Enlightenment: Where’s the love & bliss?

[John3596]

I’ve had many awakening experiences induced by self inquiry. My question is-when is the fun part? Every time it happens, I just feel myself disappearing and it is rather frightening, as everyone I love disappears too and it feels like there is no one else in any of my loved ones bodies. I just don't like the solipsistic part of it. Any tips on how to get over this so I can go deeper and fully experience my awakening without fear? I always cut it off before it goes to deep.

@John3596 You gotta explore other Awakening facets.

Also contemplating what Love is.

 

In case you are into psychedelics, trying MDMA could give you that pure Love feeling. If you do so, try a good dose, the point is to breakthrough and it's a very easy going trip.

 

As a personal note, I also struggle with the Love facet. I'm so much more talented in all other areas. I also miss that pure Love in my Awakenings... We are all different, we cannot choose what we are good in, we may be naturally geared towards some States of Consciousness over others and that is fine, we have to make peace with it.

You just have to be willing to let go into the fear and trust yourself infinitely. If there is resistance to that, ask yourself why. Then it's up to you how to proceed. You don't have to be ready if you don't feel ready. You can keep exploring being a human if that is what you want. Stay true to what you want.

Likely experiences so keep at it.

Go for what's true now, not hearsay.

Good luck.

Try to follow this short inquiry:

Enlightenment or awakening? 

You walk unmarked paths through the deep forest, and it is dark for a time. Fear will come up because the ground isn't known. Brambles to trip on, steep declines, slippery rocks.

I only say the above because it is common and natural to feel fear. 

If you let yourself feel this fear (and you should, repression will block your access to other emotions also) is it the Unknown? Everything you know, how to be, is dissolving. Take a look into the fear - it won't actually hurt you, despite what your mind might think. Many people do not realise that allowing feelings does not pose a threat to us. It just appears this way 🙂

Uncertainty runs the opposite direction to survival. And survival is all about certainty.

Have you tried 5-MeO-MiPT? It could really help awaken to Love.

Love is there when you realize solipsism is not true and everything is an expression of One Conciousness that we all share. That shared union is love.
