Religion has mostly tainted the word “God”

God isn’t a man in the sky who judges your every move. God is… well, this. At least in my honest opinion.

Imagine you’re in a utopia that is completely free of evil, having the time of your life. I mean truly imagine it. Fully immerse yourself in that scenario within your mind. Like it’s actually happening in real life.

Perhaps you’re playing volleyball on the beach. Or visiting the mall with your friends. Or attending an epic party. Or skating. Or going on a road trip. Or swimming at the local community pool. Or playing games in an arcade. Whatever you can imagine. There are so many possibilities.

Imagine as many people as you possibly can existing all at once in that scene. Don’t imagine yourself as one singular person, but rather, rapidly switch your POV between each person in the scene. Imagine what all of their thoughts and emotions would feel like all at once. Feel their joy. Their love for each other. Their peace. Their contentment. Their freedom. Their childlike sense of wonder and excitement.

What you’re feeling essentially is God. Well, kind of. If you get what I mean, it should eventually click for you if you do this exercise successfully. If you got goosebumps, you likely did it correctly. If you didn’t, I’d recommend repeating this exercise until you do, if you can/want to. Take your time. Don’t rush. You want to really feel it all as if it’s really happening.

Group meditation/concentration

Note: Don’t take this too seriously. I only intend for this to be a fun little experiment to test what happens. If you don’t wish to participate or can’t, you’re free not to. Don’t pressure yourself too much about it, but try to at least remember. I know these types of posts usually get nowhere, but there’s nothing wrong with a bit of experimentation, is there? You never know if something could happen.

The plan: On May 23, at approximately 12:45 A.M. EDT, I want as many people as possible to meditate or nap/sleep and concentrate intensely on being at the food court in the mall, however you’re able to envision it. That part doesn’t matter too much. However, as for the vibe itself, try to imagine what it’d feel like to be a joyous child at a mall and invoke as much feelings of familiarity and nostalgia as you can.

The goal: To simply go with the flow and see if anything happens. Maybe we slightly lift each other’s spirits. Maybe we pick up a thought or two from somebody else. Maybe we even meet up. Maybe absolutely nothing will happen. And that’s okay with me, but I at least want to try. For the heck of it. To see what happens.

Is there anyone who’s interested and also able to start at around the provided timeframe? I plan for it to last about an hour total, so the window is fairly small.

Personally, I will likely reach my peak levels of focus around 25 minutes in and probably won’t be able to maintain it for more than 5 - 10 minutes, but I’ll still maintain some level of focus until the hour is up.

Gained lucidity

Just minutes ago, I was almost fully lucid stumbling through a place that basically looked like these images combined.

I could feel my body vibrating intensely the whole time, so mentally I was panicking like, “no, I’m not ready yet, I wanna explore more” and affirming, “my senses are fully engaged” but it wasn’t working. I was stuck stumbling around in a dissociated state with the few people who were around giving me weird looks.

Eventually, I woke myself up on purpose due to being unable to ground myself more into that environment. When I finally woke up fully, my whole body was buzzing and spasmed violently, as if my dream body physically fell into it.

Coordinated attacks?

This isn’t necessarily about AP, but I suppose it does apply here. This is a general observation I’ve made after a while of lurking in this sub and related subs.

So, is it just me, or at random times each year, especially when these kinds of posts gain a lot of traction, it’s like a huge wave of naysayers, possibly including bots, flood into various spiritual communities on here and reply to everything they possibly can with rude comments attacking the poster and denying the existence of whatever the post is about?

Do y’all think that there’s really something to this, or am I just reading into it too much?

Moon Setting Behind Teide Volcano

Correction 🙏 The video is sped up

These people are not in danger. What is coming down from the left is just the Moon, far in the distance. Luna appears so large here because she is being photographed through a telescopic lens. What is moving is mostly the Earth, whose spin causes the Moon to slowly disappear behind Mount Teide, a volcano in the Canary Islands of Spain off the northwest coast of Africa.

The people pictured are 16 kilometers away and many are facing the camera because they are watching the Sun rise behind the photographer. It is not a coincidence that a full moon sets just when the Sun rises because the Sun is always on the opposite side of the sky from a full moon.

The featured video was made in 2018 during a full Milk Moon.

I just woke up from a dream where I was training to be an elite starship pilot via a simulated cockpit which had a white and orange color palette with a honeycomb pattern and several unlabeled buttons and levers that I’m surprised I understood. It was so vivid and looked like something out of Star Trek. I was put through various theoretical scenarios like engine malfunction, system overload, enemy ship attack, ship invasion, rogue planet encounter, air leak, miscalculated trajectory, etc. and finished the training & got promoted just before waking up. This was a new one, but I figured it belongs here because of the sheer vividness and familiarity of the experience. It 100% had that Mallworld vibe to it.

I keep having this reoccurring dream where I'm taken with a bunch of random people via bus to this entrance tunnel of some sorts located deep in a remote area. It always leads down into an underground place that looks nearly identical to this image. My memory always cuts out a minute or so after entering. Has anyone seen this or knows what it is?
