This is terrifying ... everything falling down.. conflicts arising cause im finally able to speak up my mind, my family is almost non existent, my childhood was filled of trauma and I was adopted after and grew up with so much terror, fear, false identity... I feel completely alone in a city I came at 18 and I don't even know what im doing here... I feel all my friends are not my friends... I feel like an island.. I don't know where to go, I don't trust anyone almost.. I don't know with who I can talk.. I don't feel I have strength to be around anyone and im so tired of being alone all the time at the same time... all traumas rising to consciousness... I've been on survival mode all this time, all defenses falling down, I don't even have a mother or father to who I can talk to.. feels like madness

Many people probably dont think of themselves as "having a paradigm". I think its a useful word, that creates some distance between a person and their believes. Now it becomes this "thing" that they can observe, customize and expand.

Joseph Campbell used to say "life has no meaning- whats the meaning of a flower?" and that what people are looking for is not meaning in life but rather "an experience of life". I usually resonate with his insights but have had trouble assimilating the life has no meaning thing. For some reason, I keep coming back to this point in hopes of reconciling with some kind of perspective......

Paradoxes - YES. ( 30:21 ) I've noticed in my own journey that grasping those contradictions in reality by non-dual perspective and accepting of them *massively* helps to navigate through the dark nights of the soul and expand consciousness. Thank you for pointing that out. BTW, when you had brought the example of you being a pharaoh, I've immediately imagined Cleopatra, but then... I thought 'Hey, why diminish yourself? When your name's actually Emerald, then being just a pharaoh would not serve so much justice as being the carrier of Thoth's wisdom in itself...' Yeeet, may be that I've read too much on egyptian esoteric stuff and now I just can't easily focus on some simple parables. Many thanks for your wisdom, Emerald.

This started for me when I realized that I'm not my thoughts. Thoughts seemingly control everything. A thought originated and now here I am typing this message. Once I realized the voice in my head wasn't "me", I began to feel that we are all robots. Nothing matters. Extreme nihilism set in. How can someone get over this? There's no difference between a negative thought and a positive thought. Even the thought "I see a pretty flower" is just a random programed voice in my head. I no longer see the beauty in anything. It sucked everything out of being alive. How do you find anything positive in this?
@TheDiamondNet
@TheDiamondNet Жыл бұрын
Nihilism is not the truth… it’s just the human calculator error that the mind does when it can’t find objective meaning in reality… and then unconscious projects the meaning that “things are meaningless.” The reality is that all things in reality matter beyond the concept of mattering. I recommend you check out my video about Existential Crises that I did about 6 or 7 years ago.

Thank you for this, Emerald! I can remember my experience with the Dark Night very vividly. You described it brilliantly. I thought it would never end, yet it did. I do agree that it makes you a more integrated human being if you manage to pass through. I think it's ultimately an exercise in humbleness, groundedness, not taking off on some high horse and not developing an inflated ego around certain ideas of what it's like to be "a spiritual person". Hence the depression... You want to move on to the "higher" realm so desperately, yet what happens is that you dive straight down to hell. Isn't there a Jungian saying that goes something like this: "For your branches to reach the sky, your roots must reach deep down into the ground." I feel like this encompasses what the Dark Night is there to teach us.

It is definitely a humbling experience. All of my life before then was about trying to avoid my shame by building all sorts of identities and worldviews to do so. And when it all crashed down, it brought me right into the shame that I had been trying to get away from for years. So, it very much is about facing with what it is that the worldview and identity have been insulating us from.

I can relate to what you said there about shame. I think, for me, experiencing the Dark Night made me fall back into my default mode functions and riding them out until I no longer could and was forced into a psychological reset. Very unpleasant while I was in the midst of it, but ultimately, it had to happen. Sometimes I wish there had been a gentler, less challenging way for me. I wonder if there is a specific set of personality types which this experience tends to happen to.@@TheDiamondNet

This is very interesting, I guess this is what I'm experiencing after all. I always thought the ego death and the one with the universe thing came after the dark night, not before, so I always just ignored the idea of a dark night of the soul thinking I'd already been trough it. I was never like you, I never cared about climbing any mountain, the social ladder, I already felt like life was meaningless and identity was an illusion when I had the experience. I actually learned the value of society and climbing the mountain and social competition from having that experience, before I couldn't understand it at all. I was atheist and science oriented like you though, I think that's why it's a lot easier for me to relate to these videos than to the more "spiritual" channels with the crystals and all that. The idea about the two parts fighting is a lot like what I'm going trough right now, and it's been about five years now. Right after the experience I was fully committed to the new perspective though, I was glad to be rid of the old me, I didn't really like myself anyway, so for the first few years everything was great. Wasn't until my old self started gradually reemerging that things got progressively "darker", and now we're here. This really helped shed light on some things, thank you for explaining and sharing. It's interesting, because my old identity and your old identity would have been mortal enemies, I vividly remember wanting to burn society to the ground and string the capitalists up by their necks. And now I'm here learning from you, strange world.

