Breakingthewall

Ok, but dream implies a dreamer and something that it's not a dream. Everytime that I read that of dream or that reality in imaginary, the mind create duality dreamer/dream

everybody says that, and it's incomprehensible. a dream of whom? and who dreams is not a dream? Dream implies something that is not a dream, so what is this?

Not weakened in the sense of a vulnerable ego, but lightened in the sense of an ego without fear, that understands itself thoroughly, and that understands its place and can depart at will. An ego that does not understand what it is will never be able to let go of the mental grips, it has a horror of emptiness, it needs content, constant mental flow or it panics.

the ego can become lighter and lighter. up to what point? I don't know, but pretty transparent. the ego moves away and in its place remains a window to infinity. As the op has said, the dissolution of the ego is not total, since it exists and you are still a human, but it can be dissolved by, say, 95%, to say a cypher. The work is to identify what prevents this transparency and address the obstacle, how to understand it, face it. Honesty and be insightful is needed, I'd say that @r0ckyreed has both conditions

The ego is the survival mechanism of the hive entity that is humanity. Just as animals have genetic programming that makes them survive, humans create a conceptual network that is transmitted between individuals and that is very flexible and changing, which allows the species to adapt, survive and dominate the environment seemingly without limit. . Its bases are life and death, words and thoughts kill and give life, its power is enormous. Acceptance or rejection are life or death. you, as an individual, are a slave to the hive. all your motivation is evolutionary programming.

Yes, It is very difficult to understand how the self creates the distortion, there are layers of deception that must be deciphered. It's like a natural process, once the chain reaction starts, it continues to slowly disintegrate layers. I will check, i have never done a systematic practice but who knows

The ego is also something else, it is a slave of the collective mind. The collective mind is an evolving entity that is made up of all the minds that contact each other through words. The collective mind can absorb the energy of 40 types of a Paleolithic clan, or billions interconnected by means that the same mind invents to evolve, which is its purpose, like that of everything that lives.

There is obvious proof. In the eternity of existence, only I exist, breakingthewall, and there will never be another shape? That is impossible, there will be infinite shapes in infinity. So, there are others, that's it. You can say: no, there is only me, and the others are in the past or in the future, but the dimension of time is a creation in the infinite, really everything is now, so the infinite others are now

Life is an evolutionary path where each obstacle is in the exact place. There is no guarantee that the obstacles will be overcome and if they are not, there is stagnation, and stagnation increases the pressure, mental suffering, as a mechanism that urges us to get out of it. If you are humble and forget your delusions of grandeur, the path is clear and you can follow it. You have to have enough faith to give up control without stopping doing everything necessary at all times. As you say in the thread, where will this take us? higher, more diaphanous, purer, more beautiful. courage must be total, dedication total, and humility total. anything else is a mistake, and mistakes are paid for

I did 5meo and immediately the limits disappeared. this is infinity. An endless abyss opened before me. I automatically realized that in the face of infinity, I was nothing, my entire experience was nothing, anything blurred until it became zero. nothing. The terror that invaded me was total. reality was infinite death with no possibility of escape. It's all an illusion, it's really nothing. I couldn't conceive of anything more horrible, worse than torture. After a while I did it again, and again, lot of times, until I got used to that emptiness. The problem was simply my attachment to the limits of the mind, my vertigo to infinity. Like everything that causes terror, the solution is exposure and getting used to it. to the point of not distinguishing the opening to infinity while sober or doing high doses of 5meo

The problem for me is not saying that reality is God. Reality exists, there is no doubt, right? and it is infinite, therefore it is everything, we can call it god, existence, etc. The problem is saying: I am God and I am imagining reality. here the alarms ring. there is a misunderstanding. First, I am God. It should be: what I really am is not me, it is God. subtle but essential difference. Second, I am imagining reality. Here the self becomes the cause, the center and, furthermore, separated from reality. It can't be, reality is God, not God/I imagining reality. there is no actor/action/result

The truth is that for me personally the reading of these people or other spirituality is of absolutely no use to me, I have never found a useful spiritual reading, on the contrary, they all settle the self, they make it heavier. That doesn't mean that I don't consider his openness legitimate, the same as that of Leo, whom I don't really understand, but I don't underestimate him either.

You could see that sellinwaterintheriver does not advocate stagnation, but real openness as a starting point for spiritual exploration. first, what they call enlightenment, the opening of the self, then if one wants, exploration of reality. In fact, it proposes readings from people who have carried out very serious psychedelic exploration for 20 years, esoteric topics, etc. but what happens is that in this forum what people like is fast food spirituality. which says: all those guys who have dedicated their lives in extremely harsh conditions, for 8000 years, to the human openness towards the infinity of existence, were clowns and cheap saints. The thing is much simpler: you are God imagining reality for love. do you understand it? easy right? good! You are already more awakened than Buddha, Ramakrishna and Maharshi together, and without leaving home!

