  1. “Real” can only be meaningful in relation to its opposite which is meaningless. So ONE is neither real or unreal. Because there is no one because there’s no other than one. There’s nothing making one real and nothing making one unreal.
  2. How can one everything exist. How could one know it’s one? For one to know it exists this one would have to split into two, into knower and known. This would appear as a knowledge of this one splitting in two. And yet if there is only one and only one, then there would be nothing splitting in two, there would be nothing to divide the one into two. So that which is one must always be changeless. The changeless couldn’t change because there’d be nothing to change it. By changing nothing, nothing changes. That why Einstein said reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
  3. So does that mean, according to your logical reasoning the ultimate, unchanging reality (Brahman) is real? Or, is there no such concept known of an ultimate, unchanging reality (Brahman) existing ? < and that idea is what is the illusion?
  4. @Breakingthewall How can the subject at the centre of consciousness be real if it’s constantly changing?
  5. Love this. 😭 Grief is Love with nowhere to go. 😥😥😥
  6. The conditioning that accumulates since childhood is like coat after coat being put over reality, so that life becomes more and more weighty and confined. Then one day it suddenly dawns on you that you don’t have to keep wearing the heavy coat anymore. Rather, you can just simply take the darn coat off. 😜 How sweet is that!
  7. Yes, that was my initial point, self-referencing. Connection is just this self-recognition of self-referencing.
  8. Self-Help For Dummies
  9. Watching the World Cup is special like watching the Olympics, the atmosphere is amazing. Not usually interested in football much, but when the World Cup footie comes around I somehow enjoy the feverish collective spirit of the occasion.
  10. Yes, when one thing is known everything is known. Since nothing is identical to everything. And so that would be everything knowing how to fry an egg, and everything knowing how to add numbers together.
  11. Paracetamol is a useful relief for most headaches. If you’re feeling good enough, then great, no need to be getting inside some other head, it’s enough just to be in your own.
  12. The logical mind is known, never seen. It’s a real illusion.
  13. If you want a book that makes you feel better, writing your own would be a better idea.
  14. The right one is only right because it’s not wrong.
  15. Just a thought, but living forever wouldn’t even be much fun because you’d eventually get bored after experiencing everything there is to experience, so life would eventually become stagnant and old and worn out, that’s why death is equally a gift as is birth. Death allows for every birth to feel brand new as one would feel like they are living for the very first time. Sorry if this has been clumsily worded, but it’s difficult to say what is being pointed to sometimes.
  16. This is well thought out, but the opposite is also true. The unreal is always real, and the truthless is true.
