In the eyes of God, there is no wrong or right. God just is and that is the undeniable truth of existence, on top of that, a veil of separation can exist as in the mind of the individual which is maybe more a tool of guidance of god's totality of acting than to actually throw us into the illusion of ego. God is unity and its the plan is to unite and follow a harmonious order of balance that is the true force of perpetual creation.

You are a trickster and therefor a child of god.

Hi Actualized.org, Today I sat down to meditate and experienced something with much greater detail than I was aware of before. I start to let my body rest and feel gravity pull on me, feeling my own weight pressing into the ground, feeling all the bodily surface sensations. There is always a point where there is slight discomfort in the legs or feet when sitting down for a long period of time. I adjusted my body bit by bit and slowly was able to overcome being too attached to this discomfort and able to "surface" to my skin and head. Sensations being observed for what they are; sounds, lightflashes through the closed eyelids, internal movements, air flowing over the skin. I started to focus on micro-movenements, small concious attempts to do delicate smooth movements. For example let my palms rest on my legs and move my fingers very slowly, being aware of the velocity, direction at all time. The key here is to become more and more aware into deeper layers of subtleness and create a higher resolution of local awareness of the body. By slowly becoming more aware into more subtle levels of micro expressions one can start to move this concious experience of the self around and even start to expand the scope. Moving from the hands up the arms slowly to shoulders. Move the muscles in a smooth manner and keep the eyes closed at all times. You want to lose your visual experience which is dominant for 80% if not more, and use this to explore bodily sensations without being distracted. Slowly one can start to feel a clear trend in bodily awareness. At some point something very interesting happened to me. It felt like my concious inner body was being blown up like a balloon or my body was streched over my concious awareness like a sock. I remained calm and enjoyed the subtleness of this interesting heightens state of bodily awareness. The mind had become sharp too due to the strong self-presence attained by the process. Some thoughts that went through my mind imagined how prominent this experience was between spiritual awareness and the material body world. I felt like it resembled a small journey of going from small presence to fullness, or from being very aware of a small body area (residing in spiritual awareness) and then letting this awareness flow into the fullness of the body. As if water was breaching through an door but now this door was wide open. It was great technique to attain greater presence and I recommend others trying to follow up on the mental awareness steps and bodily techniques. Challenge yourself, focus on how aware you can become. Do you feel the awareness streching into your meat body and moving it around? How aware is your conciousness of that body and it's structures and senses. Hope you enjoyed my small read and are inspired to meditate more. You can do it, it's awesome!

Leo's new video about truth, hard to grasp in words, hope illustration can help. Basically the Truth is the all, the full moment which is only to be experienced, which is represented by the whole circle. Then relative truth's have a lower degree of validity which is based on the meta between axions and that this relation is a valid one. The Truth which is the whole circle can have infinitely many truths within all being infinitely interconnected, the fuller the circle get's the more visible it becomes that minor truth is directly connected to any other minor truth. The infinitely dense fabric of minor truths become the whole and if any minor truth moves the whole moves and everything is affected. Now you are the living Truth, the perfect harmony of the universe has resonated the present moment in exactly the way it is because of everything else that has ever happend, now That is intriguing. Absolute Truth = Whole, Relative Truth = Meta of truths.

Spirtuality only shows who you really are, it teaches you to be more humble and not be too attached to the life you live now with it's ego pursuits. If you dive all the way in spirituality regular life in society become one big joke.

I think the better question to ask is not does free will exist but WHO is it that is in control? Who are you and what embodiment is exhibiting the act of will-power? Are you, as in what you think the self is, in control of everything that is within the self? Do you control all your organs completely by will or are they autonomous organisms inside of a larger embodiment? You see, the more organs working together the more abilitity to freely move, think, make better choices that improve survival for the embodiment. You could say complexity gives rise to power to have greater control over the embodiments survival or free-will. The illusion however is that you are a single identity whereas you are consisting of many foreign organisms working together. The will power is the whole working together harmoniously and in-balance, expressed by improving survival and better choices. Will-power is love for the whole, the better you sustain the embodiment of the self, the more will-power you gain. Free-will is a pursuit of the ego, the illusion of self as single identity to prove it's mono-autonomous existence and control. The truth is that we have to embrace that we are more than what we think, bigger and complexer, that absolute control is a mere illusion but that love will bring us a lot closer to what we collectively want to achieve. Cheers.

@Ethankahn Got it. Although very deep trances are calm overall imo. Not exactly "emotionless", the emotion there is tranquility which is a very still but full/complete feeling.

@Leo Gura I've tried to understand, feel and quite the mind to experience what you were talking about. For me and probably most other people excitement goes paired with great new insights. I came to the understanding that this feeling of excitement reflects a mind that experiences something that is yet not known and outside of itself. Is Tranquillity, the absence of excitement, the final state of trance and superhuman concentration? As long as there are on-going thoughts/emotions of self-reflection one hasn't completely dissolved yet into infinity?

Pick any game you like, why do you play it? The game itself is an illusion, bytes depicted as virtual pixels on a screen, you play because it is fun and engages you in an emotional way that reflects something from the more "real" world. Illusion does not equal bad, evil, to avoid, empty, dull. Illusion are tools, that can be used to grow/learn. Just be mindful of the game of life, don't get to caught up with it and you should be fine.

Reality is only what you believe it to be. What is the purpose to cling to the thought that choice is a delusion? See your mind creates a state of misery because feel trapped in this world where you might think nothing matters and everything is set. Maybe the thing that is being taught is that one should transcend mere thought and feel one with the now. Like the example of building a sand castle as a child, there is no need of a concrete goal as long as you are content what you are doing here right now. Stop thinking about what future results will achieve, be here for the sake of being.

