Are you in the body you think you are? Besides the notion of indivisibleness? -

https://www.boredpanda.com/animal-eyes-photography-suren-manvelyan/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=BPFacebook Take a look at each of these pictures of animal eyes. Isn't it so cool they look so much like celestial bodies? (some more abstract than others, of course) That alone is just breathtaking... #3 is incredible ... A fun fan theory to speculate is that maybe the eyes manifest in such primordial patterns because it is the only thing it can't see---itself. (at least through visual sight). (even in a mirror, how much time do you spend actually looking at your eyes?) Without the visual feed of itself it hasn't evolved past its primordial appearance apart from the necessary survival evolution changes. Anyway, despite what's true about eyes, they are heavenly. Perhaps that's the only truth to them... -

@Mafortu loved that ?? @BipolarGrowth one of the best things you can do right now is stop saying 'he' in relation to God. Not that I can sit here and explain to you what is God, but I don't even see how there could be a God of something indivisible., ?♂️ -

@Leo Gura ah OK perhaps 'the great climb' or "the great spiral ride" could be a better moniker, if it needed one -

A dream is any use of imagination. Look throughout your day today and report back anything that didn't happen in imagination. Really think about it too... like for example a cow mooed next to you. That seems undeniable right? But was it even slightly colored by imagination? Be honest. -

I would assume the great awakening includes this orange and green awakening which we are experiencing now if we look at this particular time-stamp. Your answer is not reflecting the whole of the experience, right? Do you really not see a great awakening if you step back and look at the whole? I suppose this all hinges on believing in the story of human progression? -
((Reading music, or you can listen to it before reading to settle the mind)) Authentic Experience Chapter Five: 8-15 5:8 The first cornerstone is like the carrot on the end of a string. It's what propels the whole inquiry- the pursuit of what's authentic and real. This will be benefited by daily practice of seeking out what's authentic about any situation or stimuli, and not subscribing to beliefs about them. 5:9 It can also refer to 'having a direct conscious experience of being'-- and the author equates this to awakening or enlightenment. However, as with anything, results may vary and at the very least the questioner will have a direct experience of what's true in inquiries. 5:10-11 In cultural knowledge, there's two widely accepted ways of obtaining knowledge. That's either the scientific method, or the 'spiritual' one of hearing what someone says and adopting as a belief. (how ironic, that's not spiritual at all lol) Either way, though, a belief is adopted if one is not getting a direct experience of what's true. 5:12 One must acknowledge that the truth can be found in the object of inquiry, that it’s the thing's inherent nature and can't be found by beliefs or conclusions. Author acknowledges something that I've been skeptic on… how can one pick something at random and experience the direct truth of it, without adopting any beliefs or hearsay? I guess we can only continue and find out… 5:13-14 However he does promise this is possible, and must happen completely 'independent of our perceptions.' And even this claim he does want us to accept as true (belief) but to experience the truth of it ourselves. 5:15 I have already been getting used the idea that I don't know jack shit-- but I sat back and let it set in again. I am so tired of pretending to know things. All that misplaced energy maintaining that could be put to better use elsewhere. Honesty Chapter Five:16-22 ~~Anything more than the truth would be too much. ---Robert Frost~~ 5:16 Honesty is integral to an authentic experience because pure honesty is a call to drop our reactions to the subject, and be open to what is authentically there. Often, we hear the word honesty and mistake our reactions to that word as the real authentic experience of what the word represents. 5:17 We are habitually not authentically honest. Like clockwork, any times an unaware experiencer encounters an experience, it is so overlaid with thoughts, beliefs, biases, etc. that we don't typically ever experience anything in its pure authentic form. Not without giving up cultural knowing, that is. We are not searching for the cultural definition of honesty, but 'aligning ourselves with what is already true.' 5:18-22 Basically just learn to be honest with yourself. This inquiry can't begin without it.

I think you are seeing the reflections... As above so below can apply to social structures, I would assume. As if the human race(/Earth) is on some unified hero's journey... Hey that would make a good novel ?? -
