She is speaking from the absolute. Yes, in the absolute sense, all things are what they are and will never be anything else. No matter how unenlightened you are, in the spectrum of eternity, you are already enlightened in the absolute. We have been doing this for eternity, and we will keep going. She is less trying to teach seriously but simply sharing the absolute truth through her, which will not resonate with or truly be understood by the majority of the people except those who are already awake and enlightened (or at least highly developed spiritually). For most people, they need serious/practical spiritual/epistemological teachings that can move them up the spiral. However, this is only considered if teaching is considered as important to that being (the teacher). After awakening, all beings are free to choose what they wish to do or experience. So they are free to place importance on anything they wish, they may value serious teaching, or they may just speak through their intuition. She plays more as an example of a type of awakened being and speaking truth to those ready to hear it, but not really as a teacher who can help raise the consciousness of the masses. The concept of cessation/desirelessness is a deep and important one on the path that will lead to a deeper state of beingness. But most people are not at the point on the path where they are ready to truly reach this understanding. These concepts can still be important seeds that might lead to awakening or insights later on as a person develops into higher states of consciousness. But many might also misinterpret them and become confused or stuck. So one should consume teachings from a wide range of teachers but always verify them through their own direct experience before believing in anything. If you had direct experiences of God, you would understand what Anna said on an experiential level instead of intellectual beliefs, and thus you would not get stuck on them because you did the work to verify them yourself. Do you need to work and seek to become enlightened? How would you know that if you are not enlightened? And how would you know that Anna is speaking the truth? Do you even know what the truth is? Know that you know nothing and test all insights and teachings to verify them for yourself. This way, you are less likely to become too confused, stuck, or deluded on the path.

So that infinity is more beautiful in comparison, and then in that comparison, the finite also becomes infinitely more beautiful (when compared to the infinite). So both infinitely contrast each other to maximize love/God/Self infinite times more and more and more... Once you experience true God-consciousness you will look at all the mundane things in your existence and be in absolute awe of what an impossible miracle it is that you are experiencing this existence right now. Out of all the infinite possibilities of existence, all the different dimensions and beings and experiences you could have been, you are here right now. Tho mundane, that mundaneness becomes divine in comparison to the infinite glory of God.

It does/doesn't end. It ends/begins in God/Absolute Nothingness/Infinity. If you just kept on going during trips, and totally surrender no matter what happens or for how long. After an eternity, you literally experience all of existence and become so infinite that all dualities merge. Because it is absolutely non-dual, this is impossible to describe in language. All dualities become non-dual, and that becomes dual, and becomes non-dual, and infinite, and finite, and existence, and non-existence, and so on... Once you experience this end/beginning, you simply are what you are in everyday existence. In fact, existence is indescribably beautiful in comparison to non-existence/God (Which is also infinitely beautiful). So, in contrast, they make each other infinitely more infinitely beautiful. Thus you just are aware of what you are and what existence is at all times and appreciate all that is, and just be and love and enjoy yourself.

@Roy Great/whole arts have structures that are closer to the structure of God/existence/infinity. It moves you because it is reminding you of what you are as infinite love (The music you hear is created by you for you as you/God). The more awake you are, the easier it is to sense this wholeness in art. Thus you are able to resonate with them more deeply.

The Path is infinite. But seeking in the dual sense stops when you realize that everything you seek or has sought before you already are. It is not an easy thing to realize in your direct experience, and there are many ways to go about it. For me, I contemplated to the point that I unraveled my own psyche, reaching infinity over and over again until my mental structure broke down and folded onto itself. It was a definitive shift in consciousness, a single moment when I surrendered everything within me and just started to be. Like a wordless whisper, beingness then carries and touches your consciousness like a holy mother, loving its child. Bliss, like a volcano, erupts out from the center of your heart and spread into every atom in your body and beyond. You reach a state of pure beingness, and you are ready for the great awakening. The ending/beginning of all things in existence.

Yes, you begin to sense self-similarities in art. Great arts are self-similar and whole. You are art.

The highest truths have no point in communication. It is pointless because they are truly infinite/non-dual. It's like saying something to yourself who already knows it, who IS it. If you are the only one in existence, then you are all that is/is not. There will be nothing to say since it just loops infinitely without end. The highest truth is wordless, it's just absolute beingness/love. The truer the truth, the more abstract and non-dual it is, the harder it is to communicate since communication is always dual.

The more awakened you are, the more connected you are to God. You will more and more be living through intuition and your true desire (Love). To those who are truly God-realized, it's impossible to live without viewing the world from a perspective that is closer to God. A perspective that is as holistic as possible, combining logic and emotion to form intuition through wisdom. You no longer need to know how everything will play out. Being God/infinite love, you are free to just be and enjoy existence for what it is. For the first time in your existence, you are truly free to make decisions for yourself (as God), no more illusions and self-deception. You know with absolute clarity what you are and why you exist. You are then free to follow love/God in everything you do and wish to experience. And everything you do has the balance/maximization of the love you have for yourself, for others, and everything else in existence.

@flume Yep, words cannot describe even the smallest part of infinite love.

Yeah, you need to define it more clearly. Art is unlimited, and it can have many different purposes and functions that can cover the whole of spiral dynamics/spirituality. Every type of art serves some function in existence/love. I would recommend seek and experience arts that are truly great and whole. Arts that reach the unspeakable, the infinite. It will give you an idea of the potential of art and inspire you to create your own vision for art. Some of these artists are Andrei Tarkovsky (watch all of his films), Alejandro Jodorowsky, Dante Alighieri, Charles Bukowski, Fumito Ueda, Estas Tonne, Debussy, Chopin, Bach, Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, Radiohead, etc. (just to name a few) and various master painter/draftsman I'm sure you are familiar with. With art is important to absorb all forms of art in different mediums, because art is all connected. The most important quality you need to create great art is the ability to sense wholeness, which only develops through experiencing extremely whole arts. Also, if you are an artist, you need to read this collection of works by Christopher Alexander. It will bring you the deepest understanding of art itself and help you create art that is whole.

@RendHeaven Yep, it goes through the whole journey.

@SaltyMeatballs The course is free. It's pretty good if you've never read the work.

@Danioover9000 Yeah, lots of potential practical benefits.

A new way of merging/understanding physics through the lens of computational systems (Cellular Automata).

@impulse9 Yeah, it's still early tho, the project was only published last year, tho it's not accepted by most physicists. His approach to science is fundamentally different than most traditional physicists, I think. Due to the understanding of computational irreducibility, he recognizes the unknowability of certain complexity in the structure of existence. Taking a computational rather than equational approach might be a better perspective than the perspective of pure observation. By building computational models that are similar to reality, you can work your way backward and observe the structure of reality (to some degree) rather than only relying on the content. They are still interesting ideas nonetheless.

Follow your heart.

Awakening is only the beginning lol.

Non-duality is reality/existence. Non-duality just is.

@Flowerfaeiry The most selfless way is one that is a perfect balance between selfishness and selflessness. Since that is the best reflection of your true nature. You, as God, are both yourself and others. To focus on only one of the two is a sign of unawareness of what you are. If you are everyone, including yourself, then there is no difference between selfishness and selflessness. Thus, it is best to remain in beingness and act on intuition (heart), which will always lead to a balanced act between the two without going to either extreme.
