everything is an illusion<\/span> yes? so when ego is stressing and thinking shit like \u201coh its gonna take so long<\/i>\u201d or \u201ci dont have it yet<\/i>,\u201d its all just fake<\/b>. <\/p>\n

did you forget that<\/span> you are consciousness playing the role of a human?<\/span><\/i><\/h2>\n

consciousness = the movie screen and the human \/ the illusions = the movie thats playing<\/b><\/p>\n

consciousness is bigger than the human bc consciousness is everything. thats why consciousness is not just the movie screen but also the movie itself and the human watching the movie and the popcorn on the floor etc. if your real identity is bigger than the role your playing, why do you keep taking helpless feelings, negative thoughts and that victim mentality as real? <\/i>since its all an illusion and its all not real, might as well enjoy the movie right? <\/b><\/span>nothing is serious and nothing is real (like ego and the idea of a 3d etc). <\/p>\n

you are consciousness that only observes<\/b><\/span> so things SEEM<\/i> hard bc when you are aware of them\/observing them, ego categorizes<\/i> things as \u201chard\u201d or \u201ceasy\u201d etc. but rly, nothing is rly happening bc everything is just harmless, peaceful consciousness. <\/b><\/span>it seems real bc while being in the role of a human, ego believes all of this is real when its not (thats why its an illusion bc its just consciousness appearing as separate). <\/p>\n

ego labels and judges things<\/i> while consciousness only observers without opinions.<\/i> so nothing is \u201chard\u201d and \u201cyou\u201d arent \u201cnot getting\/manifesting\u201d what ego wants. <\/p>\n

laugh at the illusion and realize none of it is ever real. laugh at the idea that you dont have it bc you know that once you imagine it, you just observed it\u2026like you just made the proof that its already here and you ARE the proof thats its already there. <\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cnothing is ever real and things only exist when you become aware of them\u201d – @msperfect777<\/a> <\/i><\/p>\n

continue to be aware of what ego wants and realize that it already exists instantly. <\/span><\/b>forget about all the other illusions and just ride them out bc as consciousness, you know its all only a game. play the game and have fun not taking anything seriously. find peace in not giving a fuck about the negative thoughts n feelings bc they were never real in the first place. break free from the illusion. <\/p>\n
