In order to flow freely through the random stream of life, we must become fluid

What is Arbitrary Flux?

Life is in arbitrary flux. A state of random continuous change. To have the best possible life, you must be equipped to handle any state of change life can lob at you. Arbitrary Flux is a manual for conquering the self and dominating life. We are our own worst enemy. With dominion of the self, we become the boulder in the river of life. We are unshakeable, unbreakable, and unrelenting in shaping the flow of life around us.

  • Time Manipulation: Freedom From The Grasp Of Time

    Skillful Living, Philosophy

    Time seems pretty straightforward. We have clocks that accurately measure time for us. We know that time is universal, that time passes in Italy just like it passes in the United States. We know that time was passing for the astronauts on the Moon the way it passes for us on Earth. Time ages all of us just the same. And we know that time is an observable fact. None of those statements are actually true, but we are so ready to believe them. WE are the creators of time, and we don’t fully understand it. Our most accurate clocks […]

  • How Awareness Changes Your Life

    Mindfulness, Skillful Living

    Awareness is mindfulness interlaced with insight and understanding. Mindfulness casts you as the observer of the present moment, like watching a movie and trying to absorb everything fully. You’re appreciating the acting, the soundtrack, the colors, the writing, the wardrobes, and the overall sensation. Awareness is like playing a video game. You’re still trying to fully absorb everything like with the movie, but you’re also an active part of how things are playing out. There are things you can change by deciding your inputs during the process. Thus you’re observing how your inputs and the inputs of others are affecting […]

  • Can Mindfulness Drive You Crazy?

    Mindfulness

    You lose sense of “who” you are, “what” you are, “how” you feel, and what “you” want. You get a feeling like you can’t control yourself, as if there’s suddenly another personality inside your mind dictating all your thoughts and actions. You’re in the middle of two realities and can’t quite get your footing in either. You have an old system of dealing with thoughts and feelings and are learning a new system. But it feels like neither are working because they’re getting jumbled together.

  • Meditation for Maniacs – A How to Guide

    Meditation

    We’re all a little maniacal from time to time. Saying things we don’t mean while doing things we’ll regret later. But it’s what we keep inside that really haunts us. It’s what’s inside that pesters us incessantly, that keeps us feeling tight and wound up. It’s what drives our undying desire to find escape in entertainment, social media, alcohol, drugs, and various other distractions and mood altering activities. It’s the maniac we have to live with inside our own minds that brings the pain and leaves us feeling empty and hopeless. We all have that maniac, whether we’ve acknowledged it […]
