Why are we able to remember awakening?

11 posts in this topic

If awakening is an ineffable experience, that transcends time and space, how is it possible that we can come back from it and somehow remember it?

Where is the memory of such an experience stored? How can it be stored in the brain, if it’s just a limited material object?

Or do we have to suppose that somehow every memory we have of it is not true?

Good luck getting answers to these types of questions that drugs cannot give the answers to and cannot be experienced. You see, it's one thing to have an experience of awakening and claiming it to be "my awakening", but it's another to explain the mechanics of what allowed for it to be a felt personal experience which cannot be explained without stories and ideas because there's nothing personal about life and there's actually no one behind these so-called awakening experiences to explain what you're inquiring about without story-telling like i said.

 

 


What you know leaves what you don't know and what you don't know is all there is.

However, the answer to your inquiry is that the absolute/nothing/this/all there is, appears as a person that has had an awakening and also as memory. There is nowhere memory is stored as every appearance is fresh and new. That's just a story told by the dream of cause and effect.  No one came back from anything. It's the absolute appearing as someone coming back from an awakening. Every appearance is the absolute appearing as...... fresh and new and nothing is continuously happening. Continuity is also within that dream. There's no one here having any awakenings simply because there's no one here. There is only the absolute.

There is only the Absolute, Timeless, ineffible right now.

Take your direct experience now, the knowing that you are ,itself, is the portal, and the only reality of everything else experienced is also that knowing that you are. 

Time and space are appearances, the way the Absolute looks when filtered through a finite mind, like a snapshot of the Absolute from a point of view. But that time and space is just an appearance, its actually only the Absolute. 

I myself don't remember such experiences of the timeless. I don't know what stuff others have taken, I haven't smoked that shit, I am only aware of the timeless now as the knowing I am (being).

Consider that it is not an experience, and hence not subject to the mind or perception. Simply set aside all those rumors and notions and get who you are.

An explanation is you are not even in your body right now. The body is not remembering it, something else is that has memory. And its effecting that thing so much, that its radiating love through the entire body. Something else is being effected by awakening ie your soul and your soul is so tiny and so powerful that it is able to cause the entire human system to convulse therefore reacting to the event it isn't even having. As if your car was ran not by gasoline or an engine but a tiny nuclear reactor that isn't even in the car its in another dimension entirely.

If the body was a car your soul is like a person wearing a vr headset sitting in a house and putting a camera in the driver's seat of the car and then driving like that. Awakening is like the person in the house realizing they are not in the car while they are driving it. Somehow its like the person in the house getting so excited that it effects the car that they aren't in. Thats how powerful the soul is.

The car then says something just fkin happened to me!

Is this what is also known as the Akashic records?

@cistanche_enjoyerKinda there is another dimension to life like imagination world all of everything you idenfiy with is there, everyone is there on like a hard drive forever. There is physical data and there is meta physical data like imagination and everything. We exist in that dimension and when we die we go there. The metaphysical world of imagination catches you before you die. You arent the akashic records you are the thing that can witness the metaphysical dimension and the physical dimension at the same time. That thing can go to the metaphysical domain and remember.

When you go there your entire body dissapears and 'you' arent there anymore you are something else. The light you see is completely void of information and personality. All of that stuff is taking place under the curtain of reality. The akashic records are like all the information about you and the earth.

@cistanche_enjoyerI saw both. Finding God is like a realization that life itself is so intelligent it created an entire other dimension to avoid death. Like the picture of a plant breaking through concrete to survive life does that on a dimensional level too.
