No it doesn't. That's something you are inferring or projecting falsely onto me. I simply asked you that to get a feel of where you stood in life - what your metaphysical views were and what your overall view on reality was. I didn’t do this so that I would have more leverage on you- I did this so that I could get to know you. But of course, you reacted with hostility. This is only because I called you out on philosophical views that you have never considered. So you were caught with your pants down, so to speak. It's all good. We can converse knowing your worldview is null. I just wanted to know who I was to be conversing with. With that said - I would be happy to answer anything you would like to ask about reality. As for me - I'm a 53 year old enlightened idealist - who couldn't fathom anything else for reality but consciousness. There cannot be anything outside of consciousness and there never will be.

There is nothing wrong with asking one-s worldview. It's just a question.

Dude I'm gonna be honest here- you are seriously out there. I will leave it at that.

It's quite simple now. I'm going to poke you a bit here, but don't take it personally. You seem highly intelligent, so you should be able to understand that I'm doing this with your best interests in mind. In your view - is reality objective? Meaning it exists independently of your consciousness- and for that matter it exists independently of consciousness in general? Then - if such answer is yes - than what is it objectively made of? Is it atoms? Quarks? Strings? Have you done any research into quantum physics? There... either way, now you have a worldview.

No no. There is no yours. It's just One. I don't have a consciousness to unite with yours. What you thought was my consciousness is held within your consciousness

But also the Eternal One is dreaming everything - including "other" and you are not the self or ego but you are the "eternal one". And so all "other" are merely figments of your imagination. What he was trying to convey is that there is nothing outside of your consciousness. NOTHING. You are IT.

That's not what I asked you. I asked you for what your view on the nature of reality was. I am eager to share mine. Do you find shyness in sharing yours? There is no need to be shy.

@Yimpa it's funny how all you have to do is ask a person for their worldview and they go silent..like trees or mudcrabs..... mostly because they haven't even put the time in to establish one.

Ok...then how about you tell us a little about your own worldview or paradigm. Do you mind expanding on what your views on reality are? After all, you find yourself on a metaphysical forum, so I can only assume you take interest in philosophical concepts. Why don't you enlighten us with your paradigm.

I'm not sure where you are going here other than to troll. If your objective is to trigger me it's obviously not working. Since you have under 10 posts I can easily deduce that you are most likely a previously banned user. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt but just ease off a bit.

Not tomorrow's.

Every one is unique.

Limitations of language.

Well - let's roll with the metaphysical idealist paradigm. You have to remember that according to this paradigm you are God proper - and you will live through an infinite number of lives. Not all of those lives have to wake up and realize they are God. The ones that do, do. And they will be God realized. The ones that won't, wont.

No. I believe- and there have been many debates on this here on the forum - but I truly believe it's simply genetic. Your genetic makeup. Just like when you create a character in a video game and you give it certain amounts in attributes- such as intuition and intelligence.

Yeah I was looking back at that just as you posted. Here's the misunderstanding. This whole thing IS a dream. So its not that they cannot dream- they simply fail to become conscious that reality is not made of material such as atoms but it is made up of figments of consciousness. Does that make sense? What are figments of consciousness? They are merely like frames in a video game. Scenes in a play.

You lost me.

They are not a lesser class - they just lack the ability to escape the dream. They lack the interest in philosophy- and they lack the ability to intuit that there could be nothing independent of consciousness. Just think about it. Why would something need to even exist independent of consciousness? Can you grok that? I'll be honest- most can't. It's not a knock or to say someone is better- they just aren't wired for it. The ego is so tightly wrapped. That's why Leo had to ingest psychedelics.

Are you a butterfly dreaming you are a human, or a human dreaming you are butterfly?

Not according to you 😕

"Normies"

Classic. You're the best. Just don't over do it. But that one was good. You need to find some seriousness too.

He knew what's up. But he's just a projection of your own mind. You invented him for the coolness of being able to refer to a robed mystic.

Yes. To actually become directly conscious of this will destroy everything they have ever known. Including themselves. It's far too radical. Of course - all it takes is an open mind. An open mind is leaving a hole for the ego to be dissolved though- so it's not something the ego ultimately wants. Thus the majority of mankind will keep the walls too thick for any ideas to penetrate outside of what they were born into.
