Saw and The Human Centipede actually happened then.

You are that nothing.

Good job, I liked it.

A good starting point is to find that within yourself which is prior to thought. That in itself should be enough evidence.

Did you write this?

Couldn't have put it better.

When I passed my driving test, I wanted an electric car. I managed to get one eventually. I wanted all the cars and planes to be electric. It's happening I wanted more and more people to become vegan. That's happening too Also noticed synchronicity becoming too frequent to ignore recently Is this really what's going on here? Because I want stuff to happen, It happens eventually and I'm willing whatever I want into being? If I just want things to change for the better, they will?

In the waking state, consciousness appears to limit itself into a world with concrete laws and clear distinctions between forms. In the dream state, consciousness has greater access to its infinite potential, relaxes its focus and as a result - distinctions between knower and known are less clear and the apparent laws of reality we are accustomed to break down. This video illustrates this perfectly.

I'm definitely red pill too. Marriage would be a huge catastrophe for me.

My meditation practice nearly always consists of do nothing or focusing on awareness. I was wanting to deepen the practice and was wondering how I would go about meditating on something like impermanence. Does it involve asking myself questions about the chosen subject of meditation or thinking about decaying buildings?

Will look into it @Nahm I am struggling with breathing from the stomach. Is it like where the stomach expands instead of the chest? I tried it and it seems restrictive and I can't breathe very deeply.

Fetuses exist but brains don't?

You've not been obnoxious at all, it's all good advice. I will use it in my meditations. Thank you.

I like following his meditations but I am still feeling mostly nothing. There is a new background of peace to everything now but I still always have this nagging fear of the fact that I'm going to experience absolutely everything. I know that as Shaun, I won't, but I will come back into other lives and it's just going to keep going forever.

This question arose after reading a trip report. As the present moment is without any duration, how is it possible to perceive change or something like an object moving from one place to another?

So I'm hallucinating this whole thing. Leo, my family and the entire universe. Nothing more than fake hallucinations with no more life to them than a video on a screen or character in a computer game. I really can't do anything with my life any more as there is nobody to benefit from anything I do. I don't even know why I'm making this post to be honest. Every day I feel nothing. I no longer know how to feel love or joy as there is nothing to achieve and no goal any more. I am absolutely stuck now, suicide is no option and there are no options. I wouldn't say that I'm suffering, there is just no emotion now apart from great fear in the morning. I used to think that we are all pure consciousness, we are all in this mind and when a person awakens, a little bit of that one mind awakens and the whole thing was working to know itself and once the whole mind awakens to its true essence, it was nirvana for eternity. It's not like that. Once I know myself, I just start the cycle again from the stages of primordial sludge and all the misery continues ad infinitum. How the hell do I work with that?

I have yet to see an upside to this.

It's due to an enormous lack of motivation after going deeper into nonduality. No matter what way I look at it, I just can't see any point in pouring effort into anything now. All I want to do is just mindfully do nothing.

They probably just come back to experience some other form of joy or torture and I'd imagine the final stages of the death process are much like a 5 MEO trip.

You're right, for those who are fully god realised, there's no problem. For those who are not god realised, being set on fire or falling down a mineshaft is a pretty big problem.

Very well put, thanks! Definitely ties in with it in my experience.

Let's replace a small problem with an even bigger one. The nondual realisation is what utterly fucked my life over from joy, meaning and love into utter meaninglessness and emotional emptiness with spells of great fear.

Leo tell us that we can verify everything he says which further adds to people's misunderstandings and misery. Myself and a few others are now sitting here thinking that all you guys on here are just nothing more than words on a screen and that trap makes further progress more difficult than it needs to be.

Maybe in a sense I've been granted what I wished for. I was talking to a woman who I once would have considered extremely attractive in both looks and personality but I felt absolutely nothing. Maybe it's this dark night of the soul.

Mine is mostly about renewable energy, refrigeration and electric cars. It was my life purpose to grow my channel and maybe make a living from it but I can't see that happening. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCocJ2fsj_3kc1QEfOIpPi0g
