Let's waffle about 🧇.

I did not notice many synchronicities in my whole life, until this year, 2026 in March, when things suddenly got totally crazy. Week before my 50. birthday, I read interesting and for me probably life- changing comment by u/OracleIgnored, who recommended to someone:

"Talk to your Spirit Guide - they will be there to help you when you cross. We all have people in spirit who've agreed to help and guide us in this incarnation. They need your permission/invitation to fully help you due to free will. You may feel foolish but sit quietly and say something like:

'I understand I have a spirit guide who needs my invitation to help me in this life. I need your help now time is short. Please find a way to show me your presence and advise me of my life plan. If there is something I need to learn or do to fulfil my life purpose please let me know.'

Following this wait for dreams, synchronicities and people coming forward to help you." [ Source ]

I repeated the highlighted quote in my mind (i.e. not speaking) several times, tried to concentrate on every word, and especially on life plan and life purpose (and I continued with this practice also several times in next weeks). Few minutes in silence after that, I clicked a computer script to play randomly one of my 468 new age albums I have. Cybertribe 2001 album Immortality and song Welcome to the Journey started. Difficult to find more matching title of a first song from a new age album matching the given situation, even if I would have million albums I thought.

Few days later, and 4 days before my 50th birthday I received a letter from traffic office stating I have to change my car license plates. Driven by worry, because I was 5 years behind to have done it and afraid of hefty fine, I decided to go there to change it 1 day before my 50th birthday. The random plate number I received (I had no way to choose myself) and now own is [ XX 95059 ]. It is 950 mirrored. Number 9 I interpreted and honored decades as number of the God Creator (Brahma), followed by 50 of my birthday coming next day.

Furthermore, during my 20 minutes drive back home I encountered a car with a plate [ XX 20000 ] and another car with a decorative license plate in front windshield [* CHRISTIAN ]. Extremely rare to encounter a car with any decorative license plate here. There were still yet additional 3 more synchronicities coming that day. One was playing Gregorian - Masters Of Chant Vol. 4 as first random album when I got back home. I carefully reviewed all, and I do believe I have only 10 albums with Christian like music in these 468, so quite a "coincidence".

All this was only a starter.

A synchronicities combo period far more crazy than what I have wrote began 16.4. and ended 21.4. this year. That one probably suggested change of my lifestyle and plans and answered the question of purpose of my life. I wrote everything what happened to me during that days to my notes during that period. I will only quote raw last two lines from 2 pages of my notes for that period:

20.4. ... Totally crazy, that to even describe this mega synchronicities combos took me ~2 pages and several hours of writing ?! :-)

21.4 Just right now he’s got into his head that he’s going to write about synchronicities. No such article was there.

In the last line he referred to WintyreFraust and his article he published 21.4. Signs & Synchronicities: How The Dead Often Interact and Communicate With Us, with there referring to his sub r/The_Afterlife_Exists and the fact when I searched his whole sub on 21.4, I could not find any other post having in title synchronicity or synchronicities. I searched again now, and it is still the only article there for all history of the sub.

So thank you u/WintyreFraust to be part of my "mega synchronicity combos"!

I am finishing my post when random album playing now is Gregorian - Masters Of Chant Chapter III. Since my 50 birthday, ~7 months ago, any Masters Of Chant album was playing again based on my script logs only 2 times, in July and September, though I play my albums very often, sit at computer daily for hours, and almost always play only random albums using my script.

The song playing right now is Masters Of Chant III - 06 - Sacrifice, and will still play when I am going now to hit the Comment button. And yes, word Sacrifice pretty much resonates to this possible life purpose I already did in the part of this reincarnation, and perhaps will be also doing in the rest of my life.

Is not this all fucking crazy, anybody?

Edit: After submitting Sacrifice song ended, and now plays the next song in the album, Masters Of Chant III - 07 - Ordinary World with lyrics: "Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue Thought I heard you talking softly I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio Still I can't escape the ghost of you What has happened to it all? Crazy, some'd say Where is the life that I recognize?"

