    @VeganAwake God = Reality.                 ( for me.)

    It sounded like God = Suffering and Misery for you. 

    The attachment or belief that something needs to be a certain way is what can cause suffering.

    You are correct life doesn't care what you want... do you want to go with the current or against it.

    I assure you life doesn't care either way.

    What's really trippy is to recognize that even against the current, is still going with the current.

    You simply can't be outside of what's happening might as well accept it or not hehe...?

    If I could talk to God I would ask him why there is so much suffering, misery and pain?                                                                                                                                              I don't understand why there has to be so much fn suffering and it bothers me. 

    Fear, mental illness, corruption, beheadings etc.   I can suffer tomorrow just because someone harms me. I can be born in an abusive home. Maybe I'm so unlucky that my country is at war.                        It's very difficult for me to accept all the misery and brutality that comes with life.              On the other hand I see the beauty and intelligence behind life.        My problem is that life will never go as I want it to be. Life doesn't care what I want. I'm forced to accept all the BS that I don't like.           I have no say in the matter. I'm like a river with no choices but simply to flow. Wish I had more control. What kind of God am i ???                                                                                                             

    The belief that there's an entity called God behind all of this...hmmm interesting ?


  3. I know this isn't anything new but I wanted to share anyways.

    I was laying on my couch feeling so free, so light, so wonderful, so at peace...I questioned where did this feeling come from or what caused it.

    Then the word EMPTY popped into my mind....I felt Empty. But not the bad or lacking Empty that most would typically associate Empty with. This is like an Empty Fullness, a Pregnant Nothingness, an Everything and Nothing Emptiness.

    It's not having any belief systems, attachments or idea's of the way anything should be.... it's the Wayless Way...or No Way.

    I realized, I don't believe in anything except BEING.

    And anything and everything is welcomed in BEING.

    I would describe it as in natural surrender to what being reveals. ❤

    An evolved great ape ancestor is still God :)?  and so is the big bang.

    Break outa the materialist paradigm my brother! 

    I know what you're saying...

    To me God is boundless Infinite Energy with no Rhyme or Reason no meaning or purpose whatsoever just pure free Boundless Energy form and formlessness everything and nothing real and unreal.

    Humans aren't conscious, humans (and rocks and worms) are appearances in consciousness.

    There are no actual humans or rocks or worms or anything else, only appearances in consciousness.

     

    There is no "absolute relativity". The whole delusion from the beginning was to erroneously hold the relative as absolute.

    Nor does the sum total of all relativity add up to the absolute. You cannot add up what cannot exist, and you can't reach infinity in increments.

     

    Relativity is strictly illusion, smoke and mirrors. Void is absolute, infinite, changeless, timeless, formless, etc. in other words nondual.

    Void is the mirror. Void is the only reality, appearance is nothing but smoke and mirrors.

     

    We are such stuff as dreams are made on. And Leo is deluded for reifying appearance itself. ;)

    Would you be willing to stab yourself in the hand right now with a knife... I wonder if it would still seem like smoke and mirrors?

    @VeganAwake When you really think about it, it's ludicrous to think we are a time-bound thought-based self. This would include ideas, labels, beliefs, and our self-image derived from the past. The reason being because no moment exists outside the now. How could a thought from the past be me or a part of me?

    Yes absolutely you're onto something now... keep exploring this, maybe something will happen maybe not... either way you're always perfect whole and complete and that's always been the case ?

    In order to remove personalization, I guess I need to be clear what I think is the "I."  This enlightenment exercise tells me it can't be a point-perceiver.

    Well the 'I' is the illusion...

    And the 'I' that thinks it needs to get clear about what the 'I' is, is that same illusion.

    Recognize the 'I' is just a compilation of beliefs perceptions ideas thoughts and labels you have allowed yourself to believe since a young age.

    When this becomes recognized there can be an energetic shift and the 'I' can fall away and its energy seems to fall back into the infinite energy source.

     


  8. There is a conditioned human body that will turn its head if it's name is called or jump out of the way of a train to survive. It's basically running on conditioned autopilot.

    The 'I' illusion comes in after the fact and claims that it's doing it, and that its the human body itself.

    But it's not just the human body, it's the most important human body that ever existed. It's all about me me me I I I. 

    And then of course this 'I' energy feels separate and lacking and goes on a quest to find completion of itself or Liberation from the constant feelings of lack.

    The problem is the separation never occurred and it's all just an Illusion of separation... so the 'I' energy is seeking something that it will never find because it was never separate to begin with.

    The Big Cosmic joke...(hey everyone let's go on an exciting never-ending quest to find something that was never missing yay)

    When Maya the illusion of self is completely seen through it's almost laughable and I've heard some people do laugh for quite a while. ?

     

     

     


  9. Yes exactly you got it.... here's a quick video by one of my favorite plant-based doctors describing it.

    That's cool you're reading how not to die it's a great book...

    If you haven't already ...I also recommend "The healthiest diet on the planet" by Dr. John McDougall

    The China Study by Dr. T Colin Campbell

    The cheese Trap by Dr.Neal Bernard

    Also if you get a chance to check out the movie 'Food Choices' it used to be on Netflix but I believe they removed it. ?

    Take care my friend good stuff!
