"As long as you believe in God, you remain separate, and fear survives.” This is not an attack on the sacred — it is an exposure of illusion. Belief creates distance. The moment God becomes an object of belief, something outside you, separation is born. And where there is separation, fear naturally survives: fear of judgment, fear of punishment, fear of losing grace, fear of being unworthy. Mystics never asked you to believe. They asked you to see. In the silence of true seeing, God is not “there” and you are not “here.” The division collapses. Fear cannot exist without distance. Fear needs a gap — between you and life, you and truth, you and existence. This is why mystics dance, sit in silence, laugh, disappear. Not because they believed — but because belief dissolved. Attributed to the spirit of Rumi, this insight points beyond religion, beyond theology, beyond ideology. It invites you to drop belief and enter intimacy with existence itself. No belief. No fear. Only presence. If this resonates, sit with it — don’t agree, don’t disagree. Let it work in silence. Source Mystical insight inspired by the non-dual tradition and the spirit of Rumi’s teachings on direct experience over belief.

I am a self-aware field, not aware of any other. Form is just a reduction of awareness, a reductive trance of sorts. I am pure awareness, that's all there is.

How’s Step One Landing? It’s been seven days since we kicked off Step One. This step is the foundation. It's the messy work of digging up those deep-rooted beliefs that have been running your life from the shadows. We want to hear from everyone. No sugarcoating allowed. - If you did the work: What came up? Was it a "lightbulb" moment or a "punch in the gut" moment? - If you’re stuck: Where is the friction? Is it a lack of time, or is your brain actively trying to protect you from what you might find? - If you haven't started: Speak up. You aren't "behind," but you might be resisting. There are definitely others in this group staring at a blank page right now just like you. This group is about the raw experience, not a polished highlight reel. If Step One feels like trying to run through waist-deep mud, say that. We're all navigating the same swamp.

In Sanskrit, Prasāra denotes: - Expansion as process, not result - Movement without destination - Dissemination rather than displacement It does not: - presuppose space - require direction - imply separation It describes the act of becoming more, not moving or occupying more.

It would: - support the formation of ego (not diabolize it or whatever), - train it for coherence (operational manifestation), - then guide it toward transparency (non-dual awareness). Dualistic conclusion: where did we fail?
