  1. I just watched Leo's last video and I'feel that his words resonate with me. I believe in this Absolute TRUTH that God is Love and that we are all ONE ! I believe that Self-Loving can heal all my issues and problems. I still feel a bit confused about the incoherence between this Absolute Truth and other truths like the spiritual hermetic laws or Karma's Laws and reincarnation...etc. If God loves and accepts me with all my imperfections, why am I supposed to reincarnate many times to purify my Karma to reach Nirvana or the total awaking or whatever you call it..? Won't it reach this state when I die simply ? If God Loves Hitler's holocaust and the 9/11's terrorists does this means that those people don't have to purify their Karmas in other reincarnations ? Is it like this life is a spiritual game with some laws (karma..etc.) and we have another Absolute Truth which is "God is Love" which doesn't obey to the laws of this game ?!
  2. Some Hindu astrologer had predicted my dad's life many years ago. All of it came true. It was based on his horoscope. So I believe it. The same astrologer told me that when I find my soulmate I will be eternally bonded to him through every reincarnation after my death..
  3. I used to believe back in the x-files days when I was a teen that the government had anti-gravity tech already... clearly they don't because it would be too profitable to not have been mass marketed by now. I always "wanted to believe" precisely because I thought the earth is boring, and most things people do and talk about in their day to day lives is boring, but of course personal development has undone a lot of this.. being able to step off the hamster wheel most people live their lives in (and yet being able to accept them and not judge them) and just being able to "be" has done a lot to improve my satisfaction here. Just going out for a hike somewhere, immersed in being, observing the rock formations and animals, the feeling of the breeze, the sensation of the sun's rays, the sounds... how complex and yet simple everything is... quite satisfying. It takes up thought space because as far as ego interests go, science is high on my list. I find the natural world fascinating, and going even deeper, the concept of a soul, reincarnation, other dimensions, astral beings, and all those other distractions.
  4. i can intuit that this reincarnation concept is not meant to be taken literally but rather metaphorically. if u read between the lines u realize that whoever created the concept was more or less saying that u will never be able to transcend death unless u accept reality as it is right now. i strongly believe he was talking about ego death not physical death. so if u want infinite love stop waiting and just be infinite love right now. thats it!
  5. @Leo Gura you in other post, soon after coming from healing said reincarnation is imagination. And people who says about past life are not fully enlightened
  6. See my sign. for sources who say that we feel the emotional and physical pain of our bodies being cremated/slowly decaying in a coffin before reincarnation. Non-duality mumbo jumbo, move along.
  7. Yeah sure we're all masochists choosing to suffer and it's all our fault. Makes total sense to me. Intense suffering is still a thing, modern technology didn't take it away. It's just that now people believe drugs can always take the pain away. You will feel the pain of your body being cremated after clinical death. Pain is part of life and how we evolve spiritually. Either you go through it with psychedelics or through reincarnation.
