You are trying to reach outside of infinity to define infinity, which is impossible, since everything is infinity. Infinity is undefinable, because any definition you construct will be infinity itself. You see, definition requires duality, but reality is nondual. When you ask such questions it is like trying to pull yourself out of quicksand by pulling on your own hair. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

Posted January 24, 2021 Yeah, it then goes to, like, eternal regression, and it is Mind trying to pinpoint itself, but it is not an it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Transcending a thought is not the same as transcending the mind - imo. No, mind is a thought. If you never learn what mind is can you ever be aware of it? Or if you dont think about the mind, will it be exist? "It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 24, 2021 Mind is thought in the same way that life is dog. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And of course, in strange loop fashion, Mind imagines itself into existence. Which is how God created itself. Alright. But there is a mechanism of some sort. It's obvious to me. Yes, letting go and simply admiring the magic of it is beautiful. But it can be understood directly - imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 24, 2021 @Vibroverse That seems like an 'easy way out' to me. It's possible to know. Not knowing is only half of the journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 24, 2021 @ivankiss Go get a PhD in neuroscience and maybe you'll discover a tiny, tiny part of the mechanism if you devote your entire life to research. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say that's unnecessary. All I really need is a strong enough will and sharp enough awareness. Yes it's infinite. And yes there is 'a root'.

See, you want to know but you're lazy as fuck and refuse to do any of the work while some poor PhD student slaves away in a lab. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.
