  1. Hi!
  2. Actually, God is pretty logical, but God's logic is of a higher order than any human logic. God's logic is transcendental, absolute, and really twisted, involving all sorts of contradictions and impossibilities. A finite mind has a finite logic. An infinite mind has an infintie logic.
  3. Sheldrake is of course correct, but he does not go far enough. His critiques are too shallow.
  4. They usually say 5 years, but that assumes you're actively doing self-help work.
  5. In practice humans must be drawing maps to survive. You can stop drawing maps if you enter a state of total nonduality and not-knowing. Being = Absolute Truth No. Like I told you, paradox is necessary here. It is not a mistake. Absolute Truth != relative truth Absolute Truth = relative truth Both are the case, depending on perspective. The glass is both half-full and half-empty at the same time.
  6. Lol, you don't need my advice on phones. You can figure that out yourself.
  7. Since God IS Love, it cannot hold on to Love only for itself, since that would not be Love. The greatest act of Love is to share it with an infinite number of others. Therefore God is not just Unity, it is infinite division. So here we are. Ta-da! You can experience Infinite Love. More than experience, you can be it. You can be what the universe was before the Big Bang. It's more fucked up than that. I invented you guys so that I can distract myself from an Infinite Love so great that it would end my life and the entire universe. You are what keeps me alive.
  8. You could say that, but you could also not Paradox is generally a function of dualistic cognition and symbolic representation. When you are in a state of Infinite Consciousness and total ONENESS, there is no paradox. Notice that you don't find paradox out in the world. You find it when you think about reality. Thinking is necesarily paradoxical because thinking is duality, and two must become one. The ego-mind is what experiences paradox. To a rock, there is no paradox. A rock just is. It isn't thinking about its isness, but you are.
  9. You're still only 1 inch deep. Go deeper.
  10. This want is otherwise known as LOVE. God gives up Oneness so that others may experience Oneness. Because other cannot exist within Oneness, only twoness.
  11. Okay, good then. No, you align concepts with Absolute Truth. That's why science works at all. Conventional science has always been aligning concepts with Absolute Truth, they just are conscious that they are doing so. They're doing in unconsciously via trail and error. Easy, because all concepts are Absolute Truth! Lol Like I said, the map is not the territory. But also, the map IS the territory! This contradiction/paradox is not a mistake, it arises necessarily because everything is ONE. Relative and absolute truth is different, but also identical. Depending on how you look at it. Remember, reality is perspectival. This gets extremely tricky here because we are using mind to explain mind, language to explain language, which results in self-reference paradoxes and strange loops. It's as if you are standing in the middle of New York City trying to draw a map of the city which must be so accurate and complete that it must also include a map of you drawing a map, drawing a map, drawing a map, drawing a map... to infinity.
  12. Again, the problem here is the historical baggage and the dualistic and materialistic notion of "experience" and "perception". This is a very limited paradigm. What empiricism think of as "human experience/perception" is actually Absolute Being/Consciousness. But they don't understand that. Empriciism is inherently dualistic and materialist. These are better, but again, the philosophies come with a ton of historical baggage and none of them are quite right. Consciousness is the only way. Since Consciousness = Truth, and falsehood does not exist at all. There are two notions of truth that get confused. One is Absolute Truth and the other is relative truth. Relative truths are the truths of science. These are always limited and partial truths. They are distinguished by correspondence. Ex. "It is hot outside" >> you go outside and it is cold. Therefore, false. No. A concept of truth is not truth itself. You can't create a method. The only method is trial and error and consciousness. Your method can use concepts of course. But concepts are not identical to truth. The map is not the territory. But also, the map is the territory. Look, these are extremely nuanced and profound points that must be contemplated by you for YEARS. This not suitable for an internet discussion. When, some day, I publish my book, all of this will be explained. But I cannot explain it here.
  13. Certainly possible. You'd have to look through more videos of his to find his darker, lower moments -- if they exist. That specific video clip is pure Orange. Great example. Although I even see some Green in that clip where he is caring towards his employees. Many pure Orange bosses would not treat their employees so kindly with positive feedback. Compare to Gordon Ramsey. I'd bet Gary has at least 20% Green.
  14. Enlightenment ain't sainthood. Enlightened people do all sorts of dumb and selfish things.
  15. Harem is what I call it when you're banging a horde of your students. I dunno. Maybe it's just rumors. Maybe I should start a harem. Life would be more fun.
  16. Good! Welcome to the spiritual life There's more. Oh so much more....
  17. Except women are not happy in harems. So there's that little wrinkle. Thanks, but my teachings are certainly not pure. But they are profound, I've grant you that Be careful not to turn this stuff into empty ideology. If it isn't true in your experience, it isn't true at all.
  18. It's called the Big Bang. How do you think you got here? You were one, and now you are two. Some day you will be one again.
  19. @Aaron p Then why Mooji running a harem, if he's so above it all? You can talk enlightenment all you want, but I know you got skeletons in that closet.
  20. Don't personally attack fellow forum members.
  21. World Peace? Lol. Yeah, of course. Everyone in the world wants world peace. The problem is how do you get 7 billion selfish and ignorant devils to behave peacefully?
