I didn't mean you, I meant that the op have so big need to be enlightened that he can't do a single step towards the real thing

In other words, narcissism is a dead end road

@m0hsen In other words, you are not the place where reality occurs, you are the reality. the source and the flow are equivalent, there is no one without the other. To realize that you are the immutable "place" is to be separated from your substance. I'd say that this is Buddhism, and that's why they say that reality is an illusion, an hologram, because they don't realize the absolute fullness. It's absolute, because it can't not be, exactly absolute as the empty conciousness, there are two faces of one reality .

I'm talking about the same, but I don't see that my true nature is awareness, I see that awareness is something that happens inherently to existence. Our true nature is just absence of limits, but this implies flow of alive intelligence. You can be open to yourself in different degrees. It's not a matter of a change of perspective. Change of perspective is a necesary step, then you locate yourself as existence not as a psyche, but it's still limited. It's absolute as quality, perspective, but limited as depth. You could say that this is enlightenment, but enlightenment is limited , the doors of perception can be opened, or closed, having the absolute perspective

I just say my experience, maybe everything that I say is wrong, but I dedicate a lot of time to the openess. Let's see, what I mean by openess is that what we are is reality, and our perception is limited, it is closed. Let's say that we are a certain pattern of reality that translates into an experience with certain characteristics. If we were a dog it would be other characteristics. Since this particular configuration creates, by contrast with its peers, language, learning, etc., a self that is aware of itself, that attributes certain characteristics to itself, this self at a given moment wants to penetrate reality and unlock it. One fundamental thing that the self sees is that what it blocks is the self itself, so it sets the goal of dissolving itself to stop blocking, eliminate all identifications and finally give up control. This allows reality to stop perceiving itself as limited, as something concrete. it becomes fluid, without limits. This does not mean that you understand anything or know anything, since understanding or knowing is a matter of the self, but it allows existence to perceive itself as a living flow, inexhaustible creative intelligence by definition because it has no limits. where does this lead? I don't know but the deeper it is, the more life and the more beauty is perceived. In moments of total depth you realize what you are, an abyss in which existence arise, and the abyss and the arising are one. It's impossible the absence of limits without existence, are the same. Others will say: your perception is false, you are the immutable witness and everything else is illusion. but for me that differentiates between witness and illusion. and they go further and say: you have created the illusion to experience love. I don't see this even remotely like that, I see that the abyss exists because it is literally infinite, and at the same moment in which it exists, that is, always, everything that can exist exists. It is multiple because there are infinite bubbles or perspectives, and one because it is a synchronic whole, which being infinite implies absolute perfection, but these are visions, deductions. It is better to forget them and have a single objective: opening to total infinity. When you open yourself to total infinity, even 2 seconds, one thing is obvious: this is all there is to know or see, the substance of reality, the rest is irrelevant. Reality, what we are, is at the same time the total infinity, the unfathomable abyss, and a concrete bubble of perception, and all concrete bubbles of perception. understandable? I would say no

I don't know that for sure, it's just my perception. As I said, the objective for me is the opening to unlimited reality, then perceptions and deductions occur, but all this enters the realm of speculation. It is best not to believe anything anyone says, and even not to believe what you deduce yourself. It is irrelevant, what is important is the openness. This is not knowing or understanding, but being in total depth. but this being inevitably creates a vision of how reality is organized, for me the important thing is that this vision, if it is inevitable to have it, is not an obstacle to what is real, which is openness. For me the vision: I am God imagining reality, blocks, closes.

Because this is a limited realization. For me it is not difficult to silence the mind, without identification or meaning, silence. then you see yourself as the unchanging consciousness that witnesses. well, but this is not true opening, reality is not that, this is still limited and dual. Reality is the absence of limits and this is the source from which reality flows. What you are is the source, and this source is the absence of limits, it is, so to speak, infinite living intelligence. There is no witness, the witness is created when existence arises, there is no creator, everything exists spontaneously, there is flow in forms, movement of intelligence. The perception of this is the opening that is sought, empty meditative states are necessary but limited, reality is more

Yes, it's interesting and possible, since there are mental formulas that can cause opening in a given moment. But how do you give the answer to the Zen master when he asks you the sound of clapping with one hand? I can only think of one logical answer, applause is with two hands, therefore, what is the sound of something that does not exist?

