Empty everything you have ever learned completely... Complete 0... Start with an empty glass...

It doesn't matter if you sniff paint behind the paint store for the rest of your apparent existence or become the president of the United States, there's no difference whatsoever at all. Liberation is complete freedom from any conditioned thought structure that says otherwise. THIS is complete freedom!! Do you have eyes to see...

Your apparent thought and belief has no effect on THIS whatsoever.... can you guys understand this... like literally, what you believe or don't believe does not matter in any way at all to existence. You are not the center of the universe. No matter how much the ego wants to believe it's so. Nope not happening!! Get over it move on!! Next!!

The real Freedom lies in truly understanding that THIS is it, there's nowhere else to get, and no one to get there... there's no future fulfillment that needs take place. That's what these so-called Neo Advaitist's are pointing out. Here is some Jim Newman: The solution or the end of the seeking isn't a finding. That need to find something is never satisfied; it never happens. If it does, it's very temporary. I find something and I'm afraid of losing it; I find something and I'm trying to hold onto it; I'm trying something and I'm trying to maintain it. It's never satisfied. The end of the seeking is the end of the seeker, is the end of the experience, that 'this' is real. What's left is what's already obviously everything: THIS. This doesn't need anything else, this is already all there is. Whatever is happening—whatever feelings, thoughts, experiences are happening—that is the wholeness that is looked for. It's not the wholeness the individual's looking for. It's not the wholeness that the "I am" is looking for. It will always be dissatisfied with this. It's a wholeness that's beyond the personal seeking, beyond the personal need for something more or something else.

Mine was to see a T-Rex mating with a stegosaurus... Apparently that's not going to happen anytime soon.

3 years ago I would have said there batshit crazy... Post Awakening they're the only ones that make any sense... ? Interesting fact: Robert Wolfe told me over the phone that Tony Parsons is a great teacher... Just sayin ?

Jesus said to them, "When you make the two into one, and when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and when you make male and female into a single one, so that the male will not be male nor the female be female, when you make eyes in place of an eye, a hand in place of a hand, a foot in place of a foot, an image in place of an image, then you will enter [the (Father's) domain]." Jesus said, "Have you found the beginning, then, that you are looking for the end? You see, the end will be where the beginning is. Congratulations to the one who stands at the beginning: that one will know the end and will not taste death." - Gospel of Thomas

Thx 4 sharing ❤ ?

Really good enquiry ❤ Have 'you' recognized the difference between intellectually understanding there is no self and actually seeing for 'yourself' that its an illusion? This can become a detachment trap for some is why I mention it. Because what's recognized is there wasn't anything real to detach from in the first place. It was simply a misidentification. Sounds like you may have already seen and recognized it isn't real...gd 4 u ?

Like this ?

It's unknowable because the questionnaire turns out to be unreal!!

The collapsing of the illusion of self... So Enlightenment is a non happening...

@mandyjw ❤ yes he's sincerely authentic.

Yep its not personal

@Someone here ❤ everything you said sounds reasonable... it will settle down. I had a good feeling about you even though your forum name is Someone here ? ?

Like ?

Yep the seriousness goes bye-bye and meaning purpose and value are recognized as mere ridiculous concepts. ?

Exactly it doesn't matter in any way at all...❤

I understand what you're saying ❤ I use ego and sense of 'self' interchangeably. The ego is nothing more than a bundle of past knowledge labels thoughts perceptions beliefs and ideas identified with as the separate sense of 'ME' within the body. There's no need to attempt to shrink it or kill it... rather see it for what it is. Yes the sun is always shining bright even if there appears to be stormy thought clouds in front of it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with believing you are Pure Awareness, the absolute Consciousness... it is whole complete and perfect and is what is being experienced there. ❤

@Dodo That's wonderful if 'you' believe/notice it's true... Just recognize that noticing does not matter in any way at all.. it has absolutely no effect on existence. You could believe it's a fart cloud created by aliens to keep us interested in something... and that belief still wouldn't matter to existence in any way at all... Can you see the limitations of identifying with thought. Whether something is true or not has no outcome and in that sense doesn't matter. The trees do not grow taller the grass does not grow greener the birds do not fly higher. There's no special secret knowledge out there to be attained... that's the dream. ❤

Freedom is the closest word.

Enlightenment is the case when the individual trying to experience it dies. Doesn't that sound swell ?

Nice inquiry ? Yes and if the one that is apparently aware of awareness turns out to be a thought, where does that leave us?
