Hi Could you explain why anything is possible?
Because no limit is verifiable. Any limit would just be another position, perception, or ideaâall of which are being/nothing already. Being is never anything specific, itâs just what isâŠ
And itâs not that everything is possible/limitlessness is verified by an âindividual mind,â itâs just what remains, always. Whereas limits and frameworks need an individual mind to be verified. But there is no actual solid individual mind or limits when you look. So what remains is âthe infiniteâ or openness
Do you see the difference?
Both are ideas at the end of the day, but one remains implicitly and clearly
Nothinginform
Don't you see?
so I permashiftedâŠ
To preface this is just my experience and the understanding I have of consciousness and shifting based on what I have personally experienced. If something does not resonate with you then donât do it. Only follow advice that works for you. Whenever my last post was, I decided that I wanted to permashift. I felt like I had said everything that I wanted to and I was at a good place. So I did my routine to permashift. Methods really arenât needed for shifting but I like doing them I find it fun. âŹïž
1. I listened to my favorite playlists and thought about all the places I was going to shift to. My family, my friends, my favorite place, memories and things. While I did this I tidied up around me so I could feel clean and at peace. Because I just canât focus in a mess it makes me feel dirty and ashamed. But thatâs just me.
2. So after that I drank some water, took a shower and washed my face. Then I looked over my script and watched scenes from my favorite shows.
3. Then I laid down on my floor and listened to my playlist for permashifting. I got comfortable and I kind of envisioned in transferring my consciousness into my other self. I donât look that different but it was more about just assuming it completely. I kind of visualized that a wormhole thread connected to both of my selves was importing my consciousness to my desired one. I started seeing memories like I scripted and kept feeling I was spinning. Then I just started hearing sounds and shifted there.
After I did that I woke up like usual right where I left off in my third dr. I didnât even remember this reality anymore and I was completely there. I continued living that life and two others after that. So I feel like itâs been a long long long time for me even though itâs been a couple of days here. It didnât feel any different than when I shift normally but even terrible stuff that happened didnât make me shift back out of fear. Like sometimes when Iâm in danger in my dr, I shift back out of fear. That didnât happen. After I died in my third life, I woke up in my waiting room. I wasnât scripting or anything just taking a break. In all my drs I scripted in a black cat thatâs kind of like the Coraline cat where he only talks in my waiting room and canât in heaven or my other lives. I call him Ryuk but heâs just such an interesting individual to know. I didnât really scripted much else then he was like the Coraline cat but heâs definitely not the same cat.
His explanation for why he can talk is that he is a consciousness and likes to have different lives and experiences. I do think that there are very likely other species that have consciousness like us and can shift as well. Because why not there are so many galaxies. Why would be the only ones who are sentient? Is he one? I donât know but I find him good company anyways. So I was in the jungle at a treehouse on a property I was staying out and was rinsing off after I swam in the waterfall. He was just sitting on a nearby tree branch. The shower is kind of built into the tree if thatâs hard to visualize. Itâs made out of bamboo and placed onto branches. If that makes sense. In my waiting room, I do have the memory of all the lives I lived but not really that I shifted there unless I was prompted to. So me and him were just talking over lives we experienced and he suddenly mentioned this reality. And how long ago it all was. I kind of blanked because I had completely forgotten all about it. Itâs kind of like thinking about your earliest memories l from kindergarten or something and itâs just foggy. You remember it but itâs very distant. And then he asked me, âWhy donât you want to be here? I thought all of this made you happy?â And I was kind of confused because who wanted to be here. So I didnât say anything. He continued on and asked me in a roundabout way, why I missed somewhere you were miserable and alone. And I told him how I felt guilty about not being grateful for everything my mom strived to give me and that I felt awful for leaving her behind. Then he told me she didnât need me and I didnât matter. I was really hurt by that because what do you mean Iâm useless!!! But then it set in on me what he was trying to say. Just because I am not experiencing it doesnât mean Iâm not there. And I am not leaving them alone.
