@Ramu @Heart of Space lol. I agree. I don’t prefer him. I think he’s a good example of distinctions in intelligence and consciousness though. I’m not even suggesting he’s overall intelligent, but if you wanna make 3 billion dollars, he could actually tell you first hand how. Consciousness though, I don’t see working in that way. I laugh every time I see it. It’s genius.

@StephenKNo. Compassion involves the illusion of two.

@Patang You can experience unconditional love.

@Nexeternity Great insights man. Thanks for sharing. Just humbly doing the work, gettin it done....those are the guys you gotta watch out for! Just kiddin man. Very happy for you!

@egoless Other people’s experience doesn’t add up to anything for me. It’s interesting, I like hearing about it, but it’s not a tool I can use, just pointers to tools I can use. It’s fun to talk about, and I love learning, but, experience is the only way to know. I’d be speculating on anyone else. It is pointless, imo, trying to make distinctions on “someone else’s” enlightenment. I think you are wise to be open minded in this regard. Trying things for yourself, and being honest with yourself about where you’re at, and openly asking questions. Keep doing that, and you’ll never be “stuck” in being right. Ya know what I mean?

@Mighty Mouse anytime. ❤️

@Mighty Mouse Was just curious. Not fishing. I see you are not comfortable talking about your experiences. I’ve been there too. No worries man. The practices are sound man, have faith in em.

@Faceless I hear that man. I can really relate. If someone would have told me years ago that awareness was transcendent to thinking, I would have thought that was ridiculous. But, after years of meditation, in hindsight, I realize that was just the nature of my thinking. I am so thankful I relied on my own experience.

@Mighty Mouse No biggie if you’re not comfy sharing. I know it’s a vulnerable topic.

@Faceless What has your experience with psychedelics been like so far? Like, which ones, what amounts, how was your experience, etc?

@Mighty Mouse What was your enlightenment experience like? Did you use practices, psych’s, self inquiry, maybe all of those, none of those? Also, what was your experience of the absolute like? What did you learn about yourself? Thanks in advance for sharing. I am not asking for advice, I am am curious about your experiences.

@Amadeusz Trump’s built a financial empire through high intelligence, without the baggage of ethics or authenticity. He reallly highlights the difference between intelligence and consciousness, which is why he is the president today. The median relates to him, though he does not relate to the median.

You know from investigating the suffering! The only way to continue suffering, is to ignore this, which is to assume you already know this, but in truth, don’t. If you ignore it, persevere it, then you have learned nothing. If you sit with it, face it, you can begin to see the source is you, and your perspective, and the choices you have been making. Through facing one’s of fear, we liberate ourselves.

Skepticism means I am not right. @Thanatos13

@Viking cosmic nihilism doesn’t tell us anything, it’s made up. An outward projection of not having gone inward.

Seeking insight or answers outside of the self can be exhausted and enlightenment perceived as the delusion of ‘others’, seeking the true self within, ‘others’ are revealed to be self, and enlightenment realized. The extent to which we deceive ourselves in this matter is commonly underestimated and merely an obstacle of ego.

@Faceless Have you seen that all is thought induced projection? It helps in terms of distinction, escape, from the materialist paradigm.

@Heart of Space There it is!!! ????

@lens +?

@Him If you’re asking, then that definitly wasn’t it. If you experience your own death, you know it.

@Thanatos13 You tripped with no foundation, no practices behind it. You tried to experience the absolute with baggage. Doesn’t work that way. You tripped in 1st grade when you should have went to school and tripped in 12th grade, so to speak. Get over it man. You’re not winning any prize self loathing. Just procrastinating. Good luck. It’s worth any sweat, blood and tears. Good luck

@StephenK Yeah, me to?, through meditation. It’s delightful. I thought “this is IT!”. Lol. Later through meditation, I experienced the ‘oneness’ I though OMG “THIS IS IT!”...then experiences later revealed to me that in hindsight, I was really just finding the dance floor. Later...still practicing.....then...we’ll...I experienced a completely different IT, and IT is IT, no questions left on the absolute, the real me, real you. The void is not thins @Thanatos13 . The void is some drunk chick walking down the road pointing out the dance hall to you. She don’t know nothin, but who cares, you’re here right? @Thanatos13 If someone asks you what IT is, what the end all no fuckin doubt about it grand mother F’n finale’ is....and you’re not laughing your ass off...then you don’t get the joke yet, and you have SO much more to experience. Don’t listen to highly intelligent people who make amazing cases for the void as the absolute. It’s not. They don’t know. Just straight up ask them what they’ve experienced. They’ll either keep intellectualizing, or all of a sudden have something they need to go do. Maya is at it’s best in OZ, do not be fooled. This is because they are in the exact same tough place you’re in right now, minus the balls to be open and talk about it. Good for you man. Now lighten up!

@Thanatos13 You haven’t seen shit yet. That’s why you’re afraid. I know the void well. Don’t tell me about the void.? You did psychedelics, tasted the barrier / void. That’s huge, but you stopping working on yourself, because you think you saw the whole show. You did not. You’re not going to see beyond that void without doing the innerwork like the rest of us. Smart does not count for shit on this map. Let that go. Right does not count for shit either, it’s the very thing that prevents you. If you weren’t intellectualizing the hell out of things, I think you’d realize that the path has always been within. The work to be done, is clearing the path WITHIN. That thing you fuckin hate in your life. - pull your head outta your ass, put the rage against the machine on, and get it going. GET GOING. In other posts this would sound boastful, but I’ve been to the void many times in just the last year. I have been ‘beyond’ it. I know the territory you’re having trouble with. I’m trying to give a map. Take note, I am asking for nothing in return. No church to join, no charity to donate to, and I obviously don’t give a shit wether you think I’m “right” or not. LOL! Think about that. What possible motive could I have??? Love is nothing to fear. Not if you’re going to get this done. You got out of Kansas, but you never made it to Oz, let alone, to see the wizard. There is SO much more. You can’t go to Oz with bags of shit. You do the work, the practices every day. You don’t slouch, you learn, every day. If you need to cry, then cry. If you need a punching bag go get one. But, get going dude. Our clocks are ticking.

@Preetom Yeah. Thank God for that man.

@Alien we all are. Lol ?
