Are you referring to a why for self actualizing (personal development) or for spirituality (to discover Absolute Truth)? I know in the end they come together (self actualizing becomes Self Actualizing hehe) but what is your current focus?

Perhaps some self inquiry is in order? What you actually are is not localized in any way its omnipresent. Everywhere and nowhere. Hence pure Actuality!

Ofcourse- regardless of your level of consciousness you are always creating..and when you realize the Absolute you will dissolve into Absolute Love and Goodness. Which is not a finite thought or logical label. It simply IS. So yeah i wouldn't worry too much about the stages or take them on as dogma as they are just models - continue the work and find out for yourself. And as you mentioned take a meta POV on how you are currently viewing meaninglessness and realize that that is still applying a meaning to something. Just like non-existence is a thought within existence. (All there is is existence)

@Intraplanetary you are the Creator of meaning. And of meaninglessness.

@Javfly33 i think you will find stress in most jobs. Stress is a part of life. The key is how you respond to stress. Its vital to find a healthy release valve. For me that release valve is the gym. I do a run, lift some weights, and sit in the sauna. Afterwards i have this amazing feeling of well being where i can just sit and meditate for an hour or so. So that's a much healthier alternative than turning to let's say drugs or alcohol which are horrible on the body. (Besides all the other potentially negative affects they can have on your life) Just some thoughts my brother! Stay the course and much love

Maybe you will become conscious that we are you, and all in your Mind

Then by this point you are blind. Idiot is a lack of compassion. Unconscious is a better description.

Regardless of approval, he is using his "conquest" of Covid as a ploy to ignite his followers. We will see ultimately if his followers are enough to win four more years. There is a really good chance of it unfortunately. I hope the nation can pull forward and advance past his regime - but i am not so sure that is where we are at collectively.

Your soul is also a thought that appeared

Or before. There is really no body or before. There is no one truly alive or dead, there is just God. But God can trick itself so it can discover itself again over and over. Awaken.

Yes. It can because it is Infinite. Whatever perspective it takes is what it is. It is realizing that it is itself which is enlightenment.

Their light does shine beautifully - the light of Love. But that needs no powers. And yes even an enlightened master still has some impurities. Otherwise he would have already dissolved into Infinity and be dead. And if any of them tell you different they aren't yet awake.

Babies do not have a developed ego so they are free from devilry...but they are not yet conscious that they are God.

Be careful of materialistic definitions. Remember science today does not yet grasp that Consciousness is fundamental and that brains exist within consciousness not vice versa. Science has yet to catch up. And it could be hundreds of years Next - Consciousness is Infinity. Meaning infinity is all possibilities - which means it ultimately negates itself. And you get a Mind for reality. So Infinity itself is not an illusion as it is unlimited and eternal. What appears within infinity - or the limited parts within infnity - is the illusion - or you could say - what is imagined by Inifnity. Waking up is when what is being imagined by Infinity realizes it is in fact the whole thing, and so it becomes the whole thing. You can see the twisted paradoxical nature here. The serpent eating its own tail.

Indeed

@Persipnei to grasp this you really have to break away from the materialist paradigm or the paradigm of physicalism - which suggests a physical and thus objective, reality. Think of reality rather as a giant Mind. Think of it as Infinity. Infinity and Consciousness are synonymous. You can think of it as a field, but it is not truly a field - truly it is absolutely nothing. Completely formless. This is because it is absolutely infinite. That's what Consciousness actually is. And thats what you are in your Absolute form - which is nothing. That is the Absolute. The relative, or finite, is when Infinity splinters itself into finite parts. The substance of these parts are still nothing, but they appear as a particular type of finite form. Each part has its own angle or POV of reality. Because it is a piece of reality. It is whatever piece or POV of reality that it is. And so there appears to be nothing but these finite pieces of reality. This is how reality experiences itself. Through these subjective, finite points of view it is able to explore itself. Or you can think of it as Infinity imagines itself as a limited form so that it can see itself through that lens. And reality is a collection of these lenses. And simultaneously it is completely One and unsplintered.

Bingo. It comes full circle.

Alone is still an accurate description of the realization of Oneness because God can feel. That is the part that can't be described.

Well when God wakes up separation is shattered.

You can get even deeper than that. There is no difference between anything. The ego and God are One. When you hit that the mind will go insane because it cannot grasp Truth which is Being.

This is why Truth can never be described as much as we all want to. It can never be described. This forum will always fall.short and should never be mistaken for being able to give you Truth.

I am that i am

Ok guys for egos not to exist we are sure getting hot.

Back at ya!
