Suspending belief on the back of a bull? Suffering is not pain.
Suffering is not pain, it’s the perception that pain is forever.
Attachment does not have to be negative.
Pain and pleasure is the nature of our experience… embrace it.

OVERALLS
An item of clothing that represents the aspects of the personality that are thought of as being the real you, but are nothing but symptoms of an experience.
“An ‘overall’ excitement fills you as your legs tighten around the squirming mass of muscle to be released into the ring.
You think, ‘Where am I going… why am I on this animal! What’s going to happen to me?’”
“Your ‘disbelief’ is the symptom of an observer knowing itself to be an observer.”
“Without the vantage of higher-self, the act of riding hard on temporal perception creates the same anxiety you feel when firmly grasping the rope and hoping for 8 seconds on the back of that bull.”
TEMPORAL
That which is related to the creations of the mind, thought, and the thought process. Temporal constructions are never considered ‘spiritual’. All duality, all ‘things’, including vibration, energy, matter, images, angles, numbers, including ‘souls’ are considered temporal.
PRODUCERS
Any entity in a co-creating relationship that ‘produces’ an illusory-like experience, or ‘movie’. A loose metaphor comparing the ‘creations’ of those who use the thought process to a film that is produced and viewed by itself and ‘others’.
“As long as you realize you’re suspending your disbelief, while watching other ‘riders’ roughstock events play out, you’ll be alright. But if you get stuck in the chute, your symptoms become the deeper trance.”
“It’s easy to become forgetful of your real essence that’s only felt when removing temporal knowledge, and see yourself as a rhinestone rider who has his acting pants glued to his ass.”
“There are cowboy’s that know their experiences don’t define them. They’re the ‘top rodeo riders’, unaffected by the temptation to believe that the immensely deeper feature presentations are more than just movies. They camp on the hillside just outside the fair, with vantage points of numerous drive-in theaters. Yet they remain, untouched and amused.”
“Thrown, rolled and tossed... they get right up, pat the dirt off and strut around as if there was never a bull at all!”
RODEO
A sport that originated from cattle herding. We use this term because of the applicability and metaphor of ‘cattle’ (see def). A rodeo is a commonly perceived ‘world’ that the mind may perceive as solid, real, and permanent, but is really illusory-like, movie-like, and a playground and battleground for Wills that have varied intentions. Rodeos consist of duality, and duality disguised as singularity.
CONJURE
Any’thing’ that is created by thought. This encompasses all things
THING
Any experience, personality, concept, object, distinction, time, category or section of matter or energy, symbol (including letters and numbers), whether simple or complex that ‘exist’ solely as a symptom of the thought process.
“This ‘world’, when understood as a movie-like rodeo, and revealed to souls who thought they were ‘spiritual’, is met by the hollering, “Any god that comes ‘here’ is no god at all.”
Yeah it’s true… I was once annoyed by the realization too.”
Well all be! The absolute doesn’t lose sleep over it. It understands it to be a passing rodeo dust cloud.
WILL
A force and an awareness whose source is based in the everpresent, but may use intention and attention to manifest ‘things’ (see def) for the purpose of entertaining itself, and sometimes limiting its own and others awareness. (Note: ‘W’ and the homonym ‘il’, ‘el’, ‘L’ ‘1’)
THOUGHT PROCESS
The physical and energetic temporal brain (that related to the creations of the mind, thought, and the thought process). Temporal constructions are never considered ‘spiritual’. Also referred to as ‘Stetson’, ‘The Process of Observing’, and ‘Hypnosis’ (all thought is hypnosis in varying degrees).
“If you’re still not getting it, then I suggest you put down your 11th shot. Not just because you’re going to black out, but because you haven’t accepted that the world ‘you’re’ experiencing is fabricated by larger rodeo producers (not that chaps wearing bearded guy with his finger stretched out).
Some of these Wills use the thought process (enhanced by ‘your own’ thinking and consent) to get you to rope your own hind legs.”
“Considering ‘why’ these souls do what they do is like demanding to know what color the brahma was that crushed you - before being whisked away to the hospital.”
But you’re better than that!
(that is, if you remove your flank strap)
MOVIE
A loose metaphor comparing the ‘creations’ of those who use the thought process to a film that is produced and viewed by itself and ‘others’. Observers may or may not suspend their belief when watching a movie.
TIME
A symptom of thought, engendered from higher Wills, and co-created by the unquestioned premise of complicit observers. Where there is word, there is sound, which is vibration, which is energy, which creates subjective light, which creates angles from mixing the 3 (read trinity) colors to make the first shape (hexagon), which contains angles (known also as ‘angels’), which creates objects and ‘things’. Here, where thought creates ‘things’, distance and space appear as an illusory-like manifestation.
“When you create the ‘movie’ of this world through intention and attention, yet, don’t understand it to be ‘movie-like’, you experience unbridled discomfort in ‘others’ pains and pleasures, justices and injustices. If you find yourself constantly desiring a deeper, more hearty, meat filled, bucking dimensionality that forgets this realization, then expect to misunderstand the difference between pain and suffering for a longer time.”
“If you’re in this place, you’re definitely not ready to get back on the back of the Brahma Bull!”
The gears of programming have ended deep within the machine.
“What the heck! Is there a part of the ‘movie’ attached to ‘delusion’? Until letting go of that particular rope, you’ll have free flowing anxiety.”
You know what I’m talking about.
“Remember; attention placed on the products of thought creates desire, and desire forms attachment.”
Attachment is neither right nor wrong. Create your experience, but know you’re the one who made that choice.
“Attachment is a playground. If you know where it came from – it brings all the flavors of food, sex, laughter, and rodeo riding pain you might desire.”
That which you bind, can also be set free. You want to master that ability – grab the reigns, but not too hard.
BULL RIDING DECLARATION
Any belief that attachment has to be negative, is now thrown from the bull ride in less than 8 seconds, stomped in the dust of hooves, and driven into the dirt. Sent away with calm bravado, I hear an internal cheering audience. With a compassionate nod, it is done.
AFFIRMING NOD AFFIRMATION
Unidentified attachment is suffering. Identified suffering is only pain. Pain comes and goes and is part of the great rodeo. When I get flung from the bull, it’s the nature of the experience.