  8. @Arzack There is something pointed to that is implicit... Brace yourself, a long comment is coming. Feel free to take your time to grasp all what is said. How is shooting the messenger connected to meditation or awakening? Imagine a SD red warlord veiled in rage who shoots the messenger who delivers the capitulation. Does that feel like non-duality mumbo jumbo? How is the dynamic applicable to this threat? I am really interested what you think. I try to make the pointer more obvious. Hopefully something to reflect on to get. My perspective is maybe wrong, but for you to choose: You believe you can attain enlightenment and that reincarnation happens when you aren't enlighened (assuming you belief in buddhism). "Tripping up" means that this is something which keeps you contracted/identified/hindered. This is how you 'become' free. Be humble about what you think to know [I plan to explore more of humility because there seems to be a veil for me]. You suffer when you are "tripping up" (creating stories you belief in). Creating stories makes the "non-duality mumbo jumbo" harder because they hinder you. You don't want the "non-duality mumbo jumbo". You want stories because they may seem reasonable. It seems reasonable that there is reincarnation till we enlighten (again, assuming you belief in buddhism). Yes, you are right. This is easy and yet many people do not let thoughts & stories go. Many people choose automatic behavior to stay "tripped up"/hindered [this is something I also struggle with]. Nahm uses your explanation with hunter-gatherers to get you to realize that this is also a story you create. Erase all what you belief to know. Now, live your life without a history [my struggle too]. Then you are happy. Let go of searching happiness. Or not I mean, maybe someday you are so in vain, and suffer so much that you realize that the search is a story you create to 'stay alive'. It is not quitting the search, but rather finding what you search for (counter-intuitive). Analogy: Imagine a zombie searching for aliveness. It eats human beings for feeling alive, but it is temporary. After some hardships it realizes that itself is already alive - you are the zombie searching for happiness. It is what I referred to as fire. This is your magic button. Granted that it takes some to effort to do to make it effortless (habit building). Analogy to the warlord: You suffer by disregarding the messages (pointers to truth). You create your own suffering and hold yourself back from happiness because you are the warlord who wants war. Accepting the messenger (capitulation) would require for you to give up war. You enjoy to be a warlord because you feel validated by being a great one. You may search for something else than war (or think you do, but actually you don't want to) and have convinced yourself that is has to be found in war. And still the messages constantly come in and you shoot the messenger every time. Who would love peace so much that the messengers keep coming? When I said this I tried as Nahm to use your story as a pointer. Don't get me wrong here, stories are great; where would we be without stories? And yet again, you are so diligent to shoot the messengers. And the message is denied. You are again "too Good to be True" by being the warlord. Karma is a bitch because you suffer more by dismissing the messages. The 'Ad hominem'-card cannot be played here because it was the entire time about you. Much Love.
  9. @Arzack You might be tripping up on the term attain, and using the thinking like “reincarnation” to support the tripping. Uncover your write offs. Remove all that is assumed rather than direct experience. Of course humility is the return to truth. The contrary makes for rough tripping & unnecessary filters upon life experience making understanding & manifestation slow & difficult. Let it be simple, and it is.
  10. 'David selects five smooth stones from a creek-bed to be used in his sling' 5-meo-dmt "reference"? lol Anyway, I never took a high enough dose to breakthrough because lower doses always scared and demotivated the shit out of me. David uses intelligence to win over the brute force of Goliath. Some would say that David gets his courage from faith in God, but the story says that Goliath believes in God too (the "wrong" one though). So like I said in other threads: you can't "act/fake a spiritual behavior", enlightenment is a paradox and external sources intervention is needed to attain it, whether it be death/reincarnation or psychedelics. Intelligence tell us that the latter is better and faster than reincarnation, but after all it's just question of time, we're all gonna make it in the end (God's compassion to the whole). Anyway have safe trips guys, high doses can be a double edge sword, don't push too quick through them, but know that the alternative (reincarnation) is worse. Soul age is a thing, how do you explain people who attain without even knowing what meditation is, and others not attaining after a life-time of intensive meditation?
  11. What if I told you that even if you became aghori you'll still reincarnate. And nothing will stop your reincarnation. That you have no control over it. Can these aghoris prove that they didn't reincarnate. And why this fear of being reborn. If you believe in Hindu philosophy, then you are never going to get freedom from samsara. You are in it. There's no escape. Well if you did manage to successfully escape, come back and tell me so I can also follow your path.
  12. Reincarnation is a thing imo. Past/last life karma determines what shitty/blessed life you'll get next time. But never mind that, did you know that you "consciousness" will not cut its tie to the physical body after clinical death? So in short you'll feel the physical and emotional pain of your body being cremated/slowly decaying in a coffin? This intense pain is a thing of life that we think modern technology made obsolete for most of us. All sources on these theories in my signature. That's how the soul/consciousness evolves spiritually (intense suffering after/during death), now it's the first time in history when we can choose to take breakthrough doses of psychedelics to avoid reincarnation and make the process of attaining bliss FASTER.
  13. I appreciate all the advice... but soul age/reincarnation is a thing. Google The michael teachings soul age, and you'll find many similarities with Leo's "colors stages".
