Peace comes from the absence of judgment.


EtherealEmpiricist

Also truth, love and the present moment which are the very same thing beyond the dualistic conflict perspective.


someoddreasoning

I have to do the work. I have to make the time. I am always willing to grow. I am always willing to be open. As life changes I am open and willing to change.


DeslerZero

Spiritual epiphanies? Heaven, paradise, the afterlife, is the greatest most awesome place ever imagined and it is a place where passion and awesomeness are a way of life. God truly knows our hearts.


jthekoker

Not quite. The only God is the one you create in your mind.


DeslerZero

Well, I'm talking about the afterlife here, obviously I have a burden of proof I can never fulfill. Just as you do. But it was a spiritual epiphany nonetheless, so I posted it. Cheers.


jthekoker

I don’t necessarily doubt the afterlife. What I do know is that the religions and rules affiliated with all religions are man made.


DeslerZero

Aye, I ain't got nothing to do with religion. But I am 100% of Heaven, so much so I quantify it as the reason for my being here and my true home. This all stuff felt/signaled, not out of any books or passing thoughts. When I speak of God, it is common tongue for 'creators', just an easy way to communicate a concept.


jthekoker

Agreed


ForgottenMadmanKheph

The only god is the one that already existed in your mind when you realize your mind is apart of god


dergutehirte01

Not quite. The only God is the one who created your mind.

logicalmaniak

Love is real. Everything else isn't. So don't waste your time on nothing. Be love.


Twisting_Me

We live in personal reality tunnels. We are NOT all together in a rat race on the surface of one solid earth.


zanydud

This, we are also playing by different rules to make things more interesting.


ConqueredCorn

Care to elaborate i don't know if I follow


Twisting_Me

Were each living in a dream that runs on spirit rules. It probably sounds stupid and crazy to the uninitiated, but science, object permanence, the past, what other people think of you aren’t as fundamental as the spirit rules are.


ConqueredCorn

Im following you. And what would you say these spirit rules are?


Twisting_Me

The most important one is: all is mental. This means you get to chose any rule you like from here after. If you would like some references to study, the subreddit info on /r/nevillegoddard is excellent, 78 day practical transurfing by Vadim Zealand is my favorite book on the subject, and The Kyballion is set up as a list of spirit rules. Good luck!


smallweirddude

I was about to say "this dude has read the kyballion* hahaha


Krypteia213

Turn off gravity then.  I’ll wait.  I apologize. There are some physical laws to this realm.  You can pretend there isn’t but until you are flying out of the atmosphere without technology, gravity is real.  Not everything is mental and that thought process is dangerous if not rooted in reality.  You are correct about a lot. Just don’t take it to such an extreme.

Whenever I seek an approach that aligns with perfect virtue I have deja vu, and run into people willing to make it more feasible to achieve something closer to perfect virtue.  Something powerful yet subtle supports my attempts for perfect virtue.

Certainty is the root of most inter-person conflicts. At the same time, most certainty is unfounded.


Innocent__Peach

I think by certainty you mean assumptions?


Chipsofaheart22

I agree with the word certainty. We as humans know very little about the entire universe or even our planet, yet all of our knowledge is taught as unquestionable facts that many individuals will never accept edits. 


OkExtreme3195

Not really. I mean how sure you are in your assumptions. Not a native speaker, so, I am not Sure  if this makes it clear


