How stop this endless cycle of seeking and just notice self?

I'm so scared I don't want to be in this endless cycle of seeking and trying

Pls help

Don't be scared, it's okay! You can't be trapped in an endless cycle of seeking and trying because what you are is BEYOND all of that!! In fact, "seeking" and "trying" are just illusory concepts; they don't actually exist!! There is no seeking!!! No trying!!!

Stop reading more and more posts without pondering or applying the stuff you read. I linked a couple of short pointers below; do yourself a favor and don't consume any more content after this!

And anyway my words are useless! I'm nothing!! I'm just a figment of YOU!! Any other words you read wherever are also just YOU!! YOU are all there is; so STOP relying on others and START relying on YOURSELF!!! What's the point of asking "other people" (hint hint: there are no "other people") questions when they are just YOU?

Ask yourself!! You have the answer! You ARE the answer!!!

Go within and JUST BE.

indifference + doing nothing 🫧

for the past few weeks, i have been contemplating this more, playing around with it in practice and allowing myself to experience what this truly means. there are plenty of quotes from neville and other spiritual teachers about the power of indifference, and how it is through indifference we allow exactly who we want to be to shine through.

but how ? indifference is much like doing nothing. and in the face of the ego, this is a terribly scary + uncomfortable feeling.

when you’re feeling anxious, or all these fears are popping up within you, or you feel that uncomfortable feeling inside of you that simply is so far from what you want to be experiencing… how can we do nothing ? we want to distract ourselves, put on a meditation to clear it out, repeat affirmations to push it away… you get the idea.

but what if, we actually did nothing ? just sat with it, and let it be ? well now what ? does that thing actually hold any power anymore ? nope. indifference starves the old way of being, it suffocates it of any air it once used to breathe, and like that, it falls away. it dies, so that your true ideal can take center stage. and all you had to do was nothing. in fact, all you did was just be.

so the next time you feel that bad feeling, that anxiety, or when fears clouds you… allow yourself to just breathe. to decide not to fight it, but instead to just allow it. notice the sensations in your body, the way your ego is urging you to make it go away. and do nothing, soothe yourself through it and let it be… because it’s meaningless, it doesn’t have power over you anymore. it won’t stop you from experiencing that lovely, godly being you’re here to experience. remember that those uncomfortable feelings are passing by, just something that is being released. and that’s actually pretty exciting, if you’ll allow it. :)

for those who struggle

i recently got sent an anon message about frustrations surrounding the law, and how non-dualism hasn't made it any easier for them, but actually just more frustrating to the point where they're officially walking away from everything and wanting to just go back to live as they knew it before any of this.

the truth is that, oversimplification runs rampant in this community. as well as, hiding behind the realities of how difficult it all can be, because people are afraid of affirming that it's difficult or identifying with difficulty... but when we hide from this experience and try to come off as if it doesn't affect us, while simultaneously trying to give out advice, there tends to be more damage than good happening. the oversimplifying isn't the fault of anyone, as the truth is most of this is simple. but in actually living it, it tends to not be simple at all. the ego will fight till the very end to keep things the way they are, even when they hurt us. and that is worth being honest about.

when it comes to non-identification and indifference, this is not meant to be used to as yet another way to pretend something isn't happening or push down your feelings or gaslight yourself. i see these posts like, "just ignore the 3d and don't identify with it and you would have already have what you wanted" ..... this doesn't actually really help anyone, unless you're a person who strives on that kind of mentality. but i think a lot of people need a little more gentleness and realness, otherwise this journey wouldn't have been so difficult and painful. we'd all just get it overnight, but clearly, this community stays extremely active for a reason. because the million ways its already been explained still leaves so many confused and frustrated.

indifference is a daily practice, and it is NOT one that includes pretending something doesn't exist in exchange for getting what you want. it is actually, the extreme opposite. it's by acknowledging what's there... and allowing that to be what it is. the non-identification comes in from how you choose to see YOURSELF in relation to whatever that thing is. "this is painful, this sucks, i hate it... but that doesn't mean tomorrow won't be better for me. it doesn't mean my life is doomed..." etc etc etc. it's this very small flip within yourself, that actually leads to results. not trying to force yourself into believing you aren't even who you are when you've identified as yourself this entire life. remember that god's name is I AM, and literally nothing else.

and doing something to get something else is just... not it. it's time for you to truly want to feel better, regardless of anything else. that's why so much of this starts to get trickier than it needs to be.