That strangely made me feel so lot better. And he asked me why I wanted to shift to these realities in the first place. I told him it just felt like home and I was happier than I had ever been. And I thought about all the stuff that happened to me in my original reality and that I was glad that everything happened the way it did. I was glad that it all led to me shifting to have a better life. Because if I hadnât been denied going to school, having no friends and being forced to spend almost every day in the house which resulted in ruined social skills I wouldnât have wanted this. And it also helped me relieve that feeling of selfishness by my parents that told me it was wrong to live my own life. It wasnât really about feeling grateful about what happened to me. It was more of me letting go my emotional connection to this reality that made me so hesitant to permashift. And it was something I needed to do. So I decided that I would shift to a reality like my original reality to formally let go of it. So now I shifted to this reality Iâm in right now which is exactly like the one I was in before. To clear things up. You do not need to be grateful for your original reality to shift or manifest or do anything. Everything I just talked about was part of my journey to shift. Your journey will likely not look like mine.
So Iâm honestly just going to take maybe three or four days clean stuff up around here. Make peace with leaving people I know albeit thatâs not very many. But just making things more comfortable for me to permanently detach from this reality for good this time. If you have anything you want to ask me, a post I want to make put it in my inbox or messages before the 1st. Iâll answer it right away or put it in a queue. After I permashift, I likely wonât post anymore but probably will respond to comments. I notice when I shift I still use tumblr and sometimes respond but not post: I donât know why â Happy shifting!
I guess I will never stop falling in love with the mysteries nothingness holds... when we say there are unlimited experiences, we meant it. Beautiful, malleable nothingness!
Hear me out Hear me out, I'm understanding So basically I'm rich now by claiming that I'm cancelling the possibility of being broke.
So by claiming I've cleared the illusionary exam already I'm cancelling out the possibility of failure.
Am I understanding it right love?
"I'm rich now by claiming that I'm cancelling the possibility of being broke"
What you experience, is what you effortlessly DECIDE.
" " appears as whatever " " decides. No efforts involved.
There is no one to cancel the possibility of being broke. There is no possibility of being broke, likewise there is no possibility of being rich.
It is all " " seemingly appearing in " ".
Empty appearances.
" " is not rich. " " is not poor. " " do not succeed, and it does not fail.
It just IS. It doesn't need to be anything, it is BEING itself.
Look beyond the labels, and concepts, and words. Notice your effortless BEING. Everything I said here is just a pointer, look where it's pointing to and drop it.
You are EVERYTHING. You are NOTHING.
You ARE.
" ".
â â
This will be my longest post (sorry in advance for this meaningless essay), but my final post. All I ask, is for you to sincerely read this open-mindedly and truly listen to what Iâm saying and see what I am pointing to.
Think of these seeming experiences/occurrences:
Waking, sleeping, dreaming, imagining.
I know I have mentioned this many times but letâs once again talk about what they have in common:
They all have the same substance which is no substance, no tangibility, they are empty. Yet they all have the same âsourceâ being âTHATâ. Without giving label and meaning to âdreamingâ or any of those other seeming phenomenon, all there is is this Awareness / Knowingness.
See it (what I have been pointing to since starting this page) directly, donât take my words for âtruthâ without Knowing directly yourselfâŠ
Without labels and concepts, what am I left with?
What is aware of being aware?
See without labelling. Without labelling what is happening?
If I remove all use of language, what is?
âITâ is the only thing that always IS considering those occurrences above are nothing but discontinuous appearances, âTHATâ is the only âcontinuityâ.
âThere must be something continuous to register discontinuityâ - nisargadatta
âTHATâ is experiencing itself âTHATâ. It is the only constant in anything that you claim to have experienced. Yet there is actually no experience or happening, as at their âsourceâ there is only âTHATâ / Silence / Nothingness.
You just give xyz experience meaning and label. But it is all just an empty appearance. And what is an âexperienceâ? Isnât âeverythingâ an experience⊠your dream from last night, you reading this now and when imagining something? Theyâre all One and the Same - equally illusionary / dreamlike / empty. âTHATâ is the only thing you are always âleft withâ, that always IS. Youâre the only one who labels things as âdifferentâ or âseparateâ đ€·ââïž They never were.
P.S. âContinuousâ and âconstantâ not in the sense there is something continually existing or occurring over a period of time because â â just is, without beginning or end, there is nothing to continue from anything, its just a word for the sake of this post đ
All depends on YOU, but YOU depend on nothing:
1) Because you are One with All that there seems to be, it is all YOU / nothingness (nameless and formless) appearing as âsomethingâ (with a seeming name and form).
2) Because there is nothing actually there to depend on.
