"God, all this time you were pretending to be me conscious of you? Wow!"

This is actually the only fear that is ever experienced. It's a defense mechanism of the apparent I-program keeping itself alive. It's a story and only apparent, but when it senses its own lack of substance it generates fear in order to survive: keep things and itself seeming real and separate from each other, maintaining dualism/awareness.

There's no time in the first place to waste If there were literally no change at all when this is recognized, then I wouldn't be posting. It's paradoxical though because nothing changes yet everything changes. Just pointing out that what you're looking for is also what you're afraid of: THIS.

In the end because I'm not talking to anyone, as there isn't anyone. i.e. you aren't even actually doing any of what was posted. See, that's the conundrum -- this literally cannot be spoken. And it refers to the you that you think you are. Not the you that you actually are. So it's speaking directly to who you think you are, which doesn't exist. It could have spoken directly to the you that you actually are, but of course not only did it not... but even the "real you" has no fixed definable reality.

Read these two songs (or listen) in the "context" of nonduality. It's pretty much guaranteed (though who would know?) that it's not the intended context, but it works perfectly as songs from me (I) to what is (or even the human-being, or God), longing after what is (you; he) and union (we) with what is. "My Happy Ending" -- Avril Lavigne So much for my happy ending Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Let's talk this over It's not like we're dead Was it something I did? Was it something you said?

"Moving On" -- Asking Alexandria A boy of anguish, now he's a man of soul Traded in his misery for the lonely life of the road The years were cruel to him No, he won't let them go Lays awake tryna' find the man inside to pack his bags and escape this world I've never been so torn up in all of my life I should have seen this coming I've never felt so hopeless than I do tonight I don't wanna do this anymore, I'm moving on He wanted to change the world, to make it all worthwhile So he put his pen to paper and poured out everything inside His red eyes tearing up at the man that he'd became Slowly, but surely on the fast track to falling into his grave I've never been so torn up in all of my life I should have seen this coming I've never felt so hopeless than I do tonight I don't wanna do this anymore, I'm moving on I can't believe I've come so far in such short time And I'm still fighting on my own If I stop to catch my breath up I might never breathe again, so just know this: I've never been so torn up in all of my life, I can't believe I let myself break down I've never been so torn up in all of my life I should have seen this coming I've never felt so hopeless than I do tonight I don't wanna do this anymore I've never been so torn up in all of my life I should have seen this coming I've never felt so hopeless than I do tonight No, I don't wanna do this anymore, I'm moving on A boy of anguish now, he's a man of soul Traded in his misery for the lonely life of the road

@Jannes Just another pointer: The I couldn’t give a fuck about well-being or peace or anything at all except one thing — it only cares about being real. No matter what it tells itself, that’s actually all it cares about, and indeed all it does is whatever it needs to do to stay apparently real.

I am relatively certain that the original intent of this post (or at least the posted image) was laughter

Well at least it was was amusing to you. In the end there are no things to matter and no one for things to matter to. There is only love. Ending this conversation before you have an aneurism -- jk but seriously this isn't going anywhere.

I don't think nothing matters. It's just that things mattering doesn't matter. I have absolutely no wisdom. I lost all of it, and I tried very hard to hold onto it. I never wanted this, and yet it's totally everything that was wanted. Appreciate your response. Fuck off (joking!)

Yes of course it matters. But things mattering, doesn't matter. Calm down brother.

See when I was rude in such a way you accused of being a wounded child longing for a mothers love. That's perfectly natural. Saying fuck off is perfectly natural. It is an absolute freedom to tell someone to fuck off while loving them at the same time. Though of course it's not exactly that I love you. There is no different between this and that so I love you by default. Not for who you are, which is seemingly a bit of a prick to my particular character. It's unconditional love all the same.

It apparently happened. I never reached it. There was never anyone who could. Can't stress that enough. The knowing of enlightenment is the absolute unknowing of everything. If that sounds special, it's a total illusion. It's a total loss but also a freedom. It's the end of all of your hopes and dreams, yet the dreams remain. Essentially, there is no enlightenment, because enlightenment is all there is already. So you never reach it.

I'm telling on you. You said the F word!

The story of evolution seems to show that biology works perfectly imperfectly.

The question doesn't arise unless there's an apparent owner of the body that dies. Nobody owns the body that dies.

It's referred to as removing a thorn with another thorn. But surprisingly, no theory or practice connects with enlightenment at all. Nothing does. Even the more obviously direct techniques such as looking for the looking -- that looking is the very same looking... I AM is an unbreakable, airtight illusion, because there's no illusion to break. If liberation happens (it's recognized there was only ever liberation), the illusion is apparently broken (since it never was real), but when that happens, it's clear that it happened for no apparent reason. The whole time I was single pointedly focused on enlightenment and truth, I was really only perpetuating myself -- doing my absolute best to prevent enlightenment, till the bitter end. It was the saddest and funniest event I could ever imagine.

?

Created it back when I was into Ramana Maharshi's teachings. Just put a zero in between to signify infinity. Fuck off.

There's just the unknowable infinite, which has no possibilities, as it's already everything, and nothing in particular. And this is the whole of it -- it is without limit, and too boundless to be defined. There is nothing else, and there is no separation.

Forgiveness can certainly make things seem lighter. But it overlooks the reality: there's nothing to forgive.

I truly hope you don't get banned. That's all I'm gonna say.

The only one that needs is an illusion. I need things in order to persist. Not saying spirituality can't be used to manifest states of blissful happiness. It certainly can be. It's just that it's not needed.
