I don’t think thoughts are in the brain in the same context electricity isn’t in a lightbulb. And yet a lightbulb won’t illuminate until electricity makes contact with the bulb. I think thoughts are free flowing everywhere at once and only become things when the brain tunes into them. Nobody owns a single thought, or has originated a single thought of their own, I think they’re all borrowed, as everybody is aware of the exact same thoughts, since absolutely every thing known owes it’s source to thought. Thoughts then must be some infinite field that is everywhere at once, they are neither in nor outside of any body because a body is a thought thing, that’s everything and none locatable. . Sounds weird I know. This is just an idea of mine, I intuitively think thoughts are an infinite field that has no exact location, and I’m not claiming this to be accurately true, I mean, it’s just an Idea but could be totally wrong,

@UnbornTao Okay.

Yes. I agree.

Yes, informed by their ego who pretends to be enlightened. The Trip dissolves the ego, but just like any trip, the trip comes to an end, the return to the ego. It's a two way return ticket. 😲As above, so below.

That's a good idea kieranperez . Once you realise you don't exist it automatically follows that other you's don't either. So you let them be, and not even be, as there's no one to be, there's just pure being. Not ascending, not descending, just simply being.

Aye! It's♾️with an untwistable twist.

Do you mean it’s not a single player game? 😉

Just as we can be conscious of pain. We can be conscious of death too, can you shake the idea that we are conscious of death. What I mean by conscious of death is the appearance, disappearance, and reappearance of the sense of self. Notice that both the sense of self and the sense of pain arise and fall, and there’s something aware of this arising and falling that never arises and falls? There’s something that isn’t even born that can die, and that we can be conscious of that something.

Surly though intelligent infinity would first have needed to KNOW the concepts “misalignment” and “mistake” before there’s any recognition that neither concept could ever exist for real?

Yes I understand that. 👍 The weight is lifted when I consider there’s just indifferent impersonal “suffering happening” compared to “I am suffering “ Awakening doesn’t necessarily mean suffering ends though. Even an awakened one can experience suffering. Anyone who is conscious of knowing is able to reflect. So although trauma grounds itself deep within the mind/body mechanism, we can recognise that we can starve it of any more attention. Or, we can trauma bond with our own body. It doesn’t matter, it’s all just happening so there’s no need to repress or avoid, rather just allow and integrate, by surrender and to fully accept that nothing that is happening is ever personal. To recognise fully that I’m not my thoughts or mind, I am behind, Yes, and knowing the difference certainly lightens the burden when knowing you are conscious of all your projections and therefore the only one responsible for them.

Death is a concept known that knows nothing. You are a concept known in this conception that knows nothing. You are both everything and nothing 'knowing yourself' infinitely for eternity.

There’s nothing wrong with believing or beliefs. When humans are agreeing with each other’s theories they are in belief that these theories are true. Belief belongs to the dream of separation. And the dream is all that can be known. Nonduality is still a belief, it’s the belief that all theories have no credible basis in reality, and that reality is basically unknowable. Belief changes everything to something, even while it’s actually nothing.

Solipsism is a description nothing is describing. Solipsism is simply nothing being everything. There are myriads of ways to describe the ways of nothingness. And they’re all identical. Same yet different.

It’s said no news is good news. Could be translated as no knowing is a good thing. So, one being aware of their aliveness, will ultimately feel like suffering, which is not a good. In fact, it’s pretty awful to be a sentient creature with a nervous system. Most people live in complete denial that in knowing you are conscious is not all it’s cracked up to be. I personally struggle with this situation with a kind of silent desperation. Ecclesiastes 9:5, states that "the dead know nothing" and are not conscious of anything.

When you wake up from having a dream you realise everyone in your dream was in your awareness and that those people didn’t have an awareness of their own. That’s what’s happening in waking life. You are the one mind of God dreaming the entire external world. It’s not a “someone” who is a solipsist. Solipsist is just another way of recognising the one mind of God. ( Pure Indivisible Awareness ) The Universe is Awareness. Awareness is God. You are Awareness dreaming you are a person. God is the only being that truly exists. God cannot be the characters dreamt because they are seen looked upon physical things, whereas Awareness is never a physical thing seen. The idea “I am a solipsist” is just another dreamt character, it’s not real. The real solipsist is the dreamer of all that’s unreal, which is GOD ) It’s very simple to function like this because it’s absolutely everything God is doing. Effortlessly and Unconditionally.

Words.

'You are a function of what the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is a function of what the whole ocean is doing.'

This video is such an awesome insight. I’ve intuited same, since the days of being small child. I can see Leo’s eyes welling up while expressing this. He speaks straight from the heart. Amazing stuff! 👍

What appears and disappears within truth is also truth, the contents of consciousness and consciousness are the same consciousness. I don’t think you have understood this simple knowing yet.

That’s still your belief that there’s a your belief..

The 1000 words is just part of the illusion. The illusion is all that can be known, it’s all just part of the play, unavoidably. 🙂 Someone starts the ball rolling, and rolling balls are bound to pick up dust. If James wants to be the opaque invisible then he shouldn’t roll the ball, that’s being the opposite of what he wants.

But the knowledge that is the biggest illusion is still a real illusion. That’s the whole point of the illusion, is to appear real. Why go to the cinema to watch a movie already knowing the characters on the screen are not real? Sorry James but you enjoy the movie you are in that’s why you continue to watch it, rather than try to escape it via suicide. Escaping the movie is also God escaping the movie. It’s all God. God already knows the movie isn’t real, that suicide isn’t real. God already knows the movie because God created it.

Haha, I’ll continue to show James how ridiculous it is to play the game of wack-a-mole. The truth of infinite consciousness once recognised becomes a blasphemy when trying to explain it in a relative context. ...once awakening occurs which can be spontaneous in many people, either continue to live in the illusion, or remain forever silent. Can’t do both at the same time. This is a typical James error. James like to continue playing the illusion and then gets all cocky and defensive when the other illusions join the game.

God realisation/ recognition is unborn , undying. What death, when you already know it’s illusory?

But you are interacting with other members. So you might as well be interacting with empty thin air because in your own words, words hold no truth. So again, I invite you to tell yourself what WORD can describe the nameless IT ? If there’s no word then stop using words. Show us how to stop using words to reach the unnameable? Why do you keep descending from your unnameable position, it is too lonely at the top for you?
