I don’t think so. Not knowingly. And I’m in this weird non-composing space these days.
What do you think of them?
I have not gotten their products. But I have listened to their demos. They are definitely different. And in electronic music, different is good.
If I was going to buy more VSTs, I’d get Sonic Charge. I already have Serum and Nerve, as well as most of Sugar Bytes.
Sample Science is another one that has intriguing plug ins. I keep waiting for their “everything bundle sale”… but it doesn’t seem to happen.

Then there is the Zebra synth. I have their free version (Zebralette), and it’s quite cool!
Okay I need to stop talking about this or I might buy more VSTs today.

Just started to recognize what (part of) my Quantum Focus mode looks like and feels like. I was imagining it one way and it was showing up somewhat differently.
(Mine shows up as a kind of flow of creative thoughts and ideas.)
It’s been happening the whole time, and there has been an uptick since running Quantum Limitless.
Reminds me of the principle: Be flexible and open-minded in how you allow your wishes to be fulfilled.

Finally got back to the gym today after a very, very, very long time.
I had a very enjoyable and satisfying workout.
Yes, my strength levels had gone way down since I was last regularly lifting. Years ago at this point. But the workout felt great, and my energy level felt stable and good. I’m grateful.
On the subliminals side of things, I attribute this largely to Emperor in my custom. There are some others that probably helped too.
My goal now is to take things in a mature and balanced way. Rather than always thinking about my muscles, I want to think about my tendons. So, I won’t max out my lifts. I want to give my tendons a couple of months to get stronger and more flexible.
Well, I needed to add this to the journal because it’s clearly significant.

My mind is in this “Buffering” kind of occupied status.
I’ve given it a lot to process. And one consequence of that seems to be decreased creative impulse. Not destroyed, but decreased.
I feel that I could easily sit down and compose music if I chose to do so, but there’s not enough circulating energy to generate the spontaneous impulse to do it.
It’s a pretty ‘interesting’ space to be in. And I’ve been in varying degrees of this space since Summer 2020.
I’ve invoked a metamorphosis process. And at any given time about 60 to 70 percent of my internal energies are being diverted to that.
I’m stating this quite confidently and definitively, as if I’m really certain about it, but it’s of course a bit mysterious to myself. I just think that this is what’s happening.

Today is Tuesday, so this morning was another subliminal day. (Listening schedule: Saturday and Tuesday for 3 weeks. Then I rest for a Saturday and Tuesday. Then repeat.)
Played them during the morning meditation, from about 8:40 to 9:40. Then got ready for morning appointments at office.
When I woke up today, my left pectoral was painfully sore. Basically a good sign. And a tangible reminder of just how long it’s been since I was in the gym. 2nd day soreness had stopped happening to me a long time ago. It’s kind of nice to have it again in a weird way. Feels like a fresh start. I also have a gentle soreness around my distal biceps.
Thanks God.
So, yes. Next sub session will be Saturday February 4.

Once you get past all the flashy lights, a spiritual path is generally about participating in the world in a particular way.
Once you’ve “arrived“, “woken up“, “become enlightened“, you’re not actually done. Instead what it usually means is that you’re now better able to participate in the world in that desired way.

Hahahaha same. I think we share the same signs. A lack of journal updates.

Makes you respect mothers even more.
I think that the challenges we go through for recon are probably about 1/100 of what a woman goes through for childbirth. (I’m comparing them because there’s a similar feeling to this.)

Amazing.
Due to my long hiatus from the gym, my pecs stayed sore for 4 entire days, they’re just coming back now.
As I stated before, my emphasis now is on Energy and Tendons. I’ll let the muscle gains follow after those.

Yesterday I was sitting in a meeting where this woman was sharing about Spiritual Awakening, something that is a desired state in AA. When she said this, she started to laugh about here first “Awakening” because she thought everything would be done after that, she would be a complete person and everything would be fine.
I like that you said “You’re not actually done” but in my humble opinion, it becomes even worse for at least a couple of years. I lost friends, family, and interests/hobby’s that I had as a young man. Right now after years of trial and error, I’m slowly building up who I actually am. But participating in the world in a desired way was and is a lonely road for me, did you have the same experience?
Not to complain! I loved every wake-up moment that I have had in my life and there will be many to come. But with that better way of participation, comes great sorrow and pain with adjusting and letting go of the “old self”
To quote J Cole “Ignorance is Bliss”

