i literally just proved to myself that i finally understand non-dualism. back when i didn’t understand it well i would always be aware of abt my “hard circumstances” (quotations bc they’re not real) and panic/have intrusive thoughts when stuff “happened”, and think “when is it gonna materialize” and stuff like that.

but just a few minutes ago i found out abt a new “circumstance” that would have made me panic and doubt everything if it had happened even yesterday

just before i found out abt this new “circumstance” i read @msperfect777 ‘s “understanding non-dualism” series which helped me a lot with truly grasping what i rly am

anyways when i found out abt the thing just now, i didn’t panic at all. i didn’t react to the “3d”. i didn’t rly even think any thoughts. rather, i just KNEW that it wasn’t real. i knew that consciousness (aka me) is the only thing that exists so the “3d” doesn’t even matter, bc i only care abt imagination. and in imagination, i already “have” my “desires”.

like i said, this didn’t even come in the form of a thought. i was simply aware of it. i did it w/o having a limiting/negative thought beforehand that i needed to fight with a new thought. bc i was AWARE of it w/o needing to think.

a question i had abt non-dualism after reading ms. perfect’s posts was “how can i tell myself not to worry abt the nonexistent “physical world” w/o thinking?” bc i don’t have much experience with being conscious of my consciousness and i have yet to observe how a lot of it works, and i mean, i think i just answered my own question. when u truly understand non-dualism, YOU DON’T HAVE TO CONVINCE YOURSELF OF ANYTHING. YOU DON’T HAVE TO THINK IT TO BELIEVE IT. “convincing urself” and “thinking” r not real, and when u start to realize what u actually r, u just know instinctually that u don’t have to worry.

i also have always been kinda confused abt the “there is nothing to manifest” part, bc i didn’t think fulfilling myself in imagination would be effective since constant reminders of my “3d” were all around me and would distract me/knock me down. but i get it now! when u truly understand what u rly r, YOU DON’T EVEN CARE ABT THE “PHYSICAL WORLD” BC YOU TRULY SEE HOW IT IS NOT REAL!! so ur “circumstances” DON’T EVEN MATTER to u, that’s how u can fulfill urself in imagination w/o getting distracted by the “3d”!

thank u sm @msperfect777 , u rly helped me and i’m so grateful for u aaaaaa <3

Give up.

Stop resisting and accept all your apparent circumstances as they are. Stop trying to control the illusion. 

F🍄ck off

When you really don't care about your life, you'll notice how it miraculously becomes easier. The circumstances that hurt you disappear. You can breathe deeply. You feel free. 

And at that moment, you really understand what reality is and who you are. 

You are deeply aware of this mechanism. 

You stop resisting, and the resistance disappears. 

Try it, it's really simple.

You and I both know people who have been searching for many, many years but haven’t much to show for it. They remain under the sway of their conditioned dream. You can go to satsongs, follow gurus, read all the books you like but if you truly seek the taste of ease, dive deep into unconditioned awareness, stabilize in this poise until resting utter emptiness. What you think you should be, how life should be, loses its grip. You enjoy the show, dance with it, grateful for its twists and turns, without being submerged. You know the dream has nothing to offer.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM “TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY”

[SESSION 16 OF “KEYS TO THE ULTIMATE FREEDOM” BY LESTER LEVENSON]

♡ We have lost sight of our mastership and have ~eluded ourselves into thinking we are victims in a world that controls us, that pushes us around. It isn't so! We are causing what is happening to us by giving power, our power, to the external world. If you want to regain your control, you must take full responsibility. How to regain your control? By examining your thinking and correcting it.

♡ Then I, myself, am my own block, and other people do not influence me.

♡ You choose not to use your omniscience, your basic nature. You choose to be ignorant of your omniscience by saying, “I am a limited mind-body.” Who thinks all your thoughts? You do! It's all your doing. What we accept is what we choose to accept. It's always our choice. It is now our choice to be extremely limited bodies. And when you don't accept your responsibility for that, you have no possibility of getting out of that extreme limitation.

♡ Lester: What you need to do is not to say it, but want it so strongly that you override the contrary unconscious habits and do it! Q: Overriding the unconscious habits is hard to do because they keep sneaking up on you and you don't realize sometimes you've got them. L: It depends on how strong your desire is for the thing that you want as to whether the unconscious habits override it. We have infinite power, infinite will, and when man so wills he's immediately set free. And the reason why we don't do it is that we don't have that much desire for it. We still have more desire to be limited bodies.