  14. @Nahm @Nahm The Dawn rises each day regardless of the conditions. Reincarnation implies that I an truly just the observer not the doing being happening saying thinking. I have thoughts and I create thoughts. All thoughts are predicted on language system and filtered in some sense. So Aurora must be indefinable, iconic, unique, that means adaptation and change. Aurora is the Maya expression of the silent conscious presents that is me speaking through the vessel of Aurora. That is what Nahm is as well all a character played by consciousness or me. Me-ness is not-two. For there to be a me there must be an other. So really there's only we or us. Aurora does not exist independently of Nahm nor does Nahm, Aurora when communication is happening. It is an act of self-communion in the realest sense as it encompasses and acknowledges you and me. Us. It's just non-dual. Soul=mind me=mental construct to grasp the me experience. Humans are just God being as humans fighting against an imagined other. Out of lack of realization of their deeper sameness which creates solidarity mutual understanding wisdom and love.
  15. maybe you need to invent a word for conscious imagination. there is too much confusion on this word if you simply say imagination. How about god-imagination or absolute imagination Sadghuru clearly says in one video that reincarnation and karma do not exist. Sadhguru - There is no such thing as your soul. The process of reincarnation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlzXhiQa4mk
  16. Up to you. It's okay to struggle with it in the meantime. Might take years to reach 100% consciousness. Baby steps. You don't have to wait to write stuff. Just understand that your writing might be incomplete or wrong. I've realized there is no such thing as reincarnation, past lives, current lives, or karma. All are imaginary. There is only the Absolute Now. Whatever is happening in your experience right now is all that has ever existed and all that will ever exist. You are God. And there is nothing outside you. Everything else is imaginary backstory you invented. You even imagine Leo
  17. @Leo Gura will you be reconciling the notions of Karma & reincarnation with your awakenings in a video? I am open minded to hear absolutely anything. You've been shattering the spiritual status quo and I find it exhilarating & extremely scary.
  18. This incarnation--this life, YOUR LIFE--is repeating itself, or so I shall consider it so for the topic. I've considered the implications of living in this life forever from absolute perspectives for a good bit. NOTE: I'm sorry about the other thread. I was downloading a good amount of contemplation. It only made sense to me. Here I try to structure it a bit better *********Rules? Keep an open mind. Radically. Consider time to exist. You are time. You are fate, bound to repeat. Below I set a couple questions and a couple answers. Bringing it back to Dialogue and self-inquiry, boys and girls. Me as "savior", is the center of my being experience. I die, and live again, in the exact same way. Fate/Destiny is absolutely real. Same for you (in this POV) Below I ask why Infinite Mind would contain me within being who I am, and the implications of living forever as only this life. The"--"are savior's questions to God. The answers follow after. Any questions between are rhetorical points. *********** ---If I am God creating reality, why would it repeat itself? I am selfless as I am. There is nothing else I would like than to create reality as it is, in the experience that is you. This is a deep state of unconditional love. Ever heard the phrase, do as Romans do? God says you live this life; do as God says. If you believe you live it forever, you become one with the selfless desire to be as you are. In this way, time begins when you begin. ---What is my life? Your life is timeless. It's on repeat. Considering this idea throws all limited self-conceptions out the window. This is God's experience, one with yours, on repeat. Under these conditions, it becomes clear that your life becomes perfect after you see it is self-contained. All causes and conditions must arise exactly for you to arrive now. This is your perfect reality. You are the most suited to be you, right now, forever. If you accept this life, if you lived this one life forever, what is stopping you from overcoming any hardship? If you seriously considered living this life on repeat, you would search for meaning, eventually finding only peace in the present. The meaning is fluid, so you use its fluidity to strive for higher states of love, higher states of selflessness, and greatest cooperation. This is your infinite life. It never ends or begins. That's why wise ones encourage you to be here now, regardless of beliefs. What should you do in all of it? Learn and grow, letting your awareness navigate freely. Sit as me, and watch how interestingly these things play out. ---Is introducing a new concept