That’s cool you’re able to spot the difference. I don’t really feel much difference between different foods, I suppose it’s because my baseline health is very good, good digestion and I eat healthy in general so I maintain a baseline level of feeling good (or neutral) all the time.

Exactly

Exactly, consciousness in the way OP writes means duality. I heard Rupert Spira say if I remember correctly something along the lines of there being two steps in awakening. First consciousness awakens to itself, but that’s still duality, then it merges with everything, something like that. Don’t know what that’s all about. How can there be a “nothing” (consciousness) separate from everything

Yea

Just be polite and don’t contribute to the conflict. Not much more you can do

Once during sleep paralysis vibrational state a female voice told me suffering is love so I believe it . Nature of reality is love it’s said .

thanks

I’d say I agree

Many people haven’t even been presented the idea that the self could be “illusion” so it’s hard to say how they would respond to it. More people should hear about it so that they can make a choice whether to pursue enlightenment or not.

You don’t see others and the world in an objective way, you see your own mental projections as an overlay on the world, as a lens, as a judgement of everything , so in that sense you’re living inside your own mind. But your mind is part of the collective mind, so it’s also shared with others, you have similar mental projections like others do. So you are in a sense alone with your mind, your mental projections. Doesn’t mean other people are mental projections, but it acts like an overlay on them, on the “objective” world. Dissolving this means dissolving yourself

Okay I see.

What do you mean? Like how your loved ones progress determines yours

I suppose this will be a loooong road. I’m steadily increasing my meditation time. My goal is to eventually do something like 4-5 hours a day. How about you?

I just did that lol😂 I don’t know if I would call that boredom, maybe it is now you say it. It’s so hard to not look at the phone from time to time

Same.

👽

I would agree. We are made to interact with the world, I’m just built different.

I didn’t mean you were I like it too when I can talk filter less so that includes being able to talk about deeper things

Yea that’s kind of what I wrote about in another reply. My guess is that they are the boring ones…

I cant be bored because I enjoy my own mind (when I’m more connected to myself and can even hear my thoughts). I’m guessing you and the average person is more outwardly focused so affected by outside circumstance so you derive joy from outward circumstances which is totally normal so you’re bored when something interesting isn’t happening externally that you can involve your mind in

My guess is that it’s felt when enlightenment happens or awakening

This I can’t answer . I wonder the same

I never understood boredom either. Pretty much never felt it

The kind of love that is truth is not the conventional love, it’s unconditional and includes even the untruthfulness. Intuitively

It’s one thing to talk about these thing, another to become directly conscious of how everything is the same substance, that’s my goal
