“Getting”Desires 🪐

Your latest post was very eye-opening because since forever i have been a very possessive person with just about everything in my life: objects, people, even concepts. So to think that i own nothing and everything at the same time is very freeing but also very scary because of my extreme attachment to my things. I feel attached to my appearance, my circumstances, the stuff i own, everything. Sometimes, i catch myself wishing things were permanent and indestructible because just the thought of losing that attachment is dreadful. Now, i know thats not a me thing, i know everybody has at least a little bit of this possessiveness in them, but i really go to extremes. i have had multiple professionals tell me im way too attached and dependent on external things. And all this is to tell you that when i read your text, i really understood why im so persistent about not going within, and im very grateful that you posted it. Thank you, and sorry for rambling 😵‍💫

Omg I was just thinking of answering asks what a coincidence I finally got one! I get what you mean I used to be possessive too always trying to win people over and keep them around, desiring to be perfect physically and mentally and worrying what “other” people thought of me, which is funny now because if people are judging me it’s just them judging themselves. Don’t be hard on yourself if you still have the habit of desiring just remember separation doesn’t exist. 🫶🏼

hii!! so, i really understand nd! the only thing im stuck on is how to deal with intense emotions, because it messes the character up so much, like when "I" start feeling insecure, and worrying and it just feels so painful and distressing and yeah... any "tips" ? thx :)

Insecurities are caused by what we think other people will think of us, but that is all a creation of the mind. Remember that your insecurities and worries are only in the mind, not in reality. Come back to reality (which says nothing), come back to the present moment.

Memory Creates Misery.

The only reason you seem to be limited is because you believe you are. If your entire life everyone around you told you that you were a limitless omnipotent being you would have no limits right now. Without memory there is no doubt, no fear, and no desire. Right now, ask yourself “Who am I without my memories?” Without memories there is no “reference” for what you can and cannot do. If you shed all memories there’s no “Oh yeah I can’t perform miracles because I’ve never been able to or society told me I can’t.” But memories are like a mirage in the desert, you look closely and realize they aren’t real just like any other thought. Last night I was watching my mind freak out because of wanting survival of the body, it brought up past memories as a reference point as to why the body was ill, and projecting a future of running out of money to pay for medication. Then this morning I woke up feeling different, in a dreamlike state, and I got the epiphany that memory is the root of all limitations. Anyway I started to play around with the idea of having no memories, and the invisible chains seemed to fall away. When doubtful feelings come up I see that it’s just a feeling, and each moment is a new moment so there’s no need to rely on the past. The whole world is like a dream now and I can’t wait for you all to experience this.

Pain is an Illusion

I’m a drummer so last night I had tendonitis from drumming too much but I remembered that there is no one inside the body to experience tendonitis, and this morning the pain is gone. You are everything, being an individual inside the body is a delusion.

What does identification means? How do I identify? Could you give some examples?

For example right now when you see memories you think “those are MY memories.” Instead, just see them as belonging to no one, because there is already no one here for them to belong to. The person you think you are is just another thought.

You are already invincible, invisible, indescribable, with no life, no personality, no thoughts, and no anxiety.

You see a body, thoughts arise and you call it “me” and “my thoughts” (because people told you it was you) but where is the “me” who is thinking this? What even is a “me”?

(Notice how thoughts cease when you search for the “me” 🫢)

You could say you are the brain but what is keeping the brain alive? There has to be something prior to neuronal activity. Be THAT and throw away the sense of “I” which is the root of all suffering.

I used to think “I” was the highest state, but problems can exist where there is an “I”. If there is no “I” there is no “I have __” or “I am __” that is the start of all trouble 🙄.

When I look in the mirror, I can't immediately drop that it's not me, it feels so real 😭. I have desired to be my desired appearance but I realised this too. I can't change the current appearance because there is no appearance but how can I experience anything? Also how to drop the sense and feelings of I 🥲...

There is no “quick fix” it just becomes natural by observing and detaching over and over again. Look up Sunny Sharma meditations on YouTube to practice detachment from thoughts.

Hey!

I'm really sorry deep into this that I got lost...

Sometimes I understand everything but then next moment I gave into those doubts 🙂...

But then next moment I read that I'm not even giving in, it's all appearance

So I'm letting these empty appearances doubt myself and always be dependent on others 😭

I don't want to

Don’t take this too seriously or look into it too much all you need to know is that you are Brahman and all “things” are illusions. Doubts, too. Take a break if you need to

Your mental health is more important than trying to get all your desires in the physical world.

Your mental health is more important than trying to understand Non Duality.

Your mental health is more important than trying to kill the ego and become a Guru.

Your mental health is more important than trying to understand who created the universe and how you got here and what happens after the body dies.

Your mental health is more important than trying to become a Master Manifestor-Reality Shifter-Void Master-Demigod ™️ in the flesh.

All this trying is exhausting.

All you really want is inner peace. You assign people and objects to that inner peace but it’s always available to you through meditation. You can have every single crush and all the money in the world and still not be content, always getting bored and wanting more and more and more because you have no inner peace.

You yearn for the unconditional love and acceptance that only you can give yourself. There’s nothing wrong with loving people and loving the world, but first and foremost you want to love yourself and no one else can love you for you.

Happy Autumn 🍁 and be still.

Yeah but I don’t really get your explanation.. so rn you’re reading my answer but it’s not a person reading it’s just Brahman reading Brahman ??

Exactly, but “reading” is a concept
