Running In Circles, Searching For What?

Running in Circles, Searching for What?

Readers often describe feeling trapped in a loop: searching, chasing, doing more to get somewhere. Hoping for progress, proof, or an improvement that justifies all the effort. But here’s the real question:

Has it brought you anywhere?

Take a moment. How long have you been seeking? Months? Years? Have you "found" anything, or is it just more seeking, more questions, more frustration? You run in circles, chasing shadows, hoping the next practice, insight, or realization will be "it."

It’s not wrong to feel this way, but consider this: the very act of searching implies you think there’s something missing—something you lack that needs to be attained. But what if the assumption itself is flawed? What if the one seeking is the very illusion you’re trying to unpack?

Let’s step back and look at the nature of a "dream".

When "you" seem to "dream" at night, no matter what the "dream" looks like—whether it’s exciting, terrifying, or mundane—"who/what" is always "present"? Who is there in every "dream"? And how do you even know it’s a "dream"? You can feel sensations arising, hear the sounds, and even "think" within the "dream". Sounds familiar, no?

Now look deeper: where is the dream coming from? What gives it its apparent existence? When the dream ends, where does it go? And in those moments of so-called deep sleep, when you say, "I didn’t dream at all," how do you know that gap was even there? What remains?

In every dream, there’s an undeniable Knowing—a "presence" that holds it all, isn't there? The dream is fleeting, but the Knowing of it isn’t. It’s there whether the dream is "vivid", "faint", or "absent" altogether. And that same knowing is "present" now, reading these words, isn't it? You don't have to use any thoughts to notice.

So.. what are you really searching for? The next “aha” moment? A tangible shift? Something to confirm, “Yes, now I’ve got it”? But who would "get it"?

All there is, is this—this effortless "awareness" in which everything arises and disappears.

All seeking starts to dissolve when you see that what you’re looking for isn’t "out there." It’s the same presence that’s already aware of the seeking, the frustration, and the loop itself. Just like in a dream, you’re chasing answers without realizing you’re the space in which the entire dream unfolds.

Here’s the thing: I can tell you this over and over again, and I can write endless words about it, but at the end of the day, you have to see it. Nothing I say or anyone else says will make it clearer to you than seeing it directly.

Think of it like this: imagine I tell you about the taste of a "Tsampa" (tibetan foodstuff). Let me try to describe it—Tsampa has a simple, earthy taste—kind of nutty and a little smoky because it’s made from roasted barley. It’s pretty dry on its own, but when you mix it with butter tea (bo cha) or milk (or water), it turns into a creamy porrdige that’s super satisfying.

Do you now know how it tastes based off of this short description? No matter how much anyone tries to describe it, you wouldn’t really know what it’s like until you actually try it yourself. You might feel like you “get it,” but until you actually taste Tsampa (-Porridge) for yourself, it’s all just words. The actual direct experience is yours to have, and words will never compare to it.

It’s the same here. Look at the loop you feel stuck in. Look at the dreamlike nature of every experience. Look at what’s behind the looking itself. And notice: the seeking, the searching, and even the apparent struggle—what is all of it arising in?

The dream at night is your perfect clue. Who’s been there in every dream, in every scene, in every story in and out of it? Who’s the constant presence beneath it all? If you truly see that, will there be any questions left?

i wish I could live as freely as you :(

There’s no “me” living freely — that’s just another assumption. The idea that I live freely and you don’t is part of the same illusion you’re trying to get out of. What you are is already free. It's not about becoming that, it’s about seeing that you were never not that.

No one is Here

[very unusual for us but here is a longer post inspired by YourHighSelf. We'll never post another long one again]

No One Is Here

Don't believe that the observer is over here, and what's observed is over there.

In this very moment, "THAT" is your nature. And don't believe me because you can only be aware of the idea of believing something. YOU don't believe anything. YOU don't have opinions of anything. YOU don't label things good and bad. YOU don't have an idea of how things should be or how things should feel. YOU aren't confused, YOU are aware of the confusion, YOU aren't seeking, YOU are aware of the seeking. Thoughts are just happening, they are happening to no one.

