Dear Michael,
According to what I have been experiencing, the answer is NO. This is all I am able to say "now". 💫💫
25. Listen to the melody and not just to the lyrics.
39. Even the smallest butt need a 'SUTRA' to rise up, from the sofa.
"You have all you need right now! Breath, feel it"... Reading it after being told that "You just lose what is not you" in the same day is definitely a "message".
And the third message here for me: Stop thinking that what you are seeking for is your needed "SUTRA" on your path.
Just Stop it for God's sake....
... the third message here for me: Stop thinking that what
I am still on it, and I am waiting to see the results.
So far, so good 🙂💓
Just after silence the mind is a bit clearer.
Question 09 Does it make a difference whether someone has actually dived
to a depth of 30–40 metres in the ocean without technical equipment, or is
it enough simply to be intelligent to understand the experience?
Enjoy Diving.... 🙂
You mean experiencing without diving?
It is what I am experiencing now only in my dreams?!?!
... we are creating our own world,
based on personal experience and emotional
well being, education and our wish to form
a kind of reliable world for us, to feel safe.
What about those whose stupidity didn't let them "form a reliable world to feel safe"?
And who is responsible for all of that?
Are either those who "made" a life or those who "wasted" it are the "Doers" of what happened?
It is US who decide and do? Is it US who are to be blamed?
Sri Ma says [everything is HIS play, humans think he "Do", but everything happens based on HIS will.]
Why should we SUFFER from regreting our errors and mistakes while everything is planned beforehand?
Why should we bear the pain while we did "our best" based on our physical and mental capacities?
What kind of torture is it?
😐
Hm…good question!
What about this: HE gave us freedom and a free will and we are making the game, HE is watching?
With all respect, dear Monika, I don't agree. The game which we assume we are making is all his plan. However I totally agree with "HE is watching" and enjoying his games.
What I say, is not negative. It is the truth in my opinion and based on my experiences.
And Sri Ma also says: when someone loses a train in spite of all their efforts, can't they see that It Is All His Will?

This is what I have learned: We (our souls) are doing stuff, making decisions, working, etc by HIS WILL who is telling our souls/bodies what to do in order to lose or win (relative words) so that we can learn our lessons in this carnation.
Now I see thinking yhis way, we should actually be grateful to Him for our loss and failures in this life...
And considering tha fact that We are Him, and He is experiencing this world through our bodies/souls, it makes sense to say HE is the planner and doer of every action.
Well... now I wonder who should be grateful, We or Him? Oh there is no "or". It s all ONE.
SO, likewise, who should regret? We or Him? ....

Dear Ayda, thank you for sharing these thoughts with me!
Yes, we are here to learn and to make experiences, to grow
and develop our consciousness and let me name "HIM"
as a kind of creating power or energy. So why should "HE" enjoy
all the things we are doing to each other? I think we got all
possibilities, including the freedom of decision in what we are doing,
"HE" is the observer, someone who doesn´t judge.
I don´t know, if I am right, really!
the more I try to think about it,
the more I get confused about it!
What we experience is the filtered version of what really is.... 🙂
In the past, the first question that used to raise by hearing such statement was :WHY, FOR GOD'S SAKE? WHY DO HUMANS HAVE TO SUFFER A FILTERED WORLD? WHY?"
But now, urgency matters more. There is no time to ask why. We have a short time to overcome the filter (Matrix or whatever it is) and see the Truth. I mean these kinds of questions are good and maybe helpful as triggers, but sticking on them and remaining angry with the whole creation is a horrible waste of time.
According to what I have learned recently, the path to the truth is long enough and "MAZE_LIKE" enough (because we haven't learned to shut the mind down yet) that we would be so lucky if we reach the final line in this life (whether or not HE wants us to reach there is another matter to talk about).
So, although PATIENCE is a very necessary element here, not wasting time by non_helping thoughts and doubts can be very helpful.

Physiologically speaking, the centre for pleasure is the same
as that for pain. The two are two sides of the same coin. This
raises a question.
Question 11: Is Self-Awareness even possible WITHOUT these two?
As far as I have learned theoritically, pain and pleasure are included in self-awareness and in fact, they are desolved in it once one gets enlightened.
But the question is "is there any way other than Forcing ourselves to choose pleasure over pain, to Making ourselves joyful when we are sad, and reducing the scale of the powerful pain in our life?
What is the solution when 80 percent of life is pain and suffering? Thinking logically and psychologically that "the pain is not the truth and we should be aware of our precious selves?"
How can we use pain and pleasure to reach awareness?
Should we reach awareness to get rid of these two's playings?
I have the experience of making myself joyful in the middle of sadness. I also did choose pleasure over pain in the moment I felt pain in growing in me several times. However, these EFFORTS do not last long.
I also had the experience of becoming joyful by meditation, talking to a beloved person, doing something very lovely and meaningful,... but this pleasure did not last either.
It seems we should Permanently Focus and Try to be pleased. But this doesn't look right. "Love" does not happen by Trying, so I think the way to "Light" is not Trying this much either.
Is Silence the way to see and feel this "awareness"?
...
For this, the 'answer' is not giving from the intellect.
What real answer is? It is the 'experience' inside the
core ... from the source of all questions.
Today, I felt it to some (well...more than some) extend. When we feel and breathe The Light everywhere, there will be no space to feel or think "pain".
MICHAEL,
THANK YOU.💚
....
Enjoy Diving into it.... 🙂
Just after silence....
Question 10 Can you imagine reaching a state where your curiosity about
what follows earthly existence becomes greater than your drive to make
a difference here on Earth?
To me, one reason for the drive to make a "difference" here on Earth IS "what follows earthy existence".
And if the "collective curiosity" leads to Find what follows, there would not be a need to make a difference anymore...
🍁
The aswer would (always) be, a mirror of the
State-of-Awareness of the person, Ayda... 🙂
You are right, Dear Michael.
Most of the times, the answers are amirrors of one's state of awareness, state of intellect, and even one's "capacity" to see and accept the Truth. I see this fact a lot, especially among so_called humans who obey their inner devils despite claiming to accept God's helping hand.