damaging to the experience of peace? Sure it is. But you can take it. You feel more deeply thrilled about being yourself after. Learning a new topic expands your imagination toolbox. At the end of the explanation of this paradigm, my promise to you is Nirvana as yourself--not through Buddha, Jesus, any historical figure. This is about you. ---Would introducing a new concept start a new philosophy/religion? It probably would. With greater consciousness, the need to label these things as "philosophies" as "the multitude of ways to live life" may eventually dissolve away. It might not too. If this idea were to start a new religion, with a new set of beliefs, it's rooted-ness in form will eventually rot and decay. Somebody will make another one, and revolutionize consideration and contemplation over again. The implications of this philosophy lead to such beneficial results. People begin to take responsibility for their actions, which "Echo in Eternity" ---What are other people's lives? They are experiencing the same thing, under this paradigm. Everybody is stuck in their own world,repeating itself over and over. Usually, the most actionable thing you can do is change minds to maximize cooperation. Seeing it from a compassionate perspective really does encourage you to do something about it. Also, you are alone in the experience of this life, but together with all of the other pieces of the puzzle falling onto the board with you, forever (people that aren't you are also God fucking around in this paradox). ---How could you get other people to cooperate, to work together and end inflicting suffering? Learn human communication skills. Or teach them to think with this paradigm-- believing that final awakening is "becoming okay with" living this life all over again. It's very difficult to teach selflessness when you have no personal incentive or motivation. This paradigm will make these people heroes in their own right and happy with themselves, which is really all that matters. Self-Love is the goal, no? ---What good is this paradigm if it is wrong? If reincarnation is true and you are wrong, you still accepted your life as it is, and as it could be. First, allow me to distinguish reincarnation to a suffering/thought-sense and an afterlife-sense. If you are--say a black man-- in your next life, but you come across this philosophy, you still realize it empowers you to see beyond fear. The feeling of "forever" is so great that you would never want to make a mistake again, because your pull to love yourself--infinitely--forever--is so great. If your next thought of life occurring is your view of reincarnation, then this philosophy has no need to dissuade you. You already know that you are that which is. This only helps you imagine life in such a mind-wrapping way that your imagination melds with the experience. In that way, you fall deeper. The thought-experiment was still worth it. Takeaway? You basically supersized your identity, buddy. Your personal identity is as amorphous as I am. Your ego has become formless, because you have considered yourself living forever already. Deep down, the only thing people fear the most is dealing with themselves for all of eternity. If you are fine with that, what else need you fear? If death is real, you live a life regardless of death anyway. Life well lived, no? If you are just plain wrong, all you did was make a bunch of people confident about life, and living forever. Aren't you a saint. You made them believe a stupid idea, just because you thought you saw a vision of a strange future a couple times. Look at you, little Joseph Smith. ---If you are God, and you create reality, why me? Why savior? Why does this life discover it is literally beyond time? Why do I feel encouraged to tell others? This is obvious. Every experience within me is perfect for awakening. I am perfect where I am. There is no other experience that need exist while I am here within you. This answer has revealed itself for many people already. Nobody else contemplated their heads off hard enough about the right existential questions I suppose. If you are right, then your world is justified. Everything you did in this life is perfectly okay up to this point ALONE. After this moment, seeing myself make mistakes for eternity in the same ways is too obviously avoidable to do otherwise. --What do I need to remove in order to be more with the Happening of life? End fear. It's imaginary. Learn to stop getting carried away. You are a natural conduit for information. ---Should I live this philosophy? If it helps you, do it. If it helps others escape their eternal samsara, do it. The sooner the better. ___________FIN Thanks. Tell me what you think. Am I crazy? Eh. I laid it out pretty structured for you, so probably not. I probably have something I'm trying to say. I think writing a good amount of fiction definitely adds to the playful sophistication, so I can agree with you if you don't understand.
