Exactly. Think of it like you're the developer now going back and playing the game.  As the player you still have to adhere to the rules of the game and for a moment you can forget you are the developer via imagination.   The only difference is you don't have direct access to the cheat codes at will.  You broke through the code once and realized your were the developer but it's not like  you gave yourself anytime access to the cheat codes now anytime you wanted. The reason for this is you weren't ready to leave the game.  If you had God mode access anytime you wanted there wouldn't be a game. And you love the game. 

You're pointing to absolute acceptance with this, yes?

So if sth happens, it's because sth/sme - let's call it higher self for simplicity - want it to happen this way. Any struggle against what is happening would be struggle against your higher self and your "own" intentions etc right?

Core assumption is then that sme/sth is in control, like a central creator, reality execution mechanism that let's certain events happen. Events like meeting person (partner, friend, business associate) randomly, winning the lottery, your house destroyed by a hurricane (and before that, your decision that let the event to move into hurricane area, and before that, the decision to move at all, etc etc)

I experienced some pointers in this direction, as if sme/sth wants to "show" me that anything is possible, that any event can be created at will. Super strange synchronicites and coincidences.

@Inliytened1 What's your take re personal responsibility and agency, free will?

You can merge with other people's minds in expanded states, especially NDEs.

I'd move almost all of these kinds of posts to the Intellectual subforum.

Trueee. But it's intellectual on the same level as the posts in the self-development or politics sub-forum. It's not 🤓 intellectual, but 🧘 intellectual.

Yeah. Also, it's a bit more abstract and airy-fairy than usual - compared to the other sub-forums, which deal with more "mundane" matters.

What happens when the I tries to look at the I it is

All it sees is the I 

All it sees is it is I

Then you realize even the “I” is just an identity to the said experience get rid of the I too. Still clinging!

There’s nothing else to see. I is known conceptually, never seen.

Yeah when it happens it feels like a movie that is scripted

Too strange to be "true"

Exactly that. Seriously, it often feels exactly like that. For example, just today.

Today I went to a bar with a friend, next to as a girl she's there alone I ask her if she wants to join us. We are in 4+ million city in 80+ million country.

We talk, turns out she grew up in the same small city I did, she personally knows my best friend from childhood because they work in the same (very big) company, and she went to the same school as I did and she loves the same teacher I adored most back then. Lol

I'm just waiting for the final call in this show so that everybody can stop pretending and drop their roles

@theleelajoker

I had a similar experience first night drinking with my college mates, first night out in a new town.

Close to the end of the night, we sat down at some pizza place and started talking with random people who came in (also students).

So this girl asks me "so you're from this here town *references my accent*?" I said "yes, true-bred 😊" (or something).

Her: "Me too. Which part of town?"

Me: *mentions part of town*

Her: "Ah, where did you go to school?"

Me: *mentions grade school I went to*

Her: "Oh? I worked there for a few years as an assistant".

Me: "🫨"

Her: "You know this one teacher *mentions my contact teacher*?"

Me: "yes 😯"

Her: "She is now the principal of the school."

And I was like "waaaaaaaaat 😵😵😵". Bruh, only a few minutes talking to this girl and she starts talking like she knows me AND blowing my mind at the same time 😂

Watch out, will turn out that she's the sister of your future wife's best friend and you will get to your bride because you make the same reference re the accent...just that it will be a Burger place, not Pizza 🍕 🍔
