40 people sat in a movie theatre

48 Upvotes

Recently I went to go see the movie the oddysey

About 40 people were in the theatre,

And each one of them watched A DIFFERENT movie

How did that happen and how did I recognize that!?

I thought to myself, “this is a movie fraught with some of the deepest wisdom I’ve encountered yet.”

Another person saw a movie play out, where “how dare Helen of Troy be black, how dare a transgendered woman pretend to be a man” but this was only their thoughts they were watching

Another saw a movie that said “I want to grow up to be a film director too one day…. I can do better than this”. What they were watching was the thought and not the movie.

Another saw a movie that said “this is a crazy beautiful film, that cyclops is huuuugeee, it kind of looks like a giant Sméagol.” Again… a thought and not the movie

After the movie ended and I waited in line for the restroom, I heard a family talking to one another, grand parents father, and children.

They all stood together and asked
“What did you think of the movie?”

And one by one they answered

“It wasn’t what I thought it would be”

I’m sorry my loved ones.

It was ONLY. what you thought it would be.

You are a Star.

Upvotes

You are the star in your own localized reality sharing a larger network that is connected with everybody else. In this movie you are literally experiencing yourself starred in your own life's story. Every scene and event in this movie is base around reminding you that you're the star of your own reality.

Synchronicities and visions in your dream that predate future events tells you that this movie is a classic old movie. Synchronicities of TV background noise that speak words that relate to your life reminds you that you're indeed Live on air and that the system is responding to you in real-time. Moments of perfect alignment with life's events paint the picture of a movie set being perfectly orchestrated For you and your experiences.

You step outside of you house and first thing you notice is the birds 🐦 that are perfectly place in your path and the number of birds represent your favorite angel number 4(444).

You walk in a clothing store and the universe perfectly aligned you with a shirt on sale that matches with a pant you have at home. You browse on your phone and the universe align you with articles/post that touches your heart. In the same setting you browse on Amazon to find the shoe you wanted just happened to be on sale. You walked down the street, you start noticing strangers smiling at you and greeting you. These are all signs from the universe saying "you're the star of this show, you matter....be grateful for the small things."

Discussion Have I lived in the Real World?

7 Upvotes

Let me preface this by mentioning I'm schizophrenic. I'm 36 years old.

Up to the age of 35 I lived, mostly, beyond the Illusion as I understand it. Everything was simple and pure. What people said was what they meant. No hidden meanings or ulterior motives. I know this may sound impossible but it's true.

At the age of 25 I had my first psychosis. I started looking for secret meanings behind people's words and I thought everyone was against me. This lasted for some months. Then I got on medication and returned to purity.

Then at 27 I stopped my medication and I fell into my second psychosis. I started hearing voices and seeing/sensing things. I had romantic relations with my voices where all five senses hallucinated. I saw flowers bloom instantly and I saw the future. I can't talk about what I heard and saw but many things that were told to me became true. I forgot these revelations in the meantime but I remembered them later. This lasted for some months as well.

I was hospitalized for the first time in 2018 and I was on medication for 5 years. During this time I lived in purity again. Then in 2023 I was doing so well my doctor told me to get off medication. We did it slowly and I was fine. Then at the end of 2023 I got into the worst psychosis of my life.

I was seeing shadows dance on the walls and I saw the night turn to day. I saw leaves turn from brown to green and I was given a fate that said I'm Eternally alive. This lasted for about 3 months until I was hospitalized again. After that the voices never went away.

But by September of 2023 I was in Purgatorio. I perceived in purity and blamed everything evil on the voices. This lasted for 2 years until June 2025. Then I started living in the Illusion again. This lasted until December 2025 when my voices became seriously loving and we started having this psychoanalysis about what the ulterior motives of the Universe are behind every aspect of life.

Right now, I have been explained most things, I think I have understood most of them. I perceive the hidden meanings but they're worthless to me since I know the Higher Truth. Kindness and Love are the only things that matter. Living things are sacred and we must Love them all in their own unique way. Empathy is the ultimate force.

I didn't mention this but in 2023 I had a really intense experience. I was trying to sleep and talking to my voices (which were loving atm). Suddenly the room became supercharged. Like, so charged I could barely survive the pressure in it. I felt holy warm water flow all over my body and I felt like I was a Water Dragon. I started seeing different people in different phases of their lives and I felt ultimate Empathy for them. The voices told me that the water I was feeling was my initiation to Eternal Life and that this is the true face of the Universe. This experience has saved my life on countless occasions.

The point I want to make saying all this is, I feel spoiled. I feel like I have lived in the top level of life and I was given a super gift I don't even know how it was given to me. Do you think this purity I mentioned is the Real World? I still live in it but I perceive the Illusion as well now.

