  1. @Inliytened1 let me give you some illusory burn cream With some love of course! ♥️❣️♥️
  2. Illusion doesn't mean fake or not real Illusion is not the best word It's rather, "not what it seems to be" Now u tell me. How that compares with an illusion. If i were to take a snake and whip you with it and then you saw it wasn't a snake, it was a rope... Now the fact that you got whipped with a rope vs a snake, does that make you being whipped an illusion?
  3. You can't lose who you think you are. You never had a separate self. These thoughts bouncing around the skull are you.
  4. ☯️☯️☯️ Do not seek love. Do not leave yourself for love, and search for love in the other. Love is not an object, it cannot be given nor taken away. It cannot be found nor lost. Love is not a feeling, a state, or a peak experience, but what you are, presence itself. Individuality is incessantly convinced of its separateness; it bears, believes, hopes, and endures within a perceived encapsulated form, manifesting conditions that perpetually repeat themselves. Authentic love does not see itself separate . . . and thus, when a union of two such persons is realized, this union has wings . . . each wants the absolute best for their beloved, regardless of the consequence to themselves . . . because there is no real separation, or superficiality between the two.
  5. ☯️ Love creating, expanding, separating, merging, dancing, loving, itself.
  6. @Highest @zeroISinfinity stop it both of you! Or I'm calling GOD! ?
  7. @Shin BSing sure. But for "others" sake. Like you make a child happy by playing along with them
  8. @Raptorsin7 It's no different than a movie. Why is it you don't ask after watching a movie that why was it necessary to kill/torture the people in the movie? Because that you understand. This you do not. So. Really, truly, ultimately, there isn't any suffering. There's only love. What you call suffering is also love. Trying to understand this from your limited prespective would be like trying to explain a to a character in a movie that he's not really been shot... Within the movie world, he really has been shot... So that's not deniable. Separation which is illusory is what causes "suffering" That's just by design. It is this way to maximize and create endlessly at all levels Infinite Love is always at work.
  9. All desires... longing in infinte variety for infinte forms, all varied, diverse... Sustaining, protecting, expanding, creating... All love seeking itself while never truly two. Ever-One What a beautiful, elegant, perfect, perfection, marvellous, amazing design ?♥️?♥️?♥️
  10. @Harikrishnan Do the characters in a movie choose their own lines or are their lines pre-determined? The answer depends on which prespective you want to view this question from. Within the movie world prespective vs audience prespective. Same thing with your question about the Ego. God's prespective vs your direct experience right now (aka world's prespective)

  12. I realize that many of you are bhaktas, and I'm taking away your enjoyment. I'm taking away your God that you worship, be it in the form of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus, Moses, whomever you like to worship. But I speak at many levels. As far as a Jnani is concerned it's virtually impossible for a God to exist, separate from yourself. But yet, such people as Nisargadatta Maharaj, Bhagvan Ramana Maharshi, and many other Jnanis did bhakti. Ramana used to pray to Shiva in the form of Arunachala. Nisargadatta also prayed to Shiva. So the question is, why did they do that? And the answer is, for the sake of others. To get to the stage where God does not exist for you any longer is a very high transcendental stage. I do not expect you bhaktas to give up your worship. As you know, on Sunday we have puja and we have chanting. To whom are we chanting? To Hari, to Ram, to Krishna. I must again tell you as long as you believe you are the doer, that you are the body and the mind do not fool yourself into thinking you're not, for if you weren't you wouldn't react the way you react to situations. So as long as you believe that things are real, then you have to pray to God, because God does exist for you. You can call God the law of karma. In reality karma does not exist. Yet how many of us have such reality? Therefore the best thing for you to do is to practice the Jnana practices, but keep doing your puja. Do not give it up. If you're doing japa, whatever practice you have, keep it up. But practice self-inquiry, and as you practice self-inquiry you will notice something very interesting happening to you. You will notice that little by little you begin to give up your worship, slowly but surely, until the day comes when you become the object of your worship. If you've been worshipping Krishna, you will see yourself as Krishna, and so forth. If you try to act like a Jnani before your time, you will have a lot of problems, for you will develop, "I don't give a damn" attitude, and that's not what we're talking about. I'll give you an idea of how a Jnani acts. There was once a Jnani who lived in a little shack on the mountain by himself. He was radiantly happy. He was coming back from his walk, and he saw some thieves breaking into his house. He crept up by the window to see what they would take, and of course he owned nothing. There was just a torn blanket on the floor. So the thieves started to curse, and one said to the other, "This guy has nothing here. Let's just take the blanket and leave." So they took the blanket. The next day he intuitively perceived that the two robbers were caught by the police, so he hurried down to the police station to see what would happen. And when the sergeant saw him he said, "Come in. Are these the men who stole from you?" And he said, "Yes." So the policeman asked him, "What did they take?" and he said, "They took my hat, and my shirt, and my pants, and my shoes." And the two thieves started screaming, "What a liar this man is. He didn't have anything. He just had a torn blanket." And the sergeant said, "Is this true?" The Jnani said, "When I put the blanket on my head it becomes my hat. When I put it around my shoulders it becomes my shirt. When I tie it around my waist it becomes my pants. And when I walk on it, it becomes my shoes." Of course the sergeant laughed and he said, "Shall I press charges?" and the Jnani said, "No." The two thieves became his disciples. The meaning of that story is, because you're a Jnani it doesn't mean you don't have compassion. A real Jnani has more love and compassion than anyone else, but it's not attached to anything, and he'll be the first one to run to somebody's aid, to help somebody. It sounds like a contradiction, but it's not. For while the Jnani carries a body, the body becomes under the Jnanis jurisdiction, and becomes an instrument for good in this world. Therefore you can never judge a Jnani, for you have no idea what a Jnani is or what he is. You can see a Jnani praying to God, just as ardently as a bhakta, yet the Jnani knows there is no God, but does it for the sake of others. So when I tell you there is no God, and there is no universe, and there is no world, and there are no people, there's only absolute reality, do not take it too seriously. See where you're coming from. Be true to yourself. Do not fool yourself. Whatever you're into, whatever you're going through, if you sit in the silence and practice self-inquiry, things will begin to stir within you. Things will begin to happen. You will find that your feelings change, your reaction changes, you become less selfish, you develop loving kindness, you understand what this universe is all about, and you are at peace.

