I am aware
    #18753821 - 08/25/13 01:46 AM (10 years, 5 months ago)

of my own utter stupidity. I've been trying to figure out life for dummies, but it took 30 years too long to realise how stupid I am. I'm wondering how to better apply this awareness to life demands. Advice?

Stop giving a fuck and embrace it but I get the feeling from your posts you already have :tongue:. Think of how stupid the average person is then realise 50% are stupider. Use your stupidity to your advantage for example by thinking things through a bit more often instead of just following your gut. Take your realisation as a humbling fact of life and appreciate what you have more. :shrug:

LOL well done. That is GREAT DEEP wisdom! it reminds me of reading the book The Cosmic Serpent. He went to the jungle thinking he was this all dead-educated westerner bla bla, but when he drank Ayahuasca, this huge serpent spirits put him right, and humbled him telling him he didn't know anything haha
Quote:


So continuing with the video—after encouragement from an Indian Ayahuescero, Jeremy drinks the sacred brew, and he begins seeing visions of magical serpents who telepathically tell him “things that were painfully true about myself” directly he is a very small human being 11:00 “ And the first things they said was you are just a tiny human being, and I could see looking at them that they were right. And that my ordinary perspective on reality—rationalist, materialist, humanist had limits, starting with my presuppositions that what my eyes were showing me didn’t exist. I could see that my worldview had bottomless arrogance, which caused it to collapse in front of my eyes, at which point I had to vomit” In the Indigenous language the name of the sacred plant is both to vomit and serpent. So the name of the Plant which gives knowledge is “Vomit Serpent”

He had amazing visions including the vision of a hand and leaf both showing the same pattern of veins and each flashing one after the other very fast in front of his eyes…..He later finds a leaf, and looks at in in comparison with his hand in the sun and sees that they do share the same patterning and feel the same. So from feeling a tiny human being he suddenly felt one with nature, like a plant but ‘hey I can walk around’. ….42:00” it is not that nature lacks intelligence, it is that our own concepts (which divide humans from ‘nature’) do. You with me?
…I think it is important to be aware of the presuppositions of one’s own culture”

You are aware of ignorance, this means you, awareness, are wisdom itself, or you could not know ignorance

Dont try to figure anything out, just be directly aware of yourself as much as possible, and ignorance will leave you, as soon as your attention start thinking, stop it & just be self-aware, this is all you need, deeply trust you have the wisdom of the universe within you at all times
