Someone here

I think it means the same thing . These Sufi sages call it also being "drunk " (metaphorically speaking ) in the beloved. Its the same thing . The devi (ego) submits to god whether willingly or forced to. BTW I'm very fascinated by Islam and the Qur’an. I think this spiritual tradition is so underrated. Unfortunately rarely do people here talk about it . Thanks man . You are a polite person .

There is a threshold of woke territory ..when you become fully conscious that you are absolutely alone in existence. There is no people who are awake or not . Only you..either aware of what I said or not . And time is a persistent illusion as per Einstein motto.

Just like how you know you are dreaming while you are a dreaming in a lucid dream.

Something to contemplate.

@Osaid fair enough. Im not mentally masturbating. Im using intellectual contemplating to arrive at trutth because i have no other method..no psychedelics no nothing btw .. I think being willing to ask stupid questions with a childlike curiosity is what leads you to some of the most satisfying unexpected answers. And ultimately to enlightenment. Which reveals you have no clue what enlightenment is . Because in all spiritual literature in the entire fucking history of mankind it is said that enlightenment is the dissolving of the "I" which claims to be enlightened. Its also up to you to answer this question or not : WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?

What should I ask you ?

Have you experienced that ?

"the unlimited cannot be understood since understanding is something that occurs within it. awakening is becoming limitless, and the need to know or understand is greed that grabs and creates limits. This is what creates psychosis and problems. the total break does not create problems, it is perfect". @Breakingthewall

You are so fooling yourself. Stop dancing around with these poetic descriptions of what reality is . If you think God doesn't exist you are clearly stuck on a very shallow dead end with this new age spiritual hippy bs. Yeah you can sit on armchair and spout your atheistic philosophy when you are happy and healthy ..but just wait for the dark night of the soul.. The inevitable suffering that you MUST face at some point in your life . Hell..even something as trivial and silly as diarrhea can make pray for all the gods in existence. Humble yourself. God Is watching your nonsensical denials of him .

Because there is God's creation and it is under its control and not a single atom moves against its will.

I didn't say God created itself. Think about this ..when you dream at night..aren't you simultaneously the creator of the dream AND the whole dream ?

First of all ...If you are fully aware of this present moment you will know it's impossible that God doesn't exist. because God is not separated from creation.. God's fingerprints are present in every moment of creation. If you can see it you can see him. But you cant see him directly without dying ..yes because God is infinite.. There is no place for both YOU and HIM to be .. He takes all the place.. If he is to be present.. "You" have to leave first. Defining God is impossible because God is infinite .so it includes all the definitions I could come up with for eternity. It's THAT level of bizarre and absurd.

😎 cool

Love ya too . But you didn't answer the question.

@James123 and do you know who you are ? Please answer with complete honesty and after deep reflection..because from reading your posts ..your understanding seems a little bit limited and shallow 🙂

Why not a new life ? Of course. Not only the cause . But the laws of physics which govern the universe. Its called fine tuning by cosmolgists. Its literally impossible that God doesn't exist . God is eternal. It always existed .

So the universe just popped out of nowhere for no why by no how? Reality is just limitless soup of hodgebodge of stuff happening ? That's some high quality type of BS. Sorry sell me something else.

my friend..God is not Santa Claus.. it's not a bearded old man living in the sky who will fuck you in the ass and burn you in hell fire because you like to "touch yourself " before bed ...although that's what most people think that God is . God is the creator of this universe...and also the universe itself. Just like how you are the creator of your nightly dreams while simultaneously being one with the dream. He loves our missery..suffering. ignorance. He makes no excuse. He is not just some dumb impersonal consciousness floating around selflessly. He is a conscious entity . He is you . Look deep inside yourself. Who are you ? Find out.

@Breakingthewall Getting triggered I see? You are literally 24/7 posting here and you still don't understand what God is .

@Breakingthewall you are saying "sure " then repeating the same nonsense.

@James123 after death you return to the source from which you came from aka God. And from there ..anything is possible. New life..complete void ..etc

Nonsense. God EXISTS! And "he" is a sentient conscious being . He is YOU.

Do you talk to yourself out loud when no one is looking? Do you sing In the bathroom while taking a shower? Do you enjoy picking your nose ? Do you eat dessert before the main dish ? I do all that. And much more. I'm a professional in weirdness . Share your own stupid stuff you do.

This second video is from a guy who is a member in this forum and he is also active on spirituality-related topics on Quora. So the point that these people are making is that in solipsism the claim is that all that exists in reality is me . Or ..the content of my consciousness right now and nothing else . All "others " are mere NPC ..yada yada ..I think most of you guys are familiar with solipsism as it is probably the single most discussed topic on this forum . Their point is that nonduality/Advaita makes an even more radical claim ..that the "me " which is said to be the only thing that exists in the solipsistic worldview ..that that me is ALSO illusory . So not only others don't exist . But you yourself don't exist either . There is simply nobody home in the entire universe . Now ..this leads us to what is called " metaphysical Nihilism "..which simply states that In fact ..nothing exists at all in reality ..no self..no other ..no world ..no universe etc . And this also known as Ajata in Buddhism which is the idea that reality is absolutely empty and devoid of any real substance..or simply put it doesn't exist. And this is how you actually do the work that Leo suggests to actually deconstruct all of reality...it takes three steps: 1- metaphysical solipsism (only me exist.others don't ). 2-Advaita (even I don't exist ). 3Ajata (nothing at all actually exist ).
