I DID IT!! I DID IT!!! YAAAAAYYYY ⁺ ⊹ .ೃ࿐ 𖥔
OKAY OKAY, so like. First of all, THANK YOU ?! I literally had such a mixed knowledge of the void state that I just assumed it was also as tiresome to enter as shifting(back then at least a few years ago).
When I saw your page and how you defined it, it was a RELIEF because 1) it simplifies it so good 2) it also simplified my view on shifting in general.
So here’s how it started:
Listen.. I didn’t enter it not once, not twice but THREE TIMES IN THE SPAN OF LIKE 1-2 HOURS, I’m not even joking. First time I did it, I was so excited that I did at least butcher it midway through. Then came the second try and I got into it a little quicker than the first time. For the third time I did enter, it was literally effortless. I did not even need to complicate it. I didn’t have a timer on me but I did notice how quicker I got into it with each try.
Now,
╰ . 𖥔 ݁ ˖ How I entered the void state.
So I laid down, right after reading all your asks and posts on the void. What I needed to understand is that basically I’m awareness, I’m not holding a flashlight in the darkness and aiming it around. I AM the flashlight. What do I mean by this?
I laid down, and I didn’t think of anything at first. Then I went: “if I’m awareness/I AM. Then right now, to realize it, I can notice or be aware of something.” So I immediately got aware of the sound of AC in my room, to even make it easier for myself to realize “I AM”, I then went “if I AM, I can even be aware of the separate sounds the AC make.” You know how you’re listening to a song and you focus on different harmonies? It’s basically the I AM being aware, it’s YOU the flashlight, shining light on what you become aware of.
Doing this, I practiced basically being aware(or realizing that I’m awareness, because it strips away identity and focuses more on the act “of being aware.”)
Once i feel confident, i then drop everything. I just BE that awareness that noticed the AC and all its sounds. I just settle in that state, it’s hard to describe? But it feels like watching everything without engaging. It’s watching the game, not playing the game. Thoughts arise, you don’t interact, just watch. And it just hit me like a train the first time, a rush of nothingness. That feeling when you zone out and there’s no thoughts, just the feeling of existence and it feels so satisfying you don’t want to move your eyes to not disturb that state. Basically felt close to that. I got really excited and I ended up rushing it in worry, and I got out of the state. But I didn’t give up from here, I went a second time, then a third time and better result each time. I didn’t think of manifesting or assuming after the first try because for now I focused more on sensation, and also because my knowledge on manifesting from the void is limited.
I want to thank you so much for your hard work, if it weren’t for your amazing and in detail explanations. I couldn’t even imagine myself reaching that state, on the second and third try, I loved the void state and the feeling of it SO MUCH that I legit didn’t even want to manifest from it, just experience it.
If it’s okay, I have one question to ask? It’s the only part that confuses me a little. At what part, from the transition between void state into back into identity(getting out of the void), does the assumption part happen? Is the manifestations the result of a new identity that now realizes there’s no limits after experiencing the void? Thank you!
i’m so glad you actually understood the simplicity of it and stopped treating it like a place to get into, that’s exactly why it’s been effortless for you!
as for your question, there’s no “transition moment” where you step out of the void to assume something. in non-duality, there’s no leaving it, you’ve always been it. what shifts “manifestation” is your state of being.
if you see yourself as the unlimited awareness that already is everything, then what appears in experience will naturally reflect that. it’s not really about doing an assumption after, it’s about what you are identifying as right now.
manifesting from the void is being what you already are and letting reality mirror it.
