@Emily you are Peter's equal in this conversation and questioning with your beautiful cool interview style and presence. For now this is for me my most loved and authentic mind exploration from two speakers. I thank you both. 🙏

[@tracym1639]

Mine too ❤

[@EvolveWithEmily]

Wow thank you so much for this, what a comment ❤

[@nikolaandonov6766]

Intimate relationship with reality means to live your life not in your own head , meaning reincarnating past pains and projecting them into the future and living in fear of the this hypothetical future, but to live in the NOW knowing that every new moment is for itself full of possibilities. What happened, happened and it couldn't happened any other way because it didn't. Life is the way it is, but only always. Accept your reality and be curious of your possibilities.

[@reflectiveyou7628]

“The death of the idea of ourselves is actually the birth of the true essence of ourself.” What a beautiful journey it is to walk that path, this path of liberation from the false self and to receive the gift of our true self. Beautiful tears ❤

My heart

[@susandavies3532]

Love you Peter Crone. A beautiful explanation of your work. ❤

[@nikolaandonov6766]

The root of suffering in my opinion is our nature, meaning people always experience the feeling of a loss twice as strong as the feeling of gain. This is our normal basic (primitive) thinking and it is totally OK. Why are people addicted to their own suffering? Addiction to projecting the worst possible outcome in your head is based on the primal need of feeling the relief when you avoid this scenario, meaning if you can't control what is about to happen to you, the pleasure of avoiding the pain is much more pleasant than the reward of getting the thing you want. When people project they are already in pain or discomfort and when the bad doesn't happen they feel almost magical relief and that is addictive. Other aspect is : people experience the feelings of lack or not enoughness as a familiar things and something familiar feels as something SECURE, this false security makes our lives predictable. For our brain is easier to think in this way rather than to expect positive outcomes ( they are not "the norm" and that's why they feel threatening) The other thing is that our brain is trained during the years to FOCUS and remember the thing that confirm its perspective even if there are evidences of the opposite. Change in the perspective and perception require focus energy and training, it is like training a muscle, hard in the beginning but eventually the inertia takes up. Be consistent and mindful, focus on the positive and expect the better results.

Neti neti is not buddhism .it is from Hinduism sanatana dharma advaita

[@thepolymathacademy4891]

Weed is not an issue, it's a creative gift of creation and was here before consciousness, it's a spritual tool that connects us with plant consciousness that is of creation and is probably what unlocked are true poetinal as mammals, peter has a limited interpretation of weed from coming from a limting belief of your own. Ego is a terrible word - as it's a fresh creation, it's only definition if you make it, but ego keeps the associated attachment. & why all the dogmatic concepts peter, such as heaven & hell when these are limitations of vastness 59:30 - women can socially be both simultaneously victims & empowered depending on who they want to be to influence soft control over or out of someone. & the white knight stuff isn't on behalf of all men as a generalization.

[@carolgerber6375]

The mmm, mmm,mmm,mmm mmm is annoying as hell.

[@EvolveWithEmily]

I agree lol, sometimes you don’t realize what you’re doing until you watch it back. Working on that

[@Missnuttybanana]

Absolutely amazing conversation... such great questions Emily and so many gold nuggets to take away, thank you so much both x

[@EvolveWithEmily]

I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