3) Because YOU exist unconditionally and eternally, you just ARE, a âpresenceâ with no beginning or end. Just wow, Your ineffable being truly cannot be grasped nor explained in words.
When you turn clay into a pot, you can call it a pot but it is still always clay. The clay can be without a pot, but the pot cannot be without clay.
You can call a wave a wave, but it is always the ocean. The ocean can be without waves, but the wave cannot be without the ocean.
So, we know there is no separation or duality. There never was one.
Everything is instant, you are limitless:
Lift your arm up for me now. Did it involve strenuous effort? Did it take a long time to do so? Or do you just Know you can just lift your hand and decide to do so?
It is the same for all seeming experiences. Just an instant Knowing. And you Know that as âTHATâ, you are limitless and formless (hence this play you have divulged yourself in so much you thought it to be tangibly real).
Since you KNOW yourself to be limitless and infinite (so much so that any word to describe YOU would be limiting YOU) and there being no separation or duality since it is all âTHAT/YOUâ, all equally empty and seeming, thenâŠ. thatâs it. You are ALWAYS experiencing yourself Now, no effort and no delay.
You are infinite, who tells you what is or isnât possible? Everything is natural and effortless because it is all â â, all YOU and â â is all that there is. Every (seeming) âexperienceâ is always â â Now !!
There is nothing to make âappearâ because there is nothing that is âdisappearingâ or âappearingâ; there is nothing to âchangeâ or âtransformâ because there was never anything actually there to âchangeâ or âtransformâ. âEverythingâ just IS Now because it is always just all YOU / âTHATâ.
This is NOT a method for âdesiresâ. If you take it as such then âŠ. Good luck. This is literally what you ARE, everything is YOU. How do you KNOW you exist? These are just empty words pointing to your true being, simply see where they are pointing !!
And by Now â> âNow is not a moment in time, sandwiched between two vast spaces of the past and future. This present Now is the only Now there is - the eternal Now. It has not come from anywhere and is not going anywhere.â - Rupert Spira
â â is all that there is.
That is the âconclusionâ you will always arrive at. But of course there is actually no conclusion and no human to reach anything.
This is just a subtle noticing / remembrance (no aha moment or magical revelation) of that which always IS. That which you always have been, always are. but fooled yourself into thinking otherwise⊠only to realise that nothing had ever happened.
âYouâ have read and consumed enough, you have suffered enough, you have overthought and over-complicated enough, you have tried enough, you have victimised yourself enough. See âTHATâ which always is, Now. Go beyond concepts and labels. No one can or will âdo itâ for you, for there are no others. There is no one to decide but You⊠You are all that there is. You choose, you decide.
Much love đ€

reader:
I wish to ride on a flower, but the flower that I could ride on cannot arise. Why is that?
The car sped towards me, and I turned my head away, but it didn't stop as Master Yangming had predicted; it still knocked me down solidly. Why?
exist:
Regarding the first sentence above, thoughts and their objects arise and cease simultaneously, mutually corresponding. When the feeling of "I" arises, the feeling of "the world and the universe" arises synchronously, instantly. This is the wonder of consciousness. If you desire something, then the situation of being desired will occur. Jesus also said something similar: "Knock on the door and it will be opened." If you fear something, then ironically, the situation you fear is more likely to occur. The entire story of experience is a whole, a narrative disguised as an infinite whole without a story in essence. That which transcends logic will give rise to rational energy, seemingly creating a seamless logical cause-and-effect relationship. Who is it for to digest and enjoy? It is for reason itself to digest and enjoy. It is not an exaggeration to use idioms like "reaping what you sow" or "self-justification" to describe it. This is why the ancients said, "Do not be ignorant of cause and effect, nor fall into cause and effect." This is what they mean by understanding that you do not need to deny or reject cause and effect in your daily life, but at the same time understand that cause and effect is merely an illusion presented in experience, and should not be taken seriously.
