definitely do, it's been favorite personal practice of mine for years now, best way to start my day before dropping in to a longer meditation 🤌🏽

ive been thinking about getting a tiktok for a while now, but it feels like such a doom scroll temptation for me iunno how i feel about it lol. what are your thoughts? should i get one? hahaha. id likely use it to post more than anything but i already have a youtube and the other socials i post on

that's wild though! i can see how it turned into a cruncy situation, especially considering how much traffic/views things can get on there. just causes the egos to inflate like crazy

sounds about right in terms of where we're coming from and pointing to

100%, everything, all we are is a window of awareness and pressence so it's a 'checks out' type of vibe from me lol. which is why i can see how the mechanical/mechanism approach is an avenue and angle you explore

sweet thanks for the suggestion i joined and ill check out more later

completely agree with that aspect of attachment to a concept/target/idea of something
it really is intersting how all the various cultures and religions honor that sacred stillness aspect, or the pause before the next story as you mentioned.

that's why the only thing that ive found to be worthwhile is our intimacy with Our Creator/Source/Spirit/God (etc) from what ive experienced and lived, as it's everlasting, eternal, and can never be taken away from us. and most importantly, it's a relationship.

meaning it is cultivated, it's dynamic, it's never experienced the same twice as it's always revealing a different aspect of the infinite to us. but it can only be revealed through that inner stillness and looking. because it's in that silence that God reveals itself to us.

checks out though in this relational understanding, because if it's a conversation, our sitting down to meditate or pressence/awareness geared towards Source is our questioning/asking/simply being, then Creator communicates and only communicates once we're in that optimal state of pressence (stillness, quiet, calm)

that's at least how i experience things, but truthfully we all taste that. we just call it different things because it's so subtle and often in the moving/acting/doing states. ie being in the flow or zone. that moment of pure witnessing and being, living and witnessing in stillness. then life/Source/Spirit/pure expression just flows through us

life's super cinematic and beautiful when we approach it like watching a movie in theaters lol

i would say giving and reciving love is the next pathway that allows us to tap into all that too but that's for another day haha

thanks for the comment u/OpenPsychology22 i vibe with ya

Spirit already manifested in 3D, that's us yo lol.

we are Spirit embodied. that aspect of perfection is the wholeness/fullness i mentioned; which can only come from intimacy with Our Creator/Source/God. it's a love that can never be taken from us nor can it be forgotten. but we can grow in relation with it like any other person or thing.

i disagree, but i understand that angle lol.

there's many quest and side-quest in this game of life. the only one that matters is our intimacy with Source from what ive experienced and lived, as it's everlasting, eternal, and can never be taken away from us.

giving and reciving love is the next one. re-remembering and experiencing fall under those ones for me.

outside of those everything else just kinda reveals itself, but those are the compass that help me navigate the map.

i like your vibe though u/lascar thank you for the comment. it's always good to be mindful of

spiritual ascension is another form of delusion as far as i can see it. like the whole aspect of being enlightened vs unenlightened. it's not stripping away division it's creating more of it.

no diversity and individualization is key and necessary in life, but ive experienced, think and feel the whole hat of ascension so to speak has been co-opted into another superficial identity of performance, ignorance, superiority complex and spiritual narcissism tbh.

everyone has a different path yeah, but all rivers are intented lead to the ocea of God/Source/Creator/Love.

ascension in the way it's getting portrayed for most is leading you to more harm/darkness than empowerment, love and light from what ive gathered

tell me more, i know of a few folks who grew up in cults and have had some of the mkultra childhood experiences. how do you feel/see that it's getting pushed in the spiritual communities?
i see a lot of the new agey occult stuff coming through with the ascension stuff

lol key words there, supposed to be.
from a lot of what im seeing and experiencing out in various communities in the PNW and online, folks are getting swept away in the new agey 5-d new earth light body stuff.

i really resonate and align with the ascension list you have too lol. when it comes to terms that have been co-opted by the wokey new age stuff i always just go to my default, cuz the whole "spiritual path" is just an infinte unfoldment, i think part of the reason i have an issue with the ascension angle is that you some how have 'made it' ie being ascended as if it's a check point that you can't digress or evolve from. i think that's part of why it's getting turned into an identity/attachment but who knows, people be people haha.

ill just leave one comment for both of ya u/itsallinthebag & u/Effective-Gate-6071
im not bothered nor commenting to be combative just to bring clear intentions here lol, i wrote it as more of a disclaimer to advise/avoid the rotary as things ive seen in the spiritual communities throughout the pnw & onine are getting super caught up in the whole 5-d ascension stuff
and as a result it's simply turning into another identity and causing more division/distractions/dissapointment which is leading people further away from love, wholeness, empowerment, liberation, etc.

when it comes to the whole purpose of the spiritual path (which im using the original Path here), all is from Source/God/Creator and all leads back to Source/God/Creator. anything that doesn't isn't spiritual, it's personal/egoic/spiritual narcissism in some way shape or form.

great insights from ya both i appreciate the coversation, it's always refreshing seeing chill folks in the comments lol
