A Taste of Mandyland


THE ICON WILL TAKE YOU THERE



PART SIXTY-EIGHT

MANDY BITES: FIGHT | THE | POWER

  1. The energy of ‘fighting against’ is more disruptive and detrimental to your system than the thing you’re fighting against.

  2. If you’re creating a system to counter the system… Need I say more?

  3. Anti is still pro.


PART SIXTY-SEVEN

MANDY BITES (NARCISSISM)

  1. Sometimes you’re their karma.

  2. To blame the ‘narcissist’ for ‘manipulating’ you into ignoring that initial gut feeling and your brilliant inner knowing is completely absurd.

  3. Why are you mad at them for your choice to betray yourself?

  4. You weren’t deceived. You knew. And chose to believe something else.

  5. They didn’t (and can’t) hide who they are. It was (and is) in plain view.

  6. The ‘narcissist’ IS the lie. So every deception is a function of that.

  7. When someone is free, they appear narcissistic to those still bound by themselves.

  8. Why would you need to forgive? What happened wasn’t wrong. Nor was it about you.

  9. When you’ve actually had enough of it, you won’t have to try. It will just be done.

PART SIXTY-SIX

MANDY BITES: TOOLS | AND | PROCESSES

  1. You use and teach tools and processes because you don’t trust yourself enough to go rogue.

  2. Tools keep you stuck.

  3. The only ‘tool’ you actually need is custom-built into each moment.


PART SIXTY-FIVE

MANDY BITES (MY WORK)

  1. My work is not for everyone. It’s barely for anyone. But for those whom it was made, nothing else will do. 

  2. Those who come to me, just know. Because I know. And they want to dance with that knowing.

  3. It takes so little to play with me. But most are filled with so much.

  4. If you’re not ready to off yourself, I’m of no use to you.

  5. I’m here to destroy and be destroyed.

  6. It’s not my job to wake people up. It’s my job to be, and remain, awake. Regardless of who’s sleeping.

  7. You’re not special. Your story’s not special. You’re a living god like everyone else.

  8. My existence is confronting to those who’ve yet to face themselves.

  9. Most can’t ride, let alone fly.

  10. Almost no one wants to go all the way.

  11. If you need or want something from a call with me, it’s not time for a call with me.

  12. Them: “What do you do for a living?” Me: “Float through space.”

PART SIXTY-THREE

MANDY BITES (MIX)

  1. If you are new in every moment (and you are), why are you still like that?

  2. You separate things but they’re all the same.

  3. The edge doesn’t exist.

  4. Resentment is using another to keep yourself bound and blaming them for why you’re not free.

  5. The longer you ignore yourself, the more unstable you become.

  6. Doing the work takes you there. Doing the work keeps you here.

  7. Addiction can’t overcome the lie that sources it.

  8. It doesn’t happen over time. It happens outside of time.

  9. The absurdity of caring what another thinks of you.

PART FIFTY-NINE

MANDY BITES (MIX)

  1. You’re supposed to get better with 'age'; not worse.

  2. ‘Enough’ is not an amount.

  3. Your desires are just an echo of what is already here for you.

  4. You believe what you see and that’s your first mistake.

  5. You crave what you deny yourself.

  6. Everything and everyone is held to account.

  7. Nothing can touch you once you’ve settled it for yourself.

  8. If they were your people, they’d be in your life.

  9. Staying ‘for the money’ or for any reason other than truth will put you in a deficit, regardless.

PART FIFTY-SEVEN

MANDY BITES (HEAVEN)

  1. You forgot that you’re God and it shows.

  2. Everything you’re aiming for is just to be here now.

  3. Things move pretty fast when there’s nothing in the way.

  4. Resisting who you are is hard. Being who you are is easy.

  5. You quell the noise by moving, and not moving, despite it.

  6. When IT happens, it’s not ‘OH MY GOD!’ It’s ‘of course.’

PART FIFTY-FIVE

MANDY BITES (CLUTTER)

  1. Organizing clutter doesn't get rid of clutter.

  2. The cleaner it gets inside and out, the more one notices - and the less one tolerates - debris of any kind.

  3. They bring their mess to clean you up.

  4. I go where it’s the loudest, just to make it quiet.

  5. The only thing that’s ‘earned’ is the state you experience from the work you do to keep that inner non-space pristine.