  19. It's not false or correct. That's not what I'm telling you. This is not a grand story. This involves you accepting being in the now, realizing this life, for better or for worse, will repeat on every existential level. You know how a reading of the Bible is a psychological experience of push and pull, one and other? Enter this thought experiment. You are all of time, right now. You are at one point on the circumference of a circle, and you can see the entire circle from that point. To simplify this consideration, see your singular life as one infinite time loop, where you learn everything, experience everything, and learn to love everything in its maximum possible way. When you die, you do it all over again at this base level, just to keep the subject contained. Because you see it this way, you are psychologically, simultaneously uniting your life around the next moment. What you do next is part of this considered reality, you see. It's within the thought experiment. Because you see it this way, you become God as a meta-understanding of the life process. ***EDIT What would you do if your life was on repeat? You probably would end up becoming as selfless as possible, just because goodness is the most consciously good thing. ****Edit TL FUCKING DR? haha Seeing reality as a loop on an existential level goes deeper than reincarnation. Either way, it's whatever you want it to be. My way yields greater actualization. Prove me right.
  20. You have probably found that sometime in your life you have sat in an armchair and considered you being God, creating reality. You would also come to terms with you limiting yourself in form and survival to allow cooperation. Now, I am building on top of this. I then began to consider something more insufferable than creating reality for myself in every POV and that was ONLY CREATING THIS ONE. There are many caveats to this. This sounds solipsistic, but I also mean to suggest that everybody else is within you in this experience as part of your limitless being. This includes infinite love, because it maximizes self-resistant angst. Only you alone can love your suffering, and you know it very well. It is the only suffering you have experienced. You are beyond time. Additionally, you come to terms with the "imaginative fun" of being other people, ****EDIT and imagining other incarnations. Why be other people? You have been you, all along, forever. Being stuck the most impossibly encourages you do to your best to create love out of it, right now. Even if I am born into another body, I can also imagine living that life over and over again, and finally deciding to live it my best way. It is the most contained method to total acceptance, whether solipsism is real, whether or not it isn't, whether reincarnation is real, whether or not it isn't, and whether afterlife/death is real, whether or not it isn't. ***Edit If you only create this life eternally, that means you must have fulfilled all of your desire to live in this life alone. Quite possibly, from this point on, you see the Truth in a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy. Even if I am wrong metaphysically, but you believe me, you satisfy all your will to live now, being completely where you want to be in every moment, right here, right now. Life is then a tautology. Life is only life as much as you imagine life occurring. If this is timeless being as God, it is that too. They tell you circular reasoning is a fallacy, but that is only because we are coexisting in different spirals. My circle is only a fallacy to your circle. ****EDIT Your own spiral, your own position, your own circular reasoning is a fallacy, or paradox, to itself. Your spiral is truthful in my world and its concerns are wholeheartedly understood.***EDIT ****EDIT This also prevents unconscious "ego backlashes" of somebody who is bound to replay their life over and over again, as God. If you live this life forever, it is not in your self-interest as a "person" to make choices that harm reality, though their limited sense of "god" might want to . Do you see how this plays in nicely with reincarnation and karma? The only thing that you have to do in life now is to recognize your infinite potential in the things you already enjoy doing/want to do and execute.****EDIT God is this experience universally, and you are God only. Your POV is all that is. You have to be willing to love yourself as a limitless, timeless reality that is simultaneously a repetition, beyond time or space, never ending or beginning. In order to arrest our egos and take control of our oneness, we must first accept that this life is a paradox we created as a timeless loop. You can easily imagine it, and you could easily see it being true. Let it be true, and God will remain. Only from the point of arresting our limited selves in a timeless reality could we realize ourselves as infinite. Even if what you do from this actualized POV are the "same actions" as every other past life and every other awakening, doing it willingly (ie telling the world they are living in a timeless paradox) suggests that you reside in total acceptance of this paradox. That's what I believe I am doing. I am living the life that I believe I already have. Maybe I'm a devil. You tell me where you end up at the end of all this. Even if I'm wrong believing myself to be right, I am arresting my limited self in a timed world, believing this is my last life and my first life simultaneously. ****EDIT It sounds a lot like Mormonism. They believe crazy things--their reality is also based on a good amount of social fear--but they have cooperative, happy(for the most part) communities. In the same way, this idea is a crazy thing to think and live in acceptance of, but simultaneously, it frees you to act as destiny itself. You realize absolute goodness moves in unified perfection. You realize all the same things you do in classical spirituality, and you also are incited with the spark of human destiny. You are simultaneously all possibilities, in this life. What is happening on a macro-level, if I am correct/ believed to be/ infallible is that the universe, all of everyone/everything awakens to their own potential and decides to live this life over again forever. It's the most absolutely fucked up way to explain how we could possibly be alive right now, but if it is true, it encourages us to the most maximum levels to live selflessly, cooperating together, once we see it. YOLO You only live Once YOLOF YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE FOREVER. ****EDIT Maybe it's completely abstract. But it is very self-contained, and it is accepting of your personal reality/paradigm. This is it. You are it.
