Errr , cos we’re here to discuss Jim’s nondual insights, not your personal search for a girlfriend. But good luck, hope you catch her one day. 🤞

It’s not a separate realisation. It’s the same realisation appearing as a different concept. All these words used to describe the ineffable are known concepts, known by the only knowing there is, which is one singular absolute knowing. Knower and known are One. You are the singular one absolute knowing that cannot be known, because “one knowing’ is by definition solipsistic. This one singular absolute knowing is never separate from the concept known. Concepts know nothing, and that’s what you are. You are the knowing that cannot be known. There’s no other knowing.

A photographic image of you is not you. No one cares what you do but don’t look like. No one cares what you think or believe you look like. Because images are forever changing from one image to another. Will the real you please stand up so we can all have a jolly good look at what you really look like.

Thank you for the laughs. 🤓😎

I think you can describe the real you, but would the real you be in the description? Or in the describer? Or both, maybe there’s two real you’s … maybe. 🤔

Hmm, wait one moment, while I think about that. 🤔 LoL One second please while I have a conversation with myself. Upon looking I see what’s looked upon. It seems I’m right in front of my eyes and not behind them. LoL Hmm, does that mean there’s no me inside me, so where am I exactly, hmm, I must be outside of me. 😬 How did I get outside of my body, hey you, get back in my body, where I can’t see you. LoL

Can you imagine Jim and Tony having a Nondual conversation with each other, what that would sound like? Lol There would be no one there in the other to bounce off. Lol

Yes, the claimer is the blind spot.

Amazing. I’ve always not only liked but loved that one.☝️

Yes, indeed your true north. What’s north of north but more true north. 😂

God is nothing, it’s the same realisation. The world / earth hangs on nothing. God, another word for nothing. God "hangs the earth upon nothing". Given enough rope any one can hang themself.

Quite right, one cannot become conscious of what one already is. That would require one to split into two. Which is absurd. Has one ever tried being two one’s … nope. There’s never more than one of one. The observer and the observed are one. Difficult to separate the observed from the observer. Thankfully no one ever does. If anyone can separate their arm from what’s looking at it, then please feel free to share how it’s done.

Every individual that was ever born is a "blank slate" individual. That’s the only real and true indivisible reality. Everything else is smoke and mirrors.

Lol, it’s astonishingly remarkable isn’t it, how reality is able to construct a theory it hasn't got.

Note to Self Haha, you gotta love them sticky little post-its. ✉️ You did this to yourself. Not you. 😂

The heart is known. It’s real and true. But you already know it’s true and real, you don’t require external validation for what you already know.

Okay, it’s not a problem really, problems belong to those who create the problems. Your response are your own words you have written and are being read here . What is clear to me reading here is that you there are perceiving reality to be by association of your own thinking. I have no intention to deny you your unique expression of reality according to the way you see it. If that is real to you then nothing will change that. I don’t see a problem with the way you view your own perception of reality, since your view is yours to own exclusively, that you are more than entitled to express exactly as you see it as it is being written by yours truly. I’m simply showing my story , and you are showing yours, so be it. It’s all just what’s happening, I guess.

Effortless is effort. Effort is effortless. No thing is thing. Thing is no thing. That’s the paradox. There’s no such thing as efforting carried out by a thing. Except in this conception, which is mentally constructed language. Outside of man made language, reality has no concept of a conceptual thing doing anything. There’s just doing, where doing is done, no doer thereof. This core concept of non-doership, highlights that actions occur naturally through cause and effect without a separate, permanent "self" directing them. These empty principles are what JK and every sage that come before and after have been pointing to since the birth of human conceptual language. A lion cannot tell itself it’s exerting effort when hunting prey. There’s simply hunting prey. I’m totally perplexed and often baffled that you don’t seem to be able to process the idea that seeing though this paradox is what JK and all the other sages and gurus have been hinting at for eons. But maybe I’m just not seeing what you are seeing, and that’s perfectly fine by me. You can only know what you know or see what you see, and no one is denying you your knowledge of these understandings. Okay.👍

Pure clarity.

Very smart. 💯👍 He’s even the author of our faith in him. Amen. 🙏

Interpret that however you want. It’s your prerogative. I interpret JK’s statement to mean there’s no try, there’s either, you do or you don’t , then commit fully without trying. Just be, without claiming, no claim no blame, no fame. I personally like that selfless approach to being.. but that’s just me.

Yes, nihilistic can be positive as well as negative depending on which way you look at it. It doesn’t matter to infinity, infinity is infinite love, and love always wins. Be loved. The beloved is all there is.

I think the point he is making imho, is to do enjoy being of service to others without making it a something to take credit for. Just do it for the love of service to others, and to not try to out stand someone else, in other words don’t put yourself above others because even the road sweeper or toilet cleaner is equal to a brain surgeon. Those that work together, stay together, so to speak. Collaboration builds trust and connection. That’s got to be a good idea.

Absolutely 👍
