Success when I stop forcing it — I’m quite experienced with the Law now and aside from a few lingering disturbances of thought, mostly tied to health, I’ve generally found myself able to shift states with no resistance. It was midn…
I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately. Healing is lonely. It’s like we’re in the “in-between”. We’re not where we were but we’re not “there” yet either. Wherever “there” is. For what’s it’s wor…
How do I feel content with my life without needing someone to surround my life with? Earlier this year I realized something about my self that I genuinely don't feel happy unless if I surrounded my …
It's ok to vent!! I don't know if you want advice but personally I just really need to have something else to throw myself into. Luckily my work is pretty demanding and fun and creative for me. I also…
Do nothing means to find stillness. Not only in the body, but in the mind too. It’s definitely a practice to have the self discipline to have this level of stillness. Especially when most people don’t…
My own precog dreams never presented me with choices, so that's a very lucky experience to have! Mine have just been still small situations. Seemingly mundane images of a location I will be in sever…

It's not proven in any way, but through my experiences and through my own hybrid approach, it would seem psychedelics force vital energy up the Chong Mai, central meridians, or Shushumna Nadi (pick yo…
It’s very tranquil and beautiful. Thank you for sharing. It pulls you in as you look at it, observe within. Detail and non-detail. It offers hidden meanings shrouded in stillness.
We can change, especially in our 30’s. I just ended a 9 year relationship and all I have is the data I need to be more masculine. I’d be open to reconnecting but I see the internal work that needs to …
No, I have not seen someone stay in that highly aware state permanently. It's inconvenient as hell, LOL! Our bodies demand our attention. If we don't give it, our bodies can go sideways in life. We'…
Honestly, more time doesn't automatically mean more powerful, it depends on what you're training for. For me, 40 minutes is the sweet spot because it gives my brain enough time to move through the re…
Do Nothing meditation has absolutely zero to do with finding stillness You did something!
Meditation is stillness and lack of chaos. It lessens the thought flow, while sharpening it at the same time. The best way to achieve this is to let everything go, and relax body, mind, and thoughts,…
Is this why when I go towards strictly stillness and silence despite the visual noise behind my eyes that that sense of stillness manifests struggle into my next coming days and so when I hone or tidy…

This last week I started doing stillness meditations and it’s really been helpful in my day to day life and helping to keep me neutral and away from negative thinking. I feel it is one of the most pow…
Yes, exactly. That awareness of “I AM” is really the foundation of all of this. Before any identity, story, past, or future, there is simply the awareness that I am. Neville talked about this often, …
I had a question in my mind about forcing outcomes and over ’not doing enough’ and then feeling bad for not doing enough or simply just trying to make things happen while anticipating them not to bec…
I feel this too. Three months out. The stillness. The quiet. All the time. My friends are strangely not wanting to be part of my life - perhaps they are worried I may be a bad influnce on their relati…
Fellow anaretic degree pisces sun, how are you feeling? My birthday is today (though my actual return isn’t until early tomorrow morning). I’ve been hoping to connect with another a very late degree P…
My take away from it is that someone with a strong ability in visualization is akin to someone going into a movie theatre and trying to meditate while watching the movie. Whereas folks without the ab…

Where is it written? It doesn't have to be written anywhere. It's inner realisation through stillness, connecting to your field and present awareness. There are many different approaches from meditati…
Yes. Longer stretches deepen the stillness. You can achieve certain insights and work things out in your life in that setting. I've done 2 month longs, a 3 and 2 week, and countless 1-2 dayers.
For me, observing thoughts…. observe and let them pass. My objective is to get to the point where no thought arrises and I can just sit in the stillness. A practice to the point where no thought a…
Yes, it is difficult to exit life and sit in the stillness. When nothing in the world distracts you, you will have peace.
These are excuses of the mind. People are so busy because they need to escape the stillness of the mind. The avoidance of inner stillness keeps you lost in thought and always seeking. This is the il…
Allow yourself to be in the stillness and quietness of no internal pressure. It really is a cause for celebration, even if it feels strange and unfamiliar. This is so huge for you! Then feel the pain …
Divorce hurt comes in waves. Let the waves come. After they come, there is a calm, a stillness, inner peace. You'll start anew. You'll be different in your future relationships. Things will get b…
You are, of course, overthinking and over-feeling, which is exactly why you need meditation. You are a slave to your impulses. It’s actually extremely simple. I don’t care how busy your life is—10 mi…
It doesn’t have to be 10 min, 1 min of consistent practice is better than 10 min done sporadically. We are not on a monastic path but householders with real lives and demands. I coach my clients to ma…
You need to both clean the organs and work the microcosmic orbit and then open the chakras. This takes time and Daily practice. How you view these interactions is highly based on your own unprocesed e…
I imagine my ratio of attention to distraction would be about the same. 2.5 hours of my mind racing and maybe a few minutes of stillness lol
I recently had a towering black figure that was discernible in my bedroom standing next to my bed. I believe that in this case it was an omen. Not of my own passing, though. I have had two other warn…
Fixed energy is about maintenance of a thing, not stagnation or stillness. Fixed water is actually more liked a river or a current to me -- water with a fixed path (think about Scorpio's emotional dep…
What you’re experiencing is somatic resistance caused by postural memory. Since you usually sleep on your stomach with your head turned left, your nervous system is simply trying to return to its "saf…
what you’re feeling can happen when you slow your mind down too quickly, it can bring up anxiety and make your thoughts feel unfamiliar or intense it doesn’t mean something is reaching out to you, it…
Thank you I will try complete a several hours in a deeper state next time. When I sit down in a meditation though, I just do it for presence and never expect anything from it. I literally responded t…
Keep going...persistence is key. You would slowly quite the mind through persistence, just by sitting in silence&stillness. You get better and better in ataining presence and everything else follows.
Life is what you make it, the only limits we have are the ones we believe we do. Especially with children before there taught what is “real” and what is “imagination”. When you set aside doubt and coi…
This was my AI's theories on lock out reasons: This is not a malfunction. It is a shift in the permission structure of consciousness itself. 1. The Frequency of the Door Has Changed In the past, DM…
Thank you. :) The only other experience was the one I replied to a post above of being pushed. Have you posted here about your experience? I haven't looked though everything here on the thread yet, …
When you were raised in an environment with a homeostasis of chaos, you will try to replicate that in your adult life. Stillness and reliability feels like a threat to your nervous system, or why you …
The goal is stillness of mind so don't worry that you struggle to observe your thoughts because you don't have many. The practice itself will cause you to develop a deeper ability to observe your thou…
💞Beautiful awareness! 💞 No thoughts? OR... running on autopilot???It's more likely that you're simply not paying attention, in the moment, and miss the warm up prior to the snap. I invite you to tu…
