Reality is like a big lucid dream

Reality is like a big lucid dream, and guess what?

You're the dreamer

You know how in dreams, you can shape your surroundings, change the outcome, or even fly just by deciding it? It's the same thing here in your waking life. The key is shifting your focus and attention to what you desire, and everything else will align.

The key here is YOU!

Think of it like this: In a lucid dream, when you realize you're dreaming, you stop reacting to the randomness and start creating intentionally. You can suddenly decide you're at the beach or in the middle of your desired city, all it takes is a shift in thought. Your awareness in the dream dictates what happens next.

Now apply that to reality

When you focus on what you want, whether it's love, success, or confidence, and make it your inner truth, your outer world will start to reflect it

Imagine a big projector.

Your mind doesn't know the difference between what’s real and imagined, it just follows your inner script.

So, if you believe you're thriving, loved, and successful, your reality will mirror that back to you. It's all about controlling your inner world.

"Stop trying to change the world since it is only the mirror. Man’s attempt to change the world by force is as fruitless as breaking a mirror in the hope of changing his face. Leave the mirror and change your face. Leave the world alone and change your conceptions of yourself. The reflection will then be satisfactory" - Neville Goddard": from Your Faith is Your Fortune

Imagine you want to manifest more confidence. Instead of waiting for a situation to give you confidence, start by feeling and acting as though you're already the most confident version of yourself. In a dream, if you suddenly decided you had superpowers, you'd just go with it, right? Do the same here, walk, talk, and make decisions like someone who knows their worth. Soon enough, you'll notice how people respond differently to you, how opportunities seem to align, and how your reality changes to fit this new confident self.

"Change your conception of yourself and you will automatically change the world in which you live. Do not try to change people; they are only messengers telling you who you are. Revalue yourself and they will confirm the change" - Neville Goddard, from Your Faith is Your Fortune

You are always in control, just like in those lucid dreams, so start dreaming your reality awake!

Gunman Who Shot Brian Thompson “…used ammunition emblazoned with the words ‘deny,’ ‘defend’ and ‘depose’”

Published 12/5/2024.

“The message left on the ammunition echoes the phrase ‘delay, deny, defend,’ which is commonly used by attorneys and insurance industry critics to describe tactics used to avoid paying claims. It refers to insurers delaying payment, denying a claim and then defending their actions. Health insurers like UnitedHealthcare have become frequent targets of criticism from doctors and patients for complicating access to care” (Balsam et. al.).

BCBS Halts Anaesthesia Payment Policy After Backlash

Published 12/5/2024.

“Initially, the policy update went unnoticed, but that changed Wednesday after UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot killed in New York City. The killing sparked a wave of online vitriol about the U.S. health care system, and Anthem BCBS’s decision roared into the conversation.

A spokesperson for Anthem BCBS said in a statement: ‘There has been significant widespread misinformation about an update to our anesthesia policy. As a result, we have decided to not proceed with this policy change’” (Fattah and Miller).

All you are manifesting is YOURSELF

(SP edition)

Question: Can u explain in depth, like i’m 5

Answer: It's like when you think about your favorite toy and feel happy, even before you have it. You’re not trying to make the toy do something, you’re making yourself feel like it's already yours. When you focus on you being happy, loved, and in a relationship, that’s what shows up in your life. You don’t have to worry about the SP because it's about making you ready for the relationship you want.

You are changing the assumptions you hold about them since there are infinite versions of them that you can experience in your reality

Your SP is just one person, but they act differently depending on who they're around. For example, when they're with their teacher, they act like a student. When they're with their siblings, they act like a sibling. The same person has many different roles, depending on who they're interacting with.

So, when you're manifesting, you're changing how YOU see them and how they show up in YOUR life. In your story, they can show up as the loving partner you want, just like they show up as a student for their teacher or a sibling for their family

You're not actually changing them or making them do anything. What you're really doing is changing how you feel about being in a relationship.

You're imagining and believing that you are already in a loving relationship, no matter who it’s with

Obligatory ask time cuz i was thinkin abt it: what would you say is ur fav romantic scene between Beverly and Picard (bonus: Will and Deanna too)

Now for the rlly big ask: what's yr personal favorite heacanon/fic/ where they get together, and why?

OH man, this was tough (because they are all my favorite).

I decided to go with this little scene from "Cause and Effect".

Beverly's like "I can't sleep because I keep hearing voices from the infinitely repeating timeloop we are stuck in" and Picard is like "I absolutely believe you because I trust you implicitly. Have some milk."

And they are so smiley and sigh-y and Beverly's got her shoelace in her hair and Picard is probably like "wow, I love that she puts shoelaces in her hair just like all the cool kids did in the late 80's and early 90's".

I love that through the entire show, Picard visibly opens up and relaxes when he's around Beverly, one on one. I think she tethers him to his own humanity in a lot of ways, reminds him he is in fact human. And on Beverly's side, I think he is a North Star in her pretty chaotic and lonely life, a constant she can lean on no matter the circumstance.

It's not even a "romantic" scene, but it's such a great example of the warmth between them. It's perfect slowburn fodder. Kindling on the fire.

As for a headcanon on them getting together, I actually LOVED how they got together in the post-Nemesis tie-in novels (that all got nuked to align with ST:Picard and I will NEVER forgive or forget).

The first book of the series, "Death in Winter", has Picard looking for a new CMO after the events of Nemesis (Beverly left to head Starfleet Medical). He gets a call that Beverly has gone missing so, as per normal character choices, he charges to the rescue.

(Spoilers for "Death in Winter")

The whole book is centered around their long friendship and looking back at memories and unrequited feelings while the plot unfolds. Basically, Picard finds her and admits his feelings for her. She initially turns him down and he's crushed. Even Worf and Geordi are worried for him when he gets back. But then he has to go meet his new CMO and BAM... it's Beverly, all apologetic and full of love. Then they get married and have a son named Rene over the course of some 45 books. It was a very satisfying way to continue their story and I loved it all.

Star Trek: Picard season 3 did actually canonize their relationship, gave them a son and all, and it's... fine.

Buddha to his disciples, mini-series (19)

body and mind 

Since both body and mind are made up of cause and effect (skt. Nidana), this body has no substance. The body is a compilation of cause and effect, and is therefore impermanent. If the body had substance, you would be able to do as you wish, by thinking, " be like this, don't be like this," and doing as you wish.

The king, in his realm, can punish what is to be punished, award what is to be awarded, and do as he pleases. And yet he grows old when he does not want to, he gets sick when he does not want to, and not a single thing about himself is as he wishes.

Likewise, our mind has no substance. The mind is also a compilation of cause and effect, and is constantly changing. Our mind thinks evil even though it does not desire, it turns away from good even though it does not need to, and not a single thing is as it should be.

ブッダから弟子たちへ、ミニシリーズ (19)

身心 

身も心も因縁によって出来ているものであるから、この身には実体がない。この身は因縁の集まりであり、だから無常なものである。もしもこの身に実体があるならば、わが身は、かくあれ、かくあることなかれ、と思って、その思いのままになし得るはずである。

王はその領域において、罰すべきを罰し、賞すべきを賞し、自分の思い通りにすることができる。それなのに願わないのに老い、願わないのに病み、望まないのに老い、一つとしてわが身については思うようになるものはない。

それと同じく、われわれのこの心にもまた実体はない。心もまた因縁の集まりであり、常に移り変わるものである。もしも心に実体があるならば、かくあれ、かくあることなかれ、と思って、その通りにできるはずであるのに、心は欲しないのに悪を思い、願わないのに善から遠ざかり、一つとして自分の思うようはならない。
