one system, you enter a new one. It’s just different. The old system consists of fears and illusions where no matter what you achieve, you’ll always feel unfulfilled. That’s the illusion of Maya, the old frequency. The new frequency is the opposite. You accept things as they are, feel content with what you have, and simply engage in what you love – not for money. Perhaps now you’ll understand “Forrest Gump” differently. People have watched it a thousand times but never saw the core message. It’s a film that shows a person who lives by new rules, not the old ones. Forrest’s girlfriend lives by the old rules and becomes a drug addict, while Forrest himself is naive, not aiming for billions or wealth. This film is unique because it shows the psychology of a future person, someone who doesn’t constantly look at others or try to copy them. Pay attention to Forrest Gump’s psychology.
To help you understand, I once told my mother to read about the illusion of Maya and study it. I said to her, “Notice that when you’re engrossed in something, nothing else matters, the outside world doesn’t bother you. But the moment you start interacting with acquaintances or check social media, you begin to feel anxious or worried that you’re missing out on life.” These thoughts are transmitted to your head like a virus. It’s not about you. I’m the same way. We all are. If I were to look every day at how my classmates or colleagues are living, if I were subscribed to them, I would begin to feel like a failure. I’d see them with wives, children, cars, and vacations in Italy, while I’m sitting here doing nothing, just writing some books. That’s how those thoughts start creeping in. But to prevent them, I cut the source, I pulled the plug on that connection. Now I’m happy. So, your feelings of unhappiness? You’re the one transmitting them to yourself. I unplugged the source, but you keep it connected because you want to, because you like to torment yourself.
Question: You mentioned that a super-level is being someone without anything. Two key factors are attitude and languages. For a long time, reading your works, I understood that one needs to be someone without anything. But I couldn’t reach that state because I still needed elements of support, people, circumstances, money, and so on. Without anything, I could simply fall into despair. My question is: how can a person who has a lot of clutter in their mind, sins, take that step into the world of self- awareness and emptiness? Is this step, in your view, a huge one to take, even to touch it by 10%? Or is it actually small, and we just need to understand how to step into it?
