Nulligma Formal Definition of Nulligma: Nulligma (noun) From Latin “nullus” (none) + Greek “ainigma” (riddle, mystery, enigma) That which lies beyond the realm of one’s conscious knowledge or ignorance; a domain of reality or truth one is entirely unaware of not knowing. It denotes a blind spot so fundamental that the absence of awareness itself goes unnoticed. Examples (some AI-assisted): I used to think I understood my parents, but turns out there was a whole nulligma behind their struggles. Bro out here acting like he’s woke, but he’s lost in a nulligma, doesn't even know 5-MeO-DMT exists, can you believe it? That moment when life slaps you and you realize: "Oh... I’ve been living inside a nulligma." She gave me that “oh honey” look — turns out I was knee-deep in a nulligma. My teenage self thought love was simple. Ha. Sweet summer nulligma. It's not denial or stupidity, it’s just that... humans have premium subscription to nulligma. Nulligma: when you’re so lost you think you’re on track. Spiritual journey, first psychedelic: " I’m enlightened." 10 trips after: "My consciousness is gonna crack if I discover one nulligma more." God is the final Nulligma.

I'm currently writing my thesis as well. I love the pressure. I have to say that I feel much more relieved after two weeks of working through the index with my tutor. Now it's just about filling in the gaps but the skeleton is rock solid. Still a lot to write though and with all the academic paraphernalia. Although there's something about writing precisely and concisely that brings me a lot of joy. Although perfectionism rubs me the wrong way when I'm writing, it gets almost neurotic. Yet the end result is super satisfying.

The problem is that science assumes reality to be finite, given that assumption the explanatory offload, despite unsatisfactory, should eventually make all pieces come together and hold each other. However, given that Reality is infinite, this process is futile to grasp the whole, as the finite keeps discovering more paths within Infinite Universal Mind. There will always be new pieces and the centre will give the illusion of relative stability but the edge is always groundless and it goes on forever.

How come is there gonna be up without down? Enjoy the rollercoaster, it's fun! This is my approach to life, I really enjoy the peaks and the valleys. There's a beauty in contrast. That's what loving life means, not to change its nature, but to love its nature. -
This is absolutely brilliant. This statement right here logically debunks the myth that science "eventually" will solve everything. This is outstanding epistemological and philosophical science work. It's a pity this will not hit the public at large. I feel like it should be published in a scientific magazine, it sounds ridiculous but this is the real conversation scientist should be having if they really cared about truth and science. Hats off to you Leo. Exquisite read.

To realize God and Infinity. The rest of answers are either tangents, midway or facets of the first statement. -
I was asking myself the other month what is an alpha woman? In this context, would men prefer an alpha woman or a beta woman? Maybe the contrast here is what men consider an alpha men to be VS what women consider it to be; and viceversa. I'd say that for me is who could fuck me up in a fight and who is the leader. For women would be those two plus who'd be a good father.

I'll explain you a little story. Some days ago my cat was having troubles with hairballs. We always try to help. In these situations, a home remedy that is commonly used and was tested to work is olive oil. As usually, we gave it to him but this time the cat happened to be breathing just in the moment when more oil than needed was poured. The result was a pneumonia due to the left lung being filled with that liquid, admitted into hospital for days, thousand euros and battling for his life. The bottom line is that I almost killed my cat trying to help him, out of selfless love. So try reflecting on this counter intuitive nature of intentions, actions and results. This may happen when you open the "clinic". -
It's hard to feel the breeze in the midst of a tornado. Get the basics down, have a job, master something, serve people, build the foundation. From this place, you have built protective walls for your survival so that your inner flower can blossom. Then the fragrance of it will guide you. The latter cannot guide the former for it needs the former to land. See? Real world decision must be taken from a place of knowing yourself and your values, to strategically satisfy your needs and overcome survival forces. In this way you'll build a nice infrastructure for your deeper being to blossom. You need to create the right ecosystem. It's hard to say. It's a skill you master more than an answer. Moreover, both have advantages and limitations. A good rule of thumb is to know if it comes from an expanded sense of being or from a contracted emotionally influenced state. Surely it can be closed and open, it's like a camera, more or less light can come in, to all infinite spectrums of bright, obscure and colourful rainbows. The key insight you need to understand is the following. There is a human, you should know your human self and develop it everyday to its full potential while enjoying the journey. Setting the right conditions for Awakening. There is Consciousness, it should be raised, explored and mastered. Eventually the breakthrough to Infinite Consciousness will happen. These two paths should be walked simultaneously and life without one or the other is incomplete. Some authors like to point out the need to clean the psychic baggage as well. Sometimes called shadow work, therapy and so on.

