YOU ARE IT!

“The discovery that the experiencer is the experience, is meditation.” 

— Jiddu Krishnamurti   

Two people can be sitting next to each other in the same room of a hundred people, watching a sports game & may experience completely different things. 

They are in the same environment. Surrounded by the same people. 

Watching the same game.  

Yet they have a different experience than the people around them.  

Same thing if you’re watching a play, or reading a meditation book, listening to music, or walking in nature. 

You may hear & read & see the same exact things that others are hearing, reading, & seeing, yet you have your own interpretations of the experience.  

It’s good to have your own interpretation. 

All children are living from their individual perspective until they reach a certain age & the world sort of takes away their individuality & tells the person what to think, how to feel, and how to interpret things…   

So as we age we sort of lose ourselves as we conform to our surroundings, but what if we didn’t?  

What if we kept our individuality? 

What if we understood the power of conformity, & then we understood the power of our individual self? 

What if we stepped away from the crowds, & decided what we actually thought about things? 

Your perception is your reality. 

And how we feel about it?    

Do not disempower yourself by adopting other people’s perspective. 

You are it!

RECLAIM YOUR MIND

Posted on by in Lifestyle, Philosophy and tagged , , , , , , , , , .

“Reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.”

— Terence McKenna  

There are several “powers that be” that operate to control peoples minds… 

Mind control. It happens more than you can imagine. 

You lose your mind & your inner power when you believe that people outside of you are more powerful than you. 

But you are much more powerful than you can imagine.  

Meditation is one way to realize your potential and you power.  

You must discover your inner self. And you can do this through the practice of meditation. 

Begin meditating with this guide.

Choose Love Over Blind Obedience

“And what does the money machine eat? It eats youth, spontaneity, life, beauty, and above all, it eats creativity. It eats quality and shits out quantity.”

— William S Burroughs  

The systems, in multiple countries, operate to guide people into working for the system. 

Death roams this planet looking for the next life to devour. The next life to transform to be more death-like and less life-like.  

The majority of children are vibrant & excited to live & learn about life…until ignorant & dead-minded “adults” teach them to fearfully obey them.  

Many people & organizations teach fear to children and adults, and then they wonder where life went… the feeling of being alive. 

The joy of life & living has turned more into a fear & blind obedience – & to behave like a lifeless machine – so that you’ll fit in with all the other lifeless machine people.   

Some fear is healthy – but too much fear truly drains the life out of a person.  

Mindfulness meditation is one practice to allow life to fill you up again. 

Are You Present?

Posted on by in Lifestyle, Self-Help, Uncategorized and tagged , , , , , , , , , .

Something I observe with the human race is that most of them are never present. 

Their minds are elsewhere. 

One persons mind is living in the past. 

One persons mind is dreaming of the future. 

And one persons mind is not even their own… they’ve lost their mind and now they are everywhere but present with themselves. 

Everything is always happening in the present moment, even if your mind is not present. 

The body is present, always, but the mind can be all sorts of places. 

The good news is that your mind can be present too, in an intelligent way. 

I may write another meditation guide, but the first one I wrote is here, titled the 7 psychedelic meditations.  

Psychedelic in this context means “mind-manifesting”  

Life happens in the present.

Antisocial Intelligence

Posted on by in Lifestyle, Self-Help, Success and tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

“Anti-social behavior is a trait of intelligence in a world full of conformists.”

— Nikola Tesla  

Why would anyone socialize with people they don’t even like?  

Also, cultures like that in the USA are enemies of meditation. 

They are an enemy of the individual being with themselves and enjoying their own company. 

The USA culture wants people constantly moving, constantly consuming, constantly being busy, constantly distracted. 

The “powers that be” are great at creating predictable people who obey their systems without question. 

What the “powers that be” cannot stand is an empowered individual who thinks for themself. 

The “powers that be” will literally break laws to break down the empowered individual, and all the mindless masses will just think that the individual was wrong for being an individual… 

It’s a crazy system…if you think about it, but most people don’t think about it – they just try fitting in so they lose their individual self in hopes for acceptance, yet then they are almost never really satisfied.  

Don’t lose yourself and gain the world…  but most people lose themselves and the world, as they conform to what the system wants, and lose their individual self.  

How can you begin taking back your individuality? 

Go somewhere and be silent. No technology. No media. No music. Just you with yourself. In nature is the best place to do this.

Here is a short meditation guide to help.

This is the beginning of meditation. 

