  1. @WildeChilde Awesome! Very happy for your breakthrough, in freeing your mind from your past experience of witnessing drugs as used by others, and psychadelics used by you. That’s a big one man. I have not experienced masculine. Given that, to your questions, it sounds like you approached the experience of oneness, but were not in the vicinity of absolute. Very happy for you!
  2. @Shin Another great insight. Thank you Shin. Always on point! tee he he
  3. @Shin omg ? @MarkusSweden lol ❤️ Just having some fun. You’re doing the physics, and you’re in them and of them, but not them. Doing them, so you can be you, asking about them.
  4. @MarkusSweden What are your thoughts on the difference between no self, and knowing Self?
  5. @Mighty Mouse The absolute (forest), what you are, doesn’t change. That’s why we refer to it as absolute. It has to be experienced though. I would never in a million years have believed it no matter who told me. Of course you will not believe this. “It’s to good to be true” is a paradigm. It’s a lot like how someone experiences the change from the materialism paradigm. There’s no undoing the experience and going back to materialism once you’ve seen the illusion. Same with the absolute. After experiencing what you are, you could not undo it, because you are it. It can’t be experienced without being open minded. Just holding an assumption is enough to prevent the experience. Experience is beyond the wit, even for the most clever and learned of us.
  6. @pluto lol. What would you be doing?
  7. @MarkusSweden What does absolute enlightened mean, to you?
  8. @StarfoxEpiphany It seems to me alcohol suppresses, or disconnects us, from our emotions. It’s nice if it’s relative to not feeling connected already.
  9. @Patang ❤️??
  10. @Joseph Maynor @Natasha Ha. Yes, I was going to say the same thing. Lack of open mindedness combined with projection is a pretty tough one to undo. We’re all enlightened in the end though. No worries. lol - isn’t everyone’s ex like that! ?
  11. @Faceless Everything you just said, is reference of your experience. I was only asking about what I thought was a specific, and great experience, something to be cherished, and possibly shared - your experience of the One, of the change from materialism, to all as Self, seeing the illusion as it is for the first time, from living and dying, to eternal. This are fun topics for me. It sounds like maybe you were born enlightened, like the Dali Lama maybe. It’s interesting, pretty rare I think, just different than most. I hear you, not your thing and / or maybe you did not have what is being referred to as this ‘binary’ or definable experience, the big reveal. I don’t anticipate we all come into discovery the self in the same ways, that’s why I love to hear the stories. Perhaps you are just more fortunate than I can honestly comprehend. I don’t have any of the issues you mentioned, that’s why the story is worth sharing, for some people apparently. No worries. I’m good with both being in the now, without the monkey mind or thought baggage, and I enjoy sharing experiences too. I once biked 300 miles for a charity. When I’m talking with people who also love biking, we share our experiences...the hills, that one day with the 20 mph wind - uphill even! How great it felt to finish, in the rain even! How I had to change a couple flat tires. What our experience of ‘the miracle mile’ felt like, Etc. I just like sharing. We are different, that’s to be appreciated imo. ❤️??
  12. @GrowingUp wow man. It’s like I knew that stuff, but it just clarified in my mind a lot more. Thank you. I have some close friends in that process, and not that I’m about to ‘help them’ (not that I wouldn’t, I’ve tried, and would help in a heartbeat) but you eased my concern on their behalf a lot with the clarity. ??
  13. @Deep Yes. Success is the product (typically) of believing one can do what one set’s their mind to. No room for victim role, self doubt, etc. Yes to risks. I went into more debt than that to start a business. The only way to ensure not succeeding, is not to take risks.
  14. @Faceless Uh...since you’re asking, yes, it seems like a smokescreen. Like I’m just asking, what was your experience with green like? The moment you saw green. And you’re talking about a whole different thing, anything but green. But again, clearly you’re not into sharing your experience, I get it. Sorry. Maybe it’s really personal to you, and I stand to be more sensitive to that, and to me it’s something that can easily be talked about, like anything else. I expand a lot from being very open. Different strokes for different folks. (Dropped a “folks” in there, @Joseph Maynor, I love when you say “folks” ❤️)
  15. @Faceless That’s an easy one, both. You can be completely free. You can share your experiences with others. I am alone in crazyville right now. ?? Sometimes my wife says I’m open and direct, and people aren’t, and they get uncomfortable. That might be this. I do apologize if I was too forward or anything. I love you guys and I love the convo’s we get into.
  16. @Shanmugam it’s fine man. Thank you. Obviously this a me thing I don’t get yet. No worries. I got 2 in the queue then yours, and I am very much looking forward to reading it.
  17. @Joseph Maynor soooo...not into sharing experiences either? Is this like, a regional thing or something? Maybe I live where people do this? Lol
  18. @Shanmugam The curiosity is killing me. Why is it that you don’t just explain the experience? Wouldn’t that be the most efficient way to communicate the binary factor? As in, once you see this, well, then you’ve seen it, so, it’s pretty black and white. Are you like maintains the mystery for him or somethings? lol. It’s like you’ll say anything but that. I love you’re writing, and where you’re coming from, I don’t think you’ll take this as offensive or anything, just crazy curious.
  19. @Joseph Maynor I was asking about your experience, not theory. Kinda opposites.
  20. @GrowingUp To me the chopping wood carry water is in regards to how you would be still living your life, outwardly appearing the same, but your experience is completely different. The first ‘chopping wood’, is like regular old just chopping wood, relatively mindlessly, asleep- then after, chopping wood is an amazing, inexplicable, miracle. Same with water. Before, it’s just like... water, nothing notable, no biggie. After, that water is you! Impossible, except there’s the water!!! Lol. You’d still be free to do whatever you want, like you already are now, the difference is that you would know there is only you, so there’s nothing to fear, there’s no self doubt anymore. There’s also the serendipity, synchronicities, etc ?Ironically, a desire to help others with their consciousness kicks in, as that is the highest calling for the love which has become obvious as primary. I don’t see it that you weren’t for billions of years, and now are, and then won’t be. What you are has actually been perfectly consistent forever, including right now, and will also be forever. The illusion has us seeing things otherwise, seeing ‘things’ at all. There’s a purpose in that you are, but no purpose in anything you do (existentially). No reason not to create meaning and purpose in our lives in accordance with our authenticity though. That’s what we’re doing. Distractions, (imo) relative to Leo’s video, are in terms of a steadfast complete focus on raising consciousness. In those terms, they range from taking too long to shit, to a marriage. If raising consciousness is the primary desire, everything and anything is a distraction. The point (again, imo) is to realize the degree we are distracted. We are very very sneaky in distracting ourselves. This might help someone realize, for example, that jerkin it, or playing video games, is what’s keeping them from expanding their consciousness. Wasting time. Being - you’re never not being. Mindfulness & awareness should be practiced 24/7. Meditation is a time of nothing-but-practice. We can work, drive, converse, study, developing & pursing life purpose, etc...and be practicing mindfulness and awareness. Can you share with me the cliff notes on the work that you do? What have you found that really works in terms of helping someone out of alcoholism? Thanks man!
