I play piano. I don’t practice, I play. I play to hear the pleasing sounds, not to ‘get better’ although a byproduct of playing regularly is improvement. When I’m playing, the whole world is tuned out, I see the keys but my mind is focused on the sounds and tonal intervals . I make a lot of mistakes but am nuetral towards them, I simply play parts again and again until it sounds ‘right’ and I enjoy the process of finding the right notes. I don’t read any music or play covers, I just pick a key and use the circle of fifths to improvise melodies and chord progressions into something meaningful and pleasing to my ears.

DarkSpectrum@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Men who feel like fully functional people, how did you get there?7·1 month agoMight be a controversial take but it’s my experience: psychedelics. Dramatically improved my self and general awareness, feel way more connected to existence and the rest is history.
The trick is:
- Dosage. Keep it low to moderate.
- Have a suitable mindset and location
- Recognise them as tools to be used and put down once no longer needed.

But your peepee or boobies shrink by an inch or bra size each time you use it
DarkSpectrum@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would life be like if reincarnation was a proven thing and we could remember all our past lives?1·4 months agoThis is a great question which brings ones thoughts close to understanding the very nature of existence.
If you were god, with a singular and all encompassesing consciousness, without any concept of a self seperate to others, then you would be alone, and eventually bored.
So we forget that we are god and variety becomes the spice of life, as ‘they’ say.
You dont’t even have to believe in anything to understand this. Just for a moment, suspend disbelief, and just toy with the idea that you’re god. Little you, capital G. But, so is everyone and everything else around you. In fact, your true self is everything, everywhere, all at once for all time.
If this is true then past lives, future lives, remember them, forsee them, it doesn’t matter. What matters is, you keep going.
As an exercise, try taking a walk around your local store with the idea in your mind that you and everyone around you are inhabited by the same entity. How does it make you feel? Are you there for them or are they there for you? Can you see yourself being seen by yourself?
I believe the closest you one can be to god, is to understand that you are it, without actually having the experience. But this knowledge is what begins to build an enlightened mind and at once this person sees the absurdity of things like war or poverty. However, other things like sexual intercourse become a little unusual.
Ultimately, you want to forget. Many will discard these words as nonsense, reinstate disbelief and carry on with the delusion for many, many lives to no end. But thats ok, for humans are but one avenue of the godly experience.
DarkSpectrum@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Would you use a self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your favorite sites?English14·5 months agoAI uses so much more resources than standard search engines and it comes at a time when the whole planet needs to slow down climate change
Who said there is no death in heavan? Without death, there cannot be birth and nothing would ever happen.
Sadly this was my thought too. When DOGE plugs everything back in, its likely to be paired with AI and big government contracts.

You don’t need ideas, you just need to start.
DarkSpectrum@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you shit your pants, do you keep going with your day or is your day over?4·5 months agoDepends on your plans for the day. If you’re heading down to the swimming pool then everything might just work itself out.
BJJ used to be my method of meditation and focus. Rolling with eyes closed, feeling the situation. Its hard to be distracted when someone much bigger is lying on top of you! Tends to sharpen ones focus.
