but isnt the whole premise of Buddhism that when you see dependent origination you drop self identification and psychs can help with that? -

even when you hit kensho repeatedly and can see your mind reboot back to duality? -

hmm never tried it but I guess when you cant even think, it's even more clear -

does it persist after the trip, and if so, for how long? -
AmIEvenReal replied to AmIEvenReal's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
yes because experiences are secondary and are not the gist of it -

well, awaken to love would imply feeling love, zen and buddhist stream entry is about perspective shift, it doesnt add any pleasant emotional states, it gives clarity by removing ignorance and false identification with self sorry if that sounds dry -

you are nothing, yes that's accurate summary, but final stage of deconstruction would be even void collapsing and vanishing, as void/nothingness has subtle duality in it: there's no-thing - nothing exists in opposition to something that could exist that duality could be deconstructed too -
- direct seeing - not identified with thoughts - no subject/ object separation, that separation can be still accessed by thinking but it is seen as secondary - feeling of liberation but at the same time "this is nothing special" - less suffering, thoughts no longer cause suffering, similar like seeing color red doesnt cause suffering

only when your consciousness is at a very low level and you're deep in duality and illusion -

yup, I didnt expect it, and @Dodo i'm not interested in being challenged with AI, AI generates responses based on thousands of internet recorded sentences, even if we assume all of these were spoken by enlightened people, it would be just statistical synthesis that wouldnt necessarily make any sense -

this can be also true on psychological level, where often the intentions of other people we perceive are our own projections, but just to clarify here I meant that on more fundamental level, there are no "others", so hate dissolves naturally From another angle, buddhist practice of metta is also helpful but it's more about renunciation and letting go of one's attachment to anger -
I have had few awakenings since I started with psychedelics few years ago.. But today I understood with more clarity how hate doesnt make any sense as I would be hating part of me that is still sleeping Stupid that I forgot about it somehow, it's so obvious once consciousness level is raised a bit

I think the notion of repeating is just a human concept as God exists without time, for something to "repeat" you need linear time. Linear time is just one way of experiencing things and in infinity there are inifinite number of different ways of experiencing reality that do not involve time
