This is just an example but it really helps me so perhaps this may help others. If the Big Bang created this universe but had occurred in a different way let's say, that would obviously lead you to make different choices right? So if you follow the breadcrumb trail of your current thoughts backwards through time, in a sense you can say that the Big Bang had absolute will or more free will than you as it pushed the dominos to influence your will right now. If your thoughts right now are just the result of this domino effect, that means your thoughts and actions simply cannot be independent of this process. Even the moment you sit down to meditate, that is a process pre-ordained by the universe billions of years ago (there is no time but let's think in terms of causality). Not having free will does not mean that each thought and action won't evolve for the better, your thoughts and actions will evolve for the better I personally gurentee this. which is why we must trust the process and trust the universe. (You)niverse. You cannot actually intervene here, if you reach your hand out and try to change something here, that too has been preordained. In a sense you have never even done anything as you are not the "doer" or the original pusher of the dominoes. Imagine a self aware movie or a virtual reality mask but without anyone actually wearing the mask! You are just left to surrender and observe while you are free-falling, even while you are reading this post. As God you have absolute will but right now you are not reading. Reading is simply happening! So trust. trust. trust. Of course the big bang is just a backstory and there is no time, however this is just an analogy that helps me. So sit in silence a little each day, trip a little, and enjoy the show! Nobody is watching it. The show itself is the body, the show itself is the self, without a self. The chair is empty. Does this make sense?

@Rafael Thundercat Excellent

@UnbornTao Of course! However to those that get stuck with nonduality, no self, and no free will, I believe my explanation is a bit refreshed, however I agree, language is never the truth...

@Inliytened1 Thanks my friend!

@Javfly33 I am only 30 and have been homeless already twice in my life, suffered in unimaginable ways, this post is violently incorrect... I used to believe what you believe currently, so I feel for you, I'll give you that

@Javfly33 When someone is depressed, the awareness of that depression cannot possibly be depressed, did you do the work?

@Hojo Yes! What you wrote is still compatible with what I said here, beautiful...

@cetus Thank you my friend, much love.

@cetus Your seal of approval really means a lot! If Leo approves this as well, it would really make my day. I am seeking validation as this little boy that I am so sue me

@Rafael Thundercat Yes I hope more people see this post! Excellent work.

@Rafael Thundercat Amen brother!

@Someone here Take it further, from my perspective I am the only one alive and you are not, we are not alive at the same time, you left a pre-recording for yourself to talk to but it is a genuine one since you are me right now over here right now. Everyone is real, as they are as real as you are over there now, just conscious at a different time linearly. Can you hear my thoughts right now? I am having thoughts now that you do not know about. However, in a sleeping dream, it does not seem like those images live out there own personal lives. Can you explain solipsism within a dream versus waking solipsism? I want your perspective on this.

@CoolDreamThanks Why not just trip deeper? Trip deeper. Trip deeper. Trip deeper. If there is something you don't like about absolute truth, why not trip deeper so that your questions will be at least answered eventually. I practically guarantee it. And if you won't...well there's your problem. There is NO error in Leo's teachings that you speak of.

@CoolDreamThanks I understand that. It seems like each life is richer than the last, this is the only life I know of, yet it happens to be the one where the universe wants to wake me up. I know there is no way to prove or disprove this, but I believe each life gets better and better forever, as there is no limit within nothingness/infinity. There is no cap to love, there is no ceiling, otherwise it would not be true infinity.

@Yimpa Good, improvement is good, the truth is good, it couldn't be better if it tried ...

@CoolDreamThanks But life on Earth IS evolving towards love...average quality of life has gone up, do you not know about plagues and inquisitions, poor sanitation and hygiene? It has to get worse before it gets better. Either way it is up to you, it is your dream afterall. My life for the past 5 years has been gradually improving thanks to Leo, I simply follow his principles about the basics of getting things in order like my psychology and beyond...

Of course I will continue on my journey of self-discovery just like everyone else here on this forum, as I have been, but does anyone else here wish Leo made for example a "Reading A Poetic Description Of God-Consciousness Part 2"? I genuinely believe there is nothing wrong with having a hardcore spiritual practice combined with a little quality entertainment here and there. I know Leo's videos about God boil down to just entertainment especially if a true practice is not implemented, but man those videos really fill me up with a certain magic I can't explain. I will be okay regardless, this is not some desperate need for more God content from Leo but a mere feeling of nostalgia that I am sharing with you. A video about some new facet of God realization would be awesome simple as that! Anyone else agree?

@OBEler Yes you said it even better, I miss that rawness, I would not mind seeing even more raw awakenings and maybe if they are too crazy for Youtube he can post them here

@Schizophonia I agree

@Someone here Exactly, I simply miss those vibes. But yeah rewatching some is a good idea I always miss a few points here and there

@mike41 If you meditate daily you will have clarity on what to do, if you feel enlightened your presence will make people ask you how you stay so calm and collected, let people come to you, its backwards, the more you meditate the more clarity you will gain and I assure you all your questions will be answered, and it will be more satisfying than anything you can find here

@Hojo Thank you

I still intuit that the characters in my dream don't have their own experiences but the person reading this does. I assume you may not be having your experience simultaneously but in some strange way you do exist, and I don't have access to what you did this morning. I intend to awaken more deeply to have all my questions answered but I am so curious as to why the mechanics of solipsism can't be communicated. This horse has been beaten to death I know but can someone at least give another go at explaining it. What aspect of solipsism is impossible to communicate? So Leo doesn't have his own bubble of awareness just like my dream characters don't have their own bubble? What's wrong with the idea that I just lived Leo's life (or will) and had or will have my own bubble, but right now, I don't have access to that, and only I exist since I can't exist simultaneously with anyone? Solipsism must be occurring a certain way, why can't this certain way be communicated? I know the answer is for me to become directly conscious of it, but someone please try to explain the weirdness of it and why language fails. That's all.

@Osaid Thank you this has been helpful

@Osaid Thank you. I guess what trips me up is when Leo says he is not having his own experience and I am imagining him. I understand imagination is efficient and doesn't need to render what I don't see, however other people must have their own bubble in some strange way. This is what I want clarified.
