You are the luminous mystery in which the entire universe with its forms and phenomena arises and subsides. When this realisation dawns there is a complete transformation of your personal self into your universal self… the complete loss of all fear, including death. You have become a being who radiates love the same way the sun radiates light. You have finally arrived at the place from which your journey began.

One of the funniest failures of US school system is the fact they are legally obligated to teach us all the states but they never actually show how big Alaska is like I have actually had teachers tell me that Texas is the biggest state. We have all just convinced ourselves that Alaska is that small shrunken down thing on most US maps and the people that know it's the largest state can almost never accurately describe how large it is.
For context here is a picture
It has a national park that’s bigger than maine. Or Switzerland. A park.
I lived in Alaska for two years and I will never get over the sheer overwhelming bigness of it.
Nights where the sky is clear you can see clusters of stars or the Northern Lights dancing. When the lights are rippling especially strong and fast you can hear a static crackle in the air. When the moon is out after it’s snowed, you don’t need flashlights to see. Everything glows and glimmers like polished quartz.
But when the sky is clouded over so you can’t see the stars, you can kind of almost sense the mountains towering over you and helping to block out the light, these giant monoliths acting like this void darker than your soul. I’ve never experience night like Alaska night.
Everything is big, the mountains, the sky, the valleys.
And the dark.
what the fuck
If meat was really a "necessity” to one’s diet, then why are we eating buffalo wings, bbq ribs, fried chicken and double bacon cheeseburgers? This is all just guilty pleasure. Take away all the sauces, seasonings, and dressings and nobody would eat meat anybody more. Go vegan and enjoy these same dishes without killing innocent beings.
Shoutout to the vegan gods for making nutritional yeast literally the SAME EXACT TASTE as cheese and even the SAME COLOR as cheese to make for the perfect cheese alternative. Vegans are too lucky.
The easiest way to get into the meditative state is to begin listening. Simply close your eyes and allow yourself to hear all the sounds that are going on around you, listen to the general hum and buzz of the world as you listen to music. Don’t try to identify the sounds you are hearing, don’t put names on them, simply allow them to play with your eardrums. Let them go. In other words, let your ears hear whatever they want to hear. Don’t judge the sounds: there are no proper sounds nor improper sounds, and it doesn’t matter if somebody coughs or sneezes or drops something—it’s all just sound. As you pursue that experiment you will very naturally find that you can’t help naming sounds, identifying them, and go thinking, talking to yourself inside your head, automatically. But its important that you don’t try to repress those thoughts by forcing them out of your mind because that will have precisely the same effect as if you were trying to smooth rough water with a flatiron—you’re just going to disturb it all the more. What you do is this: as you hear sounds coming into your head, thoughts, you simply listen to them as part of the general noise going on just as you would be listening to cars going by, or birds chattering outside the window. So look at your own thoughts as just noises. And soon you will find that the outside world and the inside world come together. They are a happening. Your thoughts are a happening just like the sounds going on outside, and everything is simply a happening and all you are doing is watching it.

I know this transformation is painful but you’re not falling apart; you’re just falling into something different, with a new capacity to be beautiful.

Your responsibility and behavior!
Not that other (spiritual) person is responsible for your own behavior. Your behavior or actions, that can, will be harmful to others. So deliberately harming others is out of the question. For everyone. Because with that you build up negative karma. That is not the reason, if you know that you came here to redeem karma correctly, which only helps by doing good things, etc.
Therefore just a reminder. Especially for you this about what our task and objective is. We, the spiritual people (shamans, healers, mediums, teachers, etc.) have a worldly protective task, namely this:
Protecting the weak. To heal the sick (which is in our ability). Relieve the pain of others and not make it worse.
Teaching people independence and how to do it. To restore and activate people's self-healing ability.
To give the life of your fellow man a positive twist, direction and feeling. People in their personal lives who give back their shine by sharing our knowledge and wisdom and setting good examples.
Let people follow their own hearts, to open them again. To give these people the feeling that they are in control and not a prisoner of their own life, so they can feel free again.
We, the spiritual workers of all forms, are here on Earth to support and edify others. And that in all forms. But we are also here to protect Mother Earth. Against pollution, exploitation and destruction. Because we are the World, and therefore we must protect our flora and fauna. And this is only possible if you live from the truth, through and from your heart and not from ego. If not, then it makes no sense, whatever you want to do. Unfortunately. Its just a wasted effort. This is one of the universal laws. The world is now confronted with this universal law. Like it or not. Therefore adjust this what follows within yourself;
Adjust your Attitude towards life, intention, ego, stop wanting to keep control, stop believing in something that you know is not true. Stop Abuse of power.
Transformation: You do this for something that is really necessary. And that's not your personal selfishness. Its us. Mankind. So I ask you: Where is your "we are one" feeling?
What have you chosen? Which path do you want to walk? The choice you make now .... ensures whether you will lose things or whether you will be successful in the future.
Good evening.
There is no-one on this earth who does anything. The whole universe is a puppet show. We’re dancing the dance of Shiva. We think we’re something important. But we’re really nothing as we appear. Your job is to observe, to watch, to see what’s going on and not to react to anything that is happening but to stay separate from the happenings. To separate yourself from what is happening. What’s happening is happening to the ‘I’, to the ego, not to you. Nothing can ever happen to you. For your true nature is Brahman, absolute reality, pure awareness. This is what you really are whether you like it or not. Yes you are God whether you like it or not. Whether you care or you don’t, you are God. So what are you going to do about it. All you really have to do is to know who you are, to know yourself. Not intellectually, not physically, but consciously. When you see yourself consciously as God you will see the whole universe as your Self. Everything in this whole universe will become you. There will be no separation between you and your fellow man, the animals and the minerals and the flowers. It will all be one. They’ll be you. You are that!

PSA: Cellulite and stretch marks are normal. The only reason we’ve been told that they’re not is because companies want to sell you products to reduce, minimize, or eliminate these very natural body characteristics. Your body is not a photoshop picture. Stop beating yourself up for being human.
