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.

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.

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.

You are failing to vaporize it properly and/or inhale it properly.

@Ar_Senses There isn't a mechanism. Reality is direct. What you see is exactly what it is.

@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.

@Pallero The answers are rarely gotten straight away. Sometimes it takes weeks or months of contemplation.

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.

@Pallero Gotta start somewhere. Start NOW! It's like you're asking, "But what if someone is too fat to cut back on eating?"

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.

That may very well be true. But that does not negate Mooji's enlightenment.

Gotta start somewhere. Even the dumbest person can turn inward and get answers.

No he isn't.

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.

God sees all

@LoveandPurpose Just ask yourself. It isn't so complicated. All the answers are inside you. You are looking everywhere but inside.

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.

Baseline human awareness is not high enough to notice the Eternity of NOW. Human consciousness is deliberately time-bound to aid your survival. Eternity will only become noticable through practices or psychedelics. But Eternity is always the case. It is always NOW, NOW, NOW. Every temporal experience is actually eternal and has existed forever. But you aren't noticing it. You must realize that you are inside the Absolute at all times. The relative is actually the Absolute when looked at deeply enough.

@ValiantSalvatore If you get your hands on 5-MeO, you will not need anything else.

None of that comes anywhere close to 5-MeO-DMT. Many Western enlightened masters have taken LSD. But LSD ain't good enough. Shinzen probably is open enough. But I would worry it might kill him. Him's pretty old. A full-on 5-MeO breakthrough is a terrifying thing. It will give you a panic attack.

@mkrksms Yes, because it requires a change in your state of consciousness. You cannot ever understand it while maintaining your current state.

You can do all that. But when you chase 4 rabbits you may end up catching none.

@Joseph Maynor In practice your action will all be co-opted by ego and survival, thus perpetuating Maya. The most important thing is changing your state of consciousness. Without that, all actions stems from a fundamentally deluded state.

This particular discussion is fruitless. God both created itself, and it has always existed. Because existence, creation, intelligence, being, will, truth, understanding, and love are all one.

The problem with offering an old man 5-MeO is that I don't wanna kill the poor guy. I offered it to Ralston. He refused, ridiculing me. Closedmindness is a hell of an obstacle to this work. A person with 40 years experience is also a know-it-all in his own mind.
