Breakingthewall

Nobody contradicts that. there is simply the appearance of limits, and limits create the appearance of a self. Many of those who say they are awakened reach mystical states with psychedelics in which they replace the everyday self with the great self they call God, and enter messianic delusions. Awakening is the breaking of limits, realizing your true nature: total reality, impersonal, unlimited and free. Ant it brings an energetic change. many people don't like this, they need the super sayan level, because they prefer to keep the self, greedy attitude that bring suffering

To say that everything is love is nonsense, because if everything were love, you couldn't contrast love with anything else, so love would not be anything definable, then it would not be "love", it would be reality, so the only possible definition is: reality is reality

There is something in your reasoning (and Leo's) that I see as wrong. When reality is said to be a dream, this implies an agent, an act and a result. This is not real, reality is simply the absence of limits. Since there are no limits, everything is, that's it. It's not a dream, why use the word dream? nor is there anyone dreaming, there is an absence of limits being. You are not a mind, you are absence of limits, nothing more, totally impersonal, without the need for a mind or an actor acting.

For example, an experience from someone who never was interested In spirituality, an stract from the Michel hulin book I sat on the bed to look through the large window, right in front of me, and watched from there the lights reflecting on the narrow muddy streets of that small city. I was thinking about how Charles Lamb liked the clarity of the streetlights on the wet cobblestones, when suddenly a haze of a blue-white color, translucent, brilliant, stole this world and every experience of being there that I had from my eyes. With the mist came an ineffable peace and joy (...). You can barely describe an experience in which you are swept away into... into what? Something that I had never read about, that I had never meditated on, whose existence I had never known, in the same way that a child, before being born, cannot understand a description of this world. The mist grew denser, and as it grew deeper, the knowledge, the comfort, the radiance, the peace, in a word, the ecstasy, deepened equally, until "I" seemed to be "It" and "It" That" seemed to be "I." We were confused, mixed, fused... All of me was consciousness, awakening, and yet, when I came to, there was nothing to tell. When I was immersed, I was in everything that has been, was and will be; Now I realize that the human being measures space and time, nothing is before or after, but simultaneous, everything is there. Suddenly, the mist, the light, disappeared just as they had arisen. I was still sitting on my bed, clutching the sheet, with my eyes wide open, looking at the street lights. My first thought was: "Good! Underneath everything there is this calm, this joy, this security...". Then a curious thing happened to me. I looked at the outside world through the window, I felt the furniture in my room and I said to myself: "How strange, this world is a shadow. I have touched the Real and what is always "there"; all this world that I knew will from now on be unreal "Why is it there? To experience what?"

@Princess Arabia I think so. Many people subjected to extreme situations reach mystical levels. Soldiers in the trenches of the First World War, terminally ill with cancer, people locked up in prisons, Sioux doing the sun dance, etc. If the stress is enough and the person is predisposed, the form breaks and the unlimited manifests. It's an interesting book , wild mystic, hulin, that speaks about that

It could be said that reality is love in the sense that existence is the infinite that, upon realizing its infinity, does a dance of love with itself, and this eternal dance is reality. but before love there is the absolute infinity, undifferentiated and immutable. "before" in the sense that it is from this limitlessness that arises the total joy that originates the manifestation

Oh, you called me not awake? Just now I'm on my knees with my arms to the sky screaming: nooooooooooo

Anyway, if I have to do a description, I would say that reality is life. real openness to what existence is can only be called life. I am life flowing, total existence without limit, and the word love evokes pink cupcakes, attachment and my mother.

What sense does it make to say that reality is love and not describe what love is? Are we all obliged to have the same idea that that word evokes, or else the horrible and atrocious condemnation of being shamefully called unawakened, and humiliated to the point of seeking a cherry blossom tree to humbly make sepukku?

It seems that there are people here very attached to concepts, who say, reality is love, etc. and what is love? It's a word, right? and each one interprets it in a different way, then saying that reality is love is nonsense. reality is reality, and if you have reached the bottom of reality and want to define it, you can try to make your realization appear with different words, examples, try show what you have seen, but say: reality is love, and those who say no are not awake, it does not make any sense, love is just a word. Ah no, I'm talking about mystical love. It's the same, it's another word.