For example, if you desire to get rich, you will most likely not. This aligns with the cause-and-effect relationship in experiential stories. The "cause" in these stories could be any of the following: you don't work hard enough, your social status isn't high enough, your opportunities aren't good enough, or even your luck isn't good enough. These are all superficial causes that lead to superficial effectsâyou don't get rich. Perhaps in a certain situation, a certain "cause" appears, making you rich. For example, you happen to encounter the reform and opening up, and real estate prices skyrocket, making you rich from every investment. Does this prove that "cause and effect" truly exists? No! These are all illusory "rationalities" presented in experience. Thoughts and experiences are actually synonyms; they are not two different "things," but the same. When a thought is initiated, the experience is initiated simultaneously. The function of rational thought is to create illusory "logical rationality"âthis is "causality." If at some point you discover that this "logical rationality" (causality) is completely absurd, then the foundation of the thought collapses, and the thought "dies." The death of thought is equivalent to the death of the illusion of a separate "self."
Regarding the second sentence of your question, why, in experience, if a car comes rushing towards you and you don't see it, will you be hit? This is the "logical rationality" (causal relationship) of apparent experience. The "car" is a story, "I" am also a story, "hitting" is a story, and "not seeing" is also a story. Experiential stories are all illusions, just like the dream story from last night is an illusion. Since it's within a "story," its plot is naturally reasonable, because the basic function of thought is to create apparent "rationality."
However, the whole story did not actually happen, even though in the story it seemed that the "body" was "hit".
Perhaps, based on experience, "I" glanced at the car and dodged it, which is also "rational".
From the perspective of the infinite whole (THAT), the entire experience is like a dream; it seems to have happened, but in reality, it didn't. If we follow the first scenario, the "you" in the experience didn't see it and was hit and killed. From the perspective of the infinite whole, nothing truly happened; it's like one dream ending and the next beginning. The "you" in the dream vanishes, neither adding nor subtracting anything; the experience manifests in other forms. In other words, the "you" or "I" in the experience doesn't exist; "I," "you," and "he" are merely manifestations of experience. From beginning to end, it is the infinite whole, singular and unaffected by experience.
Experience itself doesn't actually have any "story"; experience is a synonym for thought, and it is thought that interprets the "story." As Brother Shideng said, experience is "unsettled," but thought interprets it as "settling down," creating something from nothing.
The concept of "self" exists in a state of fear. This fear stems from the feeling that "I" am a separate individual. "I" fear danger because I perceive the external world as separate from myself and threatening. I also fear death because once I define myself as a separate individual, I instinctively strive to ensure the survival of this separate "self," working towards its own benefit. This benefit encompasses "accumulating wealth," "consolidating and improving social status," and even "entering heaven," "achieving enlightenment," and "becoming a Buddha." While the latter three pursuits may seem noble, they are essentially about acquiring benefits for the separate individual "self," and are fundamentally the same personal interests as "consolidating and improving social status, getting promoted and making money," only disguised with a religious veneer.
True understanding comes from discovering that the logical cause and effect in all experiential stories are illusory, including seeing that "my spiritual practice," "my enlightenment," and so on are all pursuits based on maintaining "my" interests. When you understand that every rationality (causal relationship) in experience is just a story, you will no longer be bound by the rationality or causal relationships of experience. You don't need to detach yourself from experience, but at the same time, you are not bound by these illusory storylines (i.e., causal relationships).
When you truly understand, you won't reject experience; you'll simply stop taking it too seriously. In other words, you can let the story unfold without worrying about the outcome. Success in experience? No problem! Failure in experience? No problem! "Neither good nor bad" in experience? No problem! You can fully participate in the story, but at the same time, you won't be bothered by any plot development. "Getting hit by a car?" What's there to be afraid of! If the story requires such an event to occur, it's not "my" choice, but the will of that. Even if "I" see the car coming and dodge it, it's not "my" choice, but the will of the infinite whole.
Would I worry that the plane I'm on will crash? No. Would I worry that a car will come hurtling towards me and kill me? No, because there is no "me" to protect; everything is the work of an infinite wholeâthis is infinite trust. Perhaps it is precisely because I trust myself that experience spontaneously and automatically manifests peace? I don't know, nor do I care about the "peace" or "fluctuation" presented by experience; I only understand that everything is synchronized, without any real causal relationship.
