Why It’s Important To Know How To Lie

by Leave a Comment

Quick Fact

-Knowing how to lie makes it easier to spot liars! It also makes it easier to catch yourself if you’re lying to yourself or others.

Intro

I’ve written a couple of posts that detail the benefits of being honest and telling the truth, but it’s come to my attention that learning how to lie can be just as beneficial for various reasons!

Since the apprehensiveness surrounding this subject is fairly high I’ll address the stigma first and continue from there!

The Stigma

Most of us automatically assume that lying is a bad thing and that we shouldn’t do it, ever. It hurts people, it destroys relationships, it kills businesses, and it’s overall a crummy thing to do… But, perhaps this statement isn’t the entirety of the truth.

What is lying? It’s when we don’t transcribe reality as it happened, is happening, or will happen combined with malicious/dark/low-vibrational intent. Why do people lie? Because they want to manipulate people and reality so that it works out in their favor. Why manipulate like this? Because they (usually) don’t understand that they can get what they need and want through positive, regenerative means and that these ways are better ways to achieve what they desire. 

What I want to say is this; liars lie because they don’t know any better, they’re not very intelligent. They have low IQs and EQs, and the lack of intelligence is the primary reason for them to act this way. There are some liars who lie while they’re completely aware of everything they’re doing, but these kinds of people are few and far in between, they aren’t your normal everyday liar. 

While we have this stigma around lying I encourage you to understand that people who don’t have VIP access to the mind lie because they don’t know any better. If they knew that getting what they want is easier when they’re genuine and honest they would probably become genuine and honest just so they could get what they want! So please, let’s not be too upset with people who lie, as hard as it may be.

Why Know How To Lie?

To me, learning how to lie is just as important as learning how to tell the truth. Yes, we can exist in a state of mind where we live and speak without consciously choosing to lie or tell the truth, however, I’ve found that learning how to do both feels much more meaningful than learning how to do neither and that it’s probably the same for you as well! Here’s why:

-Knowing how to lie is extremely helpful for spotting lies in real life! There are a lot of differences between a person telling the truth and a person who’s lying (if they aren’t trained) including a lower tone of voice, a flushed face, slumped shoulders and back, the general vibration they put off, and a lot more. 

-Knowing how to lie can help you create your own reality, especially if you feel guilty for doing so. I remember many times when I wanted to change my subconscious thought patterns and start new beliefs (“I am confident,” for example) only to have a voice pop in my head and say, “stop lying about who you are.” I had to realize that if I ever followed that voice I wouldn’t have been able to create the incredible mental world I live in today!

-Ironically enough, knowing how to lie can help you tell the truth. After all, if you know what a lie is you’ll have a much better idea of what the truth is!

-Knowing how to lie can help you with acting. For the actors and actresses among us, being a good liar can translate into incredible acting skills, especially if your character is literally lying in your production!

-And last but not least, knowing how to lie can be extremely beneficial for integrating yourself. If you suppress the desire to lie it will come out in ways you don’t want it to. It’s much better to consciously learn how to lie, disidentify from the belief(s) that you need to lie (possibly the archetype that speaks the lies as well), and consciously integrate that energy into your personality so that you have much better control over it and can use it in the best possible situations.

How To Learn How To Lie

There are various ways to learn how to lie, but these are some of my favorites:

-Watching former CIA/FBI agents telling us what gives it away. I faintly remember watching this YouTube video and learning more than I wanted to know!

-Watching the best YouTubers playing Among Us! If you watch jacksepticeye’s Among Us videos in order you’ll see a transition from anxiety when he’s the imposter to an amazing actor who can do amazing plays and lie like he was telling the truth. Also, playing the game yourself works as well.

-Learning how to spot lies through body language, tone of voice, fluctuation of voice, and actions in particular. Once you know these things subconsciously change before/during/after you lie you can consciously control them and tell more effective lies!

Final Thoughts 

It seems to me that the best application of effectively lying is telling jokes. For example, someone asks you if you ate the last cookie, and you respond with “noooooo, I would never…” in an exacerbated tone of voice, even if everyone already knows you did. 

