@pluto i concur. I think you need a lot of life experience and natural consciousness growth. All of my awakenings were without psychedelics - so I'm gifted in that way. But i can intuit that psychedelics can take you there but you need to be conscious before hand. You have to have suffered and started to get rid of your devilish ways such as dishonesty, to name one. And much more that can't even be described. But this is something i intuit - I've not had direct experience with DMT or any psychedelic. For all i know it can bring you Absolute Intelligence immediately in some cases. I can say without a doubt though, from direct experience, that mysticism is for real. I was an atheist my whole life until i stumbled on spirituality at age 48. I was already gaining wisdom naturally and selflessness and honesty were some of the biggest things i had learned. That said - it was the very enlightenment videos on self inquiry from Leo that awoke me. That was the first awakening many to follow - the final being God's perspective and Oneness. So - i saw your post in the other section and i cannot dispute you on the pyschedelics - but to say Leo should not be making enlightenment videos is false and you may wanna rethink that. You also may wanna think twice before you dismiss Love. I have felt Absolute Love through all of my awakenings - its presence is undeniable. So to say Leo shouldn't make videos on that either is a lack of consciousness on your part.

Its just consciousness. That "someone else" is just a section of the One Mind. There's no physical world "behind the scenes" it's just isness or Being. @Pouyanailed it.

That's just it. You are still coming at this conceptually and you really need a direct experience into the nature of Reality for yourself. Leo can't do it for you, @tsuki or myself can't do it for you. In the end only you can.

@Aakash i think you understand things, but then you try overthink it thinking you don't..and then you end up jumbling everything up in your mind and it gets mushed all together leaving you a vegetable LOL. Like duality is all devilry, etc etc. It is OK to dwell in form because it itself is Love and Creation. Devilry, or Good and Evil, are dualities which Collapse into Absolute Goodness ÷ Absolute Love. God wants to experience limitation and limitation means there will be suffering and devilry. You can collapse these while still in the physical world..its not easy but you can. So don't think you have to leave your body to achieve Nirvana - it is right here its just that most are not that conscious. All of us have work to get to that level of consciousness. The reincarnation topic about continually Reincarnating if you don't leave the world of form - well - if Nirvana is both then it shouldn't matter. Either realm is the same as they are One. Its just a choice the enlightened Being can make.

He has to obtain nirvikalpa samadhi first..he's putting the cart before the horse. I just got back from a meditation session - @Aakash do you do other things besides post on here? Learning and/or teaching on here is a spiritual technique in itself i discovered - but are you finding time to meditate as well?

Then i will definitely make the decision to attempt this!

@tedens for sure. Ain't no ego there no more

@Aakash i prefer to stick around for a while. But this might be an endeavor i approach as i reach the limit of the physical body in terms of years.

Have to discover this for yourself...but i got a direct non-dual "hit" of Infinity and its nature. It contains all qualities. One of these is no qualities. When everything and nothing are superimposed or fused you get a dream or a hologram or an hallucination. That's what you are dude.

I would concur - it is more about realizations of the nature of Reality and thus a realization of true self.

You are at that! And you are working out for yourself and your own health not to impress others. Heck you probably meditate while doing squats LOL.

Well you are stuck with yourself

Yes - but the key thing here is they stop trying to look perfect. They no longer concern themselves with vanity. Or it is way diminished down to nothing. And they stop caring what others think. They love and accept themselves fully with all of their finite imperfections. Because these imperfections are an aspect of Perfection. And it collapses into One.

Lol no that's just my finite mind trying to describe it. Its the map not the territory. In reality we can't really describe a mystical experience. Language can't.

@AlphaAbundance they stop caring buddy.

@Jkris thanks. Yes i know talking about this stuff is supposed to be sacred ground but it is still hard not to wanna talk about it. Besides we are ultimately just sharing it with ourselves anyway

Congratulations on this! You definitely do enough contemplation to where it was bound to happen!

That must have been something! Or nothing

@tsuki that's beautiful @tsuki!! Thanks for sharing! I saw myself in that video. I had that same mystical experience where i was sitting in my living room, and all of a sudden i understood all of reality. That happened a few days after the realization that i was nothing (pure awareness).

@Jkris information gathering really but ultimately you are right. In addition actuality cannot be explained with language - but nevertheless we can try It's just to see how the human brings back Truth and what it felt like to them. Nothing more. It cannot be anything more. When you become actual Truth there is no need for anything.

You must walk before you can run. The first awakening you need is to realize you are a hologram. This will shatter the materialist paradigm Can you stomach that?

@Aakash Reality negates itself. It has infinite qualities. One of those is nothingness.

@Aakash Pure isness is outside of time and space and therefore beyond it. It is frozen Divinity.

Ok I'll start. My first experience was frozen. Meaning it was Divine and outside of time and space. I became conscious that i was nothing. Pure awareness or Infinity. I felt the bliss of Love and pure consciousness although at the time i didn't realize it was Absolute Love. I remember experiencing the dark night of the soul. I knew that i had died. I look back now and realize that i had died and become pure consciousness. I was reborn with the knowledge that i was nothing. I was Infinity and infinity negates itself. Why? Because it has all qualities - including the quality of nothing. I was a hologram. That was my first mystical experience.

@Aakash that's right. You're very being is a strange loop! But if you hit a non-dual state it should be Divine. It is outside of time and space and therefore would appear in actuality in slow motion. Frozen in actuality if you will.
