Nothing...
He taught me (you, us) nothing.
And that's the best lesson we could ever receive in the dream
state.
TR - in this sense - is the immunity to external appearances,
miracles, illusions, thoughts, emotional attachments, bounds,
gains, losses.
Nothing really happened, so nothing really matters... not even
these words, this forum, this world.

You can burn all the Jed and in the ashes one diamond remains,
name "further".
Human nature and the world around will do everything possible to
make you believe in some fairy tale and stop. It's just natural.
The only right thing you can do is at least change the direction
of your movement. From a panic movement from darkness and fear,
to a black hole inside.
Everything else is don't really matter and will come by itself.
So everything that Jed ever did is just trying to turn others in
the opposite direction and keep us that way for as long as
needed. And he was good.

an old grave,
hidden away at the foot of a deserted hill,
over run with rank weeds growing unchecked year after year,
there is no one left to tend the tomb,
the occasional woodcutter passes by,
once I was his pupil,
a youth with shaggy hair,
learning deeply from him by the narrow river,
one morning I set off on my solitary journey,
in the years passed between us in silence,
now I have returned to find him at rest here,
how can I honor his departed spirit,
I pour a dipper of pure water over his tombstone and offer a
silent prayer,
the sun suddenly disappears behind the hill,
and I am enveloped by the roar of the wind in the pines,
I try to pull myself away but cannot,
a flood of tears soaks my sleeves.

I just wanted to give a shout out to Davidr for some reason it's
been on my mind so just need to go with it and say that I loved
your poem or thoughts there or whatever we want to call it, just
they touched me, kind of jerked my heart right up and into my
throat there in sort of a very human way, just a nice emotional
reaction that produced a few tears, just that's some recognition
of the human condition, it's been lost on most but when you find
one, well it's something, just I call it divine so thank you and
just some love, just there's a sort of bravery in being
completely honest that I want to affirm or recognize or say,
well what can I say but it's the way to go. Just, in my
opinion, there is nothing better than this.

I was deeply touched by Davidr's poem, too. I've read it again
and again. Thank you, Davidr.
I miss you, Jed.

Jed Sir's crab theory is a great teaching to see through the
challenges one encounter in the journey.
Crab theory being, when all the crabs are put in a bucket..
everyone pull down the one trying to get out. Result being no
one can escape.
It's a personal journey and every attachment to people, idea and
family pulls you down for sure.
Definitely my experience, can't detach completely from the
family dream. Gets caught up in family drama too often now.
You can't wake other up for sure until one has completed the
journey and if one is not on similar journey.
All effort to wake or even stay together with closed ones ends
up with lot of effort wasted.
Salutations to the Master.

Memento Mori.
List my believes and break them one by one.
Examine painful memories.

Almost all the useful lessons Jed has taught me were through the
Nav Series. I had a bit of a vacation in January, so I did a lot
of contemplations and dissociated myself from some of the
aspects of my so-called personality. Today I went back to work
and instead of people I saw gremlins. Don't ask me why I call
them gremlins. I could call them chimps, but there is too much
life in chimps, these were more like puppets or walking
costumes. The picture of humanity was shattered for me. It's not
that they are dumb or smart, evil or kind... These creatures we
call humans are not human. Nobody can define that word. Nobody
can define any word actually. Perhaps, that's one of the lessons
Jed had taught me.
It was very strange today. I came home, finally found myself
alone and then reflected back to the day I've had. Back to
sanity. None of the people I talked to were alive. None of them
were thinking or even trying to think. They were so mechanical
and lifeless. I haven't cried for a long time. Not since my Dad
died 8 years ago, but today I cried out loud, because it's a
world full of nothing. It would matter, if it existed. I don't
think it does. It's just a silly spectacle, where actors ran
away from the cemetery and pretend they are alive...
I miss Jed. I am grateful to the person who's maintaining the
forum for the opportunity to share, though. I feel like I have
nowhere to go. Because I am nowhere. I don't know what it is -
symptom of getting closer to the truth or clinical insanity -
but strangley enough I don't care right now. Life becomes
abnormal, if you take Jed's teachings to heart. Hopefully I did.
I know nothing about the world.
