You become God. You become red. Thus you ARE God. Thus, you ARE red. When we say I we are recontexualizing the meaning of I. @amanen hit on it. The key is identity. When you become it you identify AS it. This is implicit. That's what we mean by I. Not the ego although that is a form of I.

You cannot open another's mind. But you can try ..like this guy. https://youtu.be/pbj4Te_guxY

Welcome back dude!!!

You are mistaking language for what he is pointing at here. When you do awaken you will realize self is an illusion but your identity shifts to Self. Self has the intelligence to be able to identify with itself. But don't mistake that with the finite "I". It is all encompassing.

Thanks well you have said you had some awakenings yourself when we talked correct? How have things been going since? As for othet tools - Self inquiry, meditation (namely do nothing meditation and concentration meditation) . While listening to Leo's original enlightenment videos. Yes I would want everyone to awaken if it were possible. However you as the ego will die and the ego doesn't take to dying very well. Not everyone is mentally stable enough to awaken - as there are some very rough periods where you will feel like you are losing your mind. It doesn't mean people with mental illness can't awaken but there needs be a degree of level headedness. But even with the rough patches - the Bliss and Divinity make that all worth it. But just as a rabbit will never become enlightened - most beings won't either. I stopped worrying about everything. And It really takes the fear of death away. That doesn't mean I want to die - so I am still cautious. But you won't panic about stuff like you did in the past. You also see the Divinity in everything after experiencing God. It makes reality magical. You don't worry about your mortality or your physical ailments so much anymore.

There is no "my" experience. There is only Being..and that's what You are. This is Total. Also your questions about being limited to human senses - keep in mind that Absolutely speaking your senses are not yours as in the small self. That is an illusion where the ego has appeared to co-opt them. Perception is an illusion. There is only Being. What you deem as sight, sound, touch, smell, etc are not human senses they are the raw Being of the Universe. They are Absolute Truth. Again this requires a shift in consciousness to Absolute Consciousness.

Because you are ascribing a negative connotation to illusion...but isn't that relative? Why does illusion have to be negative? When you look at what happens behind the scenes of that video game it kinda takes the wind out of your sails as the player. You don't want to know the Truth that stuff is rendered only when directly experienced. But that is the most efficient way to design the game. And it doesn't affect the players experience. It's only when the player sees behind the curtain that it can affect him because the player has bias and is finite - he wants the game to be a certain way for him even in its design, even if its not the most intelligent design. Anyway, that's why we say spirituality and Truth is so dangerous to the ego ?

Why would whether other minds had separate experiences matter to your question? It really doesn't. Why couldn't you create this experience regardless? In fact wouldn't it be even simpler to just have one mind yet the the appearance or illusion of other minds ? What's the difference as long as you imagine they are separate? If you think about it, there really is no difference. It's just that we are bias towards having some tyoe of physical, material separation.

We don't. There is only You. We are projections of your mind. When you awaken you realize this.

This is exactly right. This can be directly validated of course. Also if you really think about it - it is your mind that is constructing the self and other duality. In truth You never needed self and other. There is just Self. It's just that Self has fragmented itself to appear as self, and then others out there. (Other minds) When in actuality none of this is even needed. Only one Mind is needed. It can then expand to be everything or it can contract to appear finite. It is just a subtle shift in consciousness to get a glimpse of this. That shift is the expansion.

You know ? Becoming is not knowing. It is Being

@Someone here neuroscience is only one aspect of science. They need to incorporate holism, along with open mindedness and original thinking. If you notice- it was the founding fathers of quantum physics that went on to become mystics - and they were original thinkers and could think beyond just one particular part of science. They were able to think holistically.

Of course do not take anything as a belief. But where do you get that only your finite consciousness exists? You ARE Infinity constructing the entire world along with your finite ego ? when this is realized you become Infinite.

Exactly.

This should break your mind. It doesn't require a how. "How" is also something it creates.

Yes - exactly. On another point I do agree with what Leo was saying in that video - about how reality and imagination is a duality that collapses so when you imagine other is real, since imagination is reality it IS real. That's why when you are dreaming at night you cannot tell the difference between it being a dream and reality. Which is nice because in that sense we can really create any type of reality we want, and we can feel a deeper connection to other than we could from the materialist paradigm. So there is no need, as he said, to feel like any of this is a negative.

If they do they are identical to you. So they ultimately collapse into you. In my awakenings my consciousness expanded to reveal that this dream and all beings in the dream are a figment of your mind. Anything outside, including other beings became inside. So infinity is indeed like a fractal absorbing anything outside and making it inside.

Lol.

Correct. I may have said those words in haste. Carry on. By the way - since both of you may be enlightened masters - I suggest you both save the squabbling for a less conscious forum....if there is such a thing .

Do you think quantity of trips can simply overwhelm brain chemistry and genetics? I wish that were the case, but we have seen time and time again that it does not. I think one needs to alter their own brain chemistry and rewire- its not just about popping a pill and God will magically appear.

@Jannes try embracing what you inutit is true. Trust your intuition. What does it tell you? If it tells you that science and thd materialist paradigm governs reality then so be it. Intuition is more powerful then Intelligence. Start letting that guide you. It.may open up doors that you could not budge with intelligence.

It was a compliment. Trust me you don't wanna be the average Joe. He's lost.

Yes. Accept and forgive yourself because they were not your fault. There was never a you

Stop thinking about the past and it doesn't exist.

You can though. Its just that you haven't. You have to remember infinity. You aren't gonna get it in one go. In fact, there is always more. That is it's nature. So one day you may awaken and realize in your Infinite Intelligence how you are doing it. That is omniscience. You will be omniscient. But then..you will forget again. Yet you might take away a sliver of a memory that you were once omniscient.