Also, this information is probably best suited for those of us who deal/have dealt with tyrants and narcissists since we can directly apply the knowledge as a filter to their behavior and act accordingly.

The one thing I don’t want you to do is take this information and simply use it for your own personal gain. If this is your plan I encourage you to disidentify from the beliefs that you need to lie to get what you need and want, as well as adopting a more positive energy. This will help you get what you want in a much more effective fashion!

Conclusion

Thank you for reading! This post was hard to write so I suspect it was hard for you to read, I commend you for keeping your mind open and looking at this stigmatized subject from a different perspective.

I’ll see you in the next post!

The Best Ways To Approach/Counter Tyranny

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-Tyranny is a fundamentally corrupt structure to live within! Refusing to accept it whenever we come across it can lead to a much better lifestyle.

-Disidentifying from the tyrant within ourselves and ignoring tyranny when we see it is one of the best ways to counter it!

Intro

If there’s one thing I would change about our species it’s the relentless pursuit for power and authority. I’ve personally suffered from tyranny and I’m sure you have as well since tyrannical narcissists make the majority of the elite that are alive today. 

But perhaps even more frightening is the idea that the tyrant lies within us on the psychological level, ready to spring out and negatively affect everything around it. Suppressing this tendency sounds good on paper but often doesn’t end well when practiced! 

What Tyranny Is

This is what tyranny is, as I have observed it:

The tyrant is the opposite of the good king. The good king genuinely cares for his subjects and provides for them in plenty. 

The tyrant, on the other hand, only cares about himself. His subjects only exist to serve him, and therefore they are treated poorly.

This archetype has been playing itself out for a long, long time in the literal sense; that is, kings and emperors who didn’t care about anyone but themselves. In America it’s a little more subtle now; we have the CEOs of large companies that often (if not always) act out this archetype.

For example, the people who are at the very top of any candy company don’t give a shit about whether or not their product is hurting people, otherwise, they wouldn’t sell it! It’s not even a thought in their mind. They’re probably spending most of their time working and spending what little free time they have in very expensive ventures. They see people as stepping stones to living out their detrimental lifestyle and nothing more, and since they have as much power as they do, I consider them tyrannical.

Why Tyranny Is So Detrimental

Why should we care that the land is already owned? Why is tyranny so bad? Shouldn’t we just fight against it anyway?

A tyrant is very, very insecure, intensely so. The reason we know this is because they require physical force to enact their demands and defend them from angry lashing out, whereas the good king’s subjects feel loved and appreciated and willing to do what he asks.

In fact, this is why they often have so much power; they feel a deeply-rooted desire to climb the ladder and screw people over because they genuinely feel powerless. 

So, you have someone at the top of government/large corporation who has a lot of power but who’s in a lot of pain. Then you add many, many more people like this and you get what we have in America today – a bunch of people who are always frustrated, late for work, and behind on their projects. Not to mention that many American lifestyles have become sedentary and dangerous due to the lack of exercise and stunning anti-lack of a poor diet, but it’s not entirely their fairly since these people are willing to serve shit to their fellow citizens in the first place. 

Also, without tyranny, there is no corrupt power struggle that really matters. What I mean is if we don’t engage with these tyrannical doings (buying crappy food, participating in elections, etc) they will cease to have any power, and this is good since their power comes at the expense of your wellbeing. I encourage you to think about that!

How To Navigate In A World Run By Tyrannical People

Okay, let’s get into the meat and potatoes of the whole thing – how to deal with it.

Since we’ve had to historically deal with tyranny for such a long time I’m almost completely certain that the archetype of the tyrant lies within us on the psychological level. I suggest the first thing we do is consciously choose to disidentify from the archetype, accept it for what it is, and watch it play itself out in our minds. This effectively transcends the need to act out the archetype, and having our full attention on it helps us understand it fully, and understanding it fully leads to the solution for healing, which in many cases has to do with recognition and acceptance!

