Reality does not need a mechanism! All mechanisms reside within it. That's the beauty of it.

Better to go for the direct experience via meditation and self inquiry.

@Travelion he's in your imagination.

Yeah i agree with you on that.

@dimitri??

Time is an illusion as is the tree. Duality is an illusion. But illusion is reality (the reality of form) pure formlessness is Truth. Thats why when "you" "die" "you" will melt into pure formlessness or Absolute Infinity.

Just study Quantum Mechanics. Study modern physics and Einstein's relativity. Can get some good ones from the Great Courses or the Teaching Company. Then listen to Leo's videos on Absolute Infinity, what is perception. The idea that reality has any physical substance will be completely debunked for you. But be careful what you wish for. To discover directly that you are made of nothing and that this is a hallucination is disturbing.

I have become directly conscious of it. Or rather, Consciousness has become directly conscious of itself. Enlightenment. The collapse of all duality. It's a miracle.

Indeed maybe they missed your video on quantum mechanics. A lot of work went into that one.

Just to be clear - Awakening isn't a paradigm. It is Absolute Truth not a belief or worldview. So if you haven't awakened then yes it is still a paradigm and none of this should be taken on faith. Thats why the title if the post says materialists need to contemplate

Haha - maybe its 5-MeO time for you then Infinite Love time

Exactly. Direct experience is Truth.

I'm imagining it.

Haha. You put me in an existential bind. If I'm bothered by this than you (myself) wins and i defeat myself by believing there is others. If i don't then i let myself remain deceived.

No. Isness. Enlightenment. Keep contemplating.

Really? How does it happen outside your mind? What would it be outside of the perception of it?

EXACTLY. The entire question is imaginary. Now the only question left is to discover if that is true - for yourself.

No i didn't. Go back to the original question and answer it honestly. If a tree falls in the forest with no one there or conscious of it - does it even happen?

Reality is a mind and not physical. There is only Mind and the finite perspective it wants to break itself into. If it wishes not to divide it is One.

The Absolute Truth is it's Infinite Mind or Infinity responding to you. But to get even deeper its just Infinity talking to itself. I literally have to imagine you are real to have a discussion with you. Contemplate right now if you really wanna become conscious of all of reality. Better get used to spending a lot of time with yourself.

Still a materialist. Do you believe there is a world existing outside your door right now?

Excellently put!!! Until you become conscious of Absolute Truth!!! Once you do you will realize i am imaginary though - so you are proving it to no one. (Or yourself)

Infinity. Exactly.

Yes from your true perspective, the Godhead, all minds are within your own Mind. It is all your dream.

Well said.
