@Aaron p You can’t think and breathe from your stomach at the same time.

@Recursoinominado When / where did you pick up that thinking / belief?

A true guru is like a psychadelic in that both reveal they don’t exist. You can continue believing they are enlightened, and you are not, but that won’t hold up to scrutiny. Any twoness is oneness - youness, Nothingness. They’re you. It’s futile because its false, so you have to repeat resistant thoughts to continue to believe this lie. Of course you’re depressed. You’re attempting to reduce what you are to finite. Stressful “path”. Lighten up. You’re in the set up. Try to see the punchline. Life is not serious. Don’t listen to me either. Ask yourself what’s true.

That’s your idea of success / reality, and as a vision of a future you yourself would want, it sucks - as in - it’s not true for you at all, and will never inspire. You are your own reality, shared objective reality is illusionary. There is no reason that you can’t be realized, actualized, a millionaire, a minimalist, spiritually fulfilled, devotedly compassionate, and meaninglessly drunk in the divinity of freedom / love.

@Aaron p Because you are infinite, Truth, and when you ‘shine the infinite light of awareness’ on anything finite, it reveals it’s not physically “real”, and not even ‘there’. Anything focused on and deconstructed disappears in scrutiny of what it truly is (you). Try to reframe this inquiry as a small rather than ‘big’ question. The simplest most efficient possible scenario is true. Thinking will have you believing there’s an objective “world” “you” are in. Awareness is aware of what actually is.

@GafaRassaDaba That sounds like a really rough entry and I feel for you. You must have been pretty open minded before the trip, to have such a glimpse. I hope you can remain open minded. As you’ve already experienced, sometimes what you know most, turns out to be opposite, and sometimes the depth makes precisely that difference. Psychadelics are a throw of the dice, I wouldn’t rule them out & assume you’ve digested the big picture, but I would look into some daily practices & theory to build a foundation first. As an analogy, I feel like you saw the photo, and now as you experience more, and surrender, let it settle, the details come more into focus, making all the difference. Some find freedom in infinity, some find unification in no-self, some find inner peace in love, some an effortlessness & synchronicity in their days. All of this is for you too. All of it. So if you can empty the cup again, there’s more. The one thing we can’t do, is filter now, through a lens of the past, through a memory, through a projection. That, begins the weaving of an “I” which “knows”. On a more personal, and relative note - Yogananda was awakened as a fetus. You might be one of those rare birds born with high consciousness, but not yet aware of this. There may very well be a GafaRassaDaba sized map in this yet.

Beautiful.

@GafaRassaDaba What are you finding unpleasant?

@Itay Spiegel That’s a very solid glimpse! The absolute in what’s attempting to grasp the absolute, so rather, ‘ungrasp’ everything else.

@Nevon Awesome!

The impossibility of appearance of imperfection is the perfection. The consistency of consciousness is incomprehensible magic, such that there appears to be other than you, or, a ‘material objective reality’...earth, universe, spacetime, etc. So perfect that the perfection is questioned, as if it were other than you, questioning.

@Cortex Can you describe this “ I “ which is experiencing this fear?

@Serotoninluv I can relate. A 4g tea trip a while back comes to mind ? I contemplated who scolded, who was told, and was able to resolve on a retreat alone. Took a lot of trips though. Really hearin ya on that day you spent with the woman. I spent a few hrs with a woman who owns a kriya yoga studio a couple days ago, and it was just magical. I was very aware we are already in the mystical place. ??

@Serotoninluv For sure. Both seem true.

@MrDmitriiV You can know what happens when you die by knowing what’s happening right now.

@spicy_pickles Awesome. You can do it!

@MarkusSweden I don’t believe those thought trees. There is no finite you to fit into a finite world, that’s the illusionary separation / confinement, of thought. You are already enlightenment, you are already the infinite awareness in which those thoughts appear to pass through. There is nothing nor no one you need, you are already whole and complete. You are already this Now, in which all appearance comes and goes.

@Mikael89 Precisely. ❤️??

@MarkusSweden If I’m not mistaken, you very recently posted the complete opposite of this. Liberation. What are you doing which causes such ups and downs?

You feel the way you feel, from thinking the way you think. But you don’t have to remain in conditioned thinking / perspective. The “world” doesn’t even exist. If “it’s negative”, your perspective is negative, not the world. The world is an illusion of finite duality, you can see it any which way you want, because you are infinite. You can do practices which reduce overthinking, and then bring the cessation of thinking all together. You can be fully aware, of the Love you are, unobstructed by thinking. Love can change ‘the world’ right before your eyes, because love is the world and your eyes. Your person does not ‘create love’, Love created your person. You have entirely underestimated reality and what you are. That’s the good news, because you get to wake up. Imagine being fully aware you created this universe, and every detail of every person ‘in it’. If you don’t like market & competition, then stop putting any focus on it. Stop focusing on what you don’t like, and don’t wan’t - and you’ll stop getting more of it. The opposite is also True. If a perspective is unpleasant, unfulfilling - why do you hold it? Are you not free to see how you like? Why believe your thoughts? Let go. Do the practices. Let go. Do the practices. Let go. “I can't wake up.” Yes you can. That “I” can not, because you made it up, and your overthinking is keeping you convinced. Self Inquire until you know the Truth. “What I mean is that I can't exit this reality, and enter one more desirable, as one does in the case of waking up from a dream.” This is a dream. Look around. That is a dream. Wake up. ❤️
