  1. Ultimately is permanent/impermanent a duality? I’m really stuck on why form needs to be impermanent. Can’t there be a form that subsists forever and ever and doesn’t “die”? If you say no then that seems limiting to infinity. Everything should be possible including a permanent form. Also why does change require “death”? Couldn’t there just be change with forms constantly morphing and evolving without the full stop called death?
  2. It is fixed! Thanks Leo.
  3. All good with being patient. I’d just like to know that an issue has been identified and is being looked into. Otherwise the next time I get logged out I may never have access again
  4. Has this issue been addressed? I couldn’t log in all night and most of today. Finally had to go into incognito mode on chrome to sign in
  5. Same- used to be able to browse the forum without logging in
  6. Thank you
  7. Hi- sorry didn’t know where to post this. Is anyone else constantly getting EX144 errors when trying to sign into the forum now? It is highly annoying. I’ve tried three different browsers and finally had to go to a fourth to log in this time. Can someone fix these issues? I tried submitting a technical support request but that wouldn’t go through either
  8. I’d like to explore this topic further. If “God” is truly infinite/unbounded then that means no limitations. Therefore “dreaming up” an immortal being should be 100% possible, otherwise you are placing limits. Now maybe what we think of as immortality is not accurate- maybe this being would be able to morph into something else/dissolve its form when needed then reappear. So many possibilities.
  9. Why does every natural body (human and animal) die? If we’re not truly the body or mind then why the charade? Can’t consciousness come up with something more creative or original?
  10. Is permanent vs. impermanent a duality we must ultimately collapse? Oftentimes I get confused or thrown off by the ideas of birth and death. Why must every animal or plant that “appears” on Earth seem to appear to be born then die? Ultimately am I creating a position that permanent=good and impermanent=bad? Want to get people’s thoughts on this tricky subject.
  11. Why do “human individuals” fear death if there truly are no individuals that exist? It’s a universal fear.
  12. In many corners of nonduality (I.E Rupert Spira) deep sleep and death are often compared. It’s explained that your “true self”/consciousness loses all the extra layers (relationships, desires, personal stories) in deep sleep and also in death. Of course deep sleep is temporary- it isn’t feared because you have the expectation of waking up again in the morning. Why are deep sleep and death talked about by many as a way someone returns to their true self? Doesn’t that sound dualistic? There was never a someone to return to a true self- it’s all THIS. Also why is death talked about as no problem because it’s akin to deep sleep? As I said before you expect (most of the time) to return from deep sleep. In death we truly don’t know what occurs but returning to the physical life as you know it isn’t in the cards.
  13. Is that the only possibility though? Creation and destruction? Seems limiting. Or is that maybe just what we experience in our human reality? I have to imagine in some other dimension it could be different. All words in the end- I know
  14. I might have been a little confusing and unclear before in why I was even pondering this. All in all, it doesn’t really matter to me on a personal level no. It matters to me on how THIS/the all is. If THIS only creates “beings” that must be born and must die- isn’t that kind of unoriginal and boring? It clashes with the idea that THIS is limitless and ultimate/full potential. THIS/the Ultimate can’t imagine a form that doesn’t go through the same old story of being born and dying? That’s what is hanging me up right now
