First step is to become directly conscious of that what you call 'I' is a mental illusion/doesn't exist.

True?

i would have nothing nothing different in fact I could have done nothing different what I call "I" doesn't even exist it was all planned out. infintely intelligent. infinitely lovingly. Perfection. Perfect because it happened.

Thank you, great read, so much that resonates here i really agree with your perspective on psychedelics: they are amplifiers

Have faith in the process. You are on the the right path, already - in a sense - completely whole and perfect. Have faith in the design and intelligence Infinite Love is putting into each and every human life, yours included.

Change is love. Love is change. Infinite Love is devastating. It will floor you. It's all-destructive - completely annihilating you.

In a computer game, e.g. World of Warcraft - when your Gnome Mage character dies, do you also die? No. Death "IRL" is the same. It's an illusion. A magic trick of God. Death is the great taboo, when in fact death should almost be celebrated as a great blessing. All that dies is that which wasn't even truly real to begin with: your sense of a finite separated self, the human body/person you think you are. Don't worry, you aren't a human being or a body or a name or a person. You are something that cannot be put into words. Some call it Nothingness, Love, Consciousness, Dao, Brahman, God, etc. ... it's all just words. You are 'that which can't be named' having a meta-experience of being a human being, javfly. Eventually, of course, this meta-experience will also pass, just like all other experiences 'in your life' has passed. Now, what happens when this meta-experience of being javfly passes? No one knows. Cos you are no one. Mystery. Infinity. You see, if you as a human 'knew' what would happen the moment your body died, then we wouldn't call it death, hehe. We only call it death, cos we don't know what happens. One thing I know, is that something will happen. Cos Reality is Nothing. And therefore something will happen. You see? It's all truly nothing; absolutely nothing is going on. It's all so empty you won't believe it. Everything you experience is nothingness. And precisely therefore, of course, since something IS nothing (and vice versa), death is also nothing---- therefore, something will happen. Your question about whether death exist or not depends on perspective. Of course, from the perspective of an ego -- a separated self -- death is the realest thing alive! From a higher perspective that sees that ego/the separate self is illusion/unreal, well, then death is also that: unreal, illusion. Nothing is going to die! Hehe?❤️???? Since you are still asking this fine question, you are still operating from a deep inner persistence on the sense of separate self being real. - there is no one to reincarnate - Infinite Love is what is. It's always the case. You are Infinite Love right now. What hinders you from seeing your true nature (Infinite Love) is ignorance, attachments and unconscious survival-mechanisms. Start from where you are right now: a person. Then start working on becoming conscious of how you came to be that person...childhood and all that. Unravel all your survival mechanisms if you are courageous enough. This takes extreme amounts of openness, radical self-honesty and thus also courage. This isn't easy work. It kills you. Suffering will be necessary. Try to acknowledge/become conscious of the fact that what you call 'your whole life', all your 'voluntary actions', all your rationality, all your 'good, and bad, actions' is one big fat lie. You had nothing to do with it. You are just an extremely efficient survival-machine, an ape in suit, doing everything for only one purpose: biological and social survival: climbing or maintaining the human social ranks of being "a good and/or successful person". Selfish beyond imagination. When you have become fully conscious of the fact that you are one big fat survival machine (which will make your ego cry in pain...- ego hates and fear consciousness/awareness/light), then, only then, can you take the next step, which is: transcendence (of all that). You cannot transcend that which you aren't fully conscious of. Ultimately: love is consciousness is acceptance is transcendence is liberation. Only that which is loved can be understood. Only that which you have become conscious of can be transcended. The roads that do not lead you to the heart are all illusory.

Reality is designed for maximum Love. But God likes pretending - through ego - that it is not. Wake up and you'll see

denying the existence of suffering is denying love, you zen devil <3

Of course there is suffering my young padawan. Look around the globe, your own life. Looots of suffering. But yes, suffering is Love

Without suffering how would one know what happiness is???

The way out is in

not at all i'm using 'remembering' in a very mystical sense though -- not the traditional way an ego remembers "stuff". I could also say enlightenment is being directly conscious of the truth of no-self (there is no one here), i.e. dying on the inside. But what comes after that is the merging of <that 'no one'> with <"Love/God/Light"> (just pointers, remember), i.e. The Godhead regaining direct consciousness of its own divinity through the human ego/avatar/body-mind. But what is God? Well, it's God! Or perhaps second best is: It's nothing! (thus everything). @traveler the path of no path :> @James123 You are very wise - my only tip would perhaps be to not get too addicited to the idea of no-one-ness / nothingness. It's not that nothingness/no-self isn't true -- in a sense it is an absolute like Love (Nothingness=Love=Oneness) -- it's just that one/no-one can sometimes forget that the menu cannot be eaten, only what it points to can. In the same way, we can sit here talking about Truth/Nothingness all day long. But all our words are just pointers. "Just get rid of all the words or whatever you know of, whatever left is it." is a very, very good pointer, because the number 1 obstacle in "this work" is <unquestioned beliefs / thoughts / "knowing" / being-stuck-in-word-games>, but it is not the "truth directly". The "truth directly" will always be an inner mystical direct experience, that in its nature will forever be inherently mystical/unexplainable (just as all experience fundamentally is).

That was a lot of silly conceptual logic, when you could just had said "yes, nothing and something is identical" . Especially for a man who wrote: "Just get rid of all the words or whatever you know of, whatever left is it. " Formlessness, form - fancy concepts. Have you yourself got rid of all the words?:D But I feel you. I like words too. Everything is real in the sense that it exists. Nothing is real in the sense that it is absolute. Everything is a matter of perception and different for everyone. The only true reality is the one that you perceive. You're part of a bigger consciousness - God/Love - that is everything and nothing. There is no time, no space, no something, no nothing. You just are. It's beautiful. It's Love. Pure Being/God/The Absolute/Infinite Love is not nothing. It is not something either. It is what it is. Nothing and all things at the same time. Unspeakable. The Dao that can't be spoken. Let's rest in pure being. No past, no future. No worries, no agenda, no regret. PURE BEEEEEEEEING. Let's gooooooo! <3 loveeeee you everyone, cos you are me<3

Nothing needs awakening ______________________________________ Is 'something' and 'nothing' the same? Is 'nothing' identical to 'something'?

Hi God. Everything - the whole world - is "just" (absolutely divine) a thought: your thoughts as God. But yes, you must be lost in the first place to be able to remember/find yourself again as God. That is absolutely right.

Letting go is letting go <3 trust the universe

God remembering he/she is God.

Of course it's a path. It's the path of least resistance ?

Who is it, then, that believes his mind/ego is afraid of death? Existence isn't dependent on the silly human-mind dualistic concept of life<->death. The feeling exists for you, only because you still believe you are a human being. You should question/contemplate the belief "I am a human being" . Is it really true? Or does it just feel true, because in your childhood every adult around you told you, you were a human and that you were "insert-your-name" and that you were born by X and Y ... ??? What were you before you were given a name, before you were given an identity as a human being?

haha nice! You can also ask questions by putting + instead of - between words i.e: what+is+love and I got: "Love is the courage to be vulnerable" . on point

who is it that thinks death is bad / afraid of it? From an ultimate point of view is there any rational reason to consider death bad/worse than life? Or is all society's fear and taboo of death just a logical consequence of deeply-embedded survival-programming in our genes? What is the difference between life and death anyway but a human-mind-made distinction useful for survival?

Sure, but so is every other 'search' in your life, even the path of not trying to search, hehe.

That's it❤️?
