What intrigues me right now is the idea of impact.... Sure waffler is a word! Colloquial doesn't mean invalid. I think others know what you mean, too
I too have crossed over to the other side but still stand at the shore at times, looking back. Not because I want to, just adjusting to this new path.
It started awhile ago with other "contexts" I had combined into a new perspective. But I felt there was still a missing component - I was looking for the ideas to be expanded upon in some way. When I found Steve P.'s writings on subjective reality I knew I'd discovered a larger message. I was so happy!
We all have some kind of impact on each other, on our environment, on everything. I know its an objective question to ask... Yes, it is!
Most notably, I become aware of a deep, intimate connection with the person or people I'm with....Those who are comfortable with subjective reality love the experience, they feel seen, loved, and often want more.. It's my belief that 'other' people may not even know why they like being around you but they can feel your heart - even if they do not know what subjective reality is.
To be seen and loved that way is powerful, its like nothing most of us have ever experienced, at least not without the use of drugs.... Makes sense and objectively, lol! I'd say, isn't that the truth! I've felt for a long time that people do drugs always because they want to feel better, no matter the details of their drama. I am convinced that the most loving mystics in the world (and incuding people like Ghandi and Ammachi who I feel is a living mystic) had a line into this way of seeing the world and their place in it related to others. They knew and know all kinds of Secrets about life and seem to try their best to demonstrate and teach what they know. How many trust? How many listen? Subjectively, I'm still finding my feet on this.
I don't think you have to give up the things you like or think are not so bad in your "objective" life. It's just that how you perceive these things is what could change. | System pop-up says message is too short to post and to add 10 characters??? Hmmmm......what could that mean subjectively? |
