  1. In the end, there is only Absolute Truth. Relative truth isn't really real. But also it sorta is
  2. This is not a free for all. This is a spiritual classroom. I am the teacher here. This is my teaching platform. If you don't like it, you can go follow some other teacher or start your own platform. I learn a lot from my students, but I am not in a student position within my own school in the way that you are. Our relationship is not symmetrical here. You are being led and I am in the leadership position. If you disagree with my leadership then don't follow me. As the leader I am not infallible. But I must still make the final call. That's how leadership works. It becomes problematic and pathological when you try to have it both ways: on the one hand you want to be led, on the other hand you want to lead the leader. It is a mistake to go into a spiritual school and try to lead the leader as a student. You can give feedback, but only up to a certain point. If you reach a point where your feedback becomes constant disagreement with the leader, then it is your duty to leave and go off on your own or find a new person to follow. All of this should be common sense and go without saying. But apparently some folks here need it said. Consider this: If Christ himself descended from Heaven and started to teach you, you would find a 1001 ways to disagree with him and challenge his leadership. Because that's what the ego-mind does. Either that, or it worships. Both are problematic.
  3. @Aakash Absolute Truth cannot ever be symbolized because of the nature of what a symbol is. A symbol is, by definition, a thing which tries to not be itself. So every symbol is a lie. That's the whole utility of symbols. The map is not the territory. Because the map is part of the territory. Truth must be totally direct. There cannot be any intermediate process to it. No thought, no brain, no perception, no reason, no symbol. Because all of that is itself part of Truth. Truth is the Absolute Infinite set. The super-set of all sub-sets. Truth is simply Being. Whatever is, is the Truth. The Truth cannot be spoken or pointed to. Because even the pointer is itself part of the Truth which you are trying to grasp. In fact, YOU are Truth you're trying to grasp. Truth cannot be grasped because whatever you try to grasp it with, it itself. So the only way to "grasp" the Truth is to BE it. A knife blade cannot cut itself, the eye cannot see itself, a finger cannot point to itself. Because they just ARE! This is the self-reference problem.

  4. There is no more worthwhile act for a human being than to take 5-MeO-DMT. Saying you are too busy to take 5-MeO-DMT is what's silly. You got nothing better to do. It's not just about getting home. It's about exploring your home deeper. There are rooms in your home you never knew existed.
  5. I told him it's pure enlightenment. He said that's impossible. Well, the impossible is possible. Discover for yourselves. I am just a messenger.
  6. Sure. It is impossible to take every thing someone suggests to you without discrimination. There are literally 1000s of research chemicals which almost no human being has ever taken. And some of them can be very nasty. I am not gonna ever try them all. But to refuse to try 5-MeO-DMT given its well-documented track record is quite foolish. I don't care how enlightened you are. This substance is pure magic. This is the actual Holy Grail in powdered form. And yet most people criticize and ridicule it. It's quite sad really. God presents itself to you in powdered form and you reject him. Why? For some silly reason?
  7. No, that is not what QM says. What it says is: it does not have a position or velocity. It's not merely that our equipment is not good enough to measure it. It's that all measurement itself is relative and constructive. Positions, velocities, and even individual particles do not have an individual distinct objective reality. They are artifacts of the kinds of questions you pose to the world. If you change your questions you will get different answers. The world is not made out of individual particles as though a castle built of Lego bricks. This is a silly, childish idea which has been long disproven by mainstream science. You cannot ground reality whatsoever. Not in particles, not in strings, not in mathematics, not in positions, not in 3D space, not in time, not in velocities, not in objects, not in the brain, not in the Big Bang, not in evolution, not in science, not in logic, not in anything. It is groundless and absolutely infinite.
  8. @Aakash To me it is clear what the Buddha realized because I have realized it. But it cannot be said or even taught. It is totally impossible. I don't even know why I bother talking about it. No one will understand. As the Buddha is said to have said. No one will understand.
  9. Everything is totally relative. You cannot ground reality in any thing. Any form you say is fundamental, isn't. QM hit its face against this brick wall.
  10. Total omniscience simply cannot be explained in any way. In that moement you are conscious of how you designed the entire universe. It is God's total omniscience. It goes way beyond knowledge. It is the whole universe.
  11. Even if you meet a person you will still not know their degree of enlightenment. I have always said that talking about other people's enlightenment is speculative. Nevertheless, speculate you will. Some of you here speculate poorly.
  12. You are failing to vaporize it properly and/or inhale it properly.
  13. @Ar_Senses There isn't a mechanism. Reality is direct. What you see is exactly what it is.
  14. @Dylan Page The problem is that you are assuming nothing and something are objectively distinguishable. They are not. Since there is no one to say what is nothing and what is something, they become identical. Reality cannot know whether it is something or nothing. So it is both at once.
  15. @Pallero The answers are rarely gotten straight away. Sometimes it takes weeks or months of contemplation.
  16. Some degree of realization of no-self. The attachment with being exclusively identified with the body must be broken. This is usually called stream-entry in Buddhism or kensho in Zen. There are much much deeper levels. Total omniscience is possible. I recently peaked into total omnisicence. It's so fucking radical.
  17. @Pallero Gotta start somewhere. Start NOW! It's like you're asking, "But what if someone is too fat to cut back on eating?"
  18. We don't discuss sourcing on this forum. Depends on you. Normal function resumes after 60 minutes. But you may not care about uni any more after that.
  19. That may very well be true. But that does not negate Mooji's enlightenment.
  20. Gotta start somewhere. Even the dumbest person can turn inward and get answers.
  21. Full bliss? Lol You expect an enlightened master to always be bubbly for you? You will be disappointed. Enlightenment is not limited to any one emotional state. Most enlightened masters look so ordinary and normal that you would never know they were enlightened, like a cat sitting on a windowsill. It does not need to satisfy any of your expectations. It's just sitting and being.
  22. @LoveandPurpose Just ask yourself. It isn't so complicated. All the answers are inside you. You are looking everywhere but inside.
  23. Well that is definitely true. Not sure why this would make you doubt his enlightenment. Keep in mind, people can talk about the same things in different ways.