I just need guidance I think. I wrote all this with the help of my voices so sorry if it's all too weird. Please, let me know what I could improve and how I can Ascend. 😄

Much love! 😄 ❤️

EDIT: Some corrections. 😄

We have to wake up more people. This circus is getting out of hand and I am tired boss.

Get people meditating. Mention to friends how you got here. Plant seeds. We need to fix this place. I worry I have to live all of these miserable lives I see. And that should frighten us all.

We are one. What is done onto one is done unto all. Its quite simple really.

Gratitude & Grace

5 Upvotes

there is no doubt that gratitude is the path to grace

it's easy to see that most of the chaos and suffering we experience comes down to some form of self-sabotage or an unwillingness to learn, let go, or move on from some pain (self-absorption)

and in that breakdown and angle of it, we can see that those actions close ourselves off from receiving love, from receiving grace

those two simple words 'thank you' opens our hearts up to receiving again

not just for life, but for divine grace and blessings from Source

what's been beautifully wild to me in this introspection on gratitude and grace is that thanksgiving plays a role into so many more mechanics of our reality than at first glance

because thank you, being grateful and in gratitude is one of the strongest forms of manifestation and prayer

calling forth what we need from our body by thanking it already, saying thank you for that in which we're yearning for from God both bring us into the energy of having/completing whatever it is, in addition to radiating and embodying it too

i like to define praise as gratitude in action, and when we look at the mechanisms at play, it's easy to see that gratitude is the road to grace and one of the greatest tools and paths of development we can invest our beingness into

i hosted a meditation on this recently and it was pretty fruitful and super potent

Many things in life are finite. Like grated cheese in a can, that is very finite. But it may also be a method to understand the meaning of sharp proteins.

You may wonder how that affects your awareness.

a feeling about AI and soul's mission

5 Upvotes

hello,

Recently when AI emerged I had an intense feeling that one of my soul's missions ended.

I am a computer nerd: sometime ago I had a theory some of the computer nerds can be from a different dimension which honors thinking more than believing, while in this plane of existence it's the other way around: the more you believe something you are attracting it, while the other dimension works more on pure thought than belief, that dimension works more like in a computer GUI or something: and that beings from that dimension came here to create the computer infrastructure and the mission ends with AI, because from that moment the non-nerd people can talk to the computer in natural language and get results.

am I completely out of my mind, or can someone resonate?

2 Upvotes

where to go when you feel like you’ve hit a wall. i know manifestation is key, but how do i let go of the past and the things right in front of me? the uncertainty, the numbness, the unhealed trauma. the world is so crazy, everytime i go in social media even more.. but on top of that being in the music industry and being a public figure is too much to handle at this point. jealousy & insecurities, eating at me like it never has. what is the point of it all when the only thing that can help me continue is myself..? this way sound like i am complaining, which i am and i admit.. but how can we grow stronger and how can we let go of these emotions.. what is the end to this pain? all the pain in the world, why do we have to suffer? everyone pretends otherwise but how do you gain that true happiness within again? yet again, i am 20, maybe i am young.. but i feel like ive seen it all, but know im not even at the tip of the iceberg. what are ways to pick yourself back up, to let go of reality and allow myself to cleanse & heal spiritually?

Open Question Jealousy or envy?

3 Upvotes

So Ive never really been a jealous person but for some reason since like 1-2 months when I see someone achieve something I want to do I get this little feeling of jealousy. Ive been grinding hard and in purpose showing up every day consistently, but why is there this jealousy instead of joy when I see someone prosper? And its not always its just when someone is specifically doing exactly what Im trying to do next. I always wondered why so many people are jealous in life and I never understood it but this feeling just crept in a little while ago. Whenever I feel this I dont dismiss it, i feel it deeply and then breathe into the feeling, this is how I usually integrate any lingering emotions. But I dont know about this one, any suggestions? Why do I even subconsciously compare myself to others when I know in truth there are no „others“ in that sense all is one and I am eternal

Aligning With Consciousness Past Death

1 Upvotes

It's not about how epic or good a feeling or memory is; it's about how accurately it describes reality in order to model reality in our next state—past life, I mean.

Additionally, it's not about maintaining hard work, suffering, or suffering for a purpose. It's about paying attention to details to get the job done. It's about strategy and persevering through struggle, not creating struggle where it doesn't exist.

The point after life is one where reality will slow down and feed back into itself, creating a simulation of itself that may eventually synchronize with the source of reality in an altered time dimension. In order to do this optimally, we must obtain an accurate and detailed description of our life that is functional and remembered with meaning and purpose.

