Beyond the surface-level ideas we pick up along the way, what are core convictions you hold closest to your soul? Whether it’s a spiritual law, a profound realization about human nature, or a personal code that anchors you through everything…whatare your ultimate, non-negotiable beliefs?

I believe in the infinite.
I believe that as a human being, there is only but so much of the world we can see and too much of the universe to even imagine.
I accept my knowledge is limited. That these eyes can’t see it all. And so, I embrace every possibility. I allow my mind to be open to everything while not closing it to anything.
And i choose to lean towards what most resonates with me.
I currently believe in oneness. We are all the universe experiencing and expanding itself through every perspective possible.
I believe it because everytime I stretch my mind to its edges through meditation or psychedelics, this is the truth I experience. And for thousands of years, the same feeling others have used all too many words to describe.
But words can only do so much. It is a real thing. And it is an experience accessible to every human being.
Whether it is a hallucination of the mind or objective reality, I can’t fully say. I know nothing remember?
But believing oneness, has only better allowed me to embrace the world for what it is. The good and the bad. Beautiful and ugly. It’s allowed to me to have compassion for every single person and living thing on this planet. It’s allowed me to meet the world with love.
Because that in essence, is what I believe in. Love. It is my energy. It is what I lean towards even in the darkest of moments. It is my light.
Love. Always love.

I was just reflecting on this earlier, and it simply is not possible for me to ever abandon God; the Christian Gospel (at least for me personally) is undeniably true. And that is a splendid thing!

I unconditionally believe in reincarnation.
I believe that human life is a school where we correct our past mistakes and acquire new knowledge, and a karmic teacher is called upon to keep order.
It can’t even be called faith, because being born into an atheist family, I’ve never doubted or wondered.: “Is it true what people say about God, about subtle, invisible planes of existence, about reincarnation?”
Somewhere deep down, for as long as I can remember, there has always been the knowledge that physical reality is only a small, visible part of something much bigger.
As one wise man said, “Faith is intuitive knowledge that not only awaits confirmation from experience, but also leads to this experience.”

Wise words…
Much agreed though. I also believe in reincarnation. If we are eternal souls, there is far too much to experience and too learn that just can’t fit into one small lifetime. Having experienced ‘no time’ pure states of consciousness as well… I can certainly see myself eventually wanting to inhabit a phsical body at some point or another while not having a body.
The free flowing weightless existence is amazing but the human mind really can’t comprehend what eternity is lol. Eventually there is more to learn and grow from and I’d grow bored as purely mind.
But yeh, in general, I do believe I’m a soul expanding itself through each life I Inhabit. I am sure I also learn a lot outside a body as well but I see the appeal of the challenge of existing in a blank slate of a physical form. I can feel how it stretches the soul. Dang though, sometimes I think though… the human experience is rather brutal though.
We’re all pretty badass for going through with being a human being. This is a pretty hardcore game. So big ups to everyone playing this lol.

These words belong to Sri Aurobindo.
Here are two more quotes from his book “Thoughts and Aphorisms”:
- “Inspiration is only a narrow stream in the vast stream of eternal knowledge; it surpasses reason to a greater extent than reason exceeds the certainty of feelings.”
- “If you have a great goal in front of you, and your possibilities are limited, act anyway, because only through action can your possibilities increase.”
But there is a way to feel the essence of these statements even more deeply:
1. You open the book “Thoughts and Aphorisms” by Sri Aurobindo, which is divided into separate statements, so it is ideal for this.
2. You read an aphorism, then you take a pen and copy it onto paper. Without thinking, without analyzing, you just rewrite it word for word.
3. You put down your pen and reread the rewritten text.
This reveals the deeper meaning of what the author wanted to say, and which were not noticeable at the first reading.
Sometimes get so immersed in the text that you enter a kind of “stupor” and have to take a break.
If you decide to try it, then be prepared for the fact that when working with text in this way, a powerful downward flow of energy opens up.

well, I can’t help but quote
Everything you see, know, love… Everything you believe in… Is just an illusion. The main rule of Reality is not to get confused in your illusions.
from Architect of Reality
lol.
However, it can be interpreted in various ways.
For me, it means that believing in any finite concept is an illusion/ignore because the true nature of reality is formless and boundless (infinite).
Of course, that also means there is the highest expression of that infinity aka God.
God has two aspects simultaneously, an impersonal aspect and a personal aspect. The supreme personality of Godhead is just as real as the impersonal radiance of Godhead.
The manifest world is like a dream and God is the dreamer. The dream changes but the dreamer does not. Because the dream’s essence is the same as the essence of the unchanging dreamer, a dream character may realize the unreality of the dream and start identifying as the dreamer.
It usually goes like devotion to true Self (God), dissolution of false identity, attainment of self-realization (becoming divine).
lol. thanks for the praise. I’m just another seeker trying to navigate my way to the truth. Let’s hope I’m onto something, but what I learned is that always being open to being wrong is very important too. An open mind is a prerequisite for growth with minimal discomfort.
I’m gonna give it a try when I get the chance and report back on it. Words I read resonated with me and I can tell they came from that intuitive creative part of the soul. I don’t know what it’s called but quite often when I am inspired and creative, it starts to feel like I am channeling thoughts. And I’ve come to realize over time that…everyone does this. Randomly taps into that universal stream of creativity that is flowing all throughout the world at all times.
Funnily enough, years later after realizing this, I read Rick Rubins ‘Creative Act: A Way of Being’ which basically says that creativity is a universal flow that you tap into. If people don’t know who Rick Rubin is, he is perhaps one of the greatest music producers of all time with many classic albums under his belt. Interestingly enough, he doesn’t even really know how to play music or play at all… He just listens and is more intuitive/feeling based.