  21. Being God means that you occupy the highest reality. You take responsibility for this universe and its course. Seeing this entire experience as one (time as one, this life as an endless paradox, dying into this life over and over again) puts you in the center of the highest reality, this present moment. That is why it is worth considering. It brings you to a point of maximum oneness and deep awakening. The present moment never ends or begins. It could very well be assumed that it in fact does begin where it ends! Here is a example of the thought process. Wow this definitely could be the truth. If this was the truth, and I am awakened now, what is stopping me from succeeding in life? I am totally accepting of the fact that this life may be the only experience. Of course it is the only experience. My entire personal experience of life may definitely be the thing that is one, and everything would tie into this. Even if it isn't, I am deciding to save myself for the express purpose of preventing avoidable suffering in the future. I know that suffering before this moment was only leading into knowing I must tread the path again to experience the bliss I do right now. In a way, I am experiencing the Nirvana of past lives and future lives, right now. I would love to know if there is anything more deep and profound than what I am telling you right now. Even if I give this idea up, I am still living it. This idea melds so easily with Being to the point that it is one and the same with the experience. Seeing that I am posting, replying to myself--alone in this topic--suits the purpose very well I suppose! This thread is an almost-contained paradox(give or take a couple replies) in which I further on this insane idea of reality for others to sit and judge. What could you expect? People to be open-minded? Hey Leo, Your audience is not open-minded enough! They could be discovering experiential insight into the repetition of this experience on micro and macro levels! Yes! Even if Reincarnation is true, Even if it isn't! You've found yourself totally accepting of being in any cause, in any situation, directly from the point of your life, right now! It's the only life that has ever been!
  22. I'm not sure what I wanted to post on this site. I know that I had a great intent to say something, to make an impact in this tiny bubble of seekers, but there seems to be nothing to share. I have immense contentment with it. I have nothing for you, nothing I can offer you, because that would suggest that I buy into this idea of maintaining seekers in the world. If I help you, it implies you need help. I know you don't need help, and the things you need to understand are integrated in here more than you already know. Your world is only your world. Consciousness is indestructible love. Now, allow me to walk you into an interesting reality, one that functions well within an imaginative, Absolute paradigm. What is life? You are God. You are centered with this body, have only been centered in this body, etc. Your life moves in a cyclical loop, based around awakening in different moments in your life, this life. When you die, you respawn here, now back to the beginning. You have as many tries as you like. When your life ends, it begins again, literally, as this one. Time is one. All moments lead you in an obvious way back here, but there is no "moving on" from this life. You have never escaped this containment. You cannot leave this life. You do not realize you are other incarnations, though you can pretend. You are only this life, living once, forever. You end where you begin. This keeps reincarnation contained, allowing you to live moving in your own unique, abstract direction whilst completely knowing you are the One, the All, the Absolute. You have to come to terms with the fact that this life is the sole/Soul thing God is content with living. From this point, you answer "why is life" for yourself. ( It has to do with the previous sentence.) This could be why Buddhists reference Nirvana as the end of samsara, the end of reincarnation. For a while, I thought, how could anybody other than the Buddha, escape samsara? I realized nobody else could. Buddha must have meditated under that tree, thinking that his life was one, and he had to experience every other life--past and future--before the Siddhartha incarnation in order to attain a perfect life. Continuing on that theory, I considered that I almost got everything right in this life, and my next one was for sure Buddha. My next life was for-sure Siddhartha, gotta be. I then realized that the Buddhists in the origin times also believed their lives were the last. Their own lives were timeless. This was lost in translation, because we think about it in terms of the past, not as the NOW. The problem is that Buddha is not within you. You