People: The problem is I’m at a low point in my life. It feels terrible. Guru: It feels terrible because it’s not true. People: Idiot scammer. Realty’s so funny.

@Blessed2 The veiling is more of a being than a needing.

@Bob Seeker Great to hear!

The ultimate love has to sacrifice/veil itself.

Is your sister the same way? Behaviors and actions dictated by fear?

Good is nondual. But the knower knows otherwise. The knower even knows about where the knower hasn’t even been. People go from the US to India spiritually, seeking Happiness. 😂

What would you say to someone who said that? “How does it serve me” vs “how can I be of service to them”. By ‘filling up’ I mean with love. Takes two to tango. It can be clarifying to notice you don’t experience anyone else’s thoughts. Otherwise it can seem like the fear is because of what someone else might think about you, and pressure & expectations are coming from your siblings. It really does take two to tango.

Is misidentification a normal human activity?

@Someone here 🙏🏼♥️ Reality’s Good.

@Someone here An unfettered being. 🙂 Good’s all there is. If I don’t say “thank you” I don’t seem like a good person. 😂

@Jane Adorable. ☺️ Like a leaf treeing.

@Robed Mystic Oh yeah. Still though, with income being contingent on keeping your life purpose going, it’s highly unlikely it’s anything but a technical issue already being resolved. All the more reason not to fret.

Feel free to explore / answer any of the previous questions asked. That there is someone believing is a thought. Whatever reasons arise as answers to why, are / will also be thoughts. The answer to why isn’t what’s wanted. Happiness / satisfaction is wanted. Happiness / satisfaction is obscured by its own activity of appearing as thoughts. The dissonance experienced is that of the beliefs in parts / separation… with wholeness / reality. A conceptual answer might be more communicative. The last couple years have been spent as the hair and your life is a reflection of this. If the next couple years are spent as the tortoise, there will be no question as to truth (happiness / satisfaction / mindfulness / presence) and your life will be a reflection of this. The hair is fast, thinks fast, conceptualizes quickly & repeatedly and takes pride in that it thinks, knows, understands & does, and is therein overconfident, arrogant & self aggrandizing, deluded via mistaken identity, and in this obscuring… falls asleep, never making it to the ‘finish line’ as it were. The tortoise is slow, consistently meditates, acknowledges & allows emotions, slows down / takes the time to question, makes one small change at a time to diet, and therein the track & finish line are dispelled.

Where is ‘the knower’ that knows there is physical? Where is the knower which knows it’s identified? Where is the dissociator? Who or what is separate of consciousness & could or would identify as consciousness? Or is there an experience of a presumption? Where s the knower, that knows the thought experienced ‘brain’, defines perception, defines sensation, defines consciousness? Where’s the one who isn’t aware, but rather, pays attention? Where’s the knower which knows there’s a we which are talking? Where is “the understander”? How enjoyable, free & flowing, is this experience of conversing without false claims? If there’s a you repeating, what’s being said isn’t allowed. Isn’t allowed to be heard. That ‘not hearing’ is the same. Thoughts arise, are believed, and shared.

@Joseph Maynor Very nice. 🙂

There’s an experience of the belief, but is there an experience of a believer, or is it presumed you’re the I which believes (does)? There’s an experience of the thought that there is this which can’t be applied to my life, but is there an experience of an I which knows this, and accordingly with the I, a my life? There’s an experience of the thought that there is a brain which knows there are things, but is there an experience of a brain which knows there are things? There’s an experience of perception, sensation, and the thought I go to the gym, I lift weights, but is there an experience of that I which goes & lifts? Is there any experience of a future, or is there a present experience of thoughts? Happiness / satisfaction / presence is you, appearing as these thoughts, about another you, another time… obscuring.

🙂 Like air believing there’s this other thing, “wind”.

@Robed Mystic What would be better marketing?

Why?

