Tree of Knowledge is what you get from books, from gurus, from audios…
99.99% of the articles you read on the internet are Tree of Knowledge. Untested by the author, not a personal experience, hearsay. Truth repeated is a lie. I can count on one hand the writers who write from personal experience. The rest sound authoritative, but they are inauthentic.
The only authenticity there is is being authentic of your inauthenticity: tell the truth that you are pretending, lying, manipulating, etc.
How do I know? I am not an empath for nothing, lol. I feel it. And then I muscle test asking all-knowledge for confirmation.
The most successful writers, for example, on Medium are full of sh!t… and if you learn from them, you learn Tree of Knowledge stuff… straight from the morass.
Truth repeated is a lie. Lie because it is now your personal experience. No discernment, not yours.
The internet made all the tree of knowledge stuff available, and people are getting stupider and
What is the difference? An empath can feel others feelings. Mostly they feel them mixed with their own.
An empath is able to tell feelings apart, but their relationship to empathy is being a victim of it.
I will not talk about the people who claim to be empaths… they are like the gipsies in many cities in the US, or in the streets of the country I am from: they are frauds: they are observant, good listeners, they will use your response as a guide to continue in the same direction or not.
They are fortune tellers, magicians, fake psychics: get paid to dupe you. And surprisingly you love to pay them.
A True Empath is a scientist. A True Empath is laser sharp in their aim, they are accurate and astute in their assessments of your feelings. A True Empath feels YOUR feelings 10 times stronger than they feel their own, and therefore can tell them apart.
A True Empath can feel emotions and identify them, and can feel bodily feeling
The conversation started with me asking how many itch mites I have on me. The numbers just didn’t add up… so I asked: “You don’t know, do you?” And Source admitted that it didn’t know.
The conversation continued about what Source knows and how.
Source does not have eyes to see. Source does not feel. Source only senses. And that is why itch mites can elude its observation: itch mites look and feel dead, inert, not alive, when you observe them. They have legs, they must have legs, because they move when you don’t watch them. So, unless an itch mite moves, Source doesn’t know it’s there. And obviously all I can do is guess… A conversation with Source plays out almost completely inside what I can think of… i.e. in the 2-3-4-5% of what is knowable.
My most influential teachers teach new expectations through invalidating the ones that create a life of misery.
Ben Settle is one of those teachers.
I subscribed to his newsletter and then quit it after a year or two. Why? because for a time he was more interested in world building and world domination than what concerned me more: a healthy business that served me. And he was more political than I could stomach… so I quit.
I had benefited from my subscription… How? I managed to double my monthly income and at the same time reduced the amount of work it took. I also doubled my self-respect… hm.
In an article, I write the whole idea of “facing the tiger” but here it is again:
Behavioral scientists were visiting this village in India. They wanted to find out how living next to the forest of the great white tigers effected the dreams of the children of the village.
The great white tiger, whenever it got hungry, visited the village and took a child.
This is what they found:
The little children, between three and 6, dreamed about hiding from the tiger.
Children between age 6-10 dreamed about outwitting the tiger
Children 10-14 dreamed about outrunning the tiger
Children over 14 dreamed about facing the tiger.
As you see, as they matured they took a more and more courageous position.
Your case, your issue, your problems are your tigers.
Your relationship to your tiger indicates your maturity, and your ability to be successful, happy, peaceful, and content in life. Find your tiger and face it.
Disappointment is when you get something you didn’t expect.
I expected the readers to be here to get something, and not to give. And they didn’t disappoint.
I expected people to not see beyond their noses and they didn’t… but still, kudos to the ten brave souls that forced themselves to think something.
It was hard, wasn’t it? Now I am talking to those ten.
What would happen if you did this every day? You’ll start to build some serious muscle in problem solving, and by the time you actually need those muscles, you would have them.
I promised, you delivered, so I must tell you what happened next in that story.
You know that I blasted the little girl… and I did. I was like you: stopped on the surface.
But then: I didn’t sleep well. I woke up with a question:
a positive statement or declaration, often without support or reason
As opposed to assessment which is a mere opinion, assertion is a fact that you are willing to bring evidence to prove if asked… but you don’t offer it.
I have been wondering what makes someone pick a certain guru, what capacity, what characteristics… This is the transcript of an audio of a conversation I had with Nancy, my brainstorming buddy… Listening to it is like going on a scenic helicopter ride… Enjoy
I just had one of the most intriguing conversations with my friend, Nancy.
One of the things I love about Nancy is that she always delivers the results I need, even when she is off.
Yesterday she suggested that I put up my articles on youtube… and I had a troubling question about that.
What is it that people are attracted to when they follow a guru?
Why you should have an empath re-evaluate the stuff you learn… the stuff others teach?
The obvious reason is because I can reliably muscle test if something is true or not.
But the less obvious reason is more important:
I can actually feel what happens inside a human being when something shifts.
One example: in Vishen Lakhiani’s Consciousness Engineering introduction he tries to prove a point. He says: maids in hotels have to run up and down, bend, carry, and yet they are often pudgy, in spite of all that physical activity.
When they are made conscious of this fact, that with all that physical exercise they