non-identification is literally as simple as realizing... you are bound to no past, and you have the opportunity of every future you can possibly imagine. why ? because non-identification is literally just non-attachment. when you're not attached to this idea of who you were, of the struggles you used to face, you're able to allow in different experiences. and y'all... this as simple as being able to say to yourself, "i am allowed to experience something new" and don't let your fear of the unknown stop you from experiencing something new.

here's where it doesn't feel so simple though. how can you just stop identifying with this whole human self when the traumas of the past keep coming back to haunt you ? thats the thing. you don't just stop identifying with it. you let this be a process, a non-linear path to liberation. slowly, but surely, if you keep at it everyday, even when you feel you're only going backwards... one day you will realize how much more free you are. how much more easier it is to move into a new beautiful story for yourself, one that isn't contiminated by your past. but let today be today ! and whatever may come, let it come.

this is why just focusing on yourself is so helpful because if you're simply doing the best you can for yourself and your feeling state, the daily dramas are no longer your ruler.

the gag is that, the more you just do these small daily practices of sitting with yourself, choosing to not engage in the stories you used to identify with in the past, and allow new experiences to come to you... the more easy it gets, the more the truth of yourself begins to show itself on its own. you have to realize that the days are going to keep passing by anyway... so stop counting them, and just commit to yourself.

i also want to quickly note that so many seem to leave out the fact that behind all of this, within the pure nothingness that is also everything. behind our human identifications and all the things we have experienced in our lives, there is unconditional love. and when we actually begin to stop identifying so deeply with who we thought we are, we are lead right back to unconditional love. love in its purest form. so, use love as your guide when things get too difficult. it's the truest thing to who you really are.

you have to let allow yourself to experience the beautiful, despite how strange it may feel. because it's going to feel strange if you've never really experienced it before, and the ego is going to fight because even when it's good, the unknown is still strange and scary. and you never have to be perfect at this to get to experience the things you want, believe it or not. i know that i still have a long way to go on this journey, there may be much more time before i ever get to fully experience the promise in full, but that hasn't stopped me from experiencing the desires of my heart on a daily basis. that's because i used these simple things, these small little flips in how i chose to see life. even if the anxiety never went away, or it was a more difficult day full of tears... this is way more possible for you than you realize. if only you're willing to allow your life to be different than it's always been. just that small allowance, opens up all the doors.

Anon, sorry I'm adding some of my cents, you said you know you are that and then in the next line you said you haven't experienced what you want.

These are two contradictory sentences.

Knowing yourself won't change in what you think is physical or where you want to experience.

Knowing is knowing and this knowing is the actuality.

Knowing yourself doesn't mean experiencing or not experiencing, it means that every experience is just a form of knowing.

Also you have successfully experienced what you wanted because you know it. And if you are one of those who think that until they see it with the eyes ( you get what I trying to say here ) only then it's an experience but it's not like this, it is always about knowing. You know every experience, you don't experience anything

Sorry Koda for interrupting

You’ve read enough

[spencerismyfav]

Is “misidentification” something I should worry about? I don’t quite understand the concept

Examples of misidentification:

"I can't figure out how to notice my true being"

"I want to feel peace and freedom like bloggers do but I can't"

"I want to be free but I am a person dealing with circumstances"

"I'm stuck living a life that I hate"

"I'm currently dealing with circumstances and I want to change them using a technique"

"My emotions/mental health/thoughts are keeping me from realizing self"

"I was aware of XYZ but I don't see it"

"I don't have what I want, what can I do to change that?"

This isn't something you necessarily have to worry about, per say, but if you often catch yourself indulging thoughts like these, you should take a step back and realize that these are baseless thoughts, not factual.

[spencerismyfav]

You're alright

there’s nothing much to say here, at least on “ ” side. i completely empathize with everyone who wants to “change” whatever circumstance they’re going through, to everyone who’s “suffering”, to the ones who just want things to be easier, to people who had enough about everything, i’m here to tell you it’s okay. just take a deep breath, and let go. yes, let’s leave all this ND/AV/ desires whatever, all that aside for a moment?

just for a minute, calm down, slow down. there’s no rushing, there’s no time, there’s no future no past. there’s only the eternal now. so for the sake of yourself and your peace, drop all desires, drop all wanting, trying, “to be aware”, getting, changing, just leave it be. when you take a step back, and assess the situation; in complete silence, there’s nothing to do. you’ll see how at end everything is just “ ” or the so called silence when you go within. so no one can hurt you, you’re safe, you’re alright. how can you be scared? when you’re all there is? yes, we are different illusions to each other, but at the core, we are one, we are just “ ”, experiencing itself.

what i’m trying to tell is, you’re okay. everything is.

i wish each and everyone of you, the most beautiful dream ever.