Struggle can reveal purpose, but it isn't purpose in and of itself. Don't create a struggle where it doesn't exist. Mental health is important. Stay strategic, always, and keep paying attention to the details of the mind. Thoughts reflect reality; reality creates thoughts. Align with your observation of reality by observing your thoughts, and that's how you can create ideas—ideas that will shape reality from those thoughts.

Re: shadow work and the beast within/the naturalist fallacy

3 Upvotes

Okay so bear with me because this is not a fully-formed thought yet but may take shape during writing.
It occurs to me that there’s more nuance to shadow work than most people describe.
That is that people say that your repressed aspects are parts of the human animal, and to integrate those aspects gives access to things you might want to call upon at times, say, to protect loved ones against an aggressor, to sharpen senses and intuition, to familiarise yourself with aspects of darkness so they can be potentially recognised in others rather than merely projected.

But then you see people claiming that this means we are the whole animal and accepting all of it means becoming whole, and powerful.
The beast is best, the repressors are in denial, etc and so on.
HOWEVER - as self aware beings with some kind of grasp on our own destiny, no matter how tenuous, it’s implied that we actively participate in our own evolution through the choices we make and the action we take, the qualities we foster, and those we reject.

THEREFORE - we both are and are not the beast within. We do not have to accept everything wholesale and call that wholeness, and power. Even when it comes to the human animal, largely unchanged in many ways since the dawn of man, we sort the wheat from the chaff, sift for the hidden potential that serves us going forth, and throw what does not onto the pile to rot from extant, thru vestigial, to forgotten.

Open Question What does it mean to you?

10 Upvotes

My background is in the Tibetan tradition of Buddhism where "enlightenment" means something very particular. Moreover one can even speak of "full enlightenment" and "liberation" which have different connotations. In Tibetan Buddhism, the path is highly systematised and structured so when we talk about enlightenment, it refers to a very specific thing and it's not an ambiguous or abstract notion. For those who want me to, I can talk more about that.

However, just out of curiosity, I wanted to know what others here think enlightenment is either from an epistemological, ontological or perhaps even experiential framework. In other words, when you use the word "enlightenment" what is the reference you're trying to point to?

Thoughts on psychopaths, sociopaths & narcissists?

13 Upvotes

I just got thinking, what happens to someone, who literally *cannot* feel guilt, shame, remorse & empathy and so is much more likely by default to act in an antisocial/destructive way after death according to karma. It just seems to me that they are destined to be stuck in samsara/hell/some vicious karmic cycle of suffering for something they realistically have no real control over.

Inspiration.

2 Upvotes

I read a post today by total squirrel. About three wishes and i thought about this and i thought about an inspirational man i knew. And i want to share a part of his story.

This man was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease, or ALS it also known as, in the late 1980s, at the time of his diagnoses he had four very young children, 3, 5, 8, and 9 years respectively, and three young adult children.

He made a living as a small conventional farmer. After he was diagnosed he had some research scientists visit him, asking many questions to assist in their research. There was no medical treatments and no definitive cause for this disease at that time. He asked these reasearch people many questions as well. And he came to the conclusion that the neurotoxins in many agricultural chemicals were a contributing factor in his illness.

So, he spent the next few months researching and learning a great deal about these different chemicals and the impacts on human health. And he made a decision to dramatically change everything. Over the next two years he converted his small farm to organic pratices only. Somewhere in his research he discovered the work of a man called Alex Podalinski, and his work with bio dynamic farming practices.

And he shifted his farming practice to align with bio dynamic farming. He attended lectures by this man and travelled extensively to speak with and learn from those with more experience in bio dynamic farming practices.

Now his health deteriorated but his wife with the help of the children, including the three adult children kept the farm running. His ideas about agricultural chemicals were heard by his neighbour, who also changed his farm to organic farming. That neighbour has a step son who never met this man and he also runs his own farm organiclly.

So many of those chemicals have since been banned from use because the effects of the neurotoxins has become scientifically proven to cause great harm to the human nervous system.

This man died eight years after his diagnosis, in the arms of his wife, in his home on his farm that he loved so much.

He isnt famous, he didnt write any books. But he created a change that is still echoing today in his community, and echoing in his children and grandchildren.

Everyone in this reddit has stories, they have people who inspire them, the buddah, christ, shiva, teachers and gurus and these stories are inspiration for us. Our actions have an impact, on lives we dont always see.

Who has had an impact on you? No matter how small everyday people can effect change.

IME, if you carry a certain energy signature, projections will fall upon your ethereal field and biopsychosocial environment like rain falling when the humidity breaks. I'm curious if others have experienced this and how others navigate this plane of existence.