One thing I would say is that I didn’t care consciously about the social ladder. In fact, I identified myself as being outside of the social ladder and in a class of my own. So, there was a sense of superiority that I felt over people who were trying to climb the social ladder. I viewed myself as a minority of one. Interestingly enough, I felt like the universe itself would abhor me if I wasn’t living up to my principles of having a strong work ethic and being successful. And my life would lose all meaning and value if I wasn’t Emerald the principled successful hard worker. Other people didn’t need to do this to be valuable. They could just be. But I saw myself as being in a class of my own… and so I perceived myself as having more responsibilities to live up to these principles… and success at my endeavors was the litmus test for if I was remaining principled. It wasn’t about being successful in the eyes of others or making money. It was about living up to moral principles around competence and work ethic… which I believed I needed to embody to be valid in my own eyes and the eyes of reality itself. In fact, being poor and struggling but having the grit and resolve to work my way through was what I scaffolded my identity upon. My identity was about being the one who’s always able to be disciplined and stick to their moral principles and succeed despite the financial obstacles and other obstacles that arose. So, financial struggle and being the poor person who shows their worth by overcoming the odds was part and parcel to my identity. And there was lots of strong judgments towards the wealthy because I saw them as spoiled because they hadn’t had their willpower tested enough by hardship. But the viewpoint was very Capitalistic in nature despite identifying with financial struggle. I was basically trying to be underdog in the movie who overcomes the odds by proving their moral fortitude. It’s like Charlie Bucket in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. But I do know a lot of people who orient to a similar identity… only minus the attachment to struggle. So, there tends to be a desire to rise to the top and climb the social ladder. There are similar attachments there to the ones that I had before my dark night.

Polish Psychologist Kazimierz Dąbrowski's theory of "Positive Disintegration" has been extremely valuable for me on my journey. I felt like sharing that because I remember in the past I used to describe what I was going through as a "Dark Night of the Soul". Sometimes I forget how traumatic and miserable certain periods were, not knowing at all who or what I was. Nowadays I find myself much more accepting of other people's opinions and the way they describe their experiences, like I can 'read between the lines' and not take the words too literally. Admittedly in the past I would be guilty of dogmatically trying to argue my position over others, or be convinced that what worked for me would work for everyone and I would be so preachy, it's funny looking back - and I'd prefer to laugh at my own sillyness than cringe or embarass myself excessively. If anyone else feels like sharing stuff that's been helpful on their journey I'd be interested in your input too!

I find being the type of person who can hold space for paradoxes may be able to reconcile internal experience and meaning in life, but it becomes harder to navigate the external world where those truths are not readily accepted and one paradigm must “rule” in a certain sphere. Even if one grows to see the unity in seemingly contradictory worldviews, most of society is still operating on a principle of division. Perhaps a neat follow-up topic might be “re-integrating” and establishing new boundaries for engaging the world after a dark night of the soul. (There are so many fascinating things about this… I’m thinking about the Ouroboros, for example, and Jung’s interpretation of that symbol as the unconscious/conscious dynamic and unity…) This is a difficult and complex topic, and you articulate it so well. Thank you, Emerald! ❤

Thank you! Yes, that can be challenging. To live functionally in a variety of different contexts, it’s very important not to mince paradigms. That means only one paradigmatic lens at a time and to be very aware when you switch lenses. So when practicing law, only look from the perspective of the law. When you’re doing math, only look from the perspective of math, etc.

@@TheDiamondNet Hmm… like being conscious of the boundaries that already exist between paradigms and “holding” multiple lens for them? Paradigm shifts occur when something new can be integrated… when boundaries blur for a moment to let something else in. Not that shifts would be inherently positive, but generally that might be considered growth. Like you say, it would need to be conscious. Maybe someone considers acting outside the law but they’re conscious of what rules that breaks and what paradigms they are addressing, and are going about it in order to pursue a change in thinking and behavior. They see a new or better path from their insight during the “dark night” that previously went unnoticed. The difference between paradox and contradiction seems important. A true paradox means there is inherent validity in both/all perspectives. A contradiction means one or more competing perspectives can be invalidated. Lens shifts are necessary to spot the invalid premises for a contradiction, but lens shifting for a paradox instead reveals the intertwined nature of the paradoxical perspectives. So maybe it depends on whether the “dispute” between worldviews one adopts is a paradox or a contradiction. The worldviews you gave about pursuing achievements in a meritocracy and pursuing connection and wholeness I would consider a true paradox. Formation (building one’s individuality) and dissolution (recognizing we’re already “one”). A paradox can never be resolved, but it can be accepted meaningfully. Maybe that is where I get hung up. I think about these things too much, so don’t mind me… Thank you for the discussion. 😅

I don't have any videos on the topic. But certainly, the dynamics that happen from within a cult really set someone up for a major Dark Night of the Soul. In a cult, the perspective is intentionally made narrow for the express purpose of controlling people. And there are negative social consequences (like ostracism) for people who don't adopt the narrow mindset. So if a person is raised in a cult and gets out, that would certainly evoke a huge "rug pull" of their foundations of knowledge and belonging. And it can be difficult to find their bearings.

