You can have some degree of wokeness while keeping those fantasies. But you won't reach the highest levels of wokeness unless you're willing to surrender them. Look, in the end it's very simple. Do you want to know Truth? If you do, you'll be willing to surrender all your ideas to attain it. Whatever is True, is True. There's really no need to worry about it. If solipsism is false, then why you worried about it? And if it's true, why are you worried about it? Subjectively, relatively, I've experienced it as melting into Infinite Love. It feels like you melt into the entire Universe. But even this is not quite correct because from the Absolute POV death simply never even happens. It cannot happen. There is only Consciousness and nothing else. Death is imaginary.

@Tetcher @Hello from Russia Do not derail this topic with petty bickering.

I stressed the point about making a commitment to never harm one's body recently in this video: https://www.actualized.org/articles/is-actualized-a-cult

Keep in mind that suicide is not so rare in the general population. 48,000 suicides in the USA in 2018. My videos have nearly 100 million views. With numbers like that, some of our members will at some point commit suicide. This is inevitable. And ultimately, people have the sovereignty to kill themselves. You cannot stop them if they are set on it. Nor do you even have the right to stop them as that is you imposing your agenda and will on them. What's important to underscore is that spirituality and enlightenment has nothing to do with physically harming the body. I've said that in the past and I will stress it more in the future. A few weeks ago I started to add larger disclaimers to my videos stressing the point that enlightenment has nothing to do with harming of the body. You can find the new, larger, clearer disclaimers under my recent videos on YT. These larger, clearer disclaimers will soon also be added to the Actualized Clips channel. It is very important that people who follow these teachings clearly understand that these teachings have nothing to do with physical harm of one's body or prematurely ending one's life. Which is really obvious, but it must be stressed regardless because some people get very foolish ideas. Life is a dream and a game, but if you jump off a bridge, this dream will end and you will probably regret it. Not only should you not harm your physical body, you should take good care of it, being extra responsible with your health. A spiritual person must treat their health with more care than the average person.

I have hydrogen.

A) Are you sure this is true? How do you know he jumped off a bridge? B) I don't understand what jumping off a bridge has to do with spiritual work. Did he tell you what his logic was? C) Did he say if he had a history of mental illness?

Hehe, welcome to the wonderful world of idiot doctors. $150 is cheap. It gets a lot worse. In fact, you got a double case of SIBO: hydrogen and methane. Which will be harder to cure. P.S. You cannot use any garlic if you have SIBO. You should avoid all spices to be safe. Just use salt.

@Vision You obviously got SIBO. What is there to even discuss? The bottom line is you gotta kill that shit to zero.

No it isn't. You are saying misleading things and I don't sense that you know what God is. I said the things I said in my recent video precisely because no-self and enlightenment is not enough to realize God. I know many enlightened people, and few of them have realized God. You can argue with this all you want, but I have made my position clear and that is what I teach. If you don't like it, feel free to teach whatever you want to your people. Those few who some day realize what I have realized will understand why I stress what I stress and not something else. Realize what God is. The rest is childsplay.

If you know the material and you train yourself its not so hard. And I use outlines in some cases.

You should be able to clear that out with the antibiotics. Try doing 1 month of natural antibiotics, carnivore, and no probiotics. That should clear out a lot of stuff and end your bloating. Although there are no guarantees. Gut bacteria imbalances can be very challenging to fix, especially if you have some underlying health issues like auto-immunity.

@Flowerfaeiry Do you want to know how you created reality?

Usually a probiotic is not a good first option. It is safer to kill off the bad bacteria with antibotics, and then slowly add probiotics after your antibotics are done. Many probiotics contains prebiotics which will feed the bad bacteria. So you must avoid prebiotics until you kill them off. Doing a month of natural antibiotics is the best way to begin this process. But you have to take them seriously, 3x per day for at least a month.

