ego says all of this well and convincingly and pretty much all buy it ego however is the creator of the illusion of a separate universe it wants to hang out here as long as possible and be monarch supreme and why ever not! ego did one thing, it claimed separation, bam, all of this resulted once it disavows the lunacy of separation god is back in town no hurry of course, enjoy all the engaging toil and chasing tail

yea one always thinks that way, i say the number of breaths allocated is set in stone so don't be god through heroic breathing rather instead by breathing who you are

breath is the vibration of the absolute that you as a body mind rides breath control is impossible ... we try to tweak it but better to watch it and see that is does its own thing to consciously ride along with breath, become one with it, is the best we can do, and is a lofty spiritual practice breath is the gateway to beyond

story is all you stored ... wake up each day with a clean slate there's one sin only s.i.n = separation imagined now drop even that

you mind wants to see fear, it's its food it's also your teacher that you choose differently

god knows not what anger is ... would you be angry at your hand, your heart, your blood? god has never known anger for even a second

yes we need such an outlet, the world is much the better for it ... else the anger messes with you for life

in maths we say learn that one book and learn it well this elevates you to master then you are ready to speak for the first time chess by the way is finite imprudent trivial

mind is moment making machine, stringing together moment after moment time is how fast the mind sees with a better mind your life could speed up to one day god enjoys the slow boat and why not if you've created all the time in the world

yes it's good to let rip to really give anger the space it requires ... i have a punch-bag i use that gets to see every swear word in the book very cathartic

such questions and conversations are best had with chat-gpt when it confuses you then ask something here here is the last port of call not the first

it's the most beguiling mistress ever! you're with her for hours which feels like a minute, and you're like do i really need to sleep today? once she gets her fangs into you, you are putty for life

what maths brings to the table: precision, elegance, intelligence, scalability, universality, proof, abstraction, logic, symmetry, axioms, joy, computation, topology, paradox, optimization, impartiality, incompleteness (Gödel), applicability source: one who pored over its tricks for a quarter century

everything you see right now through your eyes is god which if you notice includes yourself if you really know this, this is knowledge were you to actually live this, that is love so how to love right now? treat whoever's in front of you real good here's a nice pointer and a cool song to boot: if you can't love the one you love, love the one you're with 🎵

yes ... both a course in miracles and the disappearance of reality, suggest some 3rd-millennium ways forward

i say that solipsism is 90% of the spiritual work get yourself alone and get convinced that you're the only who can help you then you might wake up ... else you won't so solipsism is step one in this journey and one most are unwilling to even entertain after you wake up then you can start dealing with more than just subjectivity

mysticism doesn't need religion, religion needs mysticism so the mystic knows he risks all if he dares venture to the pulpit

when you awaken you quit every morsel of religion in righteous disgust ... you are heretical when enlightened you embrace every corridor of religion with unbridled passion ... you are enchanted because for the first time you know what the word actually means and you know that god's kids are there waiting for you and all the treasures and miracles and kingdoms

au contraire ... notice that he quotes after each piece of secular content ... he is keeping it balanced and showing what's important ... a foot in both worlds, in the world but not of the world

ab-sol says you are the only dreamer the highest mystical traditions seem to state otherwise which is why they emphasize agape and bodichitta and compassion to all everyone is god dreaming their own infinity of dreams problem is there is no way to know for sure and so talking detracts from that which is useful

person won't change until the pain of not changing is greater than the pain of changing give up this storm ravaged person and develop some purpose daily purpose, yearly purpose, life purpose write them down i define purpose as the things i do in life where nobody or nothing stops me

solipsism should be banned from this sub ... we have same discussion here every 20 days ... it is philosophy not spirituality pure mental masturbation namely ream upon reams of crazed text no one defining their terms even simple things like what is i or what is me everyone doggedly trying to justify their smarts stop getting sucked in to such drivel and madness and please go to the philosophy section i know this sub has been going through a dry patch but you just tie yourself in knots with this rubbish philosophy is how much can i write and say nothing spirituality is how little can i write and say something facts

you've never been a thinker, awareness has first dibs on any experience and can decide to shelve mind any time it pleases, this is known as silence silencing the mind completely brings non duality since the you is now just part of the crowd that you always are

solving problems is nothing but insufferable whack a mole ... the game never ends when i find myself in times of trouble, mother mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom let it be

you can't improve anything pray humbly and pledge solemnly that instead from this moment you won't worsen anything that's what everyone is doing wrong - interference, arrogance, projection everything is good ... in fact everything is me ... stop tinkering with and trembling over the end product that is the world at large and address the place it came from you whenever you do you right thereafter you do no wrong