No, but my purpose with any psychedelic is to let go of the self. I think that infinite will is inflating the ego. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't believe that there is a guy, me, on high, creating things according to his will and then hiding from himself, but that there is reality happening. There is a fundamental difference, the self that disappears or that grows, which some identify with omnipotent god.

Psychedelics are a good exercise to practice detachment and make your mind plastic, but have a psychedelic trip, have experiences in which your human self mixes with mystical states, where you get bored and are alone and things like that, and then believe that's the truth...well, that's not my game

Just break all the barriers that you ve built around you by fear, then existence will flow free in your mind.

Excellent post. ego barriers are made of lies. if you want to see and be the naked, pure truth, you must strip yourself of any lie. Layers and layers of lies with which we create the separation between me and reality, the bubble of constant mental flow that separates you from the reality. If the surrender is real, the lie stops, and the bubble disappears.

Simple, just realize that they are concepts in your mind. they are real, as a concept. Concepts have their place, you have to know how to handle them to survive. The reality that you are is not the concepts, obviously, the concepts are just mental structures. As a human, mental structures are essential to adapt to the human hive. without that adaptation there is no survival. You have to handle them skillfully, but how are you going to be something you handle?

It is a seed that develops and grows in complexity and beauty. an eternal cycle of death and birth, like a plant with immeasurable ramifications, absolutely wild, but at the same time perfect. nothing you can understand, you can only pour yourself into it.

Why for you it's not enough: existence exists. And you need: my existence is the only that exists?

Even that is a concept. Like God, dream, imaginary, mind....just obstacles. Religión

It's irrelevant. If we need those ideas to grab, it's because we can't let go everything. It's an obstacle, but yes, what you say is obvious, but what I said is obvious too. When your experience is not inligthened anymore, and became breakingthewall, where is inligthened? In the past?

Your concept is true and false same time. Anything happening outside my experience is just an idea, but it doesn't mean that it's not real. If for you is useful have this concept, ok, if is more useful to have the other, great too. If you can remove all concepts , better

Others or only are just concepts in your mind. You can adopt the concept that there is only your experience, or that there are others. Awakening is to dissolve all the concepts, there is not place for only or many, just limitless, but after, again in the world of the concept, you can elaborate that there is only you, there are others because the infinity can replicate itself, anything.

Itis impossible for you to regret breaking human limits because what remains is total freedom, the perfection of existence. If not, it is because you have fallen into traps of fear, greed and vanity, that is, into limits.

The problem is imagining that God is a guy (specifically you), who gets bored, and does things, and is very joking and hides from himself, and all that. that conception occurs when the ego is not completely dissolved. reality is the unlimited infinity, that is what you are ultimately and it is completely impersonal. Infinity manifests itself in the cosmos in constant evolution, it is said to be love in the sense that it is pure existence without limits, not that it loves you and cares for you. You are the limitless wild reality, surrounded by thousands of limits imposed by thousands of generations of humans and millions of years of evolution to create the extremely complex pattern of existence that is now manifesting. Everything that happens is a cosmic dance, a very complex movement of evolution. Simplifying it as: you are god and you love yourself is wrong. what is god? you? No, you are the product of apparent duality. break the you, and limitless reality manifests. You can call it love, since limitless existence is what we call love, and in the dance of existence there is ying and yang, birth, death and evolution. You could say that it's imaginary, but it's just a word that implies a subject who is doing something, imagine, with a result, a dream . Wrong. there is just the reality happening, with many layers of patterns creating complexity. You are the reality, but reality is not a you

For me, awakening is simply removing the limits that we as humans impose on ourselves. These limits are given by fear and interaction with others. fear, vanity, greed are the main limiters. They can take on many different faces. If you want to break the limits, you must identify them and overcome them. It is extremely difficult, since they are a fundamental part of our nature, but if it is achieved, even for a moment, the full breadth of reality manifests itself.

Exactly, integrity must be complete, without a crack, if not, the truth cannot manifest in you, since the lack of integrity is always fear, barriers that you erect between you and reality, that is, in yourself.
