Acceptance, Attachment, Forgiveness and Power

mmm I like it oh yeah I need it okay alright welcome to synchronicity that's one way to start the show I was trying to organize my shit I like I don't know what you guys use Twitter for do you use Twitter I use it and it's kind of just stream of consciousness quite literally so I I realize later in the week when I'm I have all these notes for solo cast questions and from people and I was like oh my Twitter I should probably go through that so I was literally pulling it up and then I was like oh I should go to do the intro the music was coming on so today's episode we'll see what I actually title it I know we're gonna deal with forgiveness I know we're gonna deal with acceptance I know we're gonna deal with attachment and non-attachment and I know we're gonna deal with power what else are we gonna deal with there's something else oh ekaros oh turning everything into a song that's what it is alright we're gonna get to all that under the umbrella of turning everything into a song there it is that's what I remembered okay so I don't know how many of you have done ayahuasca I have not everyone I know has my three and a half month old son Gabriel has done ayahuasca which is like I just look like a super fucking nerd like I haven't done it and if anyone is actually thinking that he's done ayahuasca and I'm like what the fuck fuck you of course I'm not giving him ayahuasca you only gets LSD so basically everyone if you've done ayahuasca you know there's a shaman shaman Dave maybe but whoever is singing in a car right these songs they pluck from the ethereal dream time space well here's the truth my friend you're constantly singing yourself ekaros you're constantly singing yourself songs of the divine if you listen closely you can actually hear it if you're able to actually express it in this world it doesn't even need to be a song it could be anything it could be whatever creative modality you're just expressing the truest and deepest part of yourself so how do we get there what what is the strategy for recognizing we want it like that sounds awesome I have magic songs in inside of me will you have every thought every pattern every habit every emotion that you're familiar with and comes up has its own resonance has its own frequency and if you're in like a resonance like if you if you think like maybe you're depressed or something like your song probably sounds like it's like some really slow monotonous not a great song I wouldn't even say sad or melancholy because like at least there's some resonant depth there like if you're feeling that but depression can just feel like real sticky and anxious it's probably just like a buzzing like a high pitch like that's not a fun song so if you can recognize that you can sing yourself songs of whatever you want and everything is a song in reality everything is music right we have to we'll break this down in an episode in a future one how everything is actually music there's rhythm there's tempo tempo there's melodies there's harmonies there's everything you can imagine dynamics timbre fucking everything it's the coolest music rules everything is that people are that but people think that it's ayahuasca people think that it's something else that it's the shaman that they're connected to something that they the person going through the ayahuasca experience isn't connected to you're a shaman to your list I'm not saying go do ayahuasca ceremonies for people you're not like a shaman like that but you're your own shaman you're your own guru you're your own god for real we're all connected we're all the same thing that's why I can say that totally confidently but that's really true and for people who have been experiencing recently I've been saying this like we're collectively going through something right now if you're listening to this but we experience it individually so we're like holy shit the world is changing what is going on I feel so different why is this happening and in reality like what's going on with me and everyone is kind of feeling like that right now they may process it in different ways and think about it in their own specific song way but is that the fucking cricket there is a cricket in here and honestly if you want to feel bad about yourself when you're doing a podcast with a literal cricket now I'm joking he's my buddy they swarmed the fucking garage there's nothing I can do anyway now he's singing his own ekato right he's singing his own song of sweet sweet sweet harmony so anyway we're trying to get into the state where you recognize that if you want to go do ayahuasca and experience that what an amazing modality that's like I'm gonna do it at some point I'm not against it but you don't need it and if you leave the place where you did it whether it's meditation Vipassana ayahuasca a great time with friends a vacation at the beach somewhere where you got away from a cricket that was constantly chirping when you're trying to record podcasts you don't have to be in the place where you want to fucking fuck this cricket this show is co-hosted by a fucking cricket now I can't find him he's sharpened like crazy isn't sharped all day and out in the middle of the episode and it's just gonna stay in here because I'm not gonna fucking double back and re-record this I'm gonna fucking roll this fucking cricket can people imagine who are listening to this I'll imagine this too you better believe it that this cricket leaves because he's been in like I don't know like four episodes and it's kind of you know listen I love you cricket a recognizer me stop chirping all right so I actually got up swept the cricket out of the garage also there was a cricket on my wizard staff this podcast is so fucking weird I will I was just I don't even know what to say let's let's get back we're talking about you're just gonna have to deal with me sweeping crickets out of my garage and discovering crickets on a wizard staff that I'm like half-made and I gotta get stones for and shit all