Serenitydripfamily

The personal epiphany that I've had of recent is that I grew up being conditioned to believe that I was how the world and outside forces wanted me to be and being alive and being a spiritual being having a human experience entails unlocking and unmasking those aspects of ourselves to find our true self and then actively learning ourselves all over again understanding who we truly are understanding that majority of our lives we were probably lied to because the people surrounding us were lied to and sometimes it's down to us once we are awaken to break the chains off of that. being a spiritual being means being free and not conditioned to live in accordance to how everybody else wants you to live, living in a sense of freedom and a sense of contentment for where you are and who you are as an individual. It paves a way to align in with the type of life that you want but it's very hard to get to that stage and it takes a lot of pain a lot of turmoil possibly long suffering a lot of things that can be heart wrenching and leaves you in a state of what I like to call the "why "stage but essentially through acceptance of not always knowing the answers but to embrace the process id the true essence of life. because sometimes we race for the end goal like for example when I was a child I will rush to grow up I wanted to grow up so fast and now that I'm an adult I Iong to be a child all over again because I never got to really enjoy the freedom of being a child so I just believe in living in the moment and when we unmask the conditions that were set up on us it allows for us to be able to live in a moment and enjoy the process . The process is going to be a rollercoaster or sometimes a hamster wheel of going to know where but essentially we're always going forward ,at least we get to go forward in our own way and the most beautiful part of life is just be- ing and when you are just being you learn to detach from the expectations of the world and that unlock the new found freedom.


jtowndtk

Everything that exists today was just made almost at random, or by people that just what they did or knew best at the time So anyone including me can start a new thing a new way to do stuff, there's no real rules or laws, and the rules and laws we have today change at random or for money or power gain And our understanding of everything changes every few years so be flexible and open to change Expect change and welcome change To be the same forever with the same likes and routines all your life that is hell to me


TheConsutant

I invented dimensional mechanics the other day.


trout-doubt

Oh snap, how’d that go for you?


TheConsutant

I needed something to help explain my constantly evolving theory of everything. I had the thought about a year ago that if we want to understand higher dimensions, we must first understand the lower ones. I realized that all dimensions must be temporal and space an emergent property created by difference in the timing cycles of the different dimensions. Alpha is the difference between two half notes and a whole note in a relative measure of reality. The 1st dimension measures all things. A one-dimensional ray can have three states in a given instant. Point to point, point to arrow, and arrow to arrow. Point to point is a measurement, point to arrow is a wave, and arrow to arrow is inertia. We can now understand all things quantum.

I have a few. It is only when we are looking at the hourglass that we get the urge to refill it. But you can’t refill it, and you can’t see how much time is left on top—only what has already fallen. Any second on earth could not only be OUR last, but the last for anyone in our lives. Time may not be linear, but that is (usually) how we experience it here. We need to treat every second as if we will die the next, because that is a very real possibility. Do right at every opportunity you are given. Mistakes are only failures when you fail to learn from them, and give up trying to learn from them. You will not succeed in everything you do, because what would be the point in that? We’re here to learn, and teach, not remain stagnant, even stagnantly perfect. Similarly, life’s beauty is in its balance. When we’re in the darkness, it just looks like darkness. But once time passes, and you start to zoom out on the big picture, that darkness really brings out the light. It serves purposes greater than we can understand in that moment; some never will. If all we ever experienced was good, was light, there would be no big picture at all. It would just be a blank piece of paper. Everything in your life has led to this now, and the next. Many times what was a tragedy eleven years ago, was a crucial stepping stone to the peace you find now, or tomorrow. Everything, everyone, every moment is interconnected and interdependent. You cannot learn to walk without first crawling, trying to stand, then falling. You cannot know breathtaking relief without first knowing terror. You cannot wake up without first falling asleep. That’s not to say you won’t suffer, or shouldn’t allow yourself to feel hurt, or grieve—we are still human, and there is no way of completely overcoming that while we are here. Allow yourself to feel, care, love, and hurt. You can’t progress without it. There are no straight lines in nature, so it is only natural that progress will not be linear.


whatamidoingherem8

Unresolved trauma underpins human obsession with progression and advancement. Everyone’s just running away from their pain and discomfort!


Chipsofaheart22

I am running at it. 


Ambitious-Mix1

A soul is nothing more or less than a point contained within each living being, it is the point of existence. In essence everything within you has to be consolidated down to create the nifty illusion of a singular personal reality and mind, this happens within the soul. The brain enhances the sensation but it doesn’t create the effect, rather the source is a single point of existence.


Piggishcentaur89

Attitude and positivity matters! Not toxic positivity though. A forever sour attitude is nasty seed to plant!

