  1. Nobody knows what’s going to happen next. The present moment is blank of knowing. Existence is unwritten memory.. so even this present moment that feels alive is dead.
  2. Speaking in absolutes involves using words like always, never, everyone, or no one to make a point, which oversimplifies complex situations and can be inaccurate. Examples include "You always leave your dirty clothes on the floor" or "That's the only way to solve this problem," as there are almost always exceptions to the rule. Examples of speaking in absolutes Instead of: "You always forget to lock the door." Try: "You often forget to lock the door." Instead of: "No one likes that new policy." Try: "Very few people like that new policy." Instead of: "This is the only way to do it." Try: "This is one of the best ways to do it." Instead of: "I would never do that." Try: "I would rarely do that." Instead of: "Everyone wants to be rich and famous." Try: "Most people want to be rich and famous." Instead of: "Everything goes wrong when you are in charge." Try: "Many things go wrong when you are in charge." Instead of: "You can never be too careful." Try: "You should usually be very careful." Instead of: "This is always the result." Try: "This is the result most of the time." Why people might speak in absolutes Desire for simple answers: They may want a simple, yes-or-no response rather than a nuanced one. To be perceived as correct: Some may use absolutes to appear more knowledgeable or certain. To make decisions: It can be a way to feel more in control or to shut down debate. Preconceived notions: They may be ignoring facts at hand with a predetermined response. The pitfalls of speaking in absolutes Inaccuracy: It often oversimplifies complex situations, leading to factual errors. Rigidity: It leaves little room for exceptions or different perspectives, which can make a speaker seem inflexible. Miscommunication: It can lead to misunderstandings and conflict because it ignores nuance. Example A relative thinker might say, "In my experience, that approach is usually effective," while an absolute-thinking relative might say, "That approach always works".
  3. I feel that. It’s beautiful effortless living, freedom from myself at last. Service to others is all that’s left for me to do. That’s if there’s a demand for it of course.
  4. Yep, I must ensure I show up every night to monitor my sleeping body just to make absolutely sure I’m remembering to breathe, and to be there to wake the body when bladder needs emptying, save the feeling of cold wet sheets in the morning.
  5. What a ridiculous presumption. Do you believe in Santa Claus too. 😂 Narcissist! 😫 Oh gosh, don’t tell me, that you’ve never looked at a mirror in your entire life.
  6. Self must act serious, otherwise no one would want to watch their show.
  7. How do you know? If you have to ask that question, you don’t know. But you do know because you are the knowing that cannot be known.
  8. The Self is bound by syntax. An artificial reality appearing Real. Outside of human language, nothing is living or dying, or being harmed. Everything endures because nothing can never not be.
  9. I enjoy reading your ideas. Especially this one here….▶️ ( The issue with infinity is that within it, there is an infinite hierarchy of sub-infinites (you can look up the mathematician Georg Cantor, who proved there are different orders of infinity within the absolute). To make it less abstract, consider how, within your own hand, you could keep zooming in infinitely; your hand itself is infinite in this sense. So, someone could attain a complete "omniscience" of a sub-infinity, and there would be more "sub-infinites" to grasp still, yet that awakening by itself would still be "whole.” ) Just needed to say it’s a very profound insight. I’d never heard of Georg Cantor before, so am now looking into his vision.
  10. OLLI AYE😎 Right back at ya. One life live it. Enjoy living your best life. 🙏 You’ve earned it, it’s your birthright.
  11. That is amazing beautiful awesome wisdom. Pure beauty expressing itself through sound and vision 💯 ... Leo has said similar things , he’s mentioned same idea. There’s only the beloved here, dreaming difference where there is none.
  12. Listen more. Learn to see beyond the fog of bla bla bla.
  13. The body controls functionality all by itself, alone. It controls temperature all by itself. The body doesn’t force. The functionality is automatic.
  14. 😎 He packs a mighty punch. He’s drunk on Love. I admire it. Forum is lucky to have him. ❤️
  15. It is artificial because what you are doing is referring to events that belong to the mind of knowledge within the dream of separation of I have control over. . That’s the artificial illusion.
  16. The heart stopping was an artificial event. Not natural. Nature doesn’t artificially stop or start the heart beating. The heart will naturally stop beating only when the stopping is meant to happen, and not one second before. And no human being has any control over that moment the heart stops beating that never restarts.
  17. I understand that, thanks for clarifying. I need to give everything I think I am back to God before I die, so that I die with love in my heart, not regret or hate??
  18. Yes I know that, but I just needed to say that James is a clean fighter. You brought up the idea that lines could potentially be crossed prompting you to remind yourself that you are a moderator, nothing personal.
  19. What do you mean by “ You will meet with the hell “ unless you let go and surrender when death comes?
  20. I’ve never witnessed bad, threatening, or socially unacceptable behaviour from James here at this forum that could possibly warrant concern or moderation. The guy is naturally self moderating, takes a lot of self responsibility and maturity to control one’s emotions like that..
  21. @Breakingthewall The mouth overflows with what the heart is full of. It’s all fine, it’s all just the Beloved. Everything is okay, SHE’s just singing.
