Relax dude lol

@blazed Non existence means that the dream is not real or things in it arent. Thats it.

Living morally is imposing boundaries on reality. You dont need to 'live morally' to be moral. If you see that everything is One, you will be moral in your own way.

True knowledge isn't possible from the POV of Absolute. Inference is only possible in the dream. Enlightenment is awakening from the dream. Meaning assumes associations, associations assumes objects. Objects exist only in the dream, they come from the distinction of self and other(that's a duality). Value is like saying one object is better than other. Same thing. Meaning and Value have no place in Absolute. They exist only in relation.

Nice

@Faceless Wonderful

Hey now, I wish no hate towards you and obviously dont wish cancer on you. I said the cancer thing so you can contemplate on your own statement. I wish you well

@Etagnwo Btw i think you are new so welcome to the forum

I also thought enlightened people have a halo on top of their heads. Apparently I was wrong

I criticised him from love not hatred

You told faceless that you hope he gets hit by a bus, but I cant say i hope you die of cancer now? I sense hyocrisy I am not in the least triggered neither I have anything against you. Faceless was trying to have a discussion and you pull stuff like he gets hit by a bus. Thats my point and you didnt get it, instead you try to be the morally right guy. I wonder who is the one who is too emotionally unstable and socially immature. I say all this in the nicest way possible believe me

And I hope you die of cancer Then you might learn how to talk to people in the next life

Np yh I got it

Yes yes. i try to be as simple as possible

@Faceless

Yes I what I mean is consciousness only, I just use more words for the sake of understanding

I dont mean higher self, true self is consciousness only

Can you really confirm the existence of other consciousness like yourself?

Can two Absolute Truths exist?? You must ask yourself this. This is a excerpt from my book Non Duality Explained Non dual literally means ‘not two’ or that no two truths can exist. It is based on two assumptions:- Objective knowledge isn’t possible as reality that we experience is constantly changing Reality as we know it is One not two Thus, There is Only One Truth and that Truth is All Now you may ask, as to how we have come to these two conclusions? Aren’t these two assumptions also two truths? Non Duality Derived We can’t say that truth does not exist, as it would amount to a logical contradiction. To say that truth does not exist is a self nullifying statement. So we conclude that TRUTH exists. Lets classify Truth with a capital ’T’ as something of which we can be absolutely certain. So Truth is something that is: Not subject to change Makes one absolutely certain of it Thus, Qualities of something Absolutely True must be not be subjected to any duality It must be : Timeless Omnipresent Impersonal Constant and Unchanging Not subjected to any limitations i.e Infinite False never existed, Only Truth exists so it contains everything There can’t be two absolute truths so Absolute Truth is not subjected to any duality Now we have to say that something exists for sure, lets call it Consciousness So, if Absolute Truth is Everything And, consciousness Exists Consiousness is Everything What is Self There are two types of self: Self with a capital “S” and self with a lower “s” ’S'elf is your true self whereas ’s'elf is your conceptual self. The conceptual self includes: Your memories Beliefs Assumptions Associations The True Self includes: Everything that is left when the conceptual self is removed or we can say simply Being Thus if Consciousness is everything You experience that consciousness through your true self Thus comes the saying Tat Tvam Asi ( You are it )

I can see the work you have put into this. Great stuff!

I can understand, I think a better term would be different types of ego distortions rather than levels of consciousness. The whole problem with levels of consciousness thing is, it assumes enlightenment is this never ending journey and there are levels to it. People who say this even unintentionally are messing up other people. Although true seekers would intuitively know there are no levels and would ignore it.

The limited self blocks the consciousness from pouring through you, so it creates a distorted view of the world. After enlightenment you become consciousness itself so ego or limited self is completely eliminated. The more is this segregation of the self from consciousness, more will be the distortion.

Its more like how entrenched people are in their limited self. If you notice, consciousness has always remained the same. The more people are identified with their limited self, further they are away from their natural state. Also some people might be naturally more empathetic than others (in case of mother theresa)