@@TheDiamondNet exactly yes. I born into a cult. While my heart didn’t believe & subscribe for many years, my mind was conditioned & controlled for most of my life. After several layers of awakening, I fully woke in 2015. I lost my familial ties and my community all at once. Shunned. It’s been really wild discovering who I am now and also healing my mind & retraining my brain. Lots of baby steps, highs and lows. It has felt like many dark nights. So much healing abundance growth, but I am still finding myself in patterns I do not enjoy, and grieving the time I lost. It’s not that easy to snap out of it and just think the new thoughts and have the new free life. I am free, and I celebrate that. I just do not find myself passionate about life like I used to. I keep trying new things and creating new hobbies but nothing lights me up anymore. Prior to my awakening I owned a business that I was super passionate about. I couldn’t run it while I was in a deep healing space and I wasn’t able to begin again with the same passion for it. So, I’m still discovering what’s next at 45. ❤️

The darkest point in your life is probably my tuesday. FYI ; If you don't come out the other side as a changed person, If you don't have a new paradigm & Your perspective hasn't changed significantly... . It's a good bet you didn't go through a dark night of the soul. You just went through some pain. The entire idea behind this IS transformation.

I'm stuck at being able to switch from spiritual paradigm to a more secular one and vice versa. How the hell do I deal with paradoxes? Sure, I can look at things from different perspectives, depending on the situation, but which one ULTIMATELY is it? There has to be THE absolute truth in the end, even if outside of my reach. This has been killing me for more than half of my life at this point. Just had my 30th birthday and I feel just as lost as I was entering puberty around 13, getting bombarded with secular culture (thanks, internet) outside my very fundamentally Christian household.

When it comes to dealing with paradoxes, it's recognizing that there are things that are true from certain vantage point and untrue from others... and to hold space for all perspectives. And the absolute truth is the conglomeration of all perspectives in existence... which of course no one has access to. What might be helpful is for you to check out my video titled "The Antidote to Self-Doubt." There I talk about the distinction between objective truth and subjective truth. This might create a firmer foundation from which to reconcile the perspectives you're attempting to reconcile.

It's as if once I lost my faith, I can't believe anymore, only speculate or pretend. And it's absolutely awful. Sometimes it feels like the belief and truth are just barely out of my reach, like I played some sort of cruel joke on my future self in pursuit of the ultimate truth. Yeah, I'm a Magician.

The book you was talking about I understand as the Akashic record and yes for teaching purposes you can get access to it about others and yourself at times. It sounds like your process is going awesome...cause it is a process one that's for your entire life. It's seems your always leveling up and gaining higher and higher perspectives. I have been on this process for a long time way before KZbin existed and depending on your level and pace of growth you can have multiple dark nights but it isn't a race. I do understand the struggle to live in both the experiences of say science and spirituality at the same time but it does work. We are not supposed to have one or the other but both and that is the jump humanity is going through that why the idea of destroying the 3d and going to 5d is a flawed idea to me since we are multi dimensional beings lol.

Do you mean the book I was talking about that showed up in my journey that I mentioned in my Christ Consciousness video? It had occurred to me that perhaps it was a representation of the Akashic Record. It's interesting that I had always imagined the Akashic Record to be like a giant hall of oracles and reference materials... like a big library. But it also makes sense that it could be something that fits comfortably in your lap. And I totally agree about the idea of going from 3D to 5D being a flawed idea. It sends that message that there is something lesser about the 3D... or that we always have to be leveling up in some way. But my experiences have indicated to me that no hierarchy exists between the spiritual and material. One is not greater than the other. And in fact, there is not other... they are one.

Not necessarily. Nihilism tends to happen in a more of the middling phase of awareness. It’s where a person has gained enough awareness to get out of blissful ignorance… but has not yet experienced that which matters beyond all conceptions of mattering. But that middle phase of awareness is very difficult… which is what the Dark Night of the Soul is part of. It gets a lot darker before it gets light again.