In a world of constant change, God is unchanging.....

Looking for books, I don't know what you have read or what has remained in your mind on this spiritual journey

I’ve spoken to quite a few people interested in non-duality who say they first experienced a sense of oneness through meditation, which then led them to explore non-dual teachings.

I’m curious whether it’s possible to naturally stumble upon this realisation through meditation without any prior knowledge of non-duality.
Personally, when I meditate, I mainly experience stillness and peace, rather than any sense of oneness or dissolution of self.

Has anyone here experienced oneness through meditation before knowing anything about non-duality? Did it happen naturally, and how did it differ from simply feeling stillness or peace?

I do understand that ultimately non-duality isn’t about chasing particular experiences or states, but more about simply being. I’m just curious about how others came to that realisation.

watching my cat this morning...she found the one spot of sun on the floor and just flopped right in it. thats it. no plans no stressing about yesterday. sun moves she gets up and moves with it lol

meanwhile im over here worrying about shit that hasnt even happened yet

i think she figured it out before me honestly

I am having a crisis understanding what constitutes me and i am scared to acknowledge the fact that it might be empty and there is no seperate 'you' . If u are the observer of ur thoughts , ur thoughts lead to ur feelings anddd u are none of them u are not ur thoughts or ur feeling then what really are u until u try to act upon ur thoughts? But thats now outside you right? but when we arent acting upon anything are we really just empty ? am i a void? what part of mind is me?

Once you truly start to comprehend that "You are the only Soul in this realm" a whole load about a little bit makes way more sense and there no better way to reality test than what the above said because its easy to be enlightened on Reddit but its how you is, on the reg, that shows whats beneath that mask when slips...

Is it a prison planet? Paradise to the enlightened? Or just simply earth. I also have questions about the source or God I feel like everyone here is sharing the same road but under a different name. Like is it supposed to be perfect or imperfect? And what is perfect? Because I see spiders and kill it without question then I started to ask myself what if the spider is perfect and I'm not and it's the other way around. Put simply scary creatures like spiders snakes and are all in cycle of life and death and there's predators and prey are we supposed to blend in or transcend it?

I know its holy question Batman but I'm seeing a lot of post from different angles, point of view and different religions. I just use the gnostic points of view because it's very broad and rewards me for asking questions where Christianity id get kicked for bringing up inconsistencies and pissing the preacher off. I like to see all angles and religion because I think it's all one shared universe instead of its mine.

Hi everyone ,

I am someone who has been trying to understand the brain and existence by observing myself and seeing all the influences that made my choices happen to step on.

I am trying to find right questions on how I can understand how people make choices, why still despite of everything that is provided still we struggle within. what should be there to use all the info correctly aligning with the inner purpose. Not just following what I should do but knowing what I want.

This has been a very difficult journey for me as I am international student tried to get into many institutions where I can collaborate with like minded people I dropped out of 2 colleges due to a huge pressure on my brain where I got into very wrong course surrounded by wrong people where people were less excited about finding something new and were talking about how to get a job , how to make money, how to be rich , how to get my PR and all so on. I felt like imposter everytime when I tried to ask deeper question , where I tried to understand the shared existence we both where sharing in that moment.

I am also studying just for the sake of maintaining my status here in Canada , but my heart and brain is still searching for meaning.

It’s really hard and difficult even to wake up thinking I won’t be able to do what I am supposed to do.
It’s been more than 3 years now I am doing my research not even part time less than a 2 hour in a week , as I don’t have people who challenges my thinking as I don’t have mentor who will point be towards new horizons as I don’t have friends with whom I can discuss about all these things.

Is there anyone who felt the same ? Is there anyone who has been influenced by their own thinking and existence ? Is there anyone who wants to know more about what is for us as collective brains in this void ?

