@johnlocke18 the nothing you speak of is non-existence, and you cannot be aware of it because it does not exist. If you realized it, it is that it exists, and if it exists it is existence, an aspect of god

There is no evil, only sense of separation, low consciousness, stupidity if you prefer

enlightened for me is that in your mind it ceases and in its place an unfathomable empty well opens, the void that is god, the inexhaustible source of love. If that is so, if you are completely happy, the small you that remains perceive the glory of being ,the flow of love

Yes, you are existence and there is only one, there is only you, nothing else, but! you are existence dreaming a dream, a universe. not one dream, infinite dreams, simultaneously. and those dreams interact with each other. so I am a concrete dream. It is true that only a dream, something that I can transcend and be aware of what that dream is dreaming ... but I cannot stop dreaming, because I am the dream, just as I am the dreamer. well no, since the dreamer is not an "i", the one that is an i is the dream, an unreal "i" that can dissolve at any time without leaving a trace

I understand you very well! I hate that feeling of being a bitch looking for approval. for me the trick is to look very carefully. as soon as I say or do something designed to elicit approval, admiration, etc., I detect it, it produces a cloying, humiliating feeling. like: how much more are you going to lower yourself, bitch? in exchange for? that they think you're cool? Can you be more pathetic? clown .... haha it sounds like a lot of self-punishment, but if you don't correct those behaviors, where is your self-esteem? What are you? a total idiot. as you detect more and more of those micro / bitch behavior, you find them less tolerable, until you prefer to be quiet before falling into it

what prevents you from realizing who you are and keeps us in the ego is the fantasy that there are others. the ego is contrasting yourself with others. when you meditate and you see thoughts arising, that there is no total stillness ... those thoughts are the idea of others. you talk to yourself in the absence of others to talk to, but what you do is the same, contrast yourself with another. To stop this you have to come to the certainty, aberrant to the ego, that there is only you. you only exist, there is nothing else, nor can there be. but you are not you, of course. As long as you have the false certainty that there are others, there will be no empty mind

yes, in opposition to the emptiness that underlies, there is the richness of what is perceived. this leads to the realization of: emptiness is, I am.. although if you embody emptiness it seems (to me) that I am not. courage to accept being it is becoming possible

I am awake at night and I realize that I am looking for company, I am looking for love, to escape from that emptiness, but life clearly tells me: look for solitude. immerse yourself in it. loose any tie, any support. Really, totally. It's not easy ... can I do something so serious? It is not: do it, that glory awaits you, not at all. is: do it and enter the empty well where there is nothing you are going to get, you are going to lose everything. but everything is nothing, it is total fake

Honestly many times I have had this realization: beyond God, there is only unlimited emptiness. god is a fiction. I am God, and I am a fiction, the reality is that I am empty without life, absolutely nothing, a kind of dead that seems alive. but on the other hand I see the opposite. I am pure vitality, existence. I don't really understand it, I'm obviously not enlightened, but I don't adopt any other people's ideas. I continue to deepen, although that empty nothing where God is revealed as something fictitious, futile, is terrible, desolation in an absolute degree. Of course those are ego projections, there is nothing bad in the infinite void without life, but for the ego is horror

Another idea of why we need others: our minds create the illusion of separation. we perceive ourselves as separate and that causes us a huge feeling of isolation, unbearable. We mitigate this by constantly interacting with others. deep down we speak to ourselves. This is a palliative, but there is always a wall in our mind that cannot be crossed by many friends, couples, children, the wall that isolates us. If we remove the company, it is like removing the drug from the drug addict. Suddenly he realizes the horrible emptiness of his existence, and he is not able to bear it, he looks for more drugs whatever.

I would say that love is the will to be, but maybe its something broader

What would be your explanation that God is love?

Solipist Spiritual Ego Conjecture: ok, the idea about oneself acquired after spiritually realizing that you are god, the only existing existence, etc. now he is conditioning through his own spiritual bypassing: he is now proposing possibilities based on the deviant concept, like any concept, that others are a hallucination ... for example.

It's impossible to understand ?. You read it and think: ufff it's too deep for my understanding, i give up. But really it's a tongue twister

nothingness without existence does not exist. Imagine that they give you anesthesia and they wake you up half an hour later, or a million years later, and for you not a second has passed. that interval was nonexistence. a nonexistent interval. The nothing you speak of has no space or time, but it exists, otherwise you would not be able to perceive it. go to nothing more times (although it is scary, at least for me), until you see that it is everything, infinity, that is the mystery (some who say they understand, I suppose it is possible)

Yes but in that realization of nothingness, in which you are not even there, you (not you, the void) still are. It is without any attributes, totally empty. It is a sensation that has made me vomit. If not, it would be as if they gave you propofol, a timeskip. the point is that what I am seeing now, my phone on which I write, my room, are nothingness appearing to be something, but they are just a form in nothingness, that is, nothing creates all this. in fact, it creates all that is infinitely possible by the fact that it is. then it is not nothing, since it is something, you might say. Well, that's what I think, nothing does not exist since it always is, existence. you can perceive an empty existence, which you call nothing, or a total existence, which you call god, but both are the same

the human is social, without the tribe he is nothing, he is incomplete, somehow dead. almost no human in the world survives without the help of others. the ego is a social entity, formed on the basis of attachment / rejection. even a buddha prefers company to total solitude. You may seek complete isolation to realize yourself, but when you are no longer seeking, you prefer the wealth of the company.

the point is to see that it is absolute emptiness is God. It is not something that can be explained. infinity is not within emptiness, it is emptiness. I still don't fully understand it and when I have had an experience of absolute emptiness sometimes it has been unsettling. with 5 meo you get there. but other times I have perceived with total clarity that absolute emptiness is this, reality, everything that is possible, infinity

??It was a not so bad reflection

may be you present a different face to others than you present yourself, for having received criticism in childhood, etc. When they look at you closely, that distortion creates great anxiety, to be discovered. equalize both faces and you will be free

god = existence. the issue would be to define existence ... it is what it is, that it is not opposed to what it is not, since it does not exist. absolute without opposite

there is no eternal recurrence, only the present moment pretending to be something that happens. past and future are imaginary, a kind of film that is projected. just disidentify, relax and enjoy the movie

to become aware of the structure of the ego, of what it is. in doing so, for that structure to disintegrate. doing so empties the glass of content, being empty, it loses its shape, its limits, expanding and letting the subject see, that still exists, the infinite limitless emptiness that is existence and that is its real nature, filling it with existence, that It is love, and of limitless understanding that goes beyond what logic can express

It is an interesting topic. For me, awakening is not solipist, it is: I am the limitless emptiness full of existence, but there is no "i", only "am", there is no loneliness since infinity is the opposite of loneliness, I am the potential of everything what is possible, but .... also, apparently, I am a limited structure that creates a subject that perceives (apparent) objects. this subject is unreal, like a mental creation. then ... are there other apparent subjects with their apparent universe? the logic tells me that yes, obviously you, who is reading, apparently exist like me. in fact, you are me, with another form, other nuances, and we are both only apparent constructions (perfect and artistic) in the fabric of existence. But many people say: no, only you exist, others are only in your imagination. In part it is true, but on the other hand I would say that it is not. I would like someone, for example I read, to explain their point of view in depth, not just saying: wake up and find out. that answer could be applied to everything

the reason you are afraid is because you believe that you are a separate individual who has to fight to survive. danger lurks and you must avoid it. if you weren't afraid you would be stupid. many terrible things can happen to you. you need to be in control as much as possible to avoid it. If you realize that you are not a separate individual, you are not in control, nothing bad can happen to you, only what has to happen to you ... you stop being afraid
