There are 2 meditations, 1-pointed and 0-pointed. 1 pointed, best is breath. Be the breath 24x7 When you are good at this, drop the breath and be the one witnessing everything First takes abundant effort and the second is completely effortless In Buddhism, these are known as shamantha and vipassana

That I needn't have a one track mind Where the winds lead me is good I trust that maybe I am doing this not for me but for you

Point I make is that it matters not what time you have to get up It's out of your hands and no matter what hour, it is neither intrinsically good nor bad Your responsibility is in the time you do control

I too was bitten with the non duality bug which lasted couple of years. Now I have gone the other direction and can't give it one second of time. I am very at peace with it and can appreciate the beauty in it nowadays but i am no longer obsessed about it Nice to hear you too have outlets for enjoyment and leisure and fun

I am less and less attached to the life I built. I am more and more attuned to the joy and the beauty and perfection. I definitely don't class myself awake but I am sure I see more than most. How about yourself?

Your boss determines what time you get up. You determine what time you get to bed.

Every word uttered is a compassionate concession to any sleepy head. Speak helpfully and point deftly in order to thwart neo-advaita brainwashing.

Everyone is me. I need speak nothing except bask in the wonder that I get to rub shoulders and get audiences with God on earth every encounter. You don't even need to treat me as God. Just regard me as such in your mind. And weep with joy.

There isn't inherent meaning. There is imputed meaning. It's imputed by you. It's up to you. Am I ego or am I god? Let me think. I have a choice. If I make the right one my life is one of meaning and purpose and service thereafter. I am the savior, I am the creator, I am the redemption. How could such lofty lives be meaningless.

You may find enlightening the following book by Gary Renard The Lifetimes When Jesus and Buddha Knew Each Other : A History of Mighty Companions The Jesus of the bible is a little distorted

I am just happy one has made it and can point it out simply There is no need to follow just take their pointings and put in the work That's what paths like A Course in Miracles do Helps me greatly even though I know all paths and all mystics point to the exact same truth

It's reading the room What level of intensity, cockiness, rizz do I need to bring and what level am I permitted to get away with I need to calibrate myself between what I can at this moment bring and what at this venue is acceptable Some environments are low key, others more pressured Fit in to make out For woman will be a different answer

Good counter-example here is Jesus He underwent the last useless journey so you won't have to Being nailed to a cross and left to bleed to the bone He showed what it is to be unfazed and unflappable Forgive them since they don't know what they do I came to show you that body is nothing and suffering likewise You are not a body except when ego speaks on your behalf He doesn't want your following or fawning Just learn the lesson so you don't need to make up any more silly torture stories It is not rocket science

It's learning to be a man Men pick up and women put down

There are 2 things going on, what ego does and what god does Ego is everything your eyes show you such as a body. A pure illusion and veil over what god is doing Drop the one at hand to behold the oneness beyond

Death is the price of separation. You believe the latter and are awarded the former. You want a finite life in order to be god of your own castle What an awful trade that is Ego got you good

Only an ego wants to bargain away what you are

Have to treat every encounter as the most important and precious moment of your entire life And it is You are being granted an audience with the divine in every communication you engage in To join with every mind is to dispel all silly illusions the main half dozen being separation suffering sickness sin specialness scarcity This doesn't happen spontaneously Set the intention and push yourself to implement becoming one with existence

It has. You are resisting and fighting and putting up barriers and borders The all loving all holy God could not contaminate itself with any such madness Yet in its delight towards its magnificent offspring, it gives you free will to do so. Death suffering separation are illusion. You made all this here yourself rather than living in bliss as you were designed Seems like a long dream here but it is the blink of an eye while you take a nap and engage in escapism from heaven's joy

Yes you are correct. Both of these ways are pointed to by the above. In any case I asked AI to review the above and it came up with the following: This passage asserts that the world and others we perceive are projections of our own mind, much like the characters in a dream, and that liberation lies in investigating the nature of this sole ego to realize our true, infinite self. As a practical approach, give up knowing about the world, as all such knowing is illusion and sustains the ego. Instead, hold onto awareness of the Self; this awareness alone is true knowledge and leads to the realization of God.

Corruption is directly proportional to how developmentally unevolved you are - as measured say by spiral dynamics Corruption at low levels of development is its own lingua franca: pass me a bulging envelope and I'm your best patron who does you bidding Then at a certain level of development, survival is transcended. Namely no more ego remains.

Yes brilliant. My humble summary: Undo knowing about the world. All such such knowing is illusion. This dispenses with ego. Now maintain knowledge of awareness of self. All such knowledge is truth. This ushers in god.

Will is the same as unconditioned eternal boundless love which is the same as perpetually unimpeded expanding luminous oneness This never changes - it is god's job description if you umm will Want is what drives the universe: I prefer not to follow Absolute Will since I choose to be god of this dominion I go my own way and will survive and thrive come what may God naturally gives free will so is fine with your one rogue thought of separation and it collapses instantly as you wake up and realize nothing happened This universe is but a separation thought's elaborately weaved web easily unravelled and wholly harmless to what one is God could not create imperfection, have anything to do with it or even know it exists And that's from the horse's mouth himself

Who wants is the one who seeks to thwart what the absolute wills. Which is impossible The one who looks and says I am this makes one bad move. Which seems to last a long time No. It is corrected instantly. You are sleeping in heaven having a momentary dream of being in exile Dream just means to enter a fake finite fearful reality This is over so please don't linger longer Did you learn anything in the posted thread or just more ho-hum spirituality?

The difference is a choice. You WANT hate and misery and pain to exist. They are necessary to keep the dream alive. They are nothing to do with you just basic defence mechanisms to keep your body mind alive. Sure you are welcome to stay alive and have a wonderful life while here. But get back in touch with reality so you don't need to keep revisiting this existence defined as insanity. You are more than this. If you read the thread I posted above, you will know a living embodiment of what I am pointing to
