@Barna Hi Barna. If I may say, you don't need to find something to help you. Rather you need to lose something. And that something you need to lose you may consider your most valuable possession in this world. Could you do that? You say b-beats didn't have much effect on you. Nothing will really do it for you unless your totally ready to surrender. Otherwise your just kidding yourself. Awaken from the dream of self this moment. Just let it go! Only you can do that! Think of it this way. What you may consider "you" is like a shell that needs to crack wide open. And however much you hold on to the illusion of you is how hard the shell will be to crack out of. It really is that simple.

@Earnothing You may have seen this already but here it is in case you haven't. You could spend a day or better inquiring just one question. Best Self-Observation Questions: What am I? No, seriously now... WHAT THE FUCK AM I????? No, cut the shit! What am I -- RIGHT NOW -- in my direct experience???? Who is aware of reality? Who is aware of me? Who is perceiving? Who is the owner of the body? Who is the owner of the mind? Who is feeling pain? Who is asking all these questions? What was I before I was born? What am I when I'm in deep sleep? What could I be if I'm not the human body/mind? What connects and unifies all of my different senses? What is true independent of ever-changing sense experience? Why do I believe I'm the body? Why do I believe I'm the mind? Where to do thoughts arise from? If I'm the body, what is everything else that I'm seeing? Why do I trust my feeling that I'm the body? Is a feeling really evidence of TRUTH? Why must I be an object? What if the "perciever" has no attributes or properties? When I close my eyes, where did the world disappear to? Where is sound occurring? Where are thoughts occurring? Where are body sensations occurring? What is the relationship between physical body sensations and my visual field? What if I don't exist? What if I can't locate myself because I am "empty" or without form or attribute? What if I'm addicted to looking only for objects or perceptions, but my true nature is neither of those? What if I'm just an idea? What if my entire paradigm of physical reality is just an idea? Could my body and brain just be ideas? Is any physical object actually permanent according to direct experience? What distinguishes one object from another? Do boundaries between things really exist, or are they ideas? What would happen if I stopped distinguishing existence from non-existence?

@Earnothing There is no "one size fits all" in this work so experiment a little and see what works for you. When you hit on something, because it is a hit or miss thing, stick with it. Leo put together a nice list of self -inquiry questions somewhere here on the forum too. If I find it I'll send it your way.

@Earnothing It sounds like your on the right track! The only advise I can give you is don't put too much emphasis on trying to repeat the experience. It could keep you from it. If it happens, it happens is the best attitude to take.

@Will Bigger Tao Te Ching It isn't aware of it's greatness therefore it is truly great

This is what you look like without an ego.

The mind will always be the prisoner of it's own walls.

@Will Bigger Something tells me yes. Consciousness is blind to itself. Pure consciousness or God has no self awareness. It's perfection is that it knows not of itself and yet it gives everything. Only through the eyes of imperfection can God be realized. That is the magic of it all. The great dance. Everything is happening, and at the same time, nothing is happening at all.

@Azrael Nice! Best of luck to you brother in 2017 and all inhabitants of this planet. May we all awaken from these small existences to realize what we really are is simply one God being God in many different ways. I too have awoken to something very recently that has changed everything. I dared to travel into the heart of God and it was there that I seen a tiny little bubble floating in infinite love. When I looked closer, that little bubble turned out to be all of existence. I can't even express how the emotion and tears just poured out of me at the realization that everything is perfectly in it's place. Always looking forward to any new insights you may have to share. Love and Peace

The wind is coming across the open field, hits the building and has no where to go so starts circling around against the incoming wind. He can see and hear the wind before it even gets there. I get these wind devils against the south side of the house all the time with leaves and snow. I was watching them just yesterday. I could of shot a vid. of me doing "aerokinesis" too. I'm not saying there isn't energy's that can be developed but this isn't it.

@LetTheNewDayBegin I like your name. It is a new day. I've had awakening experiences before that shook my little world of existence. But the problem was that I could never really see where that fit in to the big picture. Now I see it crystal clear. It's not me that is happening at all. It's God. All of it.

I think I've seen something and wanted to share. All existence is like a tiny little insignificant bubble floating in infinite divine love within the very heart of God. The only truth within this little bubble of existence is love. Everything else is illusion that God has infinite capacity for through divine love and compassion. *I know the words themselves don't say much here. But for a moment just stop everything. Shift the location of everything happing within existence. All this IS happing within the heart of God. Move Everything you know of to that location and everything changes!!.

Is there a difference? This is what I see now that I didn't see yesterday.

@Neo I think that's called "superposition"? Is that right. Just to ask, did you see the video I posted "Expert explains the holographic universe". There was a lot there that made sense to me and answered a lot of questions I have about different experiences through life. Even before I knew anything about higher levels of awareness, enlightenment and such. I'd like to hear your thoughts on it too.

@Neo Yea hard to believe but that seems to be the consensus. Everything exists in the mind except paying the bills. hehe I ask Leo why we share the same reality between different observers. That's the part of this that doesn't quite add up. He said reality is expressed in patterns that we share. I try to keep reminding myself that no matter how reality seems to be, it is all happening in my mind. And that doesn't exist either? Am I just talking myself into this? But it is true that we only know reality through our 5 senses and not directly. Lately I've been researching the theory that reality exists as a hologram. It does give a decent explanation of what creates reality (information). Some people in the science community are also on board with the theory of a holographic universe. David Bohm was one of the first and he was a brilliant observer. Most of that debate stems from black holes. Maybe human minds are tuned to the wrong realm of the physical and living in delusion. I have no direct proof of that in my experience though.

@ULFBERHT Time, space, movement and a seemingly continuous experience (duration) are just a few of the tools the mind uses to navigate within it's reality. Otherwise everything in reality would be bunched up into one heap. As it truly is.

@Leo GuraDoes any of this fit into your experience with 5meo, God/infinity and reality?

I watched a vid. today on David Bohm and The Holographic universe. I thought it was excellent btw. But here's the thing, in it there was a part about the pineal gland producing natural DMT and a duct that leads from it to the back of the throat. Have you ever tasted "The Nectar of Enlightenment" during a deep meditative state? It's said to leave a bad taste in the mouth. Thought that was interesting.

When I was little sometimes reality would suddenly become one fabric with a texture to it almost like cotton. Not to the touch but I would just see it that way but not as the eyes see it either. That experience would have a very surreal feeling to it. It wasn't a bad feeling, just very different. Maybe that childhood memory has some real truth to it. Do you ever perceive reality as being one fabric woven in the mind?

@Dodoster Yea, it is a paradox. Size has no bearing over any of this. It also seems to be self replicating at the same time. Something can come out of seemingly nothing from nowhere. That's where the common sense needs to be thrown out. Is there really any difference between what is infinitely small from what is infinitely large? Infinity is infinity. *just talking about this moves us out of this dimension. This is why the common sense in not applicable here. Here is an excerpt from Allen Watts The art of contemplation We believe so firmly in the maxim "ex nihilo nihil fit" – "nothing can come out of nothing" – that it is almost impossible for us to see that emptiness is the essential prerequisite for every form of being, unless we can conceive that space has some structure concealed from our senses.

@Dodoster Check out The Banach-Tarski Paradox. It gets pretty deep so common sense doesn't really apply here.

0 contains all numbers from one to infinity because it is empty.

This makes me think of what physics refers to as Calabi-Yau spaces. Infinitely small spaces that are infinite within themselves. But yet they exist in infinite numbers.
