  1. You’re welcome. Nonduality teachers are all afflicted by the same terminal illness, they’re all either dying to die or they’re already dead. ( just kidding , it’s my quirky sense of humour) 😜 So was the ticktok video.
  2. I’ve already agreed, teaching this stuff is flawed, and so is every spoken word that is pointing to nonduality. If fact silence is the only real teaching for me, in silence every instruction is revealed, every knowing what to do or how to do is revealed, so I trust only the silence to guide my conscience. So far it’s never let me down.
  3. We’re all Buddhas (persons) walking, observing as the characteristic figure of modern city life.
  4. IDK, and cannot speak for others, but I’m only interested in what’s behind the image of me that makes me me, so far I haven’t been able to find anything of any significant substance, and I’m personally fine with my conclusion. For me, that’s the hard problem of consciousness that’s never been solved. And if God is consciousness then God is never going to reveal itself to an imaginary other.
  5. This is all flawed too. There’s no original substrate behind reality. It’s turtles all the way down. Information theories suggest that information is the most fundamental component of the universe. It’s not physical matter or energy. Oh yes, it seems all so real, well so does any movie upon a blank screen. The characters in the movie all look like the one viewing the movie, but none of the characters in the movie are real. They’re all just empty images appearing upon the empty blank imageless screen of consciousness which is “fundamental” and inherently unfindable and inexhaustible. Welcome to the zombie jamboree. Of course a simulation would need to feel real or else nobody would take it seriously. [ [ "It from bit" is a phrase coined by physicist John Archibald Wheeler suggesting that every physical entity (the "it") derives its existence from information (the "bit")—specifically from binary yes-or-no answers to questions posed by measurement. It proposes that the physical universe is, at its core, created by information and observation rather than being composed solely of pre-existing matter. ]]
  6. Anger often acts as a survival mechanism, a fight or push back against threats perceived as "anger" due to fear or a defensive reaction. Anger is not wrong or right. It’s a natural programmed response, or knee jerk. It can’t be intentional if it’s completely spontaneous in the moment it arises. Anger is just an attribute of sentience, representing a basic "fight, flight, or freeze" response common to humans and many animals. As a component of conscious life, it serves as an adaptive mechanism for survival, reacting to perceived threats, injustice, or obstacles. Nothing wrong about it. If anything it’s completely okay to be angry because it’s simply part and parcel of sentient life’s intelligence. It’s just a release of negative energy that’s all, because the body naturally gravitates toward an equilibrium state.
  7. To become God you have to die for there’s no room in here for two.
  8. That’s why time exists to stop everything from happening all at once.
  9. Yes. There’s no object without space and there’s no space without an object. The two are too close to be separated. They are One.
  10. Nowhere - here now - must be a First Cause (often called God) that is itself uncaused.
  11. To escape this HELL & Heaven this same place. One must die and know death this placeless place. How does one die. One doesn’t, one awakens. Hello.
  12. I would imagine truth knows without knowing, that goes without saying. Animals instinctively know what’s good for them that will ensure their survival. Nature has programmed this knowing into them. No language is required for an animal to know what’s good for them, it’s just automatic programming in process. If Love wasn’t running through every programmed animal including the human animal, then would there even be a will to live anymore. It seems there is a will to live because of the power of Love which is the main driving force of life. Thats how I personally intuit love.
  13. No one or thing can try not to be now, or try to be out of the now. Have you ever tried to be not now, or out of the now?
  14. Yes really, it’s a viral thing. Virality spreads rapidly throughout the public consciousness like a virus.
  15. It’s my story, no need to be judgemental.
  16. I’m not really sure I understand what you mean. Because how can we not be our authentic selves, it’s not a practice, I don’t think anyone practices how to be, they’re just being what they’re being, as far as I understand being. If someone tells me they visit wormholes in their trips, or dreams, then I’m not going to disbelieve them, if they say they have then they probably have.
  17. You already are both the artist and the art.
  18. But isn’t the intuition just the unconscious made conscious. It’s the unconscious that’s running the show here, the noumenal made phenomenal.
  19. I think it’s all about understanding yourself and not caring about whether you are understood by others. Only you are you, and you cannot be another you, nor can another you be you. However, it’s important to know that any you can only see a reality from the lens of it’s own perception, from the perspective of how it is being revealed to them, and how could they possibly be wrong if what they are perceiving is appearing within them. Is that for anyone else to judge or doubt it’s actual validity? Not really…eh. No one else can disprove another person’s worldview. Any you can report to other you’s what they have seen on their mind trips by sharing their unique experiences with them. And why would anyone else invalidate their sharing of themself. We could either align with their point of view as something we have also experienced ourselves or just say wow that’s cool and not deny them their experience. Or tell them they are lying. I mean it’s no one else’s place but theirs anyway. The point is, I believe we’re all individually each our own little mini universes that are a unique never to be repeated reality, so how one person experiences their reality could never be any different than how it’s appearing to them, and nothing in their personal experience would be wrong. That’s how I look at this, anyway..
  20. I understand everything James talks about too. If I don’t understand something someone talks about, I never hold back or pretend I do , I just outright tell them I don’t know what you are talking about.
  21. I think people just take away from messages what is of value to them. I can see someone else’s point of view from where they are coming from, or I can’t. Same goes for Leo talks, so far I’ve been able to understand everything that guy talks about. Strangely enough.
  22. Who cares about worthless money. Why do we listen to these voices anyway, for their worth and value of course. Everyone of course is born into a world that requires money to survive. One must find a way to make money somehow no matter how, it’s just a job that needs to be done, unless you are fortunate enough to be born to a billionaire parent. Gosh even wild animals have to agree to certain trade off deals with other species of wildlife in order to survive. Every survival instinct comes with a cost, mostly a high price, it’s not exactly free. But it’s the price we’re willing to pay for admission else we’d all go extinct. Personally, it’s not about the messenger anyway, it about what the listener takes away from the message that counts.