♡ L: You're convinced we don't have the choice. Q: No. speaking from experience, sometimes when you really want something, it seems like the opposite happens. L: Everything you really wanted strongly in your life you got, because mind is only creative. These are things you have got to dig out and recognize for yourself. You're getting exactly what you want, as is everyone. Because you don't look at your thoughts and you call them unconscious does not mean you don't have them.

♡ Q: I'm afraid of my unconscious, did you know that? Lester: How does that help you see your unconscious thoughts? Q: Consciously I tell them to go a way. Lester: So they stay operative all the time. Thoughts have no will of their own. You have the will. Unless you pull them up into consciousness and look at them, you can't let go of them. When you see them consciously, you'll automatically let go of them, the ones you don't like, because you don't like them.

♡ Q: How can you become conscious of your unconscious thoughts? L: By practice. Just the way you're doing it now; anything you want to think of comes to your mind. What you are going to say to me five minutes from now is not conscious right now, it is unconscious. Five minutes from now you'll pull up what you want. Now if we make it a habit of pulling up thoughts, we can do it easily. The more we practice it, the easier it is to do. It's a good habit; saves a lot of unnecessarily living out karma. Honest introspection works quickly and beautifully like a surgeon with a knife. We control the unconscious; we keep back there all that we want to keep back there, and then when we want it up in the conscious, we pull it up.

♡ Q: Do you have to go through this phase of clearing up the unconscious before you can accept the theory that you are unlimited? L: It is necessary in the beginning and it also makes for rapid progress. Later, after much progress, you can will it out. There are basically two ways of growing: one is eliminating the mind, the subconscious; the other is putting in the positive, seeing who and what you are.

♡ Q: When you put in the positive doesn't the opposite seem to take effect? L: Sometimes. However, when you see your real Beingness you'll scorch the opposite. You'll say, “That's ridiculous to remain miserable, sick, unhappy, etc.” and you'll begin to scorch it. There is a tendency in the direction you're asking. If I say “hot” you think of “cold,” right? If I say “up” it implies “down.” That is in the nature of thought itself. But I wouldn't use that to imply that we can't wipe out the negative by seeing the positive that we are, because we can.

♡ Now, if you have love for (these) people you would want them to have what they want.

♡ Q: By the way, you mentioned before that by bringing up the subconscious you could eliminate karma. How? L: Karma is in the thought, not in the act. When you do something, it's the thought that's carried over in the subconscious that instigates the act next time. Eliminate subconscious thought and you eliminate future karma. It's the thought that carries over from lifetime to lifetime. So if you bring the thought up and you reverse it, karmically it's gone.

♡ Q: I want to know how to control what you think. I do not feel I can control how I think. L: You do it by first accepting the idea that you can. Then you try it and you succeed once; when you succeed once then you know you can try it again. When you succeed twice, the second time is easier. The third time is yet easier than the first two, etc. The more you do it the easier it gets. This leads to complete control and freedom. Q: By control you mean changing your thinking? L: Yes. We control all our thinking. If I do something wrong it's because I decide to carry out something wrong, that's all. And if I make it unconscious, I do it. Did I hear you say, “Take full responsibility?” that's it! If you want to grow you must take full responsibility for everything you do, for everything that happens to you. Trace all happenings to their originating thought in your mind.

♡ Q: I still feel I can hurt people. L: You can't. People hurt themselves; you don't hurt them. Q: Well, if I can't hurt anyone. I can't help anyone either!

♡ Q: This business of when you try to put in the positive thought and oftentimes the negative seems to be strengthened, is it because while you're putting in the positive, you're holding onto what you're fighting? So that all you need to do is just do it? L: Yes. When you want to do it enough, you'll just do it. Q: When you do that, you just let go of it. You don't hold it in mind and it isn't. L: Right! When the conscious wish to let go is stronger than the unconscious wish to hold on, then you let go. These habits are very strong; the unconscious wish for them is very strong. The conscious wish has to be stronger to override it.

♡ Q: Then if you have a conscious wish and you're trying to accomplish something and you can't do it, it's because you have a subconscious habit that is blocking you. Well, how do you get rid of that subconscious wish that I s blocking you? L: By making the conscious wish stronger. Or, by pulling up the unconscious wish to the contrary and looking at it. When you see it, you automatically let go of it; you won't hold it down there any more.

♡ L: Yes, when you first see it (Self), it's a tremendous experience that you'll never forget. But the mind has not been undone and therefore reemerges. But seeing it scorches a good part of the mind each time you see it. Q: The more you see it then... L: The more you scorch the mind, until the mind is totally undone. Then you're in the steady state. You regress no more. It's possible to see all the way, see the Oneness, by momentarily submerging the mind. But as long as that mind is not undone it will re-emerge.

