The point is that change equates to time, which equates to a limit, and that limit has an exact value in our reality: c, the speed of light. Every change or fluctuation in our universe is limited by c. Without that absolute limit, processes wouldn't be processes; they would be instantaneous. c is the limit of information transmission in this universe, and that limit makes things exactly as they are. c is time. Time is not relative; it is absolute; it is c. What is relative is how two processes moving relative to each other experience time. Any manifested reality requires a limit to information transmission, because without that limit, everything would be simultaneous, and therefore there would be nothing differentiated. A universe begins when the total symmetry of the void is broken, and to break that symmetry, a fluctuation, a differentiation, is necessary. For differentiation to exist, there must be a limit to information transmission. Without that limit, there are no different states or vibrations of any kind. Once that limit appears, reality explodes. Time, or Kali in Hinduism, is the creator of form. Without time, there is no form. Time is the necessary delay for a process to exist. Process is equivalent to time, and to manifestation. There is no change without time, and without change, there is no existence. Any possible reality involves time; time is an absolute, it is form. Form = time

What is the illusion? The self who believes that is a center. It's not an illusion, it's an energetic node that happens in humans by default to operate, evolve and survive. Why that self wants enlightenment? Because it perceive that is prisoner, it's a closed perspective. How this self can open it's perspective and stop being a tensional node that perceives itself as a center? Changing it energetic flow, releasing the contraction, the fear. Has this any relationship with knowing that it's not real? Zero. This is in another ontological level. Real and unreal are just labels that happens in the comparative level. Enlightenment happens in the energetic level, and the energy that closes the self is as real as the energy that builds the body, the difference is that the energy of the self is not confined, it's more free, with possibility of change of frequency

Here we have another genius to bring level to this forum. Sad .

The absence of delusion is being open to what you are. It's not something definable; it's an absolute reality. It's not a matter of not thinking, but of putting thoughts in their proper place. Thoughts are mental structures with meaning. Thought itself is reality; meaning is an interpretation. You can deactivate meaning and remain in substance, and then return to meaning at will. Then you know that any meaning is an approximation. You can try to approximate it as closely as possible, but you know it's an exercise, not reality. Reality is substance. Thoughts as emerging structures are substance; as meaning, they are something that points in a direction. These are two different ontological levels. You can open yourself to the level of absolute truth right now, expanding your mind without limit. Then delusion is impossible because you are not at the level of delusion.

I don't think so, fight hard for life is beautiful. Not for the results but for the fight itself. Our nature as humans compels us to broaden our horizons, to delve deeper, to focus to the fullest. The result is irrelevant; giving your all is what matters. If your mind and heart are open, you understand that life expects you to give your best. Expansion is the nature of life. If you think form is an illusion, you are dead; form is the dance of the totality. If you don't want to dance, you shrink. Nothing is static; you either advance or you are crushed.

I don't get what you mean

Nothing and emptiness are just ideas. And ideas that point in the wrong direction. Anyone who say that you are nothing is falling in contradiction. And if he add that the mind is an illusion, is falling in duality. Dead end path.

It's my problem. If I start participating here I can't avoid some reactions but that's dumb, people is how they are and that's it, no more interactions, just posting sometimes some thoughts

Ok ok thanks

😭 Please. Okay, let me explain. I don't actually think that about "dumbs," I say it as a joke because the vegan user has this irritating need to put himself on a pedestal and, with a contemptuous chuckle, look down on all those "dumbs", (including you and me btw) and repeat his endless litany. Then I, being reactive, read it and think, "Oh my god, give me patience," but God doesn't, so I write a comment. But I'm progressing and in some moment I won't do again

The illusory rabbits you mean I guess. Or only the rabbits and you are enlightened?! Man you are so cute teaching those dumbs. You are special. So different and better. Much ❤️❤️❤️❤️ and a a kiss with tongue.

For anyone interested, this is a process of awakening. Four or five years ago, I decided to go through my psychological structure because it was extremely hard. I only felt peace when enveloped in intensity, which involved considerable risk. Self-help was impossible, and my intuition told me that beneath the emotional mud lay another reality. Spiritual readings seemed dissonant to me; something didn't fit, a certain deception, always a mistake. Krishnamurti, Tolle, Ramana, etc., grated on me; there was a flaw. I once saw a video of some guys taking salvia and thought there was something interesting there. Breaking the control of the psyche, that was the key. I bought salvia, and well, it wasn't very fun, but it was exactly what I was looking for: a break. Then I read about 5-MeO, and I got it, I tried it, and it was extremely horrible. Then I found this forum and learned some basics about spirituality. I cut out all distractions, never read a novel or watched a movie again, and socialized as little as possible. I meditated for three hours every day minimum, even though it was extremely unpleasant, and I took mushrooms and 5-MeODMT hundreds of times, at least once a week but usually more. I began to understand the structure of the psyche, the derivations of the emotional system, attachment, the need to be accepted, the twists and turns the psyche makes to avoid seeing the unspeakable: not having a clan, a group, a family, in base, all the absolute falsehood of society, all the pressure, and the death, the absolute nihilism. I let go of everything superfluous, everything false. Mystical experiences began to occur. Dissolution, infinity, the source, all of that. But the emotional system remained. Every so often, I was struck by hatred, nihilism, emptiness, the misery of human life. At one point, the sensations became physical, overwhelming. I realized that my system was under constant tension, but that tension was being channeled through extremely efficient survival mechanisms. I realized that most of my internal activity was aimed at dissipating underlying tension. Things became unbearable; my ears were ringing at 100 dB. I'd walk down the street, and at one point, it felt like the pressure was going to crush me. My stubbornness is considerable, so I kept pushing, doing things like taking four maximum doses of 5-MeO in a single day after taking LSD. At some point, a phase shift occurred. It wasn't a single moment; it was an internal movement that lasted about a month. Gradually, the flow state without contraction began to normalize, although sometimes the old pattern would return, but only briefly. Then, something settled into my internal state that can be described as an opening at the base. The psyche wasn't closed, but open at one end; therefore, the energy didn't bounce around creating a vortex, but flowed through that opening, creating straight, clean lines. At a certain point, my internal state was always open, devoid of contraction Then a change of identity occurs. The basis of what I am is not form, but that openness of which form is an expression. That openness is not a thing, it is not definable, it is not love or joy, it is openness, period. That openness is everything, and there is nothing to hold onto there, you can only dissolve. You don't know if after death this or that, you know that death and life are equivalent in essence because both are in the openess and that the only possible attitude is total surrender. Openness has no limits or boundaries; it is what the ego fears most because it cannot classify or manage it, it can only shut down, surrender. Then openness reveals itself as total. It is what it is now, the totality. Pd: now I think, 🤔not bad intuition choose the name breakingthewall here so long ago before knowing about this topic and after doing psychedelic just a couple of times. Breaking the wall is exactly what awakening means.

