Fellowship of the Flurks

The last post was about synchronisation with reality using a visual cue. Now let's talk about something a bit spicier than just experiencing reality without constantly thinking about things whle you're doing it. There's no point in running both the processes of experiencing and analysis at the same time, since one process will affect the other one and put you out of synch.

Now, the method I've come up with and currently running is "short commands". Whenever I notice myself falling into thought, I'll give a short thought as to what I should do next. "Get up!" "Open that door" etc. The rest of the time you're just, through the "full view" observing what you're up to. The rest of the time you know what you should be doing, and if you've been stuck in thought for a long time, then just going into the full view and getting in synch is what you need to be doing. It's only through actually being here and living in reality that things happen.

I'll let you in on an experience I've had. At one point I was just sitting on my bed, thinking "I need to get up and go to work. Just get up, come on, I just need to get up and go to work. Come on, please. Get up now. Get up. Up." You can't convince yourself through thoughts alone to go do something when you've been sitting for five or ten minutes on the bed feeling like you're out of energy. The correct answer is "full view" and then adjusting the state of the body to the frequency you want it in.

You ever seen those "I'm gonna watch Drive (2011) to refresh my personality" posts, right? If you have trouble getting into a certain frequency by yourself, you can use external means to help your body assume the correct posture for the frequency you're looking for. One such, very powerful tool, is music.

Chips - Dag efter Dag

Put this one on, it doesn't matter if you understand the lyrics or not, the point is the feeling. Try to see how *deep* you can make your body feel this song, how happy you can feel, how loose your movements can be. It doesn't matter if you can't dance, since you don't dance, the music does, you're just letting go of the tight controls of your body and *allowing* it to start dancing to the rhythm and absorbing into itself the feeling of the song.

Your body *becomes* the music you listen to, so it doesn't matter what you are doing, do it to the rhythm of the music, and you'll start feeling the way the music does. The important thing is to FIRST try to feel what the music does with the body, without thinking, before amplifying the effect by getting your body in synch with the music. Listening through good speakers helps, but even with cheap earbuds you'll be able to feel *where* in the body the music is touching.

When you start 'embodying' music in this way, you'll start to notice that different tunes also have different personalities. Facial expression, style in moving the body and with it comes even the capacity to massively change the mental posture. Make sure you do all your listening while you've gotten in synch with your eyes already. Whatever the lyrics are, will also greatly impact your personality. This happens whether or not you are aware of it, so it can be a good idea to try different music out and see what it does to your body and your mental state in this way.

Now, you've got music to do this! Next is understanding that every external input has this effect on some level.

Now go out there and experience reality with greater capacity, using your entire body to feel things, rather than going around all day feeling the thoughts in your head, which, due to ignorance, get shaped by external factors rather than active decisions you make.

When you're more in synch, you'll also have an easier time seeing what it is you are actually doing, rather than what you *think* you are doing. If you're doing something that would have made you feel ashamed or disappointed in yourself when you were five years old, you might want to stop doing that.

I've had some trouble, and I still have some trouble, with the way I function and everyday basic things. I can't really put a name to it, but if you have the same issue, you'll figure it out while you're reading this.

First, if you have glasses, take them off, it's vital to get an undisturbed *full* picture, even if blurry. Next, look at everything in your field of view at once, if you have trouble, imagine looking to the left and right of your field of view without changing the position of your eyes. Splitting the focus to the furthest left and furthest right, you can even imagine your visual focus being on the sides of, or even behind your head, around where your ears are if it helps.

You might experience a visual motion like waves, wherein your eyes want to go back to "focused" looking at individual objects, which then gets counter-acted and pulled back into the full view again, don't worry about this. Holding this concentration at what you are looking at might take some effort at first. When you're doing this, your awareness will exist outside of your mind, and you're not looking at the thoughts anymore. Keep reminding yourself, keep focused.

Try going from full view to an object in the room and back again, you'll notice there is a different quality to the way you're looking.

The strength at which you can perform the "full view" will determine how *alive* the situation feels to you.

When you've got this first thing down, you'll be able to, through just looking, change the way you experience reality.

Being able to change from the reality of thoughts to the real world and back again easily, and in a non-habitual manner will be useful, since the full view focus is the first tool I want you to understand.

Practice moving your eyes around and "updating" the full view while you're going. It will look and feel choppy, since you'll see each frame "refreshing" until you can stabilize the frequency at which you do the updating. If you have trouble with this point, just keep your eyes straight forward and change the view by rotating your head.

Make sure that when you're looking, you're not just walking around looking for a suitable place to rest your eyes while you're thinking. The reason all this came about is that I noticed that this pattern occured in me all too often, sitting and waiting for the train or similar and "escaping into thought" to pass the time.

Now we get to the good part.

In engaging the full view, you can do so at varying intensity, try feeling "up and down" behind the eyes and adjusting full view strength until you find the frequency which is "just right". You'll know you've found it when it feels like you're waking up *into* reality from a long sleep.

Now, you want to incorporate the rest of your body in this. Imagine your eyes run at one clock speed and your body runs at another, you want to get your eyes and your body to be in synch, because you can *confirm* visually when you're in synch or out of synch with reality. The closer in synch you are, the more real reality will feel. When you were a child, your synch with reality was really, really top-notch, and if you can get really in synch with things, you'll feel a rush of comfort coming to you again, without losing any of the ability to think about things all day, should you choose to do so.

Now, do you remember how it felt when you were a kid and you were asking some other kid "Hey, wanna play?" and you were ON IT. Your entire body was in synch at a ready to play frequency. Most children also have much better posture than they do as adults in modern society, since we're not teaching posture in schools anymore.

The real trick is that, in order to change the way you experience realtiy, you simply make your body feel the way it would were it experiencing that reality.

Remember to keep your eyes in full view while you adjust the way your body is "interpreting the situation", or rather, the way you're adjusting the frequency of your body to come closer to reality. When you're in synch, you'll again feel a great comfort wash over you.
