Lol 😂 why nothing, who’s asking?

I understand what you’re saying. It’s happened to me. I’m still practicing on how I can put this into words, that’s the not easy part. The centre falling was the easiest part.

It’s like the mind trying to go beyond mind using the mind? You are non of this mental activity. It certainly feels like the living dead, right, or no?

So it appears, apparently.

Reject nothing simply because existence is everything. We’re the witness of the so called believer or nonbeliever, both being finite thoughts. There’s no requirement for belief or disbelief for witnessing. Witnessing is irrefutable and can never experience it's own absence, therefore witnessing must always have been forever present. That’s how forever is known, because absence of forever is never known. Forever is this absolute, which can know the temporal appearances but the temporal appearances can never know this absolute. That’s God recognition, realisation.

I can’t wrap my head around why someone would choose to deny the existence of God, not realising their own existence is a contingent phenomena. . why would the belief in God be based solely on “faith” rather than empirical verification of God? The word Faith just seems to be such a distorted irrelevant word. And yet it’s so common within religious doctrines. Would appreciate your thoughts about the word “Faith” and why the word just seems to obscure the obvious actual truth from our very non physical eyes.

So body and mind are in you. You are not in your body and mind? Any thing witnessed can feel like you, but is not you because you are infinite. You are the witness of finite things. Witnessed things are finite arising and falling in infinite you the watcher.

Is being unconscious of being conscious known as GOD? And is conscious of being conscious known as God’s dream?

Correct. There’s nobody being the body. No body sleeps, no body awakens from sleep. No body is born, no body dies. Body knows nothing of its existence.What the brain does is synthetically superimposes a complex sense of duality upon not knowing so as to make some form of cognitive semblance of identity where there’s something happening, and something known. Otherwise, everything would be nothing more than gutless marine worms feeding off of bacteria forever.

Flushing the inner system and the outer system cistern. What can be better relief 😮‍💨

Where there’s a SELF there’s ishness. The state of being the look alike mirror image of the imageless.

Divine Perfection vs. Human Flaws: The rose, with its beauty and fragrance, symbolizes the perfection, love, and glory of God. The thorn represents human nature, which, since the curse of sin, is associated with pain, suffering, sin, and a "rebellious nature". The Coexistence of Good and Evil: The phrase can also imply that God is present in both pleasant "roses" and painful "thorns" in life, teaching that one must perceive God's presence in all circumstances, not just the good ones. Humility Through Adversity: Drawing from the biblical passage of the Apostle Paul's "thorn in the flesh" (2 Corinthians 12:7-10), the "thorn" is seen as a tool used by God to keep a person humble and reliant on divine grace, not their own strength. Jesus as the "Rose of Sharon": In some interpretations, Jesus is referred to as the "Rose of Sharon," who stood out "among the thorns" (human sinners) and ultimately wore a crown of thorns during his crucifixion to atone for human transgressions. The saying emphasizes that while human life involves unavoidable struggles (thorns), God's grace and redemptive power (the rose's beauty) can be found within or, in spite of, those difficulties.

Being dead.

'The mind had to be first about the body, or it could not have been' Antonio Damasio

I think where I am not, therefore I am where I do not think. Is what thinks in my place, then, another I ?

Good point. “The self is a repeatedly reconstructed biological state” "The mind is implanted in the brain, and the brain is implanted in the body".

Infinity, beginnings, ends, life, death are all parts of the same reality, are just made-up useful concepts, and don't exist in isolation. I read a comment on this forum the other day by Leo Gura. It said “ Infinity is Death” but I can’t remember whereabouts I’d seen it written, I mean which thread it was on. Anyways, I thought about it a lot because it resonates deeply as just another concept that cannot know anything about anything because concepts have no awareness of their existence. What are your thoughts about this?

Amazing. Thanks James. ❤️

I understand 💯

Just God then?

Maybe cuz you are the knowing that cannot be known. Infinity as it is known is simply the eternal now of not knowing presence. Who would deny or negate this?

Infinity is death. But not dead.
