Page 228 of your Spiritually Incorrect book. That's where I am. Thank you for this, this makes it very clear.

Huh, you weren't kidding, everything is self-verifiable. Thank you I have no more questions.

I'm back. I thought about it a lot. I don't want enlightenment. I don't feel ready for it because, well...I feel there's no point. I have a lot of things I want to do and I  don't have a pure  inkling to move towards  it. So what I would like help with is learning how to go  into Human Adulthood. Is there anything you can tell me or resources you can point me to in order to get there?

Thanks,
Avi

There has been little, or nothing, written on becoming and adult. People don't teach it because, in reality, there are few adults out there. The only course that I have ever seen on it is the Navigator Series.

There are many different aspects of growing into adulthood. One of the basic steps is to forgive and let go of all past hurts. This can be done with something as simple as a decision, but there are specific contemplations which are designed to accomplish that. They are too lengthy to post here and require a little hand holding.

Look around you are what purports to be adults and you will inevitably see children in an adult body. Watch how they behave and you will almost always be learning what NOT to do and how not to be. Life as an adult is far more fun and rewarding than as a child, counter-intuitive as it may sound.

Love ya, Jed.

Love ya, Jed.

I feel that way pretty frequently when I see people's reactions to things and there seemingly oblivious nature and attachment to there reactions. I've felt glimpses of high awareness, and it's made me aware of how unaware I am most of the time. I'm also aware that, that high awareness is not as high as it could be since my "high awareness" before was much lower in tier. I'm guessing by your description in SIE that it has to do with what i've read about acting in High Consciousness ways which was described as surrender, intuition, joy, indiscriminate love, complete emotional responsibility. As well as creative, active, and spontaneous ingenuity  versus mechanical action. Does that sound like HA? If so then I seem to be growing in  the right  direction   

What is the Navigator series by the way? I looked it up and found a lot of car-related information. I hope I  don't have to buy a new Toyota haha.

Sounds like you are doing fine on your journey to H/A.

If you want info on the Series please send an email to cambodianashram@gmail.com.

Put ''waiting list'' in the subject header.

In the journey to H/A, I tried to run away from everything having bottomless meaning by trying to create meaning. I can't do that anymore, it feels impossible to create because I always see through the flimsy foundation.

What would you recommend?
Also is understanding this type of meaninglessness as dark night of the soul useful for h/a?

I could recommend many things, but first you have to share a problem, and I'm not getting one from you.

Ok,
Everytime I do or create anything, all meaning in it falls apart because I see through the foundation. This is making and has made the past year hard and confusing to live. I want to be my authentic self, but whenever I try to I end up building an image which I can see is fabricated. How can I be authentic without fabricating an identity? I mean in terms of H/A as well, not T/R.

''You'' can't be authentic, it's impossible as long as there is a ''you''. It's like standing up and sitting down at the same time. Now, you tell me the solution to you challenge.


Love ya, Jed.

I hate to say it, but destroying my identity. If I'm being honest I don't like it because I'm terrified of it. Or I guess I can somewhat see that my ego is reacting to it because it's attached to creating more illusion. I feel scared to make a decision because I don't know what internal signal to trust. One signal wants to destroy everything. Not completely physically but start anew. Does that sound like a signal that would be correct to listen to?

I think practically then I do more S/A. But in which direction. I feel a strong, almost real attachment and desire to keep my ego so maybe I should start by destroying that? I ask because I really want H/A but I think it's out of fear and ego being attached to the rewards.

You don't have to destroy anything, just see through it all. See the falsity of all that arises, forgive it and let go of it. It's surprisingly simple yet far from easy.

Love ya, Jed.

Right now I'm at a point where I see through, as far as I can tell, any attempt I may make at constricting a character through external identities like an accountant or firefighter. Or representing any values like truth or love as my own. These fall apart pretty quickly when I try to attach to them. I'm having a lot of difficulty and frustration with experiantilly seeing through my thoughts. Can you give me some sort of practice or method to do this? If I'm being narrow minded or approaching this wrong please let me know.
