loc1
something that unfolds
loc4
there is awareness and things are arising
loc2lay2
i guess it was or the or five plus i guess you want to do
loc5+
like this is more important its saying your attention must stay on layer one
lay1
so i think you are getting youre at least getting a shift into the sort of combination of spacious emptiness and you know fullness and presence type of thing
lay2
i dont think youre going to have any issue being a highly experienced divorce attorney in location three
loc3
access to layer two
lay2
scanning my body
nfw
i think the anxiety is kind of a negative emotion that invades the emotionlessness also some in trying to figure this all out im interested in knowing to what degree this is influenced by trauma whether its avoidant attachment style it feels like a lot of this stuff is vulnerable to kind of pre trans fantasies so is this transcendence or is this just trauma you know am i am i checking out in a dissociative trauma induced avoidant attachment space or am i spread out across the universe how are they the same how are they the different different my own explorations of trauma is i hear from people that are close to me notably my wife that she thinks that i have lots of trauma in my system but when i go look for it or try to treat it i cant find it you know i can do emdr till the cows come home and it doesnt touch it which tells me well is it really trauma or not so you know im very confused about all of this so i just wanted to inject that into this space to
loc4
sunsets in location 1 layer 4 paint the sky not just with color but with the promise of renewal and the peace of the coming night
loc1lay4
layer 4 feels like absolute irreducible reality in which there is no state or condition nor any existent thing to which a state or condition could pertain
loc4lay4
doesnt seem correct
loc1
yeah it could be if you feel that theres a sense of something you know in your head or behind your eyes thats looking out and stuff feels like its out there rather than it all just being one field of experience thats just youre just showing up um that would be more like location one
loc1
however when asked to describe the details of their firstperson experience differences between them emerge even individuals who have studied and practiced their religion or spiritual system together in the same place for decades can arrive at different versions of fundamental wellbeing sometimes these variations can be more in sync with individuals outside of their tradition than those within it think of it this way there might be only a handful of people within a given tradition who experience location 4
loc4
if a finder does work at restoring some perception of layer 3 it can often appear extremely intense energetically at first
loc4lay3
you know youve had experiences that are and nonduality and all of that
tfwp
you know youre past the sense point obviously of layer two youre to the direct perceiving of layer two at various amounts of depth of layer two and even to the point where youre starting to get occasional periods of identity shifting into it and so thats you know a really good progression into layer two
lay2
so just just put it off for a little bit the location free stuff even if its for like a day or two or a week or whatever it is
loc3
expanding in all directions
loc2lay2
deeper into layer 4 in later locations the sense of unfolding diminishes until everything feels instantaneous and total
loc4lay4
doesnt feel empty or in the beginning it can feel like the emptiness is sort of infused with presence or beingness or fullness um some people might describe it as an aliveness but it doesnt feel empty any longer
lay3
no agency no emotion no divine
loc4
fullness presence
lay3
i am hoping so much to be deeper in fundamental being that im trying to daydream into it
tfw
im in layer two and im able to access layer one
lay2
location1 the sense of
loc1
it was pretty noticeable when we jeffrey did the sinking into layer two meditation that was more like distinct than my usual state
lay2
think of spaciousness all the time
lay2
seeing transparent shapes
nfw
it is possible that less detail or fewer memories are being stored
loc4
we do recommend that people go back and forth between 4 and 5 a lot to kind of build a bridge back so that they can have fluidity back to those earlier locations
loc5+
fear there because theres emotion there and emotion is
loc2
not layer one
loc2lay1
it is also known that this agency is its a false sense of agency in the system because its coming from from a mysterious it feels kind of unknowable
loc3
flatness
lay4
dual
lay4
by the time someone reaches location 2 a change in sense of self is very noticeable typically involving a dramatic reduction in or elimination of the conceptual narrativebased sense of self this change relates in part to association with the qualities of layer 2 or deeper rather than with the personal sense of self that is produced at layer 1
loc2lay1
basically you know some people systems inclined towards it some people systems dont inclined towards it um but its sort of smack on you know location two layer three type of experience
loc2lay3
yeah thats where the fear comes up if i can get over to location two layer two
loc2lay2
have enough introspection at location four and later to be able to cleanly answer those questions
loc4
layer three feeling permeates through that um and i guess the very act of investigating it also shifts my experience of it in the moment
lay3
happiness
loc3
something connected with maybe a feeling of settling in
lay3
i definitely i definitely feel so when im one one thing thats shifted recently is that is that like in the last probably six months is that i used to whenever i would get bug reports i would react to them pretty negatively um sort of in a fear response kind of way like oh i fucked up and like im going to lose my job and you know not that i was really seriously entertaining that but just kind of like there was a gut feeling like that and um a while ago i noticed that if i just treated them as scientific investigations um that i could do i could do all of my debugging from layer two instead of from layer one and that was so much more pleasant and also so much more effective because im not wasting any time like oh this is going to be bad theres going to be you know like all of this like reflective thought about like you know whats going wrong and what the implications of this is gone like forget it dont worry about it just do the debugging and so yeah i mean but you know i also feel like i mean ive had experiences of layer three
lay3
there is no looker or listener in my head anymore
loc2
planning
lay1
nonsymbolic experience
tfwc
deconditioning environment
loc4lay2
the fullness and so on um what happens in both cases both with the fullness and when i reach the more of a peaceful emptiness is um theres still a sense of an underlying field again like the self