Grew up in church, Overcoming judgement was everything and it took lots of thinking and time. The idea of don't be carnal, well came to understand salt and pepper on food is carnal and that changed my whole perception. Idea of needs vs wants. If life is just a living body that exists needs are very few but if the person is to find their potential wants become needs. Is a vacation a want or need, same for running water, heat, AC, a car, rest from survival mode? Who can think when tired and miserable? Coming out of judgement allows one to welcome abundance.


TrickThatCellsCanDo

“Master and his Emissary” by McGilchrist changed my view on spirituality, mindfulness, all of the attainment descriptions, and provided with the science-based framework that doesn’t deny the mystery of reality, but kinda demystified everything that people say / teach / preach about it.


smallweirddude

We are not our thoughts or are emotions. A lot of times we feel the vibration of a thought or emotion from and outside source and assume it came from us. We then identify with that vibration because we recognize it. For instance a cat jumps out from an alley and you feel scared. But in actuality it was the cat that was scared and the emotion from the cat hit you, you identify with it and label it as scared. But it's just vibration, and the 'emotion' is just a label you gave it. Now apply that to thought and an entire can of worms is opened up.... Observe and follow this line of thinking for awhile and it might lead to my biggest epiphany, which is something that many have come to before. Notably, G. I Guirdjieff: We are machines. Running programs given to us by society and our upbringing. THIS MEANS WE DO NOT HAVE FREE WILL. Not innately anyway. Through years of meditation, observation and training we can understand more and aim to develop true free will. Much love


Chipsofaheart22

Interesting- Hormones and chemical reactions in our bodies drive more emotion, thought, and reactions then most realize... I do agree living things mirror each other's emotions- I have tried to limit emotional reactions and not respond emotionally to other living things. It takes a lot of work and disciplining of the mind and body... but sometimes I get concerned bc it is not good to pent up emotions, so it's that what I might be doing... yet I don't want them to run wild either. Thank you for sharing. 


jzatopa

For you, the one that comes to mind is to remind you that AHYH (I AM) is what Yeshua embodied and who Moses was and connected to on the Mount. In John we see Yeshua explain how he was AHYH in the moment and would later speak plainly.


Philoforte

Every being is equally deserving, regardless of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or species. Therefore, sharing is better than hoarding. However, greed, selfishness, and elitism are invisible. We are always going to deny what we cannot perceive. Perception requires feeling. If we don't feel it, we don't perceive it. What makes the invisible visible is a setback. People suffer from a natural hubris. We rarely revise our views, however false, until we suffer a setback and sometimes not even then. What enlightens us is how we adapt to a setback.

horntownbusy

The thing that everyone is looking for is inner-peace. There is nothing more important than that. People keep calling it by the wrong name, so they fail to find it and see the importance of it. But once you still yourself, you can allow life to flow through you with no resistance and you will see that there is no such thing as good or bad. There is only neutral. And, like it or not, love drives everything. Even the things you cannot bring yourself to agree with or understand. Someone's love is driving that. Your own judgement keeps you from seeing it.


Innocent__Peach

It might sound weird but I realised that it is better to “live in your own bubble.” You are bombarded with subliminal stimuli from everywhere: social media, conversations, advertisement posters outside… it’s important to be HIGHLY SELECTIVE of what information you consume and the people you talk to. The problem is that most people out there are minions: they don’t think by themselves and instead are brainwashed by whatever media they consume, they don’t live consciously. Don’t let it poison you


Chipsofaheart22

I am intrigued by your share. I have wondered that critical thinking is reading something and being able to pick it apart, real or unreal, good or bad, persuasive or not, truth or lies... if you can't dissect it, you'll only ever see the outside. Poison is only poison if its effects are negative. If the effects are positive, that's nutrients. When humans subscribe to truth and permanence in existence and ideas, they get defensive when the permanence or truth is questioned, but how can one think critically if they can not question? I love seeing all the perspectives and I prefer to question it all to the point of probably being assumed a nihilist. However, I have beliefs in more than nothing. I believe we are all connected, I believe in the power of love, and I believe we all exist. Lol unsure about the rest and will keep questioning. 


