The Princess Diaries

[Princess Arabia]

People are sticking to their human identity and defending it while trying to get enlightened at the same time. Can't you all see this madness. Am I the mad one. Maybe.

[Princess Arabia]

Spiritual gain VS material gain is no different. PERIOD. The me will tell itself anything to feel important and different from the rest of me's. The only difference is in the content. Buying a blue shirt VS an orange one. Does the color orange make you feel better than blue and do you look better in orange so you'll feel better than when wearing the blue one. Everyone is after a feeling and that's what both spirituality and materialism is used for. Nothing else. 

The energy that arises that seems to feel a sense of separateness is the very same energy that feels the need for wholeness and completion. Both seek, both feel unfulfilled, both are un-eased, dis-eased. Spirituality is the crutch and materialism is the crutch. Neither is really happening and both are illusions. The seeker doesn't exist. 

[Princess Arabia]

Just because one feels like they are, doesn't mean they are. I AM feels like an I AM, that's not proof of existence. A body seems to be here. Doesn't mean I AM.

[Princess Arabia]

How are you sure people are low-conscious and not just avoiding annihilation. Some would rather stay there than to face their own absence. Don't be so sure of your own high-consciousness persona. It could also be a front of some kind.

I cannot take life very seriously. I just can't. Seriousness just says you're scared to me. Yeah, fear of some sort will always be there but to take life seriously on a whole, doesn't compute. Especially since life itself doesn't take itself that seriously. Infact, it plays too much.

[Princess Arabia]

People don't even know who they are but they love to talk about conscious this and conscious that. First go figure out if you yourself are conscious before labelling and categorizing people into the low conscious and high conscious domain. If i ask you who you are, you'd probably say consciousness. I guess there are categories of consciousness for people to be at even though you'll say consciousness is everything. States of consciousness too. 

It cracks me up to see the same thing in spiritualists as I see in the materialists. Categorizing who is better than who. 

[Princess Arabia]

We look up to some and look down on others. We look at drug addicts in street alleys shooting up in a different yes, but less than flattering light like say Osho or Moojii. We speak of some with respect and awe while bastardizing others. The drugged out individual on the street corner isn't someone to look up to Sadhguru is or Allan Watts, or Oprah or Rolling Stone. Then we wonder why there's a drug epidemic in the first place. 

[Princess Arabia]

Is a rainbow real. Is it really there. Yes and no. Are those eye floaters really there or are they seeming to appear. Is that reflection really there. When the moon reflects in the river, is the moon actually in the river. Most will agree that the moon isn't in the river; but will most agree that the reflection is real or is it unreal. Some will say both. The reflection seems real but that's all it is - a reflection. You'd say it's a reflection of something real. A rainbow cannot be grasped or held unto and is empty and void of any depth and substance. Most would agree with that. A moon's reflection cannot be grasped either and the moon cannot be taken out the water the same way your body cannot be taken out the mirror. Would you say your body's reflection is real or is it unreal. I say the reflection is real, any reflection is real as long as we're referring to reflection. The reflection is there. Is it an appearance, yes. The moon appears to be in the water and is only a reflection. 

You see, these terms aren't as cut and dry when distinguishing between the terms real and unreal. Most will say water is water but not most will say something that's a reflection is real or that an appearance is real. It all depends, and depends on how one looks at it. It's all a matter of perspective; and because of that, how can anything really be real. Things might appear to be real, but what makes something real or unreal. That too will be a matter of perspective, opinion and belief. So, don't be so quick to say what's real or unreal is truth or untruth or not there or there or whatever adjective you want to use, it's not that dry cut when it comes to language, communication and perception. I say nothing is really real and everything is. But in the Absolute sense nothing is, not even relativity.

We will all never agree on everything. This is life in a nutshell. Nothing being everything. All different. Never exactly duplicated. Even twins aren't exactly the same. All fresh and new. Save your frustrations. Well, that's life being frustration too. This forum is a great replica of life's expressions. Everything about it. 

We tend to think we need extravagant things to appear; or we need to feel an extraordinary feeling to feel, see, experience reality as it is or to see it for what it is. The real reality isn't lurking behind some psychedelic experience or some mystical experience or some flashy lights and elephants in walls. It is timelessly what is appearing. The coffee cup, the pencil, the grass, the birds chirping, the hurricane, the sunshine, that man cursing, all of it. It's all magical. We can't see it because it's known. There's a kind of normalcy with things known. That's why we crave fresh and new. 

How can we all agree on everything when it's all fresh and new. All ideas are fresh and new. If I have an idea of baking a cake yesterday and an idea of baking a cake today and an idea of baking a cake tomorrow, all those ideas on those respective days would be fresh and new ideas even if they were of the same essence. If I read a book yesterday and reread the same book today, I wouldn't be reading the exact same book. This computer is not the same computer it was 5mins ago, a sec ago. How can anything be the same it only appears that way as in the same idea or even day. There is no today. There is only timelessness. So, no matter what appears to happen, nothing can ever duplicate itself so no one can ever get this exactly. THIS CAN NEVER BE DUPLICATED, and the sane goes for life. It can never be GOTTEN or GRASPED. It cannot be wrapped up nicely in a gift wrap and be presented as a case study to KNOW what Reality is. Knowing is one sec too far. The fact that one knows has turned reality into a dead weight. It cannot be truly known. This is how this is neither alive or dead. It just is.