I wonder what your past self would say if you checked in with him and asked his opinion.
Maybe he’d say, “Yes, I’d like to stay the way I am now, so that I don’t lose my friends, family, and interests.”?
Or more likely he’d say, ‘This spirituality stuff is my main hobby.’
At some point, I learned that so-called enlightenment meant losing everything you love. And once I saw that, I sat my ass down in a chair and calmed down a little bit.
I’m not following the path in order to ‘attain’ awakening or enlightenment.
I think that life is (or can be) an endless series of awakenings or enlightenments. And I don’t see it as my job to colonize the Cosmos.
On the other hand, we must also admit, that, even without enlightenment, there is still no way to truly hold onto everything that we know and love. Is there?
Love it. Hate it. Exalt it. Deride it. Pursue it. Avoid it. Letting Go remains an inevitability. We get many small lettings go over the course of a life. And we get a much bigger one at the end of a life.
But deaths and Death are not the only ultimate reality here. There are births and Birth as well.
And we don’t only awaken from a condition; we also awaken into conditions as well.
and the beat goes on…

I also want to add:
I feel you.
This shit gets really difficult at times.
“Good” developments can bring just as much upheaval as “bad” ones.
Hang in there, brother. The earth keeps turning.

At the center of what I’m working to manifest is CALLING, or VOCATION. I want to love my work. I want it to be a natural outgrowth of who I am. I want to feel confident and at home in my work. I want to prosper and thrive in it.
It’s a large-scale, major goal. To be working from, within, and towards PURPOSE.
It has its roots in the internal and its branches and fruits in the external.
This is what I’m working towards. It’s what I’ve been working on for the entire time. And I have definitely been seeing and experiencing major shifts in this large-scale project over the three years that I’ve been working with subliminals, so far.
In light of my overall goal, the modules that I have in my customs could probably be categorized into three main groups:
-
Primary Structural GUIDES: The perfect example of this would be Emperor. It’s not specifically aligned with anything unique about me. Instead, it’s generally directed to my overall goal. Establishing a sphere of power, of self-determination, of alignment with my Vision, and so on.
-
Focused, Detailed SUPPORTS: These are modules chosen based on the specific qualities that I’ve learned about myself over the years. They are more custom-tailored to my individual characteristics. Examples of these might be: Empath, Chiron, Entranced, Mercy Protocol, Metamorphosis, Avatar, Spiritual Freedom. I’ve already learned over the years that these qualities are important parts of my nature. They will be central to whatever I do or become.
-
Enhancers, Modifiers, Focusers, Appliers: These are modules that can help to increase the effectiveness of the previous two domains of my growth. These are modules like: Financial Success Reality Shifter, Organization Perfected, Carpe Diem Ascended, and even like Starfilled Night and Ascension Chamber to some extent.
Over the last 3 years, I have, amazingly, seen my work making continual shifts into alignment with my Vision. (And simultaneously, I’ve experienced continued development in my Vision as well.) Things are actually looking quite a bit different now from where they were in 2019. I’ve become clearer about what I want, and I’m therefore also getting better at asking for it, negotiating for it, etc. Also, various opportunities and directions have manifested. I’ve found clients, sometimes when I wasn’t even looking for them. And I’ve seen and am still learning to see ways to actively CREATE what I want, rather than passively waiting for it to just drop out of the sky. This is a process, though; and I feel like I still have a long way to go.
This project (of Purpose-Driven, Prosperous Vocation) is one of the biggest things that I could have chosen to work on in my life. But, due to my temperament, it was unlikely that I was ever really going to choose anything else. So my first goal with Subliminal Club was a very long-term goal.
One consequence of this is that gauging and assessing smaller steps of progress can be a little trickier sometimes. But I embrace that.

I just had a pretty unpleasant work-based conflict situation.
I’m still trying to process it.
I didn’t feel that I was totally “right” in the interaction and that made it more challenging. But I also felt that the other party was being excessive and unbalanced.

Instead of focusing on deadlines and on time running out, think of all that you passionately want to accomplish.
It’s the same question, just approached from the other side.

One of the most creative to ever do it, and low-key one of the best voices and flows in the music.

31 December 2022 I begin playing my customs in ZP v2.
One month later, 30 January 2023, I find myself extremely easily and organically back in the gym feeling fine working out.
This was an extremely quiet and an extremely meaningful result.
Now it’s 18 February, (about to go for another simple workout), and I find myself starting to feel tentative stirrings of hope with regard to my developments and projects. Before me, I see possibilities and ideas for things that I want to do.
Amazing.