It can be stable? example osaid says that once you become enlightened it is forever. I don't see it that way, having a moment of no self is extremely difficult for me. I have to force it with meditation and intention since the inertia of the mind creates what I call the self, which is like a bubble, or a sensation of center. There is a receiving center of experience and that is me. to drop the self is to eliminate the center. existence remains but there is no reference point, and there is no need for control. At this point the past/future temporal sequence is eliminated and the interpretation of the moment ceases, the mind is emptied of content and only the now remains, which has no limit and here the true nature of reality is manifested. but there is a problem, it is very difficult to contain the mind that is going to try to interpret this, and in doing so, you return again to the bubble of mental flow that creates the appearance of a receiving center of experience. Once you have managed to open the now completely, you can do it again, but in my case the mind immediately tries to capture the scene, understand what this is using the concepts of infinity, creation, cause/effect, etc. The flat mind, beyond a few minutes, generates enormous pressure towards habitual functioning, the inertia of a lifetime. Each opening makes future openings easier, and in normal experience there is a transparency, the infinite is just below the experience, but my ambitious nature tells me: dive to the deepest, dissolve completely using whatever medium, drugs , meditation, etc. Not to understand what is this, but to see. But who wants to see? The self, right? It's very easy to enter in wrong paths

This is freedom imo. The matter is not so complicated when you see it, but an impossible labyrinth when you don't see it. the labyrinth of the self. The problem, the barrier, the trap is the self, and everything that it implies. Being an infinite and impersonal extension that is life, existence, is not the same as a self. The self is always limited. that: you are god imagining reality because you love yourself. It's one limitation after another. The problem is that the mind will always take you to that and escape from the limitless reality, because the mind cannot grasp the limitless. Then you think, this experience exists, therefore it is being created, it is the effect of a cause: God. and god must be uncaused. So what is God? Let's see, what's left? I. I am God, I am the cause, the one who imagines reality. The self, which is a fiction created by the appearance of limitation, that feeling of "I am" that exists in every human, instead of doing the difficult thing, moving away, does the easy thing: enlarging itself to the god level. wrong exit from the maze, marked with a radioactive skull on the map

war? You're wrong, I just want to see through you, and I've already seen. What if you forget about Leo's stories, your need to appear smart, awake, your fear, your need for control, and take charge of your life, and be radically and totally honest? Or do you prefer to continue with children's games? do you get anything from them? appear as something important in your eyes? That's all lies and that is a pretty horrible prison. get out of jail man, you can

Realizing that memory is a function of the mind is not going to automatically get you out of your mind. since the one who realizes this is the mind, so everything remains in the mind. To get out of the mind, something that the guy in the video has not done and I would say that almost no one in this forum has either, you have to do an action of courage, you have to let go of all the mental grips and be now without any handle, in the total void, where only you exist in total silence, and once here, also release the you. open the now.

@LSD-Rumi well, if you think that first there is a quantum foam that is the fabric of reality, and in unimaginable dimensions the first elementary particles originate that give rise to something of unimaginable complexity like an atom, which is grouped into stars, which after a perfect cycle give rise to complex elements such as carbon, which is perfectly organized in a kind of artistic choreography of impossible beauty to create complex molecules, which give rise to an engineering mechanism worthy of a god that is DNA, and emerge self-replicating organisms...I'd say that's pretty impressive.

Just your ideas I'd say. Inside of the mental bubble. It's not easy to go out, few even understand that they are inside of a mental bubble

Well, the lines are not infinite because they are just an idea, they don't exist, same than the numbers. There is only one infinity: the infinity

What I'm asking you is if you have realized all of this on a mental level, understanding, or on a direct, mystical level, and if it is the latter, how many times, how do you access those states. For me, before intuiting/understanding something like this you have to access totally mystical states on a regular basis, mystical ecstasy, zero resistance, no mind. drop the self. like ramana maharshi and those people. I work seriously to access those states, it is not easy at all, the mind is cunning. Accessing mystical states is something that few people do. Think for example that guys like Zen Buddhists or people as Ramakrishna were dedicated to it a lifetime and had a different vision than that: you are god creating reality. How have you come to that realization? Would you have come to that if you had never seen a Leo video? because any intellectual suggestion that took you there is deception. do you know this? Or are you lost in the labyrinth of the mind?

How do you know that? Because Leo said to you? Not enough. Or do you realize god doing that by yourself? How exactly?

The expression God is creating reality for me is false. You could say God is reality, but then you can also say reality is reality. God implies a subject doing an action with a result, reality. That is not so, it is the reality springing from the fact that there are no limits. no one is needed imagining anything

Let's see, so a priori it seems stupid from a guy who has gone crazy, but... it is a mistake to underestimate Leo. also overestimate it. doubt. I am at a point where for me deep realization is the emptiness of the now, leaving the mental content, and Leo speaks of the opposite, of mental constructions, but not conceptual, but rather the creations of reality. dismissing or ridiculing this is a mistake. reality is creating forms. What is relative is the conceptual interpretation of those forms, but Leo does not talk about that but about becoming those forms. maybe he's one step ahead, or one step in other path

Here in this forum we are talking about a subject extremely slippery. It has the peculiarity that your mind always makes you think that you are right, that you have reached where you had to go.The reality is that you are alone before a huge enigma, existence. this, now. Luckily there are people who want to talk about it. We are all annoying with that: you are wrong, I see it. but in this matter being wrong is normal
