  1. I reject this whole nonduality frame. Serious Consciousness is beyond all that. If you wanna keep swimming around in circles at this plane of consciousness, go ahead. I will not argue with you further.
  2. Your consciousness is changing throughout your life. You are sometimes conscious of more and sometimes less. If you insist on reducing Consciousness to a constant void, you can do that, but you will miss the higher aspects of Consciousness in that case. That's what Buddhism does.
  3. You just don't need all these extra distinctions you are creating. You can create them, but they will obscure the realization of ONENESS. If you just expand your notion of mind to be total, then your understanding will be much more elegant and profound.
  4. This is so misleading and problematic because level of consciousness changes. The changes of Consciousness transcends the notion of time, but in a simpistic sense it takes time.
  5. It doesn't need to arise out of anything since "out" and "in" are just constructs of Consciousness. Consciousness is not "in" anything and it has no "outside". Since these notions are inventions of Consciousness. It's like you're asking, Where is space located? The answer cannot be another space. Space is not located anywhere because location only applies inside space. Space itself cannot have a location. Any thing "that is" is a construct of Consciousness. Consciousness is just a void in which stuff arises. The void itself does not need another place or thing from which to arise. Void is rock bottom, so to speak. It's void all the way down. Void is infinite. You don't ask where void came from. If you are asking that then you haven't realized void, you are theorizing about it but missing the actual thing being pointed to. It's like you are talking about the moon without ever actually looking at it.
  6. No way. But I do understand things he does not. At least according to me. Whether that's true is up for you to discover.
  7. Again, this is inventing extra stuff called mind and perceptions. Mind is one, total, and absolute. The end. Stop here.
  8. Newport Beach, CA is one of the best places in the US. But hella expensive. Florida Keys are really cool, but hurricanes ruin it. Hawaii is awesome but impractically remote and limited.
  9. Why do you need to lead her? Let her do her own thing. Two bossy people should just go their seperate ways and lead seperate teams. Trying to change the personality style of your sister is a foolish endeavor. Just as it would be foolish for me to try to mold you into a beta male. You would not be happy with that. You can't change the core of someone's personality. That is a dysfunctional aim.
  10. No, that's also incorrect. Consciousness is not constant.
  11. Not depressed, but amazed and shocked by the realness and seriousness of life. It's def challenging, but a good kind of challenge. These videos show you how much you live in a bubble of comfort and safety.
  12. This is imaginary. These are constructs of Consciousness. No. They are identical.
  13. It is the dream and it is the void in which the dream takes place. These are identical. Everything is identical, in the end.
  14. I do not recognize anything beyond Consciousness. There can only be one thing. That thing is Consciousness. There is nothing beyond it. You have to really grasp the monumental nature of ONENESS. If you grasp ONENESS then this issue of stuff beyond it, or relative vs absolute, or form vs formless, or mind vs absolute, or self vs other, becomes silly.
  15. Because he obviously has a very deep and exceptional level of consciousness. But as I have said, there are many degrees and even different kinds of awakening. I gave him a privileged position back before I had my own intense awakenings in which I realized the limitations in his teachings. It took me 200+ awakenings to deconstruct all the elaborate illusions of nonduality, Buddhism, and self-inquiry. That was when I was saying crazy sounding-shit and people were calling me out as arrogant and delusional. After which point I stopped pushing my views on matters since it becomes counter-productive. Well, I am still saying that there is even deeper consciousness than that. It took me something like 200+ awakenings to break free of all human spirituality and gain total soverienty over my own mind. Until that is achieved the mind will be bogged down by very sneaky human spiritual constructs.
  16. It's is kinda shocking that he didn't understand this sooner. If he listened to me and took some "frog juice" he would have realized it, and stuff even beyond that which is still missing from his teachings. As I said, self-inquiry and contemplation will not be enough to fully awaken. That's the real lesson here. I have underscored this trap that nonduality people commonly make, where they identify Truth/Absolute as formlessness while marginalizing form. And Ralston is still missing that Truth = Love.
  17. That's not what this topic is about. This topic is about the study of the realities of policing, which most people have no awareness of.
  18. Roof ninja caught living in store sign for one year:
  19. He did become worse after Covid. It's quite noticable how Covid politics warped his mind. Musk also became worse over that time. People are brainwashing and radicalizing themselves.
  20. They are not insane. They are bitter and hateful and want to make others feel as hurt as they feel.
