@kieranperez Great to hear man ❤️

You’ll be a great sage. You’ve got the best teacher.

When you’ve got it, really got it, so viscerally you can literally taste it - when you’ve got it and you know you’ve got it - let it go.

@Gligorije I’m not sure what you’re asking.

@Sven So happy for you! You’re totally right. There’s just no point thinking about the past when there is now.

@Sven Was there any past in that now?

? Me too.

@Matteo My post was in addition to the previous ones, I wouldn’t rule anything out. It sounds like you have tried damn near everything. After 20 years of seeking, that resonated. I am not saying to substitute, I am saying to actually transcend, to awaken. We can only point for each other, what I am pointing to, you can check in your experience now. If you want to, let me know what you find. If it feels right, we’ll continue. You can see? Visually, with your eyes?

@Nahm I hope you didn’t get lost in another now. ?

The question was, what is your definition (connotation) of the word, illusion. (Vs why we hold beliefs) I see your point though, it’s a good one. But, what if resistance is the opposite? You might not know, if you’re holding on to a belief.

I agree. “Causes resistance to reality as it is” - is just a belief. It doesn’t actually say anything. But now you know that, so... You’re much closer. Have you googled the definition of illusion?

Now we’re gettin somewhere. How do you know an illusion “causes resistance to reality as it is”?

@lmfao Yes. “...an illusion is a belief or distortion.” How do you know that’s true?

Fear tells you exactly where you need to look.

What is “Reality as it is”?

@Sven We can check our direct experience. Go to that now which that happened in, and when you come back to this now, I suppose you’ll know, unequivocally, for yourself.

When did it happen though?

What actually happened?

How do you integrate the past?

@lmfao What’s an illusion, as in, what does that word mean to you?

??❤️How could you trade this moment for a past or future moment?

@Mihael Keehl ??? Thanks for sharing!

If you’re either, they’re the same. If they’re different, you’re neither.
