@SalvijusThats how it denies itself it cant look away from itself. 

You don't deny yourself by looking at yourself from different angles. Quite the opposite, it complements your understanding of what you are.

@SalvijusThats how absolute does. It ignores that its left hand exists to focus on its right hand. Next time you wake up in the morning stay in bed and keep looking behind your eyes all day. When you cant help but get up then you are denying your absolute form to focus on your right hand.

How you go/How long it may last/Venture life, burn your dread

There's no need to ignore anything. You can hold both perspectives at the same time without any contradiction. They work together very well.

@Salvijus then next time you wake up for 24 hours lay in bed staring at the darkness behind your eyes and come back and say you did it and you are satisfied. You are scared of it thats why you get up in the morning and don't want to and won't do it.

I don't mean to be rude, but you two are proving the videos point on spiritual ego.

@Salvijus @DLH I like when people can have a full discussion and not leave halfway through. That needs alot of back and forth. Its kind of egoic but we are getting down to the single thing. The video you posted was spiritual ego. We are not telling people how to be we are having a philosophical discussion. We aren't talking about ourselves or telling people to be this or that we are discussing God.

The video you posted was definition of spiritual ego.

Well I know there's heat. But I don't mind. It can still be beneficial.

What I believe I am witnessing is a philosophical "Spiritual EGO" discussion. I could be wrong.

Enjoy your conversation.

God IS eternal satisfaction.

But for a human, no.

Nothing can be lacking in God.

You're not wrong. You're just missing a deeper meaning of it. There's a positive side to it aswell.

I am not so sure about “God IS eternal satisfaction”.

I may be missing what you are pointing towards, but from my perspective, we are GOD, and we are constantly exploring the unknown.  Maybe not everyone…. lol

Google defines “Satisfaction” as a feeling of contentment and happiness that comes from having a need or desire fulfilled.

Has God stopped expanding into the unknown because it has its desires and needs fulfilled?   I don’t know.

I guess God can be content with IS-ness, but wouldn’t it be curious to expand beyond that fulfillment and sense of IS-ness or Being-ness?

There's an opportunity to look and transencd the ego that comes up in these heated situations. That's what you're missing.
