@Jack River because the problem was never thought, it was conscience. a deep pit of dispair that had nothing to do with thought

@Jack River regurgitating krishnamurti won’t save you

Very few people on this forum will be able to understand the words of the Bible, because many do practices that are the very antithesis of what it teaches. I know, I've been there. Claiming you can see reality more clearly, when youre really just blasting yourself into outer space....coming closer and closer to 'blissful combustion' as Aleister Crowley so eloquently put it. Your soul is probably so blank that you can't even comprehend that fact.

this is getting ridiculous. you know nothing of the message of the bible yet cling to your idea of the meaning of 'one' and 'soul' as youve been taught to do

You're being deceived

Better ask the people who profit from Catholicism. as for smaller churches though, think of it like this - why does actualized.org exist if all the work is done yourself? Because no man is an island

this refers to the kingdom of god not existing within any church - certaintly not catholic churches you do it through walking in the faith of christ

Jeremiah 18:12 "But they will say, 'It's hopeless! For we are going to follow our own plans, and each of us will act according to the stubbornness of his evil heart.'

You’ve been high on nonduality the withdrawals will be metaphysical play with fire and you will get burnt

Time is running out look at the way society is configured. It’s a hierarchy. Who’s at the top? Why has it been set up this way? Did you see it being set up or did you read it somewhere? What do you really know about the forces which formed your reality? why are certain messages and memes being trickled down in plain sight? Why is maximum profit the root goal of every company on earth when survival could be achieved at day 1? why is greed, lust, temptation, and violence investigated by art and media? Why is it a topic of conversation if it’s supposed to be so ‘normal’ to this reality? What are you seeing and why are you seeing it? What is a teacher? What does he teach? What is a preacher? What does he preach? What is the difference? Something exists beyond your view and it’s the living God, implied wherever you look the non dual state is a dead end and offers no relief

I'm now following in the same path as egoless, a person who has 'been there and done that', so to speak actualized.org has been a necessary phase in my life but at some point you are hit with the reality that there is such a thing as free will. ive found myself being okay with worshipping higher entities and satanic forces. no more of this! whether or not you recognise the truth in this lifetime, you are making your decision id like to thank leo for his help in bringing me to where I am now. But the clock is ticking and time waits for no man...

I’d say try to pinpoint where they are in spiral dynamics, then use linguistic symbols that can be understood by their particular stage

Thank you!

Egoless....I have been reading your activity and previous posts for the past few weeks and was surprised that you came back I am also being called back to the Christian, personal God. I feel like he is allowing me to see the ‘dead end’ nature of enlightened states how do I reverse the non dual state? Prayer?

Get ready because that bliss is going to end and you are going to be left with an expanded consciousness which is a double edged sword and must be respected

I wholeheartedly agree that enlightenment isn’t for everyone. I suspect that’s why not everyone pursues enlightenment ?

Listen again. What Sadhguru has said does not imply that you have to move out at that age. Only that the relationship is different

Can you explain the rationale behind this?

yep, everything is a symbol for Being that indefinable essence. the great paradox and yet all these ruminations are meaningless

This thread is nothing more than an attempt to malevolently sear the minds of mentally fragile or unstable people who are browsing this forum. I think it should be locked or deleted

going off what windintheleaf said, creativity is a part of being shinzen young made an interesting video about 'AUTOTHINK', which is essentially opening your mind up to infinite intelligence (what he calls a 'global unfixated state') through mindfulness it can be applied for creativity, but im not sure if its the best method for certain kinds of art which may require more than simply capturing insights from infinite intelligence (e.g. art involving some kind of physical action)

im also very interested in an answer to this

i love ian connor! i had to do a double take couldnt believe i was seeing a thread on ian connor on this kind of forum haha but yeah. ian has been highly influential in hip hop but he has some infamy with women. i feel like he is a massive narcissist, which would make sense given his ability to effortlessly run circles around this generation

yes!! my last insight from meditation was literally that ive barely seen the tip of the tip of the iceberg of whats possible im so glad im on this path
