oscillating in duality

hi,
q:why did Arjuna get up?
Contentment is oscillating between fun of joyously consuming
life as a gift in every new day of new possibilities and the
vomiting sensation of excessively consuming this unnecessary and
meaningless gift.
Why did Arjuna get up? One day I think :“ for the possible fun
and excitement he might face in war, of course!” The next day I
desperately ask “why did he get up after seeing the triviality
of life?”. Today is the day of “why did Arjuna get up? Please
answer! I really need to know!”. today i think" i should suicide
because there is no point in anything". tomorrow I say:" why
suicide? after all there is no point in being alive or dead".
but tomorrow soon will come, so I don't believe in my sincerity
in asking this question!
By the way Why did Arjuna get up?

Hi there:
Welcome to the JM Suicide Line.
You missed the point, no one ever got up. No stories are true,
that's why they are called stories. Perhaps it's time for you to
get up. Can you do it?
Love ya, Jed.

Think of it as a story book. At the beginning you start reading
very excited, you melt down in the story and believe it and
become one with the character but then it gets boring and
cliche. And there aren't better stories around. The book in your
hand gets irrelevant to you and you drop it. If you can't make
adhering stories that is the end.
To answer“ can you get up?” : “ get up and what? Write an story
? I can't make up anymore.” Or I should better say I can't even
decide the topic. It is not better than flipping coins. Because
there is no motive. Nothing to keep me on that direction. I
think that the point of life is having some story but not very
interested anymore. It is like you are not hungry and you think
you should get up and eat sth. You open the refrigerator and
look in. But nothing tempting to eat especially if there is
nothing sweet in it. You shot it and sit down. That is how I see
it now, I can't understand where the problem is.

There is no ''problem''. A problem is only a thought that
something shouldn't be as it is... but it is as it is and
nothing one can do... so, no problem.

Hi,
I want to ask about synchronicity. But discouraging and
repelling kind of synchronicity. In recent years, I've tried
many times to make decisions about the direction of my life
which was very hard because somehow I've lost my sense of
direction. But whenever I said let's just take this direction,
something strange happened that discouraged me.something made me
think I can't go that way or I shouldn't or it's too late or it
is too much for my capacity. Which makes me pinned to where I
am. I've been waiting here for a long time. I feel stagnating
here! Having no interactions with life I'm also getting dumb!
Getting weaker and coward. like the ones that say beat me to
death but don't ask me to do anything about it. As if I am a
master failer. I don't even cry anymore. It's kind of powerfully
accepting my disability and stupidity! I have had many dreams
that came true but they are either insignificant or about my
failures and bad things only! Maybe because I've been falling
nonstop recently! You see I'm not afraid of falling anymore, but
I am bored! What do you think the problem is?

What do I think the problem... well... in my infinite wisdom
::) ::) ::) I think it's pretty clear. The problem is ''you''
think there is a problem. Lose that ''you'' and you find all is
well, in fact, quite fantastic.
Find that ''you'' and the answer will be obvious. Stop thinking
and start doing.
Love ya, Jed.

I know that from a detached point of view it doesn't differ if
I'm enlightened or i'm consumed in doing my favorite job or I'm
suffering from hunger or none. It is only a matter of
remembering :”the “I" is playing it”. Then there is no problem
and drama stops instantly ( the reason I can't really cry
anymore). but I don't remember it all the time which is the
problem.
Another thing is: I hate this spiritual identity! If I didn't
believe in these things I would say:” this life is a nonsense
shit either way, I'll resist in the direction I've chosen just
to examine my madness and see what happens”. But now I have to
think about the big picture, life purpose and shits like that
because some strange synchronicity has been happening which I
don't even completely believe in.

Hi,
What to you recommend to resolve the fears that hides behind
rationalization?

Let me ask you a question, where would the fears and
rationalizations be there was no ''you''. Not joking. If you
realized that what you think is you, what you think has always
been you, is just a fiction.... where would the fears and
rationalizations be?
This is NOT an intellectual realization or an analysis.... it
must be a deep form of realization.
Love ya, Jed.