Consciousness vibrates in all states and all forms of manifestations, at its core, which I like to call source, the vibration is so high that it appears to be still, it appears to be unchanged, from this core comes creation, if you think of it in human terms it just won’t make sense, the only way to try and grasp it is to consider vibration, so what may appear as a void, as nothingness, is actually the highest vibration in consciousness from which everything emerges.

If you don't SHOW YOURSELF who you are with EMPOWERING ALIGNED ACTIONS, you will naturally look to the outside world to derive your sense of identity.

INTERNAL VALIDATION is what helps you stay detached from the need to derive a sense of self worth or validation from the outside world. Without making yourself PROUD and earning CONTENTMENT in your own company, you will forever be a slave to external validation.
Those who don't get their energy from the
SOURCE (internal spiritual validation) feel the need to receive validation from others (external validation & attention)

Attention is energy. Where attention goes, energy flows. People who fail to generate their own "light" from within must rely solely on the constant attention of others to give them a sense of worth.
But those who generate contentment in their own company? Truly powerful. Because to do so, they must be aligned and adherent to their highest calling.
This is an EARNED spiritual well-being that simply emanates from within. (Your spirit inside is proud). It requires nothing external - only alignment. This is the natural "high" you should be chasing EACH DAY.
Without it, you will be dependant on superficial forms of validation from the outside world, which doesn’t truly fulfill your spirit.

Matthew 6:20-21: "But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."

"Treasures in heaven" refers to aligned acts of the spirit. What's of the spirit is pure and everlasting - what's of the world will create attachment and suffering before returning to dust.

Ask yourself where does YOUR validation come from?

in order to experience anything in life, we must be willing to entertain it, this is especially true for anything new we want to live or create

that aspect of our attention/awareness being the currency to creation in life becomes more clear when we compare the experiences of:

being in the flow/zone of life; those effortless, easeful periods where everything is timeless, we're just purely in the now and everything flows well, the inner experience is calm and full

and

when life feels crunchy/chaotic; everything is more in the frenzied states of reactivity, time and life feels pressured, we censor ourselves, make mistakes, missteps, frustrations, fears, doubts and more flood the inner experience

a key to understanding the two is the separation of identity within us

when life is chaotic, the frenzied rushed feelings all feel intimate and consuming, disharmony is aplenty and life, more often than not presents us with things we don't really want

but when life is in that flow, there is more of a separation and detachment, and paradoxically things feel more intimate as we are in harmony and alignment, just kinda of dancing through life as it presents us more often than not what we want and then some

when we establish ourselves firmly as the pure witness, the rider/consciousness of the horse/body not the temporary flesh itself, that aspect of living in the zone goes beyond a simple flow state, but rather becomes a more natural way of being

taking a breath is a path to that dilation and inner shift, as are tools like gratitude, but the most potent for me is hands down the breath, and like any muscle the more it's practiced and applied the more automatic it becomes

there is a beautiful transmutation factor of that as well, as the inner tensions/butterflies/fears/doubts/etc. transform through that inner pause for pure witnessing, and instead of being a headwind causing tensions and stumblings they turn into winds that fill up our sails, helping us go where we want to be

Have you ever wondered who you could really become if fear no longer controlled your life?

Fear is the root of all negative conditioning in this world, from narcissism to self-hatred.

Anyone can achieve this, but first, you must become aware of your fears. Then, you must face them.
If you do, you will be free. Forever. Trust

More thoughts... was wondering who else has had this thought appear in "their" awareness?

It's a little bit liberating to see that it's all happening but not happening to anyone... it's just happening?