Sounds like you got some imbalance in your gut bacteria which feeds on sugars and carbs. That's why carnivore helps, but also isn't enough because you gotta kill the bad bugs. Your doc can prescribe some antibiotics or you can use natural antibiotics over a month like Allicin, grapefruit seed extract, berberine, oregano oil, and others. Probiotics could help, but they could also make things worse. Depends. Getting a SIBO breath test will tell you if you got SIBO, which is likely.

God is no-self. God is Infinite Self. There is no contradiction here at all. Nothing = Infinity BUT!!! Just because you realize no-self does not mean you realize God/Infinity. It's easier to realize no-self than it is to realize God/Infinity. And there are many degrees of realizing God/Infinity. I don't know why you guys are so confused about these matters since this is basic nondual theory. There is nothing controversial here.

You should be going out 3-4 nights a week for at least a year, every week, with the goal of doing 1000-5000 approaches. This is what is realistically takes to get results.

Stop overthinking and go talk to girls. You will discover the answers as you try to attract them.

Stop making these kind of threads.

@The Mystical Man You are making it into a false choice. You can do both. What I stress is pure consciousness and understanding, because that's what matters most to me. Everything else is secondary. You can be at peace and all that, but still not be fully conscious.

No The mind's capacity for denial is infinite. The key is to be conscious of what you're doing. No. God is a tautology. There is no possibility of you not being God. God-realization is not a concept. God-realization is not a function of argument. Well, what you're missing is that Truth is a far deeper thing than language, logic, argument, or proof. That is because you judge me by my outside behavior and also because you cannot know the counterfactual of how I would have been without them. Hehehe... I have a deeper understanding of consciousness and reality than Zen teachers with 40 years of full-time meditation. But you don't understand that. You keep waiting for me to act spiritual for you, like some Eckhart Tolle. What you don't know though is how I act has nothing to do with what I have become conscious of. Again, these are human games you play. As far as playing the human spiritual game, I'm not so impressive -- but that's all you see and care about. There is no way I could teach what I teach without all the psychedelics I've taken. Even with 40 years of practice I would not be able to teach at my current level.

With Ralston it's like squeezing tears from a stone

A better example would be 3D rendered child porn. It doesn't hurt any children. But people will still hate it.

Certainly not. You are not conscious of what Love is. - - - - - Actually I disagree with this Vipassana approach. It's too reductionistic. I understand what you are saying: you can deconstruct experience into discrete sensations and so forth as Vipassana loves to do, and this can be very useful and liberating. But this is not the same thing as a holistic consciousness of what things are. It's the spiritual equivalent of saying that the physical universe is nothing more than atoms. And this not correct. There is an understanding beyond the sum of its parts. Which is precisely why Vipassana people are not God-realized. They don't know what God is because you cannot know God by breaking experience down into atoms. I would further say that you cannot know what Consciousness is that way either. There is a holistic infinite intelligence to Consciousness which is not any of its parts. God is not any one sensation, nor can it be said to be just another experience among all the other experiences, like a table or a dog. It is sort of like one who cannot recognize a human as a human because one insists on only seeing it as a bunch of cells. And what I'm pointing out is that something very important is missed in that approach. In fact, THE most important thing is missed. The goal should not be to atomize consciousness, but rather to interconnect it all infinitely to reach the highest understanding. People like Shinzen Young, who spent 40 years in Vipassana deconstructing sensations are not God-realized. I questioned him very carefully. He does not understand what God is. He's a sweet and beautiful man, but God-realized he is not, and I don't want you to get trapped in that way. People like Daniel Ingram also do not understand what God is -- even though Ingram has extraordinary technical meditative skill. Technical meditative skill is not good enough. Losing the ego is also not enough. What's missing is a holistic universal comprehension achieved by Infinite Mind. The Universe can grasp itself using its own Infinite Intelligence. And Intelligence is not any one sensation so you will never find it if you insist on only looking at individual sensations. It is the classic problem of missing the forest for the trees. Vipassana is like studying trees with a microscope and never seeing the forest.