After this is complete we have multiple ways of navigating in a world run by tyrannical people:

-We can ignore tyranny entirely. This option is more difficult the fewer people are willing to join you, but it’s still a valid option. If we simply ignore the low-vibrational orders from government and corporate officials we will be in the clear because of the constitution, and we will also be dealing with it in a much more effective way than by arguing. I encourage you to encourage your friends and family to ignore tyranny whenever they see it, and the larger of a group we simultaneously do this with, the more effective and influential we will be.

-We can learn how to love tyrants and then deliberately seek them out. It’s not difficult to love a tyrant and give them what they truly desire, although I suspect this option will not be very effective towards many tyrants since they tend to be the most resistant towards love out of everybody! This path is not for the faint of heart and I commend you for taking it.

-We can separate ourselves from tyranny by buying our own land and living off the grid. Tyranny is present in everything to do with money, and so living off the grid on your own plot of land is one of the best ways to deal with tyranny! Now that I think about it, there are still property taxes and things of the like… But this option brings you very close, and I’m sure you could bring this issue to court if you want to be completely free of tyranny.

-The video and content production-abled among us can add some anti-tyrannical subliminal messaging to their videos! This is one of the most helpful things we can do to counter tyranny.

-Speaking of court, you can challenge tyranny wherever you see it. I don’t recommend this option unless it’s a last resort since arguing with the unreasonable often doesn’t produce desirable results! Even if you’re in the legal right I wouldn’t be surprised if the court ruled in the favor of their buddy since they scratch each other’s backs quite often. If you’re going to challenge tyranny I recommend knowing your rights, the constitution, and the law inside and out, and hiring a lawyer who is effective and has a good heart. 

Final Thoughts

I often mistake outbursts of anger for actual tyranny, and I don’t want you to do the same! For example, a co-worker might say “You need to go do so-and-so” in a resentful tone of voice, and while my subconscious mind says “that’s tyranny and it needs to be fought” I later realize that it was simply an angry outburst and that I shouldn’t have taken it so personally.

Also, while it seems easier to do, conforming to the tyrannical desires of others is the worst thing we can possibly do (in this perspective) for one sole reason: it’s never enough. If you give them an inch they’ll go a mile and then push you for more, because that’s their nature. They don’t feel gratitude for what they have, instead, they’re possessed by insecurity and the obsession for power, so obeying their orders only tells them that they’re on the right track and that they can move on to bigger, nastier things!

Conclusion

In conclusion, it can be difficult to properly handle these kinds of people because they tend to be so powerful. While it can be difficult it’s definitely worth the effort to ignore them because true freedom lies on the other side!

Thank you so much for reading my article, I’ll see you in the next post 🙂

What Is Honesty and Dishonesty, Truth and Lie?

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-Honesty and dishonesty are both parts of the moral structure, which is a man-made psychic structure/belief system.

-Living with a strong sense of honesty and morality is “middle-of-the-road” in a vibrational sense!

-There are states of being that are beyond morality, some of which include love, communication, seduction, and understanding!

Intro

I created a previous post detailing truth as an intensely-felt portion of reality, however, I’ll love to create another post about honesty and dishonesty because I left a couple of important parts out in my first post. 

What is honesty? Why be honest? More importantly, how do we transcend honesty, and why? These are the questions that we’ll answer below 🙂

The Essence of Truth and The Essence of Dishonesty

I always like to compare honesty and dishonesty with the hero and the villain – you can’t have one without the other. An honest man is only an honest man if there are other men who are dishonest!

This isn’t a full and complete explanation – in essence, truth is regenerative and dishonesty is degenerative. One builds and the other destroys, and I argue that these are felt realities experienced by many people who are alive today. In a spiritual context, honesty is a bright yellow whereas dishonesty is a combination of dark colors (especially dark purple).