Sometimes an interpretation feels discordant but the emotion felt, the guidance, the opportunity to align the interpretation is overlooked. Acknowleding and expressing the emotions allows the interpretation to change in that it’s aligned with feeling, with emotion, with the guidance - with what you actually want. Sometimes self referential thoughts, thoughts about a self in time, are overlooked. Emotion on the other hand is presently-experienced-only. So acknowledging & expressing emotions is inherently grounding and mindfulness as well. There’s much truth in the old saying, ‘no self, no problem’. When one is “lost in thoughts” (sep self referential thoughts), there tends to be a problem mindset. By acknowledging emotions, grounding / mindfulness / presence… problem mindset is dispelled and solution mindset is uncovered. The top of the scale, love, joy, etc, is you. Lower on the scale is the discord of some interpretations. Expression in this way is like emptying of any discord of thoughts, and thus unfettering or uncovering yourself. This stands to clarify seeking, or, the belief that the feeling-better sought could come from someone, something or some future experience… when in fact the greatest-feeling if you will, is what some thoughts obscure & are discordant to. Emotions are related to preferences (wants, desires, goals, what’s written on the dreamboard) as well. Some thoughts resonate with what you want to create & experience and some don’t. Emotion clarifies why some thoughts resonate in this way and some don’t more deeply & clearly than logic & reason, as the alignment felt is the actual manifesting of the preferences, ‘in the flesh’, if you will. Using the scale is akin to ‘plugging the vacuum in’. Plugged in, consciously creating is not only acknowledged, but is enjoyment and change happens / preferences manifest. Sometimes referred to as communion, this is like ‘you’ getting on board with You, or more specifically… aligning thought with feeling / alignment of interpretations with feeling. Behaviors & actions aligned with preferences (what you want to create & experience) naturally unfold as thought is aligned with feeling / emotions are acknowledged and expressed. Put another way, your goals, aspirations, actions and behaviors all align or harmonize (consciously creating / creating as the creator). Step one is create a dreamboard. As far as what to say, it’s enough to say ‘I am feeling or experiencing the emotion ____________’. This is the acknowledgment of the guidance. This is a shift of focus, from self referential thoughts / discordant interpretations and ‘problem mindset’… to Source if you will, the guidance, alignment… allowing solutions to arise. For example, one might be experiencing the thoughts “I’m scared” and “I’m insecure”, and feeling the discord of the thoughts, yet not noticing there isn’t the second self implied by the thoughts, and the emotions which are actually felt aren’t acknowledged. There is the Self which is being & feeling the thoughts, and the discord & alignment of thoughts therein. There isn’t the sep self thoughts are about. As focus shifts to acknowledging emotions (in this example), fear & insecurity are acknowledged to be felt / experienced. Acknowledgment of the emotions fear & insecurity is acknowledgment of the guidance, which the thought / interpretation feels ‘off’ / discordant with / to. A ‘problem mindset’ of some sort is noticed to be baked into or inherent in the (discordant) interpretation. In allowing the next emotion on the scale (jealousy in this example) to be expressed, the interpretation already begins to change, in the ‘direction’ or orientation of, alignment. Again, in this example, the alignment felt is the letting go of (no longer focusing on) the discordant self referential thought(s)… and an acknowledgment (jealousy) of preferences - of what you want, from what you’ve experienced. Little by little, up the scale, feeling, focus and thoughts / interpretations are aligned. This is preferences (what’s wanted, goals, desires, etc) - manifesting. With the dreamboard, clarify what you truly want in various areas of your life, such as career, hobbies, relationships & health. Imagine what’s wanted (preferences) already being actual / already being the case, and allow the feeling of the reality of this already being the case (already manifesting). That might bring up conditioning (the separate self of thought), like ‘aren’t I just imagining though?’, ‘don’t I have to still do a ton of work?’, ‘but it’s not the case and could only be the case in the future’ etc. Refer back to the scale if so, and consider the grounding, presence, mindfulness inherent in emotions & thoughts being experienced presently only. (Put in inversely, there is no actual experience of a separate self or future… so alignment of thought with feeling is alignment with reality as reality actually is). This inherently feels wonderful because reality is, that reality feels wonderful. Use the board to reveal all ‘big goals’ are really little steps, by writing what’s wanted to the right and allowing the smallest of steps to fill in to the left. The steps, seen visually, will naturally prioritize. Feel free to take a picture of the board to have as reference, and to erase and re-write steps in order of priority. If at a loss overall, consider referencing Maslow’s pyramid. If at a loss for ‘missing steps’, reference google, GPT and those with experience in the endeavors you’re interested in. Freely modify what’s on the board at any point as preferences can change and new insights & information come about. The board typically stars with a general idea & vision of what’s wanted, and becomes not only more specific but may also reveal what’s more deeply wanted / even more aligned & inspiring. It’s perfectly fine to ditch what doesn’t serve or align with your highest vision or aspirations (preferences). Place the board & the scale in a prominent, seen daily location. Re-align & retool the board as you go. Celebrate the smallest of victories & enjoy the synchronicity of the communion / unfolding. To expedite alignment, use affirmations.

Yes. Very wise & quite intuitive. Without avoidance the amazing thing is how you feel is, Good. The ‘a void ance’ must make it seem as if there’s a whole lot of good & bad.

Like a mirage. Actually, pretty much the same as a mirage.
