@egoless https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/18215-what-is-the-ego/ Take a look at the responses through the lens that the word ego could be free will, or subconscious. Might be useful. ✌️

@Shanmugam More discriminate than seeing authorities as right or wrong. This is the duality game...there are 6 more who say the opposite! More fundamental than assumptions one knows how ‘others’ think, more deep-seated than a feeling of need to quote ‘others’, more intrinsic of direct experience than what teachers can say with words. More perceptive than ‘has to work on reaching’ - as a reactive dualistic perspective on what is a a completely open ended expansion of consciousness. More all encompassing than being outside of psychological time in the awareness, actualized being outside of physical time; times to go to work, times to eat lunch, times to leave work, etc. Deeper than the duality of these things implying any ‘craving’ - more clarity on projections in interpretation & perspective. Without freed consciousness, ‘another’ ‘must’ have cravings, ‘another’ ‘must’ have seeking, no. Expansion does not need duality, it only holds it back, keeps status quo. And then there is access through consciousness such as out of body, paranormal, inconsistent ‘reality’, premonition, interaction with Aliens, etc, etc. There is nothing “done” about infinity. You are all that is, the bar is were you place it, if you place it. Or not of course.

If there are not deeper consciousness states, then why do some enlightened people refer to / post the words of teachers, and ancient masters in their responses? I mean, why wouldn’t they just say what comes to mind, since they are equally enlightened? They could simply reference their own previous experiences.

@Deep well said man.

@Monkey-man Named for direction / flow. The pos / neg terminology is arbitrary, and electrons aren’t even things, other than determined by the movement previous (leptons, quarks, etc) Technically, an electron is a lepton, and even more technically, there’s only one electron, and it doesn’t exist at all, and it’s you. Seriously. Comparing love to a ‘physical’ component is like comparing the ocean to a drop of water in the middle of it. Pos & neg charges don’t exist, they are the fundamental fields of duality which constitute the illusion. There are countless fields, and they are illusionary.

@Monkey-man The charges could have been labeled Frank and Edward instead of positive & negative, and the atom still wouldn’t exist.

Direct experience is without your person, without illusion, only the absolute, which is what you are - this is why the word direct is used (no senses, no thought, no person). It’s the most worthwhile experience in any human lifetime, imo.

@Timotheus carry on then.

@Deep nah. That I am discontent or hoping for anything is a projection from your limited dualistic understanding.

@Angelo John Gage Reading the doc you posted led me to trying this out https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HHshOvzERHQ. I liked it a lot. Hope you dig it.

@Gligorije In addition to the usual suspects (practices & psychadelics).... learn to play guitar and sing, and write songs. Great for flow of ‘zone’ and creativity, learn discipline & dedication too, and gigs are great for confidence and as a social outlet.

@Tearos We ain’t doin shit. You alone bro. I do love you though. ❤️ How couldn’t I!

@Angelo John Gage Thanks for posting that. Great read in it’self, let alone the context / situation it was created in.

Psychedelics can do this. Without a proper foundation, you’ll revert back. Without continued alignment, you’ll revert back. Homeostasis is something to be very aware of. The traps of having figured it out, and being right, and knowing, are things to be aware of.

@Deep I thought samadhi was it, then the revealing there is only me was it, then inconsistent reality presented itself and wow, that was it, then aliens presented themselves and holy shit that was “it”, then this everpresent unconditional love flowing through everything bringing me to my knees crying everyday was “it” for sure. How could there possibly be more I thought. Now it appears infinite could not be binary, unmistakable, or ever “done”. I think I’m getting comfortable being the fool over and over again. Very fun. Who fuckin knows what else there is.

@Timotheus What’s she got there? A protein bar, a dildo? What’s happening there?

@Leo Gura snailed it!

@Andre Quinonez Yes, the awareness is what is different.

@Tearos “They”, are you.

The absolute is what you are. If you haven’t directly experienced it, then yes, what you are is just an idea - to “you” (another idea).

He knows Hawking was his rationalist doppelgänger. There’s ony slightly more matter than antimatter, so he knows it’s coming.

@abrakamowse Thanks. @TheEnlightenedWon Care to elaborate on ‘realized all over the place”? They’re def my favorite stories.

I already answered the first question in this thread Could you paste it? - the question and answer you’re referring to.Thanks. My question is, what if Helen Keller was bluffing?

@MisterMan Not sure why it posted 3 times. Makes me look really aggressive. Lol.
