This was fire. Very much like a poem in places and a sincere dharma talk in others. Very validating.

Brother, would like to talk. You're further down the path I'm on. I believe I grok what you're channeling, but like you said, I'm scared. I've got people who need me, which is another way of saying I'm not ready to let go of being needed. This stuff is a compulsion. Are we running or hiding from something?

We live in colonized god-space. We can take a break but I'm afraid to lose touch with those I care about in this colonized god-space. I'm watching their minds be colonized by sub-gods, some of the same small gods that colonized and formed the me that I'm not.

You obviously see it, and speak to it powerfully.

Now what?

Inviting you to come chat in the Creekmasons Discord.

Sending Love John 🙏🏼❤️‍🔥

I’m not on Discord much but you can link it and maybe I’ll check it out — or feel welcome to chat with me personally on Telegram @jordanbates111

This quote from Peter Brown reminded me of you today (I read it a few hours after first seeing your comment):

“So, you get to have your cake and eat it too. You get to appreciate this miracle as it actually is and at the same time you have the normal details of your life and your personality and your enjoyments and your challenges and all of that as it always was because it never was anything other than Radiant Presence. The mind will continue to interpret but as you settle into this more and more, you will have more and more strongly the sense that interpretations are inaccurate and irrelevant; and so even as the mind is interpreting, there’s less and less of a tendency to fall into believing that that’s true.” — Peter Brown, This That Is

I have no intention of abandoning those who need me in this world — I wouldn’t worry too much about that. We can inquire directly into the nature of What Is and realize that nature with increasing totality while continuing to go about our apparent lives as human beings in a world 🙏🏼💙
