I've heard about DM problems in Nostr. Apparently , you need a dedicated relay for them. What I said was that I suddenly remembered that friend gifted me Bitwig 8 Track Legacy a couple of years ago. I've now activated it in Linux Mint. Any quick start tips?

Yesterday, I found the lost chord.
I was revisiting a song I'd written with a friend about 30 years ago, with a view to re-recording it . I used to have a cassette with the recording on, but it somehow got lost during a house move.
It was the final chord in the chorus which allowed it to resolve comfortably.
Until yesterday, I hadn't been able to 'hear' that chord but finally, yesterday evening, I did.
By relaxing and letting go sufficiently, the 'lost chord' magically appeared again.
Now all I have to do is see if I can get away with singing it in as high a register as I did 30 years ago. ;)

Thanks, Matt. I was just trying to see if one of the nostr apps would upload video ok. This "short" doesn't have much content, but over the weeks I want to say more on releasing because, aside from meditation, it's the one thing that's helped me the most.
Also, once demonstrated, it can be self-applied - no need for lengthy seminars, tutorials, or coaching sessions. :)
I aim to offer intro sessions for Zaps. :)

One of the applications of releasing is dissolving resistance to goals. And it's very simple - deceptively simple.
Let me explain.
When we have a goal, we tend to fight ourselves unconsciously. There's almost always a belief getting in the way.
This comes from wanting. Sounds strange, doesn't it? Well, if you think about it, when we want things, it means that we don't have them - there's an unconscious sense of lack.
When we go for goals from a place of equilibrium - free from attachment to any particular outcome, we're free from wants that get in the way.
The most basic wants are the need for approval, control, security and survival.
When we release these wants, there is a tendency or a greater possibility for our goals to become realized.
Ultimately, when you fully let go of all these wants I've listed, there will be no need for goals in the same way that you once thought there was.
At that point, goals will arise spontaneously from your sense of peace or equilibrium.
In the next post, we'll look at attachment, aversions, and polarities.

The Mechanism of Letting Go
Letting go involves being aware of a feeling, letting it come up, staying with it, and letting it run its course without wanting to make it different or do anything about it. It means simply to let the feeling be there and to focus on letting out the energy behind it.
The first step is to allow yourself to have the feeling without resisting it, venting it, fearing it, condemning it, or moralizing about it. It means to drop judgment and to see that it is just a feeling. The technique is to be with the feeling and surrender all efforts to modify it in any way.
Let go of wanting to resist the feeling. It is resistance that keeps the feeling going. When you give up resisting or trying to modify the feeling, it will shift to the next feeling and be accompanied by a lighter sensation. A feeling that is not resisted will disappear as the energy behind it dissipates.

KARMA
NOTHING COMES
FROM NOTHING
"Cause and effect are just a way of thinking about things" – Nisargadatta Maharaj
"There is no karma in the state of Parabrahma" – Nisargadatta Maharaj
Question: Are there universal laws like karma?
Answer: No, there are only commonly agreed upon perceptions and experiences.
Relatively and metaphorically speaking when the human collective believes these commonly agreed upon perceptions collectively they become archetypical perceptions
A collective memory
A collective logic
A collective explanation and ergo gain great energy and force and that is why they repeat themselves.
The collective memory (mind) then gives them deep significance and meaning and concludes they are laws, or cosmic laws.

There are neither cosmic laws, nor is there a nature of consciousness either purified or unpurified.
There is only consciousness which appears to appear on or out of the Absolute.

Scarcity is *mind* made.
The realisation of this is utilised by those who are greedy and controlling (the route of which is fear).
We are innately sovereign - and have dominion. But if we point the finger of blame and make "them" or anything external the source of scarcity, we forget this - making ourselves their victims.

Arthur Edward Waite was a British poet and scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters. He was a Freemason, as well as being a member of the SRIA and Golden Dawn, and spent most of his life in or near London, connected to various publishing houses and editing a magazine, The Unknown World.
He also co-created the very popular Rider Waite Tarot Deck.
Here's one of his poems, read by various narrators on Librivox - including yours truly. :)

Thanks so much and yes, some of the tracks *do* have a melancholic sound it's true. It's quite likely that when some were written I was feeling emotional, and the music was an immediate expression of that. Therapeutic! :)

The so-called thinking of the ego-mind was so tyrannical that its use throughout your lifetime deadened many of your feelings. It led you so far from the truth that you no longer trust in it. It confused the smallest issues to such a degree that it left you unable to respond purely to anything. The Your only recourse to this situation in the past was focus. You thus applied your thoughts to learning subjects of a specific nature. Through this focus you believed you accomplished much. You congratulated yourself on having the discipline required to train your mind to focus and to learn, or shamed yourself when you were unable to do so. To those most skilled in this training of the ego-mind worldly rewards have long been given. These people attain degrees and skills and then further apply the discipline that they have learned by using their skills and knowledge in the world for even greater rewards. These rewards have further emphasized the importance of such focused thoughts and thus further entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you could learn the truth of who you are through these same means was the fallacy that the early teaching of A Course of Love sought to dispel.

Did you know Abe Lincoln was a mystic?
Apparently so.
I recently solo recorded an audiobook for #Librivox :
Abraham Lincoln: The Practical Mystic
Francis Grierson (1848 - 1927)
A knowledge of the influences which ruled the life of Lincoln, the greatest of practical mystics, is essential now that a new form of paganism and slavery threatens humanity.
In Lincoln's time the black slaves of America had to be freed; in our time the white slaves of Europe have to be freed. We have returned to the conquest. History is being repeated, but on a far vaster scale. The whole world is groaning under the threats and deeds of tyranny that seeks to become absolute. What Abraham Lincoln stood for in the middle of the nineteenth century the English-speaking peoples must stand for at the beginning of the twentieth. Materialism produced Prussian autocracy. A spiritual power brought America safely through the ordeals of the Civil War. But the material and the spiritual cannot both rule at the same time. One must yield authority to the other. And we cannot succeed by denying the very thing which caused Lincoln to triumph over all enemies and obstacles. - Summary from the book
Genre(s): Biography & Autobiography, Psychology
Language: English
