Opinions and Reality
“In Zen they say: ‘Don’t seek the truth. Just cease to cherish opinions.’ What does that mean? Let go of identification with your mind. Who you are beyond the mind then emerges by itself.”
— Eckhart Tolle
This idea is one that I am still practicing, and it is of a zen-type origin.
The reality that we all are much more & less than the opinions we create & speak about ourselves & others.
The idea that our real self is an experience beyond words.
This is an idea & a reality that is difficult to comprehend & even more difficult to experience, yet it is liberating to practice.
It’a at least a meditation, and at most a way of life.
What opinions are you holding within yourself that weigh you down? Opinions that anger you? Opinions that limit your experience?
Here’s a meditation guide to get you started.
Understanding Your World
“You have to take seriously the notion that understanding the universe is your responsibility, because the only understanding of the universe that will be useful to you is your own understanding.”
— Terence McKenna
We are all born into a unique position; none are exactly the same, but as we grow older, powers that be try to shepherd people into a position of conformity.
Rather than shepherd though, the previous powers that be used dehumanizing methods to manipulate & control humans. They still do it today.
The way out of being pushed & pulled by an oppressive machine system that cares nothing about you, is to learn to ignore the manipulative methods & to become empowered within.
The psychedelic experience is one way to break through the disempowering systems & become empowered.
No wonder why psychedelics are still mostly illegal… it’s time to reclaim your mind & live empowered.
The meditations in this book will get you started going deeper within.