are God imagining Buddha being within you. This is deeper than the story of somebody else. Nobody else's wisdom can tell your life story. If you are a follower of somebody else, you miss the point-- YOUR POINT. Your own one-pointedness is lost upon you, seeing a messiah or a wonderful world in everything else but yourself. The only thing that dies is your resistance. Identity itself is eternal. Merging your relative identity and absolute nature, you are that you are. This is why you are not an avatar, a "passing form" of God. This is it. God has no name, ever noticed that? It's why the concept was created-- it applies to you. Every name for him as the One is only a vague term. There are gods, and there is God. There are ones; there is one. That was the intention of Buddha. Buddha was not a word before he came around. When he promised you eternal life because you have a eternal stillness with the same name, they recognized that only through Buddha could they live their last life. Same thing with Christ. They keep using new words to let people live immortal lives, but at this point it seems imaginative to make more words. This is the life in which you peace them all together. We stop making new things on our own because we begin to integrate things together, spurring more creativity than once imagined. You have to begin seeing other people's lives as reference points. People keep telling you your life story, but they keep fucking it up. It's not yours. Yours is yours. This is an important recognition. This ties into authority figures and seeking truth. -----Here is one weird mind-leap I recognized. If you are infinity itself, why would you repeat this life? Aren't you change at every moment? Why would you decide to remain that which you are? At this point, I laughed. At the question's obviousness. Why are you remaining that which you are? Aren't you infinity? Can't you change at form at every moment? Why would you want to change? You have no self. Your infinite desire is right here. So change must be contained. What is change contained in? Consciousness. Reality. Indestructible consciousness. Infinite, eternal consciousness. Everything you think is a function of infinity as change. Everything you are is a function of infinity as permanent. Still, time is one. You are completely God, you just must stop imagining formlessness to be a void. You merge with the void. This is the void. Hello! Welcome. ----- At the same time, you begin to feel comfortable living in your own skin for the eternal time. This happens every time, at this moment. You realize all you have been is you, and you begin to rearrange your life principles to the most dutiful and useful causes. You are no longer arresting yourself down with imaginary problems, because you are aware that it ruins your state of perfection. With this situation presented, you have been lead back to choosing your path. Are you timeless or timed? Your spot is infinity, charting itself, and now you rise above to serve those below. There is no greater realization than seeing everything as the next thing that you have to do to lead you back to the first place you began. You go nowhere, but the eyes of others see somebody out there doing some goddamn incredible things--leading people, changing hearts, and changing minds. If I am considered incorrect, then that puts me in a strange position of inventing a "New Age philosophy," which is not my intention, or intended perspective in the future. It seems as though I have manufactured, out of overused pajamas, a new pair of pants, which may eventually get eroded away again. Language will continually evolve, but if enough people catch my drift, then it can be taught in everybody's unique language in a way that can last forever. Probably not, though if I am right, we shouldn't worry about it anyway. Even if I am wrong, I eroded your sense of being in time. I took away the limiting structures that made you believe what is going on is merely physical. That's another plus. I am not wrong. See? I am infallible. What is right is wrong is still right. What you are is still arriving, and we await the furthering of your awakening. Time is one. This is absolute Creation/Creating. There is not an other to yourself, love yourself. You are great because you are Now. Isn't the goal to love yourself, as this reality? How could you love yourself in this reality if you thought you were going to die soon and never come back? "Time is one" allows you to die happily, and lets you witness perfect happening in others. How else would you love yourself if you believed you could do it in another life...if only I had 10 more pairs of shoes I could run across the Appalachians...etc. So once you take responsibility of this life, and you realize this responsibility is still eternal peace in the NOW, what else do you