Feeling Building™ - The Path

[SlicK]

Thank you Debo.

I can't say that it sped up. But things are interesting. Resistance is still interesting. For 2 days it made me look at the world as a dreamworld, but through the lens of 'real reality'. I caught up to it at some point though, congratulated resistance and changed the lens back to the 'new one'. I don't want to look through a red lens and say "wooow interesting, the world is red but here is that green stuff I told you about". Nooo no no, the old model of reality is going to the back, if I want the world to be green, I'm looking through the green lens.

I'm also noticing how some really weird things seem normal to people (just like in a sleeping dream). You know how it is, if you're dreaming that you have a kitchen sink and a bathtub, in the living room, taking a bath there, if you don't know that you're dreaming, it's perfectly normal. You notice the weirdness if you become lucid or after you wake up. It happens exactly the same way in this life dream.

I noticed that my neural networks already show signs of progress (19 days to go). It's more and more easier to understand how the world is a dreamworld.

Also

Lucid living requires a fundamental shift of perspective, comparable to looking at one of those pictures of coloured dots that suddenly turn into a
spectacular 3D image. The first such picture I looked at promised me
dolphins, but I could see only dots. I didn’t know how to make the image
come alive. My friends kept assuring me that, if I just stopped concentrating
on the dots and focused my eyes on infinity instead, I would definitely see
the 3D image. But the more I was reassured, the more irritated I became at
my failure. Then suddenly, for a startling moment, the magic happened.
Dots became dolphins, leaping lifelike out of the page towards me. And, just
as suddenly, they were gone again. Encouraged by my brief success I kept
looking until I gradually got it. Now I can see these 3D images quite easily.
Experiencing lucid living can be like this. At first it sounds ludicrous, but
keep looking and eventually you will get it. The trick to viewing a 3D image
is to change your visual focus. The trick to experiencing lucid living is to
change the way you think.

is quite accurate. I would just phrase it "The trick to experiencing lucid living is to change the way you SEE.". And I'm not referring to sight alone. I'm referring to vision, perception and feeling. If you look a certain way at the world, you "see" it.

In the outer world, almost all the stupid problems seem to have gone away. Of course, just saying such a thing endangers me to bring back the problems so let's just leave it at that

What can I say, it's a real adventure, on all levels, inner, outer, thought level, feeling level, in relationships to people, to Awareness. It's the best ride I have ever been on. I don't expect only milk and honey but I do expect a permanent shift in perspective and an increase in Awareness.

I have this thing I now call "Dream Physics" that I keep reminding myself about. If I fall back to the old way of doing things (thinking, feeling, doing), I remind myself that this type of "real physics" is obsolete and incomplete. So I apply the Dream Physics. Sometimes effects are immediate. Can't give too many details cuz it's an extremely long subject. I will probably detail it on the blogspot site, piece by piece, as time goes by. The new/changed neural networks are often automatically reminding me about Dream Physics, with no conscious effort.

When I'm "switched on" I see 333 everywhere. When I don't see the whole picture I see 222. I get it now what it means (see Holy Trinity, other kinds of trinities, the triangle/pyramid with the all seeing eye BUT think deeply about it, it's more than they tell you).

This knowledge has such power and has been kept so secret that I actually do wonder sometimes if I'm going to be contacted by certain people.

Aaa, I could go on forever but I have to get up early in the morning so I have to go to sleep now.

Food for thought: I set a goal on 20th of November that should complete until 20th of December. I saw no way of it happening, had no idea how I could do it but I just intended it. It seemed totally impossible to happen in such a short time. 2 days ago I have been shown a possible way. Then I saw an obstacle. Then I saw a solution for the obstacle. Now I have the whole picture. It went from impossible to probable in less than 15 days. Now here's the thing. I got to a level where I am totally OK with it not happening. If it wouldn't happen, I wouldn't feel too bad about it. If it does happen, I give thanks to the Dreamworld that knows how to reflect our inner worlds in perfectly logical and realistic ways. This is something that people don't understand about the so called LoA (I find the term incomplete and misleading, and also, it kinda gives the impression that the world is material). People expect LoA to do something magical, that defies logic. But it doesn't. You are the witness of magic because you know how it started. When it starts happening, it makes sense for the ones watching you. Nothing out of the ordinary. They just see the effects. But because you know the cause, it is magical for you. Another thing is that if you set out on a spiritual journey to get things you want, it doesn't quite work. People see your philosophy, they see some great results and they want to do it too so they can get what they want in life; big problem, generates conflict. I don't know now how it can start for others but I know how it started for me: total dissatisfaction with the 'old model of reality'. I was just fed up and angry with the lack of exactity, though it claimed to be 'scientific'. It claimed to be 'scientific', everything is calculated, cause and effect but still it used terms such as "luck, coincidence, inspiration". I thank Awareness for giving me the much needed 'better model' of reality. Is it the truth? Is it real? Is it really better? After the last 11 days, all I can say is "It's definitely good for me!".

