If transience is irrelevant, then what is the root of the attachment? Maybe it's a manifestation of "Self <<>> self" ? Maybe it's attachment to "truth" manifesting as "beauty"? Or, maybe, a confluence of these and others? -
Ziran replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
the truth emerging from the beauty is eternal? -
Ziran replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Maybe so, maybe not. I can't comment on anyone's experience other than my own. -

Why does it have to end? I'm sorry if it sounds like a stupid question. I don't see it ending at all. The "unbelievable" just keeps going... -

If so then either: the beauty described in the OP is not a transient form, or, the observer is not engaging in serenity? ETA: ... or a blending of both. -
Ziran replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Then, it's reasonable to conclude transience ( or not ) is irrelevant in this case, right? -
Ziran replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
It's difficult in spite of the realization of transience and impermanence? -
Ziran replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Because you too are beautiful, in like manner. And because you too are eternal, in the same way the beauty is eternal. There's one supernal attachment which is the foundation of the material world: Self << reflecting >> self. The experience described is participating in it. That's why it's difficult. -

I'm sad for "you". Is there something I can do to help "you"? -

There's nothing wrong with wanting to be seen, heard, and acknowledged as your authentic self. -

Careful what you wish for " ... due to ..." is a red flag. It usually indicates the problem is "blaming". It's a consequence of relentlessly looking backwards in time with the mind's eye and asking "why?" then answering the question using avoidant rationalization. yup ~nods~ like a pinballs in a pinball machine, ricocheting off each other? No. Cultivating mutual understanding with the ones who raised them is the shortest path to relief. -

"Do you really need guidance for developing spirituality?" Most need encouragement. Keep going. Consistent progress in the wrong direction eventually flips at the extremes. -

Respectfully, "after" and "next" are out of context. All of it is concurrent, and omnipresent. The "choosing" is better described as "suspension-of-disbelief", or revealing an image within an autostereogram. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereogram -

Maintenance in the form of God-the-sustainer. -

The material realm, where there's appearing and disappearing co-exists and is concurrent with the realms beyond. After death, there's opportunity to visit, adopt, and/or integrate with the events, objects, concepts that appeared and disappeared. Don't try, just breathe. Follow the breath with the mind's eye. Even if sleep doesn't come, the body still benefits. It's taught in the military to deep sea divers. -

Honest question: Is "being against" ... anyone, anything, any non-thing, a measure of ignorance? ... Is the enlightened against ignorance? for example. -
cultivate wonder. if you can, get out the map, and move that body.

Great question. Here's mine: What stops nothing from dissolving itself? I don't know, but something does. -

Awsome. I Love it! To the best of my knowledge, it's a truly innovative solution. I've never seen anything like it. Bravo. -

Spiritual mobility could be helpful, could be harmful. It's not a measure of virture. -
Ziran replied to Nemra's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Not wrong. Different. Animals lack spiritual mobility, for lack of better words. Animals cannot escape themselves. Humans routinely escape themselves. -

Think first. Pure love destroys as much as it builds. Healthy love partners with restraint. Blessings to you, -
Ziran replied to Cathy92506's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Anger is a special case. It's a consequence of lacking-empowerment which is antithetical to the enlightened.