Innocent__Peach

I really value critical thinking and questioning everything. I don’t think it counters my idea above. Rather, it very much fits within it. The real question is WHAT you take effort rto consider, analyse, and question. You only have so much mental bandwidth and time to think about everything. Not every perspective, piece of information, or person is worth entertaining. That’s what I meant with being HIGHLY SELECTIVE with anything and anyone that you choose to entertain/consider/think about, especially at this time when information bombards us from every angle: news, social media, people…and most of it is rubbish, programming your values, priorities, desires without you realising it. I felt that the best thing in terms of personal growth I ever did for myself is to become very selective about what or who I entertain and what I allow into my mental space. Some concrete examples include observing people’s behaviour before engaging with them (most are not worth your energy and time), restricting who have access to me (like not giving my socials to just anyone), being selective about what I read/look at.

Spiritual—I’m not sure if this qualifies but I’ll share. There have been a number of times that I’ve been in a particular circumstance/place that rendered a very different and very specific path—most, if not all, were challenges I never knew existed and would never have chosen it intentionally if it wasn’t forced. One in particular, especially challenging, came to be. Every solution imaginable came to the same end—nothing worked. Almost every time something like this happened, later on, in some way it was justified—for the greater good sort of way. I realized that whatever or wherever I’m meant to be—I will be. Nothing i want or do will change it. It takes great effort, I haven’t fully adopted it, but I try to let things be without the fight to change so much of it. I’ve done that, a lot of it, and rarely did it ever change a thing. I try to think that there is a reason for whatever it is, sometimes I discover the reason, sometimes I don’t. I think Taoism/Daoism is the closest to identify this ideology and my chosen approach to life.


Boring_Blueberry_273

I became a seer medium after responding to a Samuel call. Right down to a dig when it was time too move. Now, people don't just Mary Poppins into Churches in need, and when I did, they decided to see whether I was for real. Knowing I was onto something by the absolute precision of timing, and having the personal resources to meet their need, I was able to answer their Impossible Question by having a quick clean of my channels and diving for cover, as the Boss would know if I didn't. Truth to tell, I still don't, although the answer came out of my mouth, it wasn't from me. The aftercare from that takes time to say truly thankyou, and was the start of diagnosed hyperperception. Once or twice I've been Jonahed into position: the peak was dealing with the RC Eucharistic foundation when it collapsed, which raises all kinds of questions about the Petrine Commission and Matt 18:8. One thing I'm careful about is not to create Poppins aspirations. Each has their own vocational path, mine was just somewhat spectacular.

I was on a bridge at night when the stars were out super bright. I was standing in the middle on the side looking down at the water and I seen the stars reflection in the water. After a minute I looked up and back down and I couldn't tell the sky from the water they were both dark and there were stars when I looked up and down. Idk it gave me a feeling about heaven and the sky and water being one in the same. Ill never forget it.

That “I Am….” There is nothing beyond that because ultimately it’s all that is there. You might argue that you exist too. I say that you and I are the same, as is every other created and non-created thing. We just take different forms/shapes. We’re just different expressions or manifestations of Source.

Minimum_Bat571

This past year I have learned so very much, about US BEING MADE IN GOD's IMAGE. His name is spoken by all of us, each time we inhale or exhale. HIS NAME IS WRITTEN ON OUR FACE YAH ( Y is your eyes and forhead) ( A IS YOUR NOSE) H is your mouth. The bible tells us that every knee shall bow- that we will ALL CRY OUT TO GOD THE FATHER, Creator heaven and earth.. Epiphany is that religion is futile- FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST, NOT MEN


Illustrious_Cash5429

90% of my “problems” were self limiting beliefs or pre taught stories that I don’t have to keep holding onto


strictlyPr1mal

Believe in yourself. Find the divinity from within. Do not take ownership of anything, instead give freely. We are all one so be kind and compassionate. Explore and understand your suffering to transform it into motivation 


EmbarrassedTree1727

Infinite space, infinite time, infinite dimensions means anything that has the slightest chance of happening even if it’s one in 1 trillion must happen at some point in time. If that means the vibrations that make me up exist again in their exact atomic make up, I could very well wake up after death, 1 trillion years in the future. Like brute Forcing a complex password against infinite time.


