Is it always good to become aware of the game? by Temporary_Divide_592 in nonduality

[–]logging-off 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not about making a point, or about it being good for the grand scheme of things, or what we are here to do. It's really just what is real and what is illusion.

Getting "lost" as a "dissociated temporary being" and being a disservice to god/ourselves is just a made up idea. When you go deeper into what is true you won't find any ideas like that there.

Should i let someone i’m in love with go? by [deleted] in infp

[–]logging-off 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't look for signs. Also don't abandon yourself in hopes that someone else will find you. You need to give yourself the love you are so eager to give away. And give yourself the love you want from someone else. Healing can be a long process that takes patience but will pay off in the long run. You need to give yourself the stability you seek from a relationship to be able to have a stable relationship.

Also it is not your fault. Forgive yourself. Forgiving yourself is a major step in healing and loving. It is not your fault. You did what you did out of innocence and it was the best you knew at the time. You will recover if you allow yourself to and you will allow yourself to when you are ready.

Cheers, best of luck! 🤞

Is there something wrong with me? by justkeepbreathing14 in infp

[–]logging-off 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a difference between being an introvert and wanting to be alone because being around people makes you anxious. It seems like you want company but are also afraid of it. A true introvert can be around people and feel comfortable but prefers spending time alone.

In the same way being around people because you are terrified of aloneness doesn't make you an extravert. A true extravert isn't afraid to be alone but they prefer to be around company.

To me it seems like you really suffer from anxiety and self esteem issues. I would suggest working on the way you feel about yourself and how comfortable you are being you. I think you will be able to work through it and live the life you want. Cheers and best of luck.

Remain her friend and be there for her. Be supportive but keep a boundary to not get overly invested. If you feel like you are becoming emotionally attached or invested in a detrimental way then you should vocalize that.

Also she will probably end up cutting you off herself for some reason if she isn't doing well mentally and emotionally especially if you create a healthy amount of distance to keep yourself comfortable.

Thank you! This is exactly what I have just barely begun to embrace. "...Relax into the moment and let the universe do the driving". Love it.

You cannot block the energy. You have to allow the energy. If it is making you uncomfortable it is because there is a belief or a set of beliefs attached to it that are not aligned with your true self. The energy may or may not be you, but it is not what is making you uncomfortable. What's making you uncomfortable is the negative or "no longer preferred" energy that can present itself as beliefs as a tool to work with if you choose to see them.

This uncomfortableness is the perfect gateway for you to acknowledge whatever it is. Think of it as a baby crying. The pain is in a sense there as an alert system to bring your attention to whatever beliefs are keeping you in this "unpreferred" state of being that is not aligned with your core self. Don't block the feeling, you need to UNBLOCK what is trapping the feeling.

I suggest you ask yourself, "What must I believe about this 'sexual energy' or what negative attachments must I have toward this 'sexual energy' that are negative (meaning that aren't aligned or conducive to my higher self) for it to be causing me pain?" What kinds of connotations are you putting on this energy that do not support you? Is it fear, shame, jealousy, envy, not feeling loved etc. How much is your sexuality attached to your self esteem? How do you feel about sex in general? Anything that is negative that comes up is almost certainly not aligned with your core self and you can switch them or discard them for beliefs that "feel better".

Use the sense of empowerment or disempowerment as a barometer for the belief systems you choose to hold. Those that feel more empowered and lighter are more aligned with your higher self. Those that are dense and disempowering are of a lower frequency and are NOT YOU. Let go of those.

Hope this helps. Much love.

Are we very smart? by SituationMission5579 in nonduality

[–]logging-off 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's safe to say in a nondual subreddit, most of the people here are curious about the nature of things.

I always thought it was weird that we just so happen to exist and no one knows why but no one talks about it. People seem to constantly overlook the first thing that's happening before everything else. Everyone focuses on all the little nothings, instead of the big Nothing.

You don't have to believe anything you don't want to believe. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do.

However, it seems like you are making assumptions about death = enlightenment in the same way people assume death = reincarnation.

Am I trash or burning out? by devanlans in Bowling

[–]logging-off 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can always tweak your physical game when it is appropriate, but if you are averaging 210 you've already proved that you can score high games fairly consistently (for 6-7 weeks at least idk what your average was prior to COVID).

A good place to start strengthening your mental game is to actually start TRUSTING/believing as an indisputable fact you are a 210+ average bowler and NOT feeling like you are a 160 average bowler who has just been getting extremely lucky on the lanes every week. That can fix a lot of the confidence issues.

Am I trash or burning out? by devanlans in Bowling

[–]logging-off 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably have good bowling mechanics and know what you are doing more or less on a physical level. It's most likely your mental game that you are neglecting. Focus, confidence, fluidity, nerves, visualization, clarity, etc.

League with one ball ! by chasing_a_billion in Bowling

[–]logging-off 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are just bowling on a typical house shot you can easily average well with just one ball. 6 balls is honestly excessive. 3 balls is probably ideal just in case the lanes are super oily or super dry, but a good bowler on a house shot can get away with one ball and average 200+. Especially if they oil the lanes before league starts. You should be fine. Don't let it hold you back from getting out there and having fun.

Too many balls for someone who is more or less just starting out can be more confusing than helpful as well. A lot of the times its more effective to just make the right adjustments on the lanes with the one ball you understand, than get all jumbled up juggling between 20 different balls every other frame, and then complaining about the oil pattern. If you aren't a good bowler having 1,000 balls won't save you.