right where am I found my page okay okay we're talking about the relationship between your mental diet essentially what Neville Goddard refers to is your mental diet and what you're seeing out in the world if you're thinking shitty things about yourself or the world or other people you will most definitely see that out in the world and you'll experience it and you'll feel it and people ask a lot of times like how do you do this thing like what if I can't do the technique right you're doing it all the time you're already doing it you just have to kind of notice yourself doing it be like hmm maybe I don't want to do that that seems to burden some and it's too hard recognize that this internal song you're singing yourself can actually easy just pick up the record player I know this is an old school hit pause on Spotify double click another song double tap enough tap once on a song your smartphone iPhone whatever and play another song and play a better song play when you actually like don't play like screeching or devil music if that's not what you're into if that's what you're into play that no big deal so let's talk about some ways to cultivate qualities that help cultivate qualities that help if I slip into to new age you just someone G check me for real on this stuff but really we're trying to help bring out stuff that makes it easier for us to recognize that we're all good like we're good and when I say we mean you like you're good and think I am you think I am good that's that's what we're trying to get to so one of the things has to do with unconditional acceptance we're familiar kind of with the concept of unconditional love a lot of people talk about that because it's a felt thing that once you get past the dual state duality that's what's there when people talk about non-duality like whenever you see these saints and mystics and people talking about it or from the past they're all happy and blissed out it's because they're sitting in unconditional love it's fucking amazing I used to hang there all the time I still kind of hang there but I'm more a little more tethered here because that's kind of where we're going but we're also still in duality so we have to respect that and recognize that not get too carried away but it is a real thing that's what's passed duality that's when Rumi is saying hey there's a field beyond right and wrong I'll meet you there you talk about unconditional love it's fucking awesome but unconditional acceptance is a little bit different yes it's unconditional love in a way but excuse me what it really is is just saying to yourself hey whatever comes up whatever desire comes up whatever thing comes up in my life whatever I feel I'm just gonna accept that and doesn't mean you have to stay with it you know what the like if a negative feeling comes up you don't say oh I accept this I'm just gonna stay like this you just let it come up you're able to get to the root of it and weed it out and find some way to deal with it imaginary or whatever thing you want to use to deal with it go for it but the key is acceptance and it's really tied into forgiveness that's kind of like a kind of like parts that connect to each other and forgiveness can be tough there are people in our lives who have done shitty things objectively you you know what I know it's just shitty things forgiving them can be very difficult I know in my life when I've had people like that it's been the hardest thing to do but then when you kind of fucking understand that you're creating and sustaining and maintaining this whole show you're the actor writer producer director all of this stuff you can really let other people off the hook especially if you have a strong imagination and this is something I've been telling people who are you can just see like they're creating their reality so hard and like this does bring up that if two people want the same thing or imagining they have the same thing the one who really believes it and feels it and imagines it more will do it so if one of those people like doesn't really believe they're gonna get it that's how it works so you can see people create crazy not comfortable situations for themselves with their imaginations and have no idea that they're doing it and that's just to be clear if you're in a negative situation that's what you're doing and yes if you open this up to the entire world you will begin to see that there is just they're suffering out there but you can be the person who actually changes that if you want to I spoke about this a little bit before so we're not gonna get too much into a tangent about the objective suffering that exists in the world let's start with us man stabilize your shit first then put on your oxygen first then and then we'll go help the starving kids and all the fucked up shit that happens in the world and the homeless people all that shit we're gonna do it don't worry I'm not forgetting about it so let's talk about attachment this is a alchemical secret here if you're attached to your desire and you carry it around not like a light fragrance but like a stinky ass fish in front of your face you're gonna be too focused on the thing to allow it to actually unfold in the world this also goes to if you're trying to imagine like this is what we do when we imagine stuff when we believe it when we feel it when we have faith in it we put our post in the ground in the future or in the past if we want to go in that direction but in the future put a post in the ground know that it's there trust that that's where we're heading and then forget about it if you try to do all the steps in between you're going to like you're gonna get caught up in in the means and that's not what you want to do like I spoke about this with Duncan on his podcast like you don't micromanage it doesn't suck the fun out of it in fact it makes it even more magical because you kind of know you're getting to this amazing destination but you don't know how that's fun that's super fun if I was like hey there's this movie and when you