If you that’s what you’re experiencing, then your awareness is probably in that middling phase of awareness. I recommend exploring deeper. Also I’ll share this, just in case it’s helpful. There is a pattern that I notice with people who are in the middling phase of awareness. They look around themselves and see others who aren’t as aware as they are. And those people seem happier because they are blissfully unaware to a point where they never question the point of existence. So, there is no opportunity for the blissfully unaware person to slip into Nihilism. But those of middling awareness are more aware. And they start questioning the meaning of existence and they risk slipping into more Nihilistic perceptions. Now, these Nihilistic perceptions also stem from inadequate awareness. But because the person of middling awareness tends to be surrounded by the blissfully unaware, they create a duality in their mind that doesn’t actually exist. They start to believe, “You can either be aware and miserable… or you can be unaware and happy.” And there can be a feeling of superiority attached to this perception of being the “one who is aware of the bleakness of reality.” But this is just more illusion. If you relinquish that identity, there are deeper layers of reality still to experience and explore. And the darkness you experience now is only a testament to the incompleteness of your current viewpoint. Nihilism is nothing more than a human calculator error.

It's in a world like this that HOPE is at a premium. That is to say, it's (relatively) scarce. But the more crucial insight about hope is that it _isn't_ a choice: indeed, it's a luxury. - To be more specific about it, it's not _you_ that determines whether or not you have hope at a particular moment of your life. Instead, it's what's beyond your control that determines whether or not you have it at that moment. - All powerful forces (be they natural or otherwise): they will have had the final say as to what was possible and not possible for you at all points along the course of your life on earth. - And that demonstrates just _some_ of the distressing insight that's pushing me toward the unthinkable. - I'm not able to _unsee_ what I've already seen you know. No doubt it would make all the difference for me if I _could_ unsee it. -

I'm agnostic. However, i don't see that atheism necessarily leads to nihilism, or a meaningless world. Because atheists still have children what they'll "naturally" love. They'll also still see things within their existence on earth and the universe, with a sense of awe and wonder as well. And being as they'll mostly innately naturally love their children, unless they'd have some personality disorder, then they'd also still have a bases to "see something what's far bigger" in life, than life merely being something what's only ever all about themselves, as well. Even to be able to see valid reason for conservation, and for concern for environmental issues and so forth, in relation to all living beings' option for continued survival, it's still something easily able to relate to atheism. So, perhaps atheist are not necessarily always unspiritual beings. However, this is off topic, as perhaps it's not directly related to dark night of the soul. Although i guess it could still be, like if there was some atheist who'd be busily stressing and tearing themselves apart inside while feeling bad about themselves, due to the widespread commonplace conclusion that atheism is directly related to nihilism. I speak up about this because i sometimes feel that perhaps such beliefs might have often been subconsciously used as a subtle form of character assassination. Even be it mostly being done unintentionally. And sadly, it's also another way to create the "us versus them" paradigm which powers that be, totally enjoy utilizing, gleefully, being as it's long been one excellent way to help to "divide us" people apart (ie: used as a type of apartheid), as well

I agree with that. I don't think that Atheism leads to Nihilism. Many of my friends are Atheists and they are all people who have a deeply held sense of meaning. And funny enough, when I was Agnostic leaning heavily Atheist, I was still very connected to the source. I just hadn't thought of it in that light. It just didn't feel right to join a religion because I just didn't know and religious people tended to wig me out. And nothing I had experienced prior to then indicated to me the existence of a God-like being. So, when I first had an experience of the source in my first plant-medicine experience it was like "Ohhhh! That's what it is!" And I had to laugh because I had been in deep prayer every single day of my life. I just hadn't realized it.

@@TheDiamondNet i have never had any experience of specialized plant-medicine. Only a few youthful experiences with spur of the moment cactus-based extraction. I'm not sure what to think. I feel as if i've somehow grown to be intuitive. And i've had a feeling back when i'd been still a baby within a pram, as if i might have just arrived here on earth from somewhere else, whether id been having memories of another previous life, or what, i really don't know for certain. And then more recently i've wondered if i had been visited by a friend who'd only passed away in days just before this experience. Another time one early morning i had rolled over in bed and felt i had clearly seen with my own eyes the head and neck of a well-known dead philosopher, floating midair beside my bed, which to me at that moment didn't feel at all like there was any sense of threatening nature to it, at all and so i had rolled back over and promptly went back to sleep again. I had rationalized this experience, net day, by considering that i had been busy in study and research of this philosophers' theories and ideas a lot at that time. So, i remain agnostic. But i now attempt to remain more open to what might be. As well as what might not be. But i mainly right now feel motivated to do my best to attempt "to help" to bring more understanding of the nature of interconnectivity, i feel i can see, between humans and all living beings. If God might exist, and if all that is around us would be a "part of Gods work", and if God might not desire for beings' egos to take over, then perhaps God might not be so dogmatic about worship of himself but may be more interested in the loving care of the work involved in the wonders and awe of life. But i still have no way in which to feel im absolutely sure about it all. Other than to see very clearly that what we have been doing, with our destructive ways, has no long-term plan in mind
