WW said: Discernment recognizes the cause and effect relationship of actions and their result. It looks upon it in a way that seeks understanding and potential improvement, and thereby tends to be expansive of consciousness - which after all is the point of the Human experience. Yum yum Webby. It ha...

That was good, thanks for sharing 'Trails.

The thing about the three steps of meditating - I'd fall over asleep but I do do the mini
focus breaths.

aahh societal realities ;) what a pain they are. Is this change driven by my ego to be a part of something "cool" Should I stay with my current job, which will allow me to have a life outside of work, I could learn how to play guitar, join a choir, etc. In other words, should i let go of an identity...

Welcome Sal,

Sometimes I find some things speak to the core of us, like a best friend we've long forgotten how okay we were able to be real and authentic with.

That can feel exhilarating and make us a little breathless.

Breathe... breathe and be.

Welcome Exotica glad you're liking the atmosphere, snuggle in and wander around. Thank you for bringing up a topic that re-minded me of lovely people here over the years.

Eaglestare, thank you for the prompt to re read this lovely, tender, thread.

How is it all going?

Albert, you made me laugh sharing Lela's pillow throwing, thank you for sharing.

Hi gosp. You are obviously a very empathetic person, and that needs careful attention - what is yours, what is not, where are the boundaries? I'm glad to hear you are reading more and opening up to your own learning experiences. My question would be, I feel I have a positive effect on her, I mean ou...

It's a bit tricky when we don't have examples (for me) but I'll scattergun thoughts and see if anything is relevant. When one is creating unnecessary suffering for self and others, cause and effect are entangled. If ego is the cause the effect spirals at that level of awareness, making as ET says en...

Thanks for sharing that video I will finish watching it later. At the very beginning of it, the tiny percentage of our universe that is matter that is somewhat known to us, (4%), compared to and along with, the higher percent and growing dark matter and dark energy, is core in understanding how prec...

I know the ego comes into play in order to control, but could this be purely based on hormones/neurotransmitters/nutrients (I’ll call these body chemicals for short)? I understand that both could occur in conjunction, however, is it possible for ego to not be present under the control of body chemi...

Great questions, great response Webby :) WW said: The word appreciate itself means to grow in value. But in more practical terms it is the closest thing I have found to the expression of unconditional love - which is the heart of Source Being. Not that it's possible to stay in appreciation at all ti...

Hi gosp, I'm confused - how can you be 100% with someone who - "I don't know her exact place and name"? All you can do is be aware of how you are, and what you are triggering and experiencing fear about, and there are many examples in your post. Who will you be if she takes her own life? - you will ...

SalomeDH said:Having said that, I've come across some places where ET talks about there being a purpose that the universe wants for me and that I'm meant to manifest something for the universe. It is possible the energies in your interpretation - what you associate those words to has overlaid your ...

Andy said: Tolle answered a question in a recorded seminar from a person who "saw dead people," and responded that some egoic entity does survive the death of the body. Needless to say, this would be a topic for a different thread. Sounds like my sort of a topic :wink: But, why not here - the notio...

Not much Fore - how are you doing?
