I Can't Believe I'm Not A Person

[A Fellow Lighter]

I've been imagining that I'm a person, but I'm actually not. 

Leo, bro, this is insane

You are God hallucinating Leo’s bald, intelligent head that has no brain.

*ding dong*

I just tossed my Amazon package across the room CUz it’s nonsense!

The map/brain is not the territory. 

People don’t exist. Only God. There can be no others without God. You and Others are One. 

Separate others are illusions hallucinated by One Mind.

@A Fellow Lighter You are a person. The person isnt the human. When the human body dies the person goes somewhere.

Don’t believe that you are not a person. Just investigate it for yourself. See what you really are. You can do it.

[Someone here]

The “you” is not a separate entity that exists in an absolute..independent .. self-sustaining way. For example..if the lungs stop breathing.. the “you” disappears. If the head is smashed with a hammer.. the “you” disappears as well. The “you” is an emergent phenomenon arising from other factors that are not normally considered to be “you.”

A "person" is just a label, as such you will always be more than any label can describe. Said differently, what you "are" is a bunch of labels: but that's just language.

When one can literally become anything that it imagines, and be that imagined entity with full immersion, what does that say about what the one doing the imagining is? 

I really am not a person. There is an I , sure. But it's not a person. I am that which can imagine itself to be anything. Not hallucinate — imagine. My imaginations aren't illusions. They are solid matter.

People are too quick to invoke the term God, but I find that term to still be associated with some form of personhood or divine personality. In that case, that would make me greater than God, because I imagined that identity as well.

With that said, call the highest reality whatever you feel like calling it. But once it is defined or outlined in any way, then you are greater than it, because that reality or entity is imagined by you. 

You and I are literally one. But for as long as you believe that you are a person, I will always be an other to you.
