from the higher consciousness perspective. Everything should be as it is right now. From the lower consciousness perspective, you definitely need to change yourself a lot. Your depression and low self-esteem are signals that you are not aligned with yourself. Try to reconnect more with your higher self and your emotions. I‘m going through a similar phase right now and I‘ve found contemplation and meditation/relaxation/observation really helpful. It all comes down to integrate fragments of your psyche, which is otherwise known as healing or shadow work. Which is the same as raising your consciousness. Chances are you are running away from yourself. It’s time to turn around and to face the tornado. If you need more help or advice feel free to PM me. Good luck!
  13. Hi there, I have a very intimate, delicate subject to share with you today. It turns out that I'm sexually attracted mainly to children/teens (mostly boys) in the 10-15 year old age range. I'm a male in my mid 20's and I've know about this for about a decade now, although I pushed it away until 2 to 3 years ago. The reason I write this post is, that I feel an urge to express myself somehow about this issue and because of it's taboo nature it is quite hard to disclose to people in real life, although I talk to my therapist about it. So feel free to leave me a comment, but whatever your opinion is, please stay respectful and open-minded. So, here I am, sitting in my bedroom writing about an aspect of me that I barely feel comfortable with. It all began when I was a teenager myself and the hormones began to make themselves noticable. At first, I found myself attracted to male classmates of mine and thought that I might be gay. Not exactly a pleasant thougth, but still ok. Considering the emotional abusive home I grew up in, and thus the quite weak psychological state I was in, every deviation from norm was not really welcomed. As a few years went by, I noticed that I and my peers grew older but my sexual attraction basically stayed the same. That was probably the phase when I intuited that there might be something wrong, but as so often, I pushed my consern in my subconscious and hoping that it would somehow work itself out with time. Oh man, how wrong I was. As it became more and more clear, that this sexual attraction towards boys would not go away, the harder I tried to convince myself of the opposite and forced myself, totally against my inner guidance system, into pursuing relationships with people that I was not attracted to. I was terrified of being regarded as strange by family, friends and peers for not indulging in common romantic relationships, let alone being though of as a pedophile/hebephile. This whole scenario became very stressful and has lead to massive anxienty and trauma, that I am still dealing with today. Now, I am in the phase of acutally coming to terms with my sexuality and actualizing it in a healthy way. A first step hereby is to finally start expressing my feelings to myself and others, when safe. Obviously, I am not the kind of person who would like to abuse children. I myself have been treated bad enough in childhood, although not in a sexual way, so I really don't want to cause any pain or suffering to a child. In addition, I'd rather have an adult partner, who can be a true partner for life, somebody I can talk to and who is socially acceptable as partner. The thing is, as mentioned above, I'm mainly attracted to prepubescent/pubescent body scemes, so an adult relationship certainly won't be sexually fulfilling for me. Not even sure if the biology would work, although I occasionally masturbate watching adult porn. Not to mention the hurdles to actually finding a partner who would be willing to engage in such a relationship and is trustworthy enough to know about my attractions. I really struggle finding my place in society. Living in constant fear of being exposed and mistreated for "who I am", although I haven't done any harm to anyone. People just don't understand the difference between being attracted to children and actually abusing them. Most of child molestors are actually not pedophiles. And most pedophiles do not abuse children, but life in quiet desperation. If one reads the comments of rare enough articles or videos about this subject, many people just want to see pedophiles dead. Admittedly, there are some people of higher development, who have the ability to evaluate the subject more accurately. The fact is: We exist! Our attraction exists! Deal with it! We have, too! Ironically, all the demonization of this topic will only push it further into the shadow and inevitably lead to more child abuse, because affected people feel excluded from society, more isolated, and thus more prone to commit acts of child abuse. In a more conscious world, pedophiles should be treated with the same amount of respect, love and trust like every citizen, because most pedophiles fundamentally are nothing but decent people. Under current conditions however, every person who feels this attraction, is forced in isolation, loneliness, despair and fear. I hope that you can now relate a little bit to what it means to be a pedophile in our current society. There is a chance, although not very likely, that your child could be a pedophile (approx 1%+ of general population, genetic/environental factors matter). How would you like your child to be treated if it would develop such an attraction? How would you yourself like to be treated in this position? I find comfort in the acceptance, respect and open-mindedness of higher developed people. There seems so be a slow but steady growth in awareness about this subject in society, so that we can hopefully expect a safer place for minor-attracted people and children in the future.
  14. I don't think that would change much really, not even sure he is gay. Because most people who never hooked up with their teen crushes still develop a teleiophilic sexuality (hetero/homo sexuality). In my opinion the problem is rooted in the emotional neglect I suffered in childhood. My first intuitive guess would be consciousness trying to complement itself through the polarity "innocent vs. not innocent", where a normal sexual polarity would be "male vs. female". I don't feel so much bothered with the attraction itself, it's more the consequences like isolation, solitude and inability to disclose truth about oneself. As of now, I don't have any difficulty controlling myself in that respect. Not sure if brain surgery is the right approach, even if it worked somehow to alter the sexual urges. Something tells me that it's not wise to interfere with mother nature, even if, or exactly because, we don't understand yet what it means in the larger context. Thanks anyway for your input.
  15. Sounds cool I‘ve been producing EDM for a few years, but now I don’t get drawn to it so much anymore. Maybe because of the dark night...
  16. @SoonHei There might be something to it. Eckhart Tolle talked about forgetting about yourself while seeing a beautiful sunset/landscape for example. I think that when we are fully immersed in watching TV, we are unconscious that we are doing so. Same with great sportsmen, that have perfected their game to the point where it happens unconsciously/effortlessly. But that does not mean that watching TV gets you enlightened ?.
  17. @Rilles Yes. Total absorption, becoming one with the activity you‘re doing. What kind of music do you make?