♡ The reason why it's so difficult to want it (Self) that much is that we have been wanting the illusory world for so long that we don't let go of the illusion very easily. Even though intellectually we know the illusion causes the misery, through long-time habit of thinking that the joy is in the external world, we just don't let go of it easily.

♡ You go out into nature to enjoy nature; what you're really enjoying is the freedom obtained by the dropping away of all the unhappy thoughts and pulls of society. And that's escape.

♡ All joys should be being what you are. We should never enjoy anything. In order to enjoy something we have to go into the illusion of separateness. The joy should be independent of things, independent of people. However, then one sees the Truth, one can choose to enjoy, and the closer one gets to Truth the more one is capable of enjoying. One becomes sensitized and everything becomes far more intense. But there’s no need to go out and enjoy nature because your basic nature is joy.

♡ You are responsible for everything that you feel. It's your feelings; it's your thoughts. You turn them on; you think them, and no one else but you doe s it, and you act as though you have no control! You turn a faucet on your head and you say. “Oh, someone is getting me all wet.” It's you who's turning on the faucet and getting yourself wet. So your direction has been, remains, and will be, take full responsibility for what's happening to you. Then you'll see by looking in the direction of “I am doing this,” that you are! Then when you see that you're torturing yourself, you'll say, “My gosh, how stupid can I be?” And you'll stop, and instead of torturing yourself, you'll make yourself happy.

♡ Now no one is an effect of the unconscious mind, the unconscious habits and tendencies, unless he chooses to be. You are cause over the unconscious mind; you set it up; you're choosing to follow it. The day you decide not to, that day you're through with it! It's simple. When you don't look at what you are doing, it's a forever process of being miserable. You think miserable thoughts and you feel miserable, and you don't take responsibility for thinking these thoughts. So what chance have you got for getting out of it? 

♡ Once you take responsibility for your thoughts, you've got control. You can turn them off, change them, put in good thoughts, until you overcome the bad thoughts. Then you'll drop thoughts. You'll see how stupid it is to think. All thoughts are things of limitation and you're happiest when there are absolutely no thoughts. And when there are absolutely no thoughts you are in the top state. So what’s difficult about that? Q: The unconscious mind. L: No. It is you! It's not the unconscious mind. This is the point I've been trying to get across. It's not the unconscious mind. You would like to make it the unconscious mind. You would like to make it other than you. That’s why you want the Masters, or you want to pass a wand over you and do it for you, but you don't want to do that which makes you happy. You're choosing to do that which makes you unhappy. Can you see this? It's so simple. Whose thoughts do you think? Why all these unhappy thoughts? The moment you choose not to have them. you won't have them.

♡ Look to you, look to you(rself). Look to find out who and what you are. Only when you know who you are will you know who I am. Only by discovering what you are will you understand what this universe is. Until you understand what you are, you can not see this universe clearly. It's a hazy mist. When you discover who you are, you'll see that this whole universe is right within you. Like the universe in a night dream is within you. You must take full responsibility. Otherwise you have no chance of ever getting out of the mess. If you attribute the cause to it as something other than you, that not being true, you can never get out of the mess.

Rant #2

Happiness doesn't exist, just like sadness doesn't exist. Guilt, fear, loneliness, anxiety all of them don't exist. I think all of us don't "want" or "feel" these "negative" emotions. So through pointers and going inward we let go of these emotions. What many get wrong is that you ALSO need to let go of "positive" emotions. Most people look into or find LOA and Non dualism as a solutions or the last hope to find Happiness, peace and fulfilment of your desire.

Why are you giving so much importance to something that doesn't exist?

why are you determining your life right in this moment of awareness is not enough?

Why is SELF not enough for you?

How does physical pleasure of objects, feelings, SP, or other things have more value then self?

Why do you let them have more value?

Yes YOU LET THESE EMOTIONS HAVE VALUE.

LET THEM GO

They don't exist, you pick and choose what "exists" or not. Your Awareness is what gives it "life", there is no existence there is nothing. existence is nothing without awareness why? because even when you die this body is gone, this life is gone what is not gone, the REAL you AWARENESS. Awareness is what gives nothing and everything existence.

Life is full of pleasure, pain, lust, forgiveness, success, failure, love, hate.

Do you now what all of these have in common?

they don't f*cking exist. Let them go.

yes happiness as well. Fulfilment. Succes. All of them.

LET THEM GO(no literally stop giving these things value they don't exist)

(i hope this made sense, If you have any questions comment them or do anons and ill try my best to answer)

Consciousness is the changeless, indivisible field of unfolding possibilities not bound to space, time, name or form. It is only our socially conditioned mind that unconsciously judges, compares, competes and separates each other.”

Why you're having trouble.

