  1. @SoonHei Look at the hand, as if there is no one to ask a question to.
  2. @Leo Gura Right there. Infinite Humor.
  3. @Revolutionary Think You might be missing the infinitude he is pointing to. He’s tasked himself with, rather, dedicated his life to, communicating that which can not be believed, fathomed, or understood - without doing the work for yourself. I think a good case could be made, that he is being gentle and encouraging, given it’s your life we’re talking about.
  4. All of what you mentioned are thoughts. Separate between thought/belief, and direct experience. Start with “I was born”.
  5. it is the process of turning consciousness onto itself. google ‘self inquiry.
  6. @Sockrattes If you do anything “unconsciously” that is still you doing it. If you do something “consciously”, that is still you doing it. There is no second being or thing which you could impose free will upon, it is literally all you, so free will is a thought, which is rooted in not knowing there is only you. Determinism is the same. A poetic way to express this is, you are beating your heart, dividing cells, etc, so there can be this dream, this story, this experience. Imagine how lame and taxing it would be, to have this life experience, while voluntarily beating your heart, breathing, dividing cells, etc. That these things are being done, and “you are not doing them”, is precisely the evidence that you are. Try to find the line which separates you which types words, and you which beats the heart. There is no such line. This is the nature of “illusion”. 99.99999% of what is taking place in the body, “you” are not conscious of, “you” are not “doing”. We ignore that, and instead look at the .000001% (choosing) and believe we are a separate, choosing, entity. This is the nature of a probabilistic dream. But when we stop ignoring, when we start inquiry - we start “connecting” (there was never a disconnection) with the Infinite Love, and Infinite Intelligence we truly are. That “other” 99.99999% of you is always there, unfathomably patient. Look at your finger. There it is. Right there. All the proof you could need. Evolution, your birth, your parents, the sun, the earth, the moon, outer space, cells, atoms, etc - the greatest illusion. All just so you could be “you”. If that’s not love, nothing is.
  7. You don’t remember, and you haven’t remembered yet, and so you think there is a hand in infinite consciousness. Write a story, in which there is a character, a person, in a world, which is governed by physics, and is so convincing, the person assumes it’s reality, and then imagine the story happening from the view of the person. Then imagine one of the things the person does, because the person believes it is the person (not knowing it is the author and the story which is being imagined) is say that if The person realized it is not the person, the person could turn his hand into a tentacle. The falsity is that the person still believes it is the person, and that it is real, and that the hand is real, and that God is other than the person.
  8. I should be more specific, I am not suggesting you are the real person and other people are zombies. I am saying the interpretation of what you’re seeing, as separate objects, people, etc, is in actuality, you. There is only Being, the role of the brain is delusion, or, thinking & attaching, which leads to a concept of “I am this person” “that is that person”. With self inquiry, investigation, thought is revealed to be false in it’s entirety (useful in ways), and everything - persona, personality, memories, “separate entities”, etc - is revealed to be groundless, nondual, love, intelligence, these are facets of The Infinite Being. So, if I was to hold a belief that I will be happy when I have someone else, to love and be loved, I would be mistaking love & happiness for a product of a causation and or relationship , and missing the love & happiness are my true nature. Or more simply, if I say, I’ll be happy when I meet someone - then I just added a contingency, a condition, and because I believe it, I won’t be happy until I meet someone. But without the condition, and with self inquiry, I could discover that love is real, and I am that.
  9. @Mikael89 If I am not you, you’re lost in the falsity of identification with the body / brain. You have no direct experience that anyone else exists, or that anyone else is thinking. These are all assumptions, and they are false. This attachment to thinking / falsity explains your experience or lack of, with chakras. Do you see the connection? The, two sides of the same coin?
  10. @lmfao Awesome! Also, for the hunch, have you tried, when walking, simply extending the each step (each foot) a little bit further back that’s you have been? It lines shit up.
  11. ?? It is easy, default, to forget you are creating your own reality, - Having forgot you are creating it, falling asleep, believing “you” are “in something”. You are not an object “in something”. Your sensations / emotions have never done you wrong, - thought says “ignore those sensations / emotions”, “push on”, “get real”, “suck it up”, - “just continue living your life and suppress all that nonsense”. You are Joy. You are Happiness. You are Love. Thinking.
  12. @Elisabeth Freedom. Not meaning. What good is the greatest meaning, in solitary confinement of conceptually living? What will a miserable person contribute to society (their misery)? What will a joyful free person contribute (Joy)? The self honesty is the variable. It is fine to convince ourself that there is meaning and worth in what we do other than our own experience of it, but then, you have these issues, because it’s false. If you have experienced being anything other than you, then by all means, tell me how foolish this is.
  13. You are not a person, there are not other people. Try to consider that you assumed this from day 1, but it was never true.
  14. (I haven’t seen that video yet) Awareness has identified with the body / brain, that a person was born, in this family, on this earth, etc. Tons of concepts are being employed as filters ‘covering’ now. Yoga helps the intensity of focus on now, on actuality, vs the mind wondering and applying thought patterns to now. The key, is, forget the concept of “trusting someone”. In actuality, there isn’t someone else, so “trusting someone” else, is conceptual. How much of your now, is missed, as in not lived, due to living conceptually, ‘in your head’? Why are you even looking to trust someone? Why are you even holding the belief there is someone / someone else? Can you see how when you say “he” is contradicting himself, it is actually on the foundation that you are believing he is not you? Thus you are in actually contradicting yourself.
  15. @AlwaysBeNice Thanks, and yeah I agree on the ‘amazingly unique every time’ for sure ??. Reminds me of the elephant and the blind men.
  16. One electron without resistance could appear as every electron.
