Sempiternity

Solipsism is the highest form of love. All the problems one has comes from other being other to you. This leads to disconnect, stories, meaning, judgments, etc. The highest love is Unity, Oneness. To collapse the disconnect. Everything in direct experience is one thing: Consciousness. Direct experience is equal to Existence, is equal to Consciousness, is equal to Reality, is equal to Being, is equal to Awareness, is equal to All that there is, is equal to God, is equal to You, is equal to Other. You are all of it, so 'other' is You. Self Love is to love all of it, as yourself. That is the highest love.

I'd look into Nonduality. Something and Nothing are the same thing. A dream is consciousness, which has no substance. It is nothing and the appearance of something, simultaneously. Leo covers this in his videos.

Take the example of dreams. You are experiencing reality from a first-person perspective, you have a body, there's gravity, there's physics, you meet other people, and everything in that reality is 100% real to you. But that reality, and everything in it, is one thing: Consciousness/Mind. No self is the illusion that the first-person perspective and body, and mind, are separate from the whole. The whole is God imaging reality. Consciousness is God creating a reality where there is an illusion of separateness, so it can experience "other", and, makes itself forget it did so, so it can experience this reality unfettered by this knowledge. You're not the space between things, you are the whole of all that is direct experience. And just like a dream, the substance is nothing. Just Consciousness. Which is nothing imaging itself as something.

The answer has been shared here a million times. Dedicate yourself to psychedelic ceremonies. Although you can Awaken from one ceremony, it most likely will take dozens or more to Awaken. It can take a hundred ceremonies to Awaken, and it can take a hundred Awakenings to understand Awakening. Take a heros dose of Mushrooms. Get a couple gms of 5-MEO. Experiment with doses, upping the amount every time. Push through the fear. Do ceremony every week, until an Awaking happens. If you say you don't have access to any of that, that is an excuse. Travel to get it. Do anything to make it happen. Be unstoppable in this goal, as if your life depends on it, cause it sounds like it does. Anything less than this dedication is you wanting to wallow in your misery.

Is this an A.I. response? Cause it very much seems like a A.I response, as in nonsensical.

Reality is consciousness. God is consciousness, creating reality, creating itself to be what is direct experience. Because God is creating reality, and reality is consciousness, that means that God is creating consciousness. Or in other words God is creating itself.

There is no center. God is unlimited imagination. God is also Nothing. From nothing, God imagines itself to be a reality, where it's a person, that sees reality through a first-person perspective, and everything in that reality is separate. Its imagination is so unlimited, it all seems so perfectly real. Everything is God. Everything in reality is happening within Consciousness. Consciousness=God. All of reality is God's dream/mind. Can't explain it more simple than that. If one does not get it, they're not capable of getting it.

It's both. Just like in a dream, all of that dream reality is one thing: your mind/consciousness. Your body, the eyes you see out of, gravity, physics, the environment, and every person you meet and talk to, are all created by your mind. So you are the dream and the dreamer simultaneously. You are the creator and the creation. And what's another word for creator?

Because I had Awakenings, where self, time, and reality are gone, an experience of 'death', yet Consciousness is ever present. A knowing of eternity. A knowing of God being all that there is. Also, meditate, this is Awareness and Being, without thought.

I personally hate this way of thinking, as in trying to make everyone happy. When you try to cater to everyone, with all different kinds of backgrounds, beliefs and sensibilities, you end up making something bland (see marvel movies for example) that usually ends up making no one happy. Instead I think if you're going to make something, make it niche and focused. Make it something you're passionate about. Those that will resonate with will love it, those that are not at that level will not, and that's okay.

I was a hardcore Atheist for 30 years, ever since I was a little kid. I even wrote papers on the subject. Then one day I took 6 gms of mushrooms and had an Awakening. I immediately threw out all my work, and never looked back. Been on the Spiritual path ever since.

Once the illusion of self and reality is not present, there is still Consciousness. Consciousness is God. Consciousness is self-knowing. Awareness.

Being does not require thought. Meditation is being without thought. God is infinite Being.