I’m almost 100% certain that we’ve created this part of reality for thousands of years. That is, we told/tell ourselves that honesty is good and dishonesty is bad so, so often that now it’s a deeply held belief in the collective unconscious. Just like any creation, it has a substance that comprises it, but there was also a creator that created it – and in this case, there are those who carry the belief structure forward into the future!

Honesty is definitely middle-of-the-road in a vibrational sense. Being honest is much better than being impulse-driven, but it’s not quite comparable to spiritual enlightenment. It’s best for many of us to understand what honesty is and why we should be honest because it would help bring us out of (at least some of) the misery we’re in right now!

Honesty and Morality

Honesty is a part of the moral structure. Good and bad, right and wrong, honest and dishonest. The hero and villain archetypes play themselves out on the moral level and so does almost everybody on one level or another!

That’s not to say it’s a bad thing – there are many of us who find infinite meaning in conforming to moral structures, and even the villains enjoy going against the heroes because of the meaning it holds for them. In fact, having good morals and acting them out can be seriously amazing for your life! 

Beyond Morality

However, there are states of being that are beyond morality! This is not an excuse to rationalize being immoral while feeling a sense of positive morality, however, there are simply metaphysical places to be and games to play that have nothing to do with the structure of morality. 

One of these games happens to be the game of seduction. Often in seduction we say and do things that would be considered immoral if we viewed them from a moral perspective (for example, saying something like “I’ll always be there for you” simply to produce the feeling of love in another).

One state that is beyond morality is the state you move into when you question the existence and purpose of morality. And now that I think about it, Nechzie wrote an entire book about what is beyond good and evil (beyond morality) that goes into much more detail than I do here! Music transcends morality until someone sings lyrics that conform to the structure of morality.

Now, please note that it is not wrong or evil to stop subscribing or adhering to this man-made metaphysical belief system. You won’t become a killer just because you stop choosing to be on the level of morality because you’re disidentifying from immoral as well as moral actions and beliefs! In fact, you may even receive more well-being if you move to a better overall perspective since you won’t be so stressed about moving towards the light and away from the darkness.

If you do this, I highly recommend acting/being moral when you’re around other people since that’s what they respond to; they don’t tend to respond to individually-cultivated/adopted perspectives that are outside of the moral perspective :).

Final Thoughts

There isn’t too much to say about honesty! I started this post thinking it was going to be much longer but really I just wanted to promote the idea of moving away from morality since it’s a viable option for highly-developed individuals. I’ll probably receive a lot of push-back against this idea but I’ve personally benefited from living outside of the lines of morality so I’ll definitely vouch for it.

If you don’t know where to start and you plan to “step outside” as I call it I recommend putting your wellbeing and other people’s wellbeing at the forefront of your priorities. So, if you don’t want to subscribe to the belief system of morality, I recommend striving to be well and to help others be well 🙂

Conclusion

Thank you for reading! I appreciate your time and consideration, and I’ll see you in the next post!

A Call To Legalize Psychedelics – Or Else, To Use Them!

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-Psychedelics, psilocybin mushrooms, in particular, are very healthy for us! It’s for this reason that we should legalize and integrate them into our country as soon as possible!

-We can minimize the dangers of psychedelics by taking the necessary precautions!

Intro!

Psychedelics have been a part of our history for longer than most of us think! The earliest evidence of usage we know of is 7,000-9,000 years old, and we have evidence that psychedelics have been steadily used in many different cultures around the world throughout these 9,000 years. Only recently has the law been trying to control our perception about these substances by making them illegal and talking bad about them.

So, we’ve been using them for 9,000 years and we’re still alive as a species? That alone should tell you something right there. Why is the law trying to cover them up? And what are they, exactly? Why am I writing a call to legalize and use them? Let’s answer these questions down below 🙂

What Psychedelics Are All About

Aight lemme say something:

Almost irregardless of the psychedelic it shows you what’s really happening. And, they can show you that what’s happening is meaningful in and of itself!

