How about writing below regarding the effect that the current tu
rmoil is having you.
By: Jed McKenna Date: March 28, 2020, 6:02 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Dear Student, Readers and Friends:
I would not have thought about doing this six months ago, but
back then we lacked the opportunity the virus is now providing.
I don't know if any of you would like to do this, but I would
enjoy hearing how this 'event' has effected you. There is a
catch. I don't want to hear about lack of toilette paper or
getting bored of canned beans, or that this is a Paperclip Nazi
program directed from Antartica. I want to know how these
happenings have affected your sense of self, your search for
Truth and your feelings about 'others'. How has this altered
your perspective on and in the dream?
One more point, for those whole feel this is catastrophic, in
the human dream sense, forget it. We are only witnessing the
beginning, the 'meat tenderizing' stage. The best is yet to come
in the not so distant future. The is an amazing stage of the
dream. Are you grateful, angry, fearful, resentful... or ::)
::) ::) ... maybe you don't give a damn... and that's perfectly
fine ... and it's still a response.
Remember, this is all about all you can ever know, YOU!... and
perhaps with a little good fortune, the realize that Truth is.
This may just be that good fortune.
Much love, Jed.
P.S. You are welcome to log on the forum and respond in this
thread. I read every work written to me.

Hey Jed,
It's been a couple of years since visiting your forum. I've
continued to receive email updates though and so kept in touch
by a very thin thread - the subject line, haha. There hasn't
been a pull to get involved again until now, because man, I
gotta say, everything has been truly fantastic. I'm blessed.
I've been itching for every opportunity to say so while at the
same time recognizing that others may not feel the same. They're
looking at the conditions of the event and are facing legitimate
uncertainty about how it's all playing out. It doesn't feel
right to broadcast, "Hey look at me! I'm fine! Look how
wonderful things are!" I'm very sensitive to the emotional
well-being of other humans and how it feels to stare down the
barrel of what appears to be a cosmic gun. I feel for the loss
of loved ones and for the unemployment and sickness. I truly do.
It's tough. BUT, at the same time, I can't help but be
enormously grateful and full of joy and excitement, because
individually, things have...snapped into place where I literally
have nothing to worry about.
I'm coasting man.
And it's not just the material stuff that's all good. That's an
after effect. Inside, there's peace. Stillness. Beauty. Love. My
favorite activity is no activity, being with Being and from
there a fountain of appreciation overflows. I'm so happy man. So
happy.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you - that's
all I can say really. That's all that's here for the moment.
Thank you. What a blessing. What a gift. What a show.
Haha <3

I've been thinking now would be a good time to "autolysize," and
this forum seems like the perfect place. (I thought this forum
went dormant years ago. Whatever.)
In one of Jed's books, he wondered aloud what it would be like
if civilization crashed, and things got REAL serious and
desperate. So far, this is not that, but I do feel that another
shoe might well drop. Perhaps a major earthquake...
Oddly enough, I have no sense of panic or even concern for my
"person." Oh, I've taken the appropriate precautions -- washed
my hands a lot more, had some food on hand, kept my gas tank
full -- but maintaining the memento mori mindset makes this a
rather placid time.
I'm -- I dunno -- amused by the sense of panic and
catastrophizing one hears from the media. And how distorted
their narratives are by their biases.
While there does seem to be mass panic, I don't see "panic" in
the faces in the grocery store. I see people who seem shut down.
I see ghosts.
Yesterday, I watched a documentary about this whole "QAnon"
phenomenon. Now, I am definitely not a conspiracy theorist, but
I do feel it in my bones that something "else" is going on here
in Maya. Is Trump "The Last President"? Even more oddly, Johnny
Depp of all people predicted as much prior to Trump's election.

The simulation's programmers have gone into high gear. And the
only appropriate response is gratitude.
I discovered a park tucked away that I was previously unaware
of. It's only 2 blocks away. 2 laps (sometimes more) around
makes for excellent contemplation.
Further...

Thanks Arjuna:
Delighted to hear you are enjoying the ride and using it,
instead of it using you. And yes, he will be the last president.
So grand and event and we get to be here for it... for now
anyways.
Much love,
Jed.

