      Then you'll manage it to the giga buddha, let us know if the fridge is enlightened too at that point. If you know that the light is on without opening the fridge, then you are realized. There is a shortcut to THIS, you need only buy a cat , put the cat in the fridge and then say : Schrodinger! I know you are there!!! if you hear "meeeeow!", ask 'what is meeeow?'

    This is helpful. “Unbinding is a spontaneous process.” That implies that we just need to give it an ideal environment, which I think is mostly just a regulated nervous system. That seems to be a good foundation. For me, the mind is so active that it demanded excitement and stimulation and would even generate its own. I had to work on that, so I wasn’t fighting it so much of the time. Feels a lot more natural and easy, now. 😮‍💨

    Thats how i experience it. When i ask "who am i", my seat of consciousness usually retreats from thought but then i have days where im lost in identification. I feel like i dont have much to say in this regard, so im chill and sometimes enjoy and sometimes forget to enjoy the "ride".

    Thank you! This really comes at the right time 🙏 The last shift though made it clear, that none of this matters, progress or not, enlightenment or not. It was clear, that there is nothing and nowhere apart. This is deeply relaxing! And now there is a ping pong game, mostly from day to day, feeling more attuned to "it" and feeling more in the I Me My. Kind of fun to watch at this point.

    Inspired by your video about Erik from the other night. Things had been really falling apart...
    I guess I would say I died. But it's really not clear who's gone.
    There's an unresolved whodunnit case right here, right between the eyes, a smoldering corpse,
    Maybe it was the years of fighting, the trauma, the PTSD, the childhood bullying the ongoing professional bullying, the career devastated by an uncaring medical system ready to suck the life out of people who "just wanted to help"
    I watched Christo, and Michael drown in it, and for a long time despair of the weights of all the stories weighed me down until critical mass, like a nuclear detonation, infinite pure white light from nothing, as nothing, going back into nothing...
    the bomb went off and the remains were found, the whole entire universe the bomb, and nothing at all born right where it was just a moment before.
    Everything is different, nothing has changed, and yet it's like everything was just freshly dusted, like an infinitesimal veil lifted.
    And the weight of that veil:
    Where once there was a yearning to know why? Now it is certain. It is thus. And it isn't.
    Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. And it took it's fair wage.

    Perfect timing, really. Again I found myself questioning any "progress". A short inquiry showed me that the reason I want to know if I had an awakening is that I fear the potential fear barrier and terror that might come with it. I want to know that I am already through that. But how can I ever know? Its easy to stay in the sense of being, and there is no struggle here. So why do I want to know where I stand, when peace beyond thoughts is obvious and available? Its a paradoxical process. I don't know how it would unfold without your pointings, Angelo! Infinite Thanks

    Im pretty sure i have had an awakeing, and the actual feeling and ”understanding” of it is similiar of one thing i have experienced before!
    The feeling when KBT work, when dealing with ocd.
    The wanting to deal with it and ”fix” it makes it ”worse”.
    And when seeing that its Only thoughts, its such a releif

    Ok, please offer me the space to suggest this:
    For me, this is a happening. When it seems to occur, the repeated repetition of resting in it and focusing on the selfing mechanism (Angelo Vidoe) starts a process. It assists in the somatic release of that experience. Once that happens the awareness plays it part, which releases a sort of opening. At minimum it’s a perspective change. Lately it has been seen as part of the maturation. This 3steps forward, 2 steps back. It’s like practicing itself to continually. What feels like progress and regression, is actually making the practice stronger. Angelo, maybe you can add some insight to this. At times I am aware that it’s just a thought anyways. And at times it’s a place I can’t really explain. Sometimes when it’s real noisy, I repeat…”I Am not the body, I Am not the mind”. There are a plethora of other experiences along with this. But I will keep it short. Again Angelo, care to point for me? 😉😂

    Meditation just made me gain the ability to feel all my feelings in real time. It's a really weird sensation. I'm definitely going to take the day off (and it's Friday here so I get the weekend too) because I don't think I can work like this. Hopefully I get used to having emotions because I need the cash. It's wild. I guess this is healthier than repressing them though :)

    There is no binding with sensations and feelings, right? But there is binding with thoughts about sensations and feelings, which creates the distorted perception that the sensations and feelings of that moment are problematic or negative.

    What feels like preventing my felt ego from seeing the truth is: I feel sorry for killing/deleting(?) the mindconstruct , as it's so desperately trying to hold on to existence.
    It feels less like murdering a sentient beeing/entity?
    What if I frame it like liberation instead...
