@Truth Addict Sure, but WHY is it this way and not some other way? -

Does she actually say what it is? Or is it just beating around the bush? -

Otherwise known as freedom. You are so used to living in a jail cell that when some hands you the key you tell him, "Why would I want to leave? It's comfy in here." -

Just because you're in some state of no-mind or absorption doesn't mean you have insight into reality. Meditative states are not good enough here. You have to want insight. Which requiring questioning. You can bliss out in meditation all you want, but it doesn't mean you understand what's going on and why. -

Your question makes no sense. -

Do you honestly think that all of the fine structures of reality are here willy-nilly? Just an accident that happens to turn out like this? -

@Angelite Allah's love does not discriminate between ego and God, love and hate. -

You have much to learn of what Zen is. True Zen acknowledges Love. -
Leo Gura replied to Leo Gura's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Angelite You have been given the freedom to accept or reject love. Exercise this freedom as you wish. -

This is Allah speaking through the vessel known as Leo. I assure you, my love unlimited. Any vessel who speaks of my hating any aspects of my Creation is not pure enough to be speaking for me. -

@Echoes A Zen saying: "Before one studies Zen, mountains are mountains and waters are waters; after a first glimpse into the truth of Zen, mountains are no longer mountains and waters are no longer waters; after enlightenment, mountains are once again mountains and waters once again waters." -
My classifications are very loose approximations. It very much depends on which parts of the country you consider. No country is a single color. That's an oversimplification we make for sake of convenience. So yes, your classifications may be slightly different than mine.

Again, it's tricky here. God's plan is so epic that it's hard for the human mind to comprehend. The plan is highly non-linear. It's not like a movie director planning out a movie. Rather God's plan involves creating creators and giving them freedom to creator. It's a sort of meta-plan. The plan is to allow as many beings as possible to experience being God. For this plan to succeed God cannot force you to do stuff. God has to allow freedom for experimentation, making mistakes, conflict, catastrophe, etc. Things are not set in stone. Everything is fluid, and yet it all works perfectly in the end. That's the genius of the design. Any fool can write a linear story. But how do you write a story which allows every character in the story to write his own story and not have it turn into utter chaos? See, since God is totally selfless, it is not interested in ruling over you. It is interested in having you rule over yourself. So you could know the glory of being God. God is like the ultimate massively multiplayer video game designer. How you play the game is in your hands. It's an infinite sandbox. The plan is that you make the plan -

@Matt8800 What are you fave psychedelics? Do you notice differences between them such that some are better for certain purposes than others? P.S. If you haven't tried DPT, that's one of the most occult-like psychedelics I've tried. You could probably do some amazing stuff with it. It's highly visionary. -

@Swagala Very nice! Some deep insights there. Amazing that you're able to get that from weed. Whatever you're smoking, keep smoking it -

I'm not saying that cancer is acting out of some personal love that it feels. Rather, cancer is simply a byproduct of the entire structure of the universe, which is designed to maximize love. For example, God created you with the freedom to create things. You can create a cigarette and smoke it. Then you can get cancer from it. That is simply a byproduct of how you choose to live your life and what you choose to create. God doesn't mind giving you enough rope to hang yourself. This is how you learn what life is. Cancer is largely a creation of mankind. We created it with the food and chemicals we create. If mankind really wanted to, we could restructure society to eliminate 95% of cancer cases. God's top priority is not your comfort but your freedom. You are free to poison yourself and the planet. You are free to nuke the whole world. That's the fun of creation. God wants to see what you will create. Will you create heaven or hell? Either way is fine from God's POV because God's Love is unlimited. Nothing you create, no matter how horrific, can shake God' Love. God will Love it because God is all things and God is too conscious to hate itself. God is incapable of self-hatred, other than through human form. Self-hatred is only possible at less than infinite consciousness. It's tricky here because, remember, the future is imaginary. When you realize that, your question will sort of resolve itself. I have experienced omniscience. It is possible. But it doesn't work the way you imagine. It's not about predicting the future. It's about realizing that you imagine everything. -
It doesn't matter how much water you have. Just need to up the dose. Keep in mind that any dose I share with you guys, most of you will need significantly more because I am abnormally sensitive.

