Just watched Inside Out 2 It's not a masterpiece but it's watchable and actually has some good points. It definitely makes you reflect and have a good time.

All desire is for desirelessness / freedom from desire But what can give freedom from desire?

@Javfly33 You seek everything, a desire for all that exists. Infinity

Existence

It's s trap when it becomes new conditionings, new paradigms, more ego, more distortion, more delusion, more stories and speculation... It's a tool for liberation when it's used for contrast, for feedback, for new perspectives, because of overflowing love...

As you say, sometimes is the background feeling that what happens is not enough. That's many times the case for me. Once seeking is deeply examined, one earns a profound sense of clarity. It is indeed a very good sign that the whole mechanism of seeking and desire to Awaken, discover Truth or whatever is profoundly questioned. Usually it goes like a pendulum between profound seeking and deep abiding. The balance between concentration and relaxation, effort and effortlessness, striving and letting go...

Yes, that can be meaningful but everyone has it's own way and you'll share your path with them as long as certain conditions are met.

I do But it can become it's own trap Also consider that what I most want to communicate can't be put into words. Some meals, one can only eat by itself. What can be said is already being said.

Yes, I've also had to learn it the hard way. I'm sure this is very common.

Why do you care? Make sure to deconstruct any teacher complex, saviour, healer or wise man identities. They'll limit your Awakenings and rob you of your peace. Trying to convince others to your point of view is a sure recipe for frustration. I know where you are coming from and your good intentions but the more you advance the less people that will be there. Enjoy your meal, no need to share it, they may not like it. Truth is an acquired taste.

@An young being It can mean multiple things. He answered to cessation as full dissolution, which was my question.

@Water by the River Thanks that's useful for my sense making. I know you recommend mahamudra and a book I can't recall about the one taste. Could you offer me some guidance regarding meditation? As well as some of your own personal experience and milestones in your path. I've tried many here and there but for the moment the expansive and present ones seem to work best for me. I particularly enjoy the non localisation that meditation can give. Very peaceful. My objective for meditation is increasing my Awareness of the present moment. I'm a seasoned psychonaut so I'm not interested in the peaks of meditation but on a practice that translates into ordinary life and that can be even sustained in the midst of it.

@JoshB Yes man I get you. The point is that for them to make sense of you they have to deconstruct their whole worldview, which would take months and years. Imagine you had to deconstruct all your nationality, spirituality and sexuality to understand a friend. Would you do it? Otherwise, you are a weirdo or an outsider at the best from their POV. Which is fine I mean, whatever. You should have a solid character and mature presence though, for metaphysics to hold properly. If not they'll think you are a nutcase. I just don't talk about metaphysics with normies unless they ask a good question or I'm tripping with them. It's also good if you can deliver mystical experiences or glimpses by your presence and energy, that can help. Also consider that women are more receptive to all of these, men are not.

As you love your own body, so regard everyone as equal to your own body. When the Supreme Experience supervenes, everyone's service is revealed as one's own service. Call it a bird, an insect, an animal or a man, call it by any distinction you please, one serves one's own Self in every one of them. ~ Sri Anandamayi Ma

@What Am I Thanks for sharing, that's useful. I'm kinda getting very Awake in my day to day, moment to moment, breath to breath, blink to blink experience. All sensation in Consciousness I feel like meditation is a right move for me now. I feel like meditation is happening by itself and I wanna nurture that inner process in the same way I did when Kundalini started playing with me. That's where I'm at and feel more united with the meditation vibe honestly

@CoolDreamThanks How was the experience? Would you be so kind of describing it to me moment to moment? How did you know: Oh yes, this is clearly a cessation.

@What Am I Could you provide the resource? I'm very open to external sources regarding cessation. However, I would be concerned if nobody had ever experienced a cessation in the forum.

Ego Purpose

Yes, it's a good point. Trump definitely has a toxic life purpose.

@Keryo Koffa Yes, I agree. She says that the mechanism is the same, which is true. A knife can prepare you dinner or kill your mother.

This Forum is a Solipsistic Orgy What you describe is just stream entry. Once being becomes mature and deep and you abide in it... Beingness becomes consciousness. When Consciousness matures and becomes stable it becomes Pure Consciousness. (Dream Realization usually comes around here) When Pure Consciousness matures and becomes stable it becomes Infinity. And so on so forth...

@Princess Arabia It is so. Where is the problem? I'm fine with what you explain, it's the mechanism of thought and desire.

I once become so Awake that I thought my eyes would pop out of my skull

Does the end justify the means?

@Javfly33 The timeless takes time to be realized, despite being always already the case. Common trap: -But it's already the case! +Yes! -Then I'm already Awake! +No! -How can it take time to realize what I already am? + It is exactly so. The point is for infinity to manifest in its infinite form.
