@Scholar No one could tell you what you are. It’s too good to be true! You’d reason it away with logic. I can’t say I blame you one bit. When I experienced God directly, not only was all of my logic wrong (wrong as in tiny and actually nonexistent), but there was a sensation in the head, a rewiring of the falsities with the truth that lasted a few days. The best logic is light years away from a drop of real-izing. When a memory would surface, it was met with the absolute truth, and each false memory / understanding, was the cosmic joke playing over for around two weeks. Almost nonstop love, joy, and laughter, euphoric refilling with correction. I had to work on capacity to handle the love for months. Seeing the simplest things, is so beautiful, I have to hold back tears until I’m alone somewhere. To not look like a fool in maya, even knowing it is me lol! At the same time, knowing how the cave works, is no reason not to share our experiences of Self, of absolute, of God. WIthout sharing the experience, the emotion, the dramatic night & day change in how life is experienced, etc, the trigger words of McKenna - agape, death awareness, etc, etc, do tend to limit the communication to a far greater extent than the cave analogy alone. It reduces it to conceptual, so the listener, imo, is completely justified to attempt to relate to logic offered, with logic.

Would you tell an astanaut who’s been to the moon, what the moon is like, and what it is not like, and that his sharing of the experience of the moon, is really just him using his logic? Just because you don’t go to the moon, doesn’t mean you can’t. You could. Until you do, everything said about it, to someone who has been, is transparent in it’s ridiculousness and absence of experience. There will never be a substitute for direct experience. You would never tell an astronaut who has walked on the moon, that no one could actually experience the moon. Maya says these things because her existence depends upon this line of logic.

@Sahil Pandit You sound like my wife ??

Love this one. Can’t say it’s funny though. Osho

Buzzed. Since 16.

Pretty much everything.

@NathanR I work out every morning and I eat plant based / raw foods. Protein and calorie wise, raw meal shakes are easy & taste great. Fake meats from the frozen foods section are getting better all the time too, taste wise. Many are high in protein. Vega bars are pricey but taste best Imo. I’m at about a 2% increase in weight lifted every few months though - not a competitive builder clip. I’m just doing about 30 mins a day. Here’s an explanation though from someone at a professional level, going vegan. Congrats on makin health & environment moves man. https://www.forksoverknives.com/vegan-bodybuilder-plant-based-diet/#gs.ZcxtuNM Here’s some vegan pro level builders with some useful insights on going from meat to plant based. https://www.menshealth.com/nutrition/google-employees-are-eating-less-meat Google’s started the slow change over too btw. https://www.menshealth.com/nutrition/google-employees-are-eating-less-meat

@isabel It’s relative to your thoughts some how. What do feather make you think of? What does a dead bird make you think of? How do you feel about them?

Just life. That I even am.

@JustinS hey now.

@Scholar What a great post. I don’t think anyone could think that through much more. Nice. The resolve is, all of this is you.

@Patang Lovely ❤️

@Saumaya Great share. Thanks!

@snowleopard #metoo

@starsofclay Thanks.

@MarkusSweden Relationships are there so you can learn more about others, and yourself. From your take on relationships, you reveal there is more to learn about yourself, specifically, from females. I find there are phases with ages too. Roughly 17-24, not interested in family, looking for who I am, what my potential is, etc. Perfectly fine. When after 24, having kids, that’ll bring a person right back to family and relationships. Not always, of course. You have forever for the solitude, trust me on that. Explore relationships. Or don’t.

@GrowingUp Enjoyed reading that. Thanks!

@Seed It’s beautiful! To big?! No! Cover the whole room with wanted!

@Joseph Maynor This hits like a ton of bricks when you realize there is only you. So anything you could “know”, is you. It’s a very, very, very, funny realization. In the illusion, there’s always more to learn, and more distinctions to be made, more understanding to be experienced, but this is very different than knowing. Thank you for this post. I’m laughing so hard right now. There are practices of detaching from thought, but I don’t think there’s a practice of not knowing.OMG that’s so funny.

@Patang ❤️❣️

@Ibn Sina OMG yes. We get more of what we focus on. So simple, hardly anyone can realize it. We’re all too busy being smart for that nonsense. Lol! The only thing I’ve seen “work” for this, is helping someone realize when they changed the relative point from themselves, to anyone else.

@Edvard I think it means “I don’t know”.

@George Fil That’s awesome and thanks, it helps to have an idea where you’re at. I think what triggered the notion of “So what F them” could be the mentality expressed by ‘them growing up and having to face reality”. As in, the falsity that triggers is there is no facing reality. They are creating their reality. It must be that you have something in your ‘reality’ which is not desirable, and you’re at a loss for how it traces back to you. Thus, a thought of resentment to the contrary.

@Patang I love this post! Thanks. Only thing I’d suggest, is that the past doesn’t store information. That’s a thought. I mean this in the sense of achknowledging that is a thought, aligns more with, overall, what you’re saying here. It’s just lovely. Thank you again. ❤️

@Patang right on. There is a supply, because there is a demand.
