When asked about this topic, Sri Anandamayi Ma said: Only you exist, you and you alone. Truly, you are contained in everything. Again, you are indeed God Itself, In all infinity is God and no other (Breathes) I alone am.

How do you know that? Another told you?

I'm saying all is consciousness. Every particle of your mother is made out of pure empty consciousness.

Yes, it's that simple. The difficulty lies in realising: I am Consciousness, the Self, God and Infinity.

The emphasis is in consciousness, oh God! Doesn't matter if it's one or it fragments in trillions. Consciousness is the whole Point.

There's just One Consciousness and it's living through us all

The main logical error I see in the OP is the misunderstanding of Infinity. It shows that one hasn't become infinite and is just inferring from second hand. Why? Because ironically, awakening to infinity would show you solipsism, so that's already cleared. But most importantly, Infinity is not anything goes. This is a childish and neophyte notion. What I've been discovering more and more lately is that Infinity has a sublime logic to itself, a way of being and existing. Human ways of cognising infinity are less than perfect, only Infinity is Absolutely Intelligent and Perfect, which is your very own essence. Your logic goes this way: Like infinite means anything goes, then actually this present experience is made out of bananas. That's a possibility inside infinity, there you have it, I debunked that consciousness is the only substance by virtue of the logic of Infinity. This is quite stupid. The essence and design of Reality needs to be a certain way for it to happen. Consciousness needs to be in place for Infinity. Truth or Absolute Existence must be in place for Infinity. Intelligence, Creativity, Omnipotence, Omnipresence, Omniscience... Must be in place for Infinity and Reality to happen. It's from this place that all multiplicity and "edge cases" and "anything goes" happens, as this Universal Sentient Reality limits and fragments itself in a cosmic dance.

If Solipsism where to be true, how would you verify it? What is the nature of other? Can other exist in Infinity?

Could Leo's book trigger a new scientific paradigm? An insightful book can survive over the ages. It def has that potential and many others. I'm intrigued to read it when it's ripe.

Everybody’s satisfaction is my satisfaction. Everybody’s happiness is my happiness. Everybody's misery is my misery. You and I are two persons and yet you and I are one; and the gap between the two of us this also is myself ~ Sri Sri Anandamayi Ma.

Why would you trust Leo or anyone to tell you the truth. That's not how truth-seeking works, with that epistemology 99,9999% of times you end up with falsehood and illusion, it just seems to be the rare case were you tripped over a pile of gold. Oh please tell me this is fake gold! You only know it's true Gold when you bite it; only you can test it for yourself.

That is so

If you see content breaking the forum guidelines, use the "Report post" function that appears. The mod team gets notified and we check it. That's the formal mechanism and works fine. Just saying because many users are unaware of this function and we really take the time to check it.

I'm sure someone did it. Absence of limits means, that is possible.

I talk this way because of the limitations of language. Collapsing all multiplicities ends in an Infinite Singularity of Consciousness. There's no way around consciousness, because existence is consciousness. It's such a simple point. You need to recognise what is existence. The point is if you recognise Oneness then you have to see what is the one substance? you'll realize it's consciousness. You really don't know the substance of reality, see that. It's important to realise this facet of substance or essence of reality, the groundless ground.

Forget past prophets. Just a few decades ago Satya Sai Baba was manifesting objects out of thin air. Aren't you aware of it? You haven't done your homework. There are many others as well. But your mind will come with excuses for why that is fake and impossible. Or maybe all videos are fake after all.

Aaaaaaaaaand you are conscious of all of that Doesn't matter the content or the centre or whatever, you're always consciousness. This is obvious, all day long, always, for eternity. Absence of limits it's just a property of Consciousness. Why? Because you can become conscious of whatever. Everything is inside your consciousness. But this will not convince you. The point is to see the whole fabrication of reality for what it is, pure consciousness in front of your eyes. This whole 3D field of experience is the state and space of consciousness. All are sensations and hence every configuration is possible (absence of limitations). It's like an infinite 360° 4k plasma TV. It can play anything on it. That's consciousness, this is the film!

@Breakingthewall I'm surprised someone can get this deep without realising the substance of Reality is Consciousness. I don't think more conversation is going to help us. I'm pretty happy with where we've arrived so far. It's an awakening so nothing will make it but that. I'm happy to understand better your position and I'm in my view it's quite advanced. It just has that serious hole of misunderstanding consciousness and God, regarding the rest it's pretty fine. I would understand not getting God, it's quite rare and difficult, I'm barely starting, but def consciousness you should be grasped as the essential nature of existence. To realize that all your description is actually pointing to Consciousness.

@Breakingthewall What do you say Reality is? What's your ontology? Matter, energy, ...?

