Enlightenment FAQ - Part 1 - All Your Questions Answered

Essentially, there is no 'you' and the notion of free will is an aspect of the illusion.

Life has no meaning value and purpose, the judgement of nihilism as bad is a trap that is a life that is not liberated. 
The illusion of the self is what cultivates a narrow and shallow emotional experience.

All Of Religion Explained In One Video

There is an absolute truth, and it is accessible to human beings. But the rational mind will not gain access. 
The true self is nothing, which is everything. This is enlightenment.

What is existence is he next stage of enlightenment, highlighting the infinite nature of love and structure. 

Another enlightenment that can be had is the infinite notion that we are all no thing, this is the infinite regress of the atman, as the strange loop which is looking at and pointing to itself. 
The nothingness idea, or the void is the origin of existence and the origin of the notions of self and the stories which ae idenitified with

The core structure of a religion is to fortify the illusion.

The identification of the self as real has a parallel to the system of religion, one becomes idenitified with the narrative, this is the observation of the mechanism of the illusion. Religious stories and myths are part of that idea that we are the narrative, but these are approximations of the revelation, it is recognising that the divine order is opening itself up to the experiencer who has seen through the illusion.

All religions are based on the idea of no self, this is something like the parting of the way for Moses, which opens up the doors of perception. 

Seeing religions as having a unified goal of observation to the divine is the way they all operate in the same way.

Historically, seeing through the illusion of the self was diifcult, rare and difficult to communicate, this is why story telling became central to the persistance of the religion.

Much of the extra writing about the religions are distractions that are emboldening the narrative of the self as a means of influencing culture. 

What is god? Absolute nothingness

Heaven and hell? These are psychological perceptions at least.

Heaven is becoming absolute nothingness. 

Leo is selling an illusion with being untouchable.

Good and evil are relative and metaphorical, evil is distilling the ego. 

Good is breaking through the illusion and seeing that you are everything. 

Salvation is realising the truth.

Science vs Religion - The Absurdity Revealed!
Intro
This is the root of the pre-rational/post-rational fallacy

Pre-rational thinking is something like the superstitious thinking, like tarot.
Post-rational is the belief that 

The scientific thinker is less accomplished than the mystic who has transcended the self, leading from Maslow's self-transcendence.

The problem min-body problem is the internal and external world distinction, the first to the third person.

The dualism leads to a dichotomy.

The science has ignored first person phenomena and has neglected to resolve the first and third person dichotomy that creates the subject/object duality.

Leads into the model of spiral dynamics showing that there are ways of looking at religion that fall into the model of spiral dynamics, for instance, the bible with a relativistic interpretation. 

This video essentially views the religion vs science interpretation through the prism of Spiral Dynamics which is built on interviews based on systems of values. 

Rationalism is a tool to maintain the illusion of the self.

Do not mistake the model for the territory, this is particularly pertinent in shadow work as this brings the conceptual structure of The Divine Comedy and turns it into a framework through which we come to see and the digging of the subconscious. 

Dogma is the root cause of all problems as the narrative of the self is the mechanism which collects itself into a group.

Understanding Awareness - The Staggering Depth Of Your Unawareness Revealed

No matter the value evaluation applied to awareness, this will be an underestimation. 

Given awareness is infinite, knowledge and love are infinite, this will mean that given the limits of human conception, it will never be enough to comprehend and will require continual dissolution of the frame, leading to the frameless frame. 

Comprehending that you are unaware allows for the expansion of the unawareness to be turned into awareness, something like turning dark into light. 

The unawareness of the unawareness is the catch 22 of the unawareness and this is the problem, with the infinite nature of knowledge/structure, this shows that also finding the methods to take the awareness and elevate it, is the difficulty.

Knowledge will not expand knowlede, the only currency to raise awareness is practice. This is the meditation, the spiritual autolysis, the yoga to relinquish the stressors in the body.

Peter Ouspensky wrote the psychology of man's possible evolution

These are the key points:

1: Humans assumes that they know themself, but they don't realise the automation of their actions, assuming will when there is none. And people won't admit it which is why people get shitty when they realise their actions are not there own.

