It strikes me that LTU5 is making progress with you, and the more progress it makes, the harder you are trying to derail it. The above two posts both scream that to me. One is trying to derail it with rejecting ideas, and one is disassociation.
When I have taught LOA stuff, the biggest issue I always face is that tipping point where the person I'm trying to teach has a hard time wrapping their mind around what it is that is necessary to make that last step. This is usually a combination of fear (typically "What if it actually works? Then I'm responsible for everything that I was able to blame on someone or something else before!") and not yet being able to comprehend the nature of the reality being explained because they're still thinking in terms of the old familiar reality and its limits ("But that's not possible/realistic/how it actually works/etc.")
It sounds to me - and please correct me if I am wrong - like you're getting the mental aspects of LOA, but the key is that you're not getting the "becoming" aspect. Regardless, "closing the door to all this" as a reaction isn't the solution. It's just an escape based on frustration, which is likely the result of not having the right understanding, guidance or subconscious willingness to move forward to experiencing it.
From my point of view, what it looks like I am seeing is that you're making progress with LTU5 that the parts of you that want to resist cannot stop, and as those parts lose ground, they become more and more desperate and act out in more and more extreme ways. It is going to be important that as you make progress, you don't let yourself be talked into defeatist beliefs or escape tactics by that/those part(s) of you.
And definitely continue using LTU5 as needed on top of the standard.
Is there something I can perhaps be of assistance with in your understanding of the LOA stuff?
Quote:I find most books on anything having to do with self improvement long, full of filler, trying to explain a concept that's more of a state of being. I like to be open minded, but I might be closing the door on any of this type of stuff soon. It seems like 90% of it is redundant and rehashed material and it's not the knowledge or understanding that's missing, but the being part.