[Debo]

Hey Slick it sounds so exciting, I know what you mean about getting fed up with the old so called reality, how it all came about for me was being fed up too, bored with life, bored with always worrying about money and never getting on in life, so LOA was the carrot on the stick so to speak, but it has gone so much further than that for me, I want to see `truth`, i want to experience the lucid life. the only time I can honestly say i have experienced lucid dreaming was when I not long lost my dad this year, I dreamt of him and I knew I was dreaming, in my dream I was jumping up and down excitedly screaming `I knew it, I knew it, I knew you would come to me`, then I asked him for the lottery numbers haha, he didnt speak, but I was saying` its Ann isnt it? Ann knows`, very bizarre but thats one of the only times I can recall dreaming within a dream !

I want to get to a point wherby I can step back become fully aware, have no attachment to things and people and feel utter peace and happiness. I will have to start intending my direction with all this I think?

keep the information coming it keeps me motivated to go further and takes some of the fear away.

Debo

[SlicK]

You want to be Aware of the dreamworld. Keep it at that. Recognize and dodge resistance. Get out of your head when you're too deep in there. Increase consciousness by detaching from your own thoughts. Keep direction. Trust that things work out, not that they WILL work out, trust that they are ALREADY WORKING out. Keep walking!

Hi,
I read your thread and found very interesting. it seems you have the good knowledge about feeling.

My Problem: -"I don't know how to FEEL the things or thought".
I just don't know how to identify myself with feelings. For me it is very hard to feel anything. Trust me anything. Thus it is extremely difficult for me to Visualize anything. Pls help me in this.

I also do believe that everything has specific vibes and once we match that vibes then that matter manifests in our reality. For this I wear the lava pendant (Scaler energy) which stabilizes the energy in the body).

My main problems are 1) Lack of Confidence
2) lack of self worth

Can you help me on this? How to feel anything. For example: I deparately want the very good positioned salary with very high salary status in India or abroad.

Feelings are different than thoughts then what feeling is called? OMG its very confusing for me i guess.

[Debo]

Personally I believe the more you try to do something that is forced the more you would be blocking it manifesting for you.

I find it difficult too, to visualize or `feel` like you have manifested whatever it is you want to manifest. So for me I have been working on being present, how I am doing this is by becoming aware, especially when my thoughts wander, so for example if Im thinking about a past conversation with someone and I catch my self `thinking`, I say to myself `past`, if I am thinking about something in the future I say to myself `future`, this is to make me aware I am not being present, it works effectively for me and I am continuing to train myself in this. Its not always easy but I am working on it. I think this will help me with getting to a place in myself of not wanting or needing all the time, which is abundance in itself !!!

How do you know that you have lack of confidence if you cannot feel anything?

Gleb

[SlicK]

Drop the negative every time you notice it until it is not a habit anymore. Lack of confidence is just a habit of thinking and feeling a certain way. It will come up tens of times per day and you drop it tens of times per day. You will notice results after 3, 4 days and if you keep up... Also, take note that dropping has nothing to do with fighting against something. It is not a fight it is just a form of not doing something so it's actually a lack of effort. The real effort is to become conscious in those moments when the habit pushes your buttons. The rest is "laziness", not doing, ignoring, losing sight of, letting go.

The feeling thing is actually pretty hard to understand, before you understand it. After you get it, you just know it. You can't explain it very well but you just know it. You're in struggle mode now, I am tired but even if I wasn't I don't know if I could think of something that could help you while you're there. Drop the struggle too. You won't lose anything.