  6. It’s you putting things in your own way.

  7. What feels like magic is just you unobstructed.

  8. Anything you rely on will be stripped from you. You may as well strip yourself.

  9. If there’s nothing left, I’m out. If there’s no thing at all, I’m in.

  10. Getting unjammed where it’s been the most jammed, unjams you everywhere else.

  11. The human needs the clutter. The being is the space.

  12. It’s not because you can’t clean it up. You just don’t want to – yet.

PART FIFTY-THREE

MANDY BITES (MIX)

  1. It ‘falls apart’ because it isn’t true.

  2. Even when I’m single, I move like I’m taken.

  3. Others aren’t distracting you. You’re using others to distract yourself.

  4. When you see what others cannot see, you move in ways they can’t understand.

  5. The energy of ‘fighting against’ is more disruptive and detrimental to your system than the thing you’re fighting against.

  6. How can you command a thing when you can’t even command yourself.

  7. It’s either truth or a compensation.

  8. The work is the same for everyone. And there’s only one job to do.

  9. I don’t create. I stay out of the way. It is created through me.

  10. Never better. Always better.

  11. You’ll find out when you get (t)here.

  12. There is no ‘once and for all’.

PART FIFTY-TWO

MANDY BITES: BE | NOT | AFRAID

  1. It’s not love or fear. Love includes the acceptance of fear. And anything else that arises.

  2. Fear of the unknown is a lack of trust in your power and ability to navigate what you, yourself, have perfectly orchestrated.

  3. I’d feel afraid, too, if I wasn’t in charge of myself.


PART FIFTY-ONE

MANDY BITES (CHEEKY)

  1. Full self-ownership is my kink.

  2. I don’t care how it appears. I know what’s going on.

  3. I don’t move until I’m moved.

  4. Why would I be less me for anybody? The more me, the better. For everybody.

  5. “How old are you?” Ageless, timeless, eternal and everlasting.

  6. If you're not getting hotter by the day, you're doing it wrong.

  3. “For a second there I forgot I was a fucking animal.”

  4. “Pure, piercing truth. Slicing through bullshit with the sharpest Japanese knife.”

  6. “Mandy is an Olympic level player of the greatest game of all (the energetics).”

  7. “Truly life-changing.”

  8. “In a lot of environments I move in, I’m the expert. So it’s a privilege experiencing an energy that feels cleaner and sharper than mine.”

  9. “I’ve had more forward movement in the last 24 hours than I’ve had in a year.”

  10. “There was a nuclear energetic bomb that just went off at the very core of everything.”

‘Natalia’ by Belin, Mural Festival 2025, 22 Duluth Avenue East, Montreal, Quebec

PART FORTY-SIX

MANDY BITES (CONSCIOUSNESS)

  1. It takes consciousness. Not time.

  2. If you’re not being transported, then what’s the fucking point?

  3. Their unconsciousness makes you more conscious.

  4. Nothing can bridge the (illusory) consciousness gap. Only no thing can.

  5. The greatest cosmic joke is that we take any of this shit seriously.

  6. The more you see through, the less interest you have in what you see.

  7. When you know the game is to become more conscious, you use everything in front of you towards that end.

  8. The cosmos shift when I’m on my shit.

  9. When you see through and exist beyond space and time, it’s a pretty fucking epic ride.

PART FORTY-FIVE

MANDY BITES (MONEY)

  1. Money won’t solve your ‘money problems’ because ‘money problems’ aren’t about money.

  2. Certainty flips the switch.

  3. You’ll chase the money until you realize the money is always here when you’re still.

  4. Your fear around money is not about money.

  5. Numbers aren’t a part of REAL money math. Until, of course, they are.

  6. You could ‘lose’ it all and feel poor. Or ‘lose’ it all and just ‘make’ more.

  7. Money shows you where you’re not free. As does everything else.

  8. As long as you're settling for a less than true existence, you have yet to earn the 'riches' that you misperceive are missing.