I make this call because (especially in the case of substances that are naturally psychedelic such as psilocybin mushrooms, DMT, etc) our quality of life was much higher when we were ingesting them many millennia ago. We stopped, and now we’ve turned into… this. And yes, it’s because we stopped, it’s not just a coincidence :p

They’re all about opening your mind and giving you the opportunity to do so many things… To see and feel so many things… They really make our quality of life shoot right through the roof, so much so that it’s impossible to capture the entirety of it and put it into words, and so much so that too many of us are chronically suffering as a result of abstaining from them.

Why They’re Illegal and Talked Down Upon

Let’s say you want total control and that you’re willing to obtain and maintain it at any cost. You get into government, start at the bottom, and work your way to the top… The very top. (I understand this is unrealistic but bear with me.) You’re part of the elite and you have the power to do anything. What would you do?

Well since you want total control and since you’re willing to obtain and retain it at any cost you’d subtly control what the TV stations can or cannot play, and what the movies/shows can or cannot say. You’d put regulations on corporations so that they have to pay you and follow your rules just so they can stay in business. You’d control what the public school system teaches children. You’d be constantly attempting mind-control experiments to see which ones are the most effective. 

And, you’d be searching for and eliminating any possible threats that threaten to remove you from power. This largely includes armies and arsenals from other countries, free thinkers, speakers who expose their ways… And psychedelics.

Psychedelics have an amazing capability for exposing the government for what it really is; certain people expressing who they are and what they desire. They can show you that just because someone writes something down as policy or law doesn’t mean that it should be backed with physical force and that the law should be scrutinized and seen for what it really is – a fear-based agenda of keeping a few in power. 

“But, doesn’t the law keep criminals from getting their way? Doesn’t it keep us safe?” Many criminals are a result of a combination of poverty and anger/resentment. Why are people poor? Because they don’t have enough money. Why don’t they have enough money? Because their job only gives them just enough to survive, just enough to get them through till their next paycheck. Why? In some cases, it’s because the company is greedy, but in other cases, it’s because they’re bound by so many legal obligations that they couldn’t afford to pay their employees more even if they want to. Also, because the employee cannot move up or get a better job. Why? Because they weren’t taught how to do either of those two things!

Why are poor people angry/resentful? Usually, it’s because they grow up with people who are the same way. But why do they stay like this? Because no one tells them better, no one tells them that it’s a good idea to ask themselves why they’re angry and how they do everything they can to help themselves have better lives and have less resentment. And who’s responsible for teaching children the right things? The parents, but who taught the parents? The school system. And who runs the school system?

Uh-huh, you guessed it…

Ultimately, the government creates the very problem that it claims to eradicate. It’s rules, laws, regulations, and endless thirst for power (combined with negligence and ignorance) negatively affect everybody else and encourage criminals to become criminals. Then they step in and claim to cure the problem by putting them in prison, but people don’t actually learn from going to prison… They learn by taking psychedelics!

This is why the law has banned these substances, they don’t want us seeing through their charade. They don’t want us to figure it out and notice what these substances have to offer us. But my biggest fear is that you respect the law and therefore go with what they say; I request that you respect me even more, listen to what I say, and try psilocybin mushrooms for yourself with the correct intentions while alone and safe. 

And besides this, the law goes out of its way to incriminate innocent people, especially people who take psychedelic substances, as I’ve mentioned before. That alone should be enough to raise an eyebrow or two.

They’re illegal and talked down upon because the higher up you are in government, generally speaking, the crazier, lazier, and more corrupt you are! Government is a corrupt system to begin with, and so climbing it requires a corrupt attitude and mindset towards… Well, everything. 

What Are The Dangers?

-Fear. If you feel a lot of fear and/or you ingest with people who feel a lot of fear the experience may not be very beneficial. It can become a danger if you or somebody else panics due to the volatile effect psychedelics often give us, especially if we act on this panic instead of simply letting it pass through.

-Paranoia. As an offshoot from fear we mostly have the law to thank for this one – if we feel paranoid that we’ll get caught after ingesting we’ll probably spend most of the experience looking out for law enforcement and/or people who would turn us in. If the paranoia is strong enough it can easily lead to a panic attack and undesirable actions.

