I guess I'm divided exactly there: a part of me is really eager to dismiss reality completely, and the other part wants to use reason to simultaneously ground it in material reality.
That's super cool. How do you do lucid dreaming while awake? -

Where is this one?
What lead you to assume there is one at all?

@Serotoninluv
Can't say for sure there is "Real". It seems as though there is. -

Yes it is all within the subjective experience, but why would I assume it's not somewhere out there too?

Don’t rope me in to your subject-object situation!

You may keep pretending that your subjective actuality is all there is. I won't blame ya, It sure seems that way subjectively.
-
Got it. There's no awareness either - I guess we're back to square one.
-
@Nahm
Why though? Both actuality and logic are absolutely subjective so to speak.
One subjective appearance is trying to to depict another subjective appearance with a third subjective appearance.
Surely if one wanted to disqualify an argument which threatens his worldview it would be easy to dismiss it all as "just thoughts." -
@Nahm
Sure a "Paradox" is the braking point of logic in trying to depict actuality. -
@Nahm
I can't see a difference, there's awareness ok, but what is there but awareness? -
All of which paradoxically means that "Awakening" is the ability to induce a lucid dream state while awake.

Or so it appears from an absolutely solipsistic subjective point of view, which makes total sense.

@The observer
When you dream you take all the imagined things to be real because of the dream state. When you wake up you see that it was imaginary.If you take DMT you can have imaginary things seem real while awake. Like a feeling of love, it will feel real, leading you to conclude that: "reality is love."

What troubles me lately is the function of a brain to turn off the ability to
distinguish reality from imagination. It happens everytime we dream,
because the weird things in a dream would immediately be recognized as not real
in a conscious state, but in order for the dream to keep
going we gotta have the ability to ignore the weirdness - to perceive it as normal and real.
Guess what, the brain is activating that function using its own secreted DMT.Now who's to say that psychedelics don't do just that: turn off the
brain's ability to distinguish imagination from reality. This is a scary
thought because it threatens all the insights we bring back.
Of course one may take enlightenment to be a purely subjective experience which affects
one's own relationship to mental objects and still get all the cool benefits -
wouldn't that be quite reasonable to admit? -
@The observer
Yet a better question, is there consciousness without awareness?
The trouble is that different people use them interchangeably for some reason, and so what is you definition for the two? -
Is Consciousness a stream of Awareness?

@Leo Gura
Why did you not surrender into the Singularity? What did God guide you to do?
Interestingly enough I've also had exact those thoughts many years ago when I wanted to commit suicide, and that's what actually stopped me from pulling the trigger. -

Reality is Love.
The end.
What are the implications of such an insight on one's life?
-
I'm pretty hard-wired for monogamy, and it doesn't seem to shift.
It seems that you have projected a bunch of stuff onto me for no reason. I would look into it. -
Does enlightenment inevitably entail the dissolution of Monogamy? Is it even related?
-
@Leo Gura
Thanks man, that's helpful. Of course I'm gonna keep going deeper on that, it has become a life passion for me.
Don't see anything more worthwhile to do. Keep up your amazing journey too, you are truly an inspiration! -
Just now, Leo Gura said:Not even close, friend.
Not even 1%.
But you're asking good questions.
Should I reach 100% consciousness of it and then go on and write a post in my blog about it?
-
1 minute ago, Leo Gura said:No and yes.
You are God and Love right now, and always, but you are not remotely conscious of that. It's the consciousness of it that matters. If you aren't conscious of it, you aren't Awake and it is not true for you.
It seems as though I am conscious of that. 95% sure.

Very cool! Thank you for sharing.
@Mu_
Just pushing the boundaries of mind. I get what he's saying.
I suspect it might be a grand ideology that seekers buy into, and end up reaching through confirmation bias via altered states. I also suspect that the problem is that I'm too grounded in the materialist paradigm, since I have not had many higher states.