  9. The only thing that's 'earned' is the state you experience from the work you do to keep that inner non-space pristine.

PART FORTY-FOUR

MANDY BITES (THE DEVIL)

  1. I use the Devil to get closer to God. And Hell to get closer to Heaven.

  2. The nightmare grants you access to the dream that was always there.

  3. The devil will never announce his arrival. Your system always will.

  4. No one has the power to pull you into the lower, let alone keep you there.

  5. Hearts don’t break. Attachments do.

  6. Avoiding ‘toxic’ people isn’t the solution (or even possible). Becoming clean yourself is.

  7. The real ‘no contact’ is with the abuser in your head.

  8. True ‘justice’ is reclaiming your power from everything and everyone you gave it to.

  9. If you can’t see the absolute perfection behind a ‘bad’ experience, even the ‘worst’ experience of your life, then you haven’t gone deep enough. You haven’t extracted your gold.

PART FORTY-TWO

MANDY BITES (ADDICTION)

  1. Swallowing truth makes you sick.

  2. What you’ve yet to own, owns you.

  3. You are the only remedy for your suffering.

  4. If the pain runs deep, the power does, too. Most fear the latter, so they settle on the former.

  5. Doing or not doing won’t correct what needs correcting.

  6. Addiction is what you choose in lieu of owning and applying your power.

  7. Every descent reaps more gold.

  8. It’s no one’s job to keep you stable. It’s your job to contend with your own instability.

  9. It hurts so you can learn how to not do that shit that hurts you.

  10. The only ‘tool’ you actually need is custom-built into each moment.

  11. Regardless of the ‘issue’, it’s about your relationship to power.

  12. Stop buying into your own bullshit and you’ll be just fine.

PART THIRTY-NINE

MANDY BITES (THE ‘NO’)

  1. If it’s a NO for your being, it’s a NO for theirs, too. No exceptions.

  4. You demonize another to justify your perpetually ignored NO.

  5. You get what you say yes to. And all the shit that brings.

  6. You need to be willing to say NO without having something to say YES to.

  7. Your system inevitably screams NO when you've ignored its multiple whispers.

  1. he feels the way / a good meal tastes

  9. i am an artist before his lover / i am mine before i am his

Birthday Liger (2024), Montreal, Quebec

PART FOUR

MANDY BITES (NARCISSISM)

  1. The real ‘no contact’ is with the abuser in your head.

  2. To blame the ‘narcissist’ for ‘manipulating’ you into ignoring that initial gut feeling and your brilliant inner knowing is completely absurd.

  3. When someone is free, they appear narcissistic to those still bound by themselves.

  4. The 'narcissist' and his so-called 'prey' are equally sick and addicted.

  5. Everything that surfaced through your dance with the ‘narc’ was there long before you two met.

  6. You lied to yourself before (and more than) they ever lied to you.

  7. The war, the hell, was (already) within. Perfectly out-pictured through ‘abuse’.

  8. The next one won’t be better. The same work will meet you there, too.

  9. Being with someone ugly steals your pretty. I’m not talking about looks. But those go, too.

  5. “At some point, it’s more important to understand what takes you out of it than how to get back into it.” Michael Singer

  6. “Yes, it will kill you. And you have to die lovingly and willingly until that’s what you enjoy; that feeling of freeing yourself by letting go of your ignorance and the illusions you hold inside yourself.” Michael Singer

  7. “Liberation at any cost.” Michael Singer

  8. “The world will show you where you’re not done yet.” Michael Singer

PART TWO

MANDY BITES (CLUTTER)

  1. Organizing clutter doesn’t get rid of clutter.

  2. You know exactly how to clean up your shit.

  3. It’s you putting things in your own way.

  4. They bring their mess to clean you up.

  5. Freshen it up or burn it down.

  6. The cleaner it gets inside and out, the more one notices - and the less one tolerates - debris of any kind.

  7. The only thing that's 'earned' is the state you experience from the work you do to keep that inner non-space pristine.

  8. It takes so little to play with me. But most are filled with so much.

  9. What feels like magic is just you unobstructed.
