Name 1 thing which is not included in NOW and/or is not included in your perspective

In my perspective there is a phone and a room.  Is all that is possible a phone and a room ? Or maybe you would say that no, but the other possibilities are going to happen "after". Then, is the reality a timeline, or maybe the time is an arising that happens in the reality? 

If the reality is not a timeline, nor an individual or witness, then, where are the other possibilities now? I only see a phone.

The unyielding tiger has very little in common with "If you look at it directly, it collapses quickly, in minutes."

The tiger is a perception that happens, your mind is creating a tiger and a you/center based in a real tiger that is threatening a real body. 

If you are at home without hungry tigers, you can look inside, focusing in the mind, then perceive a self/center/subject in that mind and a object/perception , and collapse them because both are a creation of the mind. But "creation" doesn't mean "illusion", because that self/center represent a living organism that's real, and the perception represent an universe that also is real, and both are changing information constantly.

If that information is the hungry tiger, you won't be able to collapse the duality because your genetic conditioning would prevail. Maybe you could have the feeling before death of: well, let's go to be one again with the whole, let's open our heart and our mind and surrender to the absolute. Bye and alleluia. But the situation wouldn't be an illusion, just the reality, same than your mind, that's the reality expressed as a mind that knows that is, or if you prefer, as the reality looking/knowing itself.

Well if you (God) created/imagined them, then these minds exist now, no?

According the solipsistic paradigm, they don't exist as minds, only as images that you are seeing. Are illusion without real experiences, because you as God are creating them in order to have a realistic human experience, but you have the power to hide that fact to yourself. Until you awake and you see the trick .

People unnecessarily overcomplicate all this stuff so much, it's crazy. When it's actually incredibly simple.

"I" can only exist in relation to "not I".

"Now" can only exist in relation to "not now".

"One mind" can only exist in relation to "multiple minds".

"All is one" can only exist in relation to "all is not one".

The only thing/no-thing/everything that has no opposite and therefore is Absolute is reality itself, which is all that there is. Anything else you can name, think of and experience are relative facets/qualities/perspectives that can only exist in relation and contrast to their respective opposite.

This isn't rocket science, folks.


The World Is Illusion.

Only Brahman Is Real.

The World Is Brahman.
