Passive, whole, choiceless awareness is like offering fire some water. We can see how thought-self is biased in the quality of awareness it depends upon. When faced with the latter, thought-self will invoke time-abstraction-fear-confusion-distraction — self-perpetuation. Indeed. ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feel Good then quickly lost his shit, spiraling downhill at lightening speed and somehow ultimately blamed it all on @Faceless, then stated he was leaving this forum for a Krishnamurti forum. ? It's been quite entertaining ! ? Damnit. I always miss the good shit. Thanks for the cliffs.

Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) @Anna1I appreciate the recap! Your summary really put some humor and perspective on the drama @FacelessYour shared wisdom has been much appreciated my friend. I felt the need to ask if you see it as necessary to fully grasp how the mind works with the mind before being able to dis-identify with the sense of self/mind. Also did your awakening change your personality or is personality merely a set of belief systems for the mind. If so, do you act freely however you choose in every moment?

I have reported you to moderation as I have noticed a pattern of repeated enjoyment in my reactions while you don't seem to express any concern for others and the countless times other takes themselves seriously on there boards. I suspect you have some sort of shadow fixation with me, as you seem to be ok with stirring the pot at the right times and then enjoying watching others in distress. That to me is schadenfreude ~ taking cynical pleasure in other peoples misfortune or embarrassment. Why do you feel the need to derive pleasure from other peoples psychological distress while simultaneously try to appear compassionate to others in distress? It doesn't make sense to me. @Feel Good You are taking all these helpful posts as unhelpful. Suggest you merely watch that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And why would I take advice about how to be happy from a person who seems to have some kind of vendetta playing out? I hardly post anymore dude, so nice try, but there's nothing to report. Gain some perspective, by getting away from forum posting and reading, for a bit, it will help not to take yourself so seriously on here. “You don’t have problems; you are the problem.” – Swami Chinmayananda Namaste ? ?

I didn’t edit that out my friend, and I meant it with good intentions. That was never edited out. What I meant was it’s your life so do what you want. Wasn’t meant to be offensive. It’s ok, I don’t want people to accept what I say. Edited August 25, 2018 by Faceless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 25, 2018 4 hours ago, Faceless said: The funny thing is it only takes as long as fear continues to influence observation. This was fairly simply to me. But I ended this psychological pursuit first, then the holistic understanding and awareness followed and was simple. To me it’s not work, but it does take all ones energy. To me this is all an art. I never came into this with a goal. That implies fear, attachment, reaction. Do what you want my friend, but I have no doubt you will see what I mean. You have to find out for yourself. I wish you the best as well. It’s right here my buddy. And it’s not a big deal. Right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