Conversely, if you fear a certain outcome and believe it, becoming entangled in its logic, then the experience you experience might actually manifest as a "fear" because of your taking it so seriously. For example, someone who is constantly afraid of getting sick is more likely to get sick. Someone who is constantly on edge is more likely to encounter "danger." Don't forget, the "world" is a reaction to thoughts; it's completely synchronized (SYNCHRONIZED DISPLAY). Thoughts instantly create the complex narratives of their own thoughts. Of course, I'm not suggesting you avoid the hospital when you're sick, nor am I suggesting you become a "hero" when you encounter danger, shouting "I'm not afraid of you!" or avoiding things according to apparent logic for the sake of convenience. While operating according to apparent logic, I'm suggesting you let go of your anxieties and trust that everything is OK, or not OK, it's also OK. You're not deliberately avoiding anything; everything is you, everything is that you, so how could anything be not OK? Is "avoidance" wrong? Is "not avoiding" wrong? When you understand that everything is an infinite whole, the concepts of "wrong" and "right" dissolve, the illusion of "I" dissolves simultaneously, and infinite trust manifests in an instant. No effort is needed, just this one microsecond of "understanding".
If you want to delve deeper, does the infinite whole (THAT) truly have a will or not? I suggest you ask yourself: what was your motivation for having those dreams last night?

There are no other realities, universes, worlds; you are not limited by what you can imagine. Even if you cannot imagine it, everything is possible.
Please be careful to deeply understand my words before forming an opinion⊠using the same logic as you have used where you said there are no other realities etcetera then we must regard every determinable seeming thing with the same unreality, that is we should also always say there is no me , you , internet, earth and so on . Of course it is known these things do not have solid substantial existence, however as everything freely appears so also do these seeming phenomena appear as well.
So yes my friend, definitely so ,other realities may seemingly appearâof course! But my followers, readers and those conversant with non duality know that it goes without saying , these things do not have an independent existence
Second of all, when I said âif you can imagine it, it is possibleâ I am not talking of the mere definition of imagination as in visualization, I am referring to imagination in relation to non duality which is anything that is made known due to the presence of it being within the field of Awareness.
Awareness/Self is the foundation of seeming reality, everything which is and possible is made so because there is awareness of it which therefore means that whatever you can possibly know of (other apparent realities or worlds whatever) exist in the same unreal yet present way everything else within Awareness exists and that is everything.
I want to ask about the "shifting" phenomenon. I understand that, according to non-duality, "transferring awareness to another reality" is impossible, because Awareness itself is one. It is everything; there are no different realities. However, can I simply be aware of thoughts not of this brain, but of other?Other spaces? Is it possible to not be aware of a particular body at all, since Awareness is not attached to it? That is, it is clear that Awareness itself does not changeâit already is everything. Dreams, imagination, and waking lifeâall this is Awareness. I am talking rather about the "focus" of this awareness. After all, I am not aware of the ocean, for example, but I am aware of the city. Does this happen because of identification with the body?
Iâll be honest I donât quite understand what exactly youâre asking here
But I know that asking is it possible to be aware of xyz is a contradictory statement because if you werenât aware of xyz then you wouldnât know of xyz. This is another thing about ND I find hilarious, asking about possibility is just limiting the limitless
It is like asking can there be Awareness of an object not knowing in that exact instance, there IS awareness of an object
Notice đïž
What if you donât have to explain why things havenât appeared to âmanifestâ yet? What if you donât need to continue to identify with posts that say âthe reason you havenât manifested your desires, shifted, entered the void is because of xyz?â
What if there is no reason to hide behind for the supposed silence. No ego, No âresistanceâ, nothing? What if you donât have to keep explaining away the silence. What is left then? Awareness. Awareness is all that is left behind.
My love, you donât need to explain why itâs supposedly taken âtimeâ for desires. You donât need to justify reality. The mind loves to narrate stories and give meaning. But truly there is no meaning. Reality and awareness truly is unexplainable. So instead of trying to explain the unexplainable and use logic and reason. Why not instead just see the silence as nothing more than a blip? A passing moment in awareness. This doesnât mean you want more of the silence, this doesnât mean more silence will âmanifest.â but itâs just realising that you donât need to give meaning to it.
All we have is the now moment anyways. So why not choose who you are now and allow that to be known? Let whatever happened be there. It truly doesnât matter as much as it seems.
There is âno resistanceâ you need to release, or âego you need to dissolveâ because they are truly nothing more than appearances within awareness. Yes. Even the ego. Labels can help at first. Of course. We are awareness experiencing a human world right now, labels and distinctions can be very useful at times. But truly itâs about recognising that the end of the day, these labels of âdoubtsâ âegoâ âresistanceâ, are all simply forms. Not absolute truths. You donât need to label every thought, every experience, every feeling. At least not in a rigid way. Because all there are, are appearances. If labels do still show up, you can let them pass and not latch onto them.