[spencerismyfav]

God, guys, forget about your desires at least for a while! Do you understand how limiting this is? Remember yourself! This blog points you to the real you! After that, you will have no questions and you will be able to change bodies, illusion or whatever you want, it's just a nice bonus, not the point!!! Of course you can fulfill your desires and live the life of your dreams. It literally says here that you are an absolute limitless authority! Who the fuck is going to forbid you? But first, get to know yourself. Believe me, it's such a thrill to just get out of the game and realize that you've never been human and this life is not imposed on you. This is your choice, your illusory world, you are safe and peaceful.

Yes

OMG I get it now!! There’s no such thing as being aware of eating a pizza and the experience of eating a cookie because they’re both “made” of the same thing! They’re both consciousness expressing itself as seeming appearances, therefore they’re no different from each other despite “looking” different, but senses don’t dictate anything since they’re also just awareness expressing itself. Both awareness, no duality! thank you <3

But what do you mean that there’s no imagination? I thought everything was imagination or that’s another label?

YEEEES OMG

imagination is just a label for a way you experience " " but it's not different than what we call "real life" because both are illusions made of " "

#nondualism

HI :)

Illuminated Mystic Here :

Let’s get this straight

Ego: illusion

Illusion = It does not exist

Yeah it’s that simple to understand

( This Blog and other blogs that talks about

“NON DUALITY” is a not a source of “Teachings” of Advaita Vedanta THEY ARE NOT

“GURUS OR TEACHERS” don’t look at us as

We are simply repeating what IS it’s just a POINTER

Advaita Vedanta -> YOU.

You don’t need to listen or read any Source or books or videos to BE YOU

THERE ARE RULES OR REGULATIONS TO THIS

There is no PHYSICAL reality or imagination or 3D or 4D They all the same thing ONE

O N E N E S S

You still “ suffer” because you think you are a person with desires, fears , doubts, senses, circumstances.

AND YOU STILL SEEKING for more information

Some of you came from LOA to AV (like ME)

And you still searching for more

Aren’t you tired of seeking ?

Let go of EVERYTHING UNTIL YOU ARE LEFT WITH NOTHING

This “process” is not about adding this is about reducing, it is not about gaining more knowledge, reading more and more and more than reading some more, it is about reducing and deconstructing everything until when? UNTIL you are left with nothing. DO NOT ADD, REDUCE

So in a sense Awakening is not about “Advancing ahead it’s about going backwards” Backwards, backwards, backwards and backwards until go at point 0 because Zero is infinity because you are 0

You are able to appear as a 7. For if you were 7 you would not able to be anything other than 7 because you be limited in nature so you must unimagine what you have imagined.

DECONSTRUCT what you have CONSTRUCTED

Until you realize that you are nothing appearing as Something ( FULL CREDIT BY Realitywarpingg on instagram)

You are Nothingness

I can say you are Infinite, nothing, something, God, one. all I want but you must experience it

Because words are fucking meaningless

No one can help you but yourself

YOU HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING INSTEAD OF NOTHING

Words can never ever describe the experience

This has been Illuminated mystic BYE FOREVER

For something that felt like days, weeks, months

I wandered searching for myself, someone, something

To free me

I searched, I cried, I begged

I kept looking back, at my own footprints, showing me how far I’d come

I kept looking in front of me, at the promises of a better tomorrow, showing me how much more was yet to come

I kept running in circles, trying to find an end to it all

Or a new beginning

I never acknowledged the simple fact that

A circle doesn’t know what’s it like to

End or begin

I shouted my name, heard the echo and continued the search

Every day and night

Felt just like the previous one

My only companion was the shadow of chronic deja vu

The lonely desert of my despair endlessly mocked me

Told me my efforts were in vain

Told me I’d never find myself

Neither in the footsteps of my past

Nor in the hopes I painted for the future

And they were right

All my efforts were in vain

I never found myself, anyone, anything

I was only a dream

A fleeting reflection on the surface of still water

The script of a play that never took place

Emptiness wearing a meaningless costume

Nothing pretending to be something

so many anons think “stop using ND as a method” = “you can’t experience what you want” when that isn’t the case at all😭😭 you are perfectly capable of having whatever experience you want in the SEEEEEEMINGLY (!!!!!!) physical world but that’s just NOT what ND/AV is about whatsoever. it’s merely a side effect of knowing who you are. so while it’s obviously possible, it has nothing to do with what “ “ blogs are teaching. which is why they’re tired of answering questions … REALIZE YOU’VE BEEN FREE this entire time and all those questions will be answered

Before anyone goes "but I thought there was no such thing as a physical world?"