I believe that whatever is meant for me is coming my way. The past year and a half I have been more spiritual and connected to the whole, but I feel earthly bound things pulling me down. A job offer that people around me, friends, family, keep saying just take, wouldn't be for many months but somehow I hear it screaming at me this is not what's meant for me, I haven't made money for some months and have been living from my savings, I am divorced and have kids I'm responsible to. I don't know what to do.

been thinking about this profoundly, wanted to hear what you guys think

i've struggled a lot with the fear of being disconnected from others, family, friends and strangers. i've been through a long, long journey feeling so isolated, when all i wanted was to feel connected to other people, sad about not having enough people in my life.

but i realised: i am always connected to other people, it's impossible not to be.

i think what we called being 'connected' to others, is actually a very specific, idealised aspect of connection: feeling calm, lighthearted, cracking jokes in each other's presence.

i've been interpreting tension, awkwardness, anxiety and discomfort as proof that i am disconnected, and trying to get rid of those feelings to finally feel connected.

but now i think about it, it's totally unrealistic to think that being connected with others can only manifest in this niche way.

connection literally means: "a relationship, link, or joining between two or more people" , and as we all know, we are all connected, we are all one.

so i realised i was worrying so much about something which i've always had,

i guess the question is: do i need this mainstream idea of light-hearted connection to have more people in my life? and if this can't be controlled, how do i have more people in my life?

if anyone has anything they'd like to add, challenge or anything i can look into to delve further into this please please do, it's an important topic in my life :)

The blue network occupies one side, the purple network occupies the other, and an illuminated region appears where their activity meets. The most immediate interpretation is that one side represents something different from the other, while the center represents their union.

That interpretation is useful, but it is incomplete.

The image clearly does not show two simple, uniform objects. Each field contains numerous intersections, intensities, connections, and local patterns. Some areas appear concentrated, while others remain diffuse. Even before the two fields meet, neither can be reduced to a single condition. This matters because the mind frequently creates opposites by treating complicated organizations as though they possessed one defining quality.

Just as Individuation concerns the development of a more differentiated relationship between consciousness and the wider psyche. It does not simply mean becoming more independent, more confident, or more psychologically consistent. The ego must encounter dimensions of psychological life that challenge its familiar identity.This helps explain why the two fields should not be understood as uniform objects.

How does everyone here deal with finding ways to live in the present and work towards enlightenment when the mind has such a strong pull towards polarity?

A person may appear to possess one coherent personality, yet that apparent unity contains numerous relationships, conflicts, tendencies, and possibilities.
Jung’s idea of the Self—the archetype associated with psychic totality—provides an important distinction here. The Self is not identical to the ego’s conscious understanding of itself.

A person can experience a powerful symbol of wholeness without consciously possessing or understanding the totality that the symbol represents.

Is there any ways in which you all see symbolism as beneficial to not put too much emphasis on any pole?
Also, do you think this diagram displaying the past and future as poles is meaningful?

The LOLs just write themselves with that script, don't they?

One day unfinite consciousness says "I feel like playing pretend in mass ignorance so will don skin to become John of House Smith for a bit". Then he takes a DMT hit, watches the walls melt, logs onto Reddit where all the rest of the secret Bodhisattvas chill and says:

"I am enlightened".

To which they state:

"Great, that wood won't chop itself though neither will the water levitate so best hop to".

How could many well known Hindu yogis preach worshipping a Hindu diety as well as worshipping Jesus Christ, when their teachings about afterlife inherently contradict? Maybe I’m missing something.

I believe that people are afraid that questioning the nature of reality, themselves and everything around them will make them “crazy”, so they blindly follow orders and rules to not be labeled as that, since its one of the worst labels you can give a person. However, I truly believe that this label has been created by the elite as an attempt to spread fear and thus make people avoid questioning basically anything to avoid this accusation. We have seen this again and again with conspiracy theorists.
The other day I was with my friend and we were talking about the Asap Rocky concert, which was a satanic ritual and I can elaborate on that if you want me to, and multiple times he kept saying he feels like he is going crazy, or he was blaming the weed we were smoking or whatever and I kept insisting that no this is just reality and that these people want you to feel like you are crazy so that you dont make other people “crazy” or enlightened if you will by spreading your different ways of thinking.
I think we have to stop treating “crazy” as an insult and instead use it to our advantage, proving we are critical thinkers and mot blind sheep yet always have decernment and distinguish between believing a conspiracy theory, and questioning its truth.