Now realising this may not make the âegoâ or âresistanceâ dissolve immediately. It can happen that way of course but for a lot of people, there may be those emotions and feelings and thoughts that creep back and thatâs normal. But eventually, when you stop labelling and assigning meaning to things. All of those things dissolve naturally on their own inevitably. And you come to the truth that there was no ego or resistance to get rid of to begin with. Because they were all just awareness with different filters.
This may feel uncomfortable, this may feel raw, it may feel like you have nothing to hide behind, no excuses to make for reality. But I can assure you, you will inevitably come to the truth that you were never stuck. You were always free. Itâs not about taking more actions, or avoiding anything.
Itâs about relaxing and knowing that no matter what, you are always okay. You are always enough as you are without the labels, the stories and the narratives.
I would like to share a quote from my higher self today.
âA butterfly comes out of the cocoon. She may not spread her wings and fly straight away. It may appear to take time because she is afraid to fly. But once she lets herself be scared, she realises, the fear never existed in the first place. She then says goodbye to the âfearâ and spread her wings and fly.â
I (Awareness)Â AM (Exist)
I think, therefore I am not my thoughts. I am when I think and I am when I donât think. It only âappearsâ that I am the âthinkerâ behind my thoughts but in reality, thoughts just appear in the space of awareness. Most of my thoughts are already set in motion by the time I become aware of them. I donât create the algorithm of thoughts, I simply notice them and my mind so convincingly steps in afterward to claim ownership. I am aware (the observer) even when the thinking mind falls utterly silent.Â
My thoughts cannot be aware; only awareness can be aware. I do not take any form or thought to be my own, I am just the changeless, unperturbed witness of them. I do not even have to master my mind, I just have to observe, donât resist and break the loop of believing that I am my thoughts. There is clarity, stillness and freedom knowing that I am the space that exists before, between and after all passing thoughts/experiences. I am the all-knowing field of awareness in which all thoughts, emotions and sense perceptions come and go.

This might sound stupid but, how does realizing that weâre awareness, equal to everything around us, including ourselves being fake and not existing on its own? I understand that itâs, âYes, Iâm aware and thatâs why I even know of anything.â but why canât it just be, âawareness comes from within my body and they work together to let me experience life like everyone else and one day itâll all end and thatâs all there is to itâ? Yes, I know that if I wasnât aware, nothing would exist to me, but does that really mean that life doesnât go on without us and that we really just created the entire world we were living in? How can you really prove that with no hard evidence and by just choosing to disprove everyoneâs existence but your own? Can we really, truly know that other peopleâs lives are nothing without having ever truly been in their shoes? Sorry for the long ask but I hope this made sense :)
Your entire question is based on the premise of there being an individual entity or a person, an "I". But the realisation that's being talked about here is not personal to some'one' because no one exists. It's not that we disprove everyone else's existence, but that we point to the unsubstantiality of it all. It's not my experience vs other's, it's the same seamless appearance. It arises and dissolves within the same " ", which simply is, and is not personal to anyone.
And regarding the point of awareness coming from the body, the best example is that of dreaming.
Ask yourself this:
When you're dreaming, do you see with your eyes or is it simply the awareness of the seeing/scenery?
When you're dreaming, do you hear with your ears or is it simply the awareness of sound/hearing?
When you're dreaming, do you sense using your body or is it simply the awareness of touch/sensations?
You can clearly experience without your body, but can you do so without being aware? What does that tell you?
And before you say that it's because dreams aren't 'real' and it's all happening in a place called 'mind', how do you know what's what without your thoughts telling you? What is there before any ideas/labels of it?
The answers are right THERE. See for yourself.
Your seeking is what's cleverly hiding the TRUTH that already IS, while being the TRUTH itself since nothing is separate from it. Stop and notice, THIS is IT.
