Not sure what perfect really means and what everything means either? Depends on context. Whether they are speaking from Awareness and then "everything is perfect" could be a pointing out. The conceptual mind apprehending on the meaning, then going with it, creating a story about how perfect it is or how some things are not perfect etc is not really what it it is about. I would just abide in pure awareness and letting everything that comes up be. Thoughts, emotions etc. Let the energy run out of fuel. Coming to a conclusion about the ineffeable is not possible. Because the ineffeable cannot be put in a box.

If in doubt I can recommend a pointing out by a qualified dzogchen teacher. It makes a tangible difference from being stuck in mind vs being Awareness.

Correct as in my experience. It can jump levels but just saying that does not portray what is going on in its entirety. SM created major energetic imbalances as I mentioned many times on this site.

Thanks for the reminder. I have some pains in right arm due to computer work so that meditation is a good remedy for that. This time I could also sense an unblocking of the heart while doing the meditation.

Fresh out of twice doing the long form then I felt like moving through time. I was doing the form in my living room and I could sense my body lying on the sofa behind me. When resting I usually lie down on the sofa. I am not sure how to interpret this? 😁 So I did the form again, very slow and in the last move where the hands move down in front of you it was as if seeing life as a movie being winded back and I was there in a big space. How have you been experiencing FP lately?

The correct term is 'creating energetic imbalances'.

One more thing. I find Dvd7 med #4 good for awareness meditation. Do that first or end your meds with #4, then abide in pure awareness for the amount of minutes you like doing.

From Namkhai Norbu, dzogchen master There are the turnings of the wheel in Buddhism. As for any split, I don't see any, it is a matter of Destiny / affinity.

One thing I have learned by sitting everyday doing nothing is to let the mind do its thing and just watch it by not reacting or following stories. Also being verbally quiet and let it air out until there is no reaction left in the body-mind. This is undoing the do-er which itself is an object in awareness.

If one is intellectualising awakening Life will throw things at you to shake things up in your system.

Exactly, this is freedom.

Something like VortexHealing is much deeper than psychotherapy but sometimes a mix is good for releasing blocks in your system. Facing a person revealing your inner thoughts and feelings can aid in the path since the ego doesn't like vulnerability. Ultimately the path is to let go of the 'I' - marinate in Presence and let the mind release itself.

Move to South East Asia.

There is no anchor really. Like Ramana Maharshi says the Heart is Reality. It is neither inside nor outside. Pointing out by a master makes this obvious at once. You see Reality.

Yes but... You see?
