Conceptually, the closest thing would be to say that ultimate reality is the absence of limits, o infinite being, but what we seek is to break the limits and be without limits, then you recognize what you are beyond this form. To do that, you have to understand the barriers you are putting up and dissolve them

non-duality means that everything is one, but not what is that.

You don't get it. In a tribe, members give power to a certain person they know well and take it away when they stop being what they want. In a kingdom, the subjects don't know the king; most have never seen him. They don't bow to him; they bow to the crown. The person himself isn't important; the institution is. This is authoritarianism. Democracy returns to the tribal system because the citizens know the leader, listen to him, and observe what he does. If they don't like him, they expel him. The subjects can't expell the king except by war, because he is in another level, he is an institution

Yes I guess so, but non dual is a limited idea, its possible to open the experience to its unlimited nature, that's beyond non duality

No, what I mean is that if you're in a nondual state, like an animal or a child, it's impossible for you to transcend the energetic barriers that keep you totally immersed in this experience like an evolving robot. It's not even possible for you to seriously consider the possibility of doing so. You might meditate to feel better, but nothing more. But if you've reached a psychotic moment in which, rather than duality, there's serious alienation, there's the possibility of breaking down the genetic barriers and opening the experience to the whole. This isn't returning to the nondual experience like a cat; it's stepping outside the framework of experience, its limits, and opening yourself to your infinite nature.

You don't know what it feels but you know that your body is going to be a dead thing in some moment

I once saw an elderly man fall to the ground. I tried to help him, but he couldn't breathe. I looked into his eyes, and now he was alive, but immediately afterward, he was dead. It's a very strange thing, a transition. You sense without a doubt that something trascendental has happened, and you know the same thing is going to happen to you.

When you are a kid you are all time in no dual experience but it's still limited. I think that you have to reach a point of unbearable, alienating, almost psychotic duality to decide to reverse that process. Then, if you reach a non-dual state, like a child, you realize that's not enough. You are no longer a child; you have to go beyond, break the experience, and open yourself to the whole. No child can do that because they are absolutely immersed in the experience; like an animal, they cannot transcend it. There are natural genetic barriers made of fear that are impossible for a child to break.

That's the way, you really have to want to penetrate trough the layer of the experience, open it to infinity. You have to let go everything ,then in some moment it will happen.

Yes but sure you have seen some dead corpses any time. You don't need that anyone tells you what happened, someone was alive, now it's an object, the person doesn't exist anymore.

Trump is great. He's going to show the world that narcissistic clowns with a decorative woman at their side are pathetic. Elon Musk has already taken a big step toward showing how pathetic those "winners" are, and now Trump is going to top it all off. The problem is that the lesson could be quite expensive. Anyway, it's good that trump won because the democrats with Blinken wanted war escalation in Ukraine. It could have had disastrous consequences

You deduce it when you see a guy alive and the next day he's a corpse. You think: This could happen to me. In fact, it's very likely that it will.

Everyone has the possibility to perceive the infinite nature of reality through form, but the structures created by evolution to get here prioritize another vision, since this has been the most effective formula. This is what we call infinite intelligence. Of the infinite possibilities, this is precisely what has come to be given certain circumstances, which in turn have infinite ramifications. There are infinite forms of the same reality, which divides infinitely but really remains indivisible.

It's not that it's unreal, it's irrelevant. Why saying that something that exists isn't real? It doesn't make sense. It's like having a headache and telling yourself it's not real... well, so what? It still hurts. Let’s say the substance of reality is the absence of limits, so the substance that constitutes the structure of what you are now, which is extremely complex and rich, is that. Imagine if it were stone. you’d say, okay, but what’s interesting is the form. Without form, stone is just shit. I don't want to be formless stone. I want to be Michelangelo's David, not a lump of stone. But if you completely break the limits, you see that the substance is total being. it is everything. A single molecule of stone contains infinite Davids and infinite everything. It is what you are. And the form of Michelangelo’s David is misery in comparison , it's like comparing a Ferrari to a galaxy. Sure, the Ferrari looks magnificent, but when you compare it to a galaxy with millions of supermassive black holes and billions of supernovas, it’s fucking shit, a joke. Nothing. It's not a good example because the galaxy is also form, but just to make an example Form then becomes so irrelevant that it turns transparent, because the substance shines with absolute light. You are that. You’ve always been that. It’s indescribable. It’s total. Nothing can be more. "More" doesn’t even exist as a possibility. Then form traps you again, and so it must be. Form is magnificent as form because its substance is the total. It’s what creates the infinite kaleidoscope of reality, and it’s in harmonic motion. It must be tuned, it must flow perfectly clean, expanded. The more the substance is perceived, the more the form is appreciated, because the form is the substance in a particular configuration. It can be any configuration ,if its substance is perceived, it is perfect. Again, you could say: but perception is illusion, who is perceiving? It's irrelevant, perception is happening, then it is. The unlimited could be perceived or not, it is with or without perception, then in some moment it would be perceived, then perception is an absolute, like form.

One day he was in a strange mood and decided to create Vlad Tepes to impale mothers with their babies on top pouring his blood on her head in concentric circles to have a feast in the middle while listening to the screams.

