@tuku747 ok I see thanks

What does inertia mean in this spiritual context I keep seeing that word. Does it mean like the physics definition so unwillingness to change or something

To feel safe maybe? I don’t know if I’m getting you . But I’ve been thinking about similar things. I thought how when we are young and our sense of self is forming, the appearance is maybe unknown and this sense of separation is scary, so the mind creates this conceptual self and reality that we get attached to to form a sense of safety or something. If I am making any sense.

I was thinking along those lines too

Pain is still pain and it’s suffering but someone could have a positive mindset still and live with it but they still suffer the pain isn’t it so.

What does it mean to accept suffering? Let’s say someone has a painful disease , accepting it doesn’t lessen the pain .

Sounds reasonable

Ok I see. It does correspond a bit to my own experiences .

Maybe Leo in a video mentioned them being red, and that’s why op is asking about it, that’s what I thought

There’s probably a mixture of them, mostly orange and even green in some rarer cases, don’t know either why they’d be considered red, although some might be desensitized and a bit aggressive to be able to handle such industry mentally , and are in it due to not having many options so being socioeconomically vulnerable and thus very survival oriented, so perhaps that’s how they could fit red

Thanks that was beautifully written. When you “see” it naturally is it like spontaneous openings or do you have some techniques or is it your everyday “state” (not the best word choice maybe) nowadays ? When you say you “try” to open how do you do it?

@Breakingthewall ok interesting are you able to “see” /tap into this naturally in your everyday life or do you need some substance ? I’ve seen you writing different things about it.

I don’t know but isn’t it ultimately so that there’s no difference between existence and non existence, and there is only a reality and something happening when there is a sense of self that is conscious of it

I meant more when I think of consciousness I think of duality so a self being the one who is conscious of .. something . So that being the “illusion” of separation so to speak . But maybe it’s just a different use of the word.

Ok I understand. But “infinity that is conscious of itself” is that not describing a self? Isn’t consciousness associated with a self?

What do you mean by this

Smelling them is nice too it can be weirdly comforting

One time during sleep paralysis vibrations I heard this lady voice say something alluding to how even the worst suffering is love and I don’t think I hallucinated that must have been some spirit so freaky. Don’t understand why everything is called love it doesn’t sit right with me ofc from the human pov

Idk about that stuff honestly

High iq doesn’t necessarily mean high self awareness. What I mean by retarded is someone with some condition so they’re probably less self aware idk tho

How come

Aren’t people with that low iq clinically retarded (if that’s the right word)? So they probably have low self awareness too, which is a factor to awakening I’d say

All that sounds like over complicated conceptualizing . I don’t know tho

Why would something like IQ that is like this logical pattern solving intelligence have anything to with awakening? awakening in terms of permanent no self I believe is incredibly rare I believe the so called “neo advitans” or however it’s spelled when they say there is nothing the illusion of self can do to achieve it it’s spontaneous. Even most people who try to awaken in that way don’t . when it comes to just detaching the self from the mind entirely that is due to self awareness which makes you hate your existence because you’ll be aware of the tension of the mental self. That will lead to that kind of awakening but the total non dual is another thing entirely and seems almost impossible

Infinite memory of what? Your past reincarnations or? If there is such