Debo, force means "it is not so, I have to make it so". It is a form of reinforcing the problem or lack and then also trying to solve or fill the lack. It's like pushing your car up a hill. It can be done but it's an unnecessary effort. The car is OK, you have gas, just get in and drive.

I'm having a lot of interesting fun lately with some mini-experiments done on the field. Works every time when I'm aware of the dreamworld. I also found a new way to become aware of the dreamworld. I was walking outside and some people were in front of me. I noticed how the "life camera" is filming my life, not theirs. I don't quite know how to explain it but it was intense. Made me realize that no matter what happens in life, everything is being watched LIVE by Awareness, through you and You alone! (now watch out for what you might interpret as contradiction, coming up) It makes you feel both important and humble. You're constantly the main character in your life, creating and watching your story as it goes. And God is interested enough to watch only through You. But it's still true for others. Nobody is more or less important. The Universe is centered around each of us. At some point, I felt (and "saw" through it) how Awareness started to rise and watch life from above myself and I was no longer the main character anymore, but I liked it. Then I felt how Awareness started to move around and film life through one person in front of me, then moved to the next, then to another person, then it came back to me, everything done with very smooth movements, professionally and artistically. No words could describe the beauty and clarity of it all. In just a few smooth movements, Awareness told me a complex story in the simplest way possible. The desire I had a few days ago to realize that Consciousness is not fixed in your head or eyes or self was manifested and I thank Awareness for that.

A lot is going on in my life at the moment. Huge shifts, huge resistance using all its weapons (doubt, fear, panic, sickness) and beauty slowly coming out of chaos. I forgot how nice it is to be so uncertain but still trust in life, feel fear and go through it, not knowing what tomorrow will bring and not caring, meeting so many people, so fast that you can't recall their names, things changing so fast you're not able to keep up. I am scared and confused but I LOOOOOVE IT! Life has a nice way to make things seem chaotic, scary, uncertain, impossible and then reward you if you have the courage to keep going in your direction no matter what monsters you see. Behind chaos is order, behind impossible is possible. Change is scary. When you change inside, the outside world changes too and you don't recognize things anymore, you become scared of so much shift and unknown. I always knew that there's something missing from the puzzle when people say that courage is needed. When something inside you changes, courage just comes natural and grows and grows. And that inside shift is essentially a strong decision, an "I'll DO IT! I am doing it, no matter what!". The way things are going is no longer so important. Things seem to not work, problems seem to keep popping up but it isn't important because your purpose is GOING FORWARD and you can do that no matter what. It's just about going forward now. Watch out for the monsters! and go EXACTLY IN THAT DIRECTION

And here I am, saying this now and some other day I'll tell you about how easy and natural it is and all things move along with you and you will interpret it as contradiction. "Is it hard, is it easy? I don't get it anymore!". It's everything... It's life, it's an adventure! When you stop walking, you stop living, even though your vital functions say otherwise. It's so simple. And you know it, you feel it if you're not walking. You feel the lack of life. You want to live. You were born to live! Go WALK! Life is walking. The rest is less important than the walking itself. Results? Positive and negative? Problems or solutions? Stability? You really believe that these are the most important? You know deep inside that positive becomes neutral or negative, results don't matter a few days after you get them, solutions are never final and stability becomes boring waiting for you to die. You want to live, you want to walk! What else is there to do?

Hi Slick,
have you tried to "ignite" inner feeling at will?
Say, ignite feeling of happiness. Or feeling of confidence. For no external reason. Without any "happy" or "confidence" thoughts. Just by internal decision command?

Gleb

[SlicK]

Yes I did. A few months ago I randomly tried to create feelings of Power, Freedom, Abundance and Happiness. I found out that indeed, no matter how strong the "evidence", inner feelings are not created by outside circumstances (outer feelings can be created by outer events). It's pretty hard to notice this and even after you do, you still often fall in the trap of believing that outer affects feeling. As long as you believe that, you'll never be really free. If you are very self aware of your inner feelings and record them, you will see how external circumstances pop out from those vibes and not the other way around. Even these days, as some things happened, I felt happy and I asked myself, is it because this and that happened or is it because I was happy before this and that happened? I had some notes of some inner work I did and guess what! the inner reality was created first then the outer reality was created in a few days. It's always the inner egg that comes first and then the outer chicken. Outer reality hatches from inner reality.

