  1. @AtheisticNonduality Whatever helps you sleep at night.
  2. God is imagining millions of years of evolution in order to paint a convincing dream. This dream you're dreaming would not feel "real" unless everything had a backstory. It is unacceptable to you to just say that you always existed. You need to invent the backstory that you were born. And so with every object inside the dream. You keep asking where every object inside the dream came from in order to distract yourself from realizing you are dreaming. Each backstory you tell yourself creates a false ground for your "reality". The more backstories you tell yourself, the deeper they go, the more convinced you become that your dream is real.
  3. @Juliano Zn Beginnings and ends are imaginary. So of course God -- the one doing the imagining, YOU -- cannot be subject to them.
  4. Whatever object exists within "the world" -- God must imagine an infinite chain of causation that explains its existence. The story of every object stretches infinitely far in all directions and all dimensions, thus allowing it to exist here and now. God is a mind that spins an infinite story. So if you see a civil society existing on some planet, there must be an infinite story to explain how it got there.
  5. But how was civil society created? The answer to that question IS all of human history. God has to bootstrap itself. History is that process.
  6. You have to be flexible. Intention is good, but don't force it on the trip. Let the trip show you want you need to know. Eventually your intentions will kick in. Just not necessarily on that 1 trip. Dozens of trips are necessary.
  7. Bullshitting that much is hard work
  8. @Strangeloop Do you jerk off to porn of hot women? If not, then you gay.
  9. The sugery never happened. It is imagianry. And so it Rupert Spira. Sam Harris is arguing with himself. And so are you. Ta-da!
  10. When you realize consciousness is infinite, nothing else remains.
  11. You can't point to the Truth since Truth is everything. How can you point to EVERYTHING?
  12. @Air Keep it up and you'll be kicked from here. Be here to learn. Not to spread your ignorance.
  13. No, no, no! None of what you think is Truth is Truth. And these kind of threads are hopelessly wrong. So wrong it takes too much time to explain how wrong they are. If you want to awaken, drop this nonsense. TRUTH IS EVERYTHING.
  14. Everything is the same, silly. You are Sam Harris. But good luck telling him that.
  15. That is a dogma. Sam Harris is not awake. And of course he cannot admit this to his audience as it would discredit and embarrass him and shake their materialist, rationalist worldview. So he plays these games and fools him audience along with him. They have no clue how wrong his epistemology and metaphysics is.
  16. And our point is that Sam is God. Lol The mistake Sam is making is that he's actually KNOWING that we cannot know. This is not not-knowing, this is knowing. And false knowing at that. If he truly didn't know he would be open to the idea that he could definitively know that materialism is false. But he believes this to be impossible, which is just a lack of imagination on his part. Sam confuses his inability to imagine how one could know whether idealism or materialism is true with the actual ability to do so. Just because he can't imagine it, doesn't mean it cannot be done. Classic epistemic mistake.
  17. Hence why I stress that there are many degrees of awakening. Otherwise you get stuff like this.
  18. Plenty of people develop no-mind but are still dogmatic. The problem is that an empty mind does not guarantee that when your mind starts turning it doesn't turn out shit. Emptying your goldfish's bowl does not guarantee him what he really needs, which is clean water. The opposite of dirty water is not no water, it is clean water.
  19. Behind every word is wordlessness, so be never disappointed.
  20. Just recorded a new 2hr blog video. Coming soon
  21. Anything becomes a dogma if you are dogmatic about it. The problem is not the thing itself but how your mind holds it. And a dogmatic mind will hold all things dogmatically, be it science or religion or spirituality or even nonduality or love. And even -- drum roll.... -- being nondogmatic. In a delicious irony, the dogmatic mind will turn being nondogmatic into a dogma! Dogma gonna dog
  22. Are they still doing the same juvenile shit 8 years later? I swear, once you make it on YT your development gets frozen in stone. There's nothing like that sweet, sweet YT money to make you forget all about growing yourself. Manchildren
