Meditational Musings

 All love is self-love. All hate is self-hate. Everything is all part of the same whole. Personal perspective is an individual facet of the whole, not separate from it. 'We are the universe experiencing itself'. That means every individual perspective you encounter - person, animal, or otherwise - is a facet of you. Defiance and defense is a departure from the knowledge of all are one. ----- (expanding on the previous concept) All ways we treat 'others' (speaking from an individual perspective point of view) are how we treat ourself.

 Live in the reality you want to live in. This is a moment by moment thing. this is also how Neville Goddard's technique works. the idea is to live in the end state of it. In other words, moment to moment, live in that state of being. that feeling-state of how it feels in your body. What does the emotion of living in that state of being feel like in your body? Get past the idea of feeling the excitement of it. Get to a point of imaging what it feels like to have had it for a bit. Sort of like that time you got a new toy (a laptop, phone, car, computer, hobby or craft item, etc) and the novelty of it has sort of worn off a little. You still really like and enjoy it, but it's not that same 'brand new exciting' feeling. Daydream for a while about having that desire fulfilled, feel how having it - not getting it, but having it - feels in the body, then live in that reality as best as possible. The physical senses are sorta slow to catch up to internal being, since the exter...

 "God is pure love." The more we judge something unwanted, the more it shows up to us.  God is everything. We have free will. We are god (not -a- god so much as made of the same stuff that makes up everything else, thus making our bodies a part of that same universal field of energy that can also be called god when going with the idea that god is everything.) What if 'god', the creator, isn't everything so much as the consciousness that inhabits everything. That feels a lot more accurate to me, personally. Everything has a consciousness. Everything in nature as well as everything created by human hands or machines. Why? Because everything is made from the same fundamental process - the condensing of energy. 'Solid' objects are just dense energy, as determined by physics. So, if everything is energy, and god is the consciousness that inhabits said energy, we are also god in the sense that the consciousness that we think we are is still a facet of that same ...

 'When the heart thinks, and the mind feels, the river of wisdom will flow.' -original source unknown | I heard it from polymath Robert Edward Grant a few times and it's been tugging about my mind ever since. I remember one of my teachers talking about how she and some of her friends were practicing with feeling their heart-space expand or contract based on what they were thinking about. I believe she said they were practicing it based on what options they had in front of them, as in 'do this, expand or contract? do this? feel for expand or contract'. That sort of thing. Perhaps that is what is being spoken about in the quote. The sensation of the expansion or contraction within the chest would be the heart 'thinking' - offering its version of thoughts on the given option.  The mind would then be the one 'feeling' the sensation of it, in how it perceives the information being offered by the heart. This sounds to me like how inspiration has been descr...

 what if life is about transmuting the energy translated as pain into desired frequencies? what if this is done by accepting what is - allowing what is to BE what it is, without judgement - and deliberately placing your focus on how you prefer things to be until it is so clear in your mind that physical matter has no choice but to reform itself to your whim. energy is malleable in the face of a clearly focused frequency. this concept has infinitely adaptable potential. note: 'without judgement' does not mean 'without preference'. preference will always exist. preference does not require judgement or label. one can notice what is not preferred and, in the absence of judgement/emotional attachment, transmute it into what is preferred because, again, energy is malleable in the face of clearly focused frequency. how fast we're able to do this is a result of how well we're able to focus. (I've been informed. Still working to 'know' this within this body c...

 it's allowed to all be perfect exactly as it is.  if it's all perfect, then i can feel satisfied and then i'm allowed to focus on what is preferred. i'm allowed to leave the past because it happened as it needed to happen. i'm allowed to let the future be what it needs to be. what happens may or may not be what is preferred, but it's all allowed to be exactly as it is.  i am allowed to be exactly as i am.  - meditation 'i am that i am' it's allowed to be perfect, and i'm allowed to focus on what i prefer.

 I think there's a misunderstanding between 'following your desires/bliss' regardless of what anyone else thinks, and caring what your partner's wants are and having them matter to you. It's the word between. They're not linked. Your internal desires and what you choose to feel inside don't have to have anything to do with what they want. What if you never actually have to compromise, in the sense of giving up on what you want in order to let them have theirs? What if the compromise, in that case, is letting go of the attachment of what that desired internal sensation looks like on the outside? From there it's just a matter of how much does the idea of what they want turn you off? So to speak. Be soft in what you want. Panic and fear do not end the dance any faster - they only make you stumble so much along the way that the dance is no fun and doesn't end where you want it to. Instead, let the music fill you, move you, sway you, and show you the perf...
