some notes i made in my dairy:
“Belief = acceptance that something is true.
'Your question hinges on what you mean by "believing something." I take a non-standard view of belief: I think we only "truly" believe something when we act. So to "stop believing something" stop taking the actions associated with the belief, and assess the results. And trust me, depending on which thing you choose to stop believing (acting on) you will face the results.' rare quora w?"
"Leave the past alone. Leave the character alone. You can't expect trauma responses or cultural conditioning to solve EVERYTHING? It only knows life in one way, through a [age] [ethnicity] [sex] from [birth year] to 2020’s. Honestly? Theres so much conditioning combo’s you could make - this is 1/infinity."
"we're forcing roles onto ourselves & we were brought up w roles being forced onto us. that's why it's important to transcend,, or maybe not transcend but walk past them. put them down & walk away. move on. you are still whole without it. it's like feeling naked without a jacket, you are not actually naked lol you just feel it! you are totally fine!"
"Simple mindfulness is what ada is asking of us. Not convincing, denial or forcing. Its observing."
"(writing a dream earlier) then i woke up. there truly is no difference between the dream n waking state. most people are not even that grounded or feeling their body that much throughout the day unless its pained, so ofc dreams or visualisations are enough. if you're into it enough and think it's real, there's no reason why it's not. when I was in the dream i had no thought of this character."
through all the copypasted tumblr posts and vents, theres so much gold i wrote through my diary? lol
ramble.
(consciousness = Self, awareness, existance, life etc.)
all you know is that you are. all you know is that you are alive now. you are aware. you know you are not the body, feelings, emotions, beliefs, mind, thoughts. so now what? nothing.
you are just now. you know nothing else. you can make up ideas about how existance (YOU) all works, but its just ideas. you don't know whether they are real or not. all you can confirm is that you are, right now. nothing else.
all these manifestation concepts trying to explain existance/life are too obsessed with how. it all just is. it is really interesting and compelling to try and figure out "how!?" but its not You asking. its not Pure Awareness asking. awareness just is. it doesn't ask questions. its whole and complete now. its peace now. who is asking for exact details? who wants to know more?
this post isn't for your mind. its for your Self. don't analyse, jugde, overthink, intellectualise. theres no more to do. just read the words and let it be there. just have a couple of days with no trying. surrender to your Self. let yourself be. i dont mean give up.
just recognise that you don't actually know anything. you just are here now. you don't know how life (You) works or why it is. you just are living. you dont know how you got this body. or how you are in your country. or why you have to eat. or why you need to go school etc. its all nonsensical when you sit with all the useless stories and concepts in your mind.
random worrying over xyz and thinking this random idea is going to solve it. reading heavily into undertones that aren't actually there, you just deluded yourself. taking abc to be realer or more powerful than Self, when you are the life behind it.
we are all forcing roles (concepts) onto ourselves. we were brought up with roles forced onto us. i was gonna write to move on from them, as if they are real and you own them. but its more like, just recognise they never were. the roles never exsisted. you thought there was a snake among you, but it was just rope. now you see, its just a rope.
existing is quite nice, actually. we are just making it insanity.

i know i've said 'hmm maybe i should make a post about emotional regulation' but no. 4dkelly said it nicely here.
i am just a tumblr blog. i'm also learning. i am NOT YOUR MUM. i am not your doctor. i am not google.
a lot of questions, as i said in the comments of that post, are just 'is it okay if ..' or 'how do i [thing that can be solved with a bit of self compassion or paitence]' or just straight up questions that can be answered by self-care blogs.
if you're here and asking bloggers questions, it means you've done the reading right? it means you're ready right? i dont think you are. some asks straight up sound like they didn't read nothing. some asks are just asking for permission? i am a blog that you are generating in real time.. you are asking for permission from yourself through me...
some asks are just asking about things that you can just put down. you can take a step back from stuff. you can choose something different, y'know? i think some of you expect a magical answer, when really its just .. think practically for 2 seconds .. and you'll have an idea of what to do
i will do my best to make this practise complete and whole as i can, but you must do the rest!
heres some keywords to search:
mindfulness
selfcare
how to live from the heart
how to live with/in love
emotional regulation

i saw the 'how long have you been in spirituality' votes. for 0-6 months (~10%) read this.
as 4dkelly and adadisciple have said:
I understand ego is fearful and scared, but *I* cannot convince you of anything, nor do I want to "convert" you. You can do whatever you want at all times.
If you (the ego) are not willing to do that (the letting go!), then come back when you are ready. It is not up to anyone to convince you to adopt this practice and way of life.
i only have 3 in queue ... writing block lol. i want to write big posts and post them when i like, so i think this blog might finally slow down! my other blog, however, has 100 in queue so i might speed that up. anyway PICTURE DUMP
most are from ada's google drive ...
reminder that nondualism deals with the spiritual
any other parts of life you'll have to figure out. you can use the spiritual to guide you
i suggest going through lonerwolf's website for navigating a spiritual awakening
some of you might like a more embodied, holistic approach - like a how to live guide
i can't give you that since i'm just a blog! so read books! and read loner wolfs site, it's very helpful
there's also the other yogas that might be more down your lane (look to the 2 paths in nondualism post)
I wonder how ada is doing...