-Mental illnesses. If you have a mental illness (whether it’s surfaced or hidden) or if your family has a history of mental illness then psyches probably aren’t for you. This is especially true for schizophrenia. The reason for this is because your mental state half determines the nature of your trip… Although I’ll be honest, I’ve never taken psychedelics with schizophrenia, so I’m not sure what actually happens… However, I feel like airing on the side of caution as far as this side is concerned.

-An unideal set and setting, coming across the wrong people/wrong situations (bad influence). What tends to happen when your set (your mindset) and setting (your physical situation, things, and people) isn’t set up properly is you come across situations and mental stuff that make the experience unideal, or even dangerous. We want to avoid bad influence more than anything, which is why I always suggest being alone during these experiences. I’ve also written a post on how we can properly introduce psychedelics to modern society, and the solution greatly helps with this problem!

How We Can Use Them Most Effectively

It’s difficult to put into words just how amazing reality is after ingesting psychedelics. And it’s quite dynamic too – you can eat some psilocybin mushrooms and take a nice stroll in the woods to have the experience go one way, or you can take the same dosage and lie in a dark room with your eyes closed for a completely different experience. What helps define these experiences are the intentions you have before and during the ingestion, and your mindset/beliefs in general.

Some amazing intentions to have before taking these substances are, “I intend to learn as much as I can today.”  “I intend to deeply meditate with these substances.” “I intend to heal myself.” “I intend to self-analyze and uproot my detrimental beliefs.” “I intend to form my best perspective.” “I intend to heal others.” “I intend to be.” “I intend to pay attention and see what’s really going on here.” Having these intentions really makes these experiences useful and provides the opportunity for long-lasting, positive change. I’ve observed that if we take psychedelics without these intents or similar intents the experience is shallow and doesn’t provide very much meaning.

Also, I encourage you to keep your physical environment worry and stress-free. Canceling any plans you have, not being in the company of bad people, not being in the city (I can personally attest for that one) are all great ways to improve your setting. This is almost just as important as having a great mindset.

And beyond this, if enough of us take psychedelics with these intentions (and perhaps there are better ones) we can live fulfilling lives, be able to heal ourselves and others, be influential for the right reasons/ends, act in the right ways, and tend to the earth. These are some of the major things that too many of us lack… Thankfully it’s an easy fix 🙂

Conclusion

So, if you’re reading this as a legal official I encourage you to take this information to heart and do your best to lift the ban and the negative influence the law has on psychedelics. But even if you don’t, that’s okay – more and more of us are waking up and taking them anyway, without your consent, without your permission… Because it’s the right thing to do 🙂

Thank you for reading, I encourage you to read some more of my content!

What Is Meaning? A Look at Meaning, What It Is, and How To Find It For Yourself

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-Meaning can be experienced as a felt, emotional experience, one that many people seek to feel every day.

-You can decide what is meaningful for yourself! On the same token, you can ‘disidentify’ from the belief that anything you consider to be void of meaning is, indeed, void of meaning; this greatly helps our emotional states!

Intro

Some of us are unaware of it; some of us are searching for it; some of us have no idea what we’re doing, and some of us already know what meaning really is.

Today, we’ll explain meaning. We’ll clear up any confusion that exists in the present, and we’ll definitely clear any potential confusion that may exist in the near future!

What Is Meaning?

We all know (or have seen) certain people who are inexplicably “brilliant” in one form or another. Maybe they have a charismatic personality, maybe they are very interesting to talk to, maybe they seem very emotionally intelligent, etc, etc.

They tend to “light a fire” within us for a brief moment while we’re in their presence, and then we go about our daily lives and the feeling has vanished. What’s happened here is you talked with a person who has discovered their own path to a meaningful life and has followed it to some extent.

Unfortunately, “piggybacking” off of someone’s meaning can only happen while you’re in their presence; if you haven’t found your own path to a meaningful life it will fade into who you’ve been up until that point (hopefully with a slight change towards the positive).

