Hold onto your seats as Amanda and Alex dive into the theory of the holographic universe. Exploring experiments in quantum physics as well as a puzzling outcome to an experiment of the way we seemingly react to a world “out there”. Listen in as we see how this is at all relevant to living more freely and with even more awe of The Wonder Land

Alex and Amanda explore the concept of "waking up"

"The point is to wake up, not to earn a Ph.D. In waking up."

Jed McKenna

What if the only thing keeping us from waking up is our expectations of what it should be like?

What is waking up is not a big event? What if it is subtle and immediate yet indescribably profound?

“Try to imagine what it will be like to go to sleep and never wake up... now try to imagine what it was like to wake up having never gone to sleep.”

Alan Watts

Listen in as Amanda and Alex explore experience that seems to come as a result of noticing that everything arises and dissolves all on its own. When the longing to be different, better, and get to a next place collapses we can see that only the longing remains; but it’s whole and complete in itself.  Perhaps the unseen belief that there is someone or something making it all happen or not happen in imaginary separation is what hurts so much. Can you sense a soft, quiet, bittersweet melancholia in your experience? What a wonder that is!

Alex and Amanda explore the concept of hopelessness and its seeming opposite - hope

Hope as a projection of who we thought we were and where we though we were headed vs hopelessness as the losing of the continuity and trajectory of that person we imagined we were becoming.

Hope time travels us right out of the present moment into a better next that never seems to show up as we (our mind) needed it to show up to satisfy the ever shifting desires.

But sometimes we find that the better next is devoid of the fullness of now and much like the theories of evolution - the "throwing" of desires into a future.

Hopelessness is a wall where imagination where your past can no longer paint a clear picture of the future using its only content - the perceived and interpreted past

And that gap we call hopelessness. But what that really is is is the truth of every single moment. We don’t know

And yet moment to moment we are known in this experiencing.

Hopelessness is the gateless gate into an unimaginable potential. Hopelessness is the space devoid of the stale persona that the mind has constructed.

So what needs to know is not what is “doing the doing”

What you are giving up is not on life or on your future or on yourself. You are giving up on all the LEARNED ideas. That is what life is, that is what has always been happening. Except for the thought that it wasn’t. So nothing changes when you are hopeless, except your suffering.

Hopelessness is the place of unimaginable potential and the suffering is just a mind who thinks it needs to know for the next moment to show up.

A simple misunderstanding of what is happening as part of the seamlessness of experience.

The Mind Theater 

Listen is as we explore the phenomena of the Mind Theater. Discover how we can wake up to the illusions of what we think is happening and at the same time fully engage in the plotlines arising with abandon. The Oscar winning performances and scenes depicting both tragedy and beauty are so seamlessly arising in the Mind Theater that some go looking for an exit… but what if the very idea of an exit is the one illusion that holds creates so much suffering?