You are making a mockery of Allah. Allah hates no one. Killing is a necessary part of life. Without killing there could not be human society at it now exists. I didn't say to kill for no reason. Life is complex and there are often good reasons for killing. War is not an accident. It is a necessary part of life. Look at it from the POV of the tumor. That tumor is reproducing because it wants to live. Who are you to judge that the tumor is wrong? Do you see the self-bias in your view? Obviously you want your dog to live, but that's only one POV. You have to realize that reality does not merely revolve around what your ego wants. There is a much larger design which you are overlooking. With that said, sorry about your dog, and know that upon death your dog will melt into pure Infinite Love. So don't feel bad for it. Everything is Perfect of course, but that's not quite the same as what I mean by Love. Good work! I would call that conscious and open relationship/communication. Of course there some love there too. Not quite. Although non-resistance is somewhat related. From the absolute perspective, nothing. But the key is becoming conscious of what Love is. Without that it's hard to understand what loving really is. The most important thing is not to act lovingly, but to have an awakening to what Love is. It's similar to acting selflessly. Selfless action is less important than realizing there is no self. Human expressions of love are always partial and not the best for all. In the relative domain, yes, love can be abused. Love can be used to justify all sorts of devilry. Good God! Sounds like you've been through hell. You are amazing. Not exactly sure what you mean. I try to have a full range of expressiveness. I'm not trying to act lovey-dovey all the time to fit some kind of stereotype of a loving person. But also I am still very much in the process of purifying myself. I'm nowhere near complete. As I eliminate various defilements I will appear more loving from your POV. -
@dinone Of course it varies. Don't forget there are genuine stage Blue Christians who are decent folks and aren't necessarily wrapped up in luxury or materialism. But today the mixture of Blue & Orange is very popular in rural parts of the US.

Of course that will help greatly. But don't expect to be perfect at it. Yes, he's very good at teaching how to love. I don't know if merely saying such things will trigger an awakening. To be safe you'd want to supplement with psychedelics or other methods. But of course such affirmations and visualizations can be great. -

The chief behavioral commitment of Love is to act selflessly for the greatest good of the universe. But of course in practice it's not gonna be all rainbows and butterflies. You'll probably have to kill some people -
Unfortunately catastrophe will not push people towards Green, it will do the opposite. A serious survival threat will push people down one or two levels. Which is what we're seeing with Trump of the North and Trump of the South. The angrier people get, the worse leaders they elect.

Of course. Lowercase love is ordinary human love as an emotion. It is limited and conditional. It has an opposite: hate. Uppercase Love is an Absolute with no opposite. It is the substrate of all existence. It includes love + hate and everything else. It is not an emotion although it can trigger strong emotions of lowercase love. Uppercase Love is a mystical awakening. It is a kind of enlightenment. This is usually a combination of feeling loving + insight into the nature of what existence is. Afterwards although you may not feel loving all the time, you still know that all of existence is Love. Love no longer is limited to a personal feeling. You can feel angry and still know it is a form of Love. The highest feelings you get which motivate your life are a little taste of Love. But just a little taste. You will recognize the full scope of Love the moment you realize you just died. Love = Death -

@Schahin But notice that your attitude shows disdain for destruction. Creation cannot occur without destruction. So by judging or demonizing one, you unwittingly shoot yourself in the foot and reject the large totality of reality. If you hate any aspect of reality, you are hating yourself, which means you are disconnected from God's Love and your vision is clouded by ego & delusion. Total enlightenment robs you of the ability to judge reality. Sorry. I know how much you love to hate, but that shit won't fly if you want to reach the highest levels of understanding. -

Without survival you could not experience anything. So survival is the #1 requirement of any kind of formed existence. The purpose is to have you experience the multiplicity of Creation, the formed world. You are just like a droplet of water which has to break off from the ocean, fly up into the air, and then re-merge with the ocean. The purpose of this is to experience what it's like to be separated from the ocean and then to rediscover what it's like to be the ocean. You can't appreciate being the whole ocean without first breaking off and being a drop.