What do you mean by:
We are only witnessing the beginning, the 'meat tenderizing'
stage. The best is yet to come in the not so distant future.
Could you please elaborate? Thanks in Advance.

Yup it's definitely interesting times and witnessing all the
sharing in this forum have seem to make the mind more prepared..
I got interested in beginning to understand the bigger scheme of
things in human history and in general over last decade.
This event has a different feel to it. As in the event gonna be
a reset point from the old game.
Read someone mentioning in another forum "We are 20 mins into a
Disaster Event movie..". I would say it's an apt description.
Last few years mind has been evaluating how the events should
be, how corrupt things here are and blah blah..
But recently things are like .. Governments are corrupt,
Education system is corrupt, Global pandemic is happening ..
Cool..
I now understand mind is focusing on just a small time-frame
from the infinite content consciousness paints out. A small
portion of one huge canvas.
Cycle after cycle..From bad to worse to good to best and again
down the path.. Roller-coaster of events..
Mind is bothered things should be this way or that way, but the
moment things are seen in a higher perspective it's seen as a
Great show..
There is also less fear about the impact of the event on the
personal dream, not much urge to do the prep for coming months.
Mind will mostly probably be shocked in case death situation
will arise, but it seem to be not bothered and thinking about it
for now..
Staying at home gives opportunity to spend more moments with
Self not bothered with events in the world..
Stay safe and best wishes to all for events ahead...

I live in the East Village in Manhattan. It's an interesting
place to be during this whole thing, not because it's more
difficult or stressful, but because everyone is so usually on
top of one another that the difference is pretty stark. WHo've
thought that in the year of our lord 2020, we'd be waiting in
line for a grocery store? In New York City? Is this what
citizens of WWII Poland felt like? Were they also not able to
get gluten-free pasta from Trader Joe's?
I keep thinking of the opening to book two: the dinner party
where the idea of a global cataclysmic event and subsequent
society reset is floated. What would it be like? I always
thought it would be kind of fun. My personal life has become a
paper tiger of sorts, my friends don't even really know me that
well (much to their chagrin), so I thought it would be a breeze!
But the isolation had an unexpectedly stressful effect on me. I
don't know if it's because I'm idle or I can't support my paleo
lifestyle, but I wasn't initially having too much fun.
But now that the dust is settling and it's just showing more
dust that needs to settle, I'm really enjoying this whole thing.
The cog-in-a-wheel sense I sometimes get of modern life has
disappeared, at least for the moment. I'm really content to do
what I would just do naturally if I had no need to do anything:
drink coffee, read books, walk (so much walking...), write, and
take pictures. I was initially bummed that I couldn't travel
anywhere for a while, but we're all stuck where we are, so I'm
just where I should be (yes, I know, that is always the case.
But you know what I mean.)
Final thought: I have become strangely mentally quiet. Anyone
who has lived or visited NYC knows that this place infects you,
and this situation has really seemed to counter that. Ironic
that a virus might act as a cure. A homeless, crazed junkie came
after me yesterday, telling me she knows I stole her money (I
did not). She spit at me, and as I leapt out of the way in a
move that was both impressive and unmanly, I honestly thought to
myself, "How wonderful."

What I’m seeing is the weakening and erosion of much of the
external, social and cultural ... and the already weakened
economic and political edifice... the seemingly seamless forces
that collude to erect and maintain the external boundaries to
individual personae ... the pressure from without that not just
defines but stops the mask from exploding outwards into a
vacuum, as it were.
As bullshit as that is, the result is all of the burgeoning
crazy we’ll presently see much more of... all the celebrity
agonising and social media soul-searching that results when one
reaches out to touch the familiar, only to find it has
moved...or disappeared.
It could lead to a great awakening... but then so could have 911
and the GFC.
Done diddly done

I think this will be done and over soon, yeah I lost a lot of
money and the economy got a big hit but we have had this kinda
crisis before. humans are tough they will survive and status quo
will be maintained.
Btw what is that bigger thing you think is coming? I'm excited
to hear your version of story :P
