  1. when i communicate i fully realize there is only me in the dream so i am doing so for one primary reason namely articulating my ideas to cement them into my own consciousness as it were and for one secondary reason namely that of love i seriously want love to flow my way in existence and there is only one way to ensure that happens by sharing my unique beautiful precious insights with the listener at large for example at forums i happen to frequent i am a person of love and i share all i have or i am a person of fear and i better wait til i am a more perfect incarnation
  2. i think this channel is real good https://www.youtube.com/c/TAKEADEEPBREATH/videos
  3. you are god who is currently drunk and infatuated by the lures of the world which reminds me of a bumper sticker ... avoid hangovers stay drunk you dont want any hangover, do you, so that is why you refuse to deconstruct thus it seems we'd rather the buzz and the thrill and the escape of being folks drunk at the party drink up, it is not closing time yet
  4. what he is saying is that you are taking pleasure out of being a person who is stuck in life you identify as being this type of person, you take pride in being someone who is having to struggle and strive and strain this is known as ego, a story you are telling yourself about who you are ego maintains this story so it can stay alive and not face up to the fact that what it is saying is lies pretty much everyone you meet loves being an ego yourself included, it gives a huge payoff, it makes us feel like someone interesting, colorful and special but this is not who you are as self inquiry can reveal
  5. a few words from david hawkins on this matter
  6. my understanding is thus, ego is not imaginary, in as much as it is what creates a darn fine movie that can be very much enjoyed (or endured depending on your view) ego is what brought every human body mind who has ever lived to this relatively real planet earth, body is the space ship if you will you opted to dream up being resident in the ego in the movie as nothing at the center of ego's being from which you are projecting the whole thing that is being witnessed if and when you choose to you will do self inquiry and deconstruct ego, if not you will continue to enjoy the movie don't forget to make some time for popcorn no matter which route you choose even if you become god realized the movie will still go on as long as there is a body mind on the scene, it just won't be your body mind any longer you are then enjoying being the entire movie and will continue to do so as long as you please your name is g.o.d ... generator of dreams or gradually oneself deconstructed if you prefer
  7. a few pointers to the moon for reflection not dogmatism: religion is living to die spirituality is dying to live religion is righting the wrongs, spirituality is writing the songs worship is religion, wonder is spirituality religion is let's do god together, spirituality is i am god alone religion, my obligation to you spirituality, my expectation of me religion is us vs them spirituality is us is them
  8. don't talk spirituality to the worldly unless asked... stop casting your pearls before swine ... you are messing with people's heads ... it is not helpful only harmful learn how to love people instead, which means find out where they are at in their life ... love means to listen and to give and to expect nothing in return if one day they bring up the spiritual then you can share an insight perhaps tell them something of your direct experience with it, what works for you
  9. brilliant stuff both your answers in this thread x

  11. god the infinity localizes itself to a finite self to experience the universe can infinity map to the finite? yes ... proof: take your infinite number if it is positive assign it the value 1, if it is negative assign it the value -1 i mapped infinity to the finite set 1,-1 god knows what it is doing
  12. namely if i am not the doer then god has an extremely flexible paintbrush to work with wow never thought of it like this before, how this loop closes on itself ... sending you love frank namaste x
  13. it is called evolution ... for millenia upon millenia the human being was concerned with one thing survival era two was the age of thrival era three is arrival ... evolution needs to ready one for god consciousness
  14. and likewise the collapse of non duality with no knower, all is one and one is all all know is all now "That alone is true Knowledge which is neither knowledge nor ignorance. What is known is not true Knowledge. Since the Self shines with nothing else to know or to make known, It alone is Knowledge. It is not a void. The Self, which is Knowledge, is the only Reality. Knowledge of multiplicity is false knowledge. This false knowledge, which is really ignorance, cannot exist apart from the Self, which is knowledge-Reality. The variety of gold ornaments is unreal, since none of them can exist without the gold of which they are all made." -- Ramana
  15. there is only one question ... is leo me or am i leo
  16. who am i is the ultimate unanswerable question ... no matter how you try, no answer will be correct ... inquiry is a device to stop mind in its tracks if you think it, then it is not you in which case after a long time trying you stop thinking, and ta da, that's you
  17. On diving deep upon the quest "Who am I and from whence?", thoughts disappear and consciousness of Self then flashes forth as the "I-I" within the cavity of every seeker's Heart. RM
  18. thanks for the hacks and post doing same thing for 2 years and will never change, rise 4am yoga cold shower breakfast 120-mins meditation ... by 7 am supercharged to start my day
  19. 5. What is the authority for saying that the entire moving and unmoving worlds depend upon one's Self? The Self means the embodied being. It is only after the energy, which was latent in the state of deep sleep, emerges with the idea of "I" that all objects are experienced. The Self is present in all perceptions as the Perceiver. There are no objects to be seen when the "I" is absent. For all these reasons it may undoubtedly be said that everything comes out of the Self and goes back to the Self. 6. As the bodies and the selves animating them are everywhere actually observed to be innumerable how can it be said that the Self is only one? If the idea "I am the body" is accepted, the selves are multiple. The state in which this idea vanishes is the Self since in that state there are no other objects. It is for this reason that the Self is regarded as one only. 7. What is the authority for saying that Reality can be apprehended by the mind and at the same time that it cannot be apprehended by the mind? It cannot be apprehended by the impure mind but can be apprehended by the pure mind. 8. What is pure mind and what is impure mind? When the indefinable power of Reality separates itself from Reality and, in union with the reflection of consciousness assumes various forms, it is called the impure mind. When it becomes free from the reflection of consciousness, through discrimination, it is called the pure mind. Its state of union with the Reality is its apprehension of Reality. The energy which is accompanied by the reflection of consciousness is called the impure mind and its state of separation from Reality is its non-apprehension of Reality. 9. Is it possible to overcome, even while the body exists, the karma [prarabdha] which is said to last till the end of the body? Yes. If the agent [doer] upon whom the karma depends, namely the ego, which has come into existence between the body and the Self, merges in its Source and loses its form, will the karma which depends upon it alone survive? Therefore when there is no "I" there is no karma. https://www.inner-quest.org/Ramana_Instruction.htm
  20. good that you are seeing how negative the mind is, this is the first sign of an awakening key thing to realize is mind and body is nothing to do with you, you just hitched a ride with them mind body has come to do certain preset unchangable tasks according to karma this is nothing to do with you whenever there is a thought, you should say to yourself to whom does this thought come it is to the thinker but i am not the thinker, i am the whole, the reality, the Self you just accompany the thinker on its journey, you are the awareness of it, the enjoyer of the movie it is completing keep doing this and you can transcend mind, this is known as ramana maharshi's self enquiry