watch it it's gonna be the best fucking ending ever and there's gonna be all these points throughout the movie really holy shit that's fucking amazing you'd be like great yeah I'm I'm totally up for that but if I told you every single thing that happened in the movie all the way through you'd be like hmm that sounds good but it's not as good as actually experiencing it knowing something amazing is coming but not knowing exactly how it happens so that's what you're doing to yourself you want this polarity of like oh shit isn't the way I want it so you can have the desire come up serve to you be like oh shit that's coming amazing let it go still with you have faith that it's gonna come and then it inevitably comes and if you fucking get it for real and you appropriate states of consciousness like fearlessness and you know just a weakness and you're fucking good and you'll start it's like a cascading up leveling of consciousness and then you stabilize it that's the other thing like you it's it's great to glimpse this stuff the kencho moments but you want that's a tori you want to be able to stabilize it and again you pressure test yourself we didn't pressure test ourselves it would be not the great we want this to work in times of chaos and it's not that we crave chaos we can live in a world without that but you want to make sure you can just because like that's true like when we don't have bodies anymore when you close your eyes or when you die you don't want to be in control of yourself trust me I'll met so forgiveness and non-attachment are also very much related when we forgive ourselves or other people we're cutting that cord that kind of ties us and binds us to them and so people wonder like how do I get out of these relationships or with like narcissistic people or toxic people or like fucked up shit or just like whatever is going on or just someone you can't stop like looking at on Instagram it's like cut the fucking cord a stop comparing yourself looking at yourself you know negatively through their eyes they're just a mirror it's just how you're looking at through yourself but like just cut the fucking cord recognize it's you work on your own shit set your own destinations sing your own echado do your own mental diet on shit that you like and you automatically will heal that relationship it's automatic it unfolds naturally this is true I went through many many many years of kind of understanding this and not fully getting it but having had experienced it for a long period of time and not getting it and then forgetting it and then thinking I went crazy and then knowing kind of wasn't crazy once you get it and stabilize it and do it yourself and prove it to yourself that it's actually you you empirically tested you have I mean if this is real you have to be able to empirically test it and again what I'm essentially saying is you are God right any any metaphysical or our chemical or anything that has to do with a divine source that's you that is absolutely you it's I and I it's the Ross the Farienism thing it's big I and little I big I God little I know that is how you work that is how your world works if you start playing around with these techniques that I'm just dishing out and are available pretty much everywhere in a lot of different ways you will see this is how it works a lot of people use these techniques without not so much feedback again is like holy shit no I've been doing this my whole life but I didn't understand that this is how it actually worked it's like yeah me too so what everyone's doing so when you wake up to that and have that kind of aha moment that's the time to start bringing in these other I don't know helpers friends so once we kind of get into non-attachment which isn't detaching just non-attachment you're not you know what cut the courts all good do whatever you want once we really get good at forgiving other people and ourselves and I know it can be hard people sometimes are so annoying and sometimes we're so annoying just forgive yourself forgive other people it's fucking great it's like all the weights are just I don't have to deal with that anymore and like what we're really doing here is making everything a fun song so all the songs we're singing internally are fucking awesome all the songs we're singing externally are fucking awesome like that's what we're doing so that's important now let's talk about power because people shy away from power I think freak themselves out a little bit with power right yes with great power comes great responsibility it's pretty much all the responsibility but you get all of the power but if you're smart like there's this episode of Star Trek the next generation that's in a man it's one of my favorite shows if you haven't been listening to podcast you don't know that John Luke Picard data the fucking wharf Beverly Crusher smokes a lot of weed shits the best but anyway there's this episode where they find this alien race and this they're so powerful these beings are so powerful and they're in this feud with these other this other race of beings and these other it's like a big-ass war like people are dying it's fucked up but one of the races of people has the ability to basically control space and time and everything like everything everything in that dimensional reality where we are here and so at one point like the other alien race does some fucked up shit like really fucked up and the aliens with the powers get so mad he wipes them and every trace of their history and everything out of existence and Picard is like yo what the fuck dude like why did he's like I I got so mad and like he felt terrible and that shame and guilt and things that he was holding on to was just a reflection of him not being able to control this immense power so the reason power comes after non-attachment forgiveness you know unconditional acceptance and unconditional love is because you want to build up those muscles before you start flexing your power muscles and you see people flex power muscles all the