The good for the human is the evil for the chicken... Does others relate to only humans here, or all animals. To amoebas? Where do we draw the line, sentience maybe? Balance is not at all easy, we usually only think about ourselves when talking about things like that and in the process we pull the rug towards us and all the animals have no cover.... As a human race, we think the absolute good == absolute good for humans, when we are just a piece of the jigsaw... -

Please help me out as I see a contradiction, as in the Bible it is written that we are not necessarily expected to follow the Law, as long as we have faith. "Justified by faith". The way I understand it, the only law worth following is the Law of Love and the rest is just noise. For example you would not do evil things if you follow the law of love, which is not a written law, its the law of the heart. God is way beyond the human understanding and beyond human authority. From Wiki: "It was Paul who developed the term justification in the theology of the church. Justification is a major theme of the epistles to the Romans and to the Galatians in the New Testament, and is also given treatment in many other epistles. In Romans, Paul develops justification by first speaking of God's just wrath at sin (Romans 1:18–3:20). Justification is then presented as the solution for God's wrath (Romans 3:21–26, Romans 5:1). One is said to be 'justified by faith apart from works of the Law' (Romans 3:28). Further, Paul writes of sin and justification in terms of two men, Adam and Christ (Romans 5). Through Adam, sin came into the world bringing death; through Jesus, righteousness came into the world, bringing justification unto life (Romans 5:15–17). In this connection, Paul speaks of Adam's sin being 'imputed' or 'accounted' (Greek ελλογειται) and speaks of justification as acting in analogy to sin (Romans 5:13; Romans 5:18). In chapter 8, Paul connects justification with predestination and glorification (Romans 8:30). He further states that those who are justified cannot be separated from the love of Christ (Romans 8:33–39). Several of these passages are central in the debate between Roman Catholics, and the various streams of Protestantism (while there is broad agreement on justification by faith, there is no complete doctrinal uniformity on justification among all Protestant denominations), who can understand them in quite different ways. In Galatians, Paul emphatically rejects justification by works of the Law, a rejection sparked apparently by a controversy concerning the necessity of circumcision for salvation (Galatians 2:16, Galatians 5:4; see also Romans 5:1–12 and Council of Jerusalem). He also adds that the only thing that counts is the "faith [which] works by love"(Galatians 5:6)." -

We think because we are, not the other way around. But you can say: "I think therefore I can articulate that I am", then its a different story. -

exactly this dream analysis is a very great contemplative tool and a way to suggest to someone/yourself that even if it feels like you are the body, might not be so certain... I mean look at your dream last night! Very nice observation, I love using dreams for contemplations like these -

Now that we have nailed parallel realities, let us look at perpendicular realities or stay in the one we are cause we never actually go anywhere anyway - this reality, parallel reality, perpendicular reality, its always here and now -

I would say the question is wrong because prayer is not supposed to be something rehearsed or like a tool/tactic, it should come from the heart, should be natural and organic, it kind of takes away from it if I told you a method that "works". Well I guess I did tell you the method From the heart and being honest. -

Ah love dreams like that Ive also experience dreams with Leo and also with Eckhart Tolle (big boast) and they were some of the most realistic dreams I've ever had and were indeed deeply spiritual and with strong spiritual meaning with insights. -

I agree. Dont want to be cheesy, but I really think it is true that selfless desires can be magically manifested, but selfish ones are usually not offered any magical help. -
Dodo replied to GoobyBooby's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Ive had an experience, been in a place like hell and I heard, within me, MANY people making beautiful music and they were cheering, literally destroyed evil with love. They were within me but I could hear them as if they were there, right outside. It was real as it can be. -
Dodo replied to GoobyBooby's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
no because while you are human, you cannot run away from consciousness. But if you want to be pure consciousness without the human aspects while being muddy human, we have a problem! Some want to remove the painting to get to the canvas, while the canvas is there even with the painting on it.... Dont have to delete the painting to be with the canvas. -
I was once sungazing and decided to close my eyes and direct full attention to looking at the light that was still impressed on my sight (even with closed eyes) and I was staring at one point of light. After looking at it for a while, it started vibrating and all of a sudden, an tiny angel popped out and flew up (my eyes still closed). It was an awesome experience. I haven't seen demons but Ive had a small experience with an Ouroboros but its a long story that I am still confused about. Ouroboroses are confusing.