lay3
you know its really sort of in a way using location two layer three in a very specific way
loc2lay3
zero interest in meaning or purpose
loc4lay1
in location 1 this layer will typically be experienced as everything just arising with a general sense of things arising as one but maintaining the perceptual duality of an observer subject here and everything arising there object
loc1lay2
because were talking talking about earlier about this peripheral and can be like a big peripheral sometimes where its where its a sense of almost like world mind body like a whole or universe mind body
lay2
it was the absence of triggers thats really what i noticed nothing would bother me anymore
loc4
later locations
loc5+
so no question in my mind you know that youre experiencing layer two spaciousness
lay2
so the reason i say mostly is because i have had deeper experiences of the nonduality so even the nonduality i feel now theres still because i have deeper experiences of it i dont know if probably deep deep location too because there was still a little agency or emotion or maybe just temporary elements of going further theres still my system just still sees that theres still that like within that nonduality theres still a duality
loc2
the ego or the annoying roommate in lay one is noisy busy and buzzing attaching to things like thinking emotion and strategizing
loc3lay1
spaciousness or im seeing this mistiness
lay2
sacredness or the divine
loc3
ones life circumstances assessing
lay1
you know how you describe layer two which is more like that field of nothingness the spaciousness
lay2
location 2 was the change in subject to object
loc2
location two layer two thing
loc2lay2
so theres been plenty of time for for a lot of deconditioning and reconditioning to happen even at layer one
lay1
thought is replaced by knowingness which is silent and selfevident
loc5+
i feel like youve been to location four in the past and that you came back from it for relationship reasons primarily in the documen
loc4
targeting the location two layer three sort of charmed life type of sweet spot in part to get a sense of sort of the magic that can really be in life
loc2lay3
doesnt prevent negative emotions from arising
loc1
i think maybe skip straight to the sense of fullness
lay3
emotional
loc3
layer two which is really you know that is the classical endpoint for so many systems and traditions that is identifying as the you know spacious empty presence of awareness um and feeling that you are that and are untouched by all experience and everything you describe is is really that kind of classical enlightenment in many systems
lay2
it would be around sort of the location two layer two type of attributes
loc2lay2
look for and find the sense that at the deepest
loc1
as long as you retain the ability to zoom in
lay3
and layer one
lay1
they can feel like a blessing is radiating out to everyone in their presence
loc3
because it feels it doesnt feel exactly like what i would call pure peace because sometimes i feel that too where its just you know inner peace and it doesnt feel like pure joy and it feels really good and and it feels in the family of happiness as far as my experience of emotions and what i term kind of the general family of happiness and good feelings and yeah just just just pleasurable and which is good so it seems to me like what you know quote unquote bliss is or should be it does have more im trying to like like right now it has more energy in it theres almost more it seems like theres more energy in it than really kind of just pure bliss
loc1lay2
location four it can be um like it can be harder for their system especially if theyve deepened there
loc4
so when i get triggered um so the sort of the triggers where im like pleading with reality to be different than it is that kind of trigger that um when its happening so when were at the house up in emerald hills one of the people that was there was talking about contracting around things and expanding outside of that which was a term that i hadnt really heard used before and that really kind of mapped well to what im doing right like when thats happening i feel like im just like shrink wrapped around whatever problem is happening and then yeah exactly and then the relief comes when i notice that im shrink wrapped around the problem which obviously is going to be happening from a perspective of layer two
loc1lay2
seeing you as this magical being
loc4lay3
approval seeking conversations
loc1
you could do that possibly maybe not maybe theres a sense maybe you stay in the shallow range of layer three and just start moving in that direction letting that stuff start to come up
lay3
location 4 finders report an even deeper sense of peace and wellbeing
loc4
i would say youre somewhere deeper in in location two layer three with that access to layer one
loc2lay3
imagining
lay1
deeply aware
lay1
fullness and whatnot of layer three
lay3
layer two is that spacious emptiness that all containing spaciousness and if youre really deeply rooted in it you feel that thats what you are
lay2
but didnt really have too much time to dig into that whole agency thing you might already be getting glimpses or have had glimpses of location four my guess is youll get temporary experiences of it doing this you know it wont just like be some jump over in you know tomorrow morning and some locking into location four so you can probably you know get some temporary experiences of it get some more experiences of it and start to get a feel for it and at least its more shallow form before it really sort of deepens and locks in
loc4
other stuff is sort of showing up in the nothingness
lay2
the fabric of community in location 1 layer 4 is strong woven from threads of trust support and mutual respect
loc1lay4
unfolding
loc4
pervasive
lay3
i can see the broadband
loc2lay3
nothingness always there
lay2
if you think about divinity as sort of a lower vibrational form of the celestial and you think about the celestial as a potential onramp for a for a very flexible system like yours but not in its lower form not in its mid range form i mean just in its highest most pure most transcendent form and so thats what you would really want to try to find and sink into and the experience of the divine if you wanted to play around with going to the to the celestial yeah be careful of the celestial you know from a relationship standpoint and stuff though of course because like your sex drive will drop off if that matters to your husband or something
loc2lay3
location three layer three maybe you experience again that you feel like you have a soul kind of thing or something
loc3lay3
instead of action being experienced as the consequence of thought and intentionality it feels intrinsic to the unfolding itself and is silent and selfrevealing
loc4lay1