Fight to the end. What do a few years of suffering matter? If we must suffer, let's suffer. Perhaps in the end, someone will realize that their suffering is beautiful, in fact, its glory. Or maybe not, who knows, but triying is always noble, noble behavior create a noble pattern of existence.

Yes life could be very hard, but even that it's life. We have to learn to see through the shit

Smarter. It helps to focus your thought more precisely in the correct direction

I finally decided not to eat fish anymore, which is a good thing since it's highly contaminated. Commercial fishing also brutally destroys marine life. I'm also minimizing meat consumption. I'm sure a day working in a slaughterhouse for cows or pigs would be a hard experience, but chickens that have lived in decent conditions is more or less ok to me. Milk protein from pasture-raised cows or eggs are fine too. Maybe it's incongruous, but who cares?

From an unlimited perspective, it makes no difference whether you're a deformed dwarf whose parents sold him to be tortured in front of an audience of psychopaths or a divine interdimensional demigod. It's absolutely irrelevant. Only substance is something; structure is nothing, since it's one possibility among infinite possibilities. Structure is transparent. There's always a structure, and no structure means anything. From a relative perspective, the change of state of a subatomic particle has a butterfly effect that creates infinite consequences. Everything has infinite meaning; every thought that appears expands into infinite causes and effects in the totality of infinite interconnected forms. Unlimited perspective means that all the forms expand in infinity and disappear, but the substance can't dissapear, because the substance is precisely absence of limits. But then, from a relative perspective you realize that there is a movement that must be done, Every breath, every brainwave, goes in a concrete direction. Your life is an infinitely interconnected process that's in motion, like the rest of the whole. It's stupid not to take it seriously. It's like playing in the Wimbledon final. It's just a game, but it's absolutely serious. Not a wrong move, perfect focus, perfect alignment. Anything less is stupid. Like being in the Wimbledon final and starting to chat in the phone. it's not something you would do under any circumstances. Life is the same; it's absolutely serious, but there is a purification process that doesn't happen in one day One day you realize that a certain behavior is stupid, wrong, and you abandon it. Another day you realize that there are repressed feelings that need to be expressed, and you do it, you find the way. Life shows you the direction you should move, and there comes a point where you begin to see that what happens is part of a process. You surrender to the flow, and the outcome of the action isn't as important as the optimal course of action. You join the flow. That's the only way that I see, the way of: everything is meaningless, it's just a game, nothing matters, doesn't work for me. Everything matter from a relative perspective, nothing matters from a unlimited perspective, but both are real, then you can visit the absolute perspective every day and rest in it, open all the contraction and be one with the total, then back to the ground to do what must be done

saying that there is no self is confusing and false, the same as saying there is no meaning. From an infinite perspective, there isn't ; from a finite or relative perspective, there is. Both perspectives are real. If you hit yourself with a hammer, it hurts. Calling that an illusion or unreal is trying to be psychotic without achieving it. What you're looking for is to be able to place yourself in an infinite or absolute perspective. This isn't achieved by denying the reality of the relative perspective; it's repressive and doesn't work. You have to understand that you're passing from one perspective to another, not that one is real and the other false. If you deny the relative perspective, you achieve nothing because its reality will trap you.

The same thing happened to me with fishing. Killing fish made me sadder and sadder every time. Even so, I used to go snorkeling with a harpoon and kill them. I lived on a boat and had to fish. Really, if you don't kill them, they'll die of something else. All living beings die, and it's not like humans, who occupy a place in the machinery of society. No one will miss a fish; they will be instantly forgotten. For me wasn't about pain or moral, was about the animal is alive, then it's dead. You see the change, something powerful, full of life, in a moment is an object, it's very sad to see, I couldn't get used or enjoy it, I always felt shit killing.

That perspective is quite real. Powerlessness is what leads to radicalization and scapegoating. It's the vile, anti-noble side that takes the reins. But I think a scenario like Nazi Germany, where they were truly being oppressed and humiliated by a foreign power and had recently experienced the utmost trauma in the First World War, is very different. Almost all of the Nazi leaders had been in the trenches and were filled with hatred. Today's populists are just a facade, IMO. If they started to act with real harshness on a large scale, they would lose support, but who knows, we will see.

Btw, that doesn't mean that nothing means anything, just that you want to reach a mental state where nothing means anything. Really from an infinite perspective, nothing means anything, but this is a meaning too. It's enough to be now without meaning for a while, absolute empty of the slightest meaning

I would say that more than dissolving the self, what we need to do is dissolve the meaning. When they say the self is illusory and that you are the totality, you remain in a mental framework that you are the experience, the totality, etc. What we need to achieve is being here and now without any meaning. The experience must be absolutely empty of interpretation, of rootedness, of relationship with anything else. Meaning relates and implies an endless chain of relationships. If you say: "I am not the self, I am the complete experience," there are a thousand pages behind that, they are there lurking. It's simpler: no meaning. I used to repeat it constantly: nothing means anything, until in my mind the meaning fell away, then your mind falls away, because your mind without meaning is nothing.
