@Joseph Maynor There’s God dreaming. That’s all. It’s critical to see for one’s self that the entire history which these terms come from is YOUR OWN ILLUSION. Nothing ever happened. Time is literally your illusion. All history is actually just the same illusion that you are seeing and hearing right now. There is no difference. It’s a facade if believed.

@Hardik jain There’s no us, this is actually up to you. Completely. Weird, I know. @Arman ?

@Timotheus I am not sure if I’m on the same page, but in trying to relate, I recall a period when I became without a position of self, falsely defined by comparisons and judgements. When I saw through my self, then a new life started, one without resistence, and without drive. Just freedom from resistence, and therefore from any need for drive. Everything got effortless, and I’ve been getting so much more done everyday, and enjoying the moment so much more. It’s impossible to put into words, can only point to it, but I was experiencing what I didn’t want, and that triggered a drive for what I want. Now I don’t see what I don’t want anymore. It’s like it disappeared from “reality”. Freedom is the only word I have but there’s the whole word / communication problem. There’s just no way to communicate an illusion in an illusion to an illusion in an illusion. Lol.

@Heart of Space Man you are in a good place. ❤️ ......what was this thing I said?

@egoless To know what you are is to see why your illusion.

@Timotheus Am I understanding you correctly, that you are more without anger and hatred, but you are questioning if that’s what you want?

@Thanatos13 It really can be as simple as stating what you want in life, and opening up about the obstacles that arise within and circumstantially. Talking it through. Meditating every morning. Taking care of ourselves, maintaining good health. Getting to a balanced place. Some inner peace. THEN, just consider psychedelics. Maybe read from a few authors on their experience. It will always, always boil down to your own though.

There’s a pattern evident of have or not having experienced the big reveal; and using the word ‘drugs’ vs ‘psychedelics’, ‘lsd’, ‘psylicibin’, ‘mushrooms’, etc. I don’t think anyone who has that experience would neglect to make a distinction, and just use the word drugs. People tend to remember which “drug” they experienced the truth with. Lol . Nobody’s on here talking about coke, or meth or anything for a VERY specific reason. If a snaws berry cured a headache, and you had a headache, you wouldn’t just say give me some berries! You would need snaws berries! Before the experience, there is no distinction possible, because the reveal hasn’t happened yet. Self identity is still conceptual, whatever that concept is, even if it is a “concept of no concepts”. ? It is extremely black and white, this matter. No grey whatsoever, when it comes to absolute. Absolute is about as good of a word as there is for it. But, the defenses kick in; tension, accusation, character attacks. That’s the same ‘self’ that goes though when the experience happens, and then we’re free of that mess, or at the least, we see right through it now. The practices make the trips awesome, and the trips make the practices awesome. Some synonyms for absolute; complete, full, infinite, pure, sheer, simple, unadulterated, unconditional, unlimited, unqualified, utter, entire, free, total, unabridged.

@Sahil Pandit I tripped like 15 times before I tripped alone in the woods. Take precautions. Don’t take too much too fast, it can set you back. Godspeed man.

The romance doesn’t salve the suffering, the suffering deminishes the capacity for romance. It is as simple as, how does romance feel. You’ve got to let things be simple. The bliss is in the extraordinary. Oooohhhhh❤️ To embody...there is no greater joy possible.

The word for the illusion is maya. Maya is constantly tricking you. Maya is all around you, and everywhere inside you. Everywhere. You will trick yourself, unaware it is maya.

@Faceless Same root as everything else. ❤️

@StrangerWatch Sweet movie. Gnosticism & Buddhism, what’s not to love! Lol. Matrix wise, in terms of you, and your life....who is the architect? What is attempted to be conveyed with his role in the movie? And much more pertinent to this post... what is the Oracle? ?

@Barbarian Number 8 I like your analogy. All is illusion, so overclocking an illusionary cpu follows the illusionary laws of physics. Speaking directly about consciousness, there is nothing being overclocked. So, yes, “overclocking” it is possbile and can be extremely beneficial, but in terms of what the outcome experience is, it’s relative to the rest of the illusionary mind, not just the event of “overclocking”.

This is a great post. Doesn’t it, like all the other derailments, boil down to experiencing for one’s self? If someone experienced it, they would no longer have axes to grind. Isn’t that obvious? Logic and making it to age 25, maybe 30, should be enough experience to see that for someone who has never even heard of or considered personal development. Haven’t we all experienced that the problem we have with others, or with the world, always turns out to be our own issue, that we hold against our ‘self’, that we were projecting? If you yourself have directly experienced that there is only you, it would no longer be so murky. Obviously, self deception is the root of all suffering, so without self deception, there would be no suffering.

Sometimes thinking prevents us from being aware of what is already so obvious to our deepest core. Only one way to experience the truth though! I hope you do one day, I really do. ❤️ IMO, it’s worth every bit of the intense dedication and discipline it takes to experience. There’s no supplement for self inquiry.

@StrangerWatch I hear what you’re sayin, and I feel I understand, but man, I’m saying a lot of suffering is rooted in the objective thinking, 1st hand, 2nd hand, 3rd hand, etc. There is nothing that could be objective, because there is nothing other than you. I’m not tryin to argue or anything. My intention is good. (Lol, objective humor there) Rock on man.

Reality is perfect. What you’re calling reality is your own illusion in the most literal sense. The “ego” is what “says” otherwise, but the ego is fictitious. In a nutshell, that’s the consciousness work to be done. Not sure why you reference what Leo thinks. You may have him on a pedestal. Understandable. Kind of unbelievable how he makes videos to help you and runs a forum to help you, all at no cost to you. Even when people here dump on him in a personal sense, he continues to maintain an interest in helping everyone with their consciousness work. Morality is completely subjective. There is no objective anything. All of science, religion, spirituality, etc etc are telling you this. Check out the ‘brains don’t exist video’. Your own suffering is not objectively bad, or objectively anything. It is being experienced first hand. If you were objective about anything about you, that implies there are two you’s. How many you’s are there? Obviously, One. You can’t use “everyone else” as a reference point. Everyone else is maya, illusionary. The way to be free of suffering, is to decipher what perspectives are causing it. Then to learn the truth about the situation. Then to allow what you’ve learned to change your behavior that is causing the suffering. I’m not saying it’s easy at all. That’s the inner work. It’s 100% of the game. Maya would have you believe otherwise, but without the beliefs, all that’s left is the truth. It’s a tough one to swallow, but when we become aware we are judging, we start to transcend it. (Your idea of objective morality is actually you projecting your own subjective morality) Have you tried isolating one or two practices that are designed for specifically what you need and making the time to do them? All of actualized.org serves (imo) solely to convince you to do the inner work. Eventually it is revealed to you that inner is all there is, and you are free of all this.

@Joseph Maynor That’s the thing though, both are not here. Reality is here. Maya is an illusion.

@StrangerWatch That’s not at all what I’m saying.

@Joseph Maynor It doesn’t. Obviously. If you’re holding the thought that it does, then let go of what you added.

@StrangerWatch Shocking to me. Shocking.

@StrangerWatch You’re missing the entire boat. Can’t transcend what you’re stuck in without serious determination in the practices. Given where you’re at, have you considered doing anything about your suffering for those less fortunate? You really do create your own reality. How you think is paramount to getting any further with the life you want. Resistant thinking like that, blame, commiserating - not headed anywhere.
