Any tips to the scales?
Feel like I’m currently wavering between the person recognising and focusing on awareness and being that awareness. In meditation after a certain point I perceive things from the perspective of being the awareness and insights just come; but in day to day life like working, kids, family, sport, dealing with things etc I’m still the person trying to focus on and stay with the awareness as I’m doing. Any tips for tipping the scales towards the recognition of being awareness?

Moving from identifying with the person to identifying tidying as awareness I guess
Cannabis
Have you noticed that cannabis brings our mental problems to the surface? It may be that it allows us to take a closer look at them. Some say it's paranoia and that the substance exaggerates our problems. But these are our paranoias and problems, so it's worth looking at them. Personally, From my experiance it is a substance that introduces chaos, and the challenge is to embrace that chaos. But it brings also warmth and light. How do you think? Is it true that when a person has high vibrations, cannabis gives them a positive impression, and when they are having a bad day, the effect can be more of a bad trip? Some say it relaxes them, and some can't stand cannabis because it transports them to a little hell? How is it for you?

@Drayce Palmer very similar for me too just on very small single inhale. If have more I’m almost shot out of my body and energy roars like your on fire.

Your body feels dense, heavy, and tingling, almost like a low‑level vibration. Meanwhile, the “you” seems higher, lighter, and extremely fast — like a silent, high‑pitched tingle. It’s as if you are looking at the body from a distance, yet without any actual distance. With your eyes open the experience is still noticeable, but weaker. When you close your eyes and focus, it becomes vivid and pronounced. If you focus long enough, it swallows thought entirely until thought disappears. Even though the body is present and doing things — and you are using it — it feels almost unrelated to you. It’s there, yet the “you” feels so much more expansive and all‑encompassing. You can touch your body with your own hands, but it feels like you’re witnessing the movement rather than doing it or feeling it. You watch it happen, and it’s clear that it’s not you. There is also a sense of quiet, high vibrations with a distinct but silent noise — a very high pitch that becomes stronger the deeper you are in the state. When you’re not fully in it, the vibration feels like it’s behind the experience rather than in front, yet more real than the experience itself. Your presence — the real you — can make the body‑mind more loving. It’s not the body‑mind becoming loving toward you; it’s the other way around. Imagination becomes powerful and more real. You can watch your hand move while your mind insists that you are doing it, yet you sit back and simply watch the performance. The body and mind ask how to return to this state, while you watch them do that as well. When the question “How can I stay here?” arises, there’s a sense of an obvious answer: you are always already in this state, but you’re still identified with the body‑mind. If you imagine thought as a high‑pitch noise and focus on it, you can draw yourself toward that tone, recognising it as you. Yet even that eventually fades into the background as something else being witnessed. Nothing about the body or mind is actually “you.”

@Jordan Busschau I don’t k ow where to find my other post. But here it is - It feels like you are the space, the “everything” that wraps around and watches over all things from everywhere—like a sphere that holds and hugs everything at once. This presence looks after, embraces, and protects everything, including the person you appear to be, other people, and all things. It’s always there, but we get lost inside the imagined identity of the person. For me, when I’m sober I don’t easily feel like I’m that larger presence. A small amount of cannabis amplifies my ability to sense it and to know that I am that, and to see that I’m not just the body or the person—but the presence that hugs, loves, and reassures this “character.” The person feels like a lower, denser vibration—more solid—while the other presence is a higher vibration, like a field of energy everywhere. Cannabis helps the “person” feel it, merge with it, and remember it. Even if you can’t feel it, it’s always there. A technique for someone to perceive this might be: Increase the body’s vibration—almost like creating an internal tension—using imagination to speed up your energy until it gets as high as possible. Keep raising the vibration until the body feels like it merges with the highest frequency, the frequency of everything. Since all things and all people are made of the same atoms, it’s about learning to raise their vibration or speed. The eyes may naturally lift upward, the spine may straighten to let energy flow better. This isn’t necessary, but it can make the person feel merged with the higher frequency, becoming everything, with no sense of separateness. But you can also reach it without changing the body’s frequency at all. You just have to find it and recognize that it’s there even if the body doesn’t feel it. This might be similar to self-enquiry. On lower vibrations you may not feel it as strongly, but it’s still you—the true you, not the person, who is more like a cute actor, NPC, player, or character in your own dream.

Knowledge download 3 - It’s like you’re everywhere, a bit like a field that everything’s appearing in, it’s still, it’s sort of silent, but the only way to experience the physical world is through the perceptions/senses of the thing or person you’re somehow attached to. It’s like you are everything, but you can’t know that from the senses, body, thoughts, emotions. You can’t inspect only know yourself when you separate yourself from everything and see it. Maybe that’s why people say you’re everything and nothing at the same time. Once there you can investigate it further with the mind and try to tell others about it. I guess that’s why we talk and write and make videos about it. - Even a thought or string of thoughts your all around it and I guess it’s imagination but you can’t inspect it from all sides. You’re in the body, outside the body and can perceive the barrier between the inside and outside via the skin and its sensations. That’s actually a way to experience what you are, you can focus on the sensations of the skin and see that you can silently inspect if from the outside your body or from the inside. - A thought comes in and says, pick up the phone and start writing or check something out. I watch it, I can go with it, I can just watch it and stay. Sometimes the bodies impulse to go with it is very strong but you can’t inspect watch that also, the thought comes, the body starts to move, more thoughts come and suddenly the bodies doing whatever it’s up to, like scrolling on the phone looking for something. At some point if you’re not careful everything’s real again and it’s you scrolling, but in fact it’s not you scrolling, you’re seeing the person scrolling. - Everything becomes so worldly so quickly again. It must be because that’s our default operating state after many years. Teachers of this stuff often say our actual default setting is the knowing awareness state from a baby but as we grow in the world the default state becomes the one we ‘all’ know  and operate from.

Maybe just start with self inquiry? Until it becomes more clear what you are. They branch out and experiment or explore.
