He says, I never made one of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking. And the reason I offer this is because if we do delve into this, please bring your imagination, your creativity. Because although we have a lot of information, scientifically and logically, et cetera. Speaking, I think we can't necessarily discover the new things without playing. And so this is where my brain is at the moment. Okay

I think intrinsically, the human mind is meant to be curious. But due to nature and nurture and things I cannot explain begin to explain. Some people have this curiosity bumped up to a really sensitive and really profound way to where we get an Albert Einstein. Or dare I say, even a seeking plumb. It's like the Schrodinger's Cat theory, right? The cat is in the box with some sort of radioactive contraption in there
And like my consciousness somehow or another or whoever I am moves from me through the fungi into the mycelium network and suddenly becomes a part of the greater. I'm no longer this autonomous shell moving about the planet. I'm like woven into the nature. And I'm saying this

But it's complicated to try to understand that you might be something other than your brain that you might be able to the true you might be the one observing, able to observe, step back and observe. It's a very spiritual idea. Like you said, scientifically, it doesn't have a lot to back up the idea that you could have a separate self who your brain has the thoughts. But perhaps the spirit type presence or your true nature is observing the thoughts

Hey, seeking Plum. So nice to hear that you've returned. I'm pretty new to swell, and it's nice to hear someone who has some experience on this app and understanding of what really resonates with people, people and what sharing really means. So I think your share is really insightful and had me thinking in a lot of different ways. You had many visuals, which I was trying to keep up with
If it's rest, you give that to yourself. If it's something from your past, that when you were a child you didn't get, then you do your very best to give yourself that then, too. Just as a side note, I found a really helpful exercise that worked for me. Where in a book, an author was saying, Create your own fairy tale and be your own hero and write it. However you want to write it. And that was so empowering and healing
And so just because we are changed or make a change, it doesn't mean it has to stay that way or we have to continue on that trajectory. And I really appreciate that reminder. So thank you
It's North Star, whatever you want to say, because spirituality and I'm not talking about dogmatic spirituality, but more about the spirituality of groups moving together and making music together, or people singing together or people dancing together or people doing serving together or people doing something that's Noble and beautiful and Truthful and good together, all those different things, including being in the space of being able to change your mind and being receptive to adapting to situations and being imaginative about situations
Welcome to Swell, Kendall. Or do you prefer Kendy? And thank you for your kind words. I liked what you had to say about energy, and mycelium I sort of think of it like, don't know if it's potentially more or less effective. But since we are these piles of vibrating atoms, right. When people talk about vibes and frequencies and things that you can pick up when you approach someone or there's something you can feel. Right
Beautifully put, Kendy. That? S all I've got. Just beautifully put. Thank you

The observer is just the witness to these changes that are happening at the body mind intellectual, I don't know if I'm making any sense, but I just thought I'll add my two cent to this conversation. Welcome back, Christina
Thank you for the warm welcome. Could you please type out the words that you use to describe that aspect of Hindu philosophy? Because I'd really like to learn more about it. Thanks

Hi. I was referring to one particular text within Hindu philosophy called the Ashtravakragita, and it is among many, many texts on Advaita philosophy within Hinduism. So by text I'm essentially talking about a scripture or a book if you may. So I'm sharing a link here. I hope you find that useful. And I'll also type out the word so that you can look at other places on the net as well
Thank you. I tried the link, but it said Sorry, this page does not exist, but I dill use what you've Typed out there and look for that. Thank you. Thank you