Just create one perfect AI that has a human online identity, it will create it's own art/music/videos and sell it online in it's own webstore. You will only be able to tell if someone is real if you have seen them in person (ignoring cyborgs here hehe).

@Sven What do you gain by telling or claiming to anyone that you are enlightened? Wouldn't someone who is enlightened be content with how the worlds is without feeling the need to interfer with it?

Is the claim to be enlightened driven by egoic pursuit?

@Viking You are overstimulated I had this too. Get some solitude, it takes some time to appreciate the things that are now present but feel empty. Best you can do is go into nature, hike, explore a bit maybe with small tent and turn off your phone. Surrender yourself to the senses and become one with the surroundings.

@Cortex *The edge of the universe is where your body ends.* Think about it, the real edge of the universe is only percieved as the end of perception, where the body ends the unknowing begins.

"How can i deal with realizations of deep existential truths?" Accept whatever arises, breath in breath out, keep that continious flow of energy going through your body without restraint.

I would check out my thread, people shared their most memorable games here that might be worthy for you to check out.

I think those who access the Truth fully are often Genius people who see how realities intricate web creates 'things' from the all.

Hello forum members, When I was younger I played a lot of Runescape; it is a massive online multiplayer game where you can do quests, fight monsters, do various skills, mini-games, etc, a big competitor at that time was World of Warcraft. The game has given me so many fun hours (probably spent too much playing it), being immersed in this world medieval world with dragons and many other fantasy animals stimulated by imagination a lot. The game had this huge map with all kind of exotic terrains and sceneries where you could travel to and this urge to explore and see so the diversity of life in the world has stayed ever since. One of the things has motivated me to learn everything was the variety of skills you could learn in the game. If you were doing quests in the game you had to have some required skill (level) and would use these to solve puzzles, gather food, combat and much more. Quests therefor were also my favorite activity in the game, they enabled me to get to locations others couldn't wear special armor and create new ways to earn in-game money and at last were lots of fun! This relationship of learning new skills and becoming really good at them and broadening the number of new quests I could do a discover even more was my insight that this doesn't only apply for the game called Runescape. Real-life is really alike, quests can be seen as projects you want to do or job requirements or even skills to survive outdoor in the wild knowing how to fish or craft/build your own utilities or shelter. I also saw that learning a wide variety of fields will enable me to connect the dots of how the big picture comes together and understand what is important in a certain niche to actually pursue. Learning a niche is nice, you will learn in-depth details how things work, but often you learn many things you will never apply or don't see direct application for. Following this path of learning everything also put me onto the path of becoming a sage after I encountered @Leo Gura videos and forum. I feel a sense of fulfillment when helping others with my insight or understanding. I want to contribute to, create and discuss things in a valuable and knowledgeable manner. Getting every "skill" in life to 99 will probably take more than a lifetime but the goal is set My main goals now are to learn and understand most of the mathematics so I can apply this in many things like probability and statistics, chemistry, physics, biology, computer science, art, philosophy, data analysis (big data to understand the growth of any system) and much more. I found out that learning mathematics and then creating projects using computer science/programming can be a great and fun way to learn and build many small projects that will in the end greatly help you in understanding all these topics and their correlations. Well, that was about it, how Runescape inspired me as a game till today. If you have any games that inspired you, as an artist, a developer, philosophical, whatever it might be, please share! Everyone likes a good game, which ones did leave you inspired or amazed the most.

@7thLetter I do trade cryptocurrencies, commodities and now also some forex & stocks. Cryptocurrencies are very volatile and non-regulated if you trade them only use what you can afford to lose, especially altcoins that are less known and have lower liquidity and easily manipulated by "news". I made a good buck trading and buying early 2017, value has dropped a bit but overall have been able to keep my earnings versus people who lost the majority, which is probably the most essential part of trading (how to keep it). Crypto is at the moment not the best place to be in, only if there is a strong reversal in this bear trend I would buy a deep dip when conditions are fully oversold with decent stop-loss. Stocks don't look extremely good either but I do expect them to make a nice bull trap before entering a longterm bear market 2019-2020, especially Amazon is a bit oversold, people are panicking and the dollar index is rising (hoarding USD). There will be a tipping point where people will start to invest in longterm primary goods that will "keep them safe", fueling a sudden rise in online buying again (Amazon will profit from this), the economy will get worse, especially luxury goods and services will suffer. Investing in anything that focuses on off-grid, self-independence, primary needs will be a good business. It will be good to look for DXY to top and reverse, some hindsight clues are bearish divergences, USDTRY might be an interesting pair to trade since it has had a very volatile move and is likely to retest some highs, just be careful with leverage.

@7thLetter Can you explain me a bit more what flipping is again? Funny thing is that I'm professional trader too IRL, Runescape thought me how clans manipulate the market by buying up lots of inventory and then letting price rise while they dump on those other "clan mates" who think they will all be making money too. Haven't really played RS in years so not sure if it's still possible.

@Sahil Pandit Sounds like you had a great time playing that game!

I mainly get acne from caffeine, it releases stress hormones in the body and worsens the skin. Get rid of it!

Rationality over emotions. Always be completely honest, if someone is doing bad and being destructive in someway just tell it right in their face, they need it otherwise they will walk around with the idea something is right to do or continue. You are doing this to make their lives better by directly facing them with their problems head-on. Be direct, don't make a fuss, do what you say, always show your honest opinion don't be afraid to speak out loud (people value this). I can see a very clear correlation between emotions and truth, emotions often water down truth when there is pain but can also make things look better when you are overly excited. Truth and a clear vision is when the mind is calm.
