I second this. If you're capable of having girl friends. Having girlfriend is not very different. A different version of the same thing would be. The easiest way to have a million dollars is to have a million dollar industry.

The One Dreamer is not just one dreamer. It's a sum total of infinite souls. And all these souls share the same essence and are one but are also individual and unique.

You're right. There is one dreamer only. But one is expressing itself through many. There are infinite souls of the same dreamer. That same one dreamer is dreaming infinite dreams through infinite individual souls. If one soul awakens. Other souls will still be dreaming and the dream will continue.

I'm not overlooking that ultimately we are one. But you're overlooking the reality of two'ness. I understand that we are one. But I also understand that we are two. One cannot exist without the two. And two cannot exist without the one. We are one and we are two at the same time and there's no contradiction. Duality is part of non duality. And non duality is part of duality. This is the next level of understanding that is required to talk about this topic.

When someone is in such a level of torment that tricking someone to sleep with you, you're not even interested in, is the only option to get relief. Then to feel compassion for them is appropriate. And it starts to feel like such trickery becomes justifiable at this point. Yet I would give an argument that it's a disservice to justify such a mindset to the one suffering because it promotes a false hope, a fool's gold in a way, that promises happyness but gives you more suffering in the end, even if the endeavor is successful. There should some more concious ways to handle that problem imo.

Bruh, I am acim Joking. I've actually read it multiple times and still benefit from it.

Depending on the perspective you look from. Reality is both real and unreal at the same time. It is dual and non dual at the same time. Solipsistic and non solipsistic at the same time. You're here alone as one and you're here as an individual among many at the same time. You're God and a Child of God at the same time. Awakening is absolute and has infinite levels at the same time There is free will and there isn't free will at the same time. Your life is 100% in your control and it is not in your control at all at the same time. And both of these seemingly opposite perspectives are simultaneously true at the same time. It's like that picture with a vase and a face. This is why this topic is so fucked up and difficult to talk about. If you're only defending one side of the perspective, than you're not seeing the full picture of reality. One perspective is not more true than the other one. A vase is not more true than the two faces Only if you add both perceptives into one will you see the full picture. And there will be no contradiction. The moment you think you grasped reality, you failed. And the moment you see the incomprehensible nature of reality, you've succeeded It defies logic, yet it's perfectly logical that existence has to defy logic to exist. Life makes sense and it doesn't make any sense at the same time. It's a paradox, it's a strangeloop, it's a mindfuck and it's total magic at the same time. It's everything, everywhere, all at once. That's reality for you.

Yes this universe is a product of the tiny mad idea of separation. So this universe got created as a reflection of our beliefs and as curriculum for us to evolve. But the universe is not going to disappear as long as there are other souls in it who are under the belief in seperation. For they are in need of physical reality to evolve out of their illusions. You're not the only one who is responsible for the manifestion of this 'dream' so to speak. That's why one person's awakening doesn't mean much to the rest of the souls left behind.

If there's a lesson here worth learning is to never get involved in solipsism debates But it's too late guys. I'm pissed. It's a war now! lol. First of all, I'm not projecting you into reality. I'm projecting onto you things that make us feel seperate rather than one. These are projections of my ego that I need to learn to forgive and heal. But after doing so, you will remain you, and I will still remain me. Yes we are one in essence. But we are two seperate points of the same essence. If one of us learns to see the union between us. Another one is not going to vanish from existence. Only the sense of seperation is going to vanish. At the most I can say, I am attracting/manifesting a learning/healing situation where I would have an opportunity to look at my projections and go beyond them. And you were attracting/wishing for the same thing aswell and that's why the supreme intelligence (God's love) brought us both here for this very purpose of healing. Because we both wanted the same thing. Everyone on this forum is brought by the same impulse. There is no other way to encounter an experience unless you have desired for it. So technically everything is 100% your own manifestation. But that doesn't make you a figment of my imagination!!! AND FROM ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW EVERYTHING IS IMAGINED. BUT NOT BY YOU ALONE. BUT BY THE SAME ONE INTELLIGENCE IN ALL OF US. AAAGHHHHH!!!!! One day I'll go mad discussing solipsism, for real...

Bro. That was smooth answer.

I'm impressed you went for a moon over boobs.

What else is there to do but to live and live fully?

Truth is terrifying for the ego because it will obliterate everything ego cherishes so much. That's probably what Leo meant.

👆That's in alignment with what I'm saying also. He's basically saying the world as we know it as a projection of defiled mind (ego). But a lot more needs to be said about this pain in the ass topic to give it justice imo. There are two types of realities. One that the ego projects, full of strife, suffering, fear, drama and bs. This is referred as a dream or a world of illusions. And the reality of God. Of perfect innocence and beauty and peace. This reality cannot vanish because it is eternal. If somebody awakens from the dream of illusions, there is still going to be others who are in a dream, suffering their own hallucinations/projections. That's why those who escaped the dream can come back to help others. The world is a dream, yes. But from the practical point of view the dream is as good as real. It's something you can be part of or not. It's something you can manipulate and influence etc. Or you can be uninvolved in it. That's why there are some many vedas written that Ramana mentions about this world and how it functions and the Laws that govern it etc. It's not a flimsy hallucination of someone's mind alone. Ughh... Honestly this topic is nothing but pain in the ass if you ask me. My usual response is just to roll my eyeballs and stay away from it. Don't know how I got involved in it this time. Remind me not to go anywhere near this topic next time

End of the world

When acim says the world is a dream, it doesn't mean the universe will disappear when one awakens. It means all the projections of ego will no longer exist and only perfect sinlessness and glory will be left in one's vision. But the universe is not going anywhere. Only the universe as ego knows it (full of fear, danger, fallacies, unfairness, sense of lack, judgement, guilt etc) vanishes.

Emptyness is the soil, flower (love) is the product of the soil. Masculine and feminine. Prepare the soil, make sure to pour some water and on it and give some sunlight (the grace of Yeshua) and the flowers will come.

The silent primordial space of awareness is important because it creates space for a new voice to come. A new voice not of the old fear based ego, but a voice that speaks of love. Primordial silent awareness is a requirement but not the end goal in itself.

Expressions of love are not ego Expressions of fear is ego A holy mind simply means the mind that is not fragmented but whole.

you guys are too baaaad for anyone to handle 🔥 😏
