Exploring Self
  The shift is not a thing. It is the action of increasing your self-awareness.

Hello, I have just discovered Elias and am currently reading "The Shift" by David Tate. I have been very dissatisfied with the way our society has progressed, how people are right now but unable to know why, or understand why I am very indifferent, I am a loner by nature and choice, but once a friend is found in me I am loyal

I look forward to reading all that is linked here, and to read everyones experiences, perspective and theory.

Welcome to Blueflash, from your Welsh cousin from the US. Don't listen to folks that tell you we debate anything around here. Of course we all walk around like mindless android slaves of Elias.

NOT!

Thank you all for the welcome, I am a Geordie lass born and bred (Newcastle upon Tyne) moved to Wales to marry Mark. His father's family are born and bred in Wales but father moved to Hull and Mark moved back to Wales. Both my boys were born here in Wales. However family trees have shown that I do have ancestors back in Ireland and Scotland. So still could be related even though I am not welsh born.

Batty - because I am, for those who don't understand me I come across as 'strange' for those who know I do have a sense of humour but very wry and dry.

Old Maid - my favourite Bette Davis film.

Heh heh, sorry no underlying clues to my past life.

Tell me more about the

I, of course will at some point in looking through this site, will find out, but am curious.

Hey, don't worry! What matters is that you be yourself.

Shari, I just moved to Texas….but really want to go back to beautiful Southern CA.

Any rich woman who would like a silly but very interesting guy with her back there in CA?

Batty I can give you a clue, if you are intermediate , then you will disagree with everything I say , as I am common. and you will agree with everything the intermediates and softs say. They are not bothered in the least by ELias contradictiing himself, or if it doesnt add up becuse it does add up for them. Commons are more likely to be a more questioining, more into analyzing the material with a somewhat skeptical , more rational approach.

Im not sure what the soft approach is exactly, but they definitely seem to understand the material better than I do because they are closer to the subjective state than commons who have a more impenetrable veil of separation between their thinking conscioius mind and the inner self. THey seem to experience it easier. So although many here disagree with this, I think you have a good head start over me.

Steve, sorry that I disagree with you (but this hasn't to do with me being intermediate but with my experience …). Whether its easy for me to communicate with somebody or not hasn't to do with his/her orientation. There have been intermediates I met at BF where I hardly felt familiar with and there are many commens I feel very familiar with. I don't think that you can use the orientation as the reason how familiar you feel with some material or somebody or how challenging something is to you .
