Did you never had ideas that it seem like if they weren't yours? In fact they are yours, but you don't identify with them, those ideas that people say that it was a "muse" who inspired them.

@Nomad I ask you because I am always looking for other opinions. Ok... maybe you are right. But my experience is that there's really a higher self, a part of us who is connected with something bigger than us. That connection with the universe, with everything. That's is everything but is you too... that is my concept of God. God is the "I AM", so basically we are Gods. I know it sounds contradictory, because it is. It's a paradox, I don't know.

Teal Swan is awesome, cause she's pretty

@Nomad I edited my post and I added something more. I like your way of thinking. Maybe I change again, cause I am nothing LoL

How do you like to call it? Energy? Universe? Nature? the law of attraction?? The Absolute? The no absolute truth???... But you are saying that "there are times when our projections are accurate? " They are accurate compared with what? With the absolute truth? I call absolute thruth God, but that doesn't mean that my idea of God is from 500 BC, it's actually a pretty modern and "Matrix like" idea of God. But I call it God anyway.

@Nomad Do you think that you are your collection of memories, experiences, opinions of others that you assimilate as yours, etc? ... You said you had an experience of no identity, what are you when you don't know your identity? You are an awareness or a consciousness right?... that's what we are. When I say we are nothing, it means our ego, what we collect from our experiences and contact with other people, etc.

What if God is the only absolute truth? But we can't understand him?. That's what I think it happens, but I am always having my mind open to any possibility. I think...

@FocusOnTruth @Nomad I must say that thinking that we are nothing (I mean our identity and ego) had helped me to overcome a lot of fears. So I think that the point is not believe that you are your beliefs and be able to change to grow and feel better.

Cool! Not the lack of chronic indigestion, the experiences seem cool hehehe... The ultimate truth is that we know nothing. Lol

@Nomad Just nothing, even your own identity disappears, it happened to me once.

@Nomad Is Nothingness real?

What is the real trouble? To see the reality instead of your or mine beliefs?

Great Journal Emerald! I posted a comment on one of your videos and I am subscribed to your channel. I really like it, I will check some more videos but you did a great job, very professional. I am thinking in opening a channel about how to draw comics, you encouraged me to do one.

@Natasha hahahaha... pretty doggie. Is it yours?

I didn't have your experience, because my family is not very religious. But I was on a christian church like two or three years. I learned a lot and I moved. Now I'm not sure what the people I used to see in the church think about why I left. But I am pretty sure that they think that "the devil" has lead me astray hehehehe... You are in a more difficult situation than me if your family is very religious.

@Curious30 What is your definition of real? It looks real too me... but what it means to be real? "Do you think is air what you are breathing now?"

I am reading the Biography of Steve Jobs and Autobiography Of A Yogi by Yogananda. And I have some books of Kabbalah waiting to be read soon. Edited: I forgot to mention Ouspensky "The Fourth Way"

Nice post @Elton

These are my disagreements

@Natasha I agree with your comment about killing the ego

I am working on that, but I wonder if I will be charged of manslaughter

I don't disagree, but my ego does... what can I do?
