Haha this feels all spot on.
First of all, thanks Jed for the books, and the forum. The
Trilogy found me in the right spot in the right time I guess.
Hope you are doing well in Cambodia ^^
I've done it the first way already. Not really "done" but rather
dipped my head in. Like you've written suicide looms nearby.
Fortunately didn't decide to throw the gamepiece through the
window (I will do it sooner or later so what difference does it
make?)
I have to admit it was shroom induced. I kind of see why they
are not the way, but let's set it aside for now.
My main question is: isn't those "it's All-One", "divine game
landscape", "I made it all and forgot about it just for sake of
it" just ways a brain that derailed from its "person" tracks
conceptualizes chaos of sensory and mental input - simply in a
novel way?
I'm quite curious how a similar experience would feel when
brain is not overloaded by psychoactive drug.
Or rather than that I'm curious what happens when the thing
hits you when you're ready to face it.
Nevertheless if it's true it's absolutely hillarious.
By the way is there any way to get a hold on FBB tape?
All the best you all!

Hi There:
Thank you for your post, quite thoughtful... and drugs are only
a tickle... sometimes a big one, but to really grokk it, you
need to do the work. I think you have come to undestand that
pretty well.
If you want the recording, please send a request to
cambodianashram@gmail.com. I will send it to you.
Much love and good health.
Jed.

Not the experience here at all. I’m constantly amazed about how
in my dreams thoughts, feelings and interpretations of events
are all generated in response and reaction to dream events,
experiences and sensations, at the level of the dream subject
...and not the level of the dreamer, even though it seems the
same mind generating both.
Lucid dreaming is not a thing - at least not here.
This very phenomenon speaks loudly to me about the nature of the
relationship between dreamer, dreaming and dream... like a
lesson ripe for the learning, about the nature of consciousness.
...sorry if that’s considered cross talk... it just struck me as
I read Flo and your response, Jed, because I have full blown
thoughts in my dreams - but they usually only make sense within
the logic of that particular dream is all.

I popped past the forum back yesterday to see if my response to
the response about the dream experience had elicited further
response and it had, from you Jed, indicating you concurred
…which was mildly interesting because I thought you had been
agreeing with the original poster to whom I was responding,
guessing that I had misread that part.
So last night I'm trapped in my bathroom with an inquisitive and
rather annoying young boy, part of a much larger, more
convoluted and complex scenario that included me smoking my own
rather than accepting one from a young and attractive, nervously
edgy Russian girl, at a pop-up karaoke bar in the small urban
park nearby, whose equally attractive Brazilian boyfriend at the
mic also only smoked his own and who, she informed me without
implied criticism, was gay. I should've guessed by the glitter
encrusted cigarette butts in the ashtray at her table. It was
before that, in the nice big bathroom back at my place, I locked
the door and turned around to go and found the boy there.
Because of the party outside I couldn't just tell him to get out
and we agreed to take turns. And even though he was annoying, he
was sticking to the other side of the big bathroom and not
looking, yet I was unable to let go and urinate, because he was
there. I just couldn't.
I woke up and my bladder was full…I'd drunk too much water in
yesterday's humidity… but wondered if I'd just go back to sleep.
I kind of dozed, as I faded, wondering why I couldn't just let
go and urinate, right there in my own bed. And it occurred to
me: what kind of conditioning….?
I read somewhere years ago in my studies that the reflexes built
in the process of toilet training permeate even the dreaming
mind, the failure to close that connection which results in
partially-trained bedwetters. Over time the muscular 'letting
go' response associated with relaxing the sphincter area down
there becomes a fused connection, allied to the same area of the
brain that stops your body thrashing in dreams where you are
moving around and doing things.
And then I wondered curiously what part of A Course in Miracles
applied here and the first thing that popped into my head was
"Forgiveness"… my one function here, so, duh. Forgiveness, as
you'll recall, is about letting go of criticism and grievances
towards others. Not because you're the bigger person, but
because in a dream nothing is real, including sin, and such
feelings are merely part of the larger dissociation that created
and now maintains the sensations and certainty of separation in
what is only ever One.
And then I was really awake. Conditioning.
Here's the thing: you actually can let go and urinate in a
dream, or even awake in a bed. You just have to cut through a
lot of conditioning in order to make it happen… or your waking
self needs to be somehow incapacitated or psychologically
traumatised. I know about the former from when, as a younger
adult self, after a heavy night on the town and confused about
which level of the dream I was inhabiting at the time, wet my
bed. The latter is well-documented in psychology studies.
So the mind seems very adept at retaining the larger context.
Even in the dream, the narrative wrapped itself around the
waking 'reality' that I was asleep in bed…my dream self - which
is no different to the waking self, just inhabiting a different
but yet not unconnected context - experienced a physiological
need which permeated the dream but, because of that
conditioning, projected into my dream a small child that kept me
from wetting my bed. In the dream he was annoying because of the
inconvenience of him being there, not because he was
unendearing.
As it turns out, he was a small saviour, although I couldn't see
it in that context… how very ACIM.

Thanks for sharing. No question from you, no answer from me.
But, interesting. I believe it bears the nickname: shy bladder.
Much love, Jed

Hi there:
I have responded, but if you don't receive it, here is a copy:
Hi Dear:
Have you collapsed time and space on your experiences with your
mother? And also have you vanished the identity 'I am
unloveable/I am loveable', also 'I am loved by my mother/I am
unloved by my mother.' They are what you should try and the more
you resist trying them, the more freedom they hold.
Love ya, Jed.
Talk soon,
Love ya, Jed.

Hi Jed,
What does collapsing time and space mean? How does one do this?
I theoretically understand that time and space may not be true.