A lot of people ask themselves if they managed to create the feeling or not. It's pretty easy to find out. When the inner feeling is created, the need for the thing that resonates with your vibe disappears totally. It's the feelings that we want most. It's the feeling that fills our souls with joy. The objects and situations are just the cherry on the top, nothing more. So why not focus on the cake itself? Why so much interest in that cherry?

This post of yours is the wisest gem I've read so far from my total time spent on Steve (and easy many other) forums. It summarizes the essence of teachings of many wise beings regarding the nature of reality and manifestations we observe in material world.

I agree with the above post I could listen to slick all day long, it's so interesting and helps me loads

Thank you slick

Holy Sh...... it just hit me! I was reading Courageous Dreaming and got to a point where the writer says:

The task is not to bring our ordinary waking consciousness into the dreaming state, but the other way around: to bring our dream consciousness into our waking state, where we can perceive that "life is but a dream."

I noticed that the idea is strong. Then my mind started to think. At one point, it made a connection with the past. Here's the story:

Something like a year ago (more or less, can't remember now), I experienced the world as a dream. I got into that state of consciousness where I saw the dreaminess of the world. I couldn't keep it for more than a few days. I noticed that when I went to sleep and had lucid dreams, those dreams were like this "cold reality": normal, hard or almost impossible to change, logical, "realistic". I was asking myself why would this happen. Then something else happened: Steve Pavlina wrote about the exact same thing in a blog post

Last week I had a lucid dream during a 20-minute nap. Within the dream world, I was in my own kitchen, and I knew that my body was asleep on the couch and that I was definitely dreaming.

I decided to try doing telekinesis in the dream world. I couldn’t make it work at all. At best I was able to possibly make some leaves on a tree rustle a little, but it could just as easily have been explained by a dream breeze. It didn’t really feel like I was controlling it.

In fact, I didn’t seem to wield any special abilities in the dream world at all. The whole experience could just as easily have happened in this reality.

Now this is a strange development indeed. Normally when I have a lucid dream, I’m able to do all kinds of cool things like flying. But not this time.

By believing that I’m dreaming while awake, is it possible that I somehow infected the next deeper level of dreaming with my limiting beliefs about this world?

At that point, I started to think that it's not something subjective but objective, it's a rule that applies to everybody. But I still couldn't put my finger on it, why does it happen.

If you read all I wrote, you probably made the connections yourself. In dreams, we "think" in a certain way. In waking reality, we "think" in a similar but different way. Call it dream consciousness and waking consciousness. Of course, it's all theory but it's an interesting one and who knows, may turn out to be true. It seems that they're interchangeable. Which one do you wish to have in your waking reality?

CHOOSE IT TODAY! Pull out your dream consciousness and wear it today! Have the will, determination, persistence to keep using that dream consciousness in waking reality for at least ONE DAY! Of course that your waking consciousness will keep taking the driver's seat but notice it and use the dream consciousness again. If you manage to have at least a few hours of living with that consciousness, on purpose, and seeing the effects, you're lost forever, you'll never fully believe in this "cold reality" EVER

[Now123]

I only visit the forums now for just this thread.

Slick, I had the same realization months ago about fear. Approaching fear is basically embracing fear and in turn it leads to a positive manifestation.

The idea is too not react to the fear, or judge it as something negative. Thats when the fear goes against you.

When something unwanted occurs, I think it is essential to just allow yourself to feel relief and soothe yourself away from it ever occuring again.

So the idea is to take action, and allow and embrace every circumstance good or bad with out judging it. While staying in a neutral to very positive state of focus.

[Debo]

I was trying to take on the concept of my reality being a dream world, it is effective in the fact I felt more relaxed and sort allowed life to flow,then I got caught up in circumstances, stress and all that stuff, but now I will keep at this, plus I'm also trying to live in the now, stopping all the thought traffic going thru my little brain. Loving this thread so much,keep the comments coming.

"Empty your mind" seems too simple or too little to have any kind of dramatic effect. It just seems...

