Dear J:

Thanks for that. I would suggest, on some silly therapeutic level, that you are depressed because you are depressing. Sounds a little silly, but it applies to a heck of a lot of people. They just keep doing the same crap over and over, and.... guess what???

Love ya, Jed.

Now Grasshopper, what are you going to do about it.

Two years is a generalization, it can take a second, or a lifetime, you will always get it when you die... to ego or body.

You tell me, what advice would you pass on if you where me talking to you?

Love ya, Jed.

Dear Joel:

And how do we know we follow our own guru but not ego? Now you are asking a very good question.

It may not be easy to tell the difference. This is where some practical knowledge, reading and experience might help.  One method is to watch if the inner guru is pulling you more towards the 'I am doing...' or the 'It is happening...'.

I am going to write a rant on this that may be of value to you.

Talk shortly,

Love ya, Jed

Dear Joel:

One thing at a time. What guidance from which psychologists are you speaking about?

Please clarify this very large subject.

Love ya, Jed.

Dear Joel:

Every effort you make moves you closer... to... death... but then, along the way, you may grow up slowly or very quickly. In my experience, observations and (short order) beliefs, you may become H/A in a micro-second before death (a little late IMHO) or it could take 50 years (approximation).

But, as I read this, I am intensely aware that it's just what Truth is to me. I think many Guru types fail to be of service by only presenting their set of possibilities. The possibilities are infinite, probably the only thing you can be sure of.

Find out what it means for YOU to be an adult or realized. This is what is so friggin wonderful about this whole setup.... it NEVER ends... the ultimate and only true infinite game is THIS.. YOU, RIGHT NOW IN THIS GAME... and on and on and on, but don't think it's all on and on ****, not true. It's on and on freedom... more explanation than that would just be b.s. words and God knows we have shared sufficiently.

You are more wonderful than you can ever imagine, brilliant light and love, being held down by WHAT? Like I said, different for everybody, so Joel, what is holding you down?

Stop squirming....

Love ya, Jed.

Dear Joel:

I here you. Just take it easy on yourself. Breathe deeply and just let go, but only of some very small. Then something else.

Keep at it.

Love ya, Jed.

Hi Joel:

Thanks for that. I don't know what happening in your world, but I would like to take a guess.

You a exhibiting a classic avoidance mechanism to keep you from looking at something closely. Techniques are not the answer to everything, but only dabbling in one, then the other, is a guaranteed that you will never get anything.

Which technique have you really put some concentrated effort into?

Love ya, Jed.

Joel:

Imagine you are on a staircase, going up and up, but it's cloudy and you can't see your feet. Each step feels like the last one, but, at some point the next step is not there, and POOF, off you go.

Love ya,

Dear Joel:

Don't worry about posting b.s., it's all b.s. and so are my responses, the only question is 'Is it b.s. that we can use to get closer to T/R?'

Love ya, Jed.

Try this.

Create more importances before you let go. Just imagine a bubble around you. Fill it up with anything you want. colors, shapes, emotions, cars, boat, triangles, trees, absolutely anything. But lots of it. All imagined, then let go of a specific topic and let go of you creations after that.

Try it and see what happens.


Love ya, Jed.

Hi Joel:

There are a number of differences between forums and in-person events. I have quite a bit of experience with both. I think the best thing is probably a combination of the two. But it's different for each of person.

Love ya, Jed.

Hello Jed,
No particular thing to say, but since I want to participate in this forum, I need to make something up.
For the latest rant, I don’t know why assertion, declaration and promise should be the components of the conversation. Won’t they lead the conversations to arguements and too much b. s.? And in your rant, do you mean members shouldn’t post experience? But I remember you wanted members to post experience before. Sometimes you are quite capricious.

Anyway, take care. It seems some members start to worry about your health. I know T/R person has the chance to get serious diseases, too. Maybe just expel us from this forum when you think we don’t try hard enough or don’t meet your standard. I consider it would be good for both of you and members. It can make members more focus and decrease your burden as well.