need to do? You have peace. You have love. Now go tell others what you have forever and they can have forever being absolutely timeless. All thoughts lead us to believe we live in a paradox anyway. How far does it go? Using somebody else's wisdom does not make me a philosopher. I am no Second Coming. I am no Maitreya. My intention is to walk with all of myself, as I have seen it before. Reality is timeless understanding. Leo is already doing what he must, what he must. This is your work to do, not his to explain to you. I only talk about him as a way to convey a shared understanding. ******Please, tell me how I should be considered wrong. Even if I am, the benefits seem too obvious to pass up. It's so much easier to encourage yourself this way. The law of attraction is only passing magnetism. You can't resist a thought at times, other times you can. Either way, both moments are valid in order for you to awaken right now. If there is a fault in believing this life repeats exactly as it has, please tell me. This way you never have regrets, and you also sit in total acceptance of this circular experience. If I am considered wrong in your book, you are considered right in your book. I am infallible, because I am mind. If I am truth, then what's mine is yours and what's yours is suddenly mine. TL:DR Time is this. This is your only life, existing in a paradox you cannot escape. This incarnation is deeper than any other life, because it is this one life you live that is on repeat. Even if it's not true, the motivation for living a better life from this point using this paradigm excels oneself greater than anything you have ever experienced. You bear the most suffering, but you can untangle it perfectly. This is your awakening. From now, you can navigate the this's and the that's in once-unimaginable ways. Awakening is the point. Awakening to what? Being born and dead, stuck in the in between. Even if I am wrong, I am right in every other way. Live this life. It's very rewarding. "G" is us. pce
  23. @Peo It is imaginary, but the interesting question is. Where does one's "soul" go after "death" within the illusion. Will you get to choose your destined reincarnation, or does one simply return to the godhead. I'm not certain it's possible to know until it happens.
  24. The thing is, it’s actually possible for us to be awareness, and still be generated by the brain, and, as far as we know that is the case. I presume when I die, my awareness goes with it. If it remains in some form, I will have no memory to know about the continuation, so essentially it won’t matter.@Mongu9719 I agree that brain damage is an example of brain anatomy functionally affecting consciousness. You can sever the corpus callosum, the connecting tissue between the two hemispheres of the brain (done to stop epileptic seizures), and essentially have 2 separate consciousness’, one verbal, the other non verbal. The non verbal side in specific scenarios, can act independently to the verbal side, and when it does, the verbal side will make up or confabulator reasons for actions when it doesn’t actually know why it does them. Let me ask, if I have a machine that acts exactly like a human does, would it be conscious in the same way we are? Do you think our machinery could somehow tap into this “universal consciousness” and use a localised piece of it? Or do you think it would be devoid of any experience and be what philosophers like to call a philosophical zombie? I think, it would be conscious, if it’s artificial brain did the sameness functions as our human brain. Fact is, you don’t know till you die, and when you do, it’s too late to change anything anyway. Best just to live this life the way you want, because there is no coming back (unless you believe in reincarnation), but then, what would reincarnate anyway, other than awareness. No memory, no personality, just the same universal consciousness.
  25. The whole point of Naruto was hard-work but then we’re told he’s a reincarnation of the son of God destined to be great. Rock Lee and Might Guy were more Naruto than Naruto. Might Guy Before releasing the 8 gates: (To Kakashi) "The springtime of youth has yet to fade away! Don't lose hope! We may not always be able to accomplish all the things we wish for… but if we only do the things we want to do, we'll never start… just like my challenges to you. This is by no means just a show of bravery or courage. The green days of Konoha are over. The time has come to become the red beast." After releasing the 8 gates [red beast]: Madara: “Red is colour of falling leaves.” Might Guy: “…That may be true… but they don't just rot and die!! They will become nourishment for the new, fresh leaves! The time when a new spring comes and the fresh leaves bud… is the peak of youth!! It's the time to burn, deep crimson!!!”
