Whatever you want. Your God That being said - like I said before if you want to awaken throw all this shit away. Go find some isolated spot in the wilderness and get rid of this phone, this forum, and all social media. All social media is within the dream that you are trying to wake up from. Then just meditate.

What is meant by that is that you are God cosplaying a human. So the paradox you felt saying yes but no is the strange loop of God, Infinity or Oneness.

Remember you are a trickster of the highest order. Because without deception/illusion there could not be duality or two.

This is all the ego - don't you see?

@Gustav look on the bright side - paradoxically suffering is growth. Have you tried powerful psychedelics yet such as 5-MeO? Martin Ball says it demolished the ego instantly. It may just not be the right time in your life to awaken. If thats the case turn your gaze towards ego development not destruction. The time shall come for enlightenment. But not a moment before. Do not underestimate Infinity.

Everyone's path is unique. Of course it is - but awakening cannot be forced because if it comes from ego it will never come. That's the key. Awakening is the cessation of the ego - so it has to be spontaneous or by surprise. The ego, should it catch on, will seize awakening for itself and it will never happen. My awakening was via meditation and it was a series of massive sub-awakenings (in which i became conscious of various facets) all within a few months. But it was all by surprise when i started the spiritual work i began self inquiry not knowing anything about what i was getting into. Spirituality found me so to speak - after i stumbled on Leo's work - and caught the ego by surprise. It also depends on where you are in life in terms of baseline consciousness, life experience, deep levels of suffering from your own selfishness, etc. If you are filled with too many concepts and want the truth so badly you are truly ready to die for it, then use all the tools available to you. DMT has been known to overwhelm the ego seamlessly (Marin Ball)

@Cireeric if you can break away from the materialist paradigm it will make sense. It does not make any sense under that paradigm. But if reality is mind - then it begins to make sense. You got a glimpse that there may be some truth to this - but you will need to go deeper and get a direct realization of how reality actually is to truly transcend that paradigm.

In actual ego death (not conceptual) there is a radical recontextualization of reality. In the direct realization of no self, what you thought you were - an entity behind the eyes, is revealed to be an illusion. With that, the duality of Subject/Object, Self/Other, collapses and what remains is pure Being/Isness. This is a state of samadhi or a non-dual state. It can be called God Consciousness or Absolute Truth. Very few have reached such a state. And actually from this state there are no others so to say very few is of course still a duality - although one may not realize this on that awakening.

@StarStruck not if it's one of those talking parrots They may start talking like an egoic human in no time at all...

@BlackMaze There is a grand design by a Grand Master. But this master is not a human. It is selfless. At the deepest level you are the Master. But it could take years of work to become conscious of this even if just for a moment.

It is Absolute Love ❤

His questions are legit once you have had a spiritual awakening not a conceptual one. Also there is more to THIS then the realization or facet of Truth that there is no you. Don't get me wrong that is a massive realization and a key facet - but THIS - isn't just happening...its deeper than that and you haven't had those realizations yet. THIS is Infinity - and it's Infinite in every dimension imaginable. That's why God is the best word we can use to describe it with language. The map ain't the territory of course but all we can do here is draw maps. So God, because its Infinite - is what you are fundamentally, and you can become directly conscious of this. There isn't some external entity looking at Infinity (THIS) from a distance.. That is a duality. There is nothing outside of Inifnity. You ARE it. Don't confuse that with the ego that's not what we are discussing here.

To experience Absolute Love. Love is Itself. Itself is Infinity. Oneness. It will result in paradox. This is a feature not a bug. It does.

Death is the easy part. Attachments are the hard part.

@Thought Art a lot of how you look as you get older is going to be genetic. But you can do things we always talk about - diet, exercise, minimize alcohol, etc to keep the body oiled and greased which will keep you feeling good for a very long time barring any major health issue. You can look super young but still feel like total crap if you neglect the body and fill it with toxins all the time.

@dsfs they have limb lengthening surgery now if you have 70k to blow. Its not a really high consciousness thing to do - it is all ego - but its out there.

Indeed - its one of God's greatest illusions. God is the ultimate illusionist!

Consciousness is nothing so you are always nothing. Time and events are actually something you are imagining. You actually never slept a day in your life - meaning total lack of consciousness is something you are imagining - or something consciousness imagines because it is Infinite. This stuff goes really deep.

This This This ?

Yes, by forgetting its God.

Infinity is nothingness. If it is not something you are imagining, it exists as Infinity or actual nothing (pure Actuality)

Ultimately it is God's Will - which is your will, since you are God. As a human or your small self, it only appears you have free will - because, well, the small self is but an appearance.

Why are you asking us if we could be imaginary? Find out for yourself!

@actualizing25 in my opinion this is one of the reasons why powerful psychedelics are recommended here. My awakening was via meditation - but the key for me was i stumbled apon spirituality. You already may be at a point where you know too much - meaning the ego has seized awakening for itself and made it its own. Now you have built a web of stories around enlightenment that might act as a shield for the ego, not the other way around. That's how tricky this is. Well lemme tell you, when doing the actual spiritual work the ego will not have a damn thing to say about it. With meditation ego death could happen seamlessly - but in your situation it will more than likely press back at you and recoil in terror - to prevent you from further spiritual work....but with a powerful psychedelic it would be overwhelmed and slain seamlessly - and this whole conversation becomes a moot point. Something to keep in mind.

When there is only One thing - you create the illusion of two, and then buy into your own trick. Quite brilliant actually! Oh i forgot - it's Infinite ? You're Infinite
