I have asked myself this, and the answer could be that God is unconscious / doesn't care. Or perhaps God wanted to create something real, like playing Sims without cheat codes when you get in trouble. When you are young you want to use cheat codes in games in order to win, but later you realize that to become actually good at a game, there is no shortcut. Have to play it and suffer many defeats in the process. Perhaps it's no different than this. Perhaps it's random, perhaps it values suffering as much as joy. Who knows

@AleksM I have been sick and vomiting all night. Is this from my newfound identity as a pregnant point? :-D Feelsbadman It's really hard to find the good sometimes when every 10 minutes you throw up, become dehydrated, drink again and repeat. Looks like a horrible strange loop :-D! Not fun being pregnant :-D

I remember In maths there is this thing when a contradiction /paradox appears, which this episode made come up in my mind. If for example you are trying to find x and then while solving the problem you find that x>5 and x<3 for example. Then you would write the symbol for contradiction and then would write that x belongs to the empty set (not that it doesn't exist). Sounds very sexy

@AleksM i thought of this one at the beginning of the vid nice post

Ofcourse i dont have those problems when im high on weed, but god made sure to make it illegal. What a jackass :-D

It's inadequate for dealing with the world it has been popped into. Inadequate to get into a proper relationship, inadequate to succeed financially, inadequate for enlightenment, inadequate, inadequate, inadequate. The pleasures of this world are reserved for those blessed with looks/talent/luck. Give me money and a good girl and you wouldn't see me seeking, because there wouldn't be any suffering. God can make anything, but cannot make this happen. God is inadequate. I trully am made in his image.

@Hero in progress I like the idea. I've had a similar one with a topic "Contemplative questions", but it didn't work out. I feel like the body is a pleasure and torture instrument. I don't know who I am and why I am experiencing exactly this body. The body I'm experiencing is way more a torture instrument than a pleasure one, making it a thing I want to get rid of, perhaps replace with a better version. How do I get rid of the cross?

We all have 10000+ hours of being. We are masters of being. We all have 10000+ hours of Unconsciousness/Ego. We are masters of unconsciousness. Hurray.

@nexusoflife If God's creation doubts God, who's to blame? God is really getting on my nerves, only talks to people who take drugs... Has no power over the Ego it seems... It seems the Ego is stronger if it can silence God and plunge God into non existence. What I want is for me to not exist, but God has created a reality where you never get what you want if it's positive, and always get what you want if it's negative. Funny.

Thank you. I want to give rep but the new bookmark is on top and I cant press it on my phone. Managed to do it, superpower I guess! :-D

I am the god damn screen, how come therr are things not relevant to me? There's a lot of back and forth on this. One time I am the screen, the other time I am the monkey on the screen. I dont have evidence of a screen, only of the monkey. So I know for sure the monkey is there, even if it's not me. How could I do awareness right and how can I do it wrong? Isn't it what I am no matter what? Isn't it effortless? It really turns out awareness is just a sedative. No real value but to take another monkey out by making it fearless. Fearless monkeys do dumb shit. Trusting in a higher power.. Total crap. Have to make everything yourself. Logical mind only. Fuck God. Fuck spirituality. I am calm while saying this, i am a monkey on spiritual sedatives ready to be amusement for the real Gods. Which the monkey says "fuck you" to,because it is full of spiritual seditives and doesn't care.

I have a blanket. meditation is one of the few things I will be able to do! It's like hitting the spiritual lottery, what a lucky guy I am

I want death! Please please please! I dont fear death, I fear pain. (pain such as being inadequate in society, pain like sleeping on the cold during the winter, pain like that, non of the psychological pain that is the easiest thing to beat - poor rich sufferers out there, poor souls, life is so hard, oh depression for no reason! Shut up and eat your sandwich, which you have money to buy) I often walk around wishing some terrorist will pop up and end my miserable existence. Trully enlightened can only be the dead. You know, the ones who cant type in a forum, because they trully have no self. I want to be like that, but no. Terrorists never want to fulfill my dream. All they want is bomb other people who dont want it. Total injustice and bullshit! Come terror me you sons of bitches.

I have tried already to make money appear out of thin air, in fact I havent been able to perform any miracle. What good is it being a God when I can't do anything Godly? I'm not a God at all, just a bunch of atoms and the uneventful awareness aware of them. What can awareness do when you're really in trouble? Nothing, it just allows and accepts it. I'm still going to be on the street. Sure, I can have a good state of mind about it and be peaceful about it, but what's the point? I can't do shit. The shittiest type of God I am, if I am one at all. Looks more like I'm just a monkey.

@AleksM please make me disappear. I've had enough! Btw I'll be living on the streets soon, much time to meditate. Great plans from God for this body, amazing plans. Very well played.

Hell is a place where the pain is continuous. It doesn't have to be egoic pain, it can be continuous excruciating physical pain. Even if you are enlightened you will suffer, because this is not self created pain that turns into suffering, no. Continuous pain is suffering, and even if you are enlightened and don't create psychological pain on top, you would still suffer - be in hell, while you're in hell. You think a state can be reached in which someone plucking out your nails, teeth and eyeballs will not cause you suffering / hell?

Very interesting read! I had this joke with my sister when I was young that we are living in sims 10

That's incredible, just yesterday I was walking the streets and thought about how to tell people not to eat chicken, because I've had roosters as pets before and they are the sweetest pets ever! They are peaceful creatures and if you have them from when they are young, they will not fear you. (If you give them love) This thought particularly made me sad: "I want to buy a pet chicken, but they only sell dead ones... Who needs a dead chicken? No love can be given, no love can be received..."

I'm still unconsciously killing wolves at the starting area thinking that if I gain +1xp enough times I will succeed! At least I'm safe, the wolves are too weak to kill me

I want to be special, because truth already is whether I am special or not, so I want the nice addon!

I was having a dream last night where I don't remember exactly what happened, but I remember I was incredibly angry and annoyed - it was some sort of injustice/something horribly unlucky happening to *me*. I was so unhappy, that even when I woke up from the dream, this feeling continued and I felt annoyed that I was hard done by. I had the strong feeling of "Nothing that can happen can fix this", but then I learned that my dream character lacked the most valuable insight - that it is not real. That remedied the situation pretty quick. Few more seconds were needed for me to realise these emotions over a completely fictional character are completely out of place and I wondered how I could have been fooled like that. Suddenly "Nothing can fix this" turned into "There was never a problem to begin with" lol! I want to get there in waking life too. I know intellectually that this is a dream, and intellectual knowing for me is like the compass that will lead the way to experiential understanding one day, which let's say is Enlightenment.

This night I had an experience of recognizing that I am that which is aware of deep sleep. It was a very peaceful experience and nice to recognise you are there while there is absolutely no content. My memory of the event is something like static. Im not even sure it happened exactly as I say or if it was just in a dream phase. All I know is my subconscious is continuing the inquiry during night time. Sweet!

@egoless I have linked this video from the 14th minute. These words directly answer to your worries here.

The voice of Ego is one of urgency and doubt. Listen to the silence of your body right now. Can you focus on it with no thought? If you can't you have no control over your thoughts and I am speaking to an Ego called Egoless (perfect disguise!). Has the stillness ever lied to you @egoless, has the isness ever lied? The only one that can lie is thought, the Ego. Isness cannot lie, it is simply true. Being is truth. It's absolutely continuous. Can silence lie to you? Sound can lie, silence cannot lie. Look for the silence, not for the noise!! You're nurturing the Noise! Sometimes me too - like now.