Not. Complexity, depth . I understand that idea of enlightenment, Ralston, spira, etc. Identify yourself with existence, not with the psyche. That is the first step, after this comes mysticism, the non-conceptual understanding of what existence is, which is produced by opening to it. but it seems that for most people it is very important to think that they have arrived

If you are the seeing eye, what do you see? Your dream that you create? This is not complete, is still duality, and a mistake. The eye appears when the object appears, because eye and object are one, so enlightenment is much more than understand that you are the existence itself, it's open yourself to what existence is. And it's not a dream that "you" create to experience love, there is no cause to the existence, the only cause is the absence of limitations, that is nothing

The answer is that a rabbit's mind is empty of thought but full of fear, but that doesn't matter to James, he will constantly look for the formula to appear the most enlightened, it seems that that is very important to him. Yes , according to you enlightenment is a mind empty of thoughts, that's why I asked you that about the rabbit, but ok, all is clear

sure sure, and a lot of love and all that. This is already clear, but I was asking you if you believe that a rabbit's mind is silent. Your answer is the one that Leo used to give as an evasive one: you are imagining the rabbit. good! But what's the point of that kind of dynamic? be the most awake? so that?

In the eternity of existence, has anything other than Carl Richard ever existed? If so, where is that something now? in the past?

Yes yes sure 🥱, but did you know what I mean, or are you using evasives to win like always?

Complete silent doesn't mean still. Do you think that the mind of a rabbit is silent?

What it's absolutely true is existence, but then you have to perceive as deep as you can what existence is. Realize just that existence exist is good but just the beginning

Maybe change of frequency, or opening.

you can have a silent mind but still closed by barriers. Silence is not the end of this, the true barriers are silent, they are not the monkey mind but its source. the inherent fear of being what you are.

Why solipsism? . Your experience is absolute for you, but that doesn't mean there aren't others. how do you know? Because can't you be in other experiences? It is absurd reasoning. You cannot be in another experience because you are this experience, so if you were in my experience you would no longer be you, you would be me. obviously not? but experience is not the key but the substance of experience, which makes experience irrelevant. In substance all experiences are one, so yes, there is solipsism, but it is rather unity.

The thing is, how do you ask yourself that? Obviously not with the mind, because the mind is superficial. Then, without the mind no question could be done, just a movement could be done, the movement that penetrates, that opens. If the mind is asking: what is that hears? You are going to get a mental answer

What we are aware of is usually only the surface. thoughts emerge from depth, from the energetic configuration of existence that you are. No meditative trick is going to be of any use to you, since what emerges is the result of a reality, of a hardware. For some reason we are all afraid to look hardware in the face, I would say it is an evolutionary trick to move like a human tide. It is very difficult to open yourself completely, to the core, but if you want to be your own master and not a puppet, you must do it. There are no shortcuts, it's not an easy thing. You have to be a scalpel that opens the psyche and sees through it. psychedelics are essential I think

I can't see it in that way. At the end everything is unity, or oneness but the form is also real and its is duality, maybe the pain does not make claims of what you are, but that a lion eats you legs does. You can't denying what you are, that's evasion. The result is that it make impossible the real opening to what alive infinity is, then you are stuck in a kind of Buddhism, equanimity, clam happiness, that is much better that being anxious, but it's still close. The total opening to what lives is possible but it doesn't admit evasion like everything is imaginary. Because imaginary means false. The meanings are imaginary but the reality is absolutely real.

Yeah he understands very good that everything is synchronized, the reality is much more than it seems. That something infinite is synchronic has a definition: perfection, and only perfection can exist. It is unimaginable, but it is possible to open to it because that is what we are. the substance of reality is living intelligence, we are that taking a form that fits infinite forms. Substance is absolute because everything is that, but the cosmos is also absolute because it always is, and has no limits. the two faces of reality, the one that is defined by the formless substance, and the one that is defined by all the forms that are a total form, the infinite in movement, what emerges from the absence of limits: the total glory of existence . I think that that guy means that when he talks about the heaven in earth

Yes but dualities have a real basis, that is why they exist. A dog also perceives duality between itself and what is not it, it's simple, if you get hit it hurts, if you hit a chair it doesn't hurt. you cannot deny the separation, since it is real, not an idea. ideas arise based on this fact, don't create it

It is extremely hard to live in a dull, blocked and anxious state, and it is the normal state of most people. I would say that the main reason is fear. After childhood we come to the conclusion that control is absolutely necessary. We sift the flow of existence and translate it into concept in order to control it and thus achieve what we perceive as essential: fitting into society. The concept is not absolute, it is relative to society and this creates a state of constant insecurity, anxiety. neuroticism, mental illness. Our entire mental landscape is bounded, divided, limited, defined, according to arbitrary definitions. We consume tons of mental content: movies, novels, essays. All of this is shaping our control software and making it more sophisticated. We begin to consume spirituality and our software takes on spiritual nuances, but the control is always there, iron, impossible to let go. Our mind is a steel corset, and living in it is truly and totally miserable shit. Congratulations comrade, because it is perceived that you have really been able to get out of the prison, from the scam that almost always entails being a human. Now your mind is free, and your mind is reality itself. happiness, flow, beauty, joy. like when you were a child but even more so, because you have infinity at your fingertips.