One poet (I won’t mention his name) said that he never “made” poetry. The poems themselves came to him in the form of a vibration/ concept, and the poet’s talent lies in whether he can quickly, while this insight is pulsating in his mind, translate it into a mental language without distorting its essence. If the poet succeeds in this, then lines are born that deeply touch the souls of readers and remain in their memory for a long time. If not, then these are just quatrains that are forgotten soon after reading.
I think the same can be said about music.
Johann Sebastian Bach’s “Toccata and Fugue in D Minor” is proof of this.
The energy behind this work, one of the most powerful and recognizable, could not have arisen by chance.
In my opinion, this tangible energy is precisely the result of the fact that Bach, receiving insights, transferred them to the sheet of music without distorting them, leaving us the music of the higher realms as he himself heard it.
If you listen closely, you can see how different energies alternate, creating a harmonious, unique pattern that the composer managed to preserve.

100% agree with all this. There is a soul to that sort of music. Kind of feels like it transcends space and time and has that universal touch. Hence why when you hear a classic for the first time… you just know it’s going to be a classic and boom. The whole world is obsessed with the song… and then overplays it to the point it gets ruined lol.
It’s interesting though cause in this day and age, a lot of songs go viral but imo, lack that ‘soul’ that we are speaking of. There is some amazing music still being made and some music deserving of their virality of course. But much of it, feels artificial in the sense of a song pushed out for conveniance (fitting with a lot of footage for tik toks) or has that virality of standing out and getting your attention.
So I get a bit confused with how that universal flow is being expressed these days. At the end of the day, it is all the universe expressing itself in a multitude of ways. But it seems like the universal antenna for creativity is being far mroe expressed through egoic rather than soulful expression in much of the work I’m seeing pushed out. And don’t get me started on all the popular AI music that ends up charting.

If I were asked to describe our time in one word, it would be the word artificiality.
Artificial intelligence composes music, and there are more and more artificial special effects in films.
It got to the point where artificial intelligence began to engage in military tactics and strategy.
“Sincerity” and “cordiality” become synonymous with weakness, giving way to selfishness and ambition.
I heard how one mother, picking up her little daughter from school, instructed her: “You have to be strong and not trust anyone. The world around us is a pool with crocodiles.”
It’s not hard to imagine what this little girl will become by her coming of age.
If we talk about art as a form of artistic reflection of reality (visible and hidden), then it is a kind of indicator of the state of consciousness of society, and at the same time a powerful lever of influence on it.
Of course, classical music cannot change the world, even if it is broadcast on all channels. And yet, the works of classics, unlike pop hits, cause the feeling that you have touched something that does not come, which is hidden behind the music and was its inspiration.
That is why I mentioned classical music earlier, namely J. S. Bach, who, like Mozart, did not subject the insights he received to emotional and mental processing, so that their works retained the vibrant vibration of those planes of consciousness from where they drew vibrational revelations, translating them into the language of music.

Well, I think artificiality s one way to describe it. I do think that it all fits under this being the information age though.
AI is basically information that you can interact with. It is information with simulated consciousness. And we are at a point in time, where humans have seemingly done everything we can think of and all of that is recorded for you to see and hear.
Our attention spans have been reduced heaily by short form content. And AI is helping people rapidly produce content to keep up with the pace and demand of people needing to be stimulated at any given moment on the internet.
It just reproduces what has worked before. The base level of taste that gets someone addicted to mcdonalds always coming back for more. Creative people can use it creatively though.
I think one way or another, the universal flow is still channeling creativity through all of us. There are a lot of amazing songs and all sorts of creations being made right now but in so many different cultures and genres at once. Art is more global and full of variety now in a way that goes beyond when it was the ballets, operas, symphonys and so on.
So those transcendant works of art might happen in a genre we’re not into at the moment. Everything has its moment.
Hmm… just thought of something. What music genre or art form is having its golden age right now?
Video games, animation, electronic music.

Ironically tasting and feeling any of your fields reinforced the idea of a living God and made more easier to digest the logic behind the miracles of Jesus Christ.

True! Whenever people also say games are dying, they are ignoring the amount of classics we have gotten in the past several years. Agree with the other two. Electronic music is so diverse and also fully based on creating novel sounds, to the degree there is always one subgenre or two having its golden age moment.
I’d also say K-Pop is having its golden age. Has been for a while. I’m not a fan but I understand the appeal. What’s interesting is that K-Pop shows how the universal flow channels in the world. K-Pop is a mix of western girl/boy group pop and hip hop… with cute asian energy lol. It takes the biggest of the old universal flow, to create something completely new.
Often, that’s what the universal flow is every doing. Making something big and new with the old. The new eventually becomes the old. Rock started out small and controversial until it became the biggest thing in the world. Hip Hop went through the same process. It’s interesting seeing how it all ebbs and flows.

Coming from an strict Christian family enviroment, I’ve been always taught about the faith, however when taught about faith the explanation always ends in: “Because God/The Bible said so” while i truly tried to believe there was always this barrier of not “feeling” it, just believe.
So back when i discovered your channel and listen to the first field i found Hunger Inhibitor and it work i was fascinated… and then i came to realise if we were like always able to have this hidden function then it makes sense that there was someone capable of doing what we do to absolute godly levels and the ideals of divinity were reflected by Jesus Christ.. of course that could apply to Buddha, and other religions as well.

Great way of putting it! Nothing beats experiencing something firsthand. It opens so many doors subconsciously.
Reading this reminded me I had a similiar expeirence when first encountering energy work and getting results. Especially the sapeinmed testosterone video. To feel extremely energized and like the hulk right after listening to a freaking screeching sound was mind blowing to me haha. It made me realize how much more was possible and to open my mind up more… to more.
