That is a way of looking at it! Never seen it that way tho. Since love is the most powerful thing there is, it would make sense that GOD is like that ?

I did not say that. I said that it is a bit odd if this nothingness can imagine conciousness/awareness and is not concious/aware itself, how does that work? Is it really possibly to imagine awareness? Try to think of awareness or imagine it. should be no easy task ?‍♂️

Yeah that would be cool actually!

Bernardo Kastrup is really important in this day an age, we on this forum is predominatly conciousness only model so it is not radical news for us but it is much important for society at large! Sooner or later non dualism will be the paradigm of society

"Reality is infinite nothingness capable of imagining conciousness" How can this Nothingness use imagination if it is not aware? Imagination presupposes an awareness first, can we really ever get behind conciousness? Really see it through, conciousness is existence without it there is literally non existence. Not even nothingness. The notion of imagination and nothingness can only arise if awareness is prior to it. How else could anything be? You cant reach outside of awareness and tell that it is nothingness outside of it and also say that it imagines awareness. Then something was present to observe that thing.

Here we go again with the materialist ?

Nice video!

It goes both ways and men often say that women have it easier and sometimes women say the same thing. Ofcourse looks is important but how you act is the biggest thing, ofcourse if someone is " very ugly" tbh feels bad to use the word but, it is much harder to get a shot to show your manners and attitude and confidence, tho ive seen many ugly guys with good looking Girls and likewise good looking guys with less pretty Girls so it is really not a thing carved in stone. But nowadays it is oftenly guys you hear about being extremely shallow and just wanting to get laid using some less "attractive" methods in trying to get laid, but ime alot of Girls is the same way. It is highly individual

What if there is no why to why reality is this way, I know that it is not satisfying for the philosophical mind but I do feel that there is no special reason to why it is how it is, just a spontaneous happening which conciousness identifies with and it plays out, but if you look back into childhood and upwards you may notice that reality has been changing all along and all appearences has changed but still it is the same "conciousness " which has remained unmoved even if experiences changes and appearences too. Something has remained the same but at the same time everything has changed

Haha indeed ??

@kwar Mind controls and influences the brain which in order produces chemicals sent out into the body and that is exactly how the placebo effect is working, mind is not a seperate thing from Truth Psychedelics changes the mind and brain and makes the mind more open and fluid. Psychedelics is really profound and if you have not tried them i would recommend trying it. Psychedelics is inclusive in nature and it is there they come from. Also do meditation every day and loosen the thought attachment and just be i would say is a good way to start. Cheers brother good luck!

Good question but it clearly shows that our ego and the belief in an objective static world outside of us produces non lucid forms, but you can become lucid in the waking state and truly see the emptiness of form and that it has no underlying reality. Ego loves "permanent " things and non lucid forms. But ofcourse change is always happening and form is hollow and luminous like a hologram. Ask yourself multiple times a day : is this a dream? Really feel into it and watch perception change after a while doing this.

Oh sorry about that then I must have misunderstod you ? Cheers

Still stuck in the evidence paradigm. How can you proof it when it is prior to a you wanting a proof? Just be and investigate awareness, psychedelics helps ALOT with this. Evidence is a thought. What makes the thought "evidence" possible?

https://youtu.be/ibT0uUKX_Qs Such a good video from adyashanti which practically explains enlightenment and awakening. Really really good pointers!

Happy womans day!! You are all incredible beings!?❤?

@James123 Yes just Being. There is only conciousness as there is not two substances here??

@James123 James brother you are playing word games and using thoughts as much as the next guy and using concepts which is unavoidable. But total unconciousness/non existence points to exactly that, non existence. Is it possible to experience it? No it will just be a leap exactly like when you sleep , the moment you fall asleep is the moment you wake up. What does that tell you about the nature of things? Of awareness? Prior to birth is also a concept which you have no experience of and is a fantasy in the now. What is there prior to dreaming when I go to sleep tonight? There is no before birth because birth didnt happen. Where were the dream character prior to you sleeping? You are being and being is everything and iam litteraly YOU. Life is a dream So how can we say that it will be like prior to birth? That is a fantasy you are creating in your mind now and is a thought too. Being without thought and identification is nothing but is perfectly aware but we can use the word being instead of awareness, we can call it source or god or nothing. Awareness is exactly nothing. It is being. and ofcourse im wrong and this is only thoughts and does not say anything about what we point to.

@GreenWoods +1 Great post ?

Zup brother nice to see its going well! Do you feel lonely after a realization like this or are you perfectly comfortable with knowing that you project everything?

What is this human? Notice that it is a thought? What is an entity? What is an fact? How can an entity in a human become aware? Is it not a thought which awareness is aware of? Human and an entity is a thought awareness is aware of Where have a human existed prior to awareness aware of a thought labeled human? Is perception seperated from awareness? If so where does the seperation arise? Is a human not a perception and a thought same as a chair?

How can something be higher or lower? If all is awareness appearing as anything. Not two, not nothingness and an object called "infinite love". Love nothingness god emptiness fullness points to the same thing.

This presupposes that there is an "I" which is aware, awareness is aware no matter the content, awareness is aware of day dreaming , thoughts, etc , look at experience. Is it anytime when awareness is not aware?

@Nahm Just wow such an awesome reply!?
