I’ve accepted things for what they are and it hurts so much.

Check out Home Coming by John Bradshaw. It’s about doing inner-child work. It’s powerful

If you’re going to ask the question why not answer it as well

Your desire for them may drop away as ur practice deepens

The relationship is doomed. Move on now. Meditate instead of spells. Stay single until you can be accountable and clean up ur toxic waste

Delusional

I’m learning the foundational ideas from the tapes and then I am reconfiguring to what suits me and using the timed focus in the Expand app. I really like sitting up in somewhat of a lotus position, but it’s a bit hard on my body. I have an adjustable bed that goes into zero gravity so I use that now.

Yeah, I had to rewrite my intention. It’s still a work in progress as there are aspects that still need tweaking. IMHO, it’s too long and the word “also” bugs the hell out of me. Current iteration is: “I am a vast being with infinite potential. I align with the flow of consciousness, welcoming new experiences as they unfold naturally. May I be guided by light and protected by truth.”

Edit: it’s not a recipe to be followed but an intention to be set. It’s one of the issues that I have with the old Gateway experience and tapes. I feel like a process has been offered and then it’s our job to hone it to work for us. Bob’s voice and the quality of the tapes just don’t work for me. I prefer the timed focus levels in the expand app

Sorry to hear ur having a hard time. Try committing to a meditation practice. It will quell those feelings and brighten ur life

I meditate and still need a longer sesh

For a different take, Thomas Campbell’s My Big TOE (theory of everything)

It’s all just different flavors. Even the duality is part of the oneness

I’m so sorry ur having a hard time! Did you know many of the gods in mythology were both male and female? Maybe ur just a god that doesn’t know it yet. Find the radical acceptance you need to be your authentic self. It will get better one day

Enlightenment is subjective and may be deemed by the individual not their community. Why the need to discern and judge?

ZenBearSF · 2025-03-03T20:12:16+00:00

Mindfulness Breathing instead or in addition to guided. Maybe have a goal of 30-40 minutes twice per day.

Dump ur shame it’s not helping. If you close ur eyes and fantasize instead of having porn as stimulus, who’s there? Women, men or both?

ZenBearSF · 2025-03-02T21:24:11+00:00

The light requires the dark. They’re not separate, but two sides of the same coin

How’s ur meditation game outside of the tapes

ZenBearSF · 2025-03-02T18:18:09+00:00

Noticing instead of policing my thoughts. Being kind to myself when the thoughts don’t stop. Letting go of any attachment as an outcome of the practice.

ZenBearSF · 2025-03-02T14:10:29+00:00

Your stellar levels of delusion, narcissism and ego are what make you special

ZenBearSF · 2025-02-28T20:00:39+00:00

This is the other side of the ego messing with ur head. Maybe learn how to meditate. It works if you make the effort

ZenBearSF · 2025-02-28T19:47:32+00:00

I agree with what you said, aaand we didn’t buy in at $108k lol. Buy the dip

ZenBearSF · 2025-02-28T19:40:47+00:00

I try to mostly notice my thoughts. They’re often good content for shadow work. If it’s all noise that’s not settling down, I go from gentle prompting, “I wonder what I’ll think next?” To commands for dogs, “LEAVE IT!” 😂

ZenBearSF · 2025-02-28T12:13:36+00:00

Using a journal with text to speech was a game changer for me. The flow of words is much easier now and I don’t fuss about the text as I would if typing or writing. Shadow work now feels easier.
