@onacloudynight You might know each more claearly for trying them separately. Do you have time to try them before the retreat, to get a feel?

@Ampresus A surprising change in perspective, like a punchline, and the relief of laughter. It is very funny isn’t it?

@SriBhagwanYogi Have you read Stillness Speaks?

@Identity If there wasn’t a you, would there still ‘be’ opposites like external & internal? What is there without you categorizing it?

@bejapuskas I'm not Peter Ralston, but I'd chat with ya. Might be quite mutually beneficial. Send me a message if you're interested.

Welcome! 1. You're already doing it. You have the wrong idea of ego/self - It's conceptual, not physical. The 'death of physical' is the end of the falsity that there was ever such a thing as physical. Joy is. Concerns over physical, death, self doubt, worry, fear, lack - these 'cover' or veil reality / the joy - and keep your mind thinking, when you could be loving. 2. Someone confused you with 'physical death', understandably, you have equated it to suicide. Don't do that. You won't experience formlessness in the sense you understand it now. Your perspective of what you are, and what the world is will change. For the better.

@Emanyalpsid The questions were specific to your accusations, you didn’t answer at all. “Watch the videos” is like “read the Bible” no? Have you clarity on these things, yourself? I appreciate the reply though, have a great day man! ??

Yes. Totally. Life of music, listening, attending, gigging, playing & singing, etc - then years of silence - now the music is ‘back’, better than ever. Everything changed, though nothing changed. Like, wtf? Sammy Hagar was enlightened this whole time? 5150 is code for what?! “Best of Both Worlds”?! Wow. Oh, now I hear what you’re saying Dave Mathews, ok, “Save Yourself”, obviously. “Good love is on the way” ZZZZ.

I know a genocologist who embraces his desires as a human being, and is also married. He seems quite happy & fulfilled, in his ‘both’ solution, without suppressing, the ‘problem’ is no longer there, and he is very focused, competent, and internally successful (no pun pls). Sometimes when we think, we can miss we are thinking which is the “problem”. No overthinking, no problem. Nature is wise, even in, and especially in, bodies. Infinite Intelligence, at play.

@Aquarius In just looking at your avatar (pic), very beautiful, but folks might see the ‘scene’ there as dark, mystical, intense, and possibly an intimidating level of beauty for some. Certain people conceptualize such things as “shady”. Not to mention, (in the sense every word can carry connotations) - Aquarius peeps have a certain reputation, a sort of natural acceptance of infinity, whereas most people seem to seek grounding, centering, or falsity in comfort.

@Strikr ?....should I?

What are these “every other ways” instead of direct experience which you imply? Very interesting statement. What is this objectivity you refer to? “These teachers might say to go into your direct experience, this experience will not be objective as the teacher dissmisses every other way. They often tend to promote psychedelics in the quest which inhibits any objectivity. Which is especially potentially dangerous for troubled Young People.” Which teachers are you referring to? Which teachers, specifically, are promoting psychedelic use, without communicating that “troubled young people” should not be engaging? Thanks in advance for you response and for as much brevity and clarity as possible.

@Flammable ??❣️

@pluto Noticing now ?? ⬆️

@Timotheus You, are The One.

??❤️ Hey. Welcome back.

Do you see thinking with eyes?

Are the eyeballs body, or not body?

@Mikael89 Ok, in claiming it’s real, surely you know much, or at least somethings about it. Share what is known about the ego. Describe it, please.

If infinite could be finite, then it would not be infinite anymore. It IS infinite, so it must first forget it is infinite, and then experience being finite. This forgetting naturally brings the consequence of identifying with the brain & body, which is referred to as ego. But in actuality, there is only infinite. Notice imagination, love, intelligence, are not like the objects in the room. Though ultimately, no difference. You are this infinite, just haven’t remembered .....yet.

@Wisebaxter There might be a few people in your dreams at night, but when you wake up, there’s only one. This too, is a “dream”. (Just using the quotes because there’s not a word for the actuality, or rather, if I say a word to you, or you to me, then the point to be communicated is already falsified. The word nonduality is possibly the best pointer) Don’t start thinking about this though, as that’ll only take you further from ‘seeing’ what I’m saying. The usual suspects are the way (practices, psychedelics, retreats, etc). Thinking is the opposite ‘direction’. However, that silence you’re “in” - same over here (still an analogy though).