Refuse your old patterns of feeling and thinking. Leave your mind alone, go beyond it.

You are waiting at non-existent painted doors, which will never open. Don't wait, nothing will happen by waiting. There is only now.

Inquire who is causing trouble and to whom.

I think many are still on the lookout because they have a certain "end of the road" criterion.

Instant "materialization", absolute happiness, non-existence.

You forget that you are not looking for anything, but rather remembering. That is, all of the above is already inherent in you, but you keep looking.

So my favorite advice is: give up.

Who are you fighting against?

You don't acquire any specific skills, you don't become a mental guru and an absolute being. There will be no "wow".

You've always been one. There's nothing to look for. The fact that it was pointed out to you should really be enough.

You already. STOP SEARCH!

Desires arise because you don't remember your true nature. 

Let's say you found a beautiful stone on the street. To make it yours, you need to bring it home. 

Do you collect things, people at home, because that's the only way they can be yours by right?

But you are not a person in the world, the world itself is in you. 

You are the home for all seeming things and people. Their creator. 

So, every stone in the illusory world belongs to you. It is not necessary to carry it home to indicate belonging.

There's nothing to want when you know that the whole world belongs to you. 

And, watching everything from this position, you notice how things and events that you once seemed to want suddenly happen to you. Effortlessly. 

Any thought finds a place in an illusory "physical" reality, because there is no difference between "mental" and "physical". 

You let go of control of the world, and it begins to obey you. 

Take away the resistance and be happy.

Go with the flow just for the sake of experiment. See what happens.

No need to identify with what happened yesterday or may happen tomorrow. Stand upright simply as you are today.

Nisargadatta Maharaj

[crystaldust]

What you think of as the past is a memory trace, stored in the mind, of a former Now. When you remember the past, you reactivate a memory trace — and you do so now.

The future is an imagined Now, a projection of the mind. When the future comes, it comes as the Now. When you think about the future, you do it now.

Past and future obviously have no reality of their own. Just as the moon has no light of its own, but can only reflect the light of the sun, so are past and future only pale reflections of the light, power, and reality of the eternal present. Their reality is “borrowed” from the Now.

Hello! Sometimes when “I” tell the ego that “I am not her” or “ I have everything I want” , the ego get this sharp in her heart. I don’t know if that is her body rejecting these ideas or that she strongly believes that she is real. However, it has started to hurt so bad that I can not help to identify with the body. Could this be explained for some reason or is it because I am aware of the pain that it shows up.

Ofc she believes she is real bc as long as you are identified with her she will be. She IS. She exists.

Love her, accept her. Completely and fully. But disregard her desires and fears because they are not you or of yours. Be free of her confusion and softly remind yourself of who you are. Let her be.

She is not hindering you, but doing her best with what she knows. And you have the knowledge of the REAL you, so if you want to change things about her, be aware of things being changed, don't consult with her about it, simply let her be & you do you.

Feel the pain and let it go... surrender 💟

Hi!! It’s been months since I first learnt about this, and there’s something I still don’t understand about what Ada was saying which is — do we have to literally ignore circumstances to make them go away? As in, not getting emotionally involved with them anymore, or just shut out the thoughts of it every time they come up? as I understood, a situation is only kept alive because you either identify with it, or because you pay attention to the “reality” of it

Though I’m pretty sure I got it right but, just wanted to make sure 💀 thanks for archiving her posts by the way, they’ve been helping me a lot

You’re welcome <3

I mean, if nothings exists but you, how much attention do you need to give an apparency? Don’t do anything to the thoughts, let them pass, they’re irrelevant. What I’ve been doing nowadays is thinking the worst thoughts as a challenge. To prove to myself they have no power when I know myself to be who I am. Nothing bad happened, never will. I like doing it because it gives me a certain kind of power when in the past I used to fear them. I do it on purpose, like "do your worst" kind of thing to my own mind. It’s been proven harmless and the thoughts worthless.

What materializes/exists is only what you are. Esentially nothing if you don’t know yourself to be a person, somewhere. But you’ve always known yourself as something. Choose a different thing, resistance (and urgency) only comes up when you go back to trying to make it happen in the world instead of just being it.

Neville again since the masses love him:

Tldr; yeah, ignore it! but from the place of knowing who your real self is, not a forcing meant to soothe the ego <3 you know the difference in your feeling: do you feel calm/superior or jittery and unsure? good way to check where you’re coming from when doing anything.

To be identified to your mind is to be trapped in time: the compulsion to live almost exclusively through memory and anticipation. This creates an endless preoccupation with past and future and an unwillingness to honor and acknowledge the present moment and allow it to be. The compulsion arises because the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whatever form. Both are illusions.
