Cover should be a closeup of a mysterious face with no mouth.

That's not a problem. You can easily know it is Infinite. But that doesn't explain any of the detailed structure or experience. It doesn't tell you why chimpanzees are made of atoms rather than cubes of cheese. No, it's like knowing numbers go infinitely long but not being able to do complex math. A child who barely knows math can tell you that numbers go forever. Knowing a thing in general is a lot easier than knowing it in fine detail. You know for sure the moon is round but you don't know how many rocks are on the moon or how they all got there.

But Sufism does, no?

Maybe I will have an explanation by the time I finish writing the book.

Should sell for 6.66

Yes. Infinity is literally unknowable. It is too profound to be known. If it could be known, it would be finite, which by definition it isn't. That's why mysticism is technically true. If it could be known then it wouldn't be mystical. All explanations are conceptual and finite. You need duality for explanation to exist. So nonduality cannot have an explanation. That's why the sage sits in silence. Stunned silence is the final answer.

Infinity cannot be known in principle. It is a Mystery. Even God does not fully know God. That's what it means to be God. But you can gain insight into aspects of Infinity. It is piece-meal. Not everything is explained all at once like a child might expect.

Yes, explanation is a finite notion and Reality is Infinity. So you can't explain it ultimately, you have to just marvel at the Mystery of it. The deeper you Awaken, the more not-knowing dawns. It's counter-intuitive. It is not like science where you get more and more explanations for everything.

To the best of my current understanding, a human mind is not ever going to know why your life is exactly the way it is and not otherwise. Like, why aren't you are chimpanzee right now? I think there is an answer to that question but it is way beyond even Awakened consciousness. That's why I call it a Mystery. Even extremely deep Awakening is not going to give you a full accounting of experience. I still can't explain why I'm not a chimpanzee right now.

How many times must I say that it's about the process, not the answer. If you get the right answer on a math test but show the wrong work, you are still wrong. Because you fail to understand math.

A skunk is also God.

Yes, that's exactly how it works. Keep doing the good work. Welcome.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the humblest of them all? Natasha

Dude, I don't deny air quality is a thing. What do you expect me to do about it? Live on the moon for some unquantifiable and unknown effect? You have no idea if air quality makes any meaningful difference to someone.

Consciousness is one continuous flow. Like a river. This river has a structure. Why this structure vs some other is too complex for a human mind to comprehend.

Allow me to rephrase: She wants to sink her dirty claws into your soul. Curl up inside it like a cat.

Only sometimes.

Never. Mankind needs truth.

Yes, I would try to share more of my struggles. This is unnatural for me since I don't share my problems with anyone. But in a serious relationship you gotta do the hard stuff.

For the same reason you want to get inside her.

That was at the end of our relationship so there wasn't time for me to change. They just want you to share your struggles with them so they can get inside your mind.

That's a deep Mystery. I don't see how that explains anything. What patterns? What does resonance mean? How does it work? Where does it come from? Why is it needed at all?

Not quite that old. EverQuest 2. Which was meh.

What has your vibration explained? Reality is consistent because your psyche needs to be consistent for there to be a reality at all. The consistency and stability of Reality is just the stability of your own mind. You know what an unstable mind is like. That's when you dream.

I played a lot of the early MMOs. I will never play an MMO that isn't sandbox.
