There’s a couple of answers that come to mind for this. For one, it’s not real. It is all imagined. So source is not essentially affected because there is nothing to be affected by. It’s like playing a video game and dying over and over again. There isn’t anything actually being hurt or dying or being killed over and over again. But of course, it goes both ways… nothing is true/everything is true. So, so as long as something is being experienced, that makes it real as well.
Source is non judging. So ‘suffering’ isn’t actually suffering. It just is. It’s just an experience. It’s just an energy. The same energy as ‘love’ and bliss and unity and light is the also darkness/suffering/death. So as source, being able to percieve ‘suffering’ from this perspective of non-duality makes it not ‘suffering’. Makes the feeling illusory. Makes source not… affected.
But the bigger reason why I even mentioned oneness in the context of entities is cause of this… when you are in source state, whatever tries to attack you, immediately attacks ‘itself.’ You become a mirror and whatever sees you, sees itself in some form. It just doesn’t really work or make sense at that point.
And you really don’t even need to be in source state for this to occur in some form. The surrender to the perception of it is often enough. Entities/beings you can’t see tend to exist more in the mental realm for you. And so your perception really is everything in your interaction with them and if you are percieving something as yourself, it’s harm towards you becomes harm towards itself.
And honestly, this just becomes in general. That state of being is a state where you become like a mirror that reflects light in all the environment/collective consciousness around you. It’s that thing we’ve all spoken about quite a lot of how enlightened beings raise the vibration of the world naturally. So the more you emerge into that state, the less opposition you attract.
It’s all hard to put into words really but I hope that made some kind of sense. I’ll get back to that in my next post as I have more thoughts on all this.
Why should accepting something delete your past ‘negative’ experiences? The problem with acceptance here is keeping with the perception that something is ‘negative.’ That is a very human/dualistic way of percieving the world and continues to bound you to feeling ‘something bad happened to you’ that you reject and don’t want to ever happen to you again. That isn’t acceptance.
Accepting negative experiences or negative things in general, is to accept they exist. Accept they have their place in the universe. Accept it as energy. It just is. It isn’t negative/positive or anything. Any judgement of it makes it separate from source. And so as long as we keep categorizing certain experiences as better or higher than others, we continue to separate divinity from itself. Oneness really genuinely means… all is one, one is all. All negativity/positivity/darkness/light/ is one.
I may be wrong but from your writing, I do sense you still have quite a strong afflcition to ‘negative experiences and things’ and from what I’ve learned, so as long as we do, we are still bound to duality and will continue to swing back and forth of the pendelum of reacting ‘negatively’ or ‘positively’ to life. The goal is to dissolve the reactionary self and just ‘be.’ That way, we don’t automatically react in any way to anything and are more free to choose the way we react and behave in the world. (I’ll also talk more about this in my next post)
The thing is, there is no distinction between your younger self and your present self. You have always only been your present self. The you that you are right now is the you that you have always been. I’m sure you know that time is not linear. It does not exist. The whole spectrum of all that you are is here now. So you can give that love and acceptance to the present you that experienced those ‘past’ things and it would still be the same as if you were doing it now.
Ahhhhh, dream had a better way of putting that into words than I did as we literally had a similiar conversation recently. I did my best so sorry if I was confusing there.
The meaning of acceptance is living with these parts though. I’m a bit confused with how you percieve acceptance. Can you explain more as to how you perceive it?
The reason I say I’m a bit confused is that acceptance is feeling okay about what happened to you or what exists or anything for that matter. It is becoming neutral about it and essentially being at peace with it. So as long as you reject what’s happened, that thing becomes a wall along your path. So as long as you accept it, there is no wall and you can continue moving forward.
This goes back to source not being affected by it’s own ‘suffering.’ Whatever happens, happens and source keeps flowing. It’s like nothing happened. There is no attachment. There just is.
Anyways, if you can, please expand on your line of thought so I can better understand you. I enjoy these kinds of convos because honestly… it’s territory that never gets written about. The masters that reach oneness don’t ever write about it. They’ll show their students through just being ‘it’ and their students getting that state through being around them. Masters are the mirror to oneness.
It’s also extremely difficult for anyone to write about hence why whenever anyone experiences it, they tell you ‘you have to experience it to understand, there are no words for it.’ And honestly, there aren’t words for it but I think what I want to do along with dream is to start attempting to put it into words. It’s a challenging yet worthy endeavor.