Saying that Consciousness morphs into things is not saying they are unreal, it's saying how reality works. Or how you frame it afterwards, you could say things are relative to their particular form. What I'm saying is that actually consciousness is God. There's a saying from Sri Anandamayi Ma that goes like this: The point of spirituality is for God to manifest in its Godly form. What does this mean? God is always already all that is, therefore attainment is but an appearance. At the same time, it's God recognising its own essence as pure Infinite Consciousness what constitutes the essence of spirituality. God can take all Infinite forms, but very rare are those which are like a mirror in mirrors, showing your own infinite and absolute nature. Do you see the dynamic? Don't fall into the trap of horizontal ever-present reality. Yes there's that facet of Awakening. There's also the facet of Peak Infinite Godly Consciousness. Just saying, all those who've realized it say it's the best. I've seen it all, nothing beats God. Infinite Consciousness is what you thought the end of spirituality, when it happens you realise: oh... It's only the beginning

Love it

This is the most male commentary I've read about pick up in my life There is a correlation, that's clear, I just loved the wording, it felt so funny.

After a long time, finally I've tried a new psychedelic. So I'm happy to share the experience. I took a ginger tea before the experience and got an intuitive feeling of when I did enough digestion so that the come up and plug would be gentle. The initial come up is similar to mushrooms, yet it was more "pure", less background noise so to speak or messiness, it had this natural initial vibes and so it keep going up. What I discovered then is the spirit of the psychedelic. I don't know how other people encounter this but for me there are two types of psychedelics, one's which have a personality or spirit and others which dont. Without entering into too much depth and comparison, I totally felt that in the first 2h I was guided and in communion with what felt like the pure version of mushrooms and jungle/nature like energy. I'm aware that this is a fabrication of consciousness, as all of reality, but it's a nice experience, it felt loving and guiding. As the trip kept getting deeper, it was interesting to see that the mushroom vibe slowly drifted and the DMT vibe came more and more prominent, visuals went sharp, crisp, colourful and bright. At this point I was meditating and got into very interesting energetic spaces. I hadn't visually tripped for long, so I had to rearrange the visual dimension inside my consciousness and tapped into my hyperbolic alien mind. It felt like rearringing a room after quite some time without doing it or like solving a dancing 5D puzzle, that included: body, mind, energy, space, sound, light and consciousness. I felt my Mind interconnecting deeper and having synesthesia and other interconnecting phenomena. At this point I brokethrough into Universal Consciousness, which means that I become fully aware of all of Reality as Pure Consciousness and then it gets locked in this state-space. It felt nice and while I have access to this state both in other psychedelics and sober, 4-AcO-DMT gave it's unique flavour to this facet and I feel grateful for it. Having finished the work, I went to my computer and checked my personal word file of genius from all fields. It's so fascinating and nourishing to do this practice while tripping, my consciousness connected with each mind and walked through their whole psyche, like tasting an ice cream and then integrated and awakened parts of my brain. It's like mirroring neurons on steroids. I watched spiritual transmissions as well, which were very powerful to stretch my consciousness into new states and facets that I'm not tapping commonly. There really is no end into the variety and expressions consciousness can take, it's truly fascinating. My aim is to explore them as much as possible, what I call the domain of Conscious Experiences, with the final aim of making my consciousness mature in requisite variety and ever more Infinite. In this line, I truly find mirrors fascinating. I have come to the conclusion that the most mystical physical object that exists are mirrors. Literally, a mirror is pure reflecting consciousness, it's so profound that it brings me to tears just writing about it. We take mirrors so much for granted, and every time I trip... I'm just blown away by the power of mirrors. So yes, lots of inner work, balancing and self exporation happened. I liked the visual component (which in the past I thought as distracting) to be so useful in expressing the visual dimension of some face of reality or your psyche. For example, you can work with a trauma, but with a visual inducing psychedelic, you SEE the trauma, or you see parts of your brain, their inner wiring so to speak. The same with awakenings, you may have the insight, the energy, the state, the space, the consciousness; now adding the visualization of it makes it even more holistic. At this point, I was getting so conscious that my body started overheating and my nervous system was being taxed. I kinda cooled down, but it was quite intense, the gates in my mind and consciousness were open and everything was flowing, so I just brokethrough the limit of body resistance. It was very profound actually. Although after doing it, I still decided to bring grounding energy to make my conscious experience more whole and sublime. It's like being a chef in consciousness, you get to mold it and add more salt, or sugar, play with the tastes, shapes, spaces, feelings, etc. As much as your ability allows to. The comedown was sweet and very gradual, almost unnoticeable till it was evident. The interesting part was to see the progression of the substance, I really enjoyed the pure mushroom like come up, its loving spirit took me by the hand from baseline human consciousness into higher consciousness, eventually so we merged into selfless crystalline DMT space, unificating my whole consciousness and making it absolute. So absolutely recommend it, the duration for me is perfect, long enough to work but not jarring and exhausting. It's pure clear and stable, I like its workings and personality. 4-AcO-DMT is certainly profound and suited for Spiritual Work.