time Donald Trump really rich people and like you see what happens to them they just get too caught up in their own shit and they flex these power muscles but they don't have these other qualities kind of like mastered and they just collapse their dreams into nightmares and they have to play it out on a public stage and they look like fucking assholes and who knows if they actually feel like assholes but like clearly there's a perception that they wish they wouldn't have looked a certain way and again it's their own and our own projections of who they are when those things happen so that's why we don't judge those people but this is what happens with power sometimes and people say well power is corrupting it's corrupting well if you don't know how to stabilize your own shit and recognize good intentions and aspirations yeah it's fucking corrupting because then you're having dealt with that shit your shadow stuff that like has it and like it's not even that it's wrong it's gonna teach you something and teach other people something so it's not that it's wrong it's actually perfect but the operative law here is it's gonna probably not be comfortable for you so power what do you do with all the power in the universe what would you do well you have it so what what do you want to do you start working on I think your base-level reality that's where most people start get your money your love your creative expression your family all that stuff really like stabilized and granted we live in a world that you know you can feel pretty tenuous it can feel like pretty unstable anything can happen at any time but you can get to a place of comfort you can get to a place of fearlessness trust me on that give it a shot imagine that but when you get there you start focusing in kind of tiered levels of goals so you could be like all right I want to reach these goals career wise I want to you know creatively reach these goals that's kind of your base level layer one individual goals then you have your collaborative goals oh well I'd like to help this person with that or work together with these people to do that that's your second level and then you kind of get to a third level the third level is like well let's identify problems around the world that we could maybe alleviate or make a little bit better especially if we know our imaginations create reality like why don't we do that so what I would recommend and I don't consciously write this down or think about but I've caught myself doing this is I do have different things and destinations that are based kind of starting with me and then like in the same way you do a meta meditation where you then expand to people like close friends and then other people and then the world like you do that but you set firm goals related to those things or firm imaginary acts that you feel and believe and then you use kind of like a meta meditation this unconditional love may all beings be safe happy but you say I am safe I am happy do it for yourself first and then we can actually start hitting those goals and achieving them and it's good it's magical I've already seen this happen just in like condensed periods of time like days and weeks and months and stuff like that I definitely know it works for years and decades time isn't real okay it feels super real we experience it real I'm not doubting that I've seen my kids grow up it's fucking obvious but it's not real it's this nexus point where everything flows out of and our human minds can press it down into the spectrum and we perceive it this way it's not real I know this for a fact if that's true that means you can basically jump up level through any timeline consciousness anything whenever you want and you can then stabilize it and use it for your own benefit and the benefit of other people so that's the purpose of the power that's why we have it that's why we use it people who don't fully get this will wield the same power but they will yield it kind of like a heavy sword that they can't handle like Arya from Game of Thrones trying to handle like you know want her dad and ice it's impossible she's too small she needs fucking she needs dagger she needs to be able to like boom boom so anyway it's a game of thrones for some reason but yeah that's it basically power is there you have it you have it all truthfully you have it fucking all how cool that shit I'm not even making this up I know it for a fucking fact right so this use it wisely practice non-attachment practice forgiveness don't be weird about it and like rigid and like I must practice forgiveness I must practice forgiveness that shit don't work it's not how it works you imagine it naturally happens you feel good about it it's pretty fucking easy promise you all right pretty good sized episode on this one feeling good about it feeling better how to cold beat that shit kicked it out you know sometimes they say cold viruses 5 to 70s fuck that fuck that shit I say two days tops maybe one cold a year with a toddler let's see how that holds up I'm with it though excuse me got new tarot decks tarot readings are open mixing in astrology with it having a great fucking time New York gonna be a cool event October 18th Whitma Whitma live calm check it out what else we have going on November I'm gonna be in LA doing cool shit with cool people I don't know that's not really an ad for anything but it's something that's happening that's it weeds good smoke weed if you like it let it bring up your shit check out other podcast on mind pod network haven't said that in a while go check it out Michael Donovan go tell Michael Donovan walking home podcast he's got a fucking change the mind pod site so I can easily add new mind pod network podcasters he's holding my shit up go yell Michael Donovan is my advice this is like a good episode I think all right that's it happy imagining I will see you in a day or two or some other time house outperformed with your horn don't be without man coming down you stabilize it with the sellers from the heaven when the