This is the beginning of taking back your individual power. 

Relax Into Yourself

Posted on by in Lifestyle, Philosophy and tagged , , , , , , , .

“Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.”

— Chinese Proverb 

We live in tense, fast paced societies. 

So fast that some people & organizations appear as if they are on a train going full speed – with an unbreakable mountain ahead that they will inevitably crash into. 

Society persuades its citizens to hop on this train, and most people do, but it’s not going anywhere. 

What is the antidote? Slowing down. Not getting on that train. Relaxing. 

But even if you get further than most and are able to relax in these restless societies – ignorant fools will inevitably go out of their way to try and bother you. Try to disturb your inner peace – since they have no peace within themselves. 

Observe those fools like they are demons sent from hell – and treat them as such. Just as Jesus did, and live your life. 

Stand up for your inner peace and don’t conform to being a miserable, ignorant fool.

A Reason To Meditate

“Fortune and blessing gather where there is stillness. But if you do not keep still—this is what is called sitting but racing around.”

— Zhuangzi  

Where there is stillness, fortune and blessings gather.  

Do you have stillness in your mind heart body? 

Here’s a guide to get you started. 

Dive Into The Depths of Yourself (To Find Gold)

Posted on by in Lifestyle, Philosophy, Self-Help, Success and tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

“I have no fear of depths, and a great fear of shallow living.”

— Anaïs Nin  

Ralph Waldo Emerson also said “It is not length of life, but depth.” 

Depth has multiple definitions, one of them is: “a point far below the surface.”   

People dig into the Earth to find gold, minerals, things that will help themselves. But who digs into themselves to find gold within? Almost no one. 

There is gold within you – there is gold within all of us, but most will never find or seek the gold within. 

“Pearls don’t lie on the seashore; if you want one, you must dive for it.”  

It’s easy to do what everyone else is doing – to follow the crowd, to conform, to let someone else tell you the meaning of life.  But that is living on the surface; shallow living. 

You will get by on the surface, but you won’t find or experience gold within your life.  

You must dive within yourself to reach the gold, and it really does take years. 

But you have to start somewhere.  

Meditation is the place to begin.  

You can be like the majority of people & live life on the surface, or you can begin your journey to the gold within yourself.  

Begin with this meditation guide. 

Think Your Own Thoughts

Posted on by in Lifestyle, Philosophy and tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

“An entire sea of water can’t sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. Similarly, the negativity of the world can’t pull you down unless you allow it to get inside you.”

— Thich Nhat Hahn 

From the time we are born, to the time we lose our own mind (death of individual mind), to the time we physically die, we are being told what to think. 

Parents tell us what to think. Newspapers tell us what to think. Governments tells us what to think. Television tells us what to think.  

Almost every child born with parents of one political party beliefs will inherit those beliefs. 

People think they have their own beliefs – but they almost never do. 

People’s beliefs are almost always inherited from their parents, and sometimes by their teachers.  

Ce la vie.  

Anyway, how can you break free from inherited beliefs and start thinking for yourself? 

You have to learn to think with yourself – within your own mind – to ask yourself questions and not just answer reactively, but to dwell in it, sometimes for days, weeks, months, and then brainstorm answers. 

This doesn’t happen overnight – especially in these shallow reactive emotional societies we live in. 

First, before you start thinking like a philosopher, you have to meditate. 

You have to let go of your thoughts and beliefs and just appreciate life beyond inherited beliefs, temporarily, as you continue on your journey.  

Here is a great beginners mediation guide. Also the word psychedelic comes from two Greek words that mean “Mind Manifesting.”

The Importance of Nature

Posted on by in Uncategorized and tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

“When one loses the deep intimate relationship with nature, then temples, mosques, and churches become important.”

— Jiddu Krishnamurti 

Nature surrounds us everywhere we go. 

Nature is always the background, somewhere, but it’s also more than that. 

The sky, sun, moon, are a part of nature. And we have the water – oceans, rivers, seas, we have trees, bumblebees, snowy hills we ski. 

Nature is a living poem. It is living art. Nature is alive – and sometimes more alive than humans. 

I believe that the more connected with nature we are – the more connected we become with our individual selves and the community on a global scale.   

Here is a “psychedelic” journal you can bring into nature with you – and answer the writing prompts within, and follow the meditation session within this journal.  

The word psychedelic comes from Greek roots: “psyche” meaning soul or mind, and “delein” meaning to manifest or reveal.