2: You need to appreciate how asleep you are before taking up the quest of raising awarness. It's impossible to imagine the potential states of consciousness.

3: Ouspensky definition of psychology is 1: It's the study of man's possible evolution, which is about raising upper limits. 2: Is the study of oneself, especially the machine like nature, the scripts. 3: Finally the study of lying, which is the outline of the self-deception Leo mentions and the benefits of radical honesty. 

4: It is difficult to convince a person that they do not have self consciousness, this is about the gradations.

Self consciousness test
60 seconds of staying self conscious for 60 seconds, had a memory from just before I left in 2019. 

All bad habits are mechanical distractions, these are the illustrations of the ego look to fortify it's identity, I am the type of person who does those types of things. 

Constructing a manual on how my body machine might run is a way to develop the methods to hack the system.

Method
A lot of the bad behaviours are because of automations that are predicated on an ego of automation 'I am the type of person who does those types of things'.

Outlining

The study must begin with a study of the obstacles to consciousness, this means outlining the ego identifications following this framework 'I am the type of person who '.
A disposition of love is the cure for these ego identifications upon extracting them.

Noticing
This is a scanning meditation, noticing parts of your body. 

Acquiring self-awareness is long and hard work, if a person believes they have it, they will never seek to acquire heightened awareness.

The Ultimate Model Of Human Knowledge - All Knowledge Explained!

History of culture being blind to another culture, this kind of supremacist attitude was what lead to a lot of wars. 

How does someone know if they are not bullshitting themselves? This is the cartesian doubt view. 

Epistemology & metaphysics

1: Epistemology is how do we know what is true?

2: metaphysics is what is true?

How do intelligent people hold incorrect beliefs passionately?

Likely due to an emotional attachment that has attached itself to the person's ego trying to survive.

In epistemology, there are justifications that provide clarity about what is true. 

The epistemology is the continual question of 'how do I know that is true?' which is a demonstration that everything is predicated on an assumption. 

People believe things because it fits into other things about the world, there is an emotional truth to it. 

How does a person know they can trust their feelings? What is the universe is not intuitive?

If all beliefs are scrutinised, all justifications are based on an assumption, this is Jed McKenna's all beliefs are false. 

This is essentially a notion that knowledge is an infinite nodal network. Infinite structure as my awakening demonstrated.

Everyone creates fictional entities and projects their limited views onto the entities. 

The knowledge graph is maya, the more you learn, the deeper maya gets, which requires a reset back to consciousness activities fairly frequently.

1 Why Did Buddha Say Life is Suffering? - The Consciousness Podcast with Peter Ralston

Is life suffering?

Is life the living things or your personal life, is this the broad summary of existence or the individual (likely the egoic self).

There is no reason to say 'Life is suffering'. We don't know exactly what the Buddha is suggesting. 

Can be the individual self having a bad time, that is true and a lot of it is unecessary (which ending unecessary suffering).

Unecessary suffering is vast. 

Clearing out all the anguish that leads to suffering would make a person a lot happier. You would be free of all that stuff also. 

Ralston doesn't believe he was talking about the individual psyche.

(For me it is the attachment to wanting the world to be a certain way and when the attachment to instigating an outcome drops away the suffering).

Do something physical to get yourself out of your mind and this will improve your mood. 

Because you exist, you are separate and isolated, this is the dualistic worldview that cultivates distinctions. 

Due to the separateness of the ego, this leads to a creation of loneliness. 

The self is like living in a bucket, and transcending the self, this creates the unity. 

Choosing the self, the identity that is fixed, is the choice of the devil. This is mirrored in the pyramids as a symbol for the pharaoh hardening his heart. 

To serve in heaven is to surrender the identification with the certain identity. 

'To reign in hell is the definite self contained within a prison of you, to serve in heaven is to give the identification up'

The act of being a self is what the Buddha meant by suffering, this is what Peter Ralston believes. 

The proble of life is always the problem of you. How do I become the type of person who does those types of things and gets those types of material things.
