It is. It is your true self - impersonal awareness beyond all shapes/densities/qualities. Whereas your sense of self that has a quality and density to it is personal. It is ego. A mask. We confuse ourselves with the mask. But behind the mask there is awareness in which the dense sense of self is seen. That space beyond all shapes in which every shape arise is what would be called your true self in classical spirituality.

That aspect of you that knows, "now there is a sense of self", "now there is no sense of self" that is awareness. That's your true self so to speak. This is true. And yet every shape or density of ego is seen. The awareness itself is beyond all shapes and all qualities.

No I don't call an illusion a flaw. I can an illusion something that appears to be real but actually isn't. Some insights tho can be false. These can be debated and discussed to see how congruent they are. Neo advaita is full of such false teachings that are not logically congruent. (sorry for using that word again)

Illusions are not the reality. Just think about it. It's impossible for an illusion to be a reality.

Even if I didn't call it mind virus. It is still a deeply flawed framework and exposing it is not that difficult.

Okay okay. I won't use that word neo advaita. I'll think of something else

I don’t know where you picked up this language. But it's a mind virus I recognize very well. I'm just calling it neo advaita because it's exactly what they speak what you speak.

Two things can be at play here. One is judgement from the mind. Second it could be just the natural intelligence of the body to stay away from what is not good for you. Body has a brain of its own in a way. And it gives you signals as such.

It does compute. But it threatens your neo advaita framework. And you're trying hard to avoid your neo advaita being debunked.

It's not the story. Observe and confirm. This is reality

Nothing is going to fall away by accepting a thought system or a phylosophy such as neo advaita. The only way things fall away is when what is not true is seen through with awareness. There's a Giant difference between seeing things through and intellectual conviction or insight.

Things are not happening accidentally. They are inspired either by fear or love. Truth or ego. Truth or illusion.

Let me rephrase that. (I forgot I'm talking to neo advaita here lol) "By using Awareness of the actions"

Just observe how you feel when you choose generosity versus greed. Forgiveness versus judgement. Trust versus fear Surrender versus control Etc.

Self-awareness

Ego can make you chase all kinds of bs in the name of love. And the suffering will just get worse and worse. Only love can take you where you want.

Love. But you can't find love by listening to ego's voice or by following the inspiration of fear. Because the more you follow fears voice, the more you buy into illusion and ignorance. And that brings suffering.

No it is not a belief. What I say can be tested. Each time you chose fear(ego) you will suffer. Each time you chose love(truth) you will feel glory and peace. Sufficient self-awareness can prove this to anyone. What happens after death I'm not qualified to talk about. It's reasonable to think the same Law applies even after death. There is good reason to believe ancient mystics knew what they were talking about.

There are ego inspired actions and there are love inspired actions. Love wants to live, it wants to expand and sing. Ego wants to contract, it is fear, it doesn't want to embrace, it does not want to take responsibility it wants to escape. We are free to choose our master. One leads to Heaven another to hell.

Everything neo advaita says crumbles like house of cards once you introduce the concept of a witness awareness. Their entire logic and teaching is deeply deeply flawed. For some reason people get really stuck in there. Kinda sad.

The problem of suicide is that it is a choice you would never make out of love. And that should tell you the validity of such actions. All actions that are not of love are of ego. And such actions lead only to more suffering not less. Only love inspired actions can lead to kingdom you're so looking for in all the wrong places.

I watched a bit of that podcast. It's was half enjoyable. His ideas are not that uncommon actually it's just that he puts it out there in a very blunt way without much effort to go into detail. But what he sayed about evolution is true if you have the stomach to digest that sort of information and are willing to do a little research. If you want a detailed debunk of Darwin's evolution theory. The video below is an eye opener by the theosophical society. As for Joe Rogan, you can definitely sense he's not on the same page. But he allows people to have their own understanding of things without needing to convert them. Which is quite a mature and intelligent characteristic of him. It was very tasteful the way he managed the convo imo.

Spirt development is all that matters anyway. So what is there to cry about. It's not like all the hardship will be gone, everything will become free and everything will lose meaning. Spiritual development is the hard work. And no ai can take that pain of walking a spiritual path from you. What a joy eh?

No actually the energy healer I was talking about was using these himself. So i assumed he did his research and these must be good. And if you read about the company indeed it says many beautiful things how good they are in a very convincing way.

Intuition. Lol. But ask Michael. I'm confident he will agree with me.