I think the idea is not to empty our minds but to focus or become the witness from a neutral or positive standpoint.

the focus doesn't have to be the subject of what is bothering you, but the goal should be to find comfort or better.

Im not an abraham hicks fan, but if there is one thing that I do take from them is to find relief on any subject.

I think thats the point of meditation or being in the moment, it will put you in a neutral place so you can work from there into feeling better.

Atleast thats the way I see it. thoughts?

[jota]

True...this is a great thread

[Debo]

It's amazing when you drop the resistance of life's struggles and allow yourself to go with the flow, you actually feel energized,I've a long way to go but il keep at it.

Thank you iDreamCatcher, but I do have a long way to go because each day I`m so different, one day I`m not phased by anything in life the next day I will stress over the most minimal thing. One thing I am proud of is that I work on myself daily, i read loads, I try to catch my thoughts and I constantly tell myself `allow`, allow your HS to guide you, stop trying to control everything !!!

Any advice please keep it coming,

any books I can read which will enhance my path right now??? I am reading online the Lester Levenson `The ultimate truth`, I love his work, he makes it soooooo simple and easy to read, I am not the sharpest tool in the shed so I like easy to read straight to the point books.

Thansk again

[Sponge]

Right with you Debo, am totally identified one minute and just allowing the next. Seeing that nothing is really causing me pain except my thoughts. However, I would say I don't seem to control my thoughts very much- just observe and distance myself so that I can see it's all just happening. Gives a sense of peace. Nothing overly strange happening in my reality though.

I also like to read simple, short, up to the point books. Life is too short trying to untangle philosophies of cloud-minded gurus.
I think release technique could be fun to practice - get Larry Crane's book from amazon - the essence is in there and it's cheap. In fact theory is all in the first 22 pages, the rest are practices.
He also publishes hard-to-find replays of his wednesdays calls here:
Accelerated Learning | Release Technique
All of them are like guided exercises and quite helpful.

[Debo]

So annoying isnt it Sponge, but all we can do is keep going forward with it and try to absorb all we can, Ive just gone back to reading BLFTMG for the hundreth time and amazingly I am starting to appreciate more of it and actually resonate with it, especially the part about not judging anyone or anything because if you judge something good or bad, hard or easy you are saying it is real, when you should be detached

You and I are leading parallel lives I think: I was only thinking this morning that I may read it again with my new knowledge.

Thank you, I will look out for that book, I really only get books now that are recommended to me, this web site has helped me with the next book to read all the time.

For me I need to start working on believing more at a core level, I do in my head but to actually take the next step and live this new belief I know I need to be brave, i need to `trust`, I will be OK and guided, looked after etc etc

Hi Slick,
Steve Pavlina is going to shutdown the forum in a few days as per this.
I really would love to follow your writings and observations as they so trongly correlate with my personal inner research and discoveries.
I see you have a blog that nowhere near as exciting as this thread.
Are you going to continue writing anything about feeling building somewhere? I'd love to follow you. If you need assistance to launch website or build your presence in another forum - please let me know - i do it almost fulltime and I run "present love" forum myself. I'd love to see your wisdom, thoughts and discoveries to continue flowing.

I have been contemplating a Feeling Building site or a DreamPhysics one or even a GodIsDreaming. When I'll hit the right vibe, the right things will happen. For now, I am pretty busy as my life has turned upside down (in a good sense) in less than 30 days. I completely transformed everything (read it as in He/It/God transformed everything) and now the Ego me, physical me has to adjust to things. I didn't even catch up with everything that has happened and is happening. I mean I have to sit and think long and hard about what has happened to realize that it did happen. Incredible World this is...

https://twitter.com/SlicKTricKS is the only social networking thingy I still have and will keep an eye on. Maybe I'll get a mobile app if people follow and are interested and I'll be active there before I launch some kind of site. It could actually be a pretty constructive mini-idea as sometimes I'm hit with pretty deep and wise insights and they have more value if I share them at that right moment. Much more than just words is transmitted this way...

So for whoever is interested, the twitter account is the place to "bother" me. Hit me up with follows, direct messages, mentions, anything you want and I'll (re)Act in some way when I can

Where demand is created, supply will follow.
