@James123 Enlightement isnt a permanent switch. You can realise yourself and you can forget it aswell. And there are more levels of depth to it too. Its not that simple.

@bibek678 As i meditate more and more i just realised i had a few of these experiences even when i was in childhood. Its possible you had these and you dont even know that.

@Trayambakam The thing is you can have a glimpse of enlightement when you are not ready for it, then ego freaks out

@Holygrail It can either freak you out or make you laugh, depents on your ego developement, I tend to laugh a lot when i am aware of my true nature.

@Roy I think its because we developed very strong sence of objective reality and think we have mostly figured that out. But this is only ilusion, you are very much clueless as you use to be as a child but you have learned to pretend you know something. You're still at the same place you started, you just pretend to know. Have you tried psychadelics? It can fuck with your sence of reality and you will start see it as magical again. Or you can develope magical perception through meditation, openmindedness is a good start.

On psychadelics i had mostly pleasant experiences. But while i explore and introspect i sometimes feel a dark side lurking in the corner. My ego is very resistant to it but part of me is curiouss and wants to explore it. I sometimes went little closer and it got scary as fuck. Should i explore it or should i stay away?

I dont believe i have to. i think its manifestion of my habit of facing my fears in life but i think with hell its a little bit of extreme though.

@m0hsen i intuitively know o will experience it at some point and it scares a shit out of me i can imagine horrible stuff and i know i will experience them eventually. It feels to me like i am avoiding this part of me and because of that it lurks on me in these trips and i dont know if i should face it or not. As i am in the trip i am aware the horrible stuff is imaginary and exist if i believe in them, but i also know i will at some point believe them, the fear is real and in these states when i am aware of this i wish the death is defitive but i know it isnt. This kind of thinking always pass after a while but it lurks in a corner.

I see, you still think you exist, thats the problem the thing you are identifying as right now is projection of ego not the real you

@Gesundheit i had experience of holding all perspectives as true and false at the same time. It was meta perspective and very weird experience. But having too much perspectives at once is limiting too. Maybe this is the reason why god seperates himslef. Everyone of us as humans has just one perspective. I think even if you are in godhead state thats just one perspective. You need to be in superposition to see the whole thing and thats probably what is happening here.

realisation and life is just another duality nirvana is right here right now

@Leo Nordin the path is the goal otherwise we can just kill ourself and that would be it.

@Blackhawk why would we? There is an answer in direct experience, and even if we dont know why would we should admit it? so what?

no now you are me you are the liar!

No you are underestimating the answers

@Someone here because it is what it is because it cant be otherwise

if i was you it would no longer be you but me, relatively speaking

who else could be you?

@Vittorio simply reality is a paradox and thats the reason we cant understand it with our minds

This idea come to my mind ones in a while. If i imagine the worst pain possible the surrender feels inevitable. ironically the worst suffering is the fear of the suffering

i am not gonna say i am not afraid of a death but there are things i certainly fear much more then death if there are two buttons and pushing first means definitive death and second means being tortured for a year and by torture i mean the worst torture you can imagine. I would certainly choose death. for me life can be far more scary then death sometimes

@snowyowl its confusing because the truth has two sides: - there is no self (ego self) - there is the trueself (God) And these two means the same thing, both are construct of the mind but from opposite perspectives. This duality of perspectives is inherent feature of language.

practicing mindfullness and raising conciousness

Depents on the definition you use for me its like this happynies is opposite to suffering and peace of mind is transceding these two that you can suffer midfully and still remain peacefull its like being happy even when you are not happy

@Origins Does this imply free will is limited in the present moment by mechanics that are within comprehension? Why do i sometimes do things that i dont know why i do, inst it because of some kind of hiden mechanics beyond comprehension? In the case when i know the "why" inst the "why" only story i tell to myself?