Seemingly physical= an appearance that comes and goes= not permanent or solid

It's all occurring within the same dream y'all, it's all the same. Thank you.

[spencerismyfav]

the reliance on an AI bot (or on anyone/thing for that matter) seems so counterproductive. a thought appears that says "i don’t understand", you identify with that thought and take it to be true, and then look for ways to resolve that thought because you consider it to be your problem that you now have to deal with. you think you don’t understand, you think you’re not there yet, you think you’re not fully realized and you act accordingly; you go to different sources, asking questions, seeking answers, collecting more useless information. but how do you know you "don’t understand" besides the thought that tells you so?

in reality, there’s nothing to understand because what you are cannot be understood. you can only be that. and you already are it, all the time.

the thought that you do understand, and the thought that you do not, are both equally illusory. the key is to do nothing* about any thought. stand apart from them. leave them alone. you act on the thought "i don’t understand" because you take it to be you, you self-soothe and read more, you think "now i understand" and are relieved momentarily, that thought eventually passes too, and then you’re back to square 1. stuck in a constant loop. thoughts are baseless. meaningless. they appear, then disappear. they are harmless. the only power (reality) they have is that which you give them by taking them to be true. you’re a slave to empty things that you have given authority to. 🫰wake. up. 🫰

there is absolutely zero knowledge to be gained. no more reading to be done, nothing. here and now, you are totally ready. you are at your full potential right this very instant, in every instance. at every moment you are choosing the experience. you are absolutely no-thing right now, dressed up as "this person" in "the world". you have the option to be any person in the world, to go beyond this illusory world to another one for that matter, to be/do/have literally anything… but you keep choosing the same experience out of habit and convincing yourself you’re "stuck" as this. you’ve got so used to what you’re doing that you don’t recognize it anymore, you think it’s forced upon you, that this is the life you were born into, but i promise you it’s all your choosing. investigate it just a little and see.

searching for more and asking more questions is totally useless. you are a dog chasing it’s tail. you can do absolutely nothing to become what you are seeking, because you are already that. act accordingly.

"you need not stop thinking. just cease being interested. it is disinterestedness that liberates. don’t hold on, that is all." —Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

*in case it’s not obvious, by "do nothing" i do not mean don’t eat/drink/walk/talk etc. you can never do nothing. even the act of doing nothing is doing something. staring at a wall all day is still a doing. continue to tend to your tasks, look after the seeming body, socialize with family and friends — just fix your attitude. don’t get involved. don’t be pulled in any direction by any thought. be like a calm sea, unstirred by whatever happens. know yourself to be beyond it all. when a thought arises, and the impulse comes to act on that thought, study it. inquire about it. peel it back. break down your beliefs. you will soon see how "reality" naturally follows your lead, bends to your will, moulds to fit your ideals, because it is all just you. you have always had total dominion.

Well said, thank you💯🕉️

Why would people follow non dualism if it's not for their desires?

There's nothing to follow here. Advaita Vedanta (lit. Not-Two) is a hint to one's Being. Everything else dissolves within it. You only "follow" it for "desires" if you misunderstood the point and have one lack in mind you need to chase to receive

[spencerismyfav]

THERE IS NO SEPARATION.

Your mom, Your siblings, your Pet, You, are all one. Awareness. That's it.

"I'm scared if it's all a lie..."

How can it be a lie? You exist, don't you? How can you doubt your existence? That's the only truth. You exist, therefore YOU ARE. Not this human body you identify with, but YOU. The Awareness that the body is made up of.

When in your imagination you conjure a scenario and you become aware of it, you're aware of people speaking there, you hear them, you see what's going on in that scenario, do you need your senses for that?

Do you need this human body for that? Or is it just awareness?

Then what is the difference between this said imagination and the dream you believe you are experiencing through this person you are.

Nothing IS. Just YOU. THAT. Call it what you want. But that is the only truth there is.

It is all just Awareness playing with itself. There is no you talking with your SP, no you manifesting money, It's all Awareness interacting with itself. And that Awareness is exactly what you are.

"I want freedom and peace"

Freedom from what when you are the only one there IS? You have always been it my love, Always. You don't even have to do anything. Just question what you call your reality, question yourself, observe and notice what's going on around you and see the illusion around you crumble. It happens on its own, Trust Me.

There is no Person. No ego. No good and no bad. No desire. Nothing to attain. Because YOU are it all.

You are that place. Just BE. Come back HOME to yourself.