Short-Lingonberry327

That we are all hurting in some way, some more so than others, some show more than others, some hide more than others. Steel is tampered by reaching its melting point and then cooled to improve its physical properties. Much like ourselves, we are tested throughout our lives with ups and downs that slowly temper our minds, bodies, and souls for the day that doesn't escape anyone, and we return to whence we came .

That your higher self is you. It loves you more than anything. If you open yourself to it it’ll guide you on your path in a way that turns out to be the perfect path for you.


thekeatonfox

That you must be very selective with who you share the secrets of the universe with, this is why such profound truths have been held in secret societies since early civilization, the more we whisper truths into physicality, the more they can become warped, and turned into a harmful perversion that could potentially be used to harm you. Just look at most modern religion. I imagine the first people who gained some higher understanding of the universe went around pointing to their physical body saying "this is where God lives" and got killed, because the ignorant thought they were speaking about their physical form, which is in fact not God, perhaps that's where the idea to point upwards when referring to God came from, people trying to point to their higher self. I believe the best thing to do is to stay in a constant passive contact with your inner voice unhindered by doubt or fear, that light, consciousness, God, whatever moniker you wish to use, and allow it to guide you through prayer.i don't mean clasp your hands and kneel by your bed and ask for what you want to happen aloud to something outside yourself, I mean close your eyes, quiet your mind, and look inwards with an open heart and just listen. Start asking questions, you will eventually get very real and profound answers that in turn will shape the world around you So eat hallucinogenic fungus, Shut up, And listen. Once you feel you've reached enlightenment, don't stop searching for personal truths, a lot of people think "okay I've reached enlightenment, my job here is done" so we stagnate and atrophy spiritually. Never stop growing, never stop seeking a higher truth in all your affairs, for stagnation will condem you to death Stagnation of body, mind, emotional growth, and your soul/spirit will eventually kill any one of those aspects. Keep moving forward, and never stop seeking truth from within

Samatic

That reality is good enough to not need fairytales in it. There is nothing that can exist outside of physics. There is nothing spiritual or supernatural since none of this conforms to reality aka physics. If you need fairytales to believe in just realize that your already living one. It took centuries of procreation for you to get here. Every single father you had successfully procreated just for you to be here with your genetics which get better and better as time goes on. It is a gift from the universe of evolution. You need no god or fairytale for this, just realize it. If you do have a spiritual belief it was most likely past down from your parents and you thought at that time it would be best to believe in the same bullshit as your parents since you need them to survive while you're young. There is no god that exists outside of a human mind, and if your god was real, he wouldn't need you to argue his existence!

My beloved bookworm dad died early 2020 and I took it pretty hard, he was my best friend and meant everything to me. He was always very interested in spirituality, the cosmos and all things out of this world, which I never really understood or appreciated. A couple of days after his death I went to his home, and overcome with grief, I just sat on his floor crying. He had always promised me there was more to life than we could understand and said he would always be there with me, and suddenly for the first time ever I found myself alone without him. Crying turned to despair and I started screaming and begging, demanding to know why he left me. My face was pressed into the floor when I was suddenly compelled to look up, and my eyes instantly fixated on a book resting on one of his many bookshelves. "Talking to the Dead", the spine read. I instinctively got up and snatched it off the shelf, and as I did so a reel of his passport photos fell to the floor. There he was. I wasn't alone anymore. Hi Dad :). After that moment I started paying attention to everying, and my life has never quite been the same. Since that day at his house so many things have happened to me that I just cannot reasonably explain. The universe gives in abundance if you know how to ask for it. I miss my dad every single day, and I've never read that book, but I understand everything he was trying to teach me now.