I like to use my body in new and creative ways. Try walking funny, do movements you've never tried, pick objects and play around with them, go grab a weird stick and try to balance it in your finger, play games, laugh, go to comedy shows, play with children and animals, experiment with movement coaching, listening music... Whatever your frame is go outside it, be curious, be goofy, be playful.

Regarding the last post on why Reality Cannot Be Defined. I'd like to bring the point that language's most deceitful metaphysical assumption is that definition is possible. That's the reason why language ultimately cannot reach Truth. So scientists use language whether it's verbal, numeric or code, without acknowledging the limitations of definition and framing. No thing of reality can encapsulate another thing unless it is itself the thing. For reality is like a puzzle where each piece is unique and all fit into each other in a tesselation manner. So we are playing the game of 7 differences and in this chain being built up by resemblances and by layers of representations and interpretations, the mind divorces from actuality into conceptuality. At the end of the day, I believe we should became aware of this limitations and to properly frame language, definition and science while we use them. So the problem isn't in any of these intrinsically, but in not having the awareness to realize the epistemic and metaphysic limits of anything less than Infinity.

I'm encountering the following problem, I've learnt to remain silent and keep things to myself but what happens when, while interacting, people directly ask me for my understanding on a certain topic. It happens to be the case that my views are quite different than those from regular folks, so I struggle to present my perspective so that it reaches the other mind. Let's say we talk about sexism. The other person is stage green and feels so advanced for deconstructing male chauvinism yet I point out that genre/role deconstruction in this sense finally reaches a rock bottom and society will have to deal with that. In fact being that ground, the original primordial cause from which, like dust, social construction was built upon for millennia. Yet I get accused of being sexist. I'm aware this is the pre-trans fallacy and little more can be done. My point is that right now, I've invested years of philosophical inquiry to have an accurate understandings of many facets of reality, while most people operate by group-think. I'm really contemplating how I can have conversations when people ask me directly. I definitely make them think twice about their whole worldview but it also comes with dangers to my persona and the challenge to work through many mind layers of the other person, or even worse, a group. Do you have any advice? How do you deal with these situations? On the one hand, I don't wanna conform but on the other I can't be blunt either. How do you strike the right balance in these situations?

I'll contemplate this question for the next decade. This blog post about Power Inequality is reaching a very serious, holistic and nuanced threshold. I have the intuition that if you keep pushing there's gonna be a breakthrough in your understanding and a precipitation of insights into your mind as politics, psychology and spirituality interconnect into a macro understanding of human nature. It's giving me T3 vibes, the across the board application is truly remarkable.

In my case, I've tried al three options. Where do you live? If you're in Europe check pages from the Netherlands. If you're in the US, check webpages from Canada. It's not that hard, one month of work and you'll get all the details down.

You are also a finite human. -
@ExploringReality How did it go?

Davino replied to Loveeee's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Or maybe, you're grasping reality for what is is. Maybe consciousness can morph itself into all perspectives, experiences, forms, people, stars, colours, sensations, space, etc. Consciousness is Solipsistic in the sense that only itself exists, this reality we mirror it in the relative domain via communication by perspectives. My initial point was that for me it's quite easy to close myself in a bathroom and bask in my Solipsistic nature. The more advance solipsism is to see the nature of reality while talking with a friend, with your mum, in the middle of a party dancing with everybody. That's the beauty. I've put Solipsism to the test and each time it blossoms into a more holistic understanding of the Absolute nature of Reality. -
