Can't be helped then lmao. Get a pair of eyes.

Well, that sounds exactly like the consciousness view. Consciousness does not have a bottom, edge, it is not something or previous condition. Consciousness can't be thought too, it is what holds thoughts. The absolute as you say, must be infinite, how is it not infinity? It is open indeed, but that openness is consciousness. Consciousness is just a pointer word for absolute, exactly your view.

But I think the system is the way it is because billionaires and wealth accumulation is so valued. If a person has his or her basic needs met, they wouldn't be forced to work for a billionaire -- which is the present condition for billions of people. If that changes, then billionaires will lose power and influence and their ego would probably feel hurt. If one truly had the power to decide if they want to work for somebody or not then it would screw billionaires. The current system runs on pressure and force -- people have to work for them pretty much. Billionaires thrive on people not having options and pressure.

@Breakingthewall I am trying to understand how your position is fundamentally different from the norm of consciousness only. What do you mean exactly by "limitless"? What substance does limitless have? I feel you are essentially saying the same thing just with different words and in a more verbose way.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Actual wisdom lmao.

It definely ain't getting solved by billionaires existing though. Their money could be put to good use to solve those problems, like can you not see this? The redistributing has never been tried or considered so you cant claim about it. It's not just redistributing, it's redistributing with a vision to work on those problems.

Just because it didn't work doesn't mean it will never work. Maybe get some basic reasoning.

What we got in history wasn't true socialism. Far from it.

Yeah, all that is cool, but is at the top of the pyramid. What about hunger, housing problems, waste problems, pollution, and so on? Maybe a bit like putting the cart before the horse don`t you think？

lol, what can I possibly gain that already dont have by being a billionaire?

No, they can keep the companies and their prestige and recogntion so to speak. But the ammount of power they have is stupid just because they solved some problem. Take their money and feed it back to the system to solve basic problems that exist like hunger, housing and so on.

I agree with you. They solve problems, but that doesnt mean they should earn insanely more than other people. Especially while world hunger and other basic problems exist lmao.

If it is wrong then the whole spirituality and all the people on this forum is wrong, but you are right. But see, I have no strings attached to nobody or thing, I am that open-mindend, so, what is reality according to you? What is your ontology?

There's only one reason for worship: Unconsciousness.

I don't know, it's more like a luminous emptiness. I cannot point where I am, but there's awareness. This awareness seems to be the space where everything is, before attention or objects.

The Object can't be different from the Subject. Nor can an object exist without a Subject. Reality must be awareness(whatever that is) by the simple fact of your experience right now.

Self and no self can be the same thing expressed in different ways. Reality must be consciousness because you are conscious right now. Whatever you mean by unlimited must be consciousness. A field where every experience can be housed seems like a good pointer.

It's crazy! I have no idea where I will end up on this path. But I know that I must continue on. I will meet you there Natasha

Right now I can't, but who knows later haha. I honestly don't know what is possible and impossible. I'm open.

@Natasha Tori Maru More like a new state of consciousness that is becoming the norm for me. It's like I cannot be deceived by anything because I'm rooted in presence that is aware of stuff. I can notice insantly when a thought arise and can decide if I want to entertain it and go in a flow state or if I want to remain just aware. Before thoughts came, and I didn't recognize them, I would just think and think without knowing that "I" am doing this. There's a new non-conceptual layer of awareness ever-present in my experience, and this awareness is transcendent, it feels distant, far away, that's where the detachment comes. This gives great agency and freedom, because it's constant, while every other experience comes and fades away. It's like you actually have a home, and you don't need anything. It's a way to describe. An incredible clarity and sharpness over things. I'm starting to understand where the saying "Yogis never sleep" and why some people who did 5-meo couldn't sleep properly. Awareness is fire I'm telling you haha.

Yes, you have yourself and that's enough. In fact, a woman did exactly that to achieve realization. The world is a bonus, it is not necessary if you are rooted in self. This is of course, very radical and I'm still processing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayu_Khandro

Allright Krishna, let's play!

It's mysterious.

You are conforming to their opinions. You don't know if the movie is truly trash until you see it. Leo Gura giving away authority, now that's something . Even if the whole universe say a movie is trash but you somehow liked something about it, you go and watch it to see if it's true. True rigor

Sir, that is conformity!