Hidden in plain sight.
why do you say manifestation is not possible in non duality. ive seen another blogger here say its just a reshaping of the dream to fit what we decide and if you agree it is a dream why cant we manifest. i think youre creating limiting beliefs and making non duality not fun , no offense
Sorry this ask made me giggle, I can tell youâre sweet but just a little confused with all the non dualism content youâre reading on here
Iâll clear it up for you, now I never said manifestation wasnât possible; there is no such thing as impossible, there is no such thing as anything. Manifestation as well impossibility (or possibility) are not substantial phenomenons. They do not have credited existence, and they are defined or described by mind. They are made up
As is everything else, everything seemingly apart from Awareness, anything that can be pointed out and logically conceptualized or explained is unreliable, baseless and untrue
Remember everything is an idea, everything is a narrative. Narratives and ideas come from nowhere; they just appear. No you are not thinking or synthesizing ideas or narratives because âyouâ are equally an idea and cannot directly influence an outcome. Now Iâm not saying that narrative cannot seemingly appearâIâm saying in itâs appearance lies no truth and no relation to anything
It just appears. Like a bubble in a drink, like clouds in the sky. Just there and unrelated
Manifestation is a concept that implies that there is a person here who has the power to influence their real environment to produce what is desired. In non duality none of these things exist; not the existence of a person, not the existence of power to influence, not the existence of a real environment or world, not the existence of desire
I didnât say those things cannot appear. Let me repeat myself I DID NOT SAY THOSE THINGS CANNOT APPEAR
However it is paramount, if one is truly on the non dual path; the path that exposes the insubstantiality of perceived reality, that these things are absolutely and wholeheartedly seen and understood as false. Donât adopt it as a belief, know it. Donât say the words, know it.
It can only be known when one rests as Awareness and ceases interest (for now) in the transient and untrue world.
Nothing good or freeing comes from being swayed by ideas. The idea of manifestation is free to appear however if you see it as an actual absolute concept with credited existence then you are bound by illusion. You are a slave to something made up.
The very fact that you can know of stories whether it be a story of want, a story of abundance, a story of mastering manifestation, a story of being so unlucky and unhappy, a story of you ,then You(Self) are Infinitely beyond it. You were never even apart of of it
It is hilarious and so truly freeing once You come to see that You never had to escape anything because You were never bound by it. You are the knower of it allâYou are even beyond the words used to describe YourSelf.
and by all means my loves, when You truly know Your beyondness, Your infinity, Your indescribable and inconceivable Self. You wouldnât even ask me how to do anything. It will just be done
Ps: you= the untrue and unreal self
You= the infinite Self
Be done with Desire and taste Abundance
Most of the content on this side of tumblr is tailored to the acquisition or fulfillment of our so called deepest desires. However, there is something so truly liberating when you come to see that desires in themselves are not something to solve, fix or âacquireâ. When you stop seeing desires as actual declarations of lack and wanting, a natural weight is lifted off your aching shoulders.
I know how long and how hard itâs been for you, for most of us it was a never-ending cycle of hope and despair and dread and joy. And the only root of this suffering is and forever has been the insatiable nature of desire. We think we do not have so we desperately want but itâs a losing game because as long as we take these narratives of lack to be true then we remain stuck in lack.
The mind tells us a hundred and one stories of this and that at an instance and sadly due to forgetting itâs all harmless fun, we have somehow begun to actually believe these narratives are real and actual impossible scenarios to escape.
Thinking back on my âmanifestationâ days , I canât help but laugh! I laugh because I did it to myself, made myself miserable, believed made up stories and searched heaven and beyond for solutions when all this time; it was coming from me.
Non duality/ Advaita Vedanta has taught me so much but most of all itâs taught me that thereâs nothing to learn, nothing to actualize because in this moment everything is perfect, Self is perfect.
The only opposition are the thoughts that creep in âyou do not haveâ, âlook at them, theyâre betterâ, âcan you even imagine you having âxyzâ or âabcââ, or the effects of the mind that affirm these thoughts but then I know it is not so, because I cannot prove the truth of these narratives, of the dream.
Nothing feels as truly liberating and satisfying as knowing there is absolutely nothing to do because nothing is here to actualize or change.
Do you know what this means?It means the world is my plaything (lol) it means problems were never here in the first place, it means all those appearances that say otherwise have never and will never be true; so to try and acquire or achieve something is quite literally a waste of time !! What are you fixing? Why are you trying to get? When nothing says you do not have?
This is the abundanceâour birthright , our nature, the way our natural Being thrives.
In nothing but fulfillment of all.
âmistaking its nature IS its natureâ
infinite subtlety, infinite befuddlingđ
