  1. @zeroISinfinity A thinker of the thoughts is no liver of lives. All is well, there is need to worry. You are all that is. Celebrate the recognition of yourself, re-joy-ce in it! Who crafted what arrow shot from who’s quiver - I Don’t Know did! Question the chicken and the egg long enough, and you won’t get the yoke.
  2. @iTommy I hear ya. ? A decent contemplation might be, without a thinker of thoughts, do thoughts arise? Why would they and for what? Duality arises in a nondualist, but does duality arise within nonduality?
  3. @Surfingthewave The discovery is in the sensation. Stay with it, ‘ride’ that wave. Write down what you know you don’t want, and then make a list of what you now know you do want. Then burn the first list, and bury the ashes. And thanks, likewise. Meditation 24 hrs a day, quite literally is the dream. You really nailed it there.
  4. @zeroISinfinity A dream is not a life, it is a dream, and it has no discernible beginning nor ending. The conceptualization of a dream however, arises, and also ceases. There is as much need to mourn the ceasing of a concept, as the passing of a life. An arising thought of past, future, or self...is false. It is useful only in creating, as it applies to the ‘life’, the dream. You could say this is ‘returning’ to actuality, to direct experience, to that which was being conceptualized, or, Being, conceptualized. For you, I will not amount to more than an appearance which comes and goes. There is not a me nor abilities, there is an apparent limitation of you, which comes & goes. The worthwhile question is of my usefulness in your creation.
  5. @zeroISinfinity Unwrap the end, the getting back home, the home, the time...unwrap the reward, it is the present. ♥️
  6. Be meek enough not to create burden, but strong enough to help lift them. Were you not in Love with your delusion, you’d be doing something else entirely. I for one am happy with what you’re doing. It is good to be your delusion. It is good for you to be mine. Like magic, a child blowing bubbles, this is possible.
  7. @WHO IS ?? “Whatever precious jewel there is in the heavenly worlds, there is nothing comparable to one who is awakened.” The Buddha (Sutta Nipata) “To support mother and father, to cherish partner and children, and to be engaged in peaceful occupation - this is the greatest blessing.” The Buddha (Mangala A powerful nonduality. “The root of suffering is attachment.” - WHO IS
  8. @throw-22 The medicine reveals how you just recreated all your suffering, via the story you identify with. There will be the Suffering of it being Let Go. You will show yourself all the barriers between you, and then your work can begin. Words don’t teach, and medicine doesn’t heal. They show you how to.
  9. If you let something go, it is gone. Nothing more could be done. If more can be done, it hasn’t been let go. Letting the perspective go, emotions follow it on out. Willingness is letting it go. What next? What do you want next? If resistance arises, let it go. Now has no past, it only pretends to. Now anything is possible.
  10. Knowledge is a veil, duality (appearance / illusion) . The ‘real’ of the feeling of knowing knowledge, is knowing the self derived from having forgotten the self. There is no actual duality known, only an idea of a knower and it’s knowledge. A being which is itself infinite intelligence recognizing itself, never actually knowing any thing. There isn’t actually any knowledge or a thing to know, You just appear that way. Duality isn’t perceived within nonduality, nonduality is known in spite of the illusion duality, like remembering in spite of having forgotten, but what was forgotten was No Thing / The Substance Of Not Knowing / You. A body isn’t dropped, there never was a body. Duality isn’t dropped, because it never actually was some thing, delusion is dropped, in recognition there isn’t any. There is only Being recognizing and knowing itself. If the cosmic joke is not funny, the joke is on “you”.
  11. @abrakamowse If there is infinite, you are infinite. If there is anything which makes distinctions, It is you. If there is any apparent effect, it is you. If you part out survival you create the distinction. So creation seems transcendent to survival. You are creating by default, but the distinction of survival is the duality of the thoughts about dying, or not surviving. If a creative artist adopts identity of a creator, it is still you and your creation which is you. You could knowing lose identity. You could unknowingly lose identity. You could knowingly create identity. You could unknowingly create identity. It’d always be you.
  12. The I realize what Osho means but see me as Osho “level”.
  13. Asleep, separate, material, physical... identified with the body. (While actuality is ‘not a body’) Awake, realized the actuality. Nothing actually happened with the “body”.
  14. I do not envy the pickle you’ve created. ♥️??
  15. @moon777light Babies? No. When you have one you’ll see, they do not aid in your survival. But I am not talking about the appearance of creating, I am talking about Creating. You create every appearance of every passing moment, your body, your thoughts, your perspectives, your internalizations, your choices, etc. You are the Creator of you, a dream of a life time....and “within” this, you are creating the life of your dreams. If you reduce creating to survival, you created that distinction.
  16. Neato! More please. Just a thought...lol...play the video on one device, while using voice to text on another, and you have a transcription which only needs a few corrections. Also, the phone tone is A, the background hum of the universe is C, referred to as middle C, which all sound and music is relative to.
  17. @Aakash The word subconscious is like the word nonexistent. Nonexistent...whatever one uses that word for, was a thought, not actually something which exists. Subconscious...used to refer to what you are not conscious of, and specifically implies it is ‘sub’, or ‘prior to’ what you are conscious of. The “subconscious”, is not a second mind nor some “other thinking”, it is your emotions, and emotions influence thoughts. It eludes you, because thoughts are linear and finite, and you are readily aware of them. “Holding” onto, attaching to, identifying with - thoughts & concepts...rather than letting them go...serves as a protective mechanism to not feel emotions, to not connect all of you together, to not be experiencing the actuality of the whole of you. You can let go on the cushion. You can let go while someone points out what you are missing / suppressing. You can breathe consciously from your stomach 24/7, and embrace every arising sensation & emotion, you can know all of you. And you are wonderful.
  18. @moon777light Excellent contemplations. Creating isn’t survival, it’s inclusive of survival, while transcendent of it.
