To be enlightened is to be ordinary.

At least this is what popped in my head right after surgery while thinking of Zen Buddhism and believing I understood it completely, then did the worst possible thing: tried to consciously understand what I understood.

In a fertile and beautiful land lived a king, prosperous and wise in the ways of the world. The king was compassionate toward his subjects, strong in his will, and was in love with the woman of his deepest wishes. Both worldly riches and the love of his people were abundantly available to the king, yet he still had doubts and times when he was unhappy. He pondered deeply the source of his unhappiness.

One day, word came to his kingdom that an enlightened man had traversed the boarders of his kingdom, and was dwelling somewhere within. The king, set upon knowing the source of happiness and always willing to entertain new ways of thinking, sent out his best rangers to find the enlightened man, that he may converse with him and find his answer.

Not long passed when the rangers returned with word that the man was outside the capital, sitting near a stream on the outskirts of a forest. It was conveyed that the man seemed to be sleeping. The king thought about this, and decided to visit the man, instead of disturbing him and bringing him to the capital by force. He set out on horseback toward the man the very next morning.

Soon, the king came to the area where the enlightened man was, and he saw him, middle aged, dressed in robe, sitting near a small, clear creek with eyes almost closed. The king observed awhile, and decided to simply ask his question. He approached the man and introduced himself as king of these lands, and relayed his wish for a discourse. The sitting man acknowledged the king, and agreed to his discourse.

Here, the king explained his dilemma, of having abundance of worldy things and love, yet finding himself at times unhappy. And so he asked, "O man, you who have devoted your life to attaining enlightenment, what is the source of true happiness, unconditional and pure?" The enlightened man smiled, and said, "That is a good question." The king waited for further answer, but none came. So he implored, "What is the answer?" and the man again smiled, and remained as he was. The king, in his wisdom, pondered a moment the mans inaction. He pondered a great while, until his thoughts fell silent, and in that moment, he realized the man in front of him had answered his question. He left that place never again forgetting the true source of happiness.

This is just my quick two cents before I go off to bed for the night.

This is most likely a result of something in your environment that has had and impact on you and your brain is trying to deal with. I believe that this "demon" of sorts is probably appearing also because of largely what you mentioned above when you talked about your brain "spooking" you.

My advice, take a long break from /x/ , avoid dwelling in darkness (literally and metaphorically), stay occupied, talk often about your nightmares with your mother if you can and if you wish.

Also, you can go to the advice board and ask how to deal with nightmares or look it up on google. I can't really give more detailed insight than that at this time.

Stay safe friend.

>>17084795

I can see everything else you said but:

>take a long break from /x/

I don't even come to this board often, honestly.

I'd say that while it's possible your dreams are being hijacked by a malicious entity, it could be something more subconscious.

I, too, have extremely unsettling dreams all the time about monsters and murderers, but after discussing it with my psychologist, we've more or less chalked it up to anxiety and general depression.

Ask yourself, are you unsatisfied with your life? Is there something else bothering you in the waking world that could manifest itself in your dreams?

Not all monsters are paranormal.

Here's a fun experiment you can do to find out!

1. Contact a deadly illness, preferably Ebola or AIDS.
2. Take a borax crystal and attempt to heal yourself with it.
3. If you die, it doesn't work.

Science!

This just looks like a shitty shoop, so have a cute pic some anon drew.

"It was better than going to the moon," said Armstrong

A friend's father was in the expedition with Armstrong. He doesn't like talking about anything regarding the expedition.

Does anyone have any more information? I really want to go there seeing as it's in my own country, but when asking people who know a bit about it(like my friend), they say that the indigenous people from the jungle know the opening to the cave but won't show it to tourists or people who have not earned their trust. They say that aliens/beings told them that the knowledge in that cave was to be given only to humanity when humanity was ready for that knowledge.

Yea I mean just look at me. I broke the barrier of times already.

Basically two particles can be connected from astronomical distances and travel many times the speed of light so that they can control one another

>we are somewhere else right now controlling our brains
>when we die we reincarnate into another brain

Think about it

A lot of the people who try to give a scientific explanation to magick or law of attraction or whatever like to use quantum entanglement.
It could also explain telekinesis, mind reading, and possibly divination.

I feel like I'm missing something, but it does sound plausible if it works like we think it does.

>>17084025
That's what I thought after learning about it. It's the science of fiction

>>17083823

Is there a figure in Asatru that is noted for granting knowledge to humanity? Is it possible to summon such a figure (or even a servant of such a figure)?

>>17083926

Odin's realm is wisdom my friend. Talk to him, bring him a gift and introduce yourself. If he likes you, maybe he will give you a visit.

>>17083823
It is more then Racism. The Old Gods are territorial. The Gods of Egypt were in Egypt, the Gods of Rome in Rome, The Gods of Babylon, Babylon... you get the picture. So Each localities God and followers disliked the other peoples Gods and Followers.

Are you an idiot?

have you heard the good news of the gnostics or the ways of the hermetics, theurgists or even trans humanists? weve been working on the problem for thousands of years. its recurring, almost the resting state for our part of the cosmos but many have found the egress and the keys...

The solution is equanimity, yes?