Maybe you should tell to your doctor to change the medication 😅

An ultimatum. That sounds so serious. Don't get so angry, do as you said in your post, act like a kid. Oh wait....yes, I understand now.

Yeah, and feed dogs, that's essential. I have known a couple of cases of people who think that they are maximum authentic with themselves and they are the opposite. Well, a couple of cases no, 90% of people being generous When I was a child, I was absolutely dominated by attachment to my family, fear of death, and need for other people. It was all very fun and joyful, but it wasn't awakening. But what am I going to explain to you, wise one? 🤣

Yeah change is fundamental, existence is change. Existence is the manifestation of the reality. Incessant movement due to the inherent instability of the absence of limits. Any stability must be contained; in an open framework, change is permanent in all directions. The question then becomes: what is reality? It is the absence of limits. And what is change, what changes, what is the fundamental substance? There is no fundamental substance; change is relation, and relation is mathematical possibility, a coherent fluctuation between possibilities. There is no substance that fluctuates; fluctuation creates substance. Possible relations are stabilized by the very fact of being possible, and they mesh with each other ad infinitum. This does not begin; it is always existence. There is no beginning to anything; any limit is apparent, created by a frame of reference in order to operate, just like time.

Time is not something, is the order and rate at which changes occur, measured in relation to other changes. It's just a relative measure, what is real is change.

In that sense could be. If you are totally 100% open to your true nature all time without any rest of human emotional structure, then yes. But there is not problem being also human and remembered sometimes the people with which you have a direct connection and which makes you feel part of humanity

Awakening feels like there is no separation between you and the reality, you are not going to die but death is in you. Anything that could happen is the reality and you are that, then you can release the control, let the tensional node that needs being a center fall, so all your energy system opens up.

That guy says that the only real is the self. Who knows what he means with self. Maybe he's totally deluded, those gurus believe that they are enlightened, because they meditate, empty the mind an listened other gurus, so then they know what happens after death, whats everything, etc. For example he said that you feel grief if a friend dies because you thought that you posses him .bit nonsense right? Then maybe everything else are nonsense

Happy that resonates

Life is conflict. When the first cells joined together to form an organism and thus kill other cells to use their energy, the party began. Since then, life has killed life trillions of trillions of times.

Exactly. The faith that is needed is the faith in the unknown. Open your heart to reality then realize that's one with reality. So you say, death, come in, I'm open, I'm at home, my faith is total and I don't need grips. Not easy btw.

Yes sure, the form is limited as a form, but the wave is all the ocean from the pov of the wave because there is no separation between the ocean and the wave, so the wave looks inside and perceive itself as all the ocean. This doesn't mean that the other waves are imaginary, are real but from the pov of each wave others are part of it. Or as Rumi said , you are not a drop in the ocean, you are the ocean in a drop

@zazen about the distinction between essence and form. I'm going to explain as clear as I can. There is only one essence and infinite potential forms, I suppose you'd agree. The point is understanding what the essence of everything is. Let me explain my point of view. At a certain point, you decide to delve deep within yourself, to seek enlightenment, because you sense that possibility, but nothing you read resonates completely. Then you become (at least I did) obsessed with meditation and psychedelics, going all in, no prisoners. Then those phases happen: First, begin to see the structure of the self. You see that what you are is a node of tension, a center created by energetic layers based on genetic mechanisms of fear of destruction, attachment to the clan, and an absolute need to be accepted by the tribe. This is extremely powerful, and deactivating it is a great challenge. Second, you are able to go beyond meaning, you can empty your mind completely, reach absolute silence without terror, then the void occurs. Reality is a transparent, superficial hologram, and beneath it there is only an infinite expanse of the void. It is extremely difficult to endure this; it is terrifying. Third: at a certain point you realize that there is still a center observing the void; there is a subtle separation. Then the shift occurs: you realize you were looking outward, you change your focus, you look inward. You are something, what are you? It opens up. It is, metaphorically speaking, your heart. It contains everything. The infinite void is permeated by your substance. It has no limits, it is inexhaustible, it is everything. It is absolute totality. The form is not an hologram anymore, it's alive, full of life. Then you realize that what your substance is is limitlessness; the absence of limits that you are translates into totality. Nothing is missing; you have always been that. What you are is outside of time; not "happening." "Happen" is a possibility, an inevitable dance that occurs given the inherent instability of limitlessness. Nothing contains you; you are everything; nothing is missing; hallelujah, you are free.