But I am saying that what YOU are is here and has always been here regardless of what practices you do, this takes no time because time doesn't exist. Right now is the only experience that can be experienced. You will never awaken in the future. You will never get there one day. You will never be enlightened one day. So let's stop focusing so much on what you have to do to get there. As if there is somewhere to go or something to do to be what you already are. You don't have to do anything to be. Let's begin to focus on simply realizing that you are " " Emptiness right now, accept what you are in this moment.

You're simply realizing what never changes; " " Your sense of Being or Existing. You're realizing the truth.

You don't have to be a monk, you don't have to be a teacher of consciousness. You can enjoy life in any way you want. It's a dream, it's your dream.

you never left heaven, just turn around and realize you've been on the inside looking out.

-No power is above " "

-Nothing can hurt " "

-Nothing has ever happened to " "

You are "presence" itself.

Hii! I get quite confused by some things. There's nothing to do, because there's no one to do it, right? Everything is in me/I am I. I don’t understand what it would be like to “turn inward” when I am already THAT, or “realize”. What should I "notice"? If there is no agent, what should I watch out for? I would like to free myself from this burden.

I have the feeling that there is still something missing, a moment when everything becomes clear. I have read and heard that this moment does not exist, so why should I “turn inward”?

Stay safe, and thank you!

Hello!

When we say turn inward, it's just to call your attention towards the core of every appearance. " ". Nothing. Which "appears" to be something. If you already understand that there is no entity, and nothing to watch out for, then stop looking for anything more. Sink in this moment itself, because "THIS" is all there is, and all that can ever be.

The feeling of something missing is just that, a FEELING. And every doubt you have is just that, a THOUGHT. Happening to no one. If you already understand that, then just let everything be. Don't seek. Don't search.

Stay right where you are. Just..Be. Exist. Notice how throughout everything, you're always just BEING.

Você, como Consciência, está sempre ciente de algo.

Você, Como Consciência, Está Sempre Ciente De Algo.
Você, Como Consciência, Está Sempre Ciente De Algo.
Você, Como Consciência, Está Sempre Ciente De Algo.

quando Você diz SER ou TER algo, essa frase ressoa muito além do que seus sentidos podem perceber. quando Você diz SER algo, na verdade Você, como Consciência, está dizendo que está CIENTE de ser algo. quando Você diz TER algo, na verdade Você, como Consciência, está dizendo estar CIENTE de ter algo. Você, como Consciência, está SEMPRE ciente de algo. não há como "desligar" essa "habilidade" pois a Consciência é tudo o que o há no mundo. não há como desligar essa habilidade pois Você está SEMPRE CIENTE de algo. Você está ciente de ter pensamentos que não desejava ter, os famosos "pensamentos intrusivos" ou "negativos". Você está ciente de coisas que sequer estão presentes no plano físico, como uma festa que acontecerá no mês que vem, as contas que terá no mês que vem, a academia que começará na próxima semana, etc. até mesmo quando Você não está ciente de algo, Você ainda está ciente de não estar ciente de algo. Você nunca conseguirá escapar disso e o quao perfeito é saber disto? o quão perfeito é saber que apenas a sua ciência pode causar a existência ou o desaparecimento de algo? o quão reconfortante é saber que Você é o ÚNICO na sua realidade que tem poder para "interferir" em algo?

Você, como Consciência, está sempre ciente de ser ou ter algo. Você está ciente de ser uma pessoa que busca por milagres ou soluções para seus problemas; Você está ciente de ser uma pessoa que não tem amigos; Você está ciente de ser uma pessoa que não tem sua aparência desejada, ao mesmo tempo que pode estar ciente de ser uma pessoa que nunca passa por problemas financeiros pois sempre há dinheiro de sobra na conta; estar ciente de ser uma pessoa que está sempre rodeada de amigos; estar ciente de possuir sua aparência e seu corpo ideal desde que nasceu. e por esse motivo, a manifestação é sempre instantânea pois o simples fato de tal desejo ter cruzado a sua Consciência, já o torna tão real quanto aquilo o que seus sentidos conseguem compreender. é totalmente possível que o "físico" reflita instantaneamente qualquer desejo seu, mas caso não ocorra, escolha continuar ciente de que tudo já lhe pertence e como o físico é apenas um reflexo seu, ele não tem outra escolha a não ser refletir aquilo o que VOCÊ já decretou como verdade.