These people aren’t special, they aren’t necessarily gifted, and they certainly aren’t worth bowing down to or making a religion after. Rather, these are people who live in the felt experience of meaning. They have (mostly consciously, sometimes unconsciously) found what means the most to them in life and they simply go for it and see what happens. (This usually works out; there are rare instances where it doesn’t, but for people who don’t find meaning in the things they consciously pursue they find it in another area of life.) 

In one of my more recent posts (The Primacy of Spoken Language) I mention how words are keys that unlock certain images and/or feelings for an individual. However, these realities are mostly realized when you decide you want to realize them.

I can say that a meaningful life is a life lived while feeling the felt experience that the word “meaning” points to, which seems to be more or less the same experience for everybody the more and more they chase meaning, but it doesn’t mean anything to you unless you feel it for yourself.

With this realization, you can start to visualize what a meaningful life may look like for you, and this is a good segue into the next paragraph.

Meaning Is Found Within Yourself

Intuition is you telling yourself information that you ought to know. If you find something or someone meaningful then you’re telling yourself that this thing/person is good for you and that you want (or even need) more of it/to spend more time with that person. Since intuition is mostly a subjective phenomenon we can conclude that meaning is to be obtained by looking within.

I put great emphasis on this because some say that looking within does not provide anything helpful for them and that it may indeed make their current situation quite worse. Usually, these kinds of people’s life journeys center around learning about intuition and learning how to listen to it, as their resistance is quite strong. However I must fully disagree with the statement, “Looking into myself will only make things worse,” “Medication is a bunch of bogus,” “I’ve tried that before and nothing happened” or any variant thereof because of the nature of the argument itself.

If someone goes into a meditative state while “doubting that it’ll work” they probably will not grow in this area of life because the doubt is actually an intention. And, of course, if you intend to make something work (or to keep something from working) you will be as diligent as possible to produce your desired outcome, consciously and/or unconsciously. You have more power than you suspect :). 

It may seem strange that a doubt is the same as an intention, however, the word “doubt” and the word “intention” have the possibility to point to the same felt experience which can be aptly named “maliciousness.” If “maliciousness” is prominent (either consciously or subconsciously) within an individual their doubts and their intentions must consciously be separated from one another in order for their maliciousness to become realized. Once this is done intuition may flow freely if the individual consciously gives it any level of prominence in their conscious mind.

We’ve probably heard this before, but maybe we haven’t; as soon as you consciously decide to live a meaningful life you have taken the first step towards living a meaningful life. This is done by thinking the words, speaking the words, writing them out… “I choose to live a meaningful life.”

It’s usually a quiet choice with little involvement from other people, and from then on you’re searching (whether consciously or unconsciously) for meaning.

This is when you begin to separate the wheat from the shaft… “I don’t like my job because it’s pointless, but I do enjoy playing the guitar… Maybe I should do that more often.” This may go on for a while until you begin to listen to your intuition and do the things/be around the people that help you feel better about your life.

Once this goes on for a while the very thing that gave you life may now only give you suffering, and then it’s time to ask yourself what the next step is. “I used to like playing the guitar, but now I want to go into public speaking.” This can happen infinitely until a (or multiple) higher realization(s) takes place, one of which may be that meaning is an end result of listening to your intuition. 

This is an important realization because at this point you will have felt meaning and gone back to your old ways. If this happens then the realization that intuition can guide the way back to the feeling the answer is relieving since the path is known once again.

And That’s It!

I emphasize this because “meaning” is simply a word that points to a feeling. The feeling itself can change, sometimes rapidly and sometimes over a long period of time, but it is simply an emphasized feeling. Trying to over-complicate it only leads you further away from meaning, and this is very important to know at all points throughout your life. 

This (quite short) post is a launching pad to start your own journey towards living inside of meaning. If you’ve already begun then I suspect these words will only be like music instead of an enlightening experience, and if you’re already there then I suspect reading this felt like a timeless void of bliss, just like everything else does. Have a great rest of your day!