Eckhart Tolle says Past only appears as a memory now, Future appears as imagination now, only now is real. This would excuse a lot of bad behaviour though, since "why are u unhappy, I raped u in the past" -
Dodo replied to Heaven's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
This is a very interesting way to view the world and I've had the same question a few years back. The best answer I've received about this came by a user here and he did not answer "yes" or "no" but rather hinted at me that it was me that had to find that out. In my recent experience I had an episode where everything felt like sims, and I even felt like I was communicating with those "above" that are playing. But when one of the characters I was walking with asked me "what do you think is happening" and I asked if we are in Sims, she laughed, I think because I was apparently wrong. I think that our mind has way more to do with our perception of reality than we think... To the point that you can view the world as being sims.. Like a different paradigm maybe. At one point I felt like I was the only one that didnt know this was Sims, like everyone else was an actor and knew, only I didnt, kind of like the Truman show... Cause at one point they thought I was one of the actors too and started telling me where to go because I was not in the right spot... -

I believe so, however I've had some experience with the shifting method by doing things that are spontaneous and would not do before which appeared to work, but I believe it did because I was deeply connected with the collective and my desires were in line with "the good of all" not the "good of myself" so I've seen it working I think but it wont work for selfish desires, just altruistic true love-based desires and even then I dont know how or why it would work, it is/was never up to me or my will. -

Family is integral to being Human. Interactions, not being alone. There appears to be a problem here because if you want to be alone while being Human you are running away from life. Unity rather than Oneness. -
Dodo replied to OneHandClap's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@OneHandClap very interesting report. I would advise you to experiment with fasting, praying and running for a genuine nondrug induced experience/spiritual practice -

what an asshole -
Dodo replied to Wilhelm44's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
yes definitely your intuition is correct in my opinion, the macro level changes are definitely going to be influenced by the collective. I can't see it possible to do what Bashar says individually just like that through will. Maybe can happen in some cases through dimension split or something to see another version of Earth and I might have seen something like that, although I dont know if it was all in my head (then again it might be all in my head right now too!) -
If the truth is silent, but everyone listens to the loudest man in the room, they will all be fooled.

Every ism is a trap ? we need to be empty of isms.

Some say God loves you so much she recreates your image every second so as to look at you. So in a sense by looking at this idea, we go out of existence and into existence every second by the hand of God (not Maradona ;p) so we die every moment. What if Heaven is real? Nihilism is a kind of hell. It is also based on assumptions. It is really not the natural state to be nihilistic. Life being free of meaning is just the canvas being empty. You can now put paint on it.

When you're dead you're dead?! Then why are you not dead right now... There is eternity of "time" before you were born and eternity of "time" after you die. You are so convinced that in this eternity you have never existed before and in the eternity after you will never exist again? That seems to me like a very slim chance! hehe. Things get crazy when infinity is involved... Our lives are small seeds bro! They have a lot of meaning, we are building heaven and hell with our actions and intentions (I believe).
-
The world is free of meaning so we can give it any meaning that we choose. Your meaning could be to raise the vibration of the planet/Galaxy/Universe/Multiverse in all directions of time, space and in all non-directions of no-time and no-space, forever and ever Amen! By the way, there could be something that not a lot of people/beings know, like whether the things we say and do here on our earthly lives matter for creating a world beyond this one. Like seeing this life as you being a seed and every small thing you do is a seed, which will sprout in eternity. Your small actions today might be something incredible in eternity. Now that's some meaning! Imagine you will live forever in the tree that you are right now the seed of.

Dodo replied to Gnostic Bean's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
So are you saying people who take psychedelics experience psychosis? I got there by natural fasting and strong desire to raise Earth's vibration and all this i think thanks to Spirit of true love/holy spirit. It wasnt me doing anything so I cant take credit, all happened in a way I could not force now, was natural happening.
