Inherently Loving and Supportive or Inherently Malicious and Evil?

I remember about 6 years ago when the biggest debate was whether or not the world was round or flat. I remember being so offended that so many people denied science, logic, and common sense. Fast forward to 2020 and the same people want to now dream up and buy into new outrageous conspiracies.

While it’s easy to judge these people as unintelligent, I think this doesn’t have to do with intelligence as much as it has to do with whether or not they perceive the world as inherently loving and supportive or inherently malicious and evil. Either way you choose, you’re right!

What you think about, you bring about… or, as the great Wayne Dyer once said, “Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change.”

Where do I fit into this?

Admittedly, I don’t always trust everyone and everything (nor do I expect anyone to). I know there are plenty of real conspiracies, corruption, and manipulation and I’m often outspoken about some of it… but make no mistake. I believe in humanity and something much greater. I know that there is more love shaping the world than hate. I trust the bigger picture.

I have long gone through my dark days in hell. I know that mindset that says “it’s me alone against the world.” I know what it’s like to be lied to, stolen from, hurt, and betrayed by some of those closest to me. I know what it’s like to hate someone so bad that I would gladly end it all for the opportunity to hurt them in the worst possible way.

I also know what it is like to have someone I never imagined help me out of a crisis when all hope was lost. I know what it is like to be given opportunities that I never thought I would have. And, I know what it is like to forgive… myself and others, and how great it feels to have that huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

My views of the world shifted during these transitions. It’s easy to think the world is conspiring against you when you’re betrayed, disempowered, and or hurting inside. It’s convenient to play the victim role but, it’s definitely not behooving to.

The Astronaut Overview Effect

by Neil Leave a Comment

Jason Silva – The Astronaut Overview Effect, Hacking consciousness with VR and psychedelics for a better, gentler, kinder world.

Some only care about themselves.

Some only care about their family’s fate.

Some only care about their country.

Some only care about their state.

Some only care about the past.

Some only care about power.

Some only care about the future.

Some only care about the hour.

So now, I say with heed, at what point does your care recede?

Pleasure Through Purpose

by Neil Leave a Comment

Einstein once said…

“If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.”

~ Albert Einstein

This is because goals create a sense of “purpose”… even if that purpose is just to attain a certain goal. With all due respect, I would like to improve Mr. Einstein quote by changing it to:

“If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a purpose, not to people or things.”

~ Neil Sargisian

Goals can be big or small but a purpose is always a big deal. Any goal worth having is inspired by a purpose.

My purpose is to continue to learn, experience, understand, grow, share, love, create, inspire, contribute, and unite. That’s what brings me the most joy. The experiencing, understanding, and growing parts are sometimes challenging. But who in their right mind would want to play a game that wasn’t a bit challenging at times anyway? That is to assume we are all even playing on purpose ( play on words ). Maybe we are unknowingly actually playing someone elses game, simply because we have not constructed a game of our own worth truly playing. This begins with PURPOSE. Now, with a purpose, you can play the game with allies who share the same purpose. Finding your purpose will always align you with allies, and with such you will have more love for the game. In this game you can’t really lose because the only thing at risk are your illusions, and the emotions you have tied to your ‘perceived’ reality. Even when we lose, we win. It’s all just a thrill ride down the rabbit hole into self discovery land.

Don’t get me wrong. I am in no way putting down goals. Goals can be wonderful but a purpose will align you with reason and give deep meaning to your life on a quantum level.

Thank you for sharing it with me and Happy Gregorian New Year!

God Consciousness

by Neil Leave a Comment

“As an extension of God. I practice God Consciousness daily. This often involves imagining the most beautiful and loving God I can possibly conceive of (which is always evolving). I then reminding myself that this God is hungry for self discovery and knowledge, just as I am, and that this prime creator looks to me, from within me. From macro to micro and down to the deepest quantum levels, WE ARE ONE.”
