@Bill W There are many Awakened people. Not proportional to total population of course, but they're out there He presents it in a way that modern folk can comprehend and resonate with. But Truth is Truth. Try not to fall into that trap.

@Shaun concept and imagination. You aren't conscious of this as an Absolute yet, these are all fictions in your head. When you have a mystical experience that reveals Oneness to you, then you shall be conscious of it, and it will no longer matter to you because you have discovered you are God. This is tricky, tricky stuff.

@Shiva @Shin

I'm sure i speak for the mods when i say let's not turn this into personal attacks. Everyone is allowed their perspective and we should respect that.

@Bestyle2209 Wasn't meaning it like that, it was merely a question. Because whatever ideas you may or may not have about Truth or being God actually aren't it. That's knowing it...but to really truly know it you need to become it. Or in other words become what you always were. This cannot be accomplished via the rational, logical mind. It must be accomplished via mysticism. Afterall, Reality is fundamentally mystical in nature. The rational mind lies within Reality and thus cannot reach outside to grasp reality. Becoming a mystic doesnt happen overnight despite what one might think. And even one mystical experience will only reveal part of the Truth to you, if any at all.

@Aeris i think that's what Zero meant, but there is no telling with him Love u zero!

@mandyjw i think you meant David Hammond was full of crap and not Leo right? Typo?

@Bill W i disagree.

@nistake LOL. Dont start

It's how you look at it so in that sense it's relative. But there is an Absolute point. And that is to discover that you ARE the Absolute point. And to become it eternally in it's purest form. The formless.

@Bestyle2209 Let me ask you this...do you know you are God yet?

@Bestyle2209 Everyone is already enlightened

@Shiva i love that.

@mandyjw The Truth cannot be spoken, but it must be spoken I believe we heard someone say that before......

@Truth Addict you speak the truth relative to you. That's your perspective. But their is a higher Truth. An Absolute. The Absolute perspective. Which is no perspective at all actually it's just pure Being or Isness. God in his purest form - the formLESS. That's what some of the folks here don't want to believe. And those of us who have become it, become ourselves, only disservice or turn God into the Devil by trying to convince others of it. It's the snake eating its own tail.

They're conscious but they're not conscious that they are conscious. Everything is made of consciousness. But not everything is self conscious and yet even less are conscious that they are self conscious. Rocks are not self conscious. It's not much different than your ideas of things now - but it's not happening inside a brain and there is no objective world out there. There is only consciousness, and everything is contained within.

@Flatworld Crusades i ageee. There is no place for shouting profanity at other people. If it comes to that the person should take a break from this and do some real introspection.

@Flatworld Crusades Understood. But when one's entire belief system or paradigm is threatened it can indeed cause one to implode. And we are talking about paradigm shifts here.

@Flatworld Crusades Yes but also remember this is very radical and advanced stuff. It is par for the course that it is going to spark heated discussion and debate. At the end of the day we must respect all perspectives. And to do that we must be able to see things and understand things from multiple perspectives - to jump between them. Truth is Absolute. It is the Absolute perspective. It will reveal itself when it chooses.

@sausagehead as you grow and become more conscious, you will start caring more about these things. When i was your age all i cared about was getting drunk and getting some ass. For some of us it takes time. But when your mind opens you will become a sponge and want to absorb everything around you.

Warning; Driving while meditating can by deadly if mystical experience happens. But then again would it matter at that point?

Try to read a 1-2 books a month. The teaching company has some great lectures too that you can get off audible.com or join their membership.

@Truth Addict cool Avatar

@Anton_Pierre suffering my own egoic devilry...then changing my ways..then suffering through the change. One must change to grow.

Life is a delicate balancing act.
