Yeah, science boys can try all they want to explain this, but this is clearly a proof.

That's my double blind study :ph34r:


God is love

Whoever lives in love lives in God

And God in them

Or is it only one? When I say one I mean the one 'I'm' experiencing right now. What about Las Vegas consciousness?

Only consciousness can be conscious. "I am" and "Las Vegas" are only content in the infinite consciousness. You can't be experiencing consciousness as your question implies, because it's prior to all experience.

But don't listen to me. Here's a guy who can articulate it so much better:

It can be said that there is many consciousnesses or one, but I say unconsciousness is prior to all that dudes. I feel that is I.

Yep:). Nothingness 

Never heard of Nisargadatta. Cool. Would never have understood that until recently.

@cetus56

tried to put it out verbally in my thread awareness to unawareness. But it’s kinda hard to explain.

@Jack River How could you explain it when there is nothing there. Nothing explainable that is.

A beautiful example of social consciousness.

Humans have no problem seeing how individual cells emerge as an organism, such as a tree or human being. Yet, humans have the darndest time seeing how individual entities emerge as a social organism.

I have experienced this effect once.  There is this teacher called John D.R. and I was attending his three day meditation retreat in Dorset. And like many spriritual teachers, he was sitting in front of the room, while the audience sit in front of him, on chairs or on the floor. He was super still. Like a mountain. He also talked super slowly, and with the most limited movement. He had a very special energy about him, and crazy blue eyes. An hour into the sitting, while staring at him talk with questioners, I started hallucinating.  He started to melt and fuse with the space and the background. Also, his face started to shape shift into different faces. I was sober, super clear, and awake. And none of this creep me out or anything. It was the most natural thing ever. I asked my friend if she is witnessing anything, and she said no. So not sure what it was about! But it looked like that consciousness painting effect. Except in slow motion and less colorful.