Another thing one can do is accept that it's all you. Existence is = to Being, which is = Now, which is = to Consciousness, which is all there is. Everything experienced happens within Consciousness. Consciousness is God creating itself, out of nothing, to appear to be this reality experiencing itself through a first-person perspective. And makes itself think that there is more outside of direct experience, and that everything within direct experience is all separate, even though it's all one thing: Consciousness/Dream/Illusion/God/You. If you don't resist Solipsism, you accept that it's all you. There is no separation to anything. Everyone you love is you. That's unity. That's real love. That separation is the disconnect you feel with everyone. Unity is the real deal love.

Yep, you let yourself fall back asleep. You can be a lucid dreamer, aware that it's all your dream and none of it matters at all, or you can make yourself forget and enjoy it all as if it's all real. It's all your choice.

You're hitting on one of the most fascinating aspects of Awakening to me. It's a subject I rarely see talked about. It's the one part of it all (God/Source/Reality/Consciousness) I don't quite understand, and have often pondered about. When I go to 'source', or Awaken, I call it a Remembering. I remember everything, who and what I am. It's like 'of course !! How did I forget this!?'. But soon after coming back, it all goes away. Only hints of it. Shadows of it. And for me, a frustration in the forgetting. I like to use dreams as a reference. When in a dream, it's all 100% real to you. It's formlessness, pure unlimited imagination. All 100% your mind creating itself into a reality, that you believe is 100% real. When one wakes up, you (most of the time) forget the dream. To me, maybe the secrete lies in being a Lucid Dreamer. You train your mind to wake up in the dream, being able to remain in the dream, and have full access to the creation of that reality. God consciousness, with awareness to create at will. And in doing so, maybe the dream becomes more real to you, so when you wake, you have better dream-recall. One of the key aspects of Lucid Dreaming is practicing dream-recall. One could maybe practice dream recall, in reality and in the dream. And maybe, if one practices enough, then maybe Consciousness would be better prepared to recall when returning from Source/God Consciousness. Just a theory, but all I can think of to tackle this phenomenon.

How is Oneness a trap? The Absolute and Relative are One.

I kinda disagree with this. If one has a profound understanding of the nature of Reality, that is all One, it's all Consciousness, it's all God, it's all You/Me, then one understands that anything in Reality is exactly how it is designed to be. No matter what is occurring Now, is what God is making itself to be, and it can't be any other way than what it is. Anything that Reality is, is all equal, as it's all Consciousness, Nothingness. It's all equally meaningless. So if reality is being part of a cult, or running a cult and having 'followers', that is what God/Consciousness wanted to be. And it's just as nothingness, meaningless, a dream, as anything else it could be.

If one is a billionaire, they are by definition a selfish greedy asshole. To have that kind of money, you need to be hording money that could be doing good in the world. How much does one really need to live comfortably? Let's just say 5 million. A million dollar home bought and fully paid for. And 4 million to pay for all your bills and vacations for the rest of your life. Lets be generous and double that to 10 million. You would have everything you could ever need for the rest of your life. That means if you are a billionaire, you could use like 99.9% of your wealth to really help your fellow man. And if you did so, you would not be a billionaire anymore. Hence why if you do have that kind of money, you are automatically a greedy selfish monster, because you could help others but choose not to.

Agree to disagree. Just because someone does not die in a life-threatening situation does not mean their instincts were on point. If a person's instincts tell them to stay in a burning building, and the fire department comes and puts out the fire before they burn to death and they survive, it does not mean their survival instincts were right. It means they had poor survival instincts and were extremely lucky they didn't die.

I don't buy that reasoning at all. If a crazed person with an ax is being violently and hacking at things around me, I'm not going to just take the chance and assume he's going to keep chopping at things and not start chopping at humans at any moment. Survival instincts are not betting your life in a potentially deadly situation. It takes nothing to just remove yourself from the situation for your own safety. To not do so is beyond foolish.

This was one is crazy to me. Guy in library violently chopping at everything with an ax, and everyone in the library barely react at all. Like zero survival instincts. He walks up and chops a computer, inches from a guys head and the guy doesn't even flinch. As far he as he knew, the next chop could have been his head, but didn't care. Everyone just goes about their business, as if a crazy ax wielding maniac isn't attacking everything with an ax. NPCs indeed. And then the cops unload their magazines at him at point-blank range, and he still lives.

Woman commits felony arson, calls 911 to get police to come, then invites officers into her home to watch video evidence of her committing the crime.