Você, como Consciência, está ciente de estar vivendo uma experiência humana, mas não se esqueça de que não está limitado a tal.

Você, como Consciência, está sempre ciente de algo. então, do que estará ciente agora? de ser uma pessoa que ainda está esperando por seus desejos ou de ser uma pessoa que já possui todos os seus desejos? a escolha e a ordem são sempre suas. então, use-as a seu favor.

> LOCK IN < IN PRACTICE

> LOCK IN < IN PRACTICE

> LOCK IN < IN PRACTICE

1. Final Decision – You decide that you already have it. You are not trying, hoping or wishing. It is already yours.

2. Nothing Outside of It Exists – Anything that does not reflect your decision is irrelevant. If it arises, ignore it or reinterpret it in your favor.

3. Zero Reaction – Adverse circumstances have no weight. They do not change your inner certainty.

4. Absolute Confidence – You do not need to “fix” anything. Your only function is to remain certain that you already have it.

5. Living Normally – You act and think as if you already have it, effortlessly, without trying to “make it happen”.

Lock in it is about making your decision so absolute that external reality has no choice but to bow to it.

> LOCK IN < IN PRACTICE

Dealing with doubts and contradictions in the "who told you?" method

(inspiration from the power of i am)

> LOCK IN < IN PRACTICE

Who told you that you are feeling like shit? Who told you that you have no money? Who told you that you don’t have your SP? Who told you that you angry or depressed?

remember the divine order of things: as WITHIN so WITHOUT.

If you are giving power to the external and bringing it to the internal and allowing it to intoxicate you, you are giving your divine power away.

So who told you that?

Always ask that and go back within and remind yourself of the truth and correct that then go live your life.

If you absorb an identity and you are BEING it, everything you do will lead to that, there is no wrong choice, theres no wrong movement, as long as you remain the person you chose within and don't contradict that.

Times up.

you either want your desire or you don’t, you’ve been spending way too much time procrastinating and worrying about the “whats and ifs” can you stop that now? manifestation is an instant process its all about deciding. you literally decide every day. “oh but im scared of failure—“ oh my god shut up with failure, it literally doesn’t exist unless you give it meaning TO exist, everything is meaningless until YOU give it meaning. you’re the key to everything why is it so hard for you guys to grasp this concept. are you scared of change? are you scared of knowing you have the ability to create and make whatever you want? if you said yes then thats just pathetic, im sorry that may seem harsh but its the truth, why are you being scared of YOUR power?? get a grip. nobody’s coming to save you, you’re on your own in this world, yeah bloggers have information but soon enough these bloggers won’t be here to help you anymore (since majority manifested their dream life). when are you going to finally allow yourself that freedom? that happiness? i get that change can be a bit “scary” but you have to get rid of that fear. failure does NOT and WILL not ever exist unless you give it that meaning. i find it very ironic that you can easily WITHOUT a doubt can decide to be delusional over some boy who barely glances an eye at you but suddenly so scared to decide for you’re own desires.

the moment you decide something is true than it is true, the moment you experience it in the 4D its now a true experience, the moment you assume something is true it is now true.

theres no such thing as divine timing, theres no such thing as “waiting for the 4D to reflect” i do not care what someone tells you. do NOT be delusional. the whole point of manifesting is to literally to decide whats true or whats not true, never does it ever say “be delusional and your desires will come” people snap out delusion real quick and real life will come right back to slap them in the face. JUST KNOW SOMETHING IS TRUE AND THEN MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE.

everything is from within, not outside of you. all you need to do is decide/assume and then accept and move on. no you don’t have to saturate your mind, no no no no no NO!!!! i can’t stress this enough. if you’re making manifestation feel like a hard time job then you’re doing it wrong, if you’re forcing yourself to affirm then you’re doing it wrong, if you’re trying to do stuff to make your manifestation “come faster” you’re doing it wrong.

manifesting is not a process, its instantaneous the moment you decide something is true.