  13. @Nak Khid So much has been written about this, but few seem to understand that this supposed Advaita ( Not 2) Siddhant ( philosophical conclusion) has come about due to the mis-translation of the word ‘Maya’ into English. This Sanskrit term does not translate squarely into English as ‘illusion’. There are subtleties to the meaning, which more correctly can be understood as: ‘That which is not’. Which refines the meaning from: the thing only seems to exist... to: that thing is indeed Real— but is not what I think it is. For Adi Shankara, the world is not an illusion— it is indeed real. But it is Maya. And Maya is also Real. It is an eternal power of Brahman (the Divine). It is the power which keeps the experience of the Divine obscured. That obscuration is also obviously indeed Real. So Maya is Real— not an illusion, which implies thinking something is there when it’s not. Well, It IS there!— but it’s not what we think it is. Based on this mis-translation of Sanskrit, the Neo Non Duality movement has been born. You dream at night is an illusion. But to put out an illusory fire you will to throw illusory water at it. Same way, to quench your illusory thirst you need to drink illusory water. Even though all is an illusion/dream there are still illusory/dream laws which uphold them. Just like i am answering your illusory question with this illusory answer. It can also be left unanswered but i am providing you with illusory water (the answer) for your illusory thirst (the question). What you're asking can be likened to the following: Why does a character in a movie go to lengths to resuce his kidnapped child if it's a movie/fake?
  14. Nothing Can Make You Happy Happiness is what results when there is no seeking. Happiness is the zero. It is the wave crashed back into the ocean. Happiness is what remains when there is no desire or fear. And happiness is what remains when there is nobody there. You are never happy. Whenever you are, there is happiness in the future. You are the raindrop on the windshield. The raindrop on the windshield is not the windshield. Happiness is windshield only. And only when there are no raindrops, there is the windshield. Until of course you recognize that you are never the raindrop and were always the windshield. Then raindrops or rainstorms cannot shake your happiness. Be the windshield. Be yourself. You don't become Happy... you ARE happiness itself.
  15. Stop focusing or listening to the thoughts. You don't think or choose to not think. Thinking happens and is known by you. Consider that you're sitting in a crowded place and are having a conversation with a person. You are focused soley on what that person is saying. There are others around you and your ears also hear their sound, but you're focused soley on the conversation with your friend. Same way, you will find that thoughts will continue... You cannot "stop thinking" But you can choose to focus instead on the silence instead of the thoughts. The thoughts/mind is tricky though and will try to lure your attention to itself. That's where practice comes into play. And yes. By doing this you will come to see that you are Enlightenment itself.
  16. You are not even a human being. You just are a point of awareness, coextensive with time and space and beyond both, the ultimate cause, itself uncaused. If you ask me: ‘Who are you?’ My answer would be: ‘Nothing in particular. Yet I am. • That which makes you think that you are a human is not human. It is but a dimensionless point of consciousness, a conscious nothing; all you can say about yourself is: ‘I am.’ You are pure being — awareness — bliss. To realise that is the end of all seeking. You come to it when you see all you think yourself to be as mere imagination and stand aloof in pure awareness of the transient as transient, imaginary as imaginary, unreal as unreal. It is not at all difficult, but detachment is needed. It is the clinging to the false that makes the true so difficult to see. Once you understand that the false needs time and what needs time is false, you are nearer the Reality, which is timeless, ever in the now. Eternity in time is mere repetitiveness, like the movement of a clock. It flows from the past into the future endlessly, an empty perpetuity. Reality is what makes the present so vital, so different from the past and future, which are merely mental. If you need time to achieve something, it must be false. The real is always with you; you need not wait to be what you are. Only you must not allow your mind to go out of yourself in search. When you want something, ask yourself: do I really need it? and if the answer is no, then just drop it. Nisargadatta Maharaj