[Princess Arabia]

It is just as silly to expect the silly to not be silly. How else can silly be. Nothing becomes something else. Everything just is. Becoming is an illusion.

How is death an illusion. 

A body appears to an observer as alive and a body appears to an observer dead. One doesn't die, there's no one to die. You, yeah you, reading this there is no you. There is not a person inside that body that ages and dies. Other dead bodies appear so you think you will die some day. No, you are already not here. No one is. 

 

[Princess Arabia]

Death is the giveaway that one doesn't exist. Jesus Christ i'm not really here. I think I am. I most definitely am not. OMG, how didn't I see this before like truly see it. I'm not referring to no self and all that jazz. Like I'm not actually here. The body seems to be but I'm not in it. There is just no I to be in a body. Like truly. I don't feel it as I speak but it might come back. Death is nothing to fear, if anything life is. Life is the illusion. Life is the pretense. It tricks. It deceives. There's no life, there's no death. There's simply what is.

Many things appear, so I think similar things will occur again someday, like a musical rhythm. It is like old folks carving constellations on stones to mark certain moments they witnessed and cared for, which will happen once more after celestial movements, telling us the story once again. I hope you do not mind my occasional comments.

[Princess Arabia]

Oh my oh no. This is some weird shit. Everything seems to be the same, except fora sense of not being here. Jesus, there's no me here. There's no you there, I should have left this shit alone. Good thing is there is no continuity and it's not linear. So it's all a timeline, a story that's not happening. I'll come back. So it will seem.

No I don't mind, I welcome comments. Feel free anytime. On the thing of death its just I realize now what it is. How I will never experience it and how the illusion happens. It doesn't; just as my being/presence isn't happening.

I'm taking this shit so calmly. Just sitting here typing away as I normally do. Nothing dramatic is happening, the lawn mower by the neighbor going off, the birds chirping as usual the sun shining and cars going by. Life goes on as usual, except it's a fucking dream. I'm probably lucid in the dream. Idk. I'm not freaking out I'm not on anything i'm just sitting here having an understanding. It's weird, I'm understanding that ilm not really here. I'm not experiencing not being here because it feels like it still. Ilm not shifting either. I'm simply, and it's not an intellectual understanding, I'm understanding that I'm not here. I'm understanding that I do not exist as a person in this body. I'm understanding that death with not come because there's just simply no one to die here. There will just be no more sense of a person in this body. Death is death of a sense. It's an understanding but it doesn't seem conceptual or intellectual. It just seems like a knowing understanding. 

[Princess Arabia]

Someone will say you don't actually believe that or you will go jump in front of a car. Go prove you don't exist. Total misunderstanding. Understanding seems to be more than I thought it was. Understanding seems to be more fundamental than previously understood. I'm not sure. Anyway, there's no one to make the decision to go jump in front of a car to prove their existence. There's either jumping in front of a car happening or not. That sense of self didn't come back yet I'm waiting for it. Jesus, wtf. Somehow I can see now how I don't die. No one will be at a funeral for this body. That's a story being projected unto others.

[Princess Arabia]

it's hard convincing no one there's no one. There not really a convincing but just a talking about because there's no one to convince. The no one will turn around and turn you into a someone that needs to act as a no one or else you're lying. It's pointless, like literally. There's no one on the other end doing that either but it's starting to turn into a circus show for no one.

Go Cardi. You're the boss. 

To all the one's who will judge this as low-conscious , this is also life, this is Absolute perfection, this is everything. Your judgements are also. This is freedom's expression. Disgust is also freedom's expression. 

[Princess Arabia]

There are no shortages of stories in the world. It's just a matter of which one you want to listen to and be entertained by. Tomorrow you wake up, there will be another story for life's entertainment. It's always another one and another one and another one and another. Ever since the break of dawn. Ever since you've known yourself to exist. Life is filled with stories. No matter what it is, as long as it's continuous and being observed, it's a story. What's appearing in not a story in and in of itself. What's appearing is simply just appearing. It's the narrative about what's appearing that's the story. 

A man having sex with a woman other than his wife is a man having sex with a woman other than his wife. That's it. The story is, a man has cheated, a man has fornicated, a man even having a wife is a story. A man even having sex is the story. I had to word it the way I did for clarity. It's life sexing. No one has sex, sex is sexing. This is all Absolute stuff yes and we will write it off as the Absolute and say let's come back to reality. No, no, that is the actual reality, the other stuff, the relative is the artificial reality. It is the fake reality. The stories about reality, which is every definition, label, categorizing etc. that's artificial and more like a simulation. The real deal is Absolute. It's all Absolute including the stories.
