The myth of enlightenment

As for what you’ve just said there, you’ll have to try and explain to me what you mean by that comment because I’ve absolutely no idea what you’re saying to me.

What I meant to say is that enlightenment is not a myth; it's basically breaking the energetic bubble inherent in being human, made of the need to be yourself.

Still don’t understand what you mean. But that doesn’t mean you don’t know what you mean, of course.

I understand only myself, because that’s the only self I’ve ever experienced. I have no interest in getting inside someone else’s self just to maybe hang out and have a Costa or something, I can do that with my cat, less confusing.

As you want but as you are talking in a forum I guess that you want to perceive other people, interact , communicate

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m doing here. I love to interact with other people, particularly on forums such as the likes of this one that support the idea of solipsism and other stuff like god and consciousness.

 I mean what else is there to do for one alone consciousness but to imagine an external world full of things? Even though consciousness already knows that the consciousness and content of consciousness are identically one and all the other things, even though they are just figments of the imagination. That’s the point, to dare to dream.

Could be. Communication and connecting with other minds gives a feeling of reality, life. Maybe that's why it's addictive

Solipsism explains everything you need to know about the problem of other minds. That’s the only subject, the problem of other minds, that makes any real tangible sense to me. But that’s just how I roll. It’s not for everyone.

It's the same if solipsism is true or not, if you don't think about it it's irrelevant. What is real is what you are, not the idea of how reality is. But anyway, tired of myself being smartass for today.

 Take this as an example:

Leo had many extraordinary Godlike experiences. But these experiences, I believe, cannot be brought back to his human state of mind. 

As a human, he is a small fraction of God's mind. But so are we.

When you say.. “ what is real is what you are “…that’s still presupposing an idea of how reality is. It’s still a presuppositional claim, which is the very “thought” that you are trying to negate when you said..” if you don’t think about it it’s irrelevant “

The problem with saying “dont think about it” is it’s nonsensical because that’s still an instruction of how to do something. Saying “don’t think about it”  is still doing something, where there’s a thinking about not thinking. There is still a claim being made there of how reality is. 

So your argument for what’s true or not is going nowhere, you’re like a tar baby trying to stack post-it notes to the moon.

 

Solipsism means oneness. Nobody is saying how oneness is because how does one thing exist? How does a body tell itself it exists. 
 

The how never arises for the body, because the body functions alone. There’s no one driving the engine. That’s solipsism in a nutshell.

So who is no one? That’s the one question to all our answers. It’s still an idea, and what’s an idea? I’ve absolutely no idea.

There’s not a some of us, there’s only consciousness reflecting itself, looking at it self. 
 

“Selves” are an auditory illusion of light and sound. 

Really?

I mean what you are without any conceptualization, the real being now

The body functions according the laws of the universe, and it's changing information with the universe without pause. It's part of the universe but same time it's separate

Yes really.

 

Selves are real fictional characters within the artificial simulated dream of separation.

I’ve no idea what you’re showing me here. But obviously, that doesn’t mean it’s not true, it’s your truth so that’s all that matters really.

You said that the body functions alone , then there is no other, I told you that the body doesn't work alone, it works according the laws of electromagnetic fields, the gluons, higgs and all that stuff. Nothing is "alone", everything is interconnected. Anyone who wants to say: I'm a solipsist, maybe first should do some investigation. If not is like saying: I'm flat earth believer because that makes me feel safe.

Okay.
