VeganAwake

All your thoughts,choices and actions stem from past conditioning... The way you were taught by society to interact, think and make choices has all been programmed into your mind by societal conditioning.

Recognizing this 'YOU' character only exists in conditioned thought.

The word truth assumes that there is something false. There's nothing true or false because there is no real point or purpose to anything. Only conditioned thoughts label true or false right or wrong good or bad. Nobody knows this!! ❤

Yeah man it's every experience... it's THIS experience! You are trying to find it somewhere else because you believe THIS isn't it! ❤

Here is one of my favorites Robert Wolfe, who seems more of a neutral figure but interestingly enough told me on the phone that Tony Parsons is a great teacher. Any teaching that cuts directly through the illusion is key. ?

? ❤ nailed it... Another way to say it is, reality seems to get skewed by self centered perception. The sense of self or ego places an overlay on top of reality and functions from that perception. (What's in it for me) Ego lives in a world of duality...right vs wrong; good vs bad; subject vs object. You said : " we all have an ego" Who is WE? Is WE something other than the ego? Is there really a ME and a MY ego or are they one in the same? ❤

@Kel Varnsen Who is this character that wants to know? What makes up this 'YOU' character? What does 'YOU' consist of? Where is 'YOU' located? ❤

Yes it's not somewhere else the names are also this!

That's what's being experienced there it's whole complete and perfect ❤

It seems to be hidden by being everything. The cosmic joke or Open Secret ❤ ?

Words are also it, and It's not foolish to try, that's just another mind story. Nobody experiences Awakening. And being infinite love; State change to self realization and the Consciousness game are all just more mind stories.❤

@Moksha Awakening is 0 you don't become this or that trust ❤

But what if this statement was recognized as just a figment of imagination, just another mind story "eventually awaken spiritually to the God that you are"

Yes, there was an apparent situation. But there was never a ME involved. It only seemed so. Notice Liberation isn't a denial of feelings and emotions.... All feelings and emotions arise there just isn't a real owner of them ❤

This is a perfect example of uneasiness/suffering due to self centered focus. It may seem subtle but she's essentially focused on an apparent cultural normality of good vs bad situations that seem to occur. The question is can illusory self-identification be seen through? As in not happening to me but just apparent happening in general.

Yes the body will surely die. The sense of self experienced within that body is an illusion. So it does not die, because it was never real from the start.... death is already the case ❤

There's nothing that should or should not be talked about, it's all the same.... that's the freedom ❤

Psychedelics seem to shake up the mind's typical way of thinking and perceiving. But placing meaning purpose and value on these experiences are just the mind's way of making sense out of everything and always for survival purposes. ❤

It doesn't seem like Connor completely and or clearly enough saw through the tricks of the Mind like Frank appears to have. As if he doesn't understand the nothingness that's prior to the minds understanding. But it doesn't matter ❤

But Enlightenment is the recognition that the individual that was striving for a better position in life to become enlightened or attain an LOC of 1000 was an illusion, and that illusory experience of not feeling complete is the very thing that seems to hide the completeness/freedom/liberation that is longed-for and yet already the case. ❤ That's why this recognition is often referred to as the cosmic joke or the Open Secret.... it's so obvious that it's simply overlooked.

It's definitely some interesting material and you can tell they spent some time putting it together. But how can there be a scale placed on something constantly changing. For example would somebody that created a sustainable living environment on Mars have a higher LOC than a Tibetan monk meditating his or her whole life in the mountains. The rating scale is imaginary. I guess you could say it's perspectival at best. Like what about Willy Wonka he figured out how to make ice cream that doesn't melt... he must have a goddamn IQ of 160. Forrest Gump seemed quite at peace with everything...❤

You will not find mental health therapy here. Please look and reach out to your local mental health provider or therapist. You guys are expecting way too much! Please look elsewhere ❤

I like him reminds me of Pauly Shore ?

In this story the snow represents the accumulation of societal conditioning, knowledge and experience. Think of the sense of self/ego/me like a snowball. It starts off almost non-existent, but as it rolls down the mountain of life it collects layer upon layer of snow, getting bigger and bigger. It becomes an entity unto itself. It says 'I am here' and everything else is out there. It becomes a complex snowball full of concepts, preferences, dogmas and beliefs. Now imagine the snowball gets curious one day about what it's made out of and looks into a mirror, but all it sees is snow. For the First Time The Snowball recognizes it was never separate from the rest of the snow, it was just a misunderstanding all along. The sun light reflecting off the mirror begins to loosen up the layers of snow and they begin to fall back into the side of the snowy mountain of life. So although the snowball seemed to be a separate entity, it was just a misidentification with accumulated societal conditioning, experience and knowledge. The snowball/sense of self/ego/me was never real to begin with, it just seemed to be like a mirage in the desert. After the Mirage/duality is seen through there's no need to keep talking about it, as if it was once real, the snowball/ego/me/sense of self was clearly seen to have never been real from the start. "The separation never occurred" - A Course in Miracles ❤

@James123 ❤ yes these are gems absolutely and he sums it up nicely at the end of the very first video. Psychologist: So it all comes down to security, but can the individual find that security. Krishnamurti: No, the individual can never find that security